This Week on TRB

Posted by

The pod this weekend is absolute fire – I had my pal Peter Boockvar on to talk about manias in the stock market and the investment case for silver.

I also began Black (Financial) History month, which I will be doing on the podcast throughout the month of February, highlighting some important stories about wealth, economics and the African American experience. I’m learning a lot in my research in order to interview all these authors and historians. This week my guest is Shane White, author of The Prince of Darkness, which chronicles the life and times of Wall Street’s first black millionaire. You can listen below or on your favorite podcast app (find it here). 

I spent a lot of the past week trying to save people from blowing themselves up in the meme stocks. You can read it in the links below. Hopefully some people listened to me before the complete meltdown we witnessed as GameStop went from $33 billion in market cap to $4 billion over the course of 7 days. 

Check me out on MSNBC speaking to the general public with Stephanie Ruhle: 

And here I am on my favorite comedy show with Desus & Mero from last Sunday night:
