  Speaker 1: Felix here and welcome to this pre-market live stream from unusual surroundings.

  Speaker 1: Today, while mainstream media is trying to scare you out of your stocks with all the fear and horror, I want to walk you through the five reasons why I am insanely British.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: I'll show you the opportunities, I'll answer your questions and then, why am I in this weird surrounding, hip studio?
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Surrounding hip studio?
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: Because we're doing the biggest live masterclass we've ever done.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Seven thousand of you almost have signed up.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: I'm traveling here.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: I'm traveling here.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Lots of echo.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Let's see if we can fix that.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Let's see if we can fix that.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Let's see if we can fix that.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: Okay, we've got two mics on.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: That probably helps, right?
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Does that do the trick?
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: I think that will probably do the trick.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: So, okay, I think we're probably okay.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Let me know if it's okay.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: Now, that should be better.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Got a mic in the laptop exactly.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: I think there was another one.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, is it better?
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Is it better?
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, Okay, much better.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Okay, brilliant, all right, thanks for letting me know, guys.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: And yes, so we're literally going to go live in one hour here.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Thanks, guys, for letting me know.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: And I wanted to make sure, as I'm traveling, that I have decent audio here.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: In Wi-Fi Audio not so much.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: So that's why I'm in this little podcast here in when am I?
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Does anybody know where I am yet?
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Guess where I am in the chat, and I'll confirm it to you.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: I'll give it away and give away the secret where I've been hiding it out here.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: So let me show you straight away, then.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: What has us optimistic.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: But before we do, let me show you what a lot of people been saying would be the end of the world.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: So, in august last year, japan raised their interest rates, and if you saw what happened there, do you remember what happened when that happened?
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Let me?
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Let me show you in.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Uh, let me show you here.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: So what?
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: What happened in August?
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Well, the market dropped something like 5%.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Greenland yes, I'm here on Trump's behalf to buy Greenland.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: In August last year, the S&P did a very nice thing.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Where was it?
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Where was it?
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: It's hard to tell, isn't it, when everything goes up so much?
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: It's hard to tell, isn't it, when everything goes up so much?
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: There it was this.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this was it.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: So this was the last Japan dip.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Here we went down 5%, which is pretty significant.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: So Japan did the unthinkable they raised interest rates again yesterday and therefore everybody was saying, oh my God, it's the end of the world.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Buy, sell panic, buy ammunition.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Bury yourself in the back garden.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: That's probably the wisest thing to do for most people.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: And the audio is slight static.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: When you're talking, there's a buzz in the sound.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Okay, we're going to need to do something about that.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Sound's not working very well.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Okay, let me fix that for you.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Okay, give me one second, I'll fix the sound for you.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: We've come prepared, my friends, including the dodgy sound.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: There we go, and then I'm just going to switch over the audio input to our trusted usual setup here.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Is that better?
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Better, that's better.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Put a big fat smiley in the chat.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: That usually does the trick.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: This mic is tremendous.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so sounds fine.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Okay, brilliant, sounds perfect.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: You must be in Detroit.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: We're here for the ASMR.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Yes, okay, brilliant, all right, better.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Okay, thanks very much, love you for that.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: So did the market crash this morning?
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: No, of course it bloody didn't.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Nitwits are not right, are they?
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Okay, sounds good.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Lots of smileys, Brilliant.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Okay, love it.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: This is pre-market.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Apple is up, tesla is up, meta and Google is up.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Thanks guys for letting me know.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Doesn't look like much of a crash to me.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: That's it, and I'll tell you why.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: And this is important and you might want to write this stuff down.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: You might take screenshots, because very few people actually know this and people are going to try and talk you out of this with fear in the coming weeks.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: The dreaded schlurp is back.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: This is a chart that measures the optimism of you and me, the investor stock market optimism.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Here in red, and as you can see, it's gone to the moon since the Donalds got elected.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: And in black you have the increase in the S&P, but it does it with a lag.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: So what we see here is, when you get the optimism like we have right now, you'd expect the market to pick up somewhat later.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: It could be up to 12 or 18 months later, but generally speaking, it picks up a tremendous amount.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: So that's the first thing.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: The market is a piece of psychology.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: A stock chart, like any stock chart we look at, is nothing but what.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: It's the sum of what every investor out there fears and loves the most.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: That's exactly what this is.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: It's all psychology, it's all momentum.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: We're going to get into a little bit more of that in an hour If you'd want to join me for the live masterclass link is still down below.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: 6,841 of you have signed up there.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Can you see?
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: That Isn't that tremendous.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: I love that.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: So many of you actually want to learn here.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: I'm very, very, very happy about that, insanely happy about that.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: So why then?
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: What is the second reason?
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Now we're bullish?
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: I promised you five, didn't I?
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: I promised you five, yes, and one is particularly specific to banking stocks, sofi and so on.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: What's this little chart here?
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: It might help if it had a title the shorts are running for the hills.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: So this is basically shorting in the market and, as you can see, the shorts are collapsing.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: They're running for the hills.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: We're at the lowest level.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Well, the data goes back to 2017.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: We are below that level very significantly.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Why is that?
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Because everybody is just insanely optimistic, so everybody thinks it's going to go up, right, it's very, very simple.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: All hail the Donald.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, completely agree with you on that.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Donald is doing well.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: He's doing a good job.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: And then I mentioned this yesterday Buybacks.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: The largest buyer of stocks are buybacks.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Companies themselves are the biggest buyers of stocks out there by far.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: It's not the funds, it's not the pension funds, it's not you and me, it's not Nancy Pelosi.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Hard to believe.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: I know it is purely companies buying their own stocks.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: And when do they start buying?
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: I tell you here on the chart they start buying on the 24th.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Today is the 24th that they start buying again today.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: It'll accelerate during next week and probably the week after, but the money is starting to pour in as well.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: This is the webinar.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: No, my friend, the webinar starts in 52 minutes.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: You would have gotten a Zoom link in your inbox.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Look for that, my friend.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: What's reason?
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Numero tres, then.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: This is Brad.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: He's a great guy.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: We actually had him on the channel before.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: He tweeted something rather useful, and that is that the SEC has reversed something rather obscure that nobody out there ever understood.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: It's called SAB121, but they keep the aliens.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Basically, it made it very hard for banks to have crypto on their balance sheet.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: So it basically says if you own crypto, we think it's a liability.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Therefore, you need to have more money.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: Therefore, no banks would hold crypto.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: Very, very simple, right?
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: New setup.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm traveling and I'm doing a masterclass for 7,000 of you in an hour, so I wanted to make sure we had a very good connection here, which is why I went to this podcast studio here in Dubai, which is where I am right now, which is a really really cool place.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: I've been here now I came for three days.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Two weeks later, I'm still here, but we're about to leave, jimmy.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: You're, of course, spot on Very, very pleasant weather, I must say, very, very kind of cool and refreshing and sunny, and we've been really enjoying ourselves looking around.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: So this is it.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: This is the announcement, and this is a much bigger deal than it looks.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: It says they've rescinded this cryptocurrency regulation 122.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: So it's a goner.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: What does that mean?
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Banks now hold crypto.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Remember when SoFi offered crypto and then they became a bank and then they had to get rid of their crypto service?
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Sofi is going to be offering crypto again, so it's going to be very, very good for banks, but also for crypto right, it's going to be really really good.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Imagine all those banks holding crypto, making it that much easier to give access to, because you know and this is another friend of ours, amit, he wrote this crypto executive order past.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Trump said to the world yesterday that the United States is not just the AI capital of the world, but also the crypto capital of the world, and he means it.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: So very, very, very, very bullish.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: For what?
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Crypto and banks, and we have a fair few positions open on that already.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Some of the positions we have a Sophia position open which is up already 337%, which is pretty good.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: We've got I've got another bot for you some other financials that we have open.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: But, yeah, we're planning to make a lot of money out of the whole financial thing here.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: But, yeah, we're planning to make a lot of money out of the whole financial thing here.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Anybody else joining us for the webinar in 50 minutes?
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Do you want to learn what we're going to do in 2025?
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: How we pack things?
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Shall we make it around 7,000 signups?
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: That'd be tremendous, wouldn't it?
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: 7,000 people.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Let's change some lives here.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: When will SoFi go global?
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: They already have.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: You can get SoFi accounts in several countries.
