Transcript
- 0:00When the war first broke out in Ukraine, we started seeing lots of special
- 0:04dividends from coal companies and fertilizer companies coming through and you know, huge return
- 0:10of capital, large dividend increases. Sort of you know, spinted my eyes
- 0:14and said, what's going on in these industries that I really don't trade in
- 0:18or follow at all. And so those events, you know, as a
- 0:22cluster from different companies, we're giving us an indication that there was something happening
- 0:26with the commodity prices. You're listening to Carrie Letz's Financial Survival Network, where

- 0:50now more than ever, and welcome you are listening to and watching the Financial
- 0:58Survival Network our host Carrie Lutz Well. AI is seemingly taking over the world.
- 1:03How you drive, how you research all these things, how you do
- 1:10your work, and now AI is taking over the investment sphere. Andrew Einhorn
- 1:18is here with us from Level Fields. Got a unique system that really helps
- 1:26turbocharge your investment results. Andrew, it's great to have you on the show.
- 1:30So cut to the chase here. What kind of returns have you been
- 1:34getting from your AI investment research? Pretty incredible. We trade off our own
- 1:40alerts pretty irregularly, though admittedly don't have as much time as I would like
- 1:45to use the system, having developed it and always working on it. But
- 1:49I think everyone has the same experience of kind turning on CNBC. We're looking
- 1:53at the stock market in the morning and seeing stocks up you know, five,
- 2:00sometimes even one hundred percent, and wondering what happened and why didn't I
- 2:05hear about it before the big move. So we're trying to solve both those
- 2:08problems, explaining what's going on and also getting people alerts before it catalyzes the
- 2:16share price over the day or six month period. And it boils down to
- 2:22the fact that the entire stock market and most of the price movements are caused
- 2:27by events positively and negatively. It could be an earnings event, or it
- 2:30could be a CEO departure from a company like Amazon. It could be a
- 2:36product launch in the case of Apple, which the trajectory was changed forever with
- 2:42the invention of the iPhone and the iPod. Before that, it could be
- 2:46a huge approval from the FTA of a new drug that's on the market,
- 2:53and likewise, on the other side, it could be a DOJ investigation that's
- 2:58saying that the company is guilty of securities fraud, that their financials are fake,
- 3:02or things of that nature for an anti trust violation. So all these
- 3:06events are really changing the kind of trajectory of a company, and so what
- 3:09our AI is doing is looking for those types of events from the company announcements
- 3:16or from the news, or from government filings and analyzing based on historical patterns
- 3:23what has typically happened in the past to give you a sort of forecast,
- 3:27so what's likely to happen in the future. And so we kind of use
- 3:30the analogy of like the weather app Right, We're going to say it's going
- 3:35to rain, there's eighty percent chance of rain. If it does rain,
- 3:38it's going to rain all day, or it's going to rain all week,
- 3:42and over here you have sunny skies and good ski conditions and that is likely
- 3:46to stay that way. We do the same thing, but we do it
- 3:47with events and to date it's been very difficult because there's you know, six
- 3:53thousand stocks on the US exchanges. Tracking every announcement, every USE filing,
- 4:00every SEC filing from all of these stocks with one person is impossible. Now
- 4:06it's not because you have AI doing this sort of heavy lifting for you.
- 4:10Doing the speed reading. It's looking at about thirty thousand documents per minute,
- 4:15and then it's identifying all the events, mapping the event to the company,
- 4:18mapping the company to the share price, giving you almost instantaneous information about what's
- 4:26happening across the entire stock market. So you, as an individual a monitor
- 4:30all these things. Really with just a click of a mouse. You set
- 4:35up your AI search where you use are kind of off the shelf versions,
- 4:41you click a button and you get alert you know when a certain type of
- 4:44event is happening that is a big catalyst, and if you want, you
- 4:46can filter that alert for just the type of investments that you make. You
- 4:50know, if you like just big tech companies, large cap with you know,
- 4:55high profit margins, you can filter it and say, you know,
- 4:58when this type of event occurs with this type of company, just let me
- 5:01know, and you get a little nudge. But how are you doing with
- 5:06Tesla, Yeah, we Tesla. It's interesting. We have a scenario on
- 5:12Tesla. It shows that the product launches are about fifty to fifty half the
- 5:15time it goes down half the time it goes up. We get a little
- 5:17flax sometimes from the users. You know, why did you put it on
- 5:20there? If you know it's eight you know, at fifty to fifty rate,
- 5:26And we say, well, so users will know that this is not
- 5:30a sure thing. Just because they're launching a new product doesn't mean they're going
- 5:32to be a success. Often it flops, and when it does go negative,
- 5:36it's usually more negative than positive and positive side. So you know,
- 5:42Tesla, if you've got a long term view, I think they'll be okay.
- 5:45They're going through a rough patch. As many EV automakers are. It's
- 5:49expensive business to be in. Their margins are still pretty good and I think
- 5:55with the return of some of the tax incentives to buy the evs, they'll
- 6:00see catalysts from that. But it's a competitive space, so you know they're
- 6:03going to have to figure out different ways to generate revenue. The charging stations
- 6:09will certainly help with that. They can execute on the cyber truck or any
- 6:13of the semi conduct semi trucks that will help boost the share price. But
- 6:17they've got to they got to get those things off the line faster, right,
- 6:21all right, So can you use the the AI system that you have
- 6:28to actually identify you know, opportunities without looking at specific stocks. Yes,
- 6:38yes you can. Building you can use it for some trend spotting. For
- 6:42example, when when the war first broke out in Ukraine, we started seeing
- 6:46lots of special dividends from coal companies and fertilizer companies coming through and you know,
- 6:53huge return of capital, large dividend increases, and sort of you know,
- 6:57splinted my eyes and said, what's going on in these industries that I
- 7:00really don't trade in or follow at all. And so those events, you
- 7:04know, as a cluster from different companies, we're giving us an indication that
- 7:09there was something happening with the commodity prices. So we took a quick look
- 7:12and saw cold prices were increasing and fertilizer prices were increasing, largely because Europeans
- 7:18didn't have natural gas coming out of Russia because Russia had cut things off,
- 7:23so they had to switch to coal. That was driving up demand for coal
- 7:27at the same time, you know a lot of certain fertilizers were coming out
- 7:30of Ukraine, Belarusts and Russia and they couldn't get out because the skies were
- 7:35blocked. So companies in the US and companies in Canada were able to then
- 7:41sell their fertilizer products like one hundred percent increase in price without doing anything different.
- 7:46That led to tons of you know, free cash that they had and
- 7:49they gave that cash away to shareholders. So you can pick out these of
- 7:54macro trends based on the company reactions at the micro level and see, you
- 8:00know, what may be happening out there in the market, but you would
- 8:03probably normally miss. You know, we see similar going on in the defense
- 8:07contracting space right now, you know where unfortunately, we're in a environment where
- 8:13there's a lot of global conflicts and if you're dealing in arms or drones,
- 8:18you're doing very well on a business side, all right. So as far
- 8:24as sectors of the market that you think are right perhaps undervalued, what are
- 8:28you seeing here? Undervalued is a little hard to find. Right now.
- 8:33The market is is I wouldn't say it's overbought, but it's strongly bought.
- 8:39You do see discrepancies and prices kind of on a go forward basis, where
- 8:43you know, companies are reporting pretty incredible earnings and sequentially you know, might
- 8:50be twenty thirty sixty percent increase. Like today reported a company called giga Cloud,
- 8:56which is matchmaking service that allows makers and manufacturers of large items like couches
- 9:07and things of that nature to not only find buyers across the world but also
- 9:13ship those items to them. And the companies undervalue, you know, assuming
- 9:18that their financials are accurate, they are you know, growing revenue a hundred
- 9:22percent, growing earnings at sixty seven percent, profit margins and ninety percent you
- 9:28know, sort of you find those little gems like that come through and we
- 9:31have a you know, a scenario that looks at kind of momentum indicators as
- 9:37well, and so stocks like that will pop up as well as you know,
- 9:41some really interesting consumer beverage companies like Celsius. You know that one coming
- 9:50through at it sold off a little bit in the aftermarket, but I think
- 9:54it's arising today because they did you know, they only need eighty percent in
- 10:00increase in profit margins and not higher, which was it's a little much,
- 10:05but the company has been growing revenue on one hundred percent year of year and
- 10:09they have a huge distribution arm deal now with PEPSI, very likely to get
- 10:13acquired I suspect by PEPSI. If they don't buy them, it would be
- 10:18a bad move on the Pepsi's behalf. But so we do see utilities kind
- 10:22of rising now and see some signals in the utilities industry that there's increased demand
- 10:28from data centers. So the important Portland utility company I think the ticker is
- 10:35POR and they just report in twenty seven percent increase in revenue, which is
- 10:43very large for a utility company, and it's because there's a lot of data
- 10:46centers. They are fueling this AI boom and they're based in Portland and so
- 10:52the energy needs are quite high. So those utility companies are making more money.
- 11:00So individuals are able to use your system here, Oh sure, Yeah,
- 11:05it's very user friendly. We tried to take out a lot of the
- 11:09difficult pieces in investing, right. So there's there's essentially three types of investing.
- 11:16You can do fundamental analysis or Warren Buffet style look for you know,
- 11:20undervalued companies, companies with a big strategic moat, and you have to understand
- 11:26how to analyze their balance sheet, analyze their income statement. That's sort of
- 11:31difficult for most people. You have technical analysis where you're not really looking at
- 11:35anything other than you know, price movements going up and down, Easier maybe
- 11:41to interpret, but highly prone to error because every time an event happens,
- 11:46it changes as a signal. And then you have event driven analysis, which
- 11:50really was not available widely for everybody until we launched our platform. It had
- 11:56really been reserved for you know, trading on news headline but mainly from sentiment
- 12:01or gut reactions, and looking at how hedge funds were doing it more statistically
- 12:09and kind of democratizing that so everybody can access. So if you walk onto
- 12:11the system as an individual user and it's only a couple hundred bucks a year,
- 12:16you can see on a daily basis, you know, ten to forty
- 12:20different event opportunities. Some of them are two to five percent gains, others
- 12:24might be you know, almost one hundred percent gains, depending upon the size
- 12:31of the event, type of the event, and so forth. So you're
- 12:33really kind of looking at almost like an interface like you would go look for
- 12:37a flight, look for different events that are moving stocks, and you can
- 12:43make short term trades, you can make longer term decisions. You'll certainly see
- 12:46a lot and learn a lot from the platform just by being able to have
- 12:50a broader view of the market and not just the price moves, but why
- 12:54those price moves are happening, what is driving them, And then once you
- 12:58learn that, you know which happens pretty quickly, you can just pick up
- 13:03a type of event and say, you know what, I don't care to
- 13:05look at all the events. I just want one type of event that I
- 13:09could trade or invest in again and again and again. Different you know,
- 13:13stock or option traders will we'll make different decisions. So, you know,
- 13:18an option trader might come in and say, I just want to make five
- 13:20ten percent a week on option contracts or fifty percent a month. A long
- 13:26term investor might come in and say, you know, I'm really interested in
- 13:30companies and transition, you know, companies that are decreasing assets, increasing profits,
- 13:37you know, focus on the bottom line. And we have a activist
- 13:39shareholder scenario where typically it's a you know, six to twelve month period of
- 13:46time after the activist comes in and tries to kind of chow costs and drive
- 13:52the share price up and drive the value up, and it's really pretty easy.
- 13:58You just invest alongside them when they come in. They're going to do
- 14:01the heavy lifting and actually change the company, and you'll benefit, you know,
- 14:05by being kind of along for the ride as an investor. So it's
- 14:09there's something for everything on the on the system, and you'll get a little
- 14:13you know, bearish or bullish indicator. We have a lot of help information
- 14:18on the platform and how to look at and interpret these types of events.
- 14:22So you know, if you're looking at different ways to make money in the
- 14:26market, or you're trying to think about a side hustle, you know,
- 14:30I would say look at level Fields, you'll certainly make back the two hundred
- 14:33dollars investment over the course of a year. You know, it only takes
- 14:37one one good trade or one good stock pick. All right, sounds good.
