MM # 289: Emotional Investor Lesson: Best Crypto Stock, AI Investments & Business Blueprint w/ Derrick Hayes

This week on Market Mondays we’re getting tactical and long-term: your futures trading tip of the week, the biggest mistakes younger investors make chasing fast wins, and the most important investing lessons this year reinforced. We also get personal about the mindset shifts that matter—what we used to disagree with early on, then changed our mind about later, and the questions people should be asking if they actually want to build wealth over decades (not just catch a lucky trade). Then we dive into what’s moving markets right now: Oracle as a business and investment, whether the AI narrative tied to SoftBank/OpenAI has pushed expectations too far, and what really caused Friday’s sell-off—plus whether it quietly changed market structure more than most people realize. We break down the Coinbase vs. MicroStrategy vs. IBIT debate, talk about whether we’re headed toward a real correction or just another emotional shakeout, and if the market is broadening beyond tech or setting up a head fake before leadership narrows again. We also hit the high-volatility conversations: Super Micro’s relevance in AI infrastructure, how elite traders handle ES and NQ moving in sync, and whether leveraged ETFs like NVDL/AMDL are advanced tools—or long-term portfolio destroyers in disguise. Plus: quantum computing (obvious leaders vs. sleeper names), and a real discussion on how to balance fitness, family, investing, travel, and content creation without burning out. And we’re joined by Derrick Hayes to talk about his business journey and what it really takes to scale. #MarketMondays #Investing #Stocks #FuturesTrading #DayTrading #LongTermInvesting #FinancialLiteracy #WealthBuilding #AI #Oracle #Crypto #Bitcoin #Coinbase #MicroStrategy #IBIT #ETFs #LeveragedETFs #NVDL #AMDL #TechStocks #MarketNews #TradingPsychology #RiskManagement #QuantumComputing #Entrepreneurship #DerrickHayes #EarnYourLeisure Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
