Part 5/7:
A long-time listener from New York, Philip, expresses gratitude for the host's guidance over the years. The conversation shifts to current macroeconomic factors, notably the recent rate cuts and anticipated further reductions. Philip wonders if falling mortgage rates will propel the market's "rocket company" — a reference perhaps to speculative or high-flying stocks like Fang (Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Google). The host advises caution, pointing out that the most popular trade has already been done and suggests focusing on Wells Fargo. He analyzes the bank’s valuation, implying it’s primed for growth, with a share price resting at around $20. This reflects the ongoing importance of banking stocks and their sensitivity to interest rate movements.
