#297: What Stocks to Buy During the AI Bubble (w/ Porter Stansberry)

#297: What Stocks to Buy During the AI Bubble (w/ Porter Stansberry)

Author: MyWallSt February 5, 2026 Duration: 45:44

This week, Emmet is joined by a legend in financial publishing, Porter Stansberry. Porter is a master at recognizing and managing financial risk—and educating the public along the way. He even delivered positive returns during the 2008 financial crisis.

Porter shares his bull and bear case for America, weighing freedom of opportunity against excessive borrowing. He’s wary of U.S. Treasuries and worries the country could face a technical default similar to those in 1933 and 1971. He also outlines his views on the A.I. bubble, drawing lessons from the Dot-Com era.

Tune in to hear why Porter believes corporate spinoffs are underappreciated investments, the role of gold in your portfolio, and which psychological traits differentiate successful investors.

We wrap up with Buy, Hold, or Sell and an edition of Desert Island Stocks.
