Prof G Markets: Is Breaking Up Intel The Right Move? + The New Gold Rush

Follow Prof G Markets: Apple Podcasts Spotify  Ed and Josh Brown, co-founder and CEO of Ritholtz Wealth Management, open the show by discussing January’s housing starts data, X’s latest funding round, and the growing wave of companies emulating MicroStrategy’s approach to bitcoin. Then Josh unpacks the potential breakup of Intel. He breaks down how Intel’s leadership struggles led to its decline and explains why having a true visionary at the helm is crucial for a chip company. Josh and Ed also break down gold’s record-breaking surge and explain why banks are rushing to fly the commodity into the U.S. Ed questions whether gold is really a smart investment, while Josh explains why owning it outright might not be as valuable as people think.
