24 Feb 2025
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.

Welcome to Prof G Markets. So Scott is still away. He's still on the slopes. We're beginning to think he's quite quitting, but we're not too worried about that because today we have one of our favorite guests on the show. You've heard him before. We have in the studio, the one and only downtown Josh Brown. Josh, thank you so much for joining me.
I will be doing my best Scott impression. You'll tell me after how it went. I can't wait to see it. Where are you? You're not in your usual studio.
I am in Naples, Florida, which is Chicago's version of, I guess, Southeastern Florida. So this is Gulf Coast. Western Florida, and I love it here. I've never been before. We're seeing wealth management clients and colleagues, and we're doing a live version of our podcast tonight in town. So it's exciting.
