Howard is back with another mind-bending episode of Trends With Friends alongside Michael Parekh and special guest Jeff Park, Wall Street alum turned Bitwise crypto Jedi. From the radical rethinking of portfolio construction to the institutionalization of Bitcoin, Jeff unpacks how markets are being rewired in real time. The trio dives deep into the death of the 60/40 portfolio, the rise of Bitcoin treasury companies, the myth of the risk-free rate, and why every investor needs to grapple with global carry dynamics. Plus, they debate Elon’s Tesla troubles, BYD’s China dominance, why CME is booming, and how prediction markets and vibe coding are reshaping the next-gen financial playbook. If you care about capital markets, crypto, and the future of speculation as entertainment, don’t miss this one.Chapters00:00 Meet Jeff Park: From Wall Street to Crypto03:00 Radical Portfolio Theory Explained07:20 Why 60/40 Is Dead and the Global Carry Trade Lives10:45 The Degenerate Economy, Bitcoin Treasury Plays, and the New Risk Paradigm16:00 Institutionalization of Bitcoin, ETFs, and Self-Custody22:00 How Financial Engineering Could Break Bitcoin26:00 Prediction Markets, AI, and Speculation as Income31:00 BYD vs Tesla, Global Retail Flows, and Chart Breakdown37:00 Alpaca, APIs, and Building Brokerages for the World44:00 Vibe Coding, LLMs, and the Coming API ExplosionJoin Our Community! https://stocktwits.com/Sign up for our daily FREE newsletter to keep in touch with the market: https://thedailyrip.stocktwits.com/Disclaimer:All opinions expressed on this show are solely the opinions of the hosts’ and guests’ and do not reflect the opinions of Stocktwits, Inc. or its affiliates.
