  • AI Expectations Hit a Fever Pitch

    AI Expectations Hit a Fever Pitch
    Jul 7 2026
    Every quarter recently, semiconductor stocks keep churning out incredible numbers. And every quarter, it seems as those companies somehow “miss expectations”. The most recent example was when Samsung Electronics reported a 1,900% increase in profits, the stock dropped so much it halted trading on the Korean composite index. Lou, Matt, and Tyler dig into the expectations game Wall Street is playing and the underlying trends still supporting it. Plus, defense companies are making moves at the NATO summit and investor questions. Have a question? Email us; podcasts@fool.com Want to take the next step in your investing journey?

  • The Man Who Survived 47 Days on a Raft Has a Lesson for Every Investor

    The Man Who Survived 47 Days on a Raft Has a Lesson for Every Investor
    Jul 5 2026
    Every market downturn will test you. Not your strategy, not your portfolio — you. And the investors who come out the other side aren't the ones who had the best picks going in. They're the ones who learned how to take a hit, stay in the game, and get smarter because of it. Motley Fool's Tom Gardner sits down with Louis Zamperini — World War II survivor, Olympic runner, and the man whose story inspired the bestselling book Unbroken — to talk about why the people who overcome the most become the hardest to beat, and why the moment everything in your portfolio drops 50 percent is actually the most important moment of your investing life.
