Hoda, Stock Card's Founder and CEO, invited Dr. Alex Koh from the Family Investments YouTube channel to dig deep into the question and research Fastly's stock.

Up! portfolio and in this episode of Renegade Investors podcast, he lays out a detailed plan about how he is going to retire early and live off of his investments, and how you can do it too!
Can it be it done? And, can the stock market get you there?

After we published part 1 of the two-part podcast episode about whether to invest in pot stocks or not, Mark Bernberg launched The Green Fund on Stock Card's portfolio Store. Since then, the market has decided to test our intelligent ways of investing! Most of our picks in the portfolio are a bit down due to a variety of reasons, none indicating any changes in the future market potential. That's why in this second part of my conversation with The Green Fund portfolio publisher, we dug deep into a few practical ways of evaluating pot stocks and we discussed how to create a diversified portfolio of cannabis stocks.
If you haven't listened to part one of this series, make sure to listen to it before listening to the second part.

We are taking a breather from the tech IPOs hype and exploring whether India is the new China. The Indian economy and the stock market has grown faster than the U.S. and China. Should you consider investing in Indian companies? India is an excellent mix of new, young companies that are creating the latest technology-driven products and old, large, stable ones that have been in business for several decades. The new startups, springing up in all the major cities, are driven by an ambition to build innovative, unique and future-defining products using modern technology and atypical business models. Stable companies are the foundation of India's economy and have steady operations. However, the Indian stock market is not as much talked about in the U.S. and mostly out of the sights of the U.S. investors. In today's episode of the Renegade Investors podcast, we invite Stock Card's Senior Financial Analyst and the Portfolio Publisher of the Emerging India portfolio on our Portfolio Store to discuss the similarities between India and China. Some of the companies we discussed are Infosys (Ticker INFY), HDFC Bank (HDB), Dr Reddy's (RDY) and Larsen & Toubro (LTOUF), MakeMyTrip (MMYT) and YatraOnline (YTRA).

Have you ever listened to Lyft drivers' stories on Pick Me Up podcast show, sponsored by Lyft? Those stories are beautifully told and are truly inspirational. However, since a few days ago, there has been a bigger Lyft story that has me and potentially another 60 million stock market investors in the U.S. wishing to be a Lyft driver. You ask, why?
Lyft, Inc. has just filed its S1 documentation with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission to go public on Nasdaq stock exchange in 2019. Lyft drivers, assuming that they have completed at least 10K rides with Lyft are going to get a slight bump in their net worth, because as you will hear in the latest episode of our Renegade Investors podcast show, Lyft drivers are entitled to a nice going-public bonus and have a chance to use that bonus to invest in Lyft's shares before the rest of us. While Lyft drivers are considering to become investors in Lyft, you and I, on the other hand, won't be able to complete 10K drives anytime soon. But, we may still decide to become an investor in Lyft when it goes public soon. The question is, should we?

Passive index fund investing is arguably the most well-accepted wisdom of modern day finance. No one is smart enough to buy low and sell high consistently. And, all you need is to believe in capitalism and put your money in an index fund that is representing the overall market, and that's the winning formula.
That's the proven formula of wealth. Or, is it?
Borrowing some wisdom from the nutrition and health industry, some times things that are deemed to be not so good for you now were once considered healthy. Sugar was once considered a medicine, and we now have started a war against it.
Can passive index fund investing be the new Sugar?

The first time I heard NVIDIA's CEO saying that Moore's Law is dead, I was confused! How can Moore's Law be Dead? How is it possible that we can imagine a future with chips and semiconductors in everything we own and use, from the packaging of the food we eat to the clothing we wear? And, at the same time, say Moore's Law is dead. More importantly, if Moore's Law is dead, does it mean Semiconductor stocks and companies are dead too? As an investor, how can we stop mourning the death of Moore's law and instead celebrate it? Or, the question we'd want to answer is how do we invest in the semiconductor sector in the post-Moore's Law era?
We are going to hear from a well-known physicist, Nvidia CEO, Xilinx CEO, AMD's CTO and even Alphabet's chairman and dig deep into the technology that is emerging to continue to increase computation speed, and of course, we do all that in order to discover companies and stocks that are leading the post Moore's Law era and maybe are good additions to our investment portfolios.
Moore's Law can be dead, but the investing party must go on!

What do Apple and IBM have in common? Well, in the past few years, the media is beating a new drum roll. It's not so much about IBM. Instead, it is about how Apple - once an arch enemy of IBM - is now morphing into a modern-day IBM. Considering the recent disappointing iPhone sales and the lack of any significant innovation by Apple in the past years, is it fair to assume that Apple is the new IBM and is destined for the same fate? We are going to hear what Tim Cook had to say, explore Warren Buffett's point of view on both companies and dig deep into the state of affairs at IBM of 2013 vs. Apple of 2019.

Beyond Meat filled its S1 Documentation in November of 2018, which means the company is getting ready for going public soon. Typically, when it's a new IPO, we hold off on it. There is no rush to invest in an IPO for several reasons including the fact that most IPOs get hyped up at the beginning to give the company a chance to raise as much money as possible. But, Beyond Meat maybe an exception to such rule. In this episode of Renegade Investors podcast, we explore whether or not you should invest in Beyond Meat when it goes public. We will hear from the founder and CEO of the company. We also dig deep into the S1 document and other resources to assess whether the company is worthy of a spot in our long-term portfolios.
