In this clip from Market Mondays, Rashad Bilal and Ian Dunlap dive deep into the dramatic developments surrounding OpenAI. They tackle the recent lawsuit against the company, growing questions about leadership, and the fierce competition from major players like Google’s Gemini, Anthropic, and Meta. Rashad Bilal highlights the risks developers face with proprietary information uploaded to OpenAI, pointing out unsettling claims that some product outputs mirror confidential data. He discusses how Elon Musk's ongoing legal battle with OpenAI underscores wider issues, including shifting sentiment towards CEO Sam Altman and Microsoft’s strategic maneuvers—like moving Azure clients to other large language models. Ian Dunlap digs into OpenAI’s financial challenges. Even with an impressive $20 billion in revenue, their high spending has kept them unprofitable, prompting the unexpected introduction of ads on ChatGPT. Ian explains how competitors, like Google’s Gemini, are leveraging OpenAI’s struggles to strengthen their own platforms by pledging never to run ads. The conversation uncovers how OpenAI’s support network—from Microsoft, Oracle, and Nvidia to SoftBank and Broadcom—remains strong, but not unshakeable. Both Rashad and Ian emphasize that erratic leadership and mounting negative press could erode investor confidence and accelerate an exodus to rival platforms, especially as Anthropic nears a public offering and gains customers like Microsoft. The hosts also touch on concerning rumors emanating from San Francisco about the origins of OpenAI and the transition from nonprofit to for-profit status. They suggest leaders need composure and credibility to succeed at the helm of a company driving the future of artificial intelligence. Join Market Mondays as Rashad Bilal and Ian Dunlap break down the high-stakes battle for AI supremacy, exploring OpenAI’s opportunities and challenges—and what this means for the future of tech. *Don’t forget to like & subscribe for more insights on business, investing, and tech!* #OpenAI #MarketMondays #ArtificialIntelligence #TechNews #SamAltman #Microsoft #Anthropic #Gemini #ElonMusk #Nvidia #IanDunlap #RashadBilal #AIWars #BusinessInsights

In this Market Mondays clip, join Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings as they break down the outlook for gold, silver, and other precious metals heading into 2026. The trio dives deep into why gold and silver are hitting historic highs, forecasting where prices could peak, and what investors need to watch out for in these turbulent times.
Ian analyzes the connection between precious metals, economic threats, and historic moments such as the pre-Covid era, the European debt crisis, and the 2008 crash. He projects that in a worst-case scenario, gold could reach $5,480 an ounce, with silver potentially soaring to $153 or even $1,054. The discussion examines how economic instability, geopolitical tension, and uncertain leadership continue to drive investors to safer assets.
Troy points out that major banks and analysts, like J.P. Morgan and HSBC, have gold targets of $5,000 an ounce by Q4 of 2026, emphasizing that supply chain issues, instability, and a weakening dollar are fueling these bullish predictions. He recalls Robert Kiyosaki's early advocacy for silver and notes how commodities often thrive during times of global uncertainty.
Rashad provides context on the U.S. national debt’s rapid growth and its impact on dollar value, highlighting how increased government spending under recent administrations contributes to the ongoing bull market for stores of value like gold, silver, and even Bitcoin. He relays insight from Mike Novogratz, who forecasts a gold price of $10,000 if spending continues at its current pace.
Together, the Market Mondays team discusses the fading confidence in American economic leadership and traditional finance, how corporate profits are consolidating into a handful of companies, and why market highs aren’t telling the full story about the broader economy. They also touch on the potential for Bitcoin and other digital assets as additional stores of value, and tease upcoming conversations around platinum, copper, and rare earth elements.

In this candid Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal, Troy Millings, and Ian Dunlap dive into how their investing beliefs have evolved, sharing real-life shifts in perspective that can help every investor sharpen their game. Troy Millings kicks off by explaining why he’s had a change of heart about stocks priced under $25—especially in changing political and economic environments. While he was once wary of these "cheaper" stocks, Troy now sees their potential for major short-term gains, emphasizing that swing trades (rather than long holds) may be the best strategy in certain market climates. Ian Dunlap gets honest about his long-held conviction that Disney could dethrone Netflix as the top streaming giant. Drawing on years of data, updates on Disney’s streaming and ESPN efforts, and a comparison to the S&P’s performance, Ian reveals why he no longer sees Disney as a challenger to Netflix’s crown and questions whether Disney should have even entered the streaming wars. Rashad Bilal provides a valuable lesson for new and experienced investors alike, unpacking the popular advice to "invest in what you use and know." Instead, Rashad suggests going a step further: invest in companies the world *needs*—not just the ones you personally love. Whether it's Apple, semiconductor giants, or companies essential to healthcare, Rashad highlights why focusing on necessity over personal preference can lead to stronger investing outcomes. Together, Rashad, Troy, and Ian bring humor, honesty, and practical wisdom—showing that the best strategies often come from re-examining old beliefs and staying open to new ideas. *Don’t miss out on these key insights:*
