Motley Fool Hidden Gems Investing

This was the first earnings report for Apple under new CEO John Ternus. Despite the leadership change, there were a lot of similar themes to the time of CEO Tim Cook: supply chain challenges and what to do with all that extra cash. Matt, Lou, and Tyler take a look at Apple’s earnings under new leadership and speculate what they should do with that excess cash. Plus, Shopify and Palantir’s earnings misses, SpaceX acquisition rumors, and a shakeup among oil refineries.

A record number of CEOs have departed for two years running — and it's not because they lacked intelligence or experience. It's because the map they were using became outdated overnight.

Motley Fool analyst Rachel Warren talks with Cornelia Choe — international leadership expert, former Morgan Stanley private equity investor, and co-author of The Panoramic Leader — about the hidden warning signs that a management team is operating on autopilot, the three questions she uses to immediately assess whether leadership is truly on top of what's happening, and why in a world where AI has commoditized knowledge, the executives who can see around corners will be the ones worth betting on.

Host: Rachel Warren

Guest: Cornelia Choe

Producers: Bart Shannon, Lauren Budabin
