Tom Sosnoff and Scott Sheridan are joined by longtime friend Tony Battista while Sol is out, and it turns into one of the show's more packed episodes. They get into how to hold your decision-making speed when market noise is at its highest, break down five concrete ways to not get wiped out on three-standard-deviation days, and share this week's Lossdog AI trades: Oracle earnings, IBIT, Japanese yen puts, and a GLD put spread. A caller wrestles with whether to put $100K all-in on Bitcoin, another wants to know exactly how long an employment gap is too long after getting laid off from commodity trading, and Tom and Scott get candid about leaving tastytrade — on their own terms. Then there's the Steve Jobs argument that changes how you think about every company you'll ever work for or invest in: the bottom line always follows the top line.

1:09:25 Is AI the next commodity bubble
The job market heading into mid-2026 hasn't recovered cleanly — layoffs across finance and tech have left a lot of professionals with employment gaps longer than they expected, and the question of when a gap starts hurting your candidacy is something hiring managers rarely answer directly. Markets are also having more three-standard-deviation days than most traders planned for, making position management less about strategy and more about survival. The debate over whether companies genuinely optimize for top-line growth or quietly slash their way to short-term margin gains is playing out in real time across corporate America, and Steve Jobs' view that the bottom line always chases the top line has never been more relevant to people deciding where to work or what to invest in. Bitcoin sitting roughly 50% off its all-time highs while gold retreats from $5,500 to under $4,200 in the same year frames the exact dilemma investors face right now: buying opportunity, or assets simply going dead?
