Description
Micron is at all-time highs with earnings after the close—so Tom and Scott get into how they're positioned, why the wheel strategy isn't the move here, and what the real risk-reward looks like when a stock has already rallied $200 from year-end. Then a couple asks what to do with $487K in home sale proceeds, and Tom explains exactly how he'd break it down using an AI-powered agentic portfolio tool—and why that's a hundred times better than any legacy advisor. The conversation opens up into which finance jobs AI is about to hollow out, why pre-clearing trades at big banks is a relic that needs to die, and what tokenized stocks actually mean for day traders. Callers weigh in on selling puts by delta, trader networking, and whether farmland can ever be tokenized.

Tom Sosnoff and Scott Sheridan built two of the most important retail trading platforms ever—thinkorswim and tastytrade—and they've watched the financial industry resist change at every turn. Right now, agentic AI is doing to portfolio construction what the internet did to information access: making it available to everyone, not just people with expensive advisors or institutional connections. At the same time, the PDT rule is finally on its way out, tokenization is inching toward the derivative space, and finance jobs that once required armies of analysts are quietly disappearing. This episode sits at the intersection of all of it—practical trade mechanics, the real future of investing technology, and what it means for anyone trying to build wealth without a six-figure head start.
