2023’s Big Finish: Where do we Stand? Is this another 2021? What makes sense?

Hey! We're back! It's been a while, but with 2023 finishing in such a one-direction flourish, we wanted to pick up the mic again. Akram and Daniel talk about what to make of the market's triumphal 2023. We cover the overall vibes in the market, but also get into the weeds on stocks like Nvidia, Micron, Docusign, Zoom, and even Alteryx and Roku, as well as a few older names.

The plan is to publish more in the year ahead. Hold us to it, and enjoy this episode.
