Although I am more of a "get your asset allocation right and stay the course" kinda guy, I really enjoyed this guest. He gives a lot of food for thought.
Same. I'm of the Warren Buffet camp--don't buy something unless you are comfortable holding it for 10+ years. If you are buying good companies who have large moats and that you understand, and are investing in them at a great price, then you should be golden.
Just saw your recent interview with Tom prior to this, two of the best episodes I have seen on the market this year. I really appreciate Tom sharing his thought processes as well as his long term outlook. Great interview Josh.
Thanks Josh! You’re my favorite on the Halftime Report, I appreciate your contribution to this entity called “The Financial Market” Idealist investors/traders honor your thin filter and your insights that can morph into instructions. Respect ✊🏾
Great video indeed,Josh. You guys discussed indicators and touched on recession talk. Since this video was done pre covid, it would be interesting to see how Toms’s thoughts have changed now, if at all?
Man Josh! You guys ROCK! Tom has been derided so much when the markets start teetering, like in late ‘18, but then everyone jumps onto the bandwagon after. I do believe the FED repos are causing our current October/November Bull Run but I see 2020 as being a pivotal year for equities. Super excited for what the future holds!
I never even considered how demographics play into the market like this. Seems so obvious and makes a lot of sense! I heard Cramer give the same sentiment about how 2021 would be a big bull year because and cited these demographics and the awakening of the retail investor and it's great to hear that the data that backs his point of view up.
Hey josh. Love your channel. Not gonna lie, I don’t quite understand everything you’re talking about but I’m learning a lot thanks to you. Much appreciated
Tom Lee, people who want recessions are the ones who didn't get long since 2010. They have been in cash for so long, they NEED a recession. With all due respect to those recession-needy people, don't bet against americans.
Great interview as always! You guys just deliver quality, Josh! Whenever I see Tom Lee in interviews I end up raising my eye brow. 🤨 Great great insights from you both.
Thanks for this interview! Tom, you really provide some gold there! Simple indicators that are easy to follow and I appreciate to see a contrarian. Just one point wasn't discussed. What about the high SP500 level in terms of PE ratios and in terms of the "Buffet indicator" of market cap to GDP ratio. While the US might not fall into an outright recession, doesn't the US equity market seem overvalued taking these two indicators into consideration?
Great, really great. Both of you are my favs who I always listen to, and I belong to Lee's Fundstrat FSInsight. In this interview you both kept the discussion at a level one can understand , most of it. It is greatly appreciated!! Tremendous help for me at 62 years old trying to get finances better organized at a critical time in my life. Fantastic!!
He is usually on cnbc. And apparently recently ha has become a CNBC contributor. He has said many times, I know it’s hard for anyone to believe, but S&P will hit 3400 within 4 months, it was around 2500 then, and of course it did hit that number, then a few times he repeated saying, we will hit 4200-4400 by the summer. It looks like he was right again and we might get there too.
JB ... You have to do a follow-up with Tom Lee on this. His his take on China altered post COVID? Love his indicators. Can't believe I'm just finding this interview!
Enjoy all your videos Josh, but especially like the discussions with researchers, strategists and fellow investors. Hearing different ideas and thought processes is educational. I like hearing ideas, especially when I don't necessarily agree. Food for thought and I'm a big fan of food. As an example, 'China might be Japan in 20 years'. Hmmm... BTW... The little chuckle at the 14:30 was very appropriate. Could there be more layers to that analysis...
Today, i am using my credit card exclusively for all purchases compared to purchases when i was younger (in the 30-50 age range). This change was primarily due to the incentives that credit card companies are providing today. How will this change in spending habits for all credit card consumers skew the research used to predict peaks?
@17:15 Tom's "Center For Gravity Of Growth" comments, relative to China... Given the impact and subsequent fall-out of Covid over the last 24 months, curious as to how this may still play out. Especially given the recent Evergrande news relative to our own challenges here in the U.S. I like Tom's comments regarding (transferral of wealth) to millennials, and home ownership as a driver for growth... Then again, how much can we really count on the continued or expected growth rate of net new homeownership?
Container volumes at the ports of Los Angeles & Long Beach are very low right now compared to years past, housing rents are too high & unaffordable. gas prices are to expensive in CA as well. Things may be looking good on Wall Street, not so great on main street
Middle class is dying...who is going to buy stuff to keep this economy moving? I can't afford a median priced house ($600K) and new vehicles are $40-60K now. Who can afford this stuff? Unemployment and housing prices are inversely correlated - unemployment is at a 60 year low... I say a crap storm is brewing for US assets...
Its 2022, and Tom Lee was spot on. I had listened to Ray Dalio who was way off. Tom, do you put much or any weight to debt cycles and the economic machine?
Ignoring the "false" yield curve inversion of 1998, if you look at the major substantial inversions (to -50bps or more) of the last 20 years i.e. Aug 2000, Nov 2006 (and now Aug 2019), the stock market PEAKED within +/- a handful of months either side of that (i.e. so we have AT MOST another month or two maximum if we have not peaked already) and then the stock market subsequently FELL for a period of at least 18-24 months by at least 40%-60% i.e. a CRASH as the yield curve re-steepend over a period of 2-4 years following the trough to +350bps. We troughed in August in the yield curve at -50bps....we have already steepened back to +40bps in the space of 2-3 months.Over the next 2 years or so that will go back to the top of the range of +350bps and the stock market is going to lose at least 40% of its value if not a lot more. You guys are just PERMABULL charlatans and woe betide those following your "advice"
Josh, Tom, Great video. Question for you: Should you not include the buyback yield combined with the equity yield when comparing it to the spread of Junk Bonds and treasuries. S&P 500 dividend yield is 1.81%, but the buyback and dividend yield is closer to 6%. That would be greater than spread and be a negative signal for equity.
I'm looking at the AAII survey, and Tom mentioned -20% Bulls less Bears.. All I see is the sentiment votes bar chart and the Bull Bear spread. Was he referring to one of these, or something else? And what is the -20% comparing to? Thanks!
This video is the most valuable 20 minutes any investor should watch. Very grateful. Thank you.
Wow, high praise, thanks for watching!
10 months later I see this interview (with the pandemic in between) and he made the right calls... impressive!! 🙌🏻
Tks Josh
When Tom Lee talks I listen.
Please get Tom back on the show! Holds up as one of the best interviews on the Compound
Thanks, that would be fun, Tom is great!
Tom Lee is a brilliant guy. He’s also not afraid to make a market call. A rare combination.
hes also always wrong. very talented
@@other2718 how
you can tell someone knows how to think if their argument is original, facts based, and unemotional. Tom Lee's got it.
What a great conversation! To get the right answers you have to ask the right questions great job by Josh!
This is great to get some more detailed thoughts from Tom than 30 second to 2 minute snippets on cnbc
This is one of the most thought provoking videos I’ve seen out of thousands in the last year.
i did not know how good he is until today

What an interesting conversation about population aging. I now understand the basis of Tom's optimism on the market.
Loved this one Josh, Tom is a favorite bull. Keep the videos coming!
Thanks Parker! Tom is great. Thank you for the support.
Eh. Tom predicted Bitcoin going to $25,000 last year :/

I gotta rewatch this at 1/2 speed and take some notes. This is pure gold, fantastic conversation
Thanks Henry, Tom is great.

I do believe the FED repos are causing our current October/November Bull Run but I see 2020 as being a pivotal year for equities. Super excited for what the future holds!
I love how instead of just stats and chart technicals, Tom focuses on the behavioral forces behind the market. Very critical but often overlooked.
most mind blowing interview of all time
I never even considered how demographics play into the market like this. Seems so obvious and makes a lot of sense! I heard Cramer give the same sentiment about how 2021 would be a big bull year because and cited these demographics and the awakening of the retail investor and it's great to hear that the data that backs his point of view up.
Probably the most valuable UA-cam video I've seen in a while. Props.
Wow, thank you for the feedback. Glad you enjoyed and share with someone who might also enjoy!
Then you haven't seen Tom Lee's bitcoin speeches lol...
Tom is truly the man and I love his insight on markets! Research always WINS!
Two very straight forward smart dudes ! I thoroughly thoroughly enjoyed this vid guys !
Smart never gets old Thanks !!!
Still rewatching in Dec 2021!
Your podcas/tcontent is quickly becoming my new flavor of the month due to the guest and substance of the conversation! Keep it coming josh !
FANTASTIC VIDEO...AS IMPRESSIVE AS TOM WAS DOWNTOWNS INTERVIEW STYLE AND QUESTIONING WAS EQUALLY AS IMPRESSIVE...GOOD WORK GENTS...
My favourite video on this channel. Tom Lee is a pleasure to listen to. Thanks, Josh!
Hey josh. Love your channel. Not gonna lie, I don’t quite understand everything you’re talking about but I’m learning a lot thanks to you. Much appreciated
Keep grinding bro.
I feel positive about the market every time after I listen to Tom.
fascinating insights, we need an updated version with Tom Lee
Tom Lee is the best and Josh does a terrific job with the interview
Two of the best investors in one show, love it!❤
This conversation is a gift equivalent to 6 nines level pure gold...
Thank you Josh, appreciate you efforts to create an captivating interview with a wise man. 👍🏼
Great interview Josh! This is timeless info from Tom Lee. Thanks for making it happen!
Tom Lee, people who want recessions are the ones who didn't get long since 2010. They have been in cash for so long, they NEED a recession. With all due respect to those recession-needy people, don't bet against americans.
Exactly, tons of people have been long cash since 2015 and they're BEGGING for another great recession.
Great interview as always! You guys just deliver quality, Josh!
Whenever I see Tom Lee in interviews I end up raising my eye brow. 🤨 Great great insights from you both.
These deeper dives are very helpful. Great job!
Thanks Rich! Too much to cover in a short or predetermined amount of time. Glad you enjoyed and found useful.
Demography is a true leading indicator and it’s proving correct as we speak. Well done Tom & Josh.
China being the next Japan is not an unrealistic scenario. Great stuff as always. Thanks so much for providing this content for the plebes!

1. OK, why didn't YT push this video to me earlier? I wish I could have watched it earlier.
2. Tom and Josh are 2 of the best. Thanks.

Best two guys on cnbc hands down
This is great, always a pleasure to listen to Tom's. Thank you.
Outstanding session
My question is does the AI software that executes most trades see the markets the same way.
Very good interview. I watch Tom on Fast Money and like his calls. Just never realized how much thought and work go into his calls.
Tom Lee, excellent commentary. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it, Steve!
Really, really on-the-Mark with this vid, Josh. A bit of sanity. So appreciated & thnx to Mr Lee for explaining it.
Excellent guest and interview, Josh. I will reference and refer this video several times.
This was great. Clicked on it as background, stayed glued thru the whole thing.
Great insights from Mr. Lee! And great questions too.
JB ... You have to do a follow-up with Tom Lee on this. His his take on China altered post COVID?
Love his indicators. Can't believe I'm just finding this interview!

Omg! Josh is the best at translating complex concepts. and plain speaking finance.
Lee is a master at finding correlations with no causation.
Great interview and Tom Lee is really knowledgeable. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
THIS WAS WAYYYY TOOOO SHORT.
DUDE. YESSS
Impressed by both parties, not in the context of things being bullish (or not), but it appears to be insightful research.

I can not believe how good this is. AND free… incredible
Fantastic interview.
The two greatest market geniuses together.
Container volumes at the ports of Los Angeles & Long Beach are very low right now compared to years past, housing rents are too high & unaffordable. gas prices are to expensive in CA as well.

SF is even more unaffordable...but I get what you're saying as I used to live in westside LA
Middle class is dying...who is going to buy stuff to keep this economy moving? I can't afford a median priced house ($600K) and new vehicles are $40-60K now. Who can afford this stuff?

Best one yet. Great cadence and solid questions.
Thank you Tom!
Oh yea. he nailed it.
first video i watch on this channel, Josh you are one impressive interviewer . Subscribed and looking forward to new content 👍
The two best imo!
he is really good.!! just watched it now.

How do his systems work in a completely manipulated market? He does know that the Federal Reserve is manipulating all aspects of the market right?
No I really don’t think he knows that good thing you left a comment he’ll probably read it!!
You mean we're in a rigged market that's been bullish for 10 years and you've been shorting since 2008
Yield curve inverted in 2019 and recession happened 12 months out so it was not a wrong signal
You need to bring him back for an update.
Really good stuff. Thanks
Thank YOU for the watch and support.
Invaluable... AND they use the old Kool G Rap sample for their theme 🤙🏽
Haha nice catch!
