About this listen

In this episode of Stock Talk, Aman dives into what he calls the new era of cringe investing. Core principles that once guided smart capital allocation—political stability, rule of law, free markets—are being challenged, distorted, and increasingly normalized in ways that should unsettle investors. Aman explores how business leaders, Wall Street, and even the media are rationalizing behaviors that undermine capitalism: CEOs bending the knee to political pressure, tariffs reframed as “not so bad,” and markets shrugging off deteriorating fundamentals while hitting record highs. Through examples ranging from podcast discussions with JP Morgan’s Michael Cembalest to Tim Cook’s golden tribute and Nvidia’s quiet lobbying, Aman illustrates how companies and investors are adapting to a warped landscape. The result? Rising markets, profitable portfolios—and an uncomfortable feeling that wealth creation is being replaced by survival tactics. Listen in to understand why investing feels increasingly cringe.
