In this recurring segment, Jason and Jeff let an AI randomly select six stocks from their personal portfolios for a rapid-fire review. The hosts deliver a one-sentence thesis, a bear case, and a final "buy or pass" verdict for Arista Networks, Ferrari, Rocket Lab, Alphabet, Mercado Libre, and Starbucks. They debate the risks of AI slowing down for Arista and Alphabet, weigh Ferrari's massive operating margins against its valuation, explore Rocket Lab's upcoming Neutron launch, and discuss whether Starbucks can reclaim its former glory.
