Oil is swinging wildly as tensions in the Strait of Hormuz escalate and Trump pushes for a deal. A $116 million crypto hack just hit cold storage wallets across 5,200 addresses. And a 25 year old "genius" fund manager just got wiped out after leveraging 40x into AI stocks, a case study in exactly what Buffett warned about decades ago.

This week Steve, Tom and Jacob break down what's actually moving markets, why leverage is the fastest way to turn a good thesis into a bad outcome, and the real maths behind compounding your money (spoiler: it's slower than you think).
