Futurum Equities: The Deep End
The Deep End is a weekly stock-analysis show hosted by Shay Boloor and Brad Freeman, both of whom work under the Futurum Equities banner. Each episode takes a single company and digs into what the business actually does, what its most recent quarterly results revealed, and whether either host would buy the stock at current prices. The two often reach opposite conclusions, and that disagreement is the heart of the format. Companies are chosen 24 hours before recording so listeners can influence future coverage. New episodes arrive every Monday, and the hosts note that nothing on the show is investment advice and that they hold positions in some of the names discussed.
Episodes

The Biggest Investing Opportunity of 2027 Is Hiding in Latin America
Nubank and MercadoLibre have been stuck in mud for years, Shay says. The stock prices have not really gone anywhere, but the businesses have executed in the meantime. MercadoLibre has grown over 30% for 30 straight quarters. Nubank has 62% of Brazil's adults as customers and serves each one for about a dollar a month. The episode was recorded the week Brazil had its best market day since March 202

Meta: 'Agentic AI Is Having a ChatGPT Moment'
Meta stock was up about 40% in September, on pace for its best month in 13 years, after Muse launched three weeks before this episode. Shay says agentic AI is having a ChatGPT moment with Muse. Meta already has 3.6 billion daily active people across its apps, and Brad calls that number alone a mic drop moment.
Shay calls this Meta 2.0. The stock was always discounted under 20 times earnings becaus

Micron: 'We Are Absolutely in a Bubble'
Micron is growing revenue 350% year over year, and Brad points out that its gross margin has gone from 30% to 85% in a few years. In past downturns Apple was able to bargain that margin down below 0%. The stock still trades around five or six times earnings, because the market is still trying to figure out whether this is the greatest memory cycle ever or whether AI has changed the business for ye

SoFi: valued like tech, trades like a lender. The bottom of the cycle.
SoFi has 16 million members, more than $45 billion of deposits, and revenue growing around 30%. It is also the biggest dog in Shay's portfolio this year. His read is that the company is being valued like a tech company but still trades like a lender, so the stock moves day to day with rates, credit concerns and lending sentiment. This week the Fed raised rates for the first time in three years.
Th

Nebius (NBIS) is the software neocloud. Both hosts put it ahead of CoreWeave.
Nebius was Yandex, the Google of Russia, for 30 years. After the Russia Ukraine sanctions it sold the Russian assets for almost $3 billion in cash, kept the AI cloud, and relisted in 2024. That AI cloud is now about 98% of revenue, and short term compute is fetching over $40 million per megawatt.
Episode five was IREN, and the guys wanted the two neocloud cases side by side because a lot of people

IREN has absurd upside and absurd downside. Both hosts stepped aside.
IREN is one of the top five most polarizing companies on FinTwit, in Shay's words, and the numbers show why. Sell side consensus has revenue going from $3 billion this year to $12 billion two years out. Depreciation eats more than 80% of that revenue base, and there is no free cash flow in the estimates for at least five years.
Neoclouds combine the fanship of Bitcoin with the fanship of AI, so an

Zscaler (ZS) at 40x earnings. The put up or shut up quarter.
Cybersecurity is humming. CrowdStrike caught more than 20% in one day, Okta ran nearly 30%, and the hosts have officially graduated from SaaSpocalypse to SaaS Tapalooza. Zscaler is the name that has not reported yet, and it could have a catalytic move just like those two.
Zscaler sits in the traffic path between enterprises and the internet, checking every connection instead of trusting someone be

NVIDIA (NVDA) at 18x earnings. The seventh wonder of the market.
NVIDIA is a $5 trillion company and the stock trades at 18 times earnings. Revenue is supposed to grow 97% this quarter after six straight quarters of reacceleration. Even Jensen is out calling it the seventh wonder of the world while asking why the stock is not moving the way it should.
Shay Boloor and Brad Freeman spend the whole episode on that dislocation. The easy story is over. For two years

AppLovin (APP) fell to 15x earnings. First crack or false alarm?
For the last few years, AppLovin was a beat and raise machine. Beat the top line by 4%, guide 3% ahead, see you next quarter. It was boring in the best way. This quarter the streak broke. Revenue still grew 53%, but the company came in 1% light against its own guidance, and the stock now trades at 15 times earnings, the same multiple as The Trade Desk.
That comparison is why Shay Boloor and Brad F

CrowdStrike (CRWD) at 110x cash flow. Earnings week: NBIS, HIMS, ASTS, RKLB, CBRS
CrowdStrike (CRWD) trades at 110 times free cash flow, and the two investors who know it best split on what to do about it. Shay Boloor and Brad Freeman of Stock Market Nerd open their new weekly show with a full CrowdStrike deep dive, then preview the seven names reporting in a loaded AI earnings week.
The CrowdStrike conversation starts with the July 2024 outage: the company shut the world off f
