Degenerate Capital
Welcome to Degenerate Capital, where two amateur investors dive headfirst into the stock market without pretending to be Wall Street pros. We’re here to prove that you don’t need an MBA or a Bloomberg terminal to make smart moves—you just need curiosity, a little risk tolerance, and maybe a drink in hand. Each week, we break down big-picture events shaping the economy, micro trends impacting specific stocks and sectors, and one or two trades we think are worth exploring—whether it’s a long-term hold or a short-term gamble. This isn’t financial advice—it’s just two degens talking markets, making bets, and trying to stay ahead of the game. Investing is a gamble. Let’s make it a good one.
Episodes
We are back from our one week hiatus and sorry this one’s going to get a little political. As Trump wages war against California we discuss what this means for business and the markets. Long story short: we’re short. But there is still opportunity. Come hang and listen to us try to figure it all out.
NVDA earnings are out and they are good news for the market. Also good news - it turns out that Trump can’t do tariffs without congress so we are mere hours away from a ripping market. Join us as we get ready for what’s likely to be a great end of the week of trading. We chat about our faves SoFi and Rocketlab and we also give some grief to Saylor and MSTR. It’s late and we are punchy so come hang and listen to a couple of dudes...
Yields are up, Bitcoin just broke a record, and Brewskis talking about Birkenstock stock. Signs of the apocalypse? Maybe. But in the meantime come hang as we chat MSTR, Google, and our love for Sofi.
Oh boy the markets went nuts this week and both Make Money Ben and Just Brewski have some great gains to talk about. We get into MARA, BROS, SOXL, and a little detour through Crypto including our new favorite MSTY. Oh, don’t worry we also have some epic losses to chat through including an ETH play and Make Money Ben’s stupid TSLA trade. They’re not losses - they are life lessons. We won’t make the same mistake twice, right?
Its been a pretty good week in the markets and its time for a victory lap. If you’ve been listening and trading along you made a ton of money today on EVGO. What? You didn’t trade along? That’s ok, Make Money Ben didn’t either and he’s crying poor while Just Brewski is ringing the register. We also talk about some of our favorite operators - Bob Iger and Michael Saylor. Disney and Bitcoin, its like peanut butter and jelly. Come...

Well its been yet another week when liberation sure feels like liquidation. Despite the ups and downs we are still finding pockets of opportunity and Ben and Brewski think it might be in LEAPs - long term options. Join us as we try to figure it all out.
After one of the biggest gains in the history of the stock market it feels like we are in the eye of the storm. How long will the calm last? Are we headed to a recession? We try to figure it all out while trying to not lose all of our money. Come hang out, we got theories and not a lot of answers but at least it's entertaining.
The Stock Market has crashed, we are in a recession, and there are very few areas that are working in the market. Come hang with us as we talk about margin calls and how Bitcoin has become a great leading indicator to a crashing market. Come listen, its better than losing money!
April 1, 2025 - Its Liberation Day and we are trying to find stocks not getting hammered by the Trump Slump. We talk through Meta, Biotechs, Walmart, and the craziness of NewsMax. Come hang out while we try to make a little money.
