This week, Chris and Brad discuss the strong consumer sentiment shielding the economy from a recession, the "revenge travel" summer boosting airlines and travel stocks, and the recent coup in Russia that wasn't. Then, they each offer 3 "sure to be wrong" predictions for the second half of the year about small caps and the broader market, biotech, artificial intelligence, crypto and the economy.
