Introducing Meta Glasses. You have questions, they've got answers.

**Graham Stephan** (0:05)
Hey Meta, what's the capital of Peru?

**Jack Selby** (0:08)
Lima.

**Chris Camillo** (0:09)
How do you say, where's the restroom in Spanish? Dónde está el baño?
Hey Meta, is a hot dog a sandwich?

**Jack Selby** (0:17)
Technically no.

**Chris Camillo** (0:18)
Spiritually, yes. Hey Meta, what should I do with my life?

**Graham Stephan** (0:23)
That's one of life's biggest questions. Ask anything with the new Meta Glasses.

**Jack Selby** (0:30)
Chris Camillo, how did you make $10 million in one day on a stock trade?

**Chris Camillo** (0:34)
It should have been a $30 to $40 million day for me.

**Graham Stephan** (0:37)
This is the fastest growth for AWS in nearly five years.

**Jack Selby** (0:40)
AI is really impacting almost every single industry. The figure that's being thrown around is like the 20,000 to 80 million.

**Chris Camillo** (0:48)
80 trades over 17 years, and every one of them has a story. You only need to find one good trade every five to 10 years, to be like a top 1% investor.

**Graham Stephan** (1:00)
The most important thing in hitting is waiting for the right pitch.

**Jack Selby** (1:03)
You only have to have an opinion on a few things.

**Chris Camillo** (1:06)
Over the course of a couple weeks, I have one of the biggest drawdowns of my investing career. I just happen to have the same major investment as Leopold.

**Graham Stephan** (1:15)
What are you paying attention to right now in the stock market?

**Chris Camillo** (1:17)
This is the biggest moment in the history of capital markets. I'm so sick of listening to these old guys that have so much conviction that this is going to happen. We just don't know. Trade is not over.
In many ways, it's just beginning.

**Jack Selby** (1:39)
Chris Camillo, Wednesday morning, you texted into our group chat, finding cash wasn't easy today, but added to my Bloom Energy and Amazon, knowing it could get a lot uglier before the market rationalizes, but been here before. Wednesday afternoon, a few hours later, you texted, I don't know of many people who are as immune to volatility than me, and there was a moment this morning where I legit almost threw up, then picked up more Bloom Energy and Amazon.
Thursday afternoon, 24 hours later, you texted, this is so close to an eight-figure up day, unreal.

**Graham Stephan** (2:12)
I'm curious, why did you almost throw up?

**Chris Camillo** (2:15)
When it rains, it pours, guys. It's just, I feel like this happens to every investor every time. It's like you have these bad days, these bad weeks at the worst possible times in your life. It's like when you're on family vacation, spending way too much money, or when you need money for something else and you're already drawing down your account for something else in your life. I have a couple of things going on right now that I needed to withdraw an insane amount of money for my account for. I already watched my account dip because of something I need, something I want to do.
Right as that happened, over the course of a couple of weeks, I have one of the biggest drawdowns of my investing career, 40 percent. I've been worse.

**Graham Stephan** (3:06)
How do you lose 40 percent? That's a lot of money because the market only went down a little bit.

**Chris Camillo** (3:13)
That's what's so crazy. I got caught up. I just happened to have the same major investment as Leopold.
You know this. I was very early on Bloom Energy. He was very early on Bloom Energy. Both of us compounded and levered into Bloom.
We six-dex, seven, eight-exed our money on Bloom, even without leverage. Bloom is one of the biggest investments I've ever made. Bloom got cut by, I don't know, 45 percent. It went from about $300 a share to 165 over a short period of time. That was one of my largest positions right there.

**Graham Stephan** (3:52)
What price did you buy into Bloom Energy?

**Jack Selby** (3:54)
I bought Bloom Energy all around. I bought a few hundred shares at like 70 bucks, bought a few hundred at a hundred and something, bought a few hundred at 300 and something. So I was buying kind of like all around, but I ended up getting obliterated on Bloom.
Fortunately, not that bad because I was selling some calls in the shares and I was doing some tricky options that hurt me and helped me at the same time. Overall, I would say I probably lost on Bloom, but it's okay because I made it up elsewhere.
