Rule Breaker Investing

Grab the popcorn—this Mailbag goes well beyond beach talk. A listener uses Rule Breaker tactics, keeps adding as the stock climbs, and lands their first spiffy-pop. David retells the term’s origin and brings back analyst Yasser El-Shimy, whose original pick sparks a rocket-themed chat. Another listener feeds Keats’s “On First Looking into Chapman’s Homer” to AI for a Rule-Breaker remix full of wild surmise. Those nuggets—plus the new Authors in August lineup—power this week’s breezy, idea-packed summer episode.
