Search every verified Steven Schwartz interview, podcast appearance, and on-the-record quote — each transcript cross-checked by AI and human review to confirm speaker identity. Steven Schwartz appeared on an October 23, 2026, episode of the TBPN program, where he contributed to a discussion about his trading experiences involving Moderna. He recounted a specific instance in which he initially planned to convert his entire position to a short sale on that Friday, anticipating a drop in Moderna's stock following trial results scheduled for Saturday. However, a sudden decline in the stock price led him to change his approach, as he said he feared the price could rise too quickly to afford converting to a short position. He subsequently sold his position at a loss, stating this maneuver allowed him to save roughly $500,000 to instead bet against Moderna by purchasing options. He also included a disclaimer that his comments were not financial advice. The episode also featured other segments, including a discussion with Thomas Wright about luxury real estate markets in Western U.S. resort areas and Utah's growth, as well as a segment with Kyle Schiller about Marathon Fusion's work on commercializing fusion energy. Schwartz's on-air remarks were part of the broader program, which covered topics such as housing market divergences, ethical concerns around AI-enhanced property imagery, and the release of a Call of Duty video game update.
