The first full trading week of 2026 got off to a caffeinated start. Today on Motley Fool Money, Rick Munarriz, with analysts Nick Sciple and Jon Quast, dive into the investing implications behind the capturing of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro over the weekend. There’s also a look at the bounce-back potential of Duolingo and Lululemon in 2026, as well as predictions for Disney in the coming year.

They unpack:

- What the shake-up in Venezuela means for investors.

- Reasons why Duolingo and Lululemon can bounce back after plummeting 46% each in 2025.

- How likely are Rick’s four predictions for Disney in 2026 to pan out.

Companies discussed: CVX, XOM, MELI, DUOL, LULU, DIS, WBD, NFLX
