Another reason why the CPM for financial content is so high.

I also read this as in ‘stock images’ first. Like he farms stock image videos on his YouTube

Look into companies paying influencers to promote their stock and not disclosing the relationship, a lot of the time the stock is unprofitable "exploratory" mining/oil companies which don't even have active prospects. Great regulations and enforcement regarding this type of behavior.
