In this episode of the Top of Mind podcast, Mike Simonsen sits down with Sean Dobson, the CEO and CIO of Amherst, to learn about the single-family rental business from a true market leader. Amherst is a vertically integrated real estate investment, development, and operating company with single-family residential, mortgage-backed securities, and commercial real estate. Amherst has $15B under management and owns 50,000 homes across 33 metropolitan areas in the US. About Sean Dobson Sean Dobson is the Chairman, CEO, and CIO of Amherst, where he leverages his 30+ years of expertise in U.S. real estate, mortgage, and securitized products to lead the firm's investment strategy and oversee day-to-day strategic direction for the platform. Sean has been leading Amherst for over 20 years, transforming the firm from regional broker dealer into a market-leading real estate investment, management, and operating platform. Sean and Amherst had an active role in educating the White House, Congress, and the Federal Reserve as they navigated a historic market during the great financial crisis. Here's a glimpse of what you'll learn:  In this episode, Sean shares a candid and data-rich perspective on what's really happening in the single-family rental market, how institutional capital has reshaped housing dynamics, and what it will take to solve the affordability crisis in the years ahead. How Amherst transitioned from a mortgage data platform to one of the largest single-family rental investors in the U.S. The surprising stats behind institutional investing and homeownership Why 85% of Amherst rental applicants can't qualify for a mortgage—and what that reveals about today's affordability landscape. Learn the special indicators Amherst watches to understand local housing markets. Why institutional buyers now act as shock absorbers in market downturns What owning 50,000 homes taught Amherst about maintenance, neighborhoods, and the hidden complexity of renting. The long-term stability strategy: why Amherst doesn't flinch when the market softens. The compelling new areas of the housing industry that Amherst is aiming for in the next decade. If you want to understand the housing market not just from headlines, but from the ground level and the capital stack, this conversation is essential.

This week on Inside the Economy, we take a closer look at the impact of new tariffs, the S&P 500, and ongoing trade issues—particularly with China. Revenue from customs duties, commonly referred to as tariffs, has reached an all-time high since record-keeping began. While this revenue may soon peak and begin to decline, it is not projected to disappear entirely. In which countries or industries could tariffs remain elevated? Turning to markets and the S&P 500, earnings and revenues are not setting records, but healthcare and other sectors have been trending upward. Why are industrials moving lower? Could the market currently be in oversold territory? Trade tensions also continue to escalate, particularly between the U.S. and China. How does China's dependence on exports with the U.S. compare with that of other trading partners. Tune in to learn more! Key Takeaways: • New Orders for Durable Goods up 9.1% • Custom Duties reach $15B in revenue in April • Manufacturing Production Output index at 101.1 in March

A big cyberattack attributed to groups backed by the Chinese government has telecom providers worried. In this new report, investigators have determined that the group, known as Salt Typhoon, has had months-long access into the network infrastructures of companies like AT&T, Verizon, and Lumen Technologies. That access includes visibility over the infrastructure used for lawful intercept, which is the Internet version of tapping a phone. Per the report, the Salt Typhoon hackers appeared to be engaged in a data collection mission, trying to obtain as much data as possible from US businesses as well as those that they do business with.

Noticias Económicas y Financieras El inicio de la temporada 2024 de la NFL tendrá lugar esta noche cuando los actuales campeones del Super Bowl LVIII, los Kansas City Chiefs, reciban a los Baltimore Ravens. Es el segundo año consecutivo en el que la noche inaugural se llevará a cabo en el Arrowhead Stadium, y también marcará una revancha del juego del Campeonato de la AFC de la temporada anterior. El fútbol americano es, con diferencia, el deporte más popular en Estados Unidos, lo que está teniendo grandes ramificaciones para el mercado de apuestas deportivas y sus actores de la industria que cotizan en bolsa. Los rendimientos de los bonos del Tesoro de Estados Unidos cayeron en todos los ámbitos el miércoles. Las preocupaciones por el crecimiento y una publicación de ofertas de empleo más débil de lo esperado en julio aumentaron las apuestas de que la Reserva Federal recortará las tasas de interés en 50 puntos básicos este mes. La curva de rendimiento entre los bonos del Tesoro de Estados Unidos a 10 años y a 2 años se normalizó brevemente por segunda vez en más de dos años, después de desinvertirse el mes pasado tras 25 meses consecutivos de inversión. Una curva de rendimiento invertida se considera ampliamente un indicador de recesión, pero la normalización de la curva no es necesariamente una señal positiva, ya que la curva puede desinvertirse antes de que se produzca una recesión. Hay más drama envolviendo a la industria siderúrgica estadounidense. Según se informa, la administración Biden ha llegado a la conclusión de que la venta de US Steel $X a Nippon Steel (OTCPK: NPSCY) por casi $15B supondría un riesgo para la seguridad nacional que ninguna de las dos empresas puede mitigar. US Steel insistió en que no había tales problemas y señaló que "buscaría todas las opciones posibles bajo la ley para garantizar el cierre de esta transacción", pero sus acciones se desplomaron casi un 18% tras la noticia. El director ejecutivo David Burritt también anunció que la empresa cerraría fábricas de acero y trasladaría su sede fuera de Pittsburgh si el acuerdo fracasa. Singapur ha anunciado que los contactos cercanos de los casos sospechosos de mpox serán puestos en cuarentena durante un período de tres semanas, mientras la ciudad-estado toma medidas preventivas para minimizar la propagación del virus. Aparte de esto, las autoridades de Singapur también han puesto en marcha controles de temperatura y visuales en aeropuertos y puestos de control marítimos.

Jami Rodgers, Senior Procurement Executive, Chief Acquisition Officer, and Director for USAID Management Bureau's Office of Acquisition and Assistance joins Mike Shanley to discuss his new role with USAID. Jami talks about the incredible work that his team has done and how they are adapting to change. Jami discusses the strategies and ideas that he plans to implement with his team that he gained from working with other parts of the government such as NASA. Jami explains how AI can benefit the work that his team does, as well as what they need to lookout for. Jami then describes what the localization initiative looks like with the office of Acquisition and Assistance. Tune in to learn more about why partnership is key to the success of this team.    IN THIS EPISODE: [1:46] What does Jami see as the current state of contracting Acquisition and Assistance at USAID? [6:25] What is feasible for the team to accomplish over the next couple of years? [8:47] Which strategies and ideas is Jami bringing back to USAID from other experiences working in the government fields? [15:35] What were the 5 steps that NASA used when looking into an acquisition challenge? [18:24] How can innovation and rethinking the relationship with risk tolerance be implemented? [20:38] Where does Jami look outside of the government for inspiration or innovation for the procurement process? [23:03] How does Jami see AI affecting procurement?  [31:27] What does the localization initiative look like with the Office of Acquisition and Assistance? [35:05] Jami shares about a co-creation workshop that was used to implement a successful localization. [36:54] How does Jami look at the new partnerships initiative? [39:01] What's the best way to share ideas with Jami's team? [42:52] What is Jami prioritizing through the end of this fiscal year?   KEY TAKEAWAYS:  One way to reduce risk is by not being overly reliant on the same partners over and over and diversifying the partner base. AI can be useful to free up employees from routine and route tasks to higher value work where they can focus on contract administration challenges or getting more partner or site visits, tasks that have more meaning.  USAID doesn't do the work alone. They need players from all over to make an impact. The global challenges are going to require diversity of humanity to solve them.    QUOTES: [14:02] “The whole purpose of the NAIL was to empower that culture of innovation and reinforce the idea that anyone, anywhere, can be an innovation champion to promote an idea that will propel us forward.” - Jami J. Rodgers, CPCM [27:34] “We need to think about how not only does AI improve our execution of our current processes, but how can AI change our processes so that we're more efficient and effective. This is going to take some time, it won't be done tomorrow. Good things usually take time and thoughtful implementation.” - Jami J. Rodgers, CPCM [33:02] “The big exciting news we mentioned is translation, the whole platform is now available in Arabic, French and Spanish. So we vastly increased outreach to local partners. I believe we had close to 1,500 new users on Arabic websites in the last couple of weeks, so we're hoping that by using the language where we operate, we're bringing critical material to new partners.” - Jami J. Rodgers, CPCM   RESOURCES: Jami J. Rodgers, CPCM LinkedIn  Aid Market Podcast Aid Market Podcast YouTube   BIOGRAPHIES:  Jami J.

It's now rebuilding a more than $2 billion stake in Softbank and calling for a $15B buyback after pushing successfully for changes in early 2020. At the center of the push is that Softbank as a whole's market value is far less than the sum of its parts: its 90% stake in Arm alone is worth more than $100 billion, far more than its market cap of around $85 billion.
