Brian Skrobonja sits down with Phon Vilayoune to unpack buffered ETFs and income notes. Phon is the Founder and CEO of VETA Investment Partners, where they currently oversee over $5.5 billion in assets. They discuss the benefits of positioning your portfolio for growth and safety, how to protect your nest egg in volatile markets, and practical strategies for optimizing gains while limiting downside risk. Tune in to hear professional insights on ETFs, income notes, and actionable frameworks for navigating today's complex market cycles. Phon explains how he entered the investing world and now helps oversee roughly $5.5B in assets. Phon highlights what trading during the 2008–09 crisis taught him about being positioned like Warren Buffett or Middle Eastern banks. In deep volatility, cash plus cash flow gives you the power to buy when everything is on sale.  Why you want a Buffett-style portfolio in a downturn: Buffett held strong during bear markets and bought when others panicked.  How to win more by losing less. Phon says risk management is the key. You never want to be a forced seller during a correction because you take a double hit: loss plus selling at the bottom. Phon and Brian break down buffered ETFs and how they're tied to S&P 500 options designed to provide a more predictable range of outcomes over 12 months. Think of it like investing with guardrails — you're participating but with intentional limits on downside. Learn what income notes are: Phon says it's basically converting equity exposure into monthly income. For example, instead of holding stocks outright, you buy a structured note designed to pay you steady monthly income while still giving some market participation. It's like blending investing and cash flow without fully being in the stock market. Phon on the future earnings potential of ETFs. He believes growth will continue, especially as aging demographics seek income and protection. BlackRock projects more than $600B in defined-outcome/Buffered ETFs in the coming years. Brian highlights that markets don't move straight up forever. We all intellectually understand cycles, but emotionally, we forget. That's why having a plan for downturns is essential. Phon shares a real-life ETF scenario and how, in 2002, a near-retirement couple protected their nest egg during intense volatility using defined outcome tools. They preserved their lifestyle when others were taking major hits. How to balance your portfolio for growth and safety. For Phon, the best thing you can do is to talk to a real human advisor. There's too much DIY noise; professional guidance helps you tune the right mix for your unique situation. Phon on what to ask your advisor: Ask how your portfolio would perform in a COVID-style year or another global-financial-crisis scenario. Then ask how it generates income and supports your goals. His favorite question: "Have you actually guided clients through a deep bear market?" Why working with a professional matters: Many strategies look great and work during bull markets. But the real test is whether they protect you when things are down. Phon explains that good portfolio design is about being structurally prepared before volatility hits. You want a position that holds through downturns—and ideally lets you buy when opportunities appear. Phon's parting advice to the audience: Go outside, walk your dog, and take real time away with family. Getting off screens and into nature helps you stay grounded. Investing is long-term—your life should be too.     Mentioned in this episode: VetaInvestmentPartners.com BlackRock.com/us/financial-professionals/insights/outcome-etfs BrianSkrobonja.com SkrobonjaFinancial.com SkrobonjaWealth.com BUILDbanking.com Common Sense Financial Podcast on YouTube  Common Sense Financial Podcast on Spotify     Alternative investments may be subject to less regulation than other types of pooled investment vehicles.

In a landmark announcement, Apple and Donald Trump unveiled a $600 billion initiative to reshape the American manufacturing landscape and end reliance on China for advanced semiconductor chips. With Apple committing to a full end-to-end silicon supply chain in the U.S., including partnerships in Texas, Arizona, and New York, the move cements TSMC's new Arizona plant—spearheaded by Trump—as a critical national asset. This strategic shift, powered by tariff exemptions, rare earth mineral mining, and streamlined regulations, is being hailed as a historic step toward U.S. technological sovereignty and a game changer in the geopolitical battle with China over Taiwan.

Today's Headlines: Ghislaine Maxwell was granted limited immunity by the DOJ during two days of questioning with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche—who's also Trump's personal lawyer. Maxwell reportedly answered questions about 100 people. Meanwhile, Trump continues to try to change the subject by calling for the prosecution of Kamala Harris, Beyoncé, and Oprah. While golfing in Scotland, Trump announced a new EU trade deal: a 15% tariff on imports, $750B in energy purchases, and $600B in investments. Despite declaring no more delays, the U.S. granted China another 90-day tariff extension. Israel paused military action in Gaza to allow aid as international concern over starvation grew. Jordan and the UAE began air-dropping supplies. Cambodia and Thailand agreed to peace talks after a deadly border clash. The DHS revealed Chinese hackers infiltrated a U.S. National Guard network for over a year, possibly accessing sensitive data, and spied on telecoms and 2024 campaigns. A new study also found the CrowdStrike crash disrupted 750 hospitals, directly impacting care at over 200. Trump signed an executive order pushing more forced hospitalizations of unhoused people with mental illness and sued NYC, claiming its sanctuary policies obstruct immigration enforcement.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this episode, get ready as I pull back the curtain on some of the most important moves happening on the global stage—and give you my unfiltered, no-nonsense take on what they really mean for you and the future. My co-host Drew and I tackle everything from Trump's headline-grabbing Middle East negotiations, to the true impact of $600 billion+ in U.S.-Saudi tech and infrastructure deals, to the double-edged sword of “commerce as a bridge” between clashing cultures. You'll hear why I think Trump's deal-making style is both captivating and dangerous, why trying to impose American values on foreign nations is a recipe for disaster, and how culture and economic incentives really shape the world. We dig deep into the nature of power, the hard limits of nation building, why price controls on prescription drugs are a political move (but not a real solution), and the uncomfortable historical realities behind immigration, assimilation, and global order. If you're looking to flag the lines between progress and peril—or just want to understand the real levers of influence behind today's biggest news—this is an episode you don't want to miss. I'm here to give you the tools to see past the spin, break down the real consequences, and make sense of the chaos so you can win in the world that's coming.

It's always a grift!Segment two brings us to the "pause" of tariffs on China. It's not a pause, and it shows Trump blinked. This administration's entire economic policy has been a mess. Finally, the Ford Fact Check focuses on the trade deficit.

Where to now? That is the question Canadian businesses and trade representatives have been asking themselves since the United States began threatening to add tariffs to Canadian imports. More than 75 percent of our goods... worth almost $600B ... are destined for the U.S. every year. But Canada is also party to 15 global free trade agreements covering 51 countries. So, if the U.S. has become an unreliable trade partner, where in the world does Canada seek new trade deals, or strengthen existing agreements? Is it even possible to replace the U.S. as a trade partner? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we break down what happened over the last week with the threat of Tariffs on Canada and Mexico. From the initial 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico to the last-minute deals that temporarily paused them. We explain how tariffs actually work, who really pays for them, and why Canada is particularly vulnerable in this trade battle. We also explore the broader implications, from potential job losses and a weakening CAD to how this could impact future trade deals, including USMCA. Plus, we dive into Canada’s need for stronger entrepreneurship and touch on major market moves like NVDA’s $600B one-day crash and China’s growing AI dominance.

Joining us this week is Haseeb Qureshi who is here to help walk us through this week's Weekly Rollup. We cover the major shift in the U.S. government's stance on crypto, as Trump signs an executive order that establishes a national digital asset stockpile working group and bans CBDCs. The SEC also revokes SAB121, clearing the way for banks to custody crypto. Meanwhile, Venice AI's token launch made waves, and Abstract Chain went live with a focus on creators and streamers. In markets, Nvidia's $600B plunge rattled investors, and the Czech National Bank considers adding Bitcoin to its reserves. Plus, Gary Gensler lands a new job—back at MIT. ------

Andrew, Ben, and Tom discuss Saudi Arabia's pledge of $600b to the US, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte asking Europe to “urgently step up its defense spending,” and various earnings. For information on how to join the Zoom calls live each morning at 8:30 EST, visithttps://www.narwhalcapital.com/blog/daily-market-briefingsPlease see disclosures:https://www.narwhalcapital.com/disclosure
