Is your portfolio making a big bet on the Magnificent Seven? Mega-cap names like Nvidia, Alphabet, and Apple belong to the exclusive club that has largely driven US returns higher in recent years. Their success has led to market concentration. Portfolios tracking broad benchmarks have seen their diversification decrease and risk increase. How can you prepare your portfolio to absorb potential shocks? And where are the opportunities beyond the Mag Seven? Morningstar Holland's Chief European Market Strategist Michael Field is one of the researchers who investigated this.Beyond the Magnificent Seven: Unlocking Value in a Concentrated Stock MarketOn this episode:00:00:00 Welcome00:01:49 The Magnificent Seven's strong returns have benefited many investors.

What if Forrest Gump taught a six-year-old how to never worry about money again? In this episode, Jerremy Newsome shares how watching Forrest Gump at age six sparked a question that changed everything: "What does it mean to not have to worry about money?" That question led him to pick blackberries door-to-door, earning $1,500 that his dad matched to buy $3,000 worth of Apple stock in 1995. While those shares would be worth $39 million today, Jerremy sold them in 2000 for $12,000. That early win, and the lesson from selling too soon, ignited a 20-year journey mastering liquid markets. Now Jerremy helps people understand stocks, options, crypto, and other "liquid markets" using what he calls "second grade math" to achieve financial freedom. He shares the story of Jordan, a police officer making $80,000 a year who recently made more in one month trading than his entire monthly salary. But Jerremy's impact goes beyond teaching trading. When he stood up at a Vail event and matched $40,000 in donations for blind and special needs children learning to ski, he didn't just change those kids' lives. He turned a skeptic named Preston Brown into a lifelong friend and business ally. Jerremy reveals how meeting his wife at a Tony Robbins event, connecting with business partner Brittany Turner through Instagram, and operating from abundance instead of scarcity has created a life where impact matters more than income.   [00:04:00] The Forrest Gump Moment That Changed Everything At age six, watching Forrest Gump with his dad and brother when Lieutenant Dan "invested in some kind of fruit company" Growing up poor, hearing someone didn't have to worry about money was a huge paradigm shift Asked his dad what investing meant, learned about Apple as a computer company Dad gave every excuse: "I don't have time, I'm not smart enough, I don't have enough money" [00:05:20] Picking Blackberries to Buy Apple Stock Dad said "If you bring me some money, I'll match it dollar for dollar" Jerremy's favorite quote: "It's not your resources, it's your resourcefulness" Picked blackberries, sold them door-to-door for a dollar a bag in summer 1995 Made $1,500, dad borrowed from uncle to match, bought $3,000 of Apple at exact bottom [00:06:00] The $39 Million Lesson Those shares today worth about $39 million Sold them in 2000 for $12,000 when family moved from Georgia to Florida Dad called it "the best investment, the best trade I'd ever make my whole life" Got $12,000 at age 12 and has been studying markets "like a heathen" ever since [00:07:00] From History Teacher Dream to Teaching Financial Freedom Wanted to be history teacher since fourth grade, teacher said "You don't get paid any money" Has blend of entrepreneur spirit and teacher spirit Loves learning unique things and teaching them simply because that's how he learns Teaches "liquid markets": stocks, options, crypto, futures, bonds, gold, silver, commodities [00:08:00] Making Complex Things Simple What motivates him: helping people understand complex subjects and explaining them easily When someone learns something and it clicks, that energizes him more than anything Teaches "second grade math to how to become financially free as quick as possible" If you have access to internet, you have access to income once you have knowledge and tools [00:09:20] Jordan the Police Officer's Transformation Started working with Jordan 7-8 months ago, police officer in Northern California making $80,000/year Jordan said police officers are massively undertrained, don't have equipment/knowledge for wide array of situations Last month Jordan made more trading than his monthly salary Made $12,000 net on $60,000 account (20% return in one month) [00:11:20] From Scarcity to Abundance Jordan paying off debts, taking wife and kids to Disneyland Using money to feel abundant, taste prosperity, be in place of creation versus fear Most people find themselves in scarcity when it comes to money The opportunity to create income exists every single day in the stock market [00:12:20] Giving People Choices and Freedom Jordan now realizes he has choices and options For entrepreneurs doing $500K-$3M, you're in the swamp: making enough to do well but not enough to be free Mindset shift from "I have to work to make money" to "I get to create to attract more value" Making (grinding energy) versus attracting/receiving/creating (different energy) [00:15:40] Two People Who Changed Everything His wife: Met at Tony Robbins UPW event November 4, 2012 in Orlando Brittany Turner: Reached out via Instagram in February 2020 through mutual connection Both have helped him heal, expand, and step into greatness [00:16:00] Meeting His Wife at Tony Robbins Boss said "you really should go to this Tony Robbins event called UPW" Met his wife at Unleash the Power Within in Orlando Took 12 years to figure it out, got married about five years ago Have three boys together, she's helped him expand and step into greatness [00:17:00] The Brittany Turner Partnership Needed real estate specialist for his Money Grows on Trees conference Sent Brittany Turner video via Instagram DM in February 2020 In coming-up-on-six-year relationship: organizations built, purpose stepped into, islands, investments, opportunities Alignment with someone who brings joy, understanding, and awareness of more into your life [00:18:40] The Web of Million Dollar Connections Brittany introduced him to Ané Gupta (relationship specialist) Ané introduced him to Chuck Hogan who ran Your Best Life mastermind Chuck's mastermind had three main members: Chuck, Dean, and Preston Brown Got asked to speak at event in Vail, Colorado in February 2022 [00:19:40] The $80,000 Donation That Changed a Relationship Organization helping blind and special needs kids learn to ski said "$5,000 would change our whole life" Preston Brown admittedly didn't like Jerremy before they met Jerremy stood up and said "I will match every donation given today" Room raised over $40,000, Jerremy matched $40,000 for $80,000 total to Little Champions [00:21:00] From Skeptic to Lifelong Friend Preston came up afterwards, gave hug: "You are my guy, that reminded me of Christ" "Between me and you, we'll be friends for life" Preston has given so much business, referrals, opportunities since Coming to Vegas this weekend with 40 entrepreneurs for "radical business" [00:23:00] When Making More Money Ceases to Inspire Kevin: Once family needs are met, making more money ceased to inspire him Having conversations with entrepreneurs, making introductions that lead to big deals, that's what inspires It's not the revenue, it's the impact Les Brown taught Jerremy: "Your income is directly tied to your impact" [00:25:40] Connecting with Jerremy Name spelled J-E-R-R-E-M-Y (stands for Jerry + Me, his dad's name was Jerry) Newsome: N-E-W-S-O-M-E.com All social media platforms, look for blue verified check mark Broke to Woke podcast with Brittany Turner (six seasons, 24 episodes, season seven coming) [00:27:00] Ask For More Awareness of what's possible comes by asking for more It's okay to want more so you can offer more, provide more, give more God is the God of infinite, receiving more doesn't take away from anyone else "Those who knock, door is opened" - ask for more and change your awareness   KEY QUOTES "It's not your resources, it's your resourcefulness. That's probably what entrepreneurship is." - Jerremy Newsome "If you have access to the internet, you have access to income once you have the knowledge and the skills and the tools." - Jerremy Newsome "The secret to living is giving, and one of the best things to give is the gift of a relationship." - Jerremy Newsome "Your income is directly tied to your impact. You wanna make more, figure out a way to impact more." - Les Brown (quoted by Jerremy) CONNECT WITH JERREMY NEWSOME

Two Eminent ESG Stock Reviews, Plus… Includes insightful reviews of Apple and Temenos, two outstanding environmental and high-performing stocks. By Ron Robins, MBA Transcript & Links, Episode 156, July 11, 2025 Hello, Ron Robins here. Welcome to my podcast episode 156, published on July 11, 2025, titled “Two Eminent ESG Stock Reviews, Plus…” So, this podcast is presented by Investing for the Soul. Investingforthesoul.com is your go-to site for vital global, ethical, and sustainable investing mentoring, news, commentary, information, and resources. Remember that you can find a full transcript and links to content, including stock symbols and bonus material, on this episode's podcast page at investingforthesoul.com/podcasts. Also, a reminder. I do not evaluate any of the stocks or funds mentioned in these podcasts, and I don't receive any compensation from anyone covered in these podcasts. Furthermore, I will reveal any investments I have in the investments mentioned herein. Additionally, please visit this podcast's webpage for links to the articles and additional company and stock information. I have a great crop of 9 articles for you in this podcast! ------------------------------------------------------------- Two Eminent ESG Stock Reviews, Plus… Article 1. My first article in this podcast is about a favourite stock for ethical and sustainable investors. It's titled Is Apple Stock a Green Investment? Net-Zero Goals and Sustainable Supply Chain. By Saptakee S. Seen on carboncredits.com. Here are some quotes from the article. “Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) is a key player in the fight against climate change. The tech giant runs one of the largest carbon reduction programs worldwide. And over 320 suppliers have committed to using 100% clean energy by 2030. This makes Apple an appealing investment for those who care about the environment and want solid returns. Apple's strong finances enable meaningful change. The company achieved record revenue of $124.3 billion in early 2025, a 4% increase from the year before. In the next quarter, Apple earned $95.4 billion, with an 8% rise in earnings per share. Services revenue also hit $26.6 billion, a significant milestone. This success is crucial for investors focused on carbon reduction… The company has cut global greenhouse gas emissions by over 60% since 2015… MUST READ: Apple's Best Quarter Ever: Q1 FY 2025 Revenue Hits $124.3 Billion, Carbon Emissions Drop  Manufacturing emissions account for about 55% of Apple's total carbon footprint. The company nearly halved product manufacturing emissions, dropping from 16.1 million tons in 2020 to 8.2 million tons in 2024. Apple's progress toward carbon neutrality: Goal Carbon Neutral by 2030 Apple produced the world's first carbon-neutral consumer electronics. The Apple Watch lineup and Mac mini achieved this through emissions reductions of over 75%. Remaining emissions were balanced by high-quality carbon credits from nature projects… These carbon-neutral products have key features: Over 30% recycled content by weight 100% recycled aluminum in cases Manufacturing with 100% renewable electricity Recycled Materials Drive Sustainability Apple has made progress in using recycled materials. In 2024, 24% of product materials came from recycled or renewable sources. The company now uses 99% recycled rare earth elements in magnets and 99% recycled cobalt in batteries… Apple's recycling innovations include the Daisy robot, which disassembles used devices to recover rare materials… Additionally, the company plans to use only recycled and renewable materials in its products by 2030… Carbon Market Investment Opportunities Apple invests in high-quality, nature-based carbon credits instead of cheap offsets. It spends up to $400 million through its Restore Fund programs, aiming for 1 million metric tons of carbon dioxide removal each year… Strategic Advantages Through Environmental Leadership Apple's environmental leadership provides many competitive advantages. Its detailed carbon accounting prepares it well for global carbon pricing. Early use of renewable energy and efficient manufacturing gives it cost benefits as energy prices change… Investment Considerations and Risks The company trades at a premium price with a P/E ratio of around 28, which may lead to volatility risks… The stock has seen volatility in 2025, declining about 19% year-to-date. This may present opportunities for long-term investors focused on Apple's sustainability leadership and financial strength… From the above analysis, we can see that Apple Stock is a solid choice for carbon-conscious investors… As global carbon markets expand and ESG investing increases, Apple shines in environmental leadership. Its solid financial resources and focus on transparency make it a top pick for portfolios aimed at climate solutions and sustainable tech.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Two Eminent ESG Stock Reviews, Plus… Article 2. Unlike the first article featuring a company which is in nearly everyone's portfolio, this second article features a company that is perhaps new to many of you. It's titled Why Temenos Is the Gold Standard in Sustainable Banking Tech—and a Top ESG Investment. It's by Eli Grant and found on ainvest.com. Here are some quotes from the article. Temenos (TEMN.SW) Temenos' ESG credentials are unmatched in its sector. In 2022, it became one of only 13 companies globally to achieve an AAA rating from MSCI's ESG rating system, placing it in the top 8% of all firms assessed. By 2024, Sustainalytics named it a ‘Low Risk' company with an ESG Risk Rating of 11.9—ranking first in its industry and sub-industry, securing the top 2% globally. This stellar performance isn't just about accolades; it reflects tangible actions. The company's carbon emissions calculator, developed with Microsoft and launched at COP27, allows clients to measure their environmental impact from using Temenos Banking Cloud. This tool isn't just a marketing gimmick: banks using its cloud platform reduce their carbon footprints by up to 95% compared to on-premise systems. Such measurable outcomes are critical as regulators globally push for transparency and accountability. Cloud Innovation as a Climate Solution Temenos' cloud-based solutions—like its flagship Banking Cloud and AI-driven Leap platform—aren't just about efficiency. They're a direct response to the existential threat of climate change. By centralizing banking operations in the cloud, Temenos helps institutions slash energy consumption and emissions. For example, a 2024 study by GoCodeGreen validated that Temenos' code optimizations reduced software carbon impact by 32% compared to 2021 levels. This environmental edge is a competitive moat… Governance and Strategy: A Boardroom Priority Temenos' leadership has embedded ESG into its DNA. Its board oversees ESG initiatives directly, and the company has committed to science-based emissions targets aligned with the 1.5°C warming limit… The results speak for themselves: Temenos retains EcoVadis Platinum status (top 1% globally) and was the sole software company to rank in the top 1% of S&P's 2024 Sustainability Yearbook. The Investment Case: Why Temenos Belongs in Every ESG Portfolio For investors, Temenos offers a rare combination of growth and values. Its cloud revenue grew 22% in 2023, and with over 700 clients migrated to its platform, demand is accelerating. Meanwhile, regulatory tailwinds—like the EU's Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) and global carbon pricing mechanisms—are creating urgency for banks to modernize their tech stacks. Critically, Temenos' ESG leadership attracts capital from ESG-focused funds. Companies with top quartile ESG ratings historically outperform peers during market downturns, a trend that could amplify as climate risks materialize. Temenos isn't just a tech vendor—it's a sustainability pioneer. Its unrivaled ESG ratings, climate-conscious products, and strategic foresight position it to capitalize on two megatrends: the digitization of finance and the global push for net-zero. For investors, this is a stock that checks all boxes: ethical alignment, growth potential, and resilience in a volatile world… For ESG-focused investors, this is a must-hold.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Two Eminent ESG Stock Reviews, Plus… Article 3. This next article is the first of 2 articles on dividend stocks that might interest ethical and sustainable investors. Its title is VZ Named A Top Socially Responsible Dividend Stock by BNK Invest and found on nasdaq.com. Here are some quotes from the article. “Verizon Communications Inc. (Symbol: VZ) has been named a Top Socially Responsible Dividend Stock by Dividend Channel, signifying a stock with above-average 'DividendRank' statistics including a strong 6.4% yield, as well as being recognized by prominent asset managers as being a socially responsible investment, through analysis of social and environmental criteria… According to the ETF Finder at ETF Channel, Verizon Communications Inc. is a member of both the iShares MSCI USA ESG Select ETF (SUSA), making up 0.43% of the underlying holdings of the fund, as well as the iShares MSCI KLD 400 Social Index Fund ETF (DSI), where Verizon Communications Inc. makes up 0.63% of the underlying holdings of the fund. The annualized dividend paid by Verizon Communications Inc. is $2.71/share, currently paid in quarterly installments.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Two Eminent ESG Stock Reviews, Plus… Article 4. The second dividend-paying stock article is titled AvalonBay Communities a Top Socially Responsible Dividend Stock With 3.4% Yield (AVB). It's by BNK Invest and is seen on nasdaq.com. Here's some of what BNK Invest says about this stock. “AvalonBay Communities, Inc .(Symbol: AVB) has been named a Top Socially Responsible Dividend Stock by Dividend Channel, signifying a stock with above average ‘DividendRank' statistics including a strong 3.4% yield, as well as being recognized by prominent asset managers as being a socially responsible investment, through analysis of social and environmental criteria… According to the ETF Finder at ETF Channel, AvalonBay Communities, Inc. is a member of the iShares USA ESG Select ETF (SUSA), making up 0.10% of the underlying holdings of the fund. The annualized dividend paid by AvalonBay Communities, Inc. is $7/share, currently paid in quarterly installments.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- More articles of interest from around the world for ethical and sustainable investors 1.

YouTube is launching a refreshed editing app. And who knew A Minecraft Movie would perform so well at the box office?

We'd love to hear from you! Send us a text message.In this episode of 'Discover Daily' by Perplexity, we begin with NVIDIA's remarkable Q2 fiscal 2025 earnings, showcasing a 122% year-over-year revenue increase to $30 billion. The company's data center segment, driven by AI chip demand, reached $26.3 billion, accounting for nearly 88% of total revenue. But despite this impressive growth, NVIDIA faces challenges, including potential delays in its upcoming Blackwell architecture. We then explore Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway reaching a $1 trillion market cap, becoming the first non-tech U.S. company to achieve this milestone. This achievement underscores the success of Buffett's value investing strategy and challenges the notion that only tech companies can reach such valuations. Lastly, we look at a surprising innovation in cycling gear: Shimano's groundbreaking patent for electric, self-adjusting cycling shoes. This innovative technology allows for automatic adjustment of shoe position relative to pedals while riding, potentially revolutionizing competitive cycling. We examine the potential benefits, challenges, and implications of this technology for the cycling industry and sports equipment innovation.From Perplexity's Discover Feed: https://www.perplexity.ai/page/nvidia-beats-q2-expectations-k9CT.KnRT1uKI8OG99kdrAhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/berkshire-hathaway-s-1t-valuat-Ln5yGM2NQHS98uJF1gTXGAhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/shimano-s-electric-shoes-propo-UuV3zuLjQLapS4ZOlaaBCwPerplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.

May CPI I would say I was very optimistic after the May Consumer Price Index (CPI) was released. Headline CPI increased 3.3% compared to last year, which was below the estimate and last month's reading which both stood at 3.4%. Core CPI which excludes food and energy was up 3.4%, which was below the estimate of 3.5% and last month's reading of 3.6%. This also marked the lowest reading since April 2021 when inflation concerns really began and the core CPI was at 3.0%. In March 2021 core CPI was at 1.6%. The shelter index continues to be the heavyweight moving core CPI as it was up 5.4% over last year and accounted for over two thirds of the annual increase. Many areas of the report have come back down to more normal inflation rates with areas like food at home increasing just 1% compared to last year. Food away from home was a little more challenged as that was up 4% compared to last year. I believe much of this can be attributed to the continued demand for bars and restaurants and the increased wage pressures. Although energy saw a 2% decline compared to the previous month, it was 3.7% higher than last year. This stems from the major fall in energy prices last year that I believe will make for difficult comparisons over the next few months. Two major areas that have remained problematic include admission to sporting events, which saw an increase of 21.7% compared to last year and motor vehicle insurance, which saw an increase of 20.3% compared to last year. It was positive to see a monthly decline in motor vehicle insurance of 0.1%. I believe this category will not be a problem in 2025 as much of the rate increases have now taken place. Overall, I believe this report should be supportive of a rate cut, but we will need to see more reports like this with further progress in the coming months for a cut to actually occur.  May PPI After a positive Consumer Price Index (CPI), the Producer Price Index (PPI) delivered more welcome news on the inflation front. May headline PPI rose 2.2% compared to last year and when comparing against the month of April there was a decline of 0.2%. Estimates were looking for a 2.5% increase in the annual number and a 0.1% increase in the monthly figure. When looking at core PPI, which excludes food and energy, the report showed and increase of just 2.3% on annual basis which was below the expectation for a 2.5% increase. These numbers are right around the Fed's 2% target and should be a positive indicator for CPI and PCE as we continue to move forward.  Private Investment Deals Investors be aware that your local broker could start hitting you up for private investment deals to fund apartment complexes somewhere around the country. The problem is the banks are starting to clamp down on just loaning money for projects on apartments that may be losers. In 2023 almost 500,000 new apartments were opened which is the most since the 80s. That growth is expected to continue and it's estimated to be around the same number in 2024. We have said before this will help bring down housing costs probably by 2025 as there are so many apartments on the market that the owners will give so many free incentives and reduce the rents just to get people in and provide the owners some cash flow. This will affect the housing market along with the CPI since shelter costs are a big part of that index and lower rents would help reduce the inflation numbers.  Apple Stock I was surprised to see Apple move more than 7% higher a day after the developer conference on Monday and close at a record high. There was a lot of hype leading up to the event as the company was anticipated to detail more about its AI strategy. I'm not sure if I saw the same conference, but I was not overly impressed by the details. Apple launched Apple Intelligence which can proofread your writing, or even rewrite it in a friendly or professional tone. It can create custom emojis called “genmoji,” search through your iPhone for specific messages from someone, summarize and transcribe phone calls or show you priority notifications. It can even tap into OpenAI's ChatGPT to provide you more detailed answers from Siri. ChatGPT is also built into systemwide writing tools. So, for example, Apple said you can create a bedtime story for a child and add images created by ChatGPT. Since the updates will only take place on the iPhone 15 Pro, Pro Max, and newly built phones, the hope is there will be a major upgrade cycle. Personally, I just don't see how these updates will get many people to move and buy a phone that will cost at least $1,000. I know new emojis is definitely not enough for me to upgrade. I also do worry about how this will impact the relationship with Google. Alphabet currently pays Apple around $20 B per year to be the default search engine on Apple devices. If more people begin to use the AI function and do less search, why would Alphabet continue to pay such a hefty fee? For a stock trading at close to 30x this year's projected earnings, there is now a lot riding on this next iPhone cycle.  What should you do with your Annuity? It is very rare that I come across someone who fully understands their annuity. Annuities can be either qualified or non-qualified and their status will determine how they are taxed. A qualified annuity means it was purchased with retirement funds while a non-qualified annuity was purchased with non-retirement funds. Generally qualified annuities are more flexible because they can be surrendered and rolled into another IRA without tax. However, if non-qualified annuities are surrendered, the entire gain becomes taxable at ordinary income rates. Because of this sometimes (but not always) it can make more sense to annuitize non-qualified annuities which is the process of converting the funds into a pension-like stream of income. This is still taxable, but the gain is spread out over time rather than realized in one year. I recently spoke with someone who is close to 80 years old and owns a non-qualified annuity. It turns out their annuity has two annuitization options. They can either withdraw 5% of the account value for the rest of their life, or they can withdraw 7% of the account value until the account value has been reached, but would also stop upon death. The issue here is in both of these cases, there is a decent chance they will not live long enough to get all their money back, let alone any growth. Another option would be to surrender the annuity to guarantee they receive all their funds back, but then they would pay a decent chunk of it in taxes. This is one example of many that illustrate if you have an annuity, make sure you also know when and how to use it because waiting will limit your options.   Stocks Discussed: Docusign (DOCU), Ferrari (RACE) and Southwest (LUV)

Trust. The foundation of modern society is built on it. Today we are fortunate to welcome Dr. Henry Cloud to the Basement to talk about who is actually worthy of our trust and who is not. We'll talk about how we're rightfully reticent to extend trust when our gut says we shouldn't and how we get burned when we let people in who shouldn't be. We also discuss how to help people earn our trust so we have better relationships. Our friend Doc G from the Earn & Invest Podcast helps us out with the interview. You don't want to miss this episode! In our headline today, would you let your kid jump on his/her phone and go all or none on a sweet straddle on Apple Stock? We learn about a popular broker who's in some regulatory hot water because of some clients who can't (legally) buy alcohol. How do you monitor your devices? We'll share strategies. Plus, we throw out the Haven Lifeline to Stacker Sammy who asked a question about HSAs. Throw in some of Doug's historical trivia, and we've got ourselves a podcast, boys and girls!
