From tech to consumer staples, Diane King Hall talks about the stock movers driving the start of the trading day. On Tesla (TSLA), she notes Benchmark upping its price target on expectations of improving macro conditions. The same can't be said for the Trade Desk (TTD), which got a downgrade from Wells Fargo. Diane later talks about the rally in McCormick & Co. (MKC) following its earnings beat and reaffirmed guidance.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Rob's headed north where the trees are few but the bourbon might be plentiful, and Mark's just trying to remember which Benchmark bottle he poured. In this second sip of our Benchmark Whiskey series, we crack open the Small Batch and Single Barrel, dig into what makes a bourbon “blended” or “single,” and uncover why “small batch” means... whatever a distillery wants it to mean. We also chat about England finally giving its whiskey some proper rules, a wild new release from Little Book, and Maker's Mark doing something they haven't done in 70 years. Buckle up, this one's smooth, oaky, and a little nerdy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Meanwhile, Oklo (OKLO) fell sharply as Craig-Hallum downgraded it on an "unchartered regulatory path." And, Coinbase (COIN) rose after Benchmark lifted its price target to $421 from $301.

In this episode of Friday Fiduciary Five, Eric Dyson talks about the frequency of benchmarking retirement plans, focusing on fee benchmarks rather than employer contributions or eligibility periods. Using data from Callan's 2023 and 2025 defined contribution trend surveys, Eric notes that 80% of large plans reviewed fees in 2022 and 75% plan to do so in 2023. He highlights that 70-80% of these plans benchmark fees annually, with 90% doing so at least every other year. Eric emphasizes that all plans regardless of size have a fiduciary duty to monitor fees and suggests consulting the right experts for specific benchmarking frequencies.Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information contained herein is general in nature and is provided solely for educational and informational purposes.It is not intended to provide a specific recommendation of any type of product or service discussed in this presentation or to provide any warranties, financial advice or legal advice.The specific facts and circumstance of all qualified plans can vary and the information contained in this podcast may or may not apply to your individual circumstances or to your plan or client plan specific circumstances.

If we want to make progress toward AGI, we need a clear definition of intelligence—and a way to measure it. In this episode, Hugo talks with Greg Kamradt, President of the ARC Prize Foundation, about ARC-AGI: a benchmark built on Francois Chollet's definition of intelligence as “the efficiency at which you learn new things.” Unlike most evals that focus on memorization or task completion, ARC is designed to measure generalization—and expose where today's top models fall short. They discuss:

En este episodio exploramos cómo los grandes fondos de inversión de $20 mil millones están cambiando las reglas del juego en los mercados globales y qué significa la salida de Warren Buffett para el futuro de las inversiones. Analizamos el impacto del retiro de Buffett y cómo esto reconfigura el panorama para los nuevos jugadores y estrategias de capital. Nos adentramos en el mundo de las compañías de inteligencia artificial, destacando los movimientos de Luzia y Zapia, dos startups que captaron la atención de los inversores con rondas millonarias. Además, revisamos el caso de Kavak, que levanta $127 millones en una ronda down round y reduce su valuación a $2.2 mil millones, un reflejo de las nuevas dinámicas del venture capital en 2025. También desglosamos las matemáticas detrás de los fondos de inversión y los métodos de reporting que los founders deben dominar para atraer capital. Cerramos con estrategias clave para comunicar efectivamente una ronda de inversión a los medios y cómo preparar el discurso perfecto para captar la atención de los VCs en un entorno cada vez más competitivo.

Teaching can feel like driving on autopilot - same route, same scenery, same old routine. So what happens when that journey starts to feel monotonous and uninspiring? In today's conversation, I dive deep into a feeling that every teacher experiences at some point: boredom. Whether you're an AP Biology teacher counting down to exam day or a Earth Science instructor trudging through yet another semester of the same curriculum, staleness can creep into even the most passionate teacher's classroom.I've been there, teaching multiple sections of general biology, repeating the same lessons over and over again, semester after semester. That's why I'm sharing eight practical strategies to reignite your teaching spark when your job feels stale. They worked for me, and I know they can work for you too!

In this episode, we discuss a commonly overlooked benchmark in ACL rehab - your uninvolved side. While this leg has to take on the load early on, it can be a helpful proxy for a number of things in the ACL rehab process. What's important is that we have to be honest about what standards we're comparing it to to make sure we're not using a not-so-good standard. This episode highlights an important component ACLers are searching for - the "feel" and what's "normal" and being able to find some signal within all the noise in this ACL rehab process.Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.

The race for Bitcoin supremacy just got more complicated. Twenty One Capital, backed by Tether, SoftBank, and Cantor Fitzgerald, plans to stack as much BTC as it possibly can.  But is this new venture really about Bitcoin … or about creating a hyper-volatile stock to play market cycles? This week on Unchained, Jeff Park of Bitwise and Mark Palmer of Benchmark join to discuss: Why SoftBank and Tether are a “perfect match”—and why they turned to Bitcoin How volatility, not bitcoin itself, might be the real asset investors are buying What Cantor's involvement says about Wall Street's readiness for crypto Why the launch timing matters Whether Twenty One could repeat MicroStrategy's mistakes Whether these new Bitcoin vehicles are better bets than spot bitcoin or ETFs Plus, is SoftBank getting into crypto a top signal?

As President Donald Trump gears up to mark his 100th day in office, his administration is beset by challenges. Polls show his approval rating at a historical low for this stage in a presidency. Markets are volatile,  no new trade deals have yet been brokered and Americans' economic outlook has darkened. His immigration agenda is stymied by the court system, with the threat of a larger legal confrontation in the wings. Where do things go from here? And will the White House take this moment as an inflection point or a chance to redouble their efforts? POLITICO White House bureau chief Dasha Burns joins Playbook managing editor and author Jack Blanchard to discuss.

This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, Fyre Festival rises from the ashes yet again—but not as a festival, because even Billy McFarland finally figured out he's better at selling pipe dreams than tents. Meanwhile, Amazon and Microsoft are tapping the brakes on their AI data center dreams, Google's AI keeps confidently explaining made-up nonsense like it's gospel, and Kevin Roose once again tries to convince us to have empathy for the glorified autocomplete machines. (Spoiler: We won't.) Also, OpenAI wants to buy Chrome even though they can barely afford their own lunch tabs, Perplexity says the quiet part loud about stalking your browser habits, and Meta lays off more VR developers while pretending they care about human rights.In the “it's all stupid, but at least it's entertaining” department: Uber gets sued for making it harder to cancel than joining Scientology, Adam Neumann dupes investors again, sperm racing is now a real thing (and yes, there's crypto involved), and Bluesky caves to the almighty blue checkmark. Plus, Affinity Suite reminds us you don't have to sell a kidney to escape Adobe, The Wheel of Time gets an open-world game that'll probably drop after the heat death of the universe, and Wednesday Season 2 is on the way, because Netflix refuses to let its only hits rest.Stick around for The Dark Side with Dave where we grumble about Andor Season 2, lament bad writing decisions, geek out over old-school arcade games, and learn that memory colors are apparently a thing. Oh, and if you're feeling fancy, go ahead and thank ChatGPT for wasting millions in server bills—because if Sam Altman's crying about manners costing money, we're grabbing the popcorn.Sponsors:Insta360 - The first 30 people who use code “gog” at store.insta360.com get a free 45” invisible selfie stick worth $25!DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.
