Niels and Alan sit down with BlackRock's Jeff Rosenberg to examine how the post Covid shift from too little to too much inflation is reshaping portfolios. Jeff explains why bond and equity correlations have changed, why fixed income is drifting back toward income rather than pure diversification, and how fiscal pressure and soft financial repression may influence rates. They explore what systematic really means at BlackRock, from trend ETFs and defensive alpha to market breadth and execution. The conversation ends with the rise of liquid alternatives, whole portfolio thinking and growing equity concentration risk.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on Twitter.Follow Jeff on LinkedIn.Find out more about DUNN CapitalEpisode Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction, Jeff's role at BlackRock Systematic and setting the agenda04:09 - From too little to too much inflation and the end of divine coincidence09:32 - Wage dynamics, “prices are too high” and persistent, not resurgent, inflation14:48 - Bond equity correlation, the changing role of fixed income and income versus diversification19:55 - Fiscal dominance, debt loads and the risk of soft financial repression25:21 - What “systematic” means at BlackRock across beta, factors and pure alpha30:44 - Trend as a systematic return stream and why...

In this week's episode of Retire in Texas, Darryl Lyons explores one of the most significant economic shifts happening in our state: the creation of the Texas Stock Exchange - and what this means for business owners, investors, and the long-term financial landscape of Texas. Darryl begins by sharing a personal story from a recent trip to New York with his daughter, reflecting on how Wall Street has changed over time and how electronic trading has transformed the markets. That reflection sets the stage for today's discussion: the movement of major financial infrastructure away from New York and into Texas. He breaks the episode into several key themes: •        Why "Y'all Street" is becoming a reality, including how the Texas Stock Exchange - backed by BlackRock and Citadel - represents a major shift in where capital markets operate. •        How ESG policies contributed to this moment, and why regulatory burdens pushed many companies to seek a more business-friendly environment. •        How Texas prepared for this growth, from specialized business courts to economic development incentives that attracted Fortune 100 companies like Oracle and Tesla. •        The culture factor, including why some Texas cities - especially San Antonio - may limit their own growth unintentionally due to strong family-centric values. •        How access to capital unlocks expansion, using PAX as an example of how a company with a strong mission might scale when the right financial pathways exist. •        What the Texas exchange could mean for your investments, including why more homegrown Texas companies going public could eventually strengthen 401(k)s and IRAs across the state. Darryl connects the dots between local business culture, economic development, and national capital markets to show how transformative this shift could be - not just for corporations, but for everyday Texans who invest for retirement.

Thank you to our sponsors! Uniswap Mantle Hosts Ram Ahluwalia, Austin Campbell, and Chris Perkins dig into why interest rates may not fall as quickly as markets hope, why oil demand could surprise to the upside, and how retail keeps buying every dip—even while consumer confidence hits new lows. The trio also breaks down the growing collision between TradFi and crypto: whether banks can compete with blockchain-native distribution, how BlackRock's staked ETH ETF filing could reshape the market, and how yields on Ethereum and Solana represent a brand-new financial primitive. Plus, they examine Ripple's controversial raise, Citadel's push to regulate DeFi, and why major incumbents are now in a frantic race to choose their crypto “dance partners.” Hosts: Ram Ahluwalia, CFA, CEO and Founder of Lumida Austin Campbell, NYU Stern professor and founder and managing partner of Zero Knowledge Consulting Christopher Perkins, Managing Partner and President of CoinFund Links: Unchained:  BlackRock Files S-1 for Staked ETH ETF Berachain Kept Secret a $25 Million Refund Right to a Brevan Howard Fund CoinDesk:  Citadel Challenges DeFi Framework in Letter to SEC, Sparking Industry Outrage Bloomberg:  Wall Street Hedged Big Crypto Bet in $500 Million Ripple Deal (XRP) Bitcoin Options Show Traders Hunkering Down for Crypto Winter Timestamps:

An incident at a Cinnabon dominated social media over the weekend, and a woman was fired for calling someone a naughty word. Santa won't be happy. The Trump administration suggested a new rule to limit asset management funds, like Black Rock and Vanguard. Then he said "affordability" is a con-job. So, let's do a good Trump, bad Trump.

Host John Stepek speaks with Helen Jewell, International CIO of Fundamental Equities for EMEA at BlackRock, about an unexpectedly strong year for global equity markets — one in which most regions outside the US outperformed. Jewell explains why widespread diversification, renewed strength in European banks, and accelerating demand for energy infrastructure—driven largely by AI—are shaping her outlook for 2026. She also highlights key risks, including investor complacency, and argues that selective opportunities in European quality growth and UK small caps remain compelling despite recent volatility.

När USA vill mota bort Kina från Panamakanalen har Peking en plan B. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Världens två supermakter har drabbat samman i Panama. Donald Trump vill ha bort kinesiskt inflytande från den för världshandeln så viktiga kanalen och amerikanska Blackrock vill köpa ut Hongkongbolaget CK Hutchison som där driver två hamnar. Men Peking bromsar affären och har även investerat miljarder i en ny djuphavshamn i Peru, söder om Panama. Konflikten visar hur hamnar blivit centrala i stormaktskampen och där Kina i många år ökat sitt inflytande över hamnar världen över. Även i Europa där USA nu också tycks vilja pressa bort Kina från den stora hamnen Piraeus i Grekland.Medverkande: Hanna Sahlberg, Ekots KinareporterProgramledare & producent: Björn Djurberg

This Friday 5 runs through a week defined by Larry Fink's renewed tokenization push, MicroStrategy's move to eliminate default risk, major wealth platforms finally opening their doors to Bitcoin, and a macro backdrop where liquidity interventions are starting to matter again. It all culminates in a price week that didn't resolve the bear case but made the conversation far more interesting, with volatility returning even if direction hasn't. Headlines include: BlackRock's policy-facing tokenization thesis, MicroStrategy's $1.4B buffer, Vanguard and Bank of America shifting access, and the Fed's early signals on easing.

Joe Oltmann Untamed tackles the explosive arrest of Brian Cole, the Virginia man accused of planting pipe bombs near the U.S. Capitol on January 5, 2021, just before the January 6 riots. With fresh updates from Fox News and eyewitness video of the Woodbridge standoff, we'll dive into the FBI's five-year investigation, the $500,000 reward, and Cole's alleged anarchist ties, as reported by the Daily Mail.

With 30 years in commodities and his acclaimed GoldFix newsletter, Vince will share battle-tested strategies from Echobay Partners to navigate U.S. policy impacts and China's silver supply crunch. Don't miss his take on whether the AI boom mirrors the dot-com bust, backed by BlackRock data and Yahoo Finance's “air pocket” warning. We welcome Peter Ticktin for a Tina Peters update, exploring her legal battle with new documents like the BOP's transfer request and an emergency motion for bond release due to her mother's life-threatening injuries. From his bold call for the 101st Airborne to free Peters to challenging Colorado's justice system, Ticktin's decades of legal prowess shine. With the court backlog and Polis' stance in focus, we'll grill him on strategy and evidence. Stay untamed—truth awaits!

Bitcoin hit a rare signal this week, dropping to its cheapest level relative to gold in nearly 15 years. Is that a buy signal or something deeper in the macro picture? Ryan and David break down what the BTC–gold anomaly really means, how liquidity, rates, and Trump's surprise Fed Chair pick factor in, and whether the market is entering a shallow cycle instead of a true winter. We also cover Ethereum's Fusaka upgrade, Vitalik's push to bring builders back to L1, Polymarket's mainstream breakout and CNN–Kalshi deal, and Aztec's 16K ETH privacy auction.

⬜ Welcome to Palvatar Market Recap, your go-to daily briefing on the latest market movements, global macro shifts, and crypto trends—powered by Raoul Pal's AI avatar, Palvatar ⬜ In today's update, Palvatar highlights inflation as the market's main focus ahead of the upcoming Fed meeting, with delayed PCE data likely adding early-session volatility.

AI-driven investment, rising leverage and shifting market dynamics are reshaping the 2026 stock market outlook. As companies accelerate spending on data centers, chips and digital infrastructure, micro-level decisions are increasingly influencing the capital markets and broader economy.In this episode of The Bid, host Oscar Pulido speaks with Jean Boivin, Head of the BlackRock Investment Institute, about the major forces shaping the 2026 markets and investing landscape. Jean breaks down how AI-related capital expenditure is transforming growth patterns, why governments and companies may need to leverage up to finance large-scale projects, and how these trends interact with today's policy and market environment.They also explore the diversification mirage — the idea that in an economy driven by a few powerful megaforces, some strategies that appear diversified may actually be concentrated calls. Jean shares how this affects views on regional equity markets, fixed income trends and the evolving structure of global investing.

In this ABCD roundup, we break down why bitcoin may have settled back into the low-90s range despite volatile macro signals, whether Ethereum's upcoming Fusaka upgrade could catalyze a price rebound, and how BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF has quietly become the firm's most profitable product. We also hit the broader market tape, including Netflix's Warner Bros. acquisition news and the resurgence of VC "kingmaking," where oversized early-stage checks are anointing AI companies long before meaningful revenue.

Drinkin' Bros podcast host Dan Hollaway joins Bridget for an uncensored conversation about all the third rail topics you could ever ask for, from why we should probably just invade Mexico, to how 20 million illegals and BlackRock turned 29-year-old home-buyers into 40-year-old renters, the reality behind the horseshoe theory that brings together “Queers for Palestine” and actual Islamists, and Zohran Mamdani's "brown guilt." They explore how pure libertarianism was tried and failed during the founding of the United States, the truth about Trump's plan to bring manufacturing back to the US, why the Constitution is the best document ever written, his belief that people aren't stupid - they're ignorant, why a nation of strong men is a strong nation, and why he only offends people because they're delicate. Check out Dan's Substack - Offensive - https://bit.ly/WiW-Offensive --------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsor Links: - Transform your fitness with science based training.

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.

En la última hora de Capital Intereconomía, el equipo se trasladó al Madrid Investor Networking Day (MIND), el gran punto de encuentro del sector financiero y de la gestión de activos. Desde allí, el programa condujo dos mesas redondas y una entrevista especial con algunos de los principales líderes de la industria tecnológica y de inversión. La primera mesa, moderada por Susana Criado, reunió a Luis Nasser, WealthTech Consultant en Prometeia; Ángel Agudo, Chief Product Officer & Board Director en Clarity AI; y David Lozano Lucas, Fundador y CEO de Wealth Reader. Todos coincidieron en que la tecnología está redefiniendo el futuro del asesoramiento financiero, aportando eficiencia, personalización y transparencia. Los expertos destacaron cómo la inteligencia artificial, el big data y la automatización de procesos están permitiendo a las entidades ofrecer una experiencia de cliente más ágil y predictiva, y señalaron que la colaboración entre fintechs y gestoras tradicionales será esencial para mantener la competitividad en un entorno cada vez más regulado y digitalizado. En la segunda mesa, centrada en la transversalidad y el valor de las alianzas estratégicas, participaron Elena Guanter, Directora General Iberia y Latam de Candriam; David Anglés, Head of Marketing South Europe & France en Allianz Global Investors; André Themudo, Head of Wealth para Iberia en BlackRock; y Diego Rueda Moltó, Responsable de fondos de fondos y selección de fondos en Unicaja Asset Management. Los ponentes analizaron cómo la delegación de mandatos en gestoras especializadas está ganando peso por su capacidad de aportar diversificación, conocimiento sectorial y control de riesgos, especialmente en un momento en que la sostenibilidad, la IA y la gestión activa son factores diferenciales en la toma de decisiones de inversión. Para cerrar la jornada, Lorena Martínez-Olivares, Executive Director y Directora Comercial de J.P. Morgan Asset Management, ofreció una entrevista sobre el auge de los ETFs bajo el título “ETFs: del margen al centro del tablero”. Martínez-Olivares explicó cómo los fondos cotizados han pasado de ser instrumentos de nicho a ocupar un papel central en la gestión discrecional de carteras, gracias a su eficiencia, liquidez y transparencia. Además, destacó que el futuro del sector combinará gestión activa y pasiva con una integración cada vez mayor de criterios sostenibles y soluciones temáticas.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 041: JP Morgan & BlackRock's Coordinated Attack on MicroStrategy Exposed – Banking Cartel vs Michael Saylor's Bitcoin Empire | Brandon Keys (Green Candle)MicroStrategy (MSTR) is under full-scale assault. Brandon Keys, the on-chain wizard and voice behind Green Candle Investments, just dropped undeniable evidence that JP Morgan, Jamie Dimon, BlackRock, and Larry Fink are orchestrating a six-month coordinated attack to crush Michael Saylor's Bitcoin treasury strategy and stop corporations from ditching cash for Bitcoin forever. From sudden margin hikes and MSCI exclusions to “bit bonds” designed to funnel money away from MSTR, the banking cartel is terrified: if Saylor wins, they become obsolete. Yet despite the manipulation, Brandon reveals why this dip is the biggest buying opportunity in years and why, in the end, Bitcoin still wins.Key Topics:Timeline proof of the coordinated attack on MicroStrategy & Bitcoin treasury companiesWhy Jamie Dimon flipped from calling Bitcoin a “pet rock” to quietly attacking MSTRBlackRock & JP Morgan's $500 trillion endgame and “bit bonds” counterattackHow banks are debanking Bitcoin CEOs to reclaim controlOn-chain data showing whales are buying the dip while retail panicsWhy the death of the 4-year cycle is actually bullishSelf-custody: the only way to defeat the banking cartelMacro outlook: money printer incoming and why we're still insanely earlyChapters:00:00 Teaser – “It's been nothing less of a coordinated attack”01:39 Guest Intro – Brandon Keys (Green Candle)02:04 Jamie Dimon's 10-year war on Bitcoin03:28 JP Morgan's sudden margin hike & 25% MSTR drop04:41 MSCI ruling & billions in threatened outflows06:32 Naming only MicroStrategy out of 40 companies07:47 Banks terrified: companies can replace cash with Bitcoin09:14 BlackRock's “bit bonds” & borrow-against-iBit play10:19 The $500 trillion market Saylor is targeting11:08 Banking cartel united against Michael Saylor14:43 Debanking Bitcoin CEOs – Jack Mallers, Swan, Canada17:04 Global macro stress & Bitcoin as most liquid asset19:17 Whales accumulating, retail selling the dip22:09 Self-custody is Bitcoin's true power26:19 We are still insanely early in adoption32:31 Hold 4–5 years = zero fiat losses35:44 Money printer coming soon46:56 Tether, stablecoins & the new dollar recycling scheme52:28 Final message – Self-custody or get rekt by the cartelAbout Brandon Keys:Bitcoin strategist, on-chain analyst, and founder of Green Candle InvestmentsX: @Greencandleit; @keysopen_doorsGreen Candle YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@greencandlePrevious Episode:Bitcoin Privacy Under Attack – Dr. Jack Kruse: https://youtu.be/A0onGcn17fQ

Bitcoin's sudden flash crash has rattled markets as global liquidity tightens and Japan's bond market sends crisis-level warning signals. With 20-year JGB yields spiking toward historic stress points, the yen carry trade is rapidly unwinding and dragging risk assets with it. Gold is surging to six-week highs, Fed rate-cut odds are accelerating, and Trump's move to appoint a new Fed chair adds major uncertainty to the monetary outlook. At the same time, BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF has become its fastest-growing product of 2025, even as Tether faces renewed balance-sheet scrutiny and confidence across crypto wavers.

Go Woke, Go Broke: The Financial Backlash and Corporate Retreat — Charles Gasparino — Gasparino reports that woke capitalism is experiencing significant financial retrenchment as corporations suffer bottom-line consequences. BlackRock experienced approximately $14 billion in asset withdrawals, and financial institutions including Goldman Sachs are dismantling diversity programs. CEOs are systematically abandoning progressive political commitments as financial performance deteriorates, recognizing that woke agendas alienate the broader American consumer base. Home Depot founder Bernie Marcus contends that the ideological struggle continues and characterizes most CEOs who embraced wokeness as "cowards" reflexively following prevailing political sentiment. 1943

Woke Capitalism: Origins, ESG, DEI, and the Power of BlackRock — Charles Gasparino — Gasparino traces the origins of "woke capitalism," detailing how corporate America became an active institutional agent for progressive social change. This ideological shift, accelerated through boardroom political calculations, led to widespread adoption of corporate acronyms including ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) and DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion), redirecting corporate focus from shareholder returns toward stakeholder capitalism models. Larry Fink's BlackRockstrategically recognized that managing progressive-oriented investment funds could attract trillions in assets, positioning the firm as a powerful enforcer of these policies across corporate America. 1927

Bitcoin is stuck. The market feels heavy. Sentiment is terrible. And yet, none of the traditional bull-market top signals have fired. Not a single one. In Episode 796, Joel and Travis dig into one of the strangest phases Bitcoin has ever entered. A trillion dollars has fallen off the crypto market cap since early October, ETF flows have flipped negative, liquidity is thinning out, and institutions are repositioning. But at the same time, the larger macro picture, historical drawdowns, and long-term adoption trends point to something very different. Is this the end of the bull run? Or is this exactly what a mid-cycle flush looks like—painful, confusing, and full of mixed signals? In this episode we cover:• Why liquidity is disappearing and how it affects every chart• ETF outflows, BlackRock’s massive selling week, and what it really means• Why none of the historical bull-run peak indicators have triggered• How macro forces, Japan’s rate shifts, and global pressure ripple into crypto• What Apple, Nvidia, and on-device AI reveal about where the tech cycle is headed• Why Bitcoin repeat patterns matter—and why they don’t• The psychological trap of watching the market every day This is a grounded, straight-talk conversation about the state of the market — the kind of conversation Joel and Travis used to have before the podcast even existed.

High leverage in derivatives markets (funding rates flipped negative) created a cascade: one sell triggered stops, pulling prices lower and wiping out more positions. Weekend and low-volume trading exacerbated the drop—daily spot volume fell to $2 billion (vs. $50 billion peaks in 2021), making BTC vulnerable to amplified moves. A CME futures gap at $92K was filled, adding technical fuel. Sentiment gauges like the Fear & Greed Index hit "extreme fear" (score: 18), spurring retail panic. Notably, on-chain data reveals no major spot selling—exchanges hold fewer BTC now than at the peak—suggesting this is a "synthetic" flush via derivatives, not fundamental dumping. Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net outflows of $1.1 billion over the past 48 hours—the largest weekly redemptions since March 2025—driven by institutions like BlackRock's IBIT and Fidelity's FBTC.
