Podcasts about Blackstone

Today David explains how America transitioned from the biblical conception of law espoused by Bracton and Blackstone from the 13th through the 18th centuries to Jeremy Bentham’s positivistic, utilitarian conception of law embraced by Oliver Wendell Holmes who changed the conception of law held today by most Christian lawyers. The applicability in our day of quotes from Holmes over a century ago will be eye-opening. To paraphrase Dorothy’s comment to Toto, you don’t live in a Christian cosmos anymore.

The Pandemic Housing Boom saw a flood of institutional homebuying. Low interest rates, easy access to capital, soaring rents, and skyrocketing home values were just too good a deal for Wall Street types like Blackstone and iBuyer players like Opendoor Technologies to pass on. However, it seems that institutional homebuyers are pulling back. According to an analysis conducted by John Burns Research and Consulting, institutional investors — those owning over 1,000 homes — bought 90% fewer homes in January and February than they did in the first two months of 2022. Invitation Homes, the largest owner of U.S. single-family rental homes recently became a net seller. In the first quarter of 2023, Invitation Homes bought 194 homes while it sold off 297.In this episode of The Higher Standard, Chris and Saied examine this news and determine the effect it will have on the economy as a whole.They discuss the reasons that banks are going to choose to be strategic in the deployment of capital, partially because they want to keep as much of their balance sheets as possible, in case of a run on deposits, and partially because any loan they make today is going to be underwater if the Federal Reserve continues to increase rates.Chris and Saied look at news that shares of San Francisco-based PacWest Bancorp plunged after investors learned the regional bank was considering a sale. Despite thet fact that the bank has said it had not experienced a high number of customer withdrawals, the news still stoked fears of a potential surge in withdrawals among regional banks.They also offer some thoughts on the results of a survey from the National Federation of Independent Businesses (NFIB), a lobbying organization that represents small business owners nationwide, which shows that small business earnings rose to the highest levels in at least 45 years last month.Join Chris and Saied for this fascinating and informative conversation.Enjoy!What You'll Learn in this Show:Why the market is not concerned with interest rate increases.Why the US dollar needs to be the world's currency.Why the debt ceiling is going to have to be raised well before June 1.Why, in 2011, the debt ceiling crisis led to an S&P downgrade of US sovereign debt.And so much more...Resources:Wall Street is running away from the housing market.

Aaron Amuchastegui is a real estate investor, fund manager and software CEO who has bought and sold more than 1,000 foreclosed homes and owns 850 single-family rental properties.  Aaron made his way into the real estate market in 2005. As he watched the Great Recession gut the industry from 2008-2009, Aaron discovered an opportunity to purchase and flip foreclosed homes, pioneering a business venture that quickly led to delivering millions of dollars for investors.  Today, Aaron sits down with me to discuss the ins and outs of his decades-long real estate success story, including nitty-gritty details on the art of buying and flipping foreclosures, how new investors can enter the market, and how he bounced back from going to zero — twice.  You'll also hear how Aaron went toe-to-toe with investment management behemoth Blackstone, how he successfully added a software venture to his revenue mix, and which asset class investors with cash on the sidelines should be eyeing right now. Key Takeaways with Aaron Amuchastegui The story behind Aaron's journey beginning in the 2005 housing boom to the depths of the Great Recession to owning 850+ single-family homes in 2023 — and the lessons investors can learn from it.  The process of buying and flipping foreclosed homes — and how to enter that market today. The applicable lesson that large-scale real estate investors can learn from Blackstone's model. The secret to quick growth in real estate — and how to do it at scale. How Aaron positioned himself as a "picks and shovels" provider to run a software company that brings in 6-figure months. What asset class should investors with extra cash be looking at in the current environment? How can you determine who's worth learning from in real estate development? The bank-imposed parameters that can hamstring entrepreneurs trying to get a portfolio loan for real estate investing. How do the criteria for buying a single property vary when considered in the context of a total portfolio? How should investors set up the financial structure of a new rental fund? Tips for entrepreneurs who fall victim to shiny object syndrome.  How AI is impacting real estate investing. The life event that pushed Aaron from being an employee to an entrepreneur.

Responses to our new weekly Saxo Market Call Survey are pouring in. If you haven't accessed the survey yet, don't miss out on your chance to provide feedback and drive the content this Friday's podcast:  https://bit.ly/42jEiLg   - Link to slide deck: https://bit.ly/3nM683M   - In today's podcast, we note that, while today's US CPI release is the US data highlight of the week, that it is unlikely to drive a significant shift in forward Fed expectations unless there is a rather profound shock in the numbers (more likely on a hot number than a cooler one). Elsewhere, we talk Stanley Druckenmiller's imminent recession and "hard landing" call, the dire situation for US office REITS and dark clouds over Blackstone on the commercial real estate worries made worse by the recent bank turmoil, crude oil & grains, incoming earnings, and much more.

Banks have taken a backseat since the global financial crisis over a decade ago. Today, our new financial masters are asset managers, like Blackstone and BlackRock. And they don't just own financial assets. The roads we drive on; the pipes that supply our drinking water; the farmland that provides our food; energy systems for electricity and heat; hospitals, schools, and even the homes in which many of us live-all now swell asset managers' bulging investment portfolios. As the owners of more and more of the basic building blocks of everyday life, asset managers shape the lives of each and every one of us in profound and disturbing ways. In Our Lives in Their Portfolios: Why Asset Managers Own the World (Verso, 2023), Brett Christophers peels back the veil on "asset manager society." Asset managers, he shows, are unlike traditional owners of housing and other essential infrastructure. Buying and selling these life-supporting assets at a dizzying pace, the crux of their business model is not long-term investment and careful custodianship but making quick profits for themselves and the investors that back them. In asset manager society, the natural and built environments that sustain us become one more vehicle for siphoning money from the many to the few. Brett Christophers is a professor in the Department of Human Geography and the Institute for Housing and Urban Research at Uppsala University in Sweden. His previous books include The New Enclosure: The Appropriation of Public Land in Neoliberal Britain (2019) and Rentier Capitalism: Who Owns the Economy, and Who Pays for It?  (2020).  Brian Hamilton is chair of the Department of History and Social Science at Deerfield Academy. Twitter. Website.

Questions from the Flight Deck: What if the US Dollar is not the dominant world currency? https://www.visualcapitalist.com/cp/how-reserve-currencies-evolved-over-120-years/   Part 1: How to know how much FDIC insurance you have? https://edie.fdic.gov/calculator.html?  Should we be nervous about the banking system? There is no safer place... How much can I actually hold in my bank account, FDIC insured? See FCIC calculator. Why are banks and brokerage firms different? Banks accept deposits onto their balance sheet. When you deposit money, it becomes a liability for the bank. Brokers are middlemen. They hold your money (custodial relationship) and then allow you to buy investments. These do NOT go onto the broker's balance sheet. They take a little to “broker the sales” but do not own anything. You own the underlying investments. What would happen if Schwab went bankrupt? FDIC, SIPC. Rule 15c3-1, "Net Capital Rule" of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), makes it mandatory for brokerages to maintain a minimum amount of prescribed capital in liquid form. Rule 15c3-3, “Customer Protection Rule,” requires brokerage firms to keep client assets (both cash and securities) in a separate account from the firm's assets to avoid any confusion What does a broker (Schwab) do with our money versus what a bank does with our money? Bank invests and loans your money Schwab puts it in stocks that YOU own. Schwab doesn't hold them. Schwab can't do anything with your money. It's not even on their balance sheet. However, Schwab does have a banking component. A subsidiary of Charles Schwab. Schwab has several components, subsidiaries: ETFs, Mutuals Funds Custodian, Broker-Dealer  Banks Who controls money at ETFs, Mutual Funds... Securities of underlying funds are not held at Schwab, Vanguard. They hire and pay a custodian to keep these securities separate... Who WAS the same – Bernie Madoff. https://international.schwab.com/account-protection Broker collapsing versus broker theft... Protected up to US$600 million. The combined total of our SIPC coverage and our "excess SIPC" coverage means Schwab provides protection up to an aggregate of US$600 million, limited to a combined return of US$150 million per customer, up to US $1.15 million of which may be in cash. This protection becomes available in the event SIPC limits are exhausted. SIPC covers shares, not $$$ amounts: For example, if an investor is holding 200 shares of ABC Inc. originally purchased through a failed stock broker, SIPC will work to replace or restore the same number of shares to the investor. However, if the stock price plummets during the time the stock broker goes bust to the time that the SIPC steps in, the SIPC will not reimburse the money the investor lost.   Ron Berger: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wz64z1YuL0A&t=816s   Part 2: https://www.businesstrialgroup.com/practice-areas/securities-litigation/oil-gas-partnerships/  Why do we go after these types of investments? Are they necessary to be successful? Do they add diversification? Private REITs Land Investments Mineral Rights Oil and Gas LPs Why do they look so attractive? 10-12% annual Yield... Phoenix Capital Group... What does Yield mean? Early bank run on Blackstone last December but it is NOT a bank. This guys says it is OK but if you wanted your money out of it- you cannot have it https://seekingalpha.com/article/4563565-the-truth-about-blackstone  How do you value something? Are short sellers able to sell private securities easily. How do we know if the price is right, close to right or downright wrong. In public markets, is volatility a bug or a feature? “Fox watching the hen house” Fundrise claims that privately held outperform public markets but there are multiple issues with this kind of data: https://fundrise.com/education/why-private-markets-outperform-traditional-publicly-traded  Internal rate of return helps private equity firms but NOT always clients Are losers in private equity always captured in data? survivorship bias. What counts in private investment is the quality of people, trust, and the investments? How many private firms are zombies that still show value on balance sheets When the tide goes out... you see who swimming is nakedly. ..."But I get my 8%, 9% or 10% dividend : ) “ Where does the dividend come from? Wall Street moved from banks & public markets (active mutual funds) to private- why? Because that is where the story, the reputation, the glitz, can be manufactured- with out all this “nobody can beat the market stuff” That is where the money is in the roaring 20s.!

He speaks to the trend of consolidation within the CLO manager base, and addresses what factors can constrain a manager's ability to issue CLOs given the current volatile backdrop.

As the US banking crisis drags on, investors are starting to unearth risks within Charles Schwab that have been hiding in plain sight. Unrealized losses on the firm's balance sheet, loaded with long-dated bonds, ballooned to more than $29 billion last year. At the same time, higher interest rates are encouraging customers to move their cash out of certain accounts that underpin Schwab's business and bolster its bottom line.In this episode of The Higher Standard, Chris and Saied examine this news and determine the effect it will have on the economy as a whole.They discuss news that Credit Suisse, the collapsed Swiss bank taken over by UBS Group in a hastily arranged bailout, has provided a safe haven for wealthy American clients to hide assets from the IRS — even after it was caught and prosecuted for doing the same thing more than a decade ago, according two former Credit Suisse bankers who are working with the U.S. government as whistleblowers.Chris and Saied look at a report from the Labour Department, indicating that jobless claims for the week ended March 25 totaled 198,000, up 7,000 from the previous period and a bit higher than the 195,000 estimate.They also offer some thoughts on the recent news that Binance Holdings, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, and CEO Changpeng "CZ" Zhao, are being sued by a US regulator for allegedly breaking trading and derivatives rules. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission said Binance shirked its obligations by not properly registering with it.Join Chris and Saied for this fascinating and informative conversation.Enjoy!What You'll Learn in this Show:Where Silicon Valley Bank falls in line with the other banks across the country.How a company's market capitalization is estimated.Why pending home sales were up 0.8% month over month in February.The concept of a mansion tax.And so much more...Resources:"First Citizens shares soar 50% after the bank buys a large chunk of failed Silicon Valley Bank" (article from CNBC)"Where Financial Risk Lies, in 12 Charts" (article from The Wall Street Journal)"Charles Schwab's $7 trillion empire built on low rates is showing cracks" (Bloomberg Businessweek via Instagram)"Minneapolis Fed chair Neel Kashkari says "fundamentally, the banking system is sound"" (CBS News)Debt on Blackstone buildings 47% more than portfolio's worth" (The RealDeal via Instagram)"Apple plans to launch Apple Pay later - allowing users to split purchases into four payments with no additional fees” (Complex via Instagram)Nick Gerli via Twitter“Jobless claims edge up to 198,000, higher than expected”...

This episode, we swap out one legend of legal theory for another. Goodbye David, hello to our guest – the one and only Duncan Kennedy! As part of a course he's teaching at Yale Law School, Foundations of American Legal Thought, Sam interviewed Professor Kennedy in front of a live audience on March 8, 2023. Professor Kennedy, the Carter Professor of General Jurisprudence, Emeritus, at Harvard Law School, is a legal and social theorist and one of the founding members of the Critical Legal Studies movement. We learn about Professor Kennedy's experience as a student at Yale Law School (three cheers for insider baseball) and his experience with so-called generational revolt. Next, we turn to his academic accomplishments: Professor Kennedy discusses some of his early articles, which were instrumental in the origins of the so-called Critical Legal Studies movement. Finally, we conclude the conversation with a discussion of the Law and Political Economy movement. Many of our listeners might be familiar with LPE, and might even have wondered what the CLS vanguard have to say about it. Give this pod a listen to find out.

Understanding the Federal Reserve and How to Protect Your Money in the Digital Age In 1913, JP Morgan and others established the Federal Reserve, a private banking institution that controls monetary policy and loans trillions of dollars to the US government each year. Banks are allowed to loan out 10 times more money than they have on hand, and larger financial institutions are buying up assets and liquidating them at prices they decide. The government is buying up assets from a tech-driven bank and media reports can easily trick people into withdrawing their money. It's better to have money in larger banks since the government will protect it, and it is important to keep track of where your money is and use silica packs to protect it if you're keeping it at home. We're headed towards a digital currency which could come with some control issues, but it looks like it's inevitable. Key Lessons Banks are allowed to loan out 10 times more money than they have on hand. Larger financial institutions are buying up assets and liquidating them at prices they decide. Protecting your money may require using silica packs if you're keeping it at home. Summary A financial expert explains how the banking system works, how it affects people and stock prices, and suggests that people stack their cash for the next six months in order to prepare for potential financial losses. In 1913, JP Morgan and other tycoons met on Jekyll Island, Georgia, to establish the Federal Reserve, a private banking institution that was a major trick on U.S. citizens. Before 1913, communication was slow, so the government wasn't able to react quickly to the Federal Reserve's decisions. The Federal Reserve is not a federal institute but tells the government how much money to print The Federal Reserve creates and controls monetary policy, loaning trillions of dollars to the US government each year. Bank of America borrows money from the Fed at a 5% interest rate, which is used to pay the national debt. Banks are able to loan out 10X more money than they have on hand by getting a "banking license" from the Fed This process has led to some banks making bad decisions with their money, and the US government has had to bail out banks twice since I've been alive. Banks are being bought up by larger financial institutions, like Blackstone and Blackrock, and then they liquidate the assets at prices they decide to give to people with large amounts of money. Smaller people with money are also receiving offers to buy assets at discounted prices, showing that the bigger play is something to be wary of The government is buying up assets from a tech-driven bank, likely as a way to control the flow of information on tech sites. People reacted to media reports of the bank's potential failure by withdrawing their money, which caused a run on the bank. People were also fooled into buying unnecessary amounts of toilet paper due to media reports This shows how easy it is for the media and government to collude. Air is the only free thing on the planet, and if there is a threat to your money, it is better to have it in a larger bank like Bank of America, Chase, or Wells Fargo, as the government will protect it if it is taken. Smaller regional banks may be at risk, so it is important to keep track of where your money is The government won't let banks fail, so if you have money in one of them, chances are you're safe. But if you're keeping cash in your house, use silica packs to avoid moisture damage. We've gone from gold to paper money as a way to make carrying large amounts of money easier, and now we're headed toward digital currency This could come with some control issues, but it looks like it's inevitable.

With DTC sales in the US tripling over the past six years, shouldn't more brands deliver products right to customers' doors? What about if your products are bulky, made of metal, and often weigh more than 100 lbs?Today, hear how Blackstone Products, an outdoor griddle company, serves consumers through both B2B and DTC channels to maximize their reach in the marketplace. Joining Michelle and Alex from Blackstone is Supply Chain and Procurement Manager, Tom Newman. Having recently celebrated his one-year anniversary with the company, Tom has an extensive history of ensuring large items are delivered safely and reliably. In this episode, Tom highlights the importance of paying attention to the most minute details, how critical of a link overseas manufacturing partnerships are, and what steps Blackstone takes to meet the demands of both their product channels. If you're hungry, make sure you eat before putting on this episode, as the discussion also goes on to cover what sort of meals the team at Blackstone tests their griddles with. Stay tuned to the end of the episode to find out what Tom's favorite slope is out in Utah and what is on his mind regarding the future of Blackstone Products. —Guest BioTom Newman is the Supply Chain and Procurement Manager of Blackstone Products. He has been with the organization since March of 2022, and had loved the time he's spent with the team. The Blackstone Griddle came from the idea that while grilling is a global passion, at every BBQ there's always something that needs to be cooked inside, thus separating people from one another. So the outdoor griddle was born in 2008, with the company experience massive growth year after year since. Prior to Blackstone Products, Tom was the Director of Supply Chain Planning and Execution for iFit, a fitness company that pairs its workout equipment with a mobile application. Additionally, he's held roles at Campbell Scientific, Orbit, and General Motors. Needless to say, Tom has plenty of experience delivering large-scale items to customers. One huge advantage that Tom has had in his supply chain career? He decided to study Mandarin after his first experience in Taiwan back in college. Throughout his career, he's spent about 20 years in China, and credits this connection for allowing him to strengthen his relationships with overseas partners over the years. —Guest Quote“Supply chain is one of those agnostic fields where you bring whatever career background, whatever knowledge you have. And it will aid you in your work with supply chain. Come one, come all. It's open to anyone and you bring whatever knowledge you have and you apply it, and then you add to it.” - Tom Newman—Time Stamps*(2:51) A problem found in testing*(6:19) All about the Blackstone Griddles*(8:47) How is Blackstone doing DTC?*(12:25) Making B2B easier*(14:45) Pros and cons of direct import*(16:36) Why manufacturing is critical *(21:50) Tom's experience overseas*(26:36) Career advice*(28:10) Speed round*(30:52) Parting words about the future —SponsorThis podcast is powered by the team at Stord.
