Who's winning 2-0? Find out on this week's PlayingFTSE Show!Steve W's matched the S&P 500 this week and Steve D's not far behind. Despite some big movements, it's all pretty tight in the stock market this week.3i – one of the FTSE 100's top performers – crashed at the end of the week. It's been a bad year for private equity firms, but the company had been holding up well. Steve W thinks he knows what's going on. And it has less to do with the private equity theme than the ongoing retail theme of falling like-for-like sales growth…Steve D's been looking at Taylor Wimpey. The latest results look decent and the stock moved a little bit as a result, but there are probably bigger things going on for the firm.The UK Budget is on the way and there's plenty to focus on there. But is a 9% dividend yield part of the problem or something for investors to get excited about?QXO is a stock most UK investors probably don't have on their radars, but Steve W thinks they should. He's got his eye on a 500% gain in the next 10 years. The firm is planning to roll up the building materials industry and it has a CEO with a very impressive track record. There's a lot of eggs in a basket called “Brad Jacobs”, though.Tecnoglass has released its latest earnings and our resident shareholder - Steve D - is not impressed. Higher costs are weighing on margins and that's not a good sign. Should he cut bait with this one or wait around for a better environment? Steve W thinks it might still have some promise, but the big question is how long it takes to realise this.Only on this week's PlayingFTSE Podcast!► Get a free fractional share!This show is sponsored by Trading 212!

He says the minimum wage has gone up much faster than the price of coffee over the past decade. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

ITPM Flash provides insight into what professional traders are thinking about in the markets RIGHT NOW! In this episode Anthony Iser is looking past the noisy macro backdrop and backing a proven roll-up model in the fragmented building materials sector. Serial dealmaker and CEO Brad Jacobs has injected over $1B of his own capital in to QXO and is executing the same acquisition strategy that's delivered spectacular returns in the past. With the first deal already bedding in, $2B of fresh funding raised, and Wall Street only just initiating coverage, the stock looks primed for a rerating.

On the Mike Hosking Breakfast Full Show Podcast for Wednesday 24th of September, the promised Holiday Act changes have been announced. Who knew you accrued sick leave whilst on ACC or even if you only work an hour a week? The annual Mood of the Boardroom survey has been released and a majority of the Government has not been rated favourably – Nicola Willis responds. And on Politics Wednesday Ginny Andersen and Mark Mitchell talk the immigration changes, recognising Palestine, and who can give the best shout out.

There are still grey areas in the Government's proposed leave legislation. The Government's announced a new system to replace the 2003 Holidays Act. Coffee Club Director Brad Jacobs told Mike Hosking while some parts still need clarity, the proposal appears to solve many issues. He says as long as he's been in New Zealand, the Act has caused problems, and he's concerned by the long timeline ahead. Government systems may be slowing down the implementation of the new leave legislation. Jacobs told Hosking it will likely be three years before the new system —including an hourly accrual— is used. He says massive payroll providers should be able to build these systems faster, and it may be government systems that are the handbrake.

Chuck Zodda and Paul Lane believe Millennials are now at the consumer culture epicenter. Ernie Tedeschi, Director of Economics - Yale Budget Lab, joins the show to share his insight into tariffs impacts on the economy. Why did US tourism fail to slump like so many expected. Paul LaMonica, Barron's, joins the show to chat QXO and Brad Jacobs.

Christopher Tsai is a deeply thoughtful growth investor. He became one of the foremost collectors of the works of Ai Weiwei, recognising their implicit value and deeply studying the artist. His concentrated portfolio reflects his attraction to growth stocks with Tesla his largest position. In our conversation, he explains why he believes Tesla has deep moats across multiple verticals; why he thinks many of the growth stocks in his portfolio have optically inflated valuations as they invest now to create future value; why the second largest position in his portfolio is QXO, with his father, also a famous investor, being one of Brad Jacobs' original backers; and what he looks for in managers. I am trying to meet more growth investors to understand their strategy better. Christopher's portfolio is too racy for me, at over a 60x P/E multiple on my estimates when we recorded and probably higher today, but he makes an interesting case for holding long-term compounders.

Welcome to this classic episode. Classics are my favorite episodes from the past 10 years, published once a month. These are N of 1 conversations with N of 1 people. Brad Jacob's simple principle of "think big, move fast" is one I think about often. Brad's resumé is remarkable. He has founded seven companies, all of which are billion-dollar or multibillion-dollar businesses. He has done 500 M&A transactions and raised $30 billion of debt and equity capital. Currently, he is the Executive Chairman of XPO, a commercial trucking company that he started in 2011 and has grown into one of the largest logistics businesses in the world. He is a true force of nature, and I hope you enjoy his episode.

In this episode of the I Fired My Boss podcast, host Dan Claps dives into the transformative lessons he's picked up from a handful of impactful business books. Dan shares insights from titles like Grinding It Out by Ray Kroc, The Outsiders, How to Make a Few Billion Dollars by Brad Jacobs, and That Will Never Work by Netflix co-founder Marc Randolph. The episode zeroes in on the Netflix story, particularly Randolph's revelation that true company culture isn't about perks like hot tubs and ping-pong tables—but about giving brilliant, creative people the autonomy to solve meaningful problems. Dan connects this idea to his own leadership journey in franchising, emphasizing the importance of crafting a culture of trust, autonomy, and alignment around a common mission.Dan also reflects on broader lessons for entrepreneurs, including the importance of starting before you feel completely ready. Drawing parallels between Netflix's foresight in pivoting from DVDs to streaming and his own path into water restoration franchising, Dan underscores how being in the business gives you clarity you can't get from the outside. He encourages listeners not to overanalyze potential future challenges but to dive in, learn, and adapt. Whether you're considering launching a business or are already deep in the game, this episode offers a grounded yet inspiring perspective on leadership, culture-building, and the value of action over hesitation.

In this episode I'm excited to introduce you to Dr. Brad Jacobs, who is board certified in internal medicine and integrative medicine. He is the owner of BlueWave Medicine Clinic in Sausalito, California, and also co-author of the Anti-Inflammation Cookbook. He specializes in psychedelic medicine and a form of therapy called Hakomi. Dr. Brad is now leading in-person retreats in Costa Rica on precision medicine and longevity. We'll be talking about health transformation, longevity, and recovery from trauma by making diet changes to reduce inflammation and using psychedelic medicines. Dr. Brad has been involved with integrative medicine since he was 10 years old. He grew up doing martial arts, and that Chinese upbringing infused him with a different view of how to think about health and healing—not just the treatment of disease but the prevention of disease, thriving and flourishing. I'm so glad Dr. Brad was able to join me on How Humans Heal today to discuss these important topics to help all of you know what is possible for transforming your health and recovering from trauma.

Host Bradley Hartmann dives into the high-stakes drama unfolding between QXO, led by serial entrepreneur Brad Jacobs, and Beacon Roofing Supply. Jacobs is making an aggressive $11billion bid to acquire Beacon, setting the stage for a potential proxy fight. The discussion explores Jacobs' ambitious growth plans for QXO, the industry implications, the risks of such a hostile takeover attempt, and where his M&A tactics detailed in his book (How to Make a Few Billion Dollars) differ with his approaches to Rexel (September 2024) and Beacon. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the future of the construction supply industry and the strategies of disruptive leaders like Jacobs. Note: Since recording this episode, Beacon has adopted the poison pill strategy to defend against QXO's bid, making the takeover significantly more difficult and costly.    This episode is brought to you by The Simple Sales Pipeline® —the most efficient way to organize and value any construction sales rep's roster of customers and prospects in under 30 minutes once every 30 days. *** If you enjoyed this podcast, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts.

Invest Like the Best Key Takeaways  “In life, you learn very little when things go right. You learn a lot when things go wrong.” – Jared Kushner You cannot worry about the things that you cannot change; have radical acceptance and focus on the things that you can do to understand the problem better Focus on being long-term greedy: Create win-wins by convincing your counterparts, who have more leverage, to do something that you want to do by catering to their interests more than their sympathies or fearsFocus on the next deal instead of the last dollarTo understand what a person wants, you have to listen! Find the smartest people you can who have a vested interest in the situation, and ask them about their perspective“I wouldn't die for my beliefs because my beliefs might be wrong.” – Unknown Practice humility and always recheck your assumptionsTo be successful, you have to make three good decisions per yearThe foundational question Jared asks himself when faced with a challenging problem:“How would you want to be a role model for your children?” “Ultimately, I think the topic that will probably be the most impactful of the next four years will be how President Trump deals with artificial intelligence and what could be AGI or superintelligence, and how this is coming very rapidly.” – Jared Kushner Work should not be distributed; when you find something worthwhile, go all in on it Four investing principles: (1) Identify the big macro trends (2) Back phenomenal people and teams (3) Invest in businesses with structural advantages or moats (4) Be selective in where and who you invest withThe two most important questions to ask yourself are: What do you want and what are you solving for? Give everyone the benefit of the doubt; you never know what people are going through in a given moment Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgMy guest today is Jared Kushner.

Approximately one in three Americans has autoimmunity, according to our speaker, Dr. Sara Szal Gottfried, M.D. Conventional medicine falls short when it comes to both diagnosing and treating autoimmune conditions. In The Autoimmune Cure, by Dr. Gottfried, there is hope for the tens of millions of people who suffer from autoimmune disease. Dr. Gottfried explains the connection between trauma and autoimmunity, and has created a powerful program designed to break the vicious cycle of autoimmune disease, reset your immune system, and restore your health. About the Speakers Dr. Sara Szal Gottfried, M.D., is a physician, researcher, author, and educator. She graduated from Harvard Medical School and MIT, and completed residency at UCSF, but is more likely to prescribe a continuous glucose monitor and personalized nutrition plan than the latest pharmaceutical. Dr. Gottfried is an international keynote speaker and the author of four New York Times bestselling books about hormones, nutrition and health. She is clinical assistant professor in the Department of Integrative Medicine and Nutritional Sciences at Thomas Jefferson University, and director of precision medicine at the Marcus Institute of Integrative Health. Her focus is at the interface of mental and physical health, N-of-1 trial design, personalized molecular profiling, use of wearables, and how to leverage these tools to improve health outcomes. Dr. Brad Jacobs, M.D., M.P.H., A.B.O.I.M., is a recognized leader in conscious leadership, personal transformation and precision medicine. He is a Stanford-trained physician board-certified in internal medicine and integrative medicine and was the endowed professor and founding medical director of the University of California at San Francisco Osher Center for Integrative Medicine.

When most investors think of due diligence, they think of sifting through years of financial statements and crunching numbers to better understand a company's potential. Not many people think about interrogating senior executives and employees, and asking the right questions to figure out whether they're telling the truth about the business model. In this episode, we speak with Phil 'Dick' Houston, a veteran CIA officer who's been called the human lie detector. Phil literally wrote the book on how to spot lies, and has been a long-time collaborator of entrepreneur and serial acquirer Brad Jacobs, helping him with due diligence on both senior hires and potential investments. In this episode, Phil explains his strategy for identifying deceptive behavior and how it can be applied to the corporate world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Throughout his tenure, Brad Jacobs has built multiple billion-dollar companies. While there is no "playbook" for growing a business, he focuses on a few factors above all else in every company he operates, and in this conversation, he reveals them all. Shane and Jacobs discuss how to read anyone during an interview through a series of intentional questions, the exciting role of AI and technology in the future of business, and where money-making ideas hide in companies. Jacobs also shares how his training in math and music made him a better business operator, the one thing he focuses on to grow his businesses, how to spot big trends before everyone else, and the only thing a company should focus on for success. Brad Jacobs has started five companies from scratch and led each to become a billion-dollar or multibillion-dollar enterprise. These include three publicly traded companies: XPO Logistics, where he serves as Chairman and CEO, United Rentals, and United Waste Systems. Before starting XPO in 2011, Jacobs founded United Rentals in 1997 and led the company as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. In 1989, he founded United Waste Systems.   Watch the episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/theknowledgeproject/videos Newsletter - I share timeless insights and ideas you can use at work and home.
