Many think Private Credit has elevated risks, but the economy is strong and borrowers have healthy balance sheets. One of the least hyped but most interesting areas of credit are special situations and distressed debt. The potential for alpha, mid-teen returns is significant, but it requires precision. Distressed debt requires understanding legal frameworks, financial health, and industry landscapes. Dan Bird, founder of Thornwood Hill LLP, specializes in credit and alternative asset management. Dan has a proven track record in direct lending, special opportunities, and distressed debt, generating strong returns for his clients. Dan identifies strategic investment opportunities with optimal risk management.

Investors have short memories—until the talk of a “bubble” resurfaces. We take investors on a quick trip down memory lane, discussing the infamous dot-com bubble of the late ‘90s and early 2000s, as well as the housing bubbled that appeared a few years later. These bubbles were fueled by sky-high optimism and wild speculation about transformative technologies. In the dot-com era, investors rushed into any company with a “.com” at the end of its name, confident the internet would change the world. But not all of these companies survived. The lesson is that when a game-changing technology new technology appears, you still have to do your due diligence to come out on top. [bctt tweet="AI stocks are the new #investing gold rush…but are you panning for gold or about to hit a bust? I break down the REAL risks of betting big on #tech giants—and why most #investors miss what matters in a bubble" username="wellensscott"] The Age of AI: Bubble or Breakthrough? The “Magnificent Seven” (Google, Meta/Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Nvidia, Tesla, and Microsoft) are pouring billions into AI. Their 2025 returns, as catalogued by Scott Wellands, were impressive, with the group averaging over 20%, outperforming the S&P 500. Yet, such meteoric rises echo the euphoria of past bubbles. But excitement alone doesn't make a bubble—overvaluation does. Valuation: How Expensive is Too Expensive? A key measure is the price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, a classic way to judge if a company's stock price is justified by its profits. Take Tesla, for example: at the end of 2025, it traded at roughly $450 per share but earned only $1.50 per share, putting its P/E near 304. Compared to Toyota's P/E of about 10, that's nosebleed territory. The S&P 500's long-term average P/E sits around 20—a point of reference emphasizing just how stretched AI-heavy stocks may be. The Magnificent Seven's average P/E now hovers around 68, more than triple the broader market's historic average and well above the S&P's “other 493” companies. While high valuations don't guarantee a crash, they signal that expectations are sky-high and that disappointment could be costly. Picking Winners, Dodging Losers You can't invest in AI itself; you invest in companies riding the AI wave. History shows many won't make it. That's why betting everything on a few horses is extremely risky, even if their role in AI seems promising today. Over-concentration lurks as a hidden threat. If you own a standard S&P 500 index fund, 35% of your portfolio sits in the Magnificent Seven. For tech-heavy indices like the Nasdaq, that figure climbs to 54%. A stumble for these stars—already started in early 2025—can spell big trouble for portfolios tied too closely to their fortunes. [bctt tweet="No one has a crystal ball for the next #AI bubble—but family stewards can stack the odds. I reveal three ways to build #wealth using AI safely—and why a diversified #portfolio is your family's best hope for lasting wealth" username="wellensscott"] The Case for Global Diversification So how can investors harness AI's upside without exposing themselves to catastrophic risk? In a portfolio spanning thousands of companies worldwide across different sectors and asset classes, your exposure to the Magnificent Seven (and thus to AI) drops to about 20%. This cushions your wealth from the fallout if today's leaders falter and gives you a stake in the next wave of winners, wherever they arise.

In this Decoding Academia episode, we take a look at a 2025 paper by Daria Ovsyannikova, Victoria Olden, and Mickey Inzlicht, asking a question that might make some people uncomfortable/angry, specifically, are AI-generated responses perceived as more empathetic than those written by actual humans?We walk through the design in detail (including why this is a genuinely severe test), hand out deserved open-science brownie points, and discuss why AI seems to excel particularly when responding to negative or distress-laden prompts. Along the way, Chris reflects on his unsettlingly intense relationship with Google's semi-sentient customer-service agent “Bubbles,” and we ask whether infinite patience, maximal effort, and zero social awkwardness might be doing most of the work here.This is not a paper about replacing therapists, outsourcing friendship, or mass-producing compassion at scale. It is a careful demonstration that fluent, effortful, emotionally calibrated text is often enough to convince people they are being understood, which might explain some of the appeal of the Gurus.SourceOvsyannikova, D., de Mello, V.

Eric Anderson, partner at VC firm Scale, talks about why coding agents changed software forever and why the AI bubble can't be avoided. Eric worked on Spot Instances at AWS and data products at Google before becoming a VC. He explains how companies can still compete against Anthropic and OpenAI by staying laser-focused instead of fighting on every front.Corey and Eric discuss why AWS didn't kill all startups even when they launched competing products, why the AI bubble can't be avoided when companies go from $1 billion to $7 billion in revenue in one year, and why the best AI products don't scream “AI” everywhere in their marketing.Show Highlights:(02:30) Building Spot Instances at AWS(07:41) Why Coding Agents Changed Everything(10:35) Agents Doing Code Review Now(13:53) Competing with Frontier Labs(17:05) Why AWS Didn't Kill All Startups(19:01) Finding the Right Front to Fight On(22:20) Why the Bubble Is Inevitable(23:36) AI Pricing Will Eventually Crash(26:33) Honeycomb's AI Done Right(28:04) Where to Find EricLinks: Scale: https://www.scalevp.com/Eric on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericmand/Sponsored by: duckbillhq.com

Investors are poking at a potential AI bubble but haven't been able to burst it yet, says Kevin Mahn. He thinks traders should be looking at the companies that are receiving AI capex rather than the companies spending it, arguing the growth opportunities are there this year. However, he wouldn't count Mag 7 names like Microsoft (MSFT) out yet. He believes the AI revolution is a “long and winding road” with plenty of “potholes” ahead. He highlights Comfort Systems (FIX) and Duke Energy (DUK), Emcor (EME), Taiwan Semi (TSM) and NuScale Power (SMR).======== 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 – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

She says, “I don't feel safe.”He hears the words… but doesn't know what they actually mean in her nervous system.In this episode we finally explain what that sentence really means, why it shows up even in good relationships, and exactly how to build the “couple bubble” — the invisible forcefield that makes her (and him) feel safe again, even when life gets hard.We also talk about why principles beat rules every time, and we give you powerful journaling prompts so you can start creating your own guarantees of safety this week.This is the episode that turns understanding into something you can both feel in your body.Key Takeaways“I don't feel safe” is rarely about the relationship being unsafe — it's about the nervous system no longer feeling regulated by your partner.The couple bubble is the practical way you turn safety from a concept into a felt experience.Principles (chosen because they're good and right for you personally) outlast rules (followed only out of fear or consequences).Both partners must be able to defend a principle selfishly for themselves first — otherwise it's just a stick, not a carrot.The bubble is a pact: we agree to do things for each other that no one else would be willing to do.Your Homework – Do This WeekPart 1 – Journal privately (10–15 minutes each)What guarantees would you like to receive from your partner inside the bubble? (Be specific. What would make you feel truly safe, even on your worst day?)What guarantees would you like to give your partner? (What are you willing to promise, for your own reasons, because it aligns with the person you want to be?)What principles do you already live by in your personal life (outside the relationship) that you would love to bring into your couple bubble?Looking back, where has your bubble felt leaky in the past? What principle could have protected it?Part 2 – Talk together (no phones, no distractions)Share what you wrote. Listen with curiosity. No defending or fixing. Ask each other:“Why would this principle be good and right for you personally — even if I weren't in the picture?”That conversation itself starts building the bubble.ResourcesWired for Love by Stan Tatkin – the book that introduced the couple bubble conceptIn Each Other's Care by Stan Tatkin – his newest, most practical guide to turning these ideas into daily habitsFull list of Stan Tatkin's Ten Commandments HERENext WeekHow to predict and plan for the mistakes we all make — and set up guardrails that protect the bubble when life gets messy.Rate and ReviewIf this episode finally helped you understand what “I don't feel safe” really means, please follow, leave us a 5-star rating...

Markets had a little “AI anxiety attack” this week and Wall Street responded the only way it knows how: smash the sell button and ask questions later. We break down the $285B Anthropic-fueled rout, why the “automation boom” is starting to look like an entry-level job extinction event, and how Big Tech's data-center dreams are already colliding with tighter financing and very real layoff math (looking at you, Oracle). Then we zoom out to the part nobody wants to talk about at cocktail parties: job cuts flashing red, wages getting blamed for everything, and a housing market that's still wildly unaffordable because the underlying problem never left — it just changed outfits. Add a little bitcoin weakness for spice, and you've got Episode 321: the reality check Wall Street didn't order, but absolutely needs.

Aman Verjee, Founder and General Partner at Practical Venture Capital, shares his view of how venture capital has evolved over the past two decades and why secondary markets now play a critical role in the ecosystem. Drawing from his time at PayPal, eBay, and Sonos, Aman explains how companies today stay private far longer than they used to, what that means for early investors and employees, and how thoughtfully structured secondary transactions can reduce friction and misalignment on the cap table. He also challenges popular narratives around tech bubbles, walking through historical examples to explain why today's AI-driven market looks fundamentally different.In this episode, you'll learn:[01:11] Aman's journey from Wall Street to Practical VC[03:40] What made the early PayPal team exceptional[06:32] Follow the customer, not the original plan[10:44] Why are startups staying private longer today?[11:17] What secondary transactions actually are[18:41] How founders should handle secondary requests[26:11] Are we in a tech bubble today?The nonprofit organization Aman is passionate about: AYSO (American Youth Soccer Organization)About Aman VerjeeAman Verjee is the Founder and General Partner of Practical Venture Capital, a secondary-focused fund providing liquidity to early investors in late-stage private companies. Before launching Practical VC, Aman spent over a decade in finance and operations roles at PayPal and eBay, joining PayPal in 2001 before its IPO and witnessing its transformation from a money-beaming mobile app to the dominant payment platform for eBay. Earlier, he worked in investment banking in New York after studying economics at Stanford and constitutional law at Harvard Law School. Aman was recruited to PayPal by Peter Thiel and worked directly for David Sachs during the company's pivotal early years. Now partnering with Dave McClure, he focuses on Series C and D investments in SaaS and FinTech companies with $200M+ in revenue and clear paths to liquidity within 5-7 years. He's also writing a book on the history of financial bubbles and co-hosts the Trading Places podcast, analyzing private company valuations.About Practical Venture CapitalPractical Venture Capital is a secondary-focused venture firm that provides liquidity solutions for early investors, employees, and funds. Operating with a 7-year fund structure instead of the traditional 10-15 years, Practical VC targets 20-40% discounts to last-round valuations in Series C and D companies with $200M+ in revenue and clear paths to exit. The firm specializes in SaaS and FinTech but has made exceptions for exceptional opportunities like SpaceX, now their biggest winner despite violating their typical investment criteria. Founded by Aman Verjee and Dave McClure, Practical VC evaluates roughly 50 companies at any given time, making 5-10 investments annually. The firm also offers SPVs for deals that don't fit their main fund and covers LATAM opportunities through an operating partner in Argentina. Their approach recognizes that modern venture capital requires new liquidity solutions as companies like SpaceX (23 years private), Airbnb (17 years), and Palantir (20 years) redefine what "patient capital" means.Subscribe to our podcast and stay tuned for our next episode.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes William Rhind to the show. William is the Founder and CEO of GraniteShares. Rhind provides insights into the current market landscape, emphasizing the early stages of AI development and the potential for significant transformation across various sectors. Regarding market volatility, Rhind attributes recent fluctuations to multiple factors, including potential Federal Reserve leadership changes, cryptocurrency market movements, and concerns about AI’s impact on software companies. He argues that we are in the early stages of AI development, with significant potential for innovation and disruption across industries. Rhind highlights the ongoing bull market for hard assets, driven by global economic uncertainties, central bank buying, and concerns about currency debasement. He notes that emerging market central banks are actively diversifying their reserves by purchasing gold, viewing it as a strategic hedge against paper currencies. Platinum receives special attention, with Rhind explaining its unique market dynamics. He points out that platinum is about 30 times rarer than gold and currently sits in a market deficit. The metal’s future looks promising, particularly as previous bearish sentiment around internal combustion engines has dissipated and industrial demand remains strong. Rhind suggests that while passive investing has benefits, too much concentration can potentially create market inefficiencies. He advocates for a “core and satellite” approach to investing, balancing long-term retirement strategies with more speculative investments.

As a 18-year veteran of the ETF industry with experience working at, building and running, well-established successful ETF businesses, he made a keen observation: investing just isn't as exciting as it once was. He asked himself, how do you bring back that excitement? As an experienced entrepreneur, he decided to answer that question by launching his own ETF company – GraniteShares was born. Will's focus on disrupting the financial industry has taken GraniteShares from an idea to a successful start-up garnering the attention of Bain Capital and other well-known ETF investors who support his passion to create products that will change the way people see investing. Will spends his time outside of GraniteShares with his wife and three children. He's on the Board of Directors of the Bath University Foundation, has a passion for classic cars, Manchester United, and travel – especially back to his roots in Aberdeen, Scotland, “The Granite City.” Will has over 25 years of experience in the industry.
