Podcasts about buybacks

She told investors $440M. The real number was $15.7M. This week: the CaaStle fraud, Walmart's Subway play, and Shopify's $5B bet.In this episode:Walmart + Subway. Walmart folded Subway into its delivery app, with express orders coming off the Subway counters already sitting inside its stores. Live now in six states (Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas), with roughly 1,400 locations targeted by end of summer. Flat delivery fee, in-store menu pricing, 30 minutes or less. It rides on the Spark drivers and drones Walmart is already paying for, pointed straight at Uber Eats and DoorDash.The CaaStle fraud. CaaStle told investors it booked $440 million in net revenue for fiscal 2023. The real figure was $15.7 million. Founder and CEO Christine Hunsicker confessed to doctoring the financials on a video call with her board in December 2024, then kept her job for three more months while investors heard nothing. She controlled that board. Co-founder Jaswinder Pal "JP" Singh sold $6 million in stock back to the company around the time investors started asking questions. Hunsicker pleaded guilty to securities fraud in March, admitting she defrauded investors of $283 million, and she's scheduled for sentencing this summer.Apple rents the brains. At WWDC on June 8, Apple introduced Siri AI: a rebuild that reads what's on your screen, pulls context from your messages and email, and takes actions across apps. The part Apple said less about is who's powering it. Reporting puts Apple at more than $1 billion a year to Google for a custom Gemini model running Siri's cloud features. The China rollout waits on regulators. For a company that has spent decades insisting it owns its entire stack, renting the model from a rival is the real headline. Tim Cook hands the company to John Ternus in September.Shopify's $5 billion vote. Shopify added $3 billion to its repurchase program on June 2, taking total authorization to $5 billion. Buybacks usually get read as "we've run out of ideas." Then Q1 revenue rose 34% to $3.2 billion and merchants cleared $100 billion in GMV for the second quarter in a row. Decide for yourself which signal you believe.

Join at 7investing.com/subscribe Salesforce (NYSE:CRM) just reported $11 billion in Q1 fiscal 2027 revenue, and the stock is still trading at less than 13x free cash flow, a valuation that Salesforce itself apparently finds too cheap. The company borrowed $25 billion in a single quarter to execute an accelerated share repurchase, reducing its diluted share count by 10% in 90 days as part of a $50 billion buyback authorization. Simon Erickson breaks down why this is one of the most aggressive and under-appreciated capital return stories in enterprise software right now.Beyond the buyback, the real growth engine is Agentforce, Salesforce's AI agentic platform, which is tripling year over year and now generating $3.4 billion in annual recurring revenue combined with its Data 360 customer record platform. With 1.6 billion agentic work unit interactions already logged and a $67 billion remaining performance obligation backlog, Salesforce is positioning itself as the largest and most embedded AI enterprise software platform in the world, one that has spent two decades accumulating the customer data that AI agents actually need to work properly.Simon argues Salesforce has successfully navigated the transition that's destroyed many SaaS peers: moving from per-seat licensing to usage-based AI credits, internalizing AI to reallocate 4,000 customer service jobs into revenue-generating roles, and growing its AI revenue at 200% year over year. With a long-term target of $63 billion in fiscal 2030 revenue (already raised from $60B), a growing dividend, and a management team putting real capital behind the buyback, this is a very different company than the hyper-growth Salesforce of a decade ago, and possibly a more reliable one for long-term investors.0:00 - Introduction and Overview of Salesforce's business1:13 - Review of Q1 2027 results4:36 - A closer look at the Agentforce AI platform6:48 - Why Salesforce is an "Underappreciated Winner in the AI Software World"7:55 - Investor Day Commitments for Fiscal 20309:48 - Why Salesforce's Accelerated Repurchase Plan is important11:06 - Review of Salesforce as an investment opportunity12:20 - Q&A and audience questionsStocks MentionedSalesforce (NYSE:CRM)Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:PLTR)Oracle (NYSE:ORCL)Informatica (NYSE:INFA) — acquired by Salesforce#Salesforce #CRM #AIAgents #EnterpriseAI #SaaSStocks #TechStocks #ShareBuyback #StockAnalysis #Q1Earnings #GrowthStocks #StocksToWatch #InvestingIn2026 #7investing #Simonerickson

My guest today is Dara Khosrowshahi, the CEO of Uber. Before Uber, Dara ran Expedia for thirteen years. We start with why he took this job in 2017, and a big part of that story is Daniel Ek, who told him that life is not about happiness, it is about impact. We talk about what the chaos felt like on day one, and how his family leaving Iran when he was nine shaped the way he handles pressure today.  We spend most of our time on autonomous vehicles and Uber's role as the demand aggregator in a world of physical AI. Dara explains why Uber is a supply-led company, what it will take to win, and why he expects many winners in AVs rather than one.  We also discuss Uber's $10 billion in free cash flow, the push toward a single app for everything, and what he has learned from Allen & Co, Barry Diller and Reed Hastings.

Nvidia was tot nu toe een van de sloomste chipaandelen van het jaar. Intel, AMD, Samsung, SK Hynix en zelfs ons eigen Besi fietsten de gifgroene chipreus lachend voorbij. Maar misschien is dat nu voorbij! Het bedrijf komt met een nieuwe superchip en dat betekent - naar eigen zeggen - een heel nieuw tijdperk voor computers. Het betekent in ieder geval flinke pijn voor beleggers in Qualcomm en Intel. Iets verderop zitten beleggers in Arm, Microsoft, ServiceNow en Hewlett Packard juist feest te vieren. We bespreken waarom. Verder doet de opvolger van Warren Buffett zijn eerste overname, in een totaal andere business: huizen bouwen in de VS. We bekijken waarom Berkshire opeens 6.8 miljard dollar in een sector plempt waar het kroonjuweel van Buffett al flinke belangen in heeft. Gast Erik Mauritz heeft het te doen met Greg Abel, die moeilijk in de voetsporen van het Orakel van Omaha kan treden. Maar toch ziet hij in Berkshire Hathaway een van de betere manieren om jezelf te beschermen tegen oververhitte AI-aandelen wereldwijd. Oh ja, en vlák voor uitzending diende Anthropic nog even de vertrouwelijke documenten in voor zijn beursgang. Nondeju!

NEAR keeps showing up in strange places: cross-chain wallets, privacy apps, AI infrastructure, and now the emerging agent economy. Sal Ternullo, CEO of SVRN, joins us to explain why he thinks this is not another NEAR pivot, but the original thesis finally coming into focus. They dig into NEAR Intents, AI money, tokenomics, privacy, fee capture, agentic commerce, and why SVRN is trying to commercialize the NEAR ecosystem rather than simply hold the asset. ---

Something big is happening in corporate America, and it's barely making headlines. In this episode of Off The Wall, David B. Armstrong, CFA and Nate Tonsager, CIPM, CFA break down one of the most interesting stories in Q1 earnings: companies are pouring money into long-term growth instead of handing it back to shareholders. CapEx is up 38%. Buybacks? Up just 1%. They unpack what that means, who's doing the spending, and why the 35-year playbook of returning cash to shareholders may be getting rewritten. Then the conversation shifts to the Fed. Chairman Powell is out, and Kevin Warsh is in. Dave and Nate walk through who Warsh is, why his background is an important piece of the conversation, and what a more flexible, less predictable Fed chair could mean for interest rates, inflation, and your wealth strategy. Finally, they tackle a listener question about using AI to evaluate a portfolio. It's a genuinely useful data collection tool when applied correctly. But when a study shows AI trading bots losing a third of their capital in two weeks across 32 separate tests, the limits become hard to ignore. Dave and Nate break down exactly where AI earns its place in the investment process, where it falls short, and how Monument is actually applying it when it comes to managing your portfolio.       Please see important podcast disclosure information at https://monumentwealthmanagement.com/disclosures   Episode Timeline/Key Highlights:   0:00 - Disclosures and Quick Premise  0:26 - AMA Agenda and Market Backdrop  1:46 - Earnings Surprise: CapEx Beats Buybacks  4:06 - Hyperscalers and the AI Spend Cycle  8:12 - Momentum Over Predictions in Portfolios  19:54 - Market Seasonality, Iran, and Staying Invested  23:23 - New Fed Chair and Independence  32:14 - Inflation, Oil, and Rate Decision Uncertainty  36:46 - AI Use Cases and Hallucination Risk  46:22 - Why Trading Bots Often Lose Money  48:06 - Send Questions, Subscribe, and Closing   Connect with Monument Wealth Management:    Visit our website: https://monumentwealthmanagement.com/   Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/monumentwealth/#   Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/monument-wealth-management/   Connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MonumentWealthManagement   Connect on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/MonumentWealth#Fit   Subscribe to our Private Wealth Newsletter: https://monumentwealthmanagement.com/subscribe/   Check out our Between Sips Podcast: Where Money Meets Meaning Because money without meaning never feels like wealth. https://monumentwealthmanagement.com/between-sips-podcast/   About "Off the Wall":    Markets are noisy.

Jordan Rusche, Founder of Mining Stock Monkey, joins us for an in-depth and nuanced discussion around key metrics and trends in Q1 earnings reports from the gold and silver producers and PM royalty companies; along with which companies he is actively trading in his portfolio.    We start out getting Jordan's perspectives from this Q1 earnings season in the PM producers, touching upon initiatives around paying down debt, share buybacks, and dividends.  We counterbalance those trends with how companies are also investing in growth through mergers and acquisitions. We discuss some general takeaways in the earnings reports from how the majors are managing increasing costs from higher fuel costs to labor to sustaining capital in Newmont Corporation (NYSE: NEM, ASX: NEM, PNGX: NEM), Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE:B)(TSX:ABX), and Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE: AEM) (TSX: AEM) . We check in on the positive market reaction in the Q1 report from B2Gold Corp. (TSX: BTO, NYSE AMERICAN: BTG, NSX: B2G), but Jordan also couches the enthusiasm with the fundamental factors pointing to the potential for rising AISC figures for the balance of this year. Jordan breaks down why Agnico Eagle paid a premium for Rupert Resources Ltd (TSX: RUP) (OTCQX: RUPRF) (FSE:R05), in the recent acquisition of their project in Finland. Next we shifted over to the record revenues witnessed in Q1 earnings reports from the royalty and streaming companies.  While revenues are up in a big way, that is not typically been from growing gold equivalent ounces (GEOs).  Jordan highlights the longer-term investing thesis required to realize the growth potential in production metrics in a company like Royal Gold, Inc. (NASDAQ: RGLD). Sticking with royalty companies, Jordan highlights the strong copper exposure and future growth on tap across multiple commodities in Elemental Royalty Corporation (TSXV: ELE) (NASDAQ: ELE).      Get 25% off Mining Stock Monkey VIP. {Limited to 10 sign ups}: https://miningstockmonkey.com/products/vip?promo=KE25MAY     Sign up for Jordan's free “Silverback Letter” here: https://miningstockmonkey.substack.com     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Today's guest is Samuel Hartzmark, a finance professor at Boston College. In today's episode, Sam explores why dividends are so often misunderstood by investors. He explains the “free dividends fallacy” and how it can lead to inflated valuations and price dislocations. He also examines the tradeoffs between dividends and buybacks and how payout policies influence investor behavior. To close, Sam briefly touches on his research on prediction markets and ESG.

This week on the podcast, our guest is Rich Kruger, President and Chief Executive Officer of Suncor Energy Inc. Rich explains key messages from the company's recent Investor Day presentation, including its transformation in safety, operations, and financial metrics over the past three years.   Here are some of the questions that Peter and Jackie asked Rich: What is Suncor's production now, and what is your 3-year growth plan?  How do oil sands costs stack up against U.S. shale? How much capital are you returning to shareholders, and how do you respond to criticism that Suncor should be investing more capital in Canada versus sending it to investors?

Most investors see stock buybacks as a simple bullish signal. Companies are confident. Prices go up. Everyone wins. That belief is incomplete. In this episode, we unpack what buybacks actually represent beneath the surface—and why they may matter far more than most investors realize. Yes, buybacks can support share prices. But more importantly, they reduce the number of ownership opportunities available in the market. Fewer shares. Concentrated ownership. Less access. This isn't just about individual stocks. It's about a structural shift. As companies generate more cash and rely less on external capital, they are actively reclaiming ownership from the public. At the same time, technological efficiency—especially AI—is reducing the need for labor while increasing the value of ownership. The result? A widening gap between those who own productive assets and those who rely on earned income. This episode explores why many investors are optimizing for the wrong thing, how buybacks signal a deeper transition in the economy, and what it means to "participate" in business at the lowest—and most powerful—level. Because the real question isn't whether buybacks are bullish. It's whether you're on the side selling ownership—or accumulating it.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 061: Macro Legends on Oil, the Breaking US Treasury Market, and the Dollar Crisis No One Is Ready For | Luke Gromen & Lyn AldenIran doesn't have to beat the US military. They just have to beat the US Treasury market — and that changes everything you think you know about this conflict.The Strait of Hormuz is the chokepoint for roughly 20% of the world's oil supply, and right now it sits at the center of a geopolitical storm with consequences that reach far beyond the Middle East. In this deep-dive interview, we break down exactly how a Hormuz disruption cascades into oil price spikes, supply chain breakdowns, and a inflation surge that puts the US dollar's reserve status under unprecedented pressure. You'll understand why this conflict is as much a financial war as a military one, what it means for energy markets in 2026, and why Bitcoin's role as a neutral, non-sovereign asset has never been more relevant. Whether you're trying to protect your wealth or just make sense of the headlines, this conversation gives you the framework to think clearly when the noise is loudest.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 – Iran Doesn't Need to Beat the Military, Just the Treasury 1:10 – Episode Intro with Luke Gromen & Lyn Alden 1:25 – Oil Prices, Futures Curve & Hormuz Crisis 2:10 – Will Hormuz Opening Fix Everything? 3:53 – Mid-May Deadline & Escalating Impact 8:02 – Supply Chain Fragility & Non-Linear Breaks 14:14 – The Upside-Down Global Economy (You Can't Print Oil) 15:31 – Food Shortages & Global South Risks 18:35 – Inflation, Money Printing & Debt Spiral 20:04 – Why the US Must Print Money in 2026 24:10 – Treasury Market Stress & Buybacks 32:11 – Japan, China & Dollar Pressure 43:52 – Why Are We Really in This Conflict? 1:09:12 – Petrodollar Under Pressure & Gold-for-Oil 1:13:59 – Best & Worst Case Scenarios 1:26:54 – Bitcoin's Role Right Now 1:32:23 – Final Thoughts & Where to Find Luke & LynFollow Luke:X: @LukeGromenWebsite & Research: fftt-llc.comNewsletter: fftt-treerings.comFollow Lyn:X: @LynAldenContactWebsite & Free Newsletter: lynalden.com

When oil prices spike nearly 30% in a matter of days and a weak jobs report hits on the same Friday, the word on every investor’s mind is stagflation. On this episode of The Financial Hour of the Tom Dupree Show, host Tom Dupree, James Dupree, and Mike Johnson break down how the Middle East conflict is rippling through oil markets, what it means for interest rates and inflation, and why personalized investment management matters more than ever when volatility takes center stage. Whether you’re thinking about retirement or already drawing income from your portfolio, the current environment is a powerful reminder that how your money is managed — and who manages it — can make the difference between weathering the storm and watching your principal erode. How the Middle East Conflict Is Driving Oil Prices and Market Turbulence The most immediate market impact from the conflict between Israel, the U.S., and Iran has been felt in energy prices. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude surged from roughly $72 per barrel to touch $92, according to data tracked by the U.S. Energy Information Administration — a move of nearly 30% in just days. Mike Johnson explained the supply dynamics at play: “Kuwait — they’re cutting oil production. And this is because the Strait of Hormuz is cut off for all practical purposes. These big producers are running out of storage for the oil. They’re essentially closing up the wells.” The Strait of Hormuz handles approximately one-fifth of all global oil shipments daily. With roughly 90 million barrels of crude produced worldwide each day, shutting down that corridor has massive supply implications. Tom Dupree noted the physical challenge: “What keeps an oil well going is the oil flowing through all the little capillaries. When that gets turned off, it starts to sludge up.” Restarting shut-in wells can take days to weeks, and operators risk losing pressure and production permanently. For those tracking market commentary on gasoline prices, Mike pointed out a critical consumer threshold: “When you get to about $3.50 a gallon, that’s when you start seeing an impact on spending in a more meaningful way. And then $4 is when things start getting much worse in terms of consumer spending.” Stagflation Fears: Why One Jobs Report Has Investors on Edge The Friday jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics came in weaker than expected, and the combination of rising commodity prices with a slowing labor market triggered immediate stagflation concerns across Wall Street. As Mike explained: “The market’s immediate knee-jerk reaction was that terrible S-word — stagflation. If we have a slowing economy with higher commodity prices, you have inflation and a slowing economy.” Tom was quick to add perspective: “One jobs number does not stagflation make. It’s a trend. But the fact that oil’s going up is gonna be considered inflationary, and then you get that jobs report on top of it.” Despite the volatility — with the market opening down 1.5% on Monday before recovering, followed by a sharp Tuesday sell-off — the broader indices showed resilience for the week. Mike observed: “We’ve essentially declared war. You’ve got oil prices up 30%. The market’s only off a little bit for the week. It’s been resilient as a whole.” This kind of choppy, bifurcated market is exactly why a disciplined investment philosophy matters. When risk-on and risk-off signals get scrambled day to day, reactive investors often make the wrong moves at the worst times. AI and the Job Market: Disruption Is Real, But It’s Not All Bad The conversation turned to how artificial intelligence is reshaping the employment landscape and what it means for market sentiment. James Dupree offered a nuanced take on the weak jobs data: “The AI stocks — they don’t really tie that to the economy because AI is going to replace jobs. So it might actually be good if there’s a bad jobs report for those AI stocks.” Mike broke down where the disruption is hitting hardest: “Some of your more tenured and senior workers — they’re benefiting from AI. What it’s impacting are the entry-level jobs. The number crunchers, entry-level analysts — those are the type of things that are able to be AI-ed away.” Tom drew a historical parallel: “AI is obviously the big thing right now. It’s the same way that the dot-com stuff was 20-something years ago. There will be winners and there will be losers, but I happen to believe that AI may actually create jobs because there will be more things that people can do.” For investors, the takeaway is that AI-related stocks occupy a unique space in the current market. James pointed to NVIDIA’s forward P/E ratio of 22 — below the S&P 500’s five-year average of roughly 23 — as evidence that some of the market’s fastest-growing companies are actually reasonably valued despite the broader market looking stretched. Sequence of Returns Risk: The Retirement Danger Most People Don’t See Coming Perhaps the most critical segment of the episode focused on a concept that every person in retirement or thinking about retirement needs to understand: sequence of returns risk. This is the idea that when your returns happen matters just as much as what they average over time — especially when you’re withdrawing money from your portfolio. Mike walked through a clear example: “Let’s say you have a million dollars and you’re drawing 4%, which is $40,000 a year. In the first year, the market goes down by 10% — your million dollars is now $900,000 plus you took out $40,000. So now you’re at $860,000. The next year, another 10% drop — down another $86,000 plus the $40,000 you withdrew. You have to get massive rises in the stock market to get back to even.” He continued: “There comes a point of no return where you’re forced to lower your withdrawal. If a million dollars is now $700,000 and you’re taking out $40,000, that’s now a 5.5% withdrawal rate. It’s negative compounding.” This is one of the core reasons the team at Dupree Financial Group structures retirement portfolios around dividend-paying investments. Tom explained the logic: “Sequence of returns is one reason why we invest for dividends — so that if the sequence of the return is negative, we may not have to be in a position to sell stocks in a down market. We can draw from the dividends.” For anyone approaching retirement or already drawing income, understanding this risk is essential. Resources from FINRA’s investor education center offer additional background on managing withdrawal strategies and retirement income planning. Berkshire Hathaway Under Greg Abel: Culture, Buybacks, and Alignment The episode also covered Berkshire Hathaway’s transition to new leadership under Greg Abel, who took over from Warren Buffett. Abel’s first annual letter to shareholders ran 18 pages — longer than Buffett’s typical letters — and signaled a leadership style rooted in operational detail and cultural preservation. Mike highlighted two significant announcements. First, Berkshire is resuming share buybacks for the first time since May 2024. Second, Abel is investing 100% of his post-tax salary — roughly $15 million per year — into Berkshire stock personally. “It’s all about alignment with shareholders,” Mike said. “It fits the Berkshire culture to a T.” The team also discussed Abel’s emphasis on corporate culture as a lasting competitive advantage. As Abel wrote in his shareholder letter, “Culture is our most treasured asset.” Tom connected that philosophy to Dupree Financial Group’s own approach: “We’ve worked to earn the trust of our clients and we have to keep working to keep that.” Historical Market Returns After Geopolitical Events Mike shared data that puts the current conflict in long-term perspective. Looking at one-year returns following major geopolitical events, the numbers are striking: 11.2% after the Korean War, 27% after the Cuban Missile Crisis, 13% after the Six-Day War, 10% after the Gulf War, nearly 27% after the invasion of Iraq, 19% after the Brexit vote, and 43% in the year following COVID-19. However, Tom added an important caveat for retirees: “What about the 30% drop that came before that? Individuals have to look at sequence of return, not just the long-term averages.” This distinction between how a static portfolio and a retirement portfolio respond to volatility is central to Dupree Financial Group’s investment philosophy — building portfolios of quality, dividend-paying companies in separately managed accounts where each client owns their individual stocks rather than being pooled into a mutual fund. Key Takeaways from This Episode Oil prices have surged nearly 30% due to Strait of Hormuz disruptions, with WTI crude jumping from $72 to $92 per barrel, creating ripple effects across the global economy. Stagflation fears are rising as weak jobs data combines with inflationary energy prices, though one report alone doesn’t confirm a trend. The $3.50 gas price threshold is where consumer spending starts to contract meaningfully — and $4 per gallon is where it gets significantly worse. Sequence of returns risk is more important than average returns for anyone in retirement or approaching it — early losses combined with withdrawals create negative compounding that can be devastating. Dividend investing provides a buffer during market downturns by allowing retirees to draw income without being forced to sell stocks at depressed prices. AI is reshaping the job market, benefiting senior workers while displacing entry-level roles, and creating a unique dynamic for tech stock valuations. Berkshire Hathaway’s Greg Abel is resuming share buybacks and investing his entire post-tax salary in Berkshire stock, signaling strong alignment with shareholders. Diversification across sectors — including energy exposure — helps portfolios weather geopolitical shocks through negative correlation benefits. Frequently Asked Questions How do rising oil prices affect my retirement portfolio? Rising oil prices can trigger inflation, which erodes purchasing power and can hurt broad market returns. However, portfolios with energy sector exposure may benefit from higher commodity prices. The key is having a diversified, actively managed portfolio that can adapt to changing market conditions rather than being locked into a one-size-fits-all approach. What is sequence of returns risk and why does it matter? Sequence of returns risk refers to the danger that poor market returns early in retirement — combined with portfolio withdrawals — can permanently damage your nest egg, even if long-term average returns are positive. A $1 million portfolio losing 10% while withdrawing $40,000 drops to $860,000 in year one, making recovery increasingly difficult. This is why income-focused strategies using dividends can help reduce the need to sell during downturns. Should I be worried about stagflation? One weak jobs report alongside rising oil prices raises the question, but stagflation requires a sustained trend of economic stagnation paired with persistent inflation. The current market has shown resilience despite the volatility. That said, having a portfolio strategy that accounts for inflation protection — through dividend growth stocks and diversified sector exposure — is prudent regardless of the economic outlook. How is AI affecting investment opportunities right now? AI-related stocks are trading somewhat independently from broader economic indicators. Companies like NVIDIA are showing strong earnings growth with forward valuations actually below the S&P 500 average. AI is displacing some entry-level jobs while creating opportunities for more experienced workers, making it a complex but potentially rewarding area for long-term investors. What did Berkshire Hathaway’s new leader announce? Greg Abel, who succeeded Warren Buffett, announced that Berkshire would resume share buybacks and that he would personally invest 100% of his post-tax salary — approximately $15 million annually — into Berkshire stock. His 18-page shareholder letter emphasized operational detail and cultural preservation as his top priorities. Don’t Let Market Noise Derail Your Retirement When oil prices surge, jobs data disappoints, and geopolitical uncertainty dominates the headlines, it’s easy to feel like the ground is shifting beneath your feet. But reactive investing — selling in a panic or chasing the latest trend — is one of the biggest threats to a retirement portfolio. At Dupree Financial Group, every client gets a separately managed account with direct access to their portfolio managers — not an assigned counselor at a call center. Your portfolio is built around your retirement timeline, your income needs, and your risk tolerance, with quality dividend-paying companies that provide income even when markets get choppy.

United Parks & Resorts reported fiscal 2025 results this week; Revenue, attendance, net income, EBITDA were all down. "Our fiscal 2025 results did not meet our expectations. While the consumer environment was uneven and our results were impacted by negative international tourism trends and volatile weather during certain peak visitation periods, we should have delivered better results, particularly on the cost side of the income statement," CEO Marc Swanson said during the earnings call. The earnings call, however, spent relatively little time on what went wrong in the parks. Instead, the company debuted a supplemental investor presentation focused on the value of its real estate, the replacement cost of its assets, and why the stock is undervalued. The company has spent $247 million on stock buybacks over the past 14 months, while cutting expansion CapEx nearly in half.Watch bonus episodes on Patreon.

Dr. Beckett and Rich Klein discuss Topps' “75 Greatest Cards” list finalized over a Zoom call with industry and hobby voices (including Nat Turner, writer Tim Kurkjian, collector Evan Longoria, historian John Thorn, Fanatics CEO Mike Mahan, and others). Josh Hall writes in criticizing the list for recognizing Barry Bonds and for placing Paul Skenes' card between legends like Jackie Robinson and Nolan Ryan in the top ten. Beckett explains why modern players must be represented, and they compare the process to Mike Payne's 1997 “300 Greatest Baseball Cards” book, and argues Skenes merits inclusion due to hobby relevance and sales, while noting career outcomes are uncertain. They cover how the top 10 was balloted and tabulated, Beckett's push for more Ohtani and Judge, and the importance of redemption “hits” that won't disappoint collectors. They debate including the Aurelio Rodriguez Bat Boy error card, Rich shares an anecdote about a 2006 Topps Heritage wrong-photo card signed “that's not me,” and critiques design choices that make names/numbers hard to read. The conversation also touches on buybacks, the hobby's shift toward hits over rediscovered commons, and how grading/pop reports influence list perception (including his view that a Topps Griffey “rookie” shouldn't outrank the iconic 1989 Upper Deck). Beckett addresses the tension between player popularity and performance, defends Bonds as having broken rules rather than committing “crimes against humanity,” and says he didn't rank Bonds in his own top 10, while noting Nolan Ryan's popularity despite a less-stellar win–loss record. They praise Topps/Fanatics' marketing savvy and both credit friend and longtime Topps' Clay Luraschi as a key behind-the-scenes contributor to the broader list that was narrowed down.   01:57 Why Modern Stars Belong 02:41 Inside the Voting and Making Redemption Cards Exciting 06:55 Buybacks vs. “Hits” in the Modern Hobby 07:41 Nat Turner/Grading/Pop Reports Shaping the Rankings 10:42 Barry Bonds Debate: Popularity vs Performance  

Warren Pies, founder of 3Fourteen Research, lays out his thesis for a "Goldilocks" first half of 2026, characterized by growth inflecting higher alongside continued disinflation — a very equity-positive environment. However, Warren identifies four key risks testing the market's delicate balance: vanishing MAG7 buybacks due to AI capex, software's existential disruption, Kevin Warsh's Fed nomination (which he calls "the worst pick for investors"), and precious metals volatility. Despite these headwinds, Warren argues the most bearish narratives are overdone. He notes that software has moved from overvalued to fairly valued, that post-GFC markets have returned double digits in every year with buyback contractions, and that extreme return dispersion near all-time highs historically resolves in six-month rallies. His core investment thesis: "When disruption is the risk, own that which cannot be disrupted" — rotate from bonds into commodities as the ideal portfolio hedge. Warren maintains his equity overweight, expects the bull case to remain intact through H1, and sees the recent rotation as healthy rather than ominous.Links: https://www.3fourteenresearch.com/https://x.com/WarrenPiesTimestamps: 0:00 Intro and welcome back Warren Pies 1:16 Macro picture: The secular debasement regime 3:30 Goldilocks for H1 2026 — growth up, inflation down 5:38 Four risks to the delicate balance 12:34 Is the market healthier than people think?

In Episode 405, Ken and Dave discuss the mess in Minnesota, a real reduction in Georgia's state income tax, 2026 legislative priorities, the Secret Service investigating Marjorie Taylor Greene, Trump's war on capitalism, and buying Greenland. Georgia Political Landscape Stacey Abrams Will Not Run for Governor Again Stacey Abrams announced she will not run for a third term as governor. The hosts said her decision is already fueling speculation about who she may support in future statewide races, with Jason Esteves and Keisha Lance Bottoms discussed as potential beneficiaries of her backing. The hosts described Abrams as politically "toxic" after two losses to Governor Brian Kemp. Senate and State Races: Ossoff Outlook The hosts predicted Senator Jon Ossoff will win reelection in November, citing what they described as a lack of strong Republican challengers. They mentioned Mike Collins and Derek Dooley as possible GOP names to watch. Georgia General Assembly Back for 40-Day Session The Georgia General Assembly is back for its constitutionally limited 40-day legislative session. The hosts suggested lawmakers may aim to finish early (potentially by mid-March) so legislators can shift into campaign mode ahead of the May primary. Tax Reform Proposals and Property Tax Debate A Senate committee proposal discussed by the hosts would eliminate state income tax on the first $50,000 for individuals and $100,000 for joint filers by 2027. House Speaker Jon Burns' priorities were described as improving literacy, strengthening the medical workforce, and reducing property tax burdens. The hosts debated whether Georgia can realistically reduce both income and property taxes at the same time. One idea raised by Pullin was freezing property assessments at the time of purchase. National Policy and Trump's "War on Capitalism" Institutional Housing Ban Proposal Trump proposed barring large institutional investors from buying single-family homes. The hosts agreed institutional ownership can be a problem in places like Atlanta, but argued the President lacks the constitutional authority for such a ban. They also warned a sudden forced divestment could destabilize the housing market. Defense Industry Restrictions: Dividends, Buybacks, and Executive Pay Trump also suggested banning defense contractors from issuing dividends or conducting stock buybacks until production speeds improve, and proposed capping executive pay at $5 million. The hosts viewed these ideas as federal overreach into private company operations. Renewed Discussion of Buying Greenland The hosts also discussed renewed conversation about the U.S. purchasing Greenland from Denmark for strategic military reasons. They said Marco Rubio is reportedly planning to discuss the issue with Danish officials. Law Enforcement and Legal Issues ICE Shooting in Minneapolis Renee Nicole Good was shot and killed by ICE agents after she allegedly drove her vehicle toward an agent while agents were attempting to detain her for obstructing their operations. The hosts debated whether deadly force was necessary and argued agents should avoid standing in front of moving vehicles to reduce the risk of escalations. Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) and Leak Allegations The hosts said Trump reportedly sent the Secret Service to investigate whether Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene leaked his dinner location to protesters. Greene denied the claim, but the hosts argued she is effectively "done" in politics following her resignation. Theodore Hamby Expected to Plead Guilty The suspended official Theodore Hamby is expected to enter a guilty plea this week. The hosts also remarked that his resignation letter appeared to be written with AI tools. "The Mule" of the Week The "Mule" title went to a former Hampton Inn in Lake View, Minnesota. According to the hosts, a franchisee or employee refused to house ICE agents despite Hilton having a government contract. Hilton reportedly pulled the location's accreditation, and the Hampton Inn signage was removed within 48 hours.

The Chopping Block unpacks crypto's DATpocalypse — NAVs collapsing, volumes drying up, and consolidation on the horizon. Plus: Vitalik sparks a wave of quantum panic, what Q-Day really means for Bitcoin and smart-contract chains, and why “qubits per share” might become the next great crypto meme. Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This episode opens with the DATpocalypse: almost every DAT is now below NAV, volumes have collapsed outside Bitmine and MicroStrategy, and the market is finally confronting what happens when issuances outrun demand. We get into consolidation talk, preferred-share experiments, capital-structure pivots, and whether any DAT should actually be selling crypto to buy back shares at a discount. Then we shift into quantum mania. Vitalik's “2028” comment lit up Q-Day fears, and we separate genuine hardware progress from pure panic. We discuss why post-quantum upgrades are simple for Bitcoin but brutal for stateful chains, and how hype alone could trigger a wave of “quantum-resistant” speculation. And yes — the running gag: DATs using quantum machines to steal Satoshi's coins. Tough markets, weird narratives, and institutions quietly holding the line. Let's get into it. Show highlights

In this episode, we sit down with Victor Haghani, founder of Elm Wealth and one of the original partners at LTCM, to explore his journey from running complex hedge fund strategies to adopting a simplified, evidence-based investment approach. We discuss how investors should think about expected returns, portfolio construction, dynamic asset allocation, valuation signals, buybacks, managed futures, and the dangers of extrapolating past returns into the future.Topics covered:• Victor's journey from LTCM to simple, systematic investing• Why position sizing is as important as what you own• How to think about expected returns and valuation frameworks like CAPE and P-CAPE• The role of risk, risk premia, and personal utility in portfolio decisions• Why 60/40 and the permanent portfolio ignore expected returns• Buybacks, market elasticity, and capital flows• Indexing misconceptions and asset allocation discipline• The ETF structure and tax efficiency in asset allocation strategies• Concentration in large tech stocks and long-term equity returns• The importance of dynamic asset allocation vs static allocation• Key lessons for individual investors and avoiding “too good to be true” opportunities Timestamps:00:00 Intro and Victor's investing journey03:00 Lessons from LTCM and shift to simplicity09:00 Position sizing vs asset selection13:00 Risk as a cost and thinking in expected returns18:00 CAPE and the P-CAPE framework26:00 How to use expected return estimates34:00 The impact of buybacks on equity markets39:00 Indexing vs poor asset allocation habits43:00 Portfolio construction and global diversification46:00 Why the permanent portfolio falls short47:00 Managed futures and factors beyond stocks and bonds50:00 Inside Elm's dynamic allocation ETF55:00 Market concentration and equity issuance risks01:01:00 The case for dynamic allocation01:02:50 Victor's one investing lesson

Anthony Scilipoti is one of the sharpest minds in investing. He's the President and CEO of Veritas Group of Companies. He called the collapses of both Valeant Pharmaceuticals and Nortel before they happened, and now he has some thoughts on AI. We talk about asking better questions, reading the fine print, the role of short selling, and what it means to be wrong. We explore why AI gives you information but not insight, why cheap risk is often the most expensive, and why nothing matters until it does. It's a conversation about the difference between seeing and understanding and the discipline to notice what everyone else ignores. This episode is not investment advice. It's time to listen and learn. ----- About Anthony Anthony Scilipoti is one of the sharpest minds in investing.

In today's episode on 16th September 2025, we ask: are stock buybacks really value creation or just short term applause?

Altcoin froth meets political theater. The team dissects World Liberty Financial's explosive debut: a $22B token backed by the Trump family, a disputed Aave partnership, insider buybacks, and a “gold paper” instead of a whitepaper. We break down Justin Sun's role, why critics call it crypto's “garbage moat,” and how WLFi could become the Thanksgiving dinner debate of 2025. Plus: Gavin Newsom's meme coin tease, GDP data going on-chain, and the CFTC reopening U.S. markets to global exchanges. Welcome to The Chopping Block – where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week, the crew dives into the wild debut of World Liberty Financial — Trump's $22B DeFi token that launched with a “gold paper,” insider allocations, and buybacks despite no product. We break down the Trump family's $5B paper fortune, the disputed Aave deal, and whether WLFi is a serious stablecoin project or just another garbage fire in crypto's moat. From Justin Sun's backing to Thanksgiving dinner debates, we unpack what WLFi means for politics, memes, and markets. Then we zoom out to Gavin Newsom's meme coin tease, the U.S. Commerce Department posting GDP on-chain, and fresh CFTC moves that could reshape crypto exchanges and ETFs. Show highlights
