It was a pleasure to host a conversation with Hari Krishnan, Head of Volatility Strategies at SCT Capital, on the changing nature of volatility markets, portfolio hedging, and why commodities may offer increasingly valuable diversification in today's environment. Hari reflects on his book Second Leg Down, which explores practical approaches to tail-risk hedging and the cyclical nature of volatility. He discusses how investors often ignore protection in calm periods, only to rush toward hedges after markets have already repriced risk. That dynamic leads to a broader conversation on planning, budgeting, and approaching hedging as an ongoing portfolio discipline rather than a reactive decision. We then turn to option markets more broadly, including volatility risk premium, skew, and the challenge of protecting against fat-tailed outcomes. Hari explains why moderately out-of-the-money options often embed persistent premium, while deeper tail risks can be difficult to price with confidence. The conversation then shifts to commodities, where Hari sees a differentiated opportunity set. We discuss how producer hedging, end-user demand, and forward-curve dynamics create a very different volatility ecosystem than that in equities. He outlines a strategy focused on gaining long exposure to select commodities while using options structures to reduce carry costs and preserve upside convexity. We close with a discussion on cross-asset dislocations, the recent divergence between oil, gold, and equities, the role of commodities in a world where bonds may be less defensive, and how AI tools are accelerating research, customization, and hypothesis testing across markets. I hope you enjoy this episode of the Alpha Exchange, my conversation with Hari Krishnan.
In this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Tim Travis, Founder and CIO of T&T Capital Management, to discuss where today's biggest market disconnects may be creating opportunity - from REITs and BDCs trading at distressed valuations to overlooked microcaps priced for far worse outcomes than fundamentals suggest. Tim shares how his value investing approach has evolved beyond traditional “cigar butt” investing toward a more dynamic, sum-of-the-parts framework, why options strategies can create an edge in volatile markets, and how he's thinking about management quality, survivability, and AI's growing impact on both investing and entrepreneurship. We mention several companies and sectors during this conversation, and I'm not a shareholder in any of them.

My guest today is Richard Patton. For me, this conversation is a real treat. I've known Richard from early in my investment career – over 20 years ago. At that time, Richard was the founder and Portfolio Manager of a Nashville-based event driven hedge fund called Courage Capital. He was then and still remains one of the most interesting and singular investors I've had the pleasure of meeting. While he has the education chops from Vanderbilt and Harvard, Richard marches to the beat of his own music. Courage Capital has evolved and focused its expertise on the white space of investment opportunity. That includes music royalties, small business lending and healthcare. As we'll learn in today's podcast, healthcare – the largest part of the US economy remains remarkably inefficient. As Richard walks us through his strategy, he has me alternatively laughing, curious, and optimistic as we talk about Nashville, the Small Business Administration, staffing for MRI techs, and how radioactive isotopes are used to treat tumors. Enjoy the conversation.

Oral Arguments for the Court of Appeals for the First Circuit
Tenerife Real Estate Holdings, LLC v. WM Capital Management, Inc.
Ryan Modesto, CEO & portfolio manager at i2i Capital Management, shares his outlook on North American Equities.
Amidst these very uncertain times in the economy, geopolitics, and asset prices, it was excellent to welcome Alberto Gallo, founder and CIO of Andromeda Capital Management, back to the Alpha Exchange. Our conversation first considers the long arc of post-crisis monetary policy. Here, Alberto argues that extended quantitative easing, while stabilizing in the short run, carried structural side effects over time—capital misallocation, corporate consolidation, and widening inequality. He notes that central bank balance sheets remain large and that markets today send mixed signals: stability in rates and credit alongside strength in precious metals. We then turn to Andromeda's approach to finding value in credit markets. Alberto frames bonds as embedded short-volatility instruments and describes a strategy that seeks asymmetric gain-to-loss profiles, liquidity, and convexity. A major focus is the rapid expansion of private credit—five-year lockups, high-single-digit returns achieved in benign conditions, sector concentration in technology, and insurer ownership structures. With spreads near multi-decade tights, he questions whether investors are adequately compensated for default, liquidity, and volatility risk. We close on AI-driven capex, fiscal dominance, and elevated debt levels. Alberto frames the future as a distribution with meaningful tails and argues that current pricing reflects limited uncertainty at a moment of structural transition.

In this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I'm joined by Jim Zimmerman, Founder & Fund Manager, and Abby Zimmerman, Research Analyst, of Lowell Capital Management to talk about their disciplined small-cap strategy built around what they call the “Fort Knox” balance sheet. At its core, it's about owning resilient, cash-generative businesses with little to no debt—companies that can not only survive volatility but use it to their advantage. We dive into why they focus on operating cash flow over EBITDA, how they hunt for overlooked “boring” niche leaders trading at value prices, what they look for in management teams, and why constant re-underwriting—“buy and homework,” not just buy and hold—is critical to long-term compounding in microcaps. We mention several companies and sectors during this conversation, and I'm not a shareholder in any of them.

In this episode of the Robertson + Easterling podcast, Craig Robertson is joined by new podcast sponsor Ethan and Stephanie Kelly of Providence Capital Management for a practical, wide-ranging conversation about estate planning, wealth management, insurance and retirement strategies. This discussion is designed for anyone who wants a clearer understanding of how financial decisions made today shape long-term stability—whether you are navigating a major life transition like divorce or simply trying to be more intentional about your future. Together, they break down complex topics like estate planning instruments, as well as a discussion about retirement and beneficiary designations in a way that is approachable and grounded in real life. Ethan and Stephanie bring a fiduciary perspective focused on clarity, coordination, and thoughtful planning as opposed to fear or urgency. This episode is not about reacting to crisis. It is about understanding the systems that protect your family, your assets, and your long-term goals without government interference, and learning how legal and financial planning works best when aligned.

NOTHING YOU HEAR IS INVESTMENT ADVICE. THIS IS EDUCATION/ENTERTAINMENT ONLY. I hope you guys enjoy my podcast with Timothy Call of Capital Management Corp. Tim spends his time finding and investing in unloved small-caps that lead their little market niches. These companies are often down a lot over the past year, trade at low valuation multiples, and pay shareholders via dividends/buybacks/and debt reduction. I love this podcast because Tim uses three trade ideas that are all different. One's a consumer health company, another is a school supplies manufacturer, and another one is a gold miner. If you like new idea generation, you will love this podcast. NOTHING YOU HEAR IS INVESTMENT ADVICE. THIS IS EDUCATION/ENTERTAINMENT ONLY.
Glenn Jessome, President & CEO of Silver Tiger Metals (TSX.V:SLVR – OTCQX:SLVTF), joins us for a comprehensive update on all the development work going on at ground level now that the Company has secured all of the required approvals and permits from the Mexican Federal Environmental Department (“SEMARNAT”) to construct the El Tigre Stockwork Silver-Gold Project in Sonora, Mexico. We also discuss the upcoming underground PEA, set for release later this month, the coming regional drill programs to the north and south of El Tigre, and the capital management flexibility that the company has moving into 2026. With all approvals for the Project now granted, Silver Tiger is advancing the El Tigre Project towards construction over the 18-month plan, as outlined in the October 2024 Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS) for the Project. Glenn shares with us the many earlier-stage initiatives their operations team, led by VP of Operations, Francisco Albelais, was working on for the last half of 2025, like building the 365 day per year haulage road, and the 6 months of detailed engineering work that is mostly completed and gives them a large head start on hitting the ground running now that the permit is in hand. Glenn highlights that in addition to more land clearing and surface earth works, that a key initiative is optimizing the road already built with a new bridge currently in review with engineering and slated to be built over the next few months. Another priority is the building of the camp to house all the staff that will be working on-site from here on out. Additionally, there will be water wells completed, and all the workstreams that flow into the final engineering plan. All of this derisking sets the company up for even better debt terms, and gives them a huge head start into the eventual mine construction beginning over the course of this year. We also recap all the exploration, development, and derisking work that has gone into the upcoming imminent release of the Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for the underground mine, set to release to the market later in January. The team at Silver Tiger has been compiling the last 5 years of work delineating the 113 million ounces of silver equivalent resources in the high-grade veins, shale, and sulphide zones underground portion of El Tigre, the metallurgical studies, and engineering work to be able to release the upcoming PEA early in Q1. This report will center around the already permitted underground scenario utilizing an 800 tonnes-per-day (tpd) mill, and focusing on the initial first 10 years of mine life. With regards to the capital management strategy, and the coming debt term sheets and how the company will fund the remaining capex for the mine build, Glenn shares the flexibility and optionality that their team now has, after having raised CAD$40 Million bought deal financing with a syndicate of underwriters led by BMO Capital Markets and Stifel Nicolaus Canada in the late Fall last year. When combined with the ~CAD$30 million the company already had in their treasury, they essentially have a large percentage of the US$85 million capex needed to build the bulk tonnage surface mine at El Tigre. This means that they can negotiate less restrictive debt covenants, giving them the flexibility to keep pursuing work on the underground strategy, as well as regional exploration to the north and south of El Tigre.

Who wins the battle?Program judges Shana Sissel at Banríon Capital Management and Tony Dong, an independent ETF analyst examine this ETF battle between TOPT (BlackRock), CNEQ (Alger) and BKCG (BNY).

Find out who wins the battle!#ETF #investing #stockmarket #concentration*********ETF Battles is sponsored by Direxion Direxion Daily Leveraged & Inverse ETFs. Know the risks. Proceed Boldly.

The first half was a story of volatility driven by tariffs, while fears of an economic downturn and monetary policy are the most recent concerns facing investors according to Shana Sissel of Banríon Capital Management. Sissel thinks fear of an A.I. bubble are overblown as the massive investments into A.I. are not leading to massive margin expansions like during the Dotcom Bubble. She sees Bitcoin's recent sell-off as a buying opportunity as the broadening institutionalization of crypto means there are long-term tailwinds for the asset class.======== 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

My guest on the show today is Balkar Sivia, Founder & Portfolio Manager at White Falcon Capital Management. In this episode, Balkar shares his unique path from engineering to investing, and why he built White Falcon around an unconstrained, opportunistic philosophy — one that rejects traditional style boxes like “growth” or “value.” We dive into White Falcon's three “engines” — Compounders, Value Today, and Value Tomorrow — and how, for Balkar, this structure should result in part of the portfolio always working. Balkar walks through case studies, explaining how he looks for quality businesses facing temporary challenges, and how narrative shifts and multiple expansion drive returns over a three-year horizon. We also discuss the lessons he's learned in managing value traps, how he's thinking about AI as an investor, and the importance of evolving your process over time. At the heart of it all is a focus on quality management, incentives, and high-conviction positions in a concentrated 20-stock North American portfolio.

It was a pleasure to welcome David Puritz back to the Alpha Exchange. A colleague of mine from 25 years ago and now the CIO of Shaolin Capital Management, Dave has some excellent insights to share on uncorrelated investing broadly and on the current state of convertible bond trading, risk, and liquidity, specifically. When he last joined the podcast in 2021, the Fed was still at zero, five-year yields were 75bps and Dave warned investors to avoid long-duration, low-coupon converts. The epic drawdown in bonds in 2022 made that call quite prescient.We talk about some of the pricing dynamics within converts, where Dave sees the risk of being wrong as especially high. Here, he points to the pricing of high implied vol underlyings that can suffer from vol compression that is not offset by a tightening of credit spreads. Overall, he sees many areas of the converts market with little margin for error. On the risk management front, Dave states that in order to get a position to a fully desired sizing, the first purchases generally need to be made at the wrong price. In fact, he says, “you want to be wrong” on your earliest purchases and be averaging in at lower levels. In this context, we explore the notion of cheapness and finding value in the convert space. Dave differentiates between fundamental value, value in beta and technical value.With deficits soaring and the traditional stock-bond hedge broken, we also talk about Dave's thinking on hedging fiat currency risk. He argues that Bitcoin—once dismissed as too volatile—is increasingly functioning as a digital form of scarcity, a portfolio hedge alongside gold in a world of relentless money creation. He also shares some very interesting insights onBitcoin-linked equites like miners and the potential applications to AI.I hope you enjoy this episode of the Alpha Exchange, my conversation with Dave Puritz.
My guest on the show today is Ben Finser, Founder and Portfolio Manager at Fin Capital Management. In this episode, Ben shares his journey from a decade at Kabouter Management to launching Fin Capital in 2024, and how his entrepreneurial background shaped his passion for analyzing and owning high-quality businesses. We dive into his exclusive focus on international micro and small caps, a “target-rich universe” of some 15,000 listed companies in developed markets outside the US. Ben explains why these overlooked businesses — often with no sell-side coverage and tiny trading volumes — present compelling opportunities for investors willing to dig deeper. Ben also details his boots-on-the-ground due diligence process, including traveling globally to meet management teams, comparing companies to global peers, and navigating cultural nuances when assessing business quality and long-term growth. We talk about his “pseudo-activist” engagement approach, where he works alongside management to improve disclosures, expand investor outreach, and unlock value. Finally, Ben shares a case study of a Japanese procurement software company he helped bring onto investors' radar, and offers perspective on why US outperformance may be cyclical — and why international microcaps deserve a place in more portfolios.
