Ken pushes to give Paul Dolan credit for greenlighting the Guardians' trade deadline additions, acknowledging his past criticism of the owner while arguing it's notable he didn't just sit on his hands with a young, uncertain roster. Anthony pushes back, saying the credit belongs to Chris Antonetti and Mike Chernoff since the team gave up almost nothing and took on no real salary, which makes it hard to call this a real financial commitment from ownership. They speculate whether new investor David Blitzer's growing involvement could explain the Joe Adell pickup as a long-term play rather than just a rental, and debate whether these moves actually shift the Guardians from Central-favorite to real AL contender.

Credit sweeps are a federal felony, and credit repair business owners are going to prison for them. FCRA attorney Haseeb Hussain joins Daniel and Keenan to explain exactly where credit repair ends and where a felony begins. Join Our FREE Start Repairing Credit Challenge: HERE  Haseeb sues Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion for a living, and he has watched the credit sweep problem explode. A sweep means telling the bureaus that legitimate debts came from identity theft, and every fake letter or FTC report can stack up mail fraud, wire fraud, and CROA violations. He walks through the real cases: operators handed five, eight, even ten years in federal prison, profits disgorged, and clients pulled in as accomplices. He also gets into the ugliest new variant, credit repair companies filing fake human trafficking claims to exploit the Debt Bondage Repair Act, and why enforcement is ramping up fast. Then he flips it to what legitimate, defensible credit repair actually looks like. It comes back to one word: inaccuracies. Running the report line by line with your client, sending clear disputes, and building a real FCRA case when an inaccuracy actually causes harm. You will also hear the exact steps to take in real identity theft, from freezing your reports to filing police, FTC, and CFPB reports, plus why background check errors can be some of the most valuable FCRA cases and the credit myths Haseeb wishes would die. Whether you are just starting your credit repair business or scaling one, this is the conversation that keeps you on the right side of the law. Tune in!  P.S.

Today's farms rely on technology more than ever. From grain dryers and irrigation pivots to livestock systems, security cameras, accounting software, and smartphones, nearly every part of a modern farming operation is connected. That also makes agriculture one of the fastest-growing targets for cybercriminals. Chris from Tech Support Farm returns to Farm4Profit to discuss how farms can better protect themselves from ransomware, phishing scams, compromised credit cards, malware, and attacks on connected equipment. The conversation covers real-world examples—including Tanner's own experience with fraudulent credit card charges—and explains how remote monitoring, endpoint detection, password management, secure business email, mobile device management, and network monitoring work together to reduce risk. The episode also explores: Business email security Password managers Public Wi-Fi risks Phishing scams Credit card fraud Remote monitoring Endpoint detection (EDR) Mobile device management Irrigation and grain dryer security Data backups Disaster recovery Cyber insurance Farm technology infrastructure AI and digital threats Whether you operate a family farm or a multi-location business, this episode offers practical advice that could save your operation from significant financial loss and downtime.

Further reading: How did a tiny bee get to French Polynesia? Eight new species help solve a scientific mystery Secrets in the canopy: Scientists discover 8 striking new bee species in the Pacific Canopy specialist Hylaeus bees highlight sampling biases and resolve Michener's mystery Scientists discover endoparasitic marine tapeworm trapped in Cretaceous amber Show transcript: Welcome to the Patreon bonus episode of Strange Animals Podcast for August 2024! It's the start of Invertebrate August, so we have two invertebrate mysteries to discuss today, one mostly solved and one not. Let's start with the solved mystery, about a tiny bee. In 1934, three tiny bee specimens were collected in French Polynesia, specifically on a particular type of flower in the Tuamotu Archipelago. The bees really were tiny, only 4 mm long. They weren't described until 1965, when they were placed in the genus Hylaeus. This is a really big genus with over 500 species that live throughout the world, but the species most closely related to the newly described Tuamotu's masked bee lives in Australia, New Guinea, and New Zealand. In case you're kind of hazy on geography, like me, Australia, New Guinea, and New Zealand are part of what's called Oceania, a giant chunk of the Pacific Ocean where there's not a whole lot of land. I mean, except for Australia, which is big. The Tuamotu Archipelago is also part of Oceania, and part of French Polynesia, but it's really remote. It consists of a spread-out collection of 78 low islands, many of them too tiny to support humans, none of them with a source of fresh water except for rain. They're tropical and quite beautiful, with many unique animals and plants living on and around them. They're also almost 2,500 miles, or 4,000 km away from the places where the tiny bee's closest relatives live. Even in 1965, scientists had questions about the tiny bee. How did 4mm bees get to such remote islands, and were they even still around? The bees hadn't been seen in the wild since 1934. Since the Tuamotu Archipelago has suffered from European explorers and missionaries bringing invasive species to some islands, colonization by France, and nuclear weapons testing, scientists worried the bee had gone extinct and that they would never solve the mystery of how it got there in the first place. Bees are attracted to flowers, and the three 1934 specimens were discovered on flowers, so naturally scientists had been looking for the bees on flowers. But it turns out that in the Polynesian islands, bees mostly hang out in the treetops. Once scientists figured this out, they began discovering new species of bee—eight of them in fact, collected between 2014 and 2019 from various islands in Fiji, Micronesia, and French Polynesia. All eight species are closely related to Tuamotu's masked bee, so scientists now have a pretty good idea of how it traveled thousands of miles to get to its French Polynesian home. Its ancestors island-hopped. There are more than 1,700 islands in the Pacific Ocean, many of them barely known to humans. Researchers think there are probably a lot more species of bee to be discovered in the treetops of Pacific islands, now that they know where to look. With luck, they'll be able to find Tuamotu's masked bee too, quietly living out its bee life above the scientists' heads. Next, let's discuss our unsolved mystery. Amber, which is fossilized tree resin, is the gift that just keeps on giving to the scientific world, and our mystery involves a flatworm found in amber. The amber comes from Myanmar and dates to about 99 million years ago. In addition to bits of inorganic matter like tiny pebbles and sand grains, most organisms found in amber from this site are insects and roundworms, animals you'd expect to find on and around trees. The team examining this particular piece of amber found lots of interesting things, but then they discovered this one. The flatworm is about 10mm long and it's beautifully preserved, which means the scientists were able to compare it to modern flatworms to see what it might be most closely related to. It's most similar to a parasitic flatworm found in shark intestines. You know, an animal not typically found in trees. (I stole that joke from paleontologist Kenneth De Baets, by the way. Credit where credit's due.) It isn't a complete worm but a partial one, basically a tentacle with little hooks to keep it in place in the host animal's digestive system. The modern worm is classified as a type of tapeworm, and tapeworms are distressingly common parasites. If you've ever adopted a rescue cat or dog, you've probably had to have it treated for a tapeworm infestation. Luckily, tapeworms are also very specific about which species they parasitize, so you can't get tapeworms from a pet. (It's still icky.) Fish get tapeworms too, after eating marine invertebrates carrying various kinds of tapeworm larvae. The question is, how did a parasitic worm found in fish end up in amber? Occasionally there is rare amber found that fell into water and trapped water organisms, but this particular amber wasn't associated with water. Other items found in the same piece of amber included sand grains, tiny hairlike structures found on some ferns, and the nymph of a scale insect. The team suggests that the tree where the amber came from grew near a beach and that a dead shark washed ashore. While scavengers were picking through the carcass, a piece of worm somehow got separated from the body and ended up in a tree. Possibly a scavenger grabbed a big yummy mouthful of rotting shark guts and either climbed or flew up into a tree to eat it, and part of the worm fell out and landed in a blob of amber. Because tapeworms are endoparasites, meaning they live inside their hosts, and because they're soft-bodied and fragile, it's very rare that one is preserved. Pretty much the only other preserved tapeworm specimen we have isn't a tapeworm itself but some eggs found in fossilized shark dung, dated to 270 million year ago. Scientists aren't even completely sure the eggs are from a flatworm since they're not that well preserved. So it's fantastic that this particular specimen was so well preserved, and that it made its way into the hands of scientists! Thanks for your support, and thanks for listening!

Interview with Drew Clark, President and CEO, Summit RoyaltiesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/summit-royalties-tsxvsum-targets-15m-revenue-run-rate-with-new-gold-streams-by-2028-10897Recording date: 28th July 2026Summit Royalties has added a new financing tool to a growth strategy that, until now, has relied almost entirely on equity. On July 27, the company announced a credit agreement with National Bank of Canada for a revolving facility with an initial US$25 million commitment, alongside an accordion feature providing for an additional US$25 million on the same terms — for total potential availability of US$50 million. The facility carries a three-year initial tenor, interest priced off SOFR or CORRA plus a leverage-dependent spread of 2.50% to 4.00%, and standard covenants including net leverage, interest coverage, and minimum liquidity requirements.Speaking to Crux Investor's Matt Gordon the day after the announcement, President and CEO Drew Clark was direct about what the debt is for and, just as importantly, what it isn't for. Summit's stated discipline is to use debt only against assets that will generate cash flow within three to five years — a narrower standard than the one that has applied to some of Summit's equity-funded acquisitions, including its recently closed purchase of Star Royalties, which added the Copperstone gold stream in Arizona to Summit's portfolio.Clark also used the interview to correct an earlier public framing of Summit's acquisition discipline. He clarified that roughly $250 million worth of transactions were rejected because Summit's own bids came in below sellers' clearing prices — for example, bidding $65 million on an asset that ultimately cleared at $80 million — rather than Summit walking away from opportunities that met its criteria. It's a useful clarification for investors trying to gauge how aggressively management is actually competing for assets versus how selectively it is declining them.On current market conditions, Clark described deal-making as comparatively easier than during the recent gold price peak, since the gap between long-term and spot pricing has narrowed. He flagged tungsten streams as a specific area of emerging opportunity alongside Summit's core precious metals focus, and noted that Summit is evaluating opportunities as both an acquirer and a potential acquisition target within the sector's ongoing consolidation.The most concrete disclosure for investors may be management's own valuation framework. Clark said the internal belief is that once Summit's revenue reaches somewhere between $20 million and $30 million annually, the company should re-rate toward 1 to 1.2 times NAV — in line with royalty peers — and toward 15-20 times revenue, versus a current multiple he characterised as below 10 times and a NAV multiple around 0.6 times. Management continues to target a production run rate of roughly 4,000 gold-equivalent ounces by the end of 2028 as the operational catalyst behind that thesis.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/summit-royaltiesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Stop tithing harder and start asking a different question. Most Christians spend their whole life begging God for the breakthrough and never realize the reason it has not shown up is not that they have not asked enough. It is because they are still doing three things every single week that make it impossible for Him to bless what is already in their hands.I am recording this one from inside my own storm. I am watching myself do at least one of these three things right now, and I am not standing over anyone. I am standing next to you.After years of doing loans for Christians, I can tell you these three mistakes show up over and over again in every borrower who prays for the financial breakthrough and never actually gets it. God is not being cruel. He is being wise. Every one of these mistakes is a character issue disguised as a money problem, and the blessing does not go where the character cannot hold it.What we cover:Mistake One: Chasing the Joneses. God cannot bless a life built to impress other people. The blessing arrives, and it gets consumed instantly because the lifestyle is already too big for the income. I share what this cost me in my past life, close to $100,000 in debt trying to keep up with people who were themselves on the verge of bankruptcy.Mistake Two: Financing your impatience. The tools that let you have things now are the same tools that guarantee you never actually own them. Credit cards, buy here pay here, buy now pay later, financing everything. Impatience is the sin behind the financing, and when you finance everything, you are telling God His timing is too slow for you. I share what I am doing right now in my own life to break this pattern.Mistake Three: Not being faithful with the little. If God trusted you with $500 and you blew it, why would He trust you with $50,000? He is not being cruel. He is being consistent. Faithful in little is the doorway to being trusted with much.Scriptures referenced:Luke 12:15, Proverbs 21:5, Luke 16:10The real reason God is not blessing your finances is not that He has forgotten you. It is because He loves you too much to hand you a blessing that would destroy you.

We are now recording an audio version of written posts that we will upload to Apple, Spotify, and YouTube, which you can listen to by clicking the play button above.We conclude our month long series on Strait of Hormuz (SoH) Crisis takeaways with a look at what this conflict means for the related topics of sustainability, climate, and the environment.Three key messages this week:* Many proponents and opponents of “Net Zero” are drawing the wrong conclusions about what this war means for different energy sources and technologies. Energy's natural hierarchy of needs applied at the country level mean the optimal mix of various energy sources and technologies will vary for any given country—a reality the crisis reinforces.* The topic of Sustainability needs to be right-sized and recognized for where it fits into corporate level strategies. Companies exist to generate growth and profitability for investors. Certain sustainability objectives are core to being successful over the long run. Sustainability is not a strategy in and of itself.* We shall offer free advice on what hyperscalers can learn from the oil & gas industry.We are going to do our best to not rehash our now well-known pushbacks on the excesses of the 2020-23 “Net Zero” era. The madness of that period we don't think ever returns, no matter who wins the US presidency in 2028. But we do get the question—and we are appreciative of those of you that ask—how does sustainability, climate, and the environment factor into our outlook for the energy sector, public policy, and corporate strategy and how does the SoH Crisis change or impact the views we have been articulating?We will start with a grounding on how we think about environmental and climate considerations. Our title gives it away: increasing global prosperity is our centering point, both for countries and companies. In terms of our concern level around the need to address climate change, we would characterize our specific climate opinions as broadly consistent with US Energy Secretary Chris Wright and former University of Colorado professor and Substack author (here) Roger Pielke Jr.At the country level, energy's natural hierarchy of needs that we frequently discuss is observably all any country cares about at all times (Exhibit 1). Abundant and reliable energy is a 24/7/365 pre-requisite. It needs to be affordable the vast bulk of the time. Country leaders care about geopolitical security in order to protect reliability and affordability. Clean air and clean water are 100% correlated with societal wealth. Addressing carbon emissions goes hand-in-hand with a maximum prosperity scenario where billion person-scale economies like China and India are highly motivated to crack the code on new energy technologies that are de facto lower in carbon intensity. Pretending that society and companies can be forced onto prescriptive “Paris-aligned Net Zero by 2050 pathways” was the fatal flaw of the 2020-2023 era.For companies, the only goal is to generate competitive returns and growth for shareholders. Sustainability exists at the level of community engagement, license to operate, and as a possible alternative to government regulation. It is a component of running a company similar to many other functions; it is not a strategy in its own right (e.g., pressuring oil & gas companies to transition business models in the name of addressing climate change never made sense).With that grounding, we are going to use a Q&A styled format to address how we think the related topics of sustainability, climate, and the environment will be impacted by the Strait of Hormuz Crisis.Exhibit 1: Energy's natural hierarch of needsSource: Veriten.Subscribe to Super-Spiked to receive all content via email. Also available on https://veriten.com.Q1: Does the SoH Crisis mean that the core tenet of Net Zero by 2050—which was to switch out of crude oil, natural gas, and coal into renewables, EVs, and other new tech—was correct after all?No. It does not. Our issue with Net Zero by 2050, or any other year for that matter, is that it incorrectly treats carbon emissions as the organizing principle for economic activity. It is not nor will it ever be, irrespective of how much (or little) concern any specific leader or group of citizens has about climate. There is nothing about the Strait of Hormuz Crisis that suddenly makes Net Zero pathways more relevant.Q2: So the opponents to Net Zero are correct that renewables and other new technologies are a boondoggle that plays on climate alarmism?No. It does not mean that either. The focus on non-oil, natural gas, and coal technologies will be driven by the massive unmet energy needs of the other 7 billion people on Earth that seek their own version of the prosperous lifestyles The Lucky 1 Billion of us take for granted. A specific view on climate is largely irrelevant to technology development. Reliability, affordability, and geopolitical security are the motivations to figure out new technologies. We are seeing this in real time in places like China and other Asian countries.Q3: Are there examples of countries that are adjusting away from a prior emphasis on Net Zero pathways as a result of geopolitical turmoil?We are optimistic about Norway and Canada, as two countries that are showing signs of appropriate course corrections. In the case of Norway, as a small, wealthy country, de facto mandating 100% EVs in order to not burn gasoline for consumer transportation is a choice they are free to make. More importantly, Norway is remembering that increasing oil and natural gas supply from the Norwegian North Sea is critically important to the geopolitical security and economic health of Norway, Europe, and its allies. Norway is also the home to a vibrant community of new technology companies. More oil, more natural gas, and investing in new technologies—yes!Canada's post Trudeau pivot away from Net Zero zealotry seems as much of a reaction to unfavorable rhetoric toward the country from President Trump than necessarily a recognition of how little sense it made for Canada to pursue energy policies that sought to limit the development of its massive oil sands and natural gas resources. Still, we will accept the directional improvement under PM Carney, irrespective of the apparent motivations.Long-time Super-Spiked subscribers know how critically important we believe energy and power integration between the United States and Canada is, making the recent political schism deeply unfortunate, even as it has seemingly improved energy policy decision making in Canada. The United States is economically and geopolitically stronger thanks to our close energy integration with Canada. The same is true for Canada. We credit our friend, former colleague, and current Deputy Secretary of Commerce Paul Dabbar for the idea that US + Canada + Norway would make for an outstanding trans-Atlantic alliance of energy and technology super powers (here).Q4: What else does geopolitical turmoil reveal about where the Net Zero mindset went wrong?The practical application of Net Zero by 2050 policies in many rich-world countries, states, and provinces has been to restrict domestic oil, natural gas, and coal production, mandate the use of new technologies, all while losing competitiveness in manufacturing and business more broadly. Restricting domestic energy supply, making energy prices uncompetitive, and offshoring industrial manufacturing should not be the objective of any country, state, or province. It is without question bad for geopolitical security, bad for domestic economic growth, and bad for the environment.Rather, we recommend a play on the George Castanza (Seinfeld) line (here): Show me an energy policy strategy that does the opposite. The litmus test is which country's energy and environmental policies come with competitive energy prices and business and manufacturing growth?The United Kingdom versus China is case in point. U.K. leaders have spoken glowingly about eliminating coal from their power sector and all but ending viability of the U.K. North Sea for oil and gas exploration. Yet, the country also faces the outsourcing and offshoring of its refining, petrochemical, and broader industrial base. To be clear, the U.K.'s policy challenges are not limited solely to its energy and climate policies, but those are foundational and almost certainly a meaningful contributing factor.We contrast the U.K. with China which has dramatically increased coal-fired power generation, renewables, nuclear, natural gas, and grown its domestic oil supply while building a massive strategic petroleum reserve. China is now manufacturer to the world with improving living standards for its citizens. The U.K. being on-track, or not, for domestic Net Zero is completely irrelevant to global emissions and, if anything, has been net negative for the climate given China's higher emissions profile. It has certainly been a negative for the economic competitiveness of the U.K.Q5: What are the takeaways from the Strait of Hormuz Crisis for corporate sustainability objectives?Our biggest takeaway is that sustainability is a component of running a successful company, but not a defining objective. It has generally been overstated in importance, especially by a segment of the finance world in Europe and the United States that has pushed for these objectives to gain in prominence. Companies don't exist for “sustainability.” It never made any sense to pressure oil & gas companies, as an example, to aggressively transition to low-carbon technologies in the name of Net Zero and sustainability. Companies exist to generate competitive profitability and growth for investors. Full stop.In order to generate long-term profitability and growth, various sustainability objectives (industry and company specific) for sure need to be met. Employee health and safety is at the top of the list along with ensuring the surrounding community to a given asset is also not harmed. Community engagement is core to any company's license to operate, especially when new growth plans are being pursued. The ultimate list is longer than what is mentioned here, but the point is that this area broadly does not separately merit high profile attention any more than do other critical corporate functions like human resources, legal, cybersecurity, treasury, and so forth. They all contribute to running a successful company.Q6: What are some contemporary examples of “sustainability” objectives you believe need to be addressed?Examples of current sustainability issues that we believe should be proactively addressed (not intended to be an exhaustive list):* Water disposal in the Permian Basin and water usage by AI datacenters are hot button issues that communities understandably want answers to.* We have long supported and continue to support near zero methane flaring/venting objectives for the oil & gas industry. This is a topic we have been pleasantly surprised to see the environmental community focus on globally rather than more narrowly just in the United States, Canada, or Europe, as is often the case with activists. We were also pleased to see the progress US companies have made in recent years per the World Bank (Exhibit 1).Exhibit 2: US producers have reduced flaring intensitySource: World Bank* We believe oil & gas, power sector, and hyperscaler/data center companies all have room for improvement in proactively engaging with the public on their industries, how they contribute to jobs, taxes, and economic development. It is the rare executive that is capable of speaking in normal, human, non-corporate speak language.In contrast, we do not believe a company's carbon emissions profile is relevant to its “license to operate” in a given community—a point often pushed by those advocating most loudly for Net Zero policies. No normal human being anywhere spends any time thinking about this. Putting activists aside, no regular person is protesting an oilfield or data center due to its carbon emissions intensity. Water impacts? Yes. Noise? Yes. Particulate pollution? Yes. Traffic? Yes. Carbon emissions? Give me a break.Q7: What should companies do with previously articulated Net Zero objectives?Pragmatically speaking, we recognize the significant pressure companies around the world were under during 2020-2023 to articulate company-specific “Net Zero by 2050” objectives. That said, very few if any could possibly have met those goals, since the wider world has never been even remotely on track for Net Zero be it by 2050 or any other year. The Strait of Hormuz Crisis and general geopolitical turmoil is helping more politicians and policy makers recognize that healthy energy policy starts and stops with reliability and affordability. In the interest of being transparent and sincere, companies should be truthful about whether sticking with prior Net Zero aspirations is something they actually think is (1) in the best interest of their companies and (2) is possible on any time horizon that can be modeled today.Q8: What can hyperscalers learn from the oil & gas industry?Key lessons:* You will never appease climate activists. Focus on optimizing for growth and profitability.* Your prior Net Zero objectives never had a chance of being achieved, especially if including so-called scope 3 emissions. Net Zero does not make sense at the individual company level.* Economic development, of which the technology sector today is a huge driver, is 100% correlated with clean air and clean water. Richer societies are better equipped than poorer regions to adapt to a broad range of environmental and climate issues. Americans and the wider world is overall better off that our leading technology companies exist in a similar way that we are fortunate to have healthy, vibrant, and profitable energy and power companies.* Speak sincerely and directly to the general public and the communities where you are investing about the actual impacts of your projects. You can't outsource this function. It starts with the CEO and then filters down. Skip the corporate speak and language of appeasement.* Vocally push back on policies that weaken domestic energy development opportunities in any region in which you are investing.⚡️On A Personal Note: Gone Shootin'The last time I shot a gun was in the 4th grade in what was then called Indian Guides. That almost certainly is not the name today; I think in New Jersey it is now called “Adventure Guides” which frankly is kind of lame. I believe we appropriately remembered and honored Native Americans under the original name, but society apparently disagrees with that perspective. Credit to my wife's brother's wife, who hails from the Golden State of all places, for the brilliant idea to go clay pigeon shooting during our vacation last week to The Cotswolds, about 2 hours west of London.Boy was that fun!!! We had a great instructor, Patrick I think was his name—not a fan of London or Londoners apparently; a country guy that was local to the area. There were six in our group. My brother-in-law, his wife and son, and my two daughters. All first timers. All of us successfully hit those crazy clay pigeons popping up in the field. Great job Patrick! Great job in-laws and daughters!I definitely need to practice. I had some beginners luck on the initial six shells, I want to say with five successful strikes on the ones going straight up in the air. But the ones that were flying away from us gave me more trouble and I was consistently low-left and a bit early. It was oddly tiring. A shot gun is definitely heavier than a golf club. As a second hobby, it's a keeper. Seems safter than pickleball as a golf complement.⚖️ DisclaimerI certify that these are my personal, strongly held views at the time of this post.

In this episode of Masters of Risk, host Stewart Webster speaks with Lionel Jolie, Partner and Head of Credit at J.F. Lehman & Company, about the growing tensions beneath today's private credit markets and the opportunities emerging for disciplined investors. As private credit assets have expanded rapidly in recent years, liquidity pressures, redemption requests, and shifting market dynamics are reshaping the landscape for business development companies (BDCs), direct lenders, and secondary credit investors. Lionel explains how his team navigates both public and private credit markets, providing liquidity to lenders while evaluating stressed, illiquid, and often misunderstood opportunities. Drawing on more than two decades of credit investing experience, Lionel discusses the evolution of the BDC market, the rise of liability management exercises, and why traditional refinancing strategies are becoming increasingly difficult in a higher-rate environment. He also explores how investors can distinguish between companies facing temporary liquidity challenges and those caught in a true operational decline. Together, Stewart and Lionel examine the sectors attracting capital today—including aerospace, defense, and industrial infrastructure—and discuss how government spending, supply chain constraints, and asset scarcity can influence credit outcomes. They also unpack the growing popularity of private credit ETFs, the risks of liquidity mismatches, and why market stress may be more nuanced than the headlines suggest. A timely conversation for institutional investors, credit professionals, risk managers, and allocators seeking deeper insight into private credit, secondary markets, and the risks shaping the next phase of the credit cycle.

Are investors overreacting to rising credit spreads among the largest AI hyperscalers? As companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, and Oracle continue borrowing heavily to fund massive AI infrastructure, headlines are warning of "carnage" in hyperscaler credit markets. But does wider credit spread really signal financial trouble—or simply reflect unprecedented capital spending? Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz examine what credit default swaps (CDS), bond spreads, and AI capital expenditures are actually telling investors. We'll separate sensational headlines from market reality, and explore whether this is a genuine warning sign or another example of fear outrunning the fundamentals. 0:00 INTRO 1:01 - Markets Sell of as Margins Unwind 3:48 - What Happens When Moving Averages Are Broken 7:22 - Yields Respond to FOMC 9:42 - What Walsh Didn't Say... 14:01 - Four Things (he did say) 16:01 - No Support for Rate Hikes in Slowing Economy 21:26 - Momentum is the Market Driver (and it's unwinding) 23:24 - Why the 2% Inflation Target? 27:09 - Google vs Microsoft Earnings & Market Responses 30:25 - Hyperscalers & Credit Spreads 36:34 - Oracle is the Problem Child 37:42 - Market Price Narratives are not Realistic 39:42 - The Importance of Risk Management Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO, w Portfolio Manager, Michael Lebowitz, CFA Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Do you enjoy our content?

How do we make a peaceful transition to a wholly new system when the old one is sustained by those who profit most from the self-terminating zombie of predatory capitalism?Our guest this week has spent the past decade devising an answer to this most central of our questions. Remzi Bajrami is co-founder of Common Planet Foundation and creator of Creditism, which is his answer to our dilemma. In his words, Creditism is— - a new economic system designed around life instead of debt. Credit flows to people because existence itself has value — it circulates through life, then clears. It supports living without becoming a permanent claim on the future. - a non-debt economic system designed to replace extraction with flow, scarcity with access, and coercion with coordination. Where today's money is largely created through debt and accumulated as power, Creditism reframes money as credit: a shared unit of access created through existence, earned through contribution, and dissolved when used.  - the gateway to a global economy that is cleaner, fairer, and more life-aligned — one that supports human potential, community self-governance, and planetary regeneration.Creditism is the economic architecture for a species that wants to survive.There are still some unanswered questions in this, but there are always going to be until we get moving with something, test it out and reinvent it on the fly.  What Remzi and his colleagues have done is to set up a system that you can join now - or at least in early August 2026 - and become a part of a network that will test this out.  in the meantime, Remzi has written a series of Substacks which lay out in straightforward terms how the current system is predicated on power over, how money works - because we can't hear that one too often - and how creditism could work instead.

Are you the same person when nobody important is watching? Do you demand standards from others that you refuse to hold yourself to? When the team wins, do you give away the credit? When things fall apart, are you willing to take responsibility? Are you building your character—or just managing your image?Because there's a dangerous gap between looking like a leader and becoming one.In this episode, we unpack the five pillars of credibility: Consistency. Choices. Credit. Character. Credibility. And I'll challenge you to conduct a brutally simple leadership audit—not based on your intentions, but on the evidence your life is producing.If they stripped away your rank, title, credentials, platform, and position tomorrow…Would people still follow you?Stop chasing the next title.Stop trying to look like the leader.Become the kind of person people trust enough to follow when they don't have to.Because leadership isn't given.It's built.And leaders aren't born ready.They're Built Not Born.

In this episode of the insuranceaum.com podcast, host Stewart Foley, CFA, speaks with Trevor Clark, Founder and Managing Partner of TPG Twinbrook Capital Partners, about the structural changes reshaping private credit and the enduring role of lower middle market lending. Trevor explains why private credit should not be treated as a single, uniform asset class and discusses how manager experience, direct origination, disciplined underwriting, financial covenants and active portfolio monitoring can influence investment outcomes.   The conversation also explores how insurance capital, BDC structures, retail redemptions, longer private equity hold periods and artificial intelligence are changing the direct lending landscape. Trevor shares why strong companies can still become vulnerable when overlevered, how lenders can use better data and monitoring to identify risks earlier, and what insurance investors should consider when evaluating both private credit managers and the structures used to access the asset class.

This week on Swimming with Allocators, returning guest Chris Schelling of Aksia joins Earnest Sweat and Alexa Binns to unpack how AI, private markets, and the wealth channel are evolving. They discuss where AI may already be in bubble territory, how it's reshaping SaaS, services, and investment processes (including AI “agents” on investment committees), and why some SaaS and low-value information services are most at risk. Chris explains Aksia research-driven approach across private equity, private credit, real assets, and hedge funds, and shares why he's skeptical of layered SPV “sandwiches” and headline-driven fear around private credit. The conversation explores the democratization of alternatives for wealthy clients, the role of content as a strategic edge for allocators, challenges in structuring venture access products, and why early-stage technical venture and quantum computing are compelling. Chris closes with advice for newer professionals: in a world of AI tools, differentiated relationships, networks, and deep domain expertise matter more than ever. Also, Nick Cassin explains how Sidley's secondary practice spans multiple asset classes and deal types, highlights the growing role of secondaries in venture (including GP‑leds and LP trades), and shares how Sidley's breadth, commercial mindset, and experience help clients navigate complex liquidity and continuation vehicle structures.

Credit building is the other half of your credit repair business, and most Credit Heroes are leaving it on the table. Daniel Rosen breaks down how to help clients build credit from scratch, report rent as credit history, and keep clients paying you long after the deletions come through. Join Our FREE Start Repairing Credit Challenge: HERE  Repair clears the negatives, but a lot of clients are left with a thin file and a score that has nothing to grow on. What actually moves a score comes down to on-time payment history, low utilization under 30%, and some age and mix built up over time. Feed those, and you finish the transformation instead of stopping halfway. The fastest win is rent. If you're on Credit Hero Score, BuildCredit Rent reports a client's on-time rent as credit history and can back-fill up to 24 months, so two years of positive history can show up on the file with results usually landing in about 30 days. Only on-time payments get reported, so there's no new debt for your client to worry about. Once the rent is reporting, pair it with a secured card kept under 30% for a well-rounded file. Here's why it matters for your business: every repair client you finish is already a fit for building, so there's no new lead to chase and no trust to rebuild. Repair has an ending, but building is a reason clients stay with you month after month. Offer it right after a win, lead with rent because it's the easiest yes there is, and you turn a bill they're already paying into a stronger score for them and recurring income for you.

The hotel business apparently didn't get the memo that everything is supposed to be terrible. Consumers feel squeezed. Credit-card debt keeps climbing. Business travel remains soft. Hotel construction faces the same cost and financing challenges we've discussed for years. Yet hotels keep performing, people keep traveling and owners keep making deals. So what's actually holding this market together? I asked Bruce Ford, SVP at Lodging Econometrics, to help me make sense of it. We talked about why event travel continues to deliver, how hotels can offer deals without destroying their rates and why the biggest opportunity ahead may have less to do with building new hotels. One number caught my attention: Bruce expects the industry to renovate or convert between 325,000 and 375,000 rooms during each of the next couple of years. That could create a very different hotel investment market than many people expect, with major implications for owners, brands, management companies and industry suppliers.

They dive into Trump's broken promises, the Iran war escalation, Gaza, and the Charlie Kirk shooting narrative. The trio tears apart the AI bubble, SpaceX valuation, private credit risks, and a Fed-driven market top.
