Podcasts about credit default swaps

What the heck is CDS? Google that question and you find page after page of information on Credit Default Swaps or Controlled Dangerous Substances. But there is a CDS that is directly connected to ADHD and it's likely something you've never heard of before.   So what is Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome and what are the symptoms? How is it similar to ADHD and how is it different? CDS is not an officially recognized diagnosis in the DSM-5. It's currently what's called a clinical construct - a term used in psychology to define a group of behaviors.    Researchers, including today's guest Dr. Zoe Smith, have been working for years to get the construct recognized and there is still so much we don't know about CDS. Without an official diagnosis, it can be hard for providers to identify the signs and symptoms of CDS and Dr. Z is joining us to share what we do know about this relatively unknown comorbid condition.    Zoe R. Smith, PhD (she/her) is an assistant professor of psychology at Loyola University Chicago with research interests in the development of culturally-responsive assessments and interventions for adolescents. She is the leader of ACCTION Lab, an organization that is dedicated to community-based assessment and intervention development for youth with ADHD and Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome. She has authored or co-authored numerous scholarly articles on ADHD and CDS and served with 12 other scholars beginning in 2021 in a work group to evaluate current knowledge and identify key directions in the study of sluggish cognitive tempo (SCT).   Instagram: @ACCTIONLab X(Twitter): @DrZoeRSmith TikTok: @ACCTION.Lab   Add us on Social Media:   Instagram: @lindsayguentzel @refocusedpod @adhdonline Twitter: @lindsayguentzel @refocusedpod @adhdonline   Email the show: hello@refocusedpod.com   We appreciate you taking the time to listen!

We’ll talk about what they are and their role in the 2007-2009 Financial Crisis. Then, California passed a landmark zero-emission rule, but electrifying the state will come with some challenges. Plus, a round of Half-Full/Half-Empty that we hope gets us invited to Bluesky. Here’s everything we talked about today: “Bets Offering 2,400% Payout on US Default Lure Growing Crowd” from Bloomberg “California air regulators approve landmark zero-emission rules for trucks and locomotives” from the Los Angeles Times “California moves to phase-out diesel-powered trucks, cut locomotive pollution” from Reuters “Grandchildren of ‘Sound of Music' Von Trapp Family Form Indie Band” from Rolling Stone “What's the future of retail shopping? Snap bets on virtual try-on tech.” from Marketplace “The Long Demise of the Stretch Limousine” from The New York Times “People Are Flocking to Jack Dorsey’s New Twitter Alternative” from Futurism “The Glorious Return of a Humble Car Feature” from Slate “The Real Problem With Fake Drake” from Billboard If you've got a question about business, tech or the economy, give us a shout.

Die asiatisch-pazifischen Märkte tendierten am Montag uneinheitlich, da die Anleger weiterhin die Auswirkungen der Bankenkrise in den USA und Europa abwägen. Die Deutsche Bank beendete die Woche mit einem Ausverkauf ihrer in den USA notierten Aktien, nachdem die Credit Default Swaps des deutschen Kreditgebers sprunghaft angestiegen waren, was zu den anhaltenden Befürchtungen einer Ansteckung durch die Turbulenzen im Bankensektor beitrug.Der mit Verlusten in den Tag gestartete Dow Jones Industrial schloss mit plus 0,4 Prozent auf 32 238 Punkte knapp unter seinem Tageshoch. Der marktbreite S&P 500 gewann 0,6 Prozent auf 3971 Zähler.

We've been reporting on Deutsche Bank for nearly 10 years and warned of the contagion risk as the embattled German bank faced attempted mergers with Commerzbank and saw massive lawsuits that essentially guaranteed its end. Now, stocks are collapsing after the Credit Suisse and Silicon Valley Bank debacle and interestingly enough, Jim Cramer has told people that Deutsche Bank is a good investment which essentially ensures its demise. Ironically, UBS which just purchased Credit Suisse is in the same boat as Deutsche Bank. These banks are totally insolvent if you study their cash to deposit ratios as well as their Credit Default Swaps and derivative exposures. It's only a question of when and that "when" appears to be on our doorstep. This is the crisis necessary for the establishment to force us into a new world reserve currency system under the guise of an "emergency." This new system will be cashless.

In den Finanzmedien taucht rund um das Thema Vermögensanlage auch immer mal wieder der Begriff der „alternativen Investments“ auf. Häufig handelt es sich dabei um Anlagen, die in Marktnischen, abseits der allgemeinen Aktien- und Anleihemärkte, angesiedelt sind. Karl Matthäus Schmidt, Vorstandsvorsitzender der Quirin Privatbank AG und Gründer der digitalen Geldanlage quirion, beantwortet in dieser Podcast-Folge u. a. folgende Fragen: Was hat man sich unter sogenannten alternativen Investments vorzustellen? Wie grenzen sich diese von Aktien und Anleihen ab? Was ist der Unterschied zwischen effizienten, liquiden Märkten und ineffizienten, illiquiden Märkten? Was sind die Gründe dafür, dass in einigen Marktbereichen Informationen nicht umgehend in die Kurse eingepreist werden, bzw. die Markteffizienz nicht greift? Welche Faktoren schränken den Wettbewerb bzw. die Liquidität bestimmter Märkte ein? Was versteht man unter monopolistischer Konkurrenz? Gibt es ganz bestimmte ineffiziente Marktsegmente? Sind diese immer ineffizient oder wechseln die Märkte? Was sind Beispiele für typische alternative Anlagen? Sind solche Investments für Privatanleger überhaupt relevant? Wenn ja, was gilt es dabei zu beachten und wie wählt man solche Investments aus? Welche Renditen sind über alternative Anlagen möglich? Welche speziellen Risiken gibt es bei alternativen Investments? In alternative Anlagen können Kundinnen und Kunden der Quirin Privatbank im Rahmen des Wissensbausteins investieren. Wir verstehen den Baustein als Ergänzung zu einem ansonsten breit gestreuten globalen Portfolio aus internationalen Aktien und Anleihen.

A new mortgage financial product has people thinking credit default swaps and 2008 are coming back, mortgage demand jumps for the week, and The Fed announces no changes but is the Fed more optimistic about the economy than the rest of the government?

In the strong US economy, there exist a few cracks and worries. MMT is one of them as money printing does not create wealth, nor does it drive the economy. No one is talking about Credit Default Swaps, but what if? Buffett makes it clear that the US Government and FED are allowing leveraged speculation, but didn't previously.

His insights around Bitcoin and the state of the banking industry and the global economy are amazing.” The second Canadian in 3 episodes, Fed Watch is bringing great North American bitcoiners with unique perspectives on to discuss all aspects of how bitcoin is meeting the challenges of entering the central bank dominated financial world. In this conversation, we first learn a little bit about Greg’s background in banking. He began his career in 1988 working for the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) where he quickly realized it was insolvent due to their exposure to the Latin American Financial Crisis. He went on to work for and found many influential financial firms in Canada over the next 30 years, until he found bitcoin in 2016.  The reason Fed Watch wanted to speak with Greg Foss is his interesting valuation thesis for bitcoin which you can find on his website linked above. It centers around bitcoin as portfolio insurance for fixed income investors. In this episode, the listener will get a master class on Credit Default Swap (CDS) spreads and pricing. Today, the CDS market is the way the financial industry prices risk in the credit market in the attempt to make homogeneous investable products for fixed income investors. The problem is when financial conditions change, which they very often do, these prices move, forcing investors to react and kicking off a downward spiral in prices. It is a very unstable framework. Foss highlights that bitcoin is a perfect fit in this market to reduce risk and act as a hedge during the inevitable periods of market instability.   Another aspect Greg concentrates on is the unworkable mathematics of global debt. He uses an example that the global economy, which has stayed under 5% per year since 1976, must get to levels approaching growth of 12% simply to service the current debt. In this world, there will be defaults, the system will have to readjust, and that readjustment will be painful. In the second half of this episode, we touch on Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC), the global nature of the credit markets and what the central banks are doing to fight this deflationary environment before moving onto Greg’s current business venture. Validus Power Corp is involved with converting stranded energy from oil field flares into usable energy to mine bitcoin. This is a booming business all over North America. Naturally, the conversation turned to a North American Renaissance powered by on-shoring industrial base, global capital, and the booming energy sector. Fed Watch has established itself as the bitcoin podcast which goes past the surface arguments about the monetary system, diving deeply into how bitcoin will reshape that system. We bring on exciting guests from all corners of macro to discuss the most important topic in finance today. Thanks for listening. Make sure to visit our Sponsor stacks2.com and find our new RSS feed!

When looking at innovative financial products like credit default swaps, you need to look at the totality of the related effects they have on firms and their stakeholders.

Gina-Gail Fletcher, associate professor at Indiana University Maurer School of Law, joins the Business Scholarship Podcast to discuss her forthcoming article Engineered Credit Default Swaps: Innovative or Manipulative?. Fletcher's article examines the phenomenon of engineered credit-default-swap transactions. In these transactions, CDS buyers or sellers induce borrowers either to default or avoid default on debt referenced by CDS contracts, thus allowing them to directly affect the values of the contracts. Fletcher considers the costs and benefits of this controversial practice and sketches possible regulatory and market responses to it.This episode is hosted by Andrew Jennings, a teaching fellow and lecturer in law at Stanford Law School.

In tonight's episode, part 3 of a 5 part series, we help listeners understand Complex Securities and Derivatives, their purpose, the markets they operate on, and how they played no part in the financial crisis. Instruments such as Mortgage Backed Securities, Credit Default Swaps, Collateralized Debt Obligations often get a bad wrap, as if they are inherently evil or destructive. The fact of the matter, like any financial instrument, is that these complex securities and derivative contracts are a ingenious innovation that help investors and financial institutions MITIGATE risk.  Further, during the financial crisis of 2008, these instruments helped to MINIMIZE the damage done by the Federal Government's Capital Manipulations of the past 2 decades and the Monetary Manipulation of the Federal Reserve Bank. Without such innovative products to help manage risk, the crisis could have been much worse. Tonight we help listeners get a handle on the concept of convertible debt, preferred stock, futures, options, mortgage backed securities, credit default swaps and collateralized debt obligations! Don't miss it!

By allowing investors to take out insurance on others bonds, Credit Default Swaps have gotten a bad reputation for promoting speculation on the misfortune of others. McCombs Senior Lecturer of Finance Sandy Leeds explains how this practice has also been blamed for setting up the financial crisis.

It's another episode of Greedy Bastards Antidote. Today, we're talking about credit default swaps -- Greedy Bastards' favorite financial innovation of the past ten years. Think of a swap as an opportunity for financial companies to sell insurance on credit. In this podcast, you'll learn exactly what credit default swaps are, and why they're dangerous to our economy. Our guest is Chris Whalen of Institutional Risk Analytics, contributor to Ritholtz.com, and editor of the Insitutional Risk Analyst, a weekly news analysis and commentary on risk and the global political economy.
