Documentary filmmaker and economist James Patrick joins the program to shed light on a critical shift in global finance: the systematic transfer of stock and bond ownership from individuals to centralized institutions. According to Patrick, investors no longer directly own the securities they purchase—instead, they hold paper claims while actual ownership resides with financial intermediaries. He argues this transformation was not accidental, but rather a calculated move to strip individuals of real asset control, amounting to what he calls the largest financial crime in history. Patrick's research is featured in The Great Taking, and those interested in learning more—or in reclaiming personal ownership rights—can visit thegreattakingreport.com.

In this episode we answer emails from Corn Pop, Dustin and Jim.  We discuss annuities for elderly parents, TIPS ladders in retirement, REITs in small cap value funds, currency speculation, the GDE fund (again) and an aggressive portfolio construction.Link:Interview of Michael Kitces Re Problems With TIPS Ladders:  Michael Kitces: How Higher Yields Affect Asset Allocation and Retirement Planning | MorningstarBreathless and Promotional AI-Bot Summary:Dive into the mailbag as Frank tackles complex investment questions with his signature blend of expertise and pop culture references. This episode unpacks several critical financial planning dilemmas that challenge conventional wisdom.First, Frank examines when annuities make sense for elderly parents, explaining how health prospects and longevity expectations should guide this decision. For those likely to outlive actuarial tables, annuities can provide financial value and simplify management—but they're far from universally beneficial. Frank introduces Qualified Longevity Annuity Contracts (QLACs) as a strategic option for those concerned about funding long-term care in their later years.The conversation shifts to a provocative take on TIPS ladders, with Frank describing long-term ladders as "a flex for hoarders" rather than necessary financial tools. He argues these complicated structures work best for defined periods with specific purposes—like bridging to Social Security—not as decades-long income vehicles that will inevitably be either too long or too short for your actual lifespan.Currency speculation, Bitcoin, and aggressive portfolio construction round out the episode's explorations. Frank explains how currency exposure already exists implicitly in international stocks and gold without dedicated speculation, evaluates an aggressive portfolio with substantial Bitcoin allocation, and questions whether dividend stocks belong in accumulation strategies.Throughout, Frank balances technical analysis with practical wisdom, reminding listeners that personalized investment approaches must account for individual circumstances rather than following generic advice. Whether you're managing a retirement portfolio or building wealth, you'll gain valuable perspective on how the finest investment strategies align with your actual needs rather than theoretical ideals.Want your questions answered on a future episode?

In its literal sense, the term ‘Servant Leadership' is a bit of an oxymoron. If you're the one in charge, shouldn't you be overseeing whatever ‘service' is being done by your team? But in the same way that Leadership is confused with the idea of Management, the word Servant in the term ‘Servant Leadership' often gets mistaken for the idea of Subordinance.  But as my guest today discusses, Servant Leadership is about more than being willing to jump in and help your team complete a mission when a situation goes sideways, it's about making sure they know you're doing everything you can to keep them out of that situation in the first place.Joining the podcast this week is Ben Morton, a sought-after leadership mentor, coach and bestselling author. A graduate of the Royal Military Academy Sandurst, he served two tours in Iraq before going on to assume the Global Head of HR role at World Challenge, eventually joining the ranks at Tesco, helping to develop their Leadership Academy.But after moving from the battlefield to the boardroom, Ben began to notice how many programs relied on ‘tools' and models' that turned leadership into a numbers-game. Determined to make a change, in 2011 he founded Ben Morton Leadership under a singular principle: A leader exists to support, develop, and look after the people they have the privilege and responsibility to lead so that they can deliver the results for which the leader is accountable.We discuss why providing a sense of safety is at the core of leadership, why telling and teaching are two separate things, and why not all leadership lessons translate from the battlefield to the boardroom. Enjoy the show.

Nobody wants the dollar? Is it really the end of the word as we know it?? While the Dollar has certainly had a decline, going from 110 to 99 on the US Dollar Index. However, things must be placed properly in context: Looking at a 20-yar chart, it is clear that the Dollar is NOT declining, despite recent, short term dips. The Dollar has basically been consolidating ever since 2022. Yes, the Dollar could go lower from here; 91 on the Index is certainly possible in a retest of a long term moving average. But that would still be well within the bullish trend. What we're witnessing now is not surprising, given the dynamics imposed by the tariffs. Currency is basically nothing but a measure of international trade, and most countries store their reserve assets in US Dollars by buying US Treasuries, gold, or US stocks. Countries concerned about the impact of tariffs on their economy are pulling their reserve assets out of dollars and back into their own currencies. That's the rotation that's been going on.

April 14, 2025 | Season 5 | Episode 13The financial world stands at a potential inflection point as traditional market relationships show signs of stress. What began as concern over tariff policies has evolved into a deeper question about the stability of the global monetary order that has prevailed since World War II.The bond market flashed dramatic warning signals last week, with the 10-year Treasury yield surging nearly 50 basis points to touch 4.5% - the largest percentage move since 1987. Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers likened the chaotic trading to what might occur in an emerging market economy. Simultaneously, the U.S. dollar weakened significantly against major currencies, with the Euro gaining over 10% against the dollar since January.Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, expressed concerns about "something worse than a recession" as these tectonic plates of finance shift beneath our feet. For decades, global investors have flocked to U.S. assets, allowing America to run substantial deficits with minimal consequences. That relationship now faces its most serious test in generations.Beyond market mechanics, this volatility reflects real economic challenges facing average Americans. While wages have increased roughly eight times since 1967, housing costs have surged eighteen times over the same period. This widening gap between income growth and essential expenses explains why many Americans feel financially stretched despite stock market gains.For investors, especially those approaching retirement, these conditions demand thoughtful portfolio management. Maintaining adequate cash reserves, strategic tax-loss harvesting, and considering Roth conversions during market downturns can help navigate uncertainty. The municipal bond market presents a particularly compelling opportunity, with high-grade 30-year munis yielding around 5% - equivalent to a 7.7-9.5% taxable yield for investors in high tax brackets.As we process these signals, the fundamental question remains: are we witnessing temporary market dislocations or the early stages of a more profound shift in global economic relationships? Either way, maintaining perspective and adhering to sound investment principles will be essential in the months ahead.** For informational and educational purposes only, not intended as investment advice.

Peter Schiff dives into the wild financial markets, tariff drama, trade deficits, and golden opportunities.Download the CFO's Guide to AI and Machine Learning at https://netsuite.com/goldPeter Schiff discusses the recent turmoil in the financial markets, attributing it to the imposition of tariffs by the Trump administration. Schiff criticizes the tariffs, asserting that they hurt the U.S. economy, caused the dollar and bond markets to crash, and ultimately led to significant market volatility. He contends that Trump's tariffs were a misguided attempt to reduce trade deficits and that they contradicted basic economic principles. Schiff outlines how foreign investors fleeing U.S. assets and central banks favoring gold over dollars indicate a shift away from U.S. economic dominance. He emphasizes the importance of investing in gold mining stocks, anticipating substantial growth as the economic crisis unfolds.

On this week's episode of 'The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Tariff Twist. The Trump administration announces new exemptions to reciprocal tariffs, including smartphones, computers and other consumer electronics, bringing U.S. tech companies back from the edge of a cliff, for now. But tariff policies still threaten other American businesses, not to mention faith in the U.S. economy. Rep. Debbie Dingell of Michigan joins me to talk about that, and the Republican spending plan that threatens the social safety net. Retribution Orders. Another stunning legal week, with the President using executive authority to target private citizens, while Supreme Court rulings leave room for the White House to defy the judicial branch. What it all means for the rule of law. And we warned y'all. While thousands of shocked Americans take to the streets to protest Trump's chaotic and harmful agenda, author Christina Greer is here to explain why Black Americans are not surprised. All that and more on “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”

US President Donald Trump yesterday announced a 90-day pause as part of his tariff plan but was also raising the tariff rate for China to 125pc. The EU and other countries who were facing into tariffs of between 10pc and 47pc are now going to pay a 10pc baseline tariff for 90 days. We discuss this development with Joe Lynam, Newstalk's Business Editor and also Dan O'Brien, Chief Economist at the Institute of International and European affairs and Columnist with The Currency.

With new tariff threats from the Trump administration and rising tensions across key markets, companies and governments alike are scrambling to understand what decoupling—or de-risking—actually looks like in practice. From electronics and apparel to solar panels and electric vehicles, China's role in global production remains formidable. But is it unshakeable? In this special bonus episode, Eric is joined by Agatha Kratz, Juliana Bouchot, and Lauren Piper from the Rhodium Group, whose recent report "China and the Future of Global Supply Chains" offers one of the clearest pictures yet of what's happening on the ground. Together, they explore whether Southeast Asia, India, or Latin America can meaningfully absorb China's manufacturing output—and what the U.S. strategy of sweeping tariffs might mean for inflation, consumers, and the Global South.

Donald Trump has defied investors' hopes that his tariff threats were all bluster and just a short-lived negotiating tactic. The US is pushing ahead with its trade war with China, imposing a 104 per cent tariff on all Chinese goods entering America. Given China is our largest trading partner and so many other countries have been hit too, what does it mean for our hip pocket? Today, economist Susan Stone explains what the economic chaos means for the dollar, shares, superannuation and interest rates. Featured: Dr Susan Stone, Credit Union SA Chair of Economics at the University of South Australia

Andy Schectman rejoins the program to discuss the uncontrolled money printing and the “magic computers” that have been found by DOGE. We discuss whether this is the money printing that is being reported as “off books” that could take down the system. We also discuss the fact that this month has seen the largest demand of silver buying ever recorded. We question how much longer demand can be this high without prices increasing to meet demand. Can they continue to keep the market price artificially low? Schectman believes is just a matter of time before silver resets to reflect market conditions.

The reciprocal tariff policy is about Fair Trade vs. Free Trade.    Reciprocal tariffs will be calculated both the monetary and non-monetary totals.  The US will tariff the other country about half of the tariff charged to the US.   Non-tariff barriers are often worse. -        Currency manipulation -        VAT tax -        Export subsidies -        Counterfeit products -        Technology theft -        Subsidized dumping of products into our country designed to kill our industry.   Free trade policies have been used against the US to destroy our manufacturing capability. -        We lose jobs   -        National security issue Look at nearly any small town or rural area in America. Most are a hollow shell of what they once were. -        There are few jobs or opportunities available -        Most are depressed and run-down -        It has steadily gotten worse over the past few decades -        Destroyed American industry.  -     An entire region is known as the rust belt.   The Trump administration is changing decades of tariff policy. The transition will be volatile. If the current administration is successful, the long-term benefit for the US will be tremendous.   I believe we are in for a chaotic year and a bumpy economic ride this year.

What if insurance data weren't just extracted—but earned? In this episode of the Insurtech Leadership Podcast, host Josh Hollander sits down with Elan Nyer, CEO and Co-Founder of Ownli, to explore how policyholders can take control of their data and become active participants in the insurance value chain. Elan shares how Ownli enables consumers to share verified, first-party data—such as mileage, location, and vehicle condition—directly with insurers, creating a permissioned, transparent data marketplace. This shift not only improves underwriting and claims accuracy but also strengthens engagement between insurers and policyholders. The conversation also dives into AI-driven verification, flexible integration models, and the larger opportunity to serve untapped, non-telematics users. Elan's vision turns traditional data collection on its head—empowering individuals to own, protect, and profit from their digital footprint. In This Episode: [00:59] Elan's background in automotive data and connected mobility [03:01] The founding insight behind Ownli: data control and transparency [05:00] Verified use cases: mileage, parking location, and condition check-ins [09:35] Serving non-telematics users with valuable, self-reported insights [12:06] Verifying user-submitted data with AI and 11-layer model architecture [14:00] Ownli's revenue-sharing model where users benefit from their data [16:30] Three integration paths: SDK, web portal, and standalone app [22:16] Building a verified “insurance profile” to streamline quoting and renewal [30:12] Regulatory challenges and advocating for individual data ownership   Notable Quotes:  “If I had verified mileage and condition on my policy, my claim would have been resolved in 24 hours. Instead, it took months.” – Elan Nyer “Your data is an asset—just like money in a bank. We're building the platform to help you own it, protect it, and earn from it.” – Elan Nyer   Our Guest: Elan Nyer is the CEO and Co-Founder of Ownli, a platform that empowers consumers to share verified, first-party insurance data through a consent-first marketplace. Previously, he led teams at Mobileye and Nexar, focusing on automotive safety and connected vehicle intelligence.   Resources: Elan Nyer – LinkedIn | Ownli Josh Hollander –  LinkedIn | Horton International | Insurtech Leadership Show
