Dave Simons, Partner & Managing Director of One Private Wealth, joins Chris and Amy and is hesitant to say that we're for sure in the late summer economic doldrums; what is margin buying?; why is the dividend yield at the S&P 500 so low?; are we finally seeing some dropping home prices in some areas?
Last week saw the National Party go through a period of suspected internal conflict, after a leadership challenge was mounted against Prime Minister Christopher Luxon. Following a multi-hour long caucus meeting, Luxon spoke to media, claiming he has the full support of his caucus. National MP and former minister Chris Penk was subsequently stripped of his portfolios. The incident has raised concerns over Luxon's ability to lead both his party and the country, especially as this is not the first leadership vote this year. Also last week, the ACT Party proposed two new policies they would campaign on in the leadup to this year's election. First, thanks to calls for a bed levy in Auckland, ACT has instead posed a local tourism dividend that would come directly out of central government funding. They say this dividend would be better suited to address the problem of local government funds for tourism and arts/culture, though some have been sceptical. The second ACT party proposal is to make student services fees at universities voluntary, so that students can choose the services they'd like to pay for from a checklist. To discuss each of these issues News Director Castor spoke with the ACT Party's Simon Court, beginning with the National Party leadership.
Een kwartaal om door een ringetje te halen! ABN maakte meer winst, zag het rendement op het eigen vermogen toenemen, de buffers stijgen en de kosten zakken. Het was bovendien allemaal veel beter dan waarop analisten hadden gerekend. En de aandeelhouder? Die is blij, want het dividend gaat omhoog. Deze aflevering hebben we het over het succes van ABN. Waar doet de bank het goed en waar kunnen ze het nóg beter doen? Ook gaat het over de buffers van de bank. Die staan er zo goed voor, dat ze op overnamepad kunnen. Moeten ze dat ook doen? Verder duiken we in de wereld van cloudverhuur. We hebben het over een Amerikaanse hit, CoreWeave. De omzet verdubbelde en beleggers duiken op het aandeel.

Dupree Financial Group Blog & Podcast The Tom Dupree Show The Financial Hour · Hour 2 · August 8, 2026 Is the AI Rally a Bubble? What Retirees Should Watch For The Tom Dupree Show | Dupree Financial Group | dupreefinancial.com | 859-233-0400 By Tom Dupree, Founder, Dupree Financial Group III Ii I iiI. Is this AI Rally Built to Last? Turn on any market report lately, and you’ll hear the same story: a handful of AI-linked names are doing most of the heavy lifting. On this week’s Financial Hour, Tom sat down with analyst James Dupree and market analyst Michael Dawahare to talk through what’s actually driving that rally — and it’s a more complicated story than “AI stocks are up.” The conversation opened with reshoring: American companies bringing manufacturing back from overseas, and the market slowly absorbing the idea that this makes more sense than the offshoring wave of the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s. From there it moved into the AI infrastructure buildout, the old industrial companies suddenly catching a second wind because of it, and a cautionary tale about a leveraged AI hedge fund that lost 78% of its value in three weeks. Tom, James, and Michael walked through the Gold Rush and dot-com parallels, why diversification matters more than ever in a fast-moving sector, and where Dupree Financial Group is finding value right now — financials, insurance, mortgage REITs, and energy. The short version: something real is happening in AI and in American manufacturing. But a real trend and a sure thing are two very different things, and knowing the difference is the whole job. “There’s gonna be people riding high on AI right now who in four years may not be. Don’t just focus on the new technology — ask what are the derivative trades, what can go wrong. Because something will.” — Tom Dupree Topics Covered Why the market is absorbing the reshoring of U.S. manufacturing — and why that’s different from a tariff headline The AI infrastructure buildout, and which “old economy” companies (Johnson Controls, Cummins) are catching a second wind from it The Leopold Aschenbrenner story: how a 4x-leveraged AI fund went from $45 billion to a forced $10 billion sale in about three weeks Gold Rush and dot-com parallels — and who actually made the money when a boom goes bust Regional mall traffic and the return of in-person, live entertainment spending as a signal worth watching Why financials, insurance, and mortgage REITs are on Dupree Financial Group’s radar right now The capital gains tax cost of trying to “sell at the top” and buy back in lower Why a “set it and forget it” approach is especially risky in a fast-moving sector like AI Security concerns as new AI models test the limits of their own guardrails Key Takeaways Reshoring is showing up in the data, not just the headlines. Manufacturing activity has expanded for several consecutive months, and reshoring initiatives have driven a meaningful number of announced U.S. manufacturing jobs since 2010 — a trend the show connected directly to the “picks and shovels” companies benefiting from it. AI infrastructure spending is running far ahead of AI revenue. The largest tech companies are on pace to spend hundreds of billions on AI infrastructure this year alone — spending that, by some estimates, is outpacing the revenue AI products are currently generating. That gap is exactly what Tom, James, and Michael were pointing to when they said “something will go wrong.” Leverage turns a good idea into a forced sale. The Leopold Aschenbrenner fund didn’t lose money because AI was a bad bet — it lost money because a 4x-leveraged position can only absorb so much of a pullback before it’s liquidated. That’s a lesson about position sizing, not about AI. History says the “picks and shovels” companies often outlast the flashiest players. Tom’s Levi Strauss story from the Gold Rush isn’t just a fun aside — it’s the show’s real thesis. When a boom happens, the companies supplying the boom sometimes outlast the speculative names chasing it. Diversification is what protects you when some AI names don’t make it. Nobody on the show argued AI is fake. The argument was that not every AI company will succeed, and a portfolio built around five or ten concentrated bets is a very different risk profile than one spread across sectors. Trying to time a pullback can trigger its own tax bill. Selling a highly appreciated position to avoid a possible drop means paying capital gains tax on the gain — which, as James pointed out, can functionally act like selling at the top even if the stock never actually drops that far. Dividend-paying sectors remain the core of the plan, regardless of what AI does next. Financials, insurance, mortgage REITs, and energy were named as areas of current focus — companies tied to real, ongoing economic activity rather than to a single technology cycle. “Set it and forget it” is the riskiest approach in a fast-moving sector. The show’s closing message: stay alert, stay informed, and know what you own — because in a sector that can move 10-15% in a day, being asleep at the wheel is exactly when it costs you. The Reframe: What This Means for Your Portfolio Here’s where we’d push the conversation a step further than the show had time for. The AI story and the reshoring story aren’t really two separate topics — they’re the same story told twice. Both are examples of real, durable economic activity attracting an amount of capital that may or may not be justified by what it produces. The five largest U.S. tech companies are on pace to spend somewhere in the range of $660–690 billion on AI infrastructure this year alone, nearly double the year before, according to industry analysis from Futurum Group. Other estimates put the ratio of AI infrastructure spending to AI software revenue at close to eighteen-to-one, per S&P Global research reported by ETF Trends. That doesn’t mean the technology is fake — it means the payoff isn’t set to arrive on the same timeline as the spending, and it may not arrive on that timeline at all. The Bank for International Settlements — essentially the central bank for the world’s central banks — has already flagged the scale of this spending as a risk worth watching, noting that combined AI capital expenditure across 2025 and 2026 is outpacing the free cash flow of the companies funding it, per Fortune’s reporting. Fidelity’s own research team has taken a more measured view, noting that as of early 2026 they aren’t yet seeing some of the classic bubble warning signs, like shrinking free cash flow among the AI leaders — but they’re watching closely, and so should you (Fidelity). Both things can be true at once, which is exactly what Tom, James, and Michael said on air. This is precisely the environment dividend-focused, diversified investing was built for. Research from Hartford Funds, using data going back to 1973, has found that companies that grew or initiated a dividend have historically delivered higher returns than the broader market with meaningfully less volatility than non-dividend payers (Hartford Funds). That’s the case for owning financials, insurance, and energy alongside — not instead of — exposure to the AI and reshoring trends. You get to participate in the buildout without betting the whole plan on any single piece of it working out on schedule.

Value investing spent fifteen years out of fashion. This year, it's beating the index almost everywhere you look — energy up roughly 20%, industrials 17%, healthcare 15%, utilities 14%, financials 12% — while the S&P 500 sits near 8–9%. This week we dig into the return of value investing and what the greatest investors of all time can teach us right now. On this week's Money On Tap, we go deep on the tradition that runs from Benjamin Graham through Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger: buying good businesses at sensible prices, collecting the dividends they pay you, and letting compounding do the heavy lifting. We explain why value went dark from roughly 2009 to 2025 — cheap money was rocket fuel for growth stocks — and why higher interest rates have flipped the script: growth borrows, value pays you. We connect the rotation to worn-out tech traders taking gains, the 401(k) flywheel, and the demographic engine underneath it all — roughly 10,000 baby boomers reaching retirement age every day, all needing present-day income. Plus Pepsi's 53-year dividend streak and a candid conversation about when mutual funds and ETFs stop making sense and direct stock ownership starts. What you'll learn:The sector scoreboard: energy ~20%, industrials ~17%, healthcare ~15%, utilities ~14%, financials ~12%, staples ~9% — vs. the S&P 500 near 8–9%Graham vs. Buffett: buy cheap and sell at fair value, or buy outstanding businesses and hold for decadesMunger's rule: "The big money is not in the buying or the selling, but in the waiting"Why low interest rates buried value for fifteen years — and why higher rates brought it backMargin of safety: the idea that protects you when you're wrongWhy money is rotating into companies that pay you to own them — dividends over promisesThe demographic engine: 10,000 boomers a day retiring and the demand for present-day incomeThe compounding story: Buffett's American Express dividends now exceed his entire original investment — every yearWhen funds stop making sense: the case for direct stock ownership at higher net worthPlus Money In The News:SpaceX says it's coming for AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile customers — but does satellite cell service actually work?The Treasury has refunded $100 billion in invalidated tariff revenue to companies — and none of it is coming back to youA tale of two housing markets: luxury demand surges while starter-home buyers finally see inventoryWant a white paper on this week's topic?

It struggled while near-zero interest rates favored growth stocks, but higher rates flipped the equation: in 2026, value sectors like energy (~20%), industrials (~17%), and healthcare (~15%) are outpacing the S&P 500's roughly 8–9%. The appeal is simple — instead of borrowing to chase growth, these companies pay shareholders real income today, and reinvested dividends compound over decades.

Record Highs, Negative Gas Prices, and the Discipline Dividend Host Richard Cunningham sits down with co-host Luke Roush and returning guest Jordan Strebeck of Fortress Energy Partners for a conversation that starts at the S&P 500's all-time high and ends at a Permian Basin wellhead where operators are paying to get rid of their own natural gas. The numbers alone are worth the listen: four hyperscalers on pace for more than $700 billion in AI infrastructure spending this year, an IPO market that just absorbed the world's largest offering, and a global oil supply chain that's quietly burned through 400 million barrels of inventory since February. Jordan brings the view from the ground in Midland, Texas — where the domestic shale industry is showing more capital discipline than anyone expected, even as Middle East conflict keeps rewriting the energy math in real time. Key Topics: Markets hitting record highs despite tariffs, an unresolved Middle East conflict, and zero rate cuts in 2026 The AI CapEx arms race: how Wall Street is starting to separate real cash-flow return from spend for spend's sake What SpaceX's blockbuster IPO signals for Anthropic and the rest of the 2026 IPO pipeline 1,500 unicorns and counting — why so many private companies are stuck waiting to go public Inside the Permian Basin: negative natural gas prices, the AI power crunch, and why the U.S. needs more of everything — nuclear, gas, solar, and wind What 400 million barrels of drawn-down global oil inventory means for prices over the next five years A closing word on presence, parenting, and what it means to steward the time we're given This episode is a masterclass in reading past the headline number — whether that's an index level, an IPO valuation, or a barrel price — to the stewardship question underneath it. For faith-driven investors trying to separate signal from noise in a genuinely strange market, this is a conversation worth sitting with.

De directie van de Duitse Commerzbank bleef het maar proberen: de cijfers opkrikken om weerbaar te blijven tegen een vijandige overname. Nou, het opkrikken van die cijfers, dat is gelukt. Commerzbank gaat bovendien door met het inkopen van eigen aandelen. Maar het verzet tegen de overname, dat wordt nu toch gestaakt. De top van Commerzbank is in gesprek met Unicredit, bevestigen ze vandaag. We maken de balans op en onderzoeken of de bank nu sterker is geworden door deze vijandige overname, of niet. Over overnames gesproken: de kogel lijkt bijna door de kerk bij Easyjet. De Amerikaanse investeringsmaatschappijen Castlelake en Apollo waren in een biedingenstrijd verwikkeld. Maar die eerste trekt zijn bod nu in, waardoor die tweede er met de winst vandoor lijkt te gaan. Toch houden beleggers nog een slag om de arm. Waarom? Ook dat gaan we bespreken. . En je hoort over een broekie op de AEX: SBM Offshore. Dat wordt de hemel in geprezen na goeie cijfers en een nog betere outlook.

I used the Simply Safe Dividends stock screener to find dividend stocks with yields of 4% or higher, safe dividends, low valuations, and strong returns on capital. Five companies made the cut: Watsco (WSO), Paychex (PAYX), Amdocs (DOX), PepsiCo (PEP), and T. Rowe Price (TROW). For each one, I explain in plain English why the stock is down, what the business actually does, and what I would want to see before buying it. I also show why a high dividend yield is not free money — yield rises when the price falls, so screening for high yields means finding companies the market is worried about. At the end, I reveal my full $730,000 dividend portfolio.Special Offer - One FREE Month of Simply Safe Dividends... no credit card required! Click HERE!Hartford Funds Power of Dividends study

In this episode, I'll break down whether Pepsi's 4+% yield, improving dividend coverage, and 54-year dividend growth streak make the stock a buy today, or whether slowing growth, weak North American volume, and more than $50 billion in debt are warning signs investors shouldn't ignore.

Apple heeft een erg goed kwartaal achter de rug. De omzet steeg flink, naar meer 109 miljard dollar. Dat is beter dan waarop was gerekend. Het waren vooral de iPhones die het ‘m deden. De helft van de omzet komt van de telefoons. En ook de winst (net geen 30 miljard) zag er perfect uit. Al met al mooie cijfers voor afzwaaiend topman Tim Cook. Alleen wordt zijn laatste optreden overschaduwd door een pijnlijke waarschuwing. Hij verwacht namelijk dat de chiptekorten de omzet én winst gaan raken. Deze aflevering hebben we het over die tegenvaller. Beleggers reageren heftig op het nieuws, wij zoeken uit of die reactie terecht is. Beter gaat het bij Amazon. Dat aandeel schiet omhoog. Beleggers reageren helemaal happy op de resultaten én de investeringsplannen van de techreus. Ook Amazon blijft als een malle geld in AI investeren. 220 miljard dollar dit jaar, weer 20 miljard dan eerder begroot. Alleen afgelopen kwartaal gaf het al 53 miljard uit aan nieuwe datacenters. Hebben we het ook over Universal Music Group. Dat opende ook de boeken, maar daar werd dan weer extreem somber op gereageerd. In korte tijd ging er meer dan 20 procent van de beurswaarde door het putje. Verder deze aflevering: Kan ASML de Chinese copycat's aan?

A century-old tech company just took a gut punch from Wall Street. A century-old oil giant hasn't had an exciting headline in years. Ten years from now, which one do you actually want to own?In this episode, Greg takes the long view on two very different dividend payers. The first is IBM ($IBM), a stock that ran from the low $200s to a high near $325 over the past year as its quantum computing story caught fire. It then dropped back to around $205 after disappointing contract delays spooked the market. Greg walks through why the selloff isn't the end of the story: IBM's debt has improved, revenue is growing again after years of stagnation, and at roughly 17 times earnings, he argues investors are no longer paying for the quantum computing option.The second is Chevron ($CVX), a stock with none of IBM's drama and, in Greg's view, almost all of the certainty. Diversified across exploration, refining, and chemicals, with a dividend track record that held even when oil prices went negative in 2020, Chevron represents a different kind of long-term bet. It's not a call option on a breakthrough, but a compounding cash flow machine that is also a quiet beneficiary of AI.Two very different companies, one shared idea: real wealth is built by holding through the boring years, not by chasing the exciting ones.TOPICS COVERED[00:41] Introduction: Two Long-Term Stories, Two Different Bets [03:04] IBM ($IBM): From Story Stock to Speed Bump [04:47] Inside IBM's Business: Software, Consulting, and Red Hat [08:41] The Quantum Computing Bet Behind the Stock [13:44] IBM's 10-Year Dividend Growth Math [16:24] Chevron ($CVX): The Cash Flow Machine [18:17] Chevron's Dividend Track Record and Financial Strength [20:40] Diversification: Upstream, Downstream, and Chemicals [21:15] Chevron as a Natural Gas and AI Play [23:49] Why Chevron Over Exxon ($XOM)?

De chipmaker heeft een fantastisch kwartaal achter de rug. Het ziet de omzet met 25 procent groeien. Dat is de sterkste kwartaalgroei die ze sinds 2011 gezien hebben bij Intel. De vraag is nog steeds groter dan ze aankunnen. Deze aflevering hebben we het over de chipmaker. Kunnen ze deze groei doorzetten? En kan China zorgen voor extra inkomsten? Ook gaat het over de investeringen. Intel wil die (net als een Tesla en Alphabet) opvoeren. Maar krijgt het van aandeelhouders wél de goedkeuring daarvoor? Ook hoor je over een aantal orders die Intel binnen heeft gesleept. Dat zijn opdrachten die een bedreiging kunnen worden voor het Nederlandse Besi. Verder hebben we het over de nieuwe heffingen van president Trump. Dit keer grijpt 'ie naar een wet uit de jaren 70. We zoeken voor je uit of dit nu wel of niet erg is voor jouw Europese aandelen. Over aandelen gesproken. We hebben het over een recordaantal ETF's. Donner vertelt het je aan de hand van een spaghettikanon. En we hebben het over Arcadis. Dat geeft toe dat het een overnamebod van een Canadese concurrent heeft afgewezen. Het tweede bod bestuderen ze. Betekent het dat Arcadis binnenkort van de beurs wordt gehaald?

Het mocht drie jaar duren maar het is eindelijk zover. Randstad groeit weer, en nu echt! De omzet nam met 2 procent toe, en er wordt zelfs weer winst gemaakt. En dat komt deels door de oorlog in het Midden-Oosten. Hoe dat zit hoor je deze aflevering. En dan zoeken we ook uit hoe houdbaar die groeibron voor Randstad is. Minder mooi ziet het er bij KPN uit. Dat ziet juist de omzet dalen. Specifiek de inkomsten van zakelijke klanten doet het slecht, die krimpen met een vijfde ten opzichte van een jaar eerder. De topman denkt dat het wel goed komt, dat het de rest van het jaar wel weer bijtrekt. Is hij te laconiek? Verder hoor je over de beurs van Hong Kong. Daar liggen beurshandelaren en de uitbater in de clinch over wonton-noedels en geroosterd varken. En we hebben een déjà vu bij Nike. Het kledingmerk gaat - alweer - afscheid nemen van allerlei distributeurs. Pakt het deze keer dan wél goed uit?

If you've researched whole life insurance for Infinite Banking, you've probably seen whole life insurance dividend rates advertised. 5.76%. 6.5%. And you've probably wondered: is higher better, and how do I compare policies using this number? Here's the answer, stated plainly: a higher dividend rate does not mean a better policy. Chasing it, without understanding the bigger picture, leads people to make poor decisions about which policy to choose. That instinct to find one comparable number isn't foolish. But the dividend rate is one of the most misunderstood figures in whole life insurance, and treating it as the answer skips past everything that actually determines how a policy performs. https://youtu.be/JSVn8bnHy1g This isn't an argument that dividends don't matter. They do, and you want them. It's an argument that the rate by itself is one data point in a much bigger picture, and using it as your primary basis for comparison will mislead you. Time to peel back the layers and look at what's really going on underneath that number. The core ideas:Base Premium Versus Paid-Up AdditionsParticipating Versus Non-ParticipatingDirect Recognition Versus Non-Direct RecognitionDoes a higher dividend rate mean a better whole life insurance policy?What does a whole life insurance dividend rate actually tell you?Are whole life insurance dividends guaranteed?Are whole life insurance dividends taxable?Why doesn't a 6% dividend rate mean my cash value grows 6%?What is a participating whole life insurance policy?How should I actually compare whole life insurance companies? The core ideas: A 6% dividend rate does not mean your cash value grows 6% that year There's no industry standard for how dividends are calculated or reported, so comparing rates across companies isn't apples-to-apples Policy design (how much goes to base premium versus paid-up additions) affects dividend crediting more than the rate itself A 10 to 15-year dividend history tells you more than this year's number Direct recognition versus non-direct recognition makes illustrated comparisons unreliable The real comparison criteria: financial strength, dividend history, company friendliness toward policy loans, and your own funding behavior What a Whole Life Insurance Dividend Actually Is A stock dividend is a board of directors deciding to distribute company profit per share. A whole life insurance dividend from a mutual company is classified as a return of premium instead, which is also why it isn't taxable. Mutual companies price policies conservatively, especially around mortality cost, the biggest expense they can't fully control. When actual experience comes in better than projected, the surplus gets returned to policyholders as a dividend. The "they're just giving your money back" objection misses something. If you paid a million in cumulative premiums over forty years and end up with two million in cash value, that's growth that was conservatively deferred, not a refund. In some years, the dividend paid can exceed that year's entire premium. For a fuller breakdown of how dividends are calculated, taxed, and what your options are for using them, we have a dedicated dividends article worth reading, along with a closer look at what dividends are and aren't. The rest of this piece focuses specifically on the rate itself and why it's so often misread. Why a 6% Dividend Rate Doesn't Mean Your Cash Value Grows 6% Here's the single most damaging misconception in this conversation. Social media commentary loves the math of "6% dividend minus your loan rate equals your spread." That math is wrong, because the declared rate and your actual crediting aren't the same thing. The declared rate is largely a gross figure applied across the whole pool of policyholders. What reaches your individual contract is net of mortality costs and other expenses, and depends heavily on your age and where you sit in the life of the policy. You can think of it this way: the cash value is chasing the death benefit. Actuarially, a policy's cash value has to rise enough to equal the death benefit by around age 121. A 70-year-old has far less time left to compound toward that than a 10-year-old, so their cash value has to climb proportionally more, even under the exact same declared rate. That's also why two people holding the same company's policy, with the same declared rate, see different increases in their own cash value. The rate is an input into a calculation, not the outcome of one. Erase "dividend rate equals my growth rate" from how you think about this. The better question is: what's actually driving my policy's performance? The Two Sides of Your Illustration: Guaranteed and Non-Guaranteed Every whole life policy grows through two combined mechanisms: guaranteed interest and non-guaranteed dividends. An illustration shows both sides separately. The guaranteed side shows zero dividends, the contractual minimum the company is obligated to deliver regardless of performance. The non-guaranteed side shows what happens if today's declared dividend rate continues unchanged every year, reinvested into paid-up additions. That's a big assumption stacked on another. A projection showing a large cash value at age 92 isn't a prediction; it's what today's number would produce if nothing about it ever changed, which it will. Dividend rates move in line with the company's actual performance over time. The number on page one of an illustration is a snapshot, not a forecast. There's a meaningful upside, though. Once a dividend is actually declared and paid, it locks in. It becomes part of the guaranteed side of your contract and is never removed, even if future rates decline. This is exactly why comparing two illustrations on dividend rate alone falls apart. Two different companies can show the identical declared rate and still project completely different cash values twenty or thirty years out, because the rate gets applied differently depending on contract design, your age, and the specific year. The rate isn't the variable that explains the gap. Design is. Why Policy Design Drives Performance More Than the Dividend Rate This is the part that surprises most people, and it's worth slowing down for. Base Premium Versus Paid-Up Additions Dividend crediting isn't applied evenly across every dollar in your policy. The base policy receives a noticeably larger proportion of dividend crediting than paid-up additions, or PUAs, do, and there's a clear mechanical reason why. The company knows your base premium will be funded for the life of the contract, one way or another. Because of that certainty, they spread the base policy's mortality cost across the entire contract term and attach a proportionally larger death benefit to it. A bigger death benefit means more cash value has to "chase" it, which translates into a bigger dividend on that portion of the policy. PUAs work differently. They're optional, purchased year by year, priced at one-year-renewable-term cost in the year you buy them. A PUA purchased at 40 buys substantially more death benefit than the same dollar amount purchased at 60, sometimes around 10 times the premium early on, versus closer to 1.5 times later in the contract. Less death benefit to chase means a smaller dividend. Some carriers make this visible. Lafayette Life, mentioned here only as an illustrative example, breaks out the base-versus-PUA dividend split on annual statements. Early in a policy, around 90% of the total dividend commonly flows to the base. The practical takeaway: if dividend capture is what you're optimizing for, the proportion of base premium in your policy design predicts performance far better than the headline rate ever will. One caution, though. It's not as simple as "always maximize base." Higher PUA funding lowers a policy's overall mortality cost too, which also lifts crediting elsewhere. Design involves real trade-offs, not a single lever to max out. And beyond design entirely, the biggest variable left is you. How consistently you fund the policy and how you use it over decades shapes performance more than any number on an illustration. What Actually Drives Whole Life Insurance Dividend Rates The real engine behind a dividend rate is company performance: actual mortality experience and expenses compared against what the company projected. Beat the projections, and there's more surplus to return. That's why a ten to fifteen-year look-back at a company's dividend history tells you more than this year's headline figure. A company whose dividends trended steadily or upward through real downturns is showing fiscal discipline likely to continue. A company judged on a single year's number gives you very little to go on. Recent history offers a case study here. The COVID years were a real-world blip: some carriers had loosened underwriting standards to bring in more premium volume, leaving them exposed to higher mortality costs when conditions shifted. Others held tight, conservative underwriting the whole way through. That frustrates some applicants in the short term, but it lets those companies forecast their future dividend capacity with far more confidence. The next time two companies are separated by a tenth of a percentage point this year, recognize that comparison for what it is: short-range thinking applied to a long-range product. Participating Policies and the Recognition Question Two structural distinctions decide whether dividends exist at all for a given policy, and whether comparing rates across companies even makes sense in the first place. Participating Versus Non-Participating Only participating policies are eligible for dividends. The company's charter spells out that policyholders share in profits. A non-participating policy still carries guaranteed interest,...

Richard Rosso & Jonathan McCarty explore some of the biggest retirement and investing questions facing Americans today. We examine how SECURE Act 2.0 is accelerating the "Rothification" of retirement savings, why catch-up Roth contributions remain a powerful planning tool, and what investors need to know about employer Roth matching and the long-term tax implications. We also tackle one of the hottest debates in retirement planning: Are dividend stocks really safer, or are investors being seduced by yield? We examine the arguments popularized by Dave Ramsey and Suze Orman, discuss whether dividends actually provide better retirement income, and explain why total return—not yield alone—should drive long-term investment decisions. Along the way, we'll discuss how today's market environment, disruptive technologies, and changing tax policies could reshape retirement planning for years to come. Plus, we preview our upcoming "Narrative Busters" series, where we challenge some of Wall Street's most widely accepted investment beliefs. 0:00 INTRO 0:19 - Butt stuff & Taxes 3:39 - MAHA & Homeopathy (Health & Wealth are Connected) 5:45 - Secure Act 2.0 & Rothification of America 9:53 - Do Not Stop Catch-up Contributions to Roths 12:58 - Putting Employer Matches in Roth accounts 14:15 - Dealing with Tax Implications (Bending Over) 15:45 - Temperature Technology 19:11 - Take the Pain of Taxes Now vs Later (Will They Tax Our Roths?) 20:23 - The Roth Saga of Peter Thiel 22:48 - The Tax Cascade is Coming 25:05 - Suze Orman, Dave Ramsey Rationale on Dividend Paying Stocks 27:58 - Dividend = Safety? 32:47 - Seduced by Yield 37:00 - If You Want Income... 39:15 - Impact of Disruptive Companies 40:39 - Narrative Busters tease (Which Ghost Buster is Who?

David Gray is the CEO of FedUp Foods, a values-driven beverage company serving major retailers. His purpose-driven leadership has earned national recognition, including being named one of the MO 100 Top Impact CEOs, an annual ranking of purpose-driven business leaders, and receiving the Pros to Know Award. David believes the best leaders never force a choice between empathy and accountability. In times of uncertainty, people need both. Connection creates the trust that makes accountability possible. In this conversation, David explains how leading through Hurricane Helene reinforced the importance of putting people first while communicating clearly through uncertainty. He shares the practical crisis leadership framework that guided his team through Hurricane Helene, explains why values become even more important as organizations scale, and reflects on what changed his mind about leadership: people really can grow when leaders take the time to understand and develop them. Whether you're leading through change or simply trying to build a stronger culture, this conversation offers a practical framework for balancing compassion with accountability while staying true to your values.

[06:16] Leading through Hurricane Helene and what it taught and what leaders need to think differently in disruption [10:22] The four-point crisis playbook [13:38] We've had 20 years of stability—is this the new normal or the regular normal?

[31:58] What leadership belief did you finally unlearn? [33:56] Your one main thought for leaders listening Memorable Quotes "If you don't have the right values, then you can't nurture a culture." "We need to create a culture that's ground up, not top down." "You need to understand where your people are at. You need to know if they're safe and you need to understand what their needs are." "You don't have to have all the answers, but you're keeping people abreast of the work that you're going." "We are doing more with less. That's just the reality and that the strategies that we put in place can be disrupted at any time." "We have never had to compromise in a way that takes away from our mission." "If you don't connect, I guess that accountability piece could probably feel like harassment." "We have the privilege and the responsibility to develop our people both personally and professionally because they spend probably more time with us than they do with their friends and their loved ones."
