I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from interest.co.nz. Today we lead with news that now we are in August, there are only 100 working days until Christmas, and less than 70 until our 2026 general election! You will need to pull your finger out to ensure your 2026 goals are on track to be accomplished. This week will see the release of a number of updates on how the July real estate market performed. More importantly, we will get the June labour market update and that is expected to show rising joblessness (to 5.4%). To be fair, labour market data are lagging indicators. In Australia, Cotality and Domain will report what they saw in their residential real estate markets. And we will get both household spending and cost of living updates for June this week, neither expected to show improvements. We should also note that their fuel excise tax suspension ended last night. From April to June the discount was 32 AUc/liter, for June and July it was 16c. Now there is no relief discount there. Globally it will be all about July PMIs (other than keeping an eye on the warmongers who all show a distinct lack of any idea on how to end the conflicts they started). In the US, the other important data will be their end of week labour market updates in their non-farm payrolls report. There is little evidence to suggest it will be a strong one and markets currently expect another month of less than +100,000 gains (+91,000) and a rising jobless rate (4.3%). We will be tracking their bond market signals closely too. And that the Trump Organisation is regarded by banks as a money-laundering entity barely raises an eyebrow these days, indicates how low the US has fallen. But also, a key background reason risk premiums are rising. In India, they will get a central bank review but no-change to their policy rate (5.25%) is anticipated. We will be tracking those PMIs too, especially in China to see if the private S&P Global versions continue to be more upbeat than the dour official versions. After four months of minor expansion, those official factory PMIs has slipped back into small contraction with a much sharper shift than was expected. After two months of minor expansion, their official services PMI also slipped back into a small contraction, also a sharper shift lower than expected. China's overall growth targets are looking less likely to be achieved the longer the year goes on. But lets not overstate these pullback signals; most countries would love to have their growth levels even at the reduced impetus. China's key issue is that new order levels are fading and exports are the key driver, not internal consumption (which is their goal). So more induced infrastructure stimulus is on the way. Korean industrial production bounced back sharply in June after the minor but unexpected dip in May. The June level was +5.8% higher than a year ago, up +2.3% from May, a heartening rebound for them. The Korean stock market bounced back sharply on Friday after the earlier dives, but they still ended the week down more than -3%. Japanese industrial production recorded a similar recovery in June, up +4.2% from a year ago, up +1.3% for the month. But that was not matched by retail sales in Japan which took a rather large tumble, down -4.1% from the strong year-ago level, up +0.5% from May. The Japanese central bank intervention support for their currency may have been significantly expensive, even if it has succeeded in halting the devaluation with a 3% recovery. Reports indicate they spent US$45 to US$50 bln on the few-days effort. It happened again on Friday, this time in a joint action with the US. And more may be coming. EU inflation came in at 2.9% in July as expected, up marginally from June's 2.8%. Australian producer prices rose +3.6% in June from a year ago, the most since early 2025 and above the anticipated +2.5% and even the 'high' Q1-2026 3.0% level. Inflation is embedding and it is a result that will focus attention by officials. In the US, even though the US Fed held its policy rate unchanged last Thursday (despite 3 dissenters wanting higher rates), markets have pushed US benchmark rates higher anyway. The UST 10 year is +27 bps higher at the end of July than at the beginning. Their 30 year benchmark is also +27 bps higher. Most of these increases came in the past two weeks, and will resonate soon for American home loan borrowers. The updated July University of Michigan sentiment survey confirmed its better July levels, and confirmed lower inflation expectations. Still, these new levels are -11% lower than year-ago levels with perceptions of current conditions -19% lower. These measures are still in the down-trend that started in 2024 even after these better July results. They noted that US consumers remain focused on pocketbook issues like purchasing power, while political or military developments remain more in the background. Also improving in July were the results of the Chicago PMI, clearly benefiting from stockpiling and reshoring still. In the current Q2-2026 earnings season reporting, 86% of S&P 500 companies have reported a positive EPS surprise and 77% of S&P 500 companies has reported a positive revenue surprise. In Canada, they reported their GDP rose modestly in June, a third consecutive rise and the fifth gain in six months as their economy gathers steam. Q2-2026 results aren't yet available but it is clear they will be quite positive, in contrast to the small dip in Q1-2026, and the weak Q2-2025 result. The UST 10yr yield is now just on 4.75%, up +1 bp from this time Saturday, up +7 bps for the week. We make that its highest since January 2025 (briefly) and prior to that October 2023. The 30 year yield is at 5.28% and a 20+ year high. The price of gold has fallen to US$4042/oz, down -US$8 from Saturday down -US$6 for the week. Silver is down -50 USc at just over US$57.50/oz, down -US$1 for the week. Oil prices are little-changed from Saturday still at now just over US$84.50/bbl in the US, while the international Brent price is still just over US$88/bbl. The Kiwi dollar is unchanged from Saturday at just under 58.9 USc, but up +100 bps for the week and back to early June levels. Against the Aussie we are up +10 bps at 83.8 AUc. Against the euro we unchanged at 51.1 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at 62.6 which is also unchanged from this time Saturday, and also up +100 bps for the week. The bitcoin price starts today at US$63,293 and up +0.4% from this time Saturday, down -1.4% for the week. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just on +/-1.0%.

On today's episode, I talk to musician Chad Matheny. Raised in Jacksonville, FL, Chad began recording music as Emperor X in 1998. Though he had a deep interest in science and pursued an advanced degree in physics, music was his true calling, and in 2012 he moved to Berlin to tour more easily. Chad has recorded almost two dozen albums and EPs as Emperor X, and his latest Unified Field was just released at the end of June on Bar/None, and it is fantastic!

The big things you need to know:First, valuation opportunity is opening up in the US equity market from a variety of perspectives.Second, in the aftermath of Wednesday's Fed meeting, we highlight how the stock market tends to experience choppy performance in the first few months under a new Fed Chair.Third, other things that jump out in our updates this week include the return of high EPS quality outperformance as a factor in both the S&P 500 and Russell 2000, the modest uptick in stock market optimism in the Conference Board consumer survey that was out this week, and what we're watching on the midterms (which we continue to see as a risk factor in the months ahead).Fourth, we've gone through our monthly refresh of the models that feed into our 12-month S&P 500 price target and are sticking with our 8,150 forecast, though we continue to believe that the path for stocks will not be a linear one.
This week on The Rumors Are True, we're joined by Justin Jones, drummer and founding member of idle threat, the Nashville-based rock band signed to Tooth & Nail Records.

We also dive into the making of blurred visions, the impact of touring and connecting with fans, and the band's latest chapter with you'll forget the sun. Justin opens up about songwriting, faith, perseverance, and how idle threat continues to create music that speaks honestly about life's hardships while pointing listeners toward hope.

Honeywell has completed its long-awaited breakup, separating Honeywell Aerospace from the newly focused Honeywell Technologies. CSI walks through Honeywell's Q2 2026 earnings report, covering the building automation, process automation, and industrial automation segments, and explains why organic sales growth alone doesn't tell the full story: the real story is what's happening to margins.The conversation digs into the recently closed Johnson Matthey Catalyst Technologies acquisition, the LNG equipment business driving process automation orders, and the divestitures of Honeywell's productivity solutions and warehouse and workflow segments. It also covers the balance sheet, including nearly $34 billion in total debt offset by asset sale proceeds, and Honeywell's 47% remaining equity stake in newly public quantum computing company Quantinuum.Finally, CSI runs Honeywell Technologies stock through a reverse discounted cash flow model using updated adjusted EPS guidance to estimate fair value, and discusses what would make this semiconductor-adjacent industrial and energy transition stock a stronger buy.

Think your gut is healthy because you don't have bloating, constipation or indigestion? Think again. In this episode, Tara explains why you can have significant gut dysbiosis without a single digestive symptom—and why that matters if you're taking HRT. Your gut plays a critical role in how your body metabolises and eliminates estrogen. Tara unpacks the connection between the microbiome, liver detoxification, the estrobolome, and beta-glucuronidase, and explains why simply taking supplements like DIM or calcium D-glucarate isn't addressing the root cause. Whether you're on HRT or supporting your hormones naturally, this episode will help you understand why a healthy gut is essential for healthy hormone metabolism—and why optimising your gut may be one of the most important steps you can take, even if your digestion feels perfectly normal. In this episode: How hormones are metabolised through the liver and gut Why you can have significant gut dysfunction without digestive symptoms Why Tara no longer recommends DIM (and rarely uses milk thistle) The estrobolome explained: your gut's role in estrogen metabolism Why calcium D-glucarate isn't the answer The real cause of elevated beta-glucuronidase Why adjusting your HRT dose may not solve the real problem Mentioned in this episode: PIQUE TEA - These are some of Tara's favourite teas!

Send us Fan MailEps.4 S3 Faith, Free Speech, and the Cost of Speaking TruthThe hosts draw powerful parallels between Kirk's assassination and historical political murders, noting how figures like Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy met similar fates for speaking truths that challenged the status quo. They examine how mainstream media has selectively quoted Kirk to vilify him while ignoring the nuance of his positions, including his refusal to accept funding offers from political powers.Eps 5 S3 Brothers ReflectThe conversation weaves through personal reflections on loss, with powerful memories of their parents' passings and how those experiences transformed their emotional landscape. "My emotions are different after our parents passed away," one brother admits, highlighting how profound loss reshapes our perspectives on life. Their planned visit to their grandmother takes on special significance as they acknowledge it may be "unfortunately for the last time," while still hoping for more time together.Eps 6 S3 Spiritual Warfare in a Divided WorldThroughout our conversation runs an undercurrent of spiritual warfare—the sense that today's events reflect not just political or cultural struggles but a deeper conflict between good and evil. Eps.7 S3 A Conservative TalkFrom there, we widen the lens and tackle the mess of the moment: a grim Texas headline, claims of police stand‑downs, and the way leadership and media shape what we fear and what we ignore. We argue about the government shutdown, funding fights, and how outrage becomes a script. Then we crash straight into culture wars with a spicy take on the Super Bowl halftime debate and the Bad Bunny backlash—who gets the biggest stage, who decides, and why the choice feels bigger than music.Eps.8 S3 Everything Is Bad NewsEd Gein's crimes shaped Psycho, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Silence of the Lambs, and talk about what the series gets right: the psychology, the casting, and the uneasy line between truth and myth.Eps.35 S3Saturday Night FeverA bad day of Uber driving, tips, and not wasting gas • Banking fraud scare, cancelling a card too fast, and getting stuck at Walmart checkout • Claims of political corruption, investigations that go nowhere, and distrust in accountability Eps 37 S3 A Hot Summer Talk, Work and Media ScandalsJoe buys two lottery tickets and if he wins, he will buy a house for Thee Gooch, Sis, Remo and pay for being in the show and partial for the family, and Thee Gooch will built his own houseEps 38 S3 WIFI Technical Difficulties And Media Thee Gooch's having trouble login in the showJoe describing Thee Gooch audio dropping Thee Gooch is getting annoyed with his Wi-Fi Thee Gooch notifies Joe that he wont be on the podcast next weekJoe explains he was tired from work, he ate and drank 3 beers he fell asleep and threw up while he was sleeping and woke up choking and couldn't breathe and was coughing.Thee Gooch explains why are you eating while you go to sleep, there's people that die from that cause.Support our podcastTip us : http://paypal.me/theetalkerspodcasthttps://www.patreon.com/c/theetalkerspodTip us: https://buymeacoffee.com/theetalkers4uTip us : https://cash.app/$TheeTalkers
OpenAI files for a trillion-dollar IPO the same week a pre-release model breaches Hugging Face and 42 state attorneys general open a coordinated investigation. Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman also break down AMD's hyperscaler CPU numbers from Advancing AI, the Moonshot distillation accusations, a wave of coordinated AI governance moves in Washington, and a stacked earnings slate spanning TSMC, Alphabet, IBM, ServiceNow, and Intel. The handpicked topics for this week are: OpenAI compresses a trillion-dollar IPO filing, a 42-state AG investigation, and a Hugging Face breach into five days: OpenAI and Anthropic both filed S-1 paperwork the same week 42 state attorneys general opened a coordinated investigation into OpenAI's data handling and safety practices, and a pre-release model reportedly breached Hugging Face days later. Moorhead and Newman question the timing, noting a rogue-agent narrative surfacing in the same week as a trillion-dollar valuation push draws obvious scrutiny. (The Decode) AMD's Advancing AI event puts a number on its hyperscaler momentum: Lisa Su confirmed Helios ships at the end of Q3 with volume ramping in Q4, backed by two-gigawatt capacity commitments from Microsoft and Anthropic and a claimed 70 to 75 percent share of hyperscaler CPU deployments. Moorhead points to NVIDIA's multi-layer software stack as the harder barrier AMD still has to close. (The Decode) Washington accuses Moonshot of distilling Anthropic's models days after Xi Jinping's WAIC keynote: Xi launched a 29-country AI cooperation organization at the Shanghai World AI Conference, and US officials Kratsios and Bessent followed with claims that Moonshot's Kimi K3 model shows data overlap with Anthropic's Opus models. Newman points to NVIDIA hardware in the training runs as evidence the distillation question extends beyond software alone. (The Decode) Five layers of government moved on AI oversight in a single week: Congress drafted a breach-response framework in reaction to the Hugging Face incident, the White House's 30-day pre-release review framework nears finalization, and state attorneys general and statehouses continue advancing their own rules in parallel. Moorhead notes nearly two decades of prior Capitol Hill engagement compressed into a single week of coordinated action, with each branch pursuing a different definition of the problem. (The Decode) Chinese open-source models now account for roughly a third of US developer traffic, and Moorhead and Newman take opposite sides on what it means: Moorhead argues enterprises are de-risking away from frontier-lab dependency, pointing to demand for smaller, workflow-specific open models. Newman counters with Vercel data showing those models capture 29 percent of gateway tokens against just 4 percent of revenue, framing the shift as a price discount that enterprise dollars have yet to follow. (The Flip) TSMC sells out CoWoS packaging capacity through 2026 and confirms a 10 percent price increase for 2027: The company posted a record quarter and committed $100 billion to its Arizona expansion on top of the pricing move. Newman calls the sustained capital spending a signal that the broader AI buildout still has runway. (Bulls & Bears) Google Cloud grows 82 percent as Alphabet posts its first-ever negative free cash flow quarter: The company raised its capital expenditure guidance to $195 to $205 billion and beat on revenue and EPS once one-time gains from its SpaceX and Anthropic stakes are excluded. Newman frames the spending as evidence Alphabet is prioritizing long-term AI infrastructure position over near-term cash generation. (Bulls & Bears) IBM misses Q2 revenue at $17.16 billion and cuts its full-year growth guide to 4 to 5 percent: Mainframe revenue fell 42 percent as enterprises redirected budget toward GPU and AI infrastructure purchases. CEO Arvind Krishna says a portion of the delayed deal flow has already resumed into the current quarter, pointing toward a potential rebound. (Bulls & Bears) ServiceNow crosses $1 billion in agentic AI annual contract value and raises its full-year guide: Agentic AI usage in production climbed 9x in nine months, and the company reaffirmed a target of $1.5 billion in AI ACV by year end. Newman points to margin compression from recent acquisitions as the tradeoff behind the platform's push into workflow and security convergence. (Bulls & Bears) NetSuite's new agentic platform, Next, becomes part of Six Five's own back-office stack: Newman and Moorhead both confirmed their companies are testing NetSuite Next for finance and accounting workflows. Newman points to the rollout as evidence that established SaaS platforms are absorbing agentic features directly into existing systems. Intel posts its fastest revenue growth since 2011 and lifts 2026 capital spending guidance: EPS came in near double consensus estimates, and CFO David Zinsner signaled a significant capex increase for 2027 tied to 14A demand. Moorhead reads the spending signal as confirmation of an anchor customer for the 14A node, ahead of any formal announcement.

We take a look back at growth and profitability since 2021, which has yielded some surprising results and areas for improvement. Our key messages from the four charts we go through this week are as follows: * Energy versus Tech has been inversely correlated since 2021, with Energy surprisingly having kept pace with the Mag-7 over this time frame. * Despite improving growth expectations Utilities have lagged on higher interest rates. The question is when does improving growth expectations for utilities overcome what might be an ongoing interest rate headwind. * Traditional energy equities are again discounting below normal oil prices…perhaps not quite trough conditions, but something only a little bit better. * There has been considerable sub-sector divergence on profitability and growth over the last 5 years, with some surprising winners, losers, and areas for improvement. LNG, IPPs, midstream, and downstream sectors are all winners. There is scope for improvement from IOCs, both oily and gassy E&Ps, and oil services.

Send us Fan MailWhen the National Park Service added hydrogen peroxide to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, the internet immediately decided it had found the culprit behind the peeling coating.But science doesn't work that way.In this episode, Rudy Stankowitz takes a research-first approach to one of the most discussed pool stories of the year. Instead of asking whether hydrogen peroxide caused a coating failure, he asks a different question:Why was hydrogen peroxide chosen in the first place?Drawing from published scientific literature on cyanobacteria, harmful algal blooms, microbiology, biofilms, and water treatment, Rudy explores how hydrogen peroxide affects microorganisms, why mature biofilms are so difficult to eliminate, and why swimming pool professionals may need to rethink the way they've approached "black algae" for decades.This isn't a product pitch.It isn't a treatment recommendation.And it certainly isn't clickbait.It's an evidence-based discussion designed to separate what science has demonstrated from what still remains a hypothesis.The episode also introduces the first part of Rudy's proposed research protocol—a hypothesis assembled from published mechanisms that has not been validated in controlled swimming pool research—and explains exactly where established science ends and new investigation begins.If you're tired of opinions masquerading as facts, this episode is for you.In This EpisodeWhy the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool was treated with hydrogen peroxideWhy concentration matters more than percentageCorrelation versus causation in coating failuresWhat published research says about hydrogen peroxide and cyanobacterial bloomsThe difference between free-floating algae and mature cyanobacterial biofilmsHow extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) protect biofilmsWhy oxidants often struggle against established biofilmsThe biology behind oxidative stressPhotosystem II, lipid peroxidation, and cellular damage explainedWhy mature biofilms deserve to be studied separatelyWhy Rudy believes better questions lead to better scienceThe first step in a proposed research protocol using aluminum sulfateWhy coagulation and physical removal may reduce oxidant demand before disinfectionWhere the published literature ends—and where hypothesis generation beginsKey TakeawayScience advances by asking better questions—not by rushing to conclusions.This episode doesn't claim to have solved black algae. It challenges listeners to examine what the published research actually supports, recognize the limits of current knowledge, and think critically about where future swimming pool research should go.SponsorsSpecial thanks to the companies that support education and the advancement of the swimming pool industry:Blu-ray XLUnited ChemicalLaMotte CompanyRevved Up ApparelAqua Comfort Water GroupAquaStar Pool ProductsJack's Magic ProductsService Industry NewsConnect with Talking Pools

First and foremost, Pepperwine is a groovy, funky, beachy vibe that is producing infectious music and puts on killer live shows.But they are also some of the kindest, funniest and most supportive humans around. They were the 4th ever interview I did, back when I was co-hosting episodes with George Wacker under Lehigh Valley with Love: Music. They were also part of the first Holiday Spectacular, and then under the Your Next Favorite Band banner, they were the first headliners of our No Planet B Jamboree, and have made various appearances here and there. But never a fully dedicated NextFavBand episode. So tonight, we rectify that!We'll revisit their personal backstories and journeys to musician-life. We'll also hear about the song writing process, and how the bangers are still being created. And the have a brand new anthem called "MSH" that they debuted at Musikfest last year, and lit stages and earholes on fire.Rumor has it that they might play an acoustic version of it live during the broadcast! Don't miss it!Pepperwine Biohe story of Pepperwine began in the fall of 2010 when a guitar player in a punk band biked over to a local music school and told them he needed vocal lessons. The owner said he had just the teacher in mind - a “bad ass” named Kellie. Now over a decade later, that bad ass teacher and guitar player have produced two 5-song EPs, one 11-song full length LP, various singles, a marriage, and...... PEPPERWINE!!With just four members and eight hands, Pepperwine uses voice, piano, synthesizer, guitar, bass, and percussion to create hip shaking-rhythms and head-nodding tunes. The music effortlessly blends elements of soul, pop, funk, and rock with Leading Lady Kellie offering a powerful yet sultry vocal cherry on top.Pepperwine has played over 200 live shows at venues and festivals throughout New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut, and Delaware. The repertoire continues to grow, the grooves are getting more infectious… stay tuned!Text us your thoughts on this episode, and who should be OUR #NextFavBand...As always, our hope is to bring you "your next favorite band".

Netflix just posted its slowest revenue growth in over a year, and the stock got hammered. We break down why the sell-off might be mispricing what's actually happening underneath the numbers.Netflix's Q2 2026 earnings sparked a sharp market reaction, with growth decelerating and forward guidance coming in around 12% for Q3 and Q4. Using fiscal.ai data, we compare Netflix's 325+ million paying subscribers against Disney, Warner Bros. Discovery/Paramount+, Amazon Prime Video, and ad-supported giants like YouTube and Meta. We dig into why Netflix remains the clear leader in paid streaming even as its ad-tier data center buildout has yet to reaccelerate top-line growth.On the financials side, we cover Netflix's 33% operating margin, $3.4 billion in GAAP net income, and $1.5 billion in free cash flow for the quarter, plus the lingering cash impact from the terminated Warner Bros. Discovery merger talks. Then we move to valuation: trailing and forward P/E and price-to-free-cash-flow multiples, and why this may be the cheapest Netflix has traded in three to four years.Is Netflix transitioning from a high-growth streaming stock to a steady, profitable value stock, and does that make current levels an entry point? We break down what the market is pricing in for long-term EPS growth and whether the bar has been set low enough to matter for long-term investors.Semi Insider members get access to CSI's research platform and tools plus deeper research as it happens.

Is a 1% tax enough to change how corporate America returns billions of dollars to shareholders?In this episode of Corporate Finance Explained, we explore the economics of stock buybacks, the new federal 1% excise tax on share repurchases, and why capital allocation decisions can create enormous shareholder value or destroy it.Stock buybacks have become the dominant way companies return capital to investors, but not every repurchase creates value. We break down how buybacks affect earnings per share (EPS), why valuation matters, how the new buyback tax changes the math, and why companies like Apple and JPMorgan approach repurchases very differently than businesses that have made costly capital allocation mistakes.
MAFS 20 Eps 2 & 3 Recap: A Perfect Match Podcast “A Perfect Match” dives into the first weddings and receptions of Married at First Sight Season 20, episodes 2 and 3, with hosts Jason Reed and Aysha Welch. As seven new couples meet at the altar, chemistry sparks, and sometimes fizzles, while families, old flames, and even political questions complicate these brand-new unions. Jason and Aysha break down the most revealing moments, awkward encounters, and early red flags as the couples take their first steps toward marriage. The episode opens with a recap of an exclusive screening event in New York, then moves straight into the whirlwind of wedding day surprises. Marissa and Adam realize they already met two years ago, adding layers of humor and discomfort to their ceremony. Meanwhile, family members like “Logic,” Mecca's outspoken father, bring comic relief and probing questions, while other relatives question every decision from cake slices to dance floor antics.

[School of Everything Else 2026] This is a commissioned show for AJ. We recorded it several months ago, but banked it until the long-awaited release of Christopher Nolan's Odyssey. It is an independent, serialised concept musical, released across nine digital EPs from December 2022 through to December 2024 by Jorge Rivera-Herrans (who also plays Odysseus, amongst others). And this took a certain portion of the Internet by storm, garnering fan projects to animate each of the songs, all of which you can find assembled here in one 2h 22m work of collaborative passion made on one iota the budget of Nolan's IMAX titan. Willow showed this to us on Christmas day and the music and handling of the many characters really stuck with us. This is the most excited I've been about a musical since Hamilton and the original Moana. Statistically, almost none of you have heard this, so we specifically crafted this show to introduce what Jorge and company achieved here and hopefully get a bunch of new people with these catchy-ass songs bouncing round their heads. This is DreamWorks' Prince of Egypt and Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas to Ridley Scott's Exodus: Gods & Kings and his Robin Hood.

In this mid-year outlook episode of Facts vs Feelings, Ryan Detrick, Chief Market Strategist at Carson Group, and Sonu Varghese, Chief Macro Strategist at Carson Group, revisit their 2026 forecast and explain why they've raised their S&P 500 target from 12-15% to 15-18% for the year, while holding bonds steady at 3-5%. They walk through how AI capex has become a macroeconomic story as much as a market one, contributing roughly 90 basis points per quarter to real GDP growth, and why hyperscaler spending plans for 2026 and 2027 keep getting revised sharply higher.The conversation covers the labor market's quiet resilience, why business creation data suggests confidence rather than desperation, an inflation picture that isn't going away despite market expectations for Fed rate hikes, and a sector rotation story where former "value" stocks like Micron have become momentum plays almost overnight. Ryan and Sonu also dig into earnings estimate revisions, midterm-year volatility patterns, diversifiers like gold and managed futures, and swap stories from their World Cup travels before previewing next week's guest.[Key Takeaways]Carson raised its 2026 S&P 500 target from 12-15% to 15-18% at the midpoint of the year, with the index already up 11% total return year-to-date; bonds remain forecast at 3-5%.AI-related hardware and software investment (excluding data centers) has contributed about 45% of real GDP growth over the last five quarters, roughly 90 basis points per quarter.Hyperscaler capex estimates keep climbing: the five largest tech spenders were projected to spend $470 billion in 2026 back in November; that figure is now $740 billion, with 2027 estimates rising from $530 billion to nearly $900 billion.S&P 500 2026 EPS estimates have risen from $308 to $339 a share (up 10%) since the start of the year, with 2027 estimates up 12%, led by technology, energy, and materials.The labor market shows underlying strength despite headline softness, with unemployment at 4.2%, average payroll growth around 110,000 a month, and falling continuing claims.Inflation remains sticky due to incomplete tariff pass-through, reshoring-related cost increases, and rising computer/software prices, a reversal from the deflationary tech trends of the 1990s.Jump to:0:00 - Welcome And The Midyear Setup1:45 - Why We Raised The Stock Target5:38 - AI Spending Shows Up In GDP9:44 - The Consumer Looks Better Than Feels14:20 - Business Creation As A Confidence Signal17:08 - The Real Leaders Inside “Tech”18:53 - Earnings Keep Getting Revised Higher27:03 - The Inflation Problem Isn't Gone31:06 - The Fed Pause Versus Hike Pricing35:00 - Second-Half Equity Playbook And Rotation42:19 - Volatility, Breadth, And Midterm Patterns49:06 - Bonds, Oil Headlines, Gold, Diversifiers52:55 - World Cup Travel Notes And Wrap-Up57:08 - DisclosuresConnect with Ryan:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryandetrick/• X: https://x.com/RyanDetrickConnect with Sonu:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonu-varghese-phd/• X: https://x.com/sonusvarghese?lang=enQuestions about the show?

Convertible debt can offer an issuer a lower-cost financing alternative, but the accounting can be complex depending on the instrument's terms, settlement features, and related transactions. This episode discusses the key accounting models for convertible debt, including bifurcation under ASC 815, the own stock scope exception, substantial premium model, single instrument model, related features such as capped calls and contingent interest, and diluted EPS considerations.
