Discover why November is typically a good month.  Are you on track for financial freedom...or not? Financial freedom is a combination of money, compounding and time (my McT Formula). How well you invest can make the biggest difference to your financial freedom and lifestyle. If you invested well for the long-term, what a difference it would make because the difference between investing $100k and earning 5 percent or 10 percent on your money over 30 years, is the difference between it growing to $432,194 or $1,744,940, an increase of over $1.3 million dollars. Your compounding rate, and how well you invest, matters!  INVESTING IS WHAT THE BE WEALTHY & SMART VIP EXPERIENCE IS ALL ABOUT - Invest in digital assets and stock ETFs for potential high compounding rates - Receive an Asset Allocation model with ticker symbols and what % to invest -Monthly LIVE investment webinars with Linda 10 months per year, with Q & A -Private VIP Facebook group with daily community interaction -Weekly investment commentary -Extra educational wealth classes available -Pay once, have lifetime access!

Don and Tom unpack why even smart, financially literate people sometimes need a financial advisor — prompted by Morningstar's Christine Benz explaining why she hires one. They explore the value of second opinions, professional organization, tax guidance, spending permission, and succession planning. The conversation also draws lines around who doesn't need an advisor (DIY investors under 50 with good discipline) versus who does (retirees, disorganized investors, and anyone over 65 facing complexity). Later, they tackle listener questions about small-cap value ETFs — comparing AVUV, DFSV, and SLYV — and close with a retirement scenario review for a disciplined 77-year-old federal retiree. A lighthearted finish touches on long-term care insurance, empty nesting, and the Raiders' black hole stadium. 0:04 Reintroducing the need for financial help (but not that kind of help) 1:17 Christine Benz's surprising admission: she has a financial planner 2:27 The value of a “responsible second opinion” 3:25 Why Benz says peace of mind has real value 3:50 Reasons to hire an advisor: second opinions, tax guidance, rebalancing, perspective 4:54 When hourly financial advice makes sense 6:38 Organization and accountability as hidden benefits 8:08 The disinterested spouse problem 8:40 Why succession planning matters more than you think 9:32 “Permission to spend” — an underrated role of advisors 10:19 Who doesn't need an advisor: young savers and disciplined investors 11:27 When to get a second opinion even if you're DIY 12:18 Spotting bad advice and hidden annuities 13:03 Who does need an advisor: hodgepodge portfolios and over-50 investors 14:09 Complexity and the need for help beyond 65 14:47 The problem of small investors being preyed upon by salespeople 15:52 Listener question: adding small-cap value exposure 16:47 Comparing AVUV, DFSV, and SLYV performance and structure 19:00 Expense ratios and diversification differences 20:18 Don and Tom's ETF verdict 21:10 Retirement checkup: 77-year-old with pension and LTC coverage 22:06 Evaluating liquidity, income, and survivorship 23:48 The vanishing quality of long-term care policies 24:56 Tom's empty-nest plans and aching knee 25:43 Raiders jokes and the black-painted stadium Learn more about your ad choices.

If something promises higher returns, it comes with higher risk — even if that risk isn't easy to see. And if something promises to protect your downside, it's usually charging you for it through fees, limited upside, or long-term lockups. Today's headline from Ben Henry-Moreland fits that idea perfectly. "Why 'Downside Protection' ETFs Don't Protect Portfolios As Well As A Stock-Bond Mix (In The Long Term)".  After that, I'll answer a listener question about taxes & avoiding underpayment penalties from a surprise inheritance. Should they make an extra quarterly payment to the IRS to avoid penalties, or is there a smarter way to handle it? I'll explain how the safe-harbor rules work, and why a simple IRA-withholding trick can sometimes do the same job even better.  Resource: Article by Ben Henry-Moreland on Kitces.com: Why "Downside Protection" ETFs Don't Protect Portfolios As Well As A Stock-Bond Mix (In The Long Term) Connect with Benjamin Brandt Get the Retire-Ready Toolkit: http://retirementstartstodayradio.com Subscribe to the newsletter: https://retirementstartstodayradio.com/newsletter Work with Benjamin: https://retirementstartstoday.com/start Follow Retirement Starts Today in:Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, Pocket Casts, Amazon Music, or iHeart Get the book!Retirement Starts Today: Your Non-financial Guide to an Even Better Retirement

 Heute gibt es gleich zwei Themen in einem Podcast: Zum einen möchte ich über einen Megatrend sprechen, der zwar nicht völlig unbekannt ist – auch wenn ein Titel wie „Der unbekannte Megatrend“ auf YouTube sicher gut klingen würde –, aber tatsächlich gerade dabei ist, noch viel, viel größer zu werden. Dabei geht es nicht um Künstliche Intelligenz an sich, auch wenn sich dieser Trend gerade dort am schnellsten entwickelt. Doch er betrifft weit mehr als nur KI. Zum anderen möchte ich auf Chinas aktuellen Fünfjahresplan eingehen: Welche Ziele verfolgt Peking? In welche Richtung entwickelt sich das Land in den kommenden fünf Jahren? Und natürlich – wie können Anleger von dieser Entwicklung profitieren.

She also co-authored the book Trend Following with Managed Futures: The Search for Crisis Alpha. In today's episode, Meb and Katy discuss the tough year for managed futures strategies, which have experienced the 2nd largest drawdown in the last quarter century. Katy walks through the history of drawdowns and recoveries since 2000, explaining investors who have been patient in the past have been rewarded when the strategy recovers. She emphasizes managed futures' ability to serve as a diversifier to stocks, revisits her research on crisis alpha, and touches on the rise of managed futures ETFs as a way for investors to get exposure to this asset class.

Seit 55 Jahren ist Heiko Thieme auf dem globalen Parkett zu Hause. Gerade erst ist er 82 geworden und als Finanz-Influencer super erfolgreich auf Instagram. Sein aktuelles Buch „Erfolgreich zeitlos investieren" ist ein Bestseller. Wozu rät der Experte zurzeit? „Man sollte ETFs als Basis mit der Hälfte des Kapitals haben - über die Jahre hier regelmäßig investieren. Zweitens: Einzelwerte sind als Beimischung interessant. Und dann natürlich Wertbeständiges wie Edelmetalle Gold und Silber. Der Wert von Bitcoin ist für mich übrigens null", sagt Heiko Thieme. Der Experte vom Heiko Thieme Club weiter: „Politische Börsen haben kurze Beine. Aber wir sehen zurzeit eine Situation, die ich mir nie hätte vorstellen können. Völkermord im Nahen Osten, der widerrechtliche Angriff auf die Ukraine. Die Abschaffung der Demokratie in den USA. Deswegen sage ich TRT - Toleranz, Respekt und Transparenz. Damit könnten wir eine bessere Welt schaffen!"

Market Recap: Market Decline and In-Depth Analysis of Financial Trends In this episode of Dividend Cafe, Brian Szytel provides a market recap for October 30th, detailing a downturn with the Dow closing down 109 points, the S&P down 1%, and the Nasdaq down 1.5%.

In this special Investing 101 episode, the Rational Reminder hosts—Ben Felix, Dan Bortolotti, and Ben Wilson—team up to revisit the fundamental concepts that every investor should understand before diving deep into portfolio construction or market theory. Drawing from Ben's original "Investing 101" presentation and years of client experience, the trio lay out why investing matters, how inflation shapes your future, what stocks and bonds really represent, and why a disciplined, evidence-based approach beats prediction and luck every time. They unpack core ideas like financial independence, risk versus volatility, global diversification, and market efficiency, then connect them to practical tools like ETFs and Vanguard's asset allocation funds. Key Points From This Episode: (0:00:24) Why this episode revisits "Investing 101"—inspired by a listener still unsure how to begin. (0:05:03) Why investing matters: inflation erodes purchasing power, investing fights back. (0:06:33) The math of compounding: how a 7% return versus 2% changes your retirement entirely. (0:10:57) Saving early and often: habit formation beats late-life catch-up. (0:11:53) The trade-off between saving more and taking more investment risk. (0:14:04) Utility theory and the psychology of saving when young. (0:16:39) Marginal utility: when more money no longer adds happiness or purpose. (0:20:47) Stocks and bonds explained: ownership versus lending and the role of each. (0:23:11) The Japan story: a cautionary tale about chasing past winners. (0:26:49) Narrative investing: why investors love stories and get burned by them. (0:30:19) Market capitalization weighting—how global prices tell you what to own. (0:33:42) The stock market is not the economy: why news headlines mislead investors. (0:37:14) The power of diversification: why most individual stocks fail—and a few drive all returns. (0:41:56) Bonds, volatility, and inflation risk—why "safe" assets aren't risk-free. (0:44:41) Building your mix: matching volatility tolerance with long-term goals. (0:45:10) The behavioral challenge: risk is only useful if you can stay invested. (0:48:08) Active management as gambling: adding unrewarded noise to your portfolio. (0:51:43) The paradox of skill: why markets punish even brilliant active managers. (0:55:51) Efficient markets and Eugene Fama: the evidence that prices already reflect all information. (1:00:20) How small fees compound into big losses over decades. (1:03:07) The behavioral hurdle of indexing: trusting a system with "no one at the wheel."

Don and Tom open with an honest reflection on market déjà vu—how today's investing climate echoes the speculative excesses of 1929 and 2008. Citing Andrew Ross Sorkin's new book 1929: Inside the Greatest Crash in Wall Street History, they discuss the modern “financialization” wave: private equity, venture capital, crypto, and private credit being repackaged for retail investors and even 401(k)s, often under looser regulation. They warn listeners about “mark to make-believe” valuations and Wall Street's relentless drive to sell complexity to the masses. The conversation moves from cautionary history (leveraged trusts of 1929, margin loans, and subprime mortgages) to present-day parallels like Bitcoin ETFs and private-market tokens. The takeaway: avoid opaque, speculative products; stick with transparent, low-cost diversification. In the Q&A, they answer listener questions about simplifying global portfolios with VT vs. VTI/VXUS, and about selling or donating concentrated stock positions from employee plans. 0:04 Opening disclaimers and acknowledgment that the episode isn't meant to scare investors 1:18 Historical parallels—1929, 1987, 2008—and the feeling of “market déjà vu” 2:10 Introducing Andrew Ross Sorkin's new book 1929 and his NYT column on modern speculation 3:20 Financialization and the loosening of investor protections in the 2020s 4:33 Wall Street's constant invention of confusing products that favor sellers 4:58 Robinhood's Vlad Tenev and the illusion of democratizing risk 6:12 Lowering the barriers to private markets and what that means for investors 7:26 Echoes of 1929: leveraged ETFs, margin-like structures, and “Russian-doll” debt 8:29 The perils of leverage and speed of modern market declines 9:02 Private-market tokens and the “mark-to-make-believe” problem 10:25 Overvaluation, lack of liquidity, and Wall Street's interest in 401(k) assets 11:41 Historical leverage shifts—from banks to private credit 12:58 Why trusting financial “authorities” can be dangerous 13:32 Emotional honesty: people lie, and investors must self-protect 14:42 Jealousy, lottery-thinking, and envy as behavioral pitfalls 15:36 Investing as elimination—avoid what's complex, costly, or confusing 16:48 Listener Q&A: two-fund simplicity (VT + BND) vs. multi-ETF tinkering 18:38 The temptation to overweight U.S. equities 20:00 Contrarian case for international exposure (VXUS) 21:15 ESPP stock cleanup: when to sell concentrated holdings 22:44 Charitable giving of appreciated stock for tax efficiency Learn more about your ad choices.

Bitcoin dropped following renewed trade tensions after former President Trump's tariff announcement, as markets weigh the broader impact on global risk assets. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve's rate cuts and calls to pause quantitative tightening have sparked debate about monetary stability and crypto market direction. On the adoption front, Visa and Western Union expanded their stablecoin initiatives, Fidelity updated its Solana ETF filing, and Mastercard acquired Zero Hash to strengthen its blockchain infrastructure. With ConsenSys reportedly eyeing an IPO and new crypto ETFs launching despite the SEC shutdown, institutional momentum continues to build even as Bitcoin faces renewed volatility.

What if we stopped investing like bystanders and started investing like owners and “neighbors” in the story of our finances?When you invest like an owner, our portfolios can reflect faithful stewardship and create real-world impact. Robin John joins us today to share practical ways to move from passive investing to purposeful ownership.Robin John is co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at Eventide Asset Management, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. He's also the author of the book, The Good Investor: How Your Work Can Confront Injustice, Love Your Neighbor, and Bring Healing to the World.Investing vs. SpeculatingMany people confuse investing with speculating. Speculating—like day trading—is often no different than gambling. It's focused on short-term gains, trying to predict what the market will do tomorrow. But investing is about ownership. When you buy a stock, you're buying a piece of a company. You become a co-owner.That means your money is participating in real work—serving customers, employing people, and creating products that impact lives. As Christians, we should invest in companies we believe are doing good for the world, not just generating profits.Speculation is reactive and anxious. Investing, when done faithfully, allows us to rest in the knowledge that our capital is working toward purposes aligned with God's design for flourishing.The Responsibility of OwnershipOwnership changes everything. It confers ethical responsibility.If you owned a neighborhood store, you'd care deeply about how it serves your community, treats employees, and impacts the environment. In the same way, being a shareholder means you share in both the profits and the moral implications of what that company does.That's why Eventide Asset Management believes that Christians must think like owners, not traders. Ownership means engaging thoughtfully with the companies we invest in—voting proxies, engaging in dialogue with management, and ensuring that our capital is stewarded with integrity. Our investing isn't just about earning; it's about embodying our faith in the marketplace.Why Passive Investing Deserves a Closer LookIn recent years, many investors have turned to index funds or “passive” strategies. While these offer simplicity and diversification, I believe we should pause and ask: What are we actually owning?As Christians, we can't do anything passively—not even investing. Romans 12:2 calls us to avoid conforming to the patterns of this world, to renew our minds, and to discern what is good. That means we can't blindly invest in every company just because it's part of a market index.Do we really want to profit from industries like pornography, abortion, gambling, or tobacco? Our calling is to pursue good profits—profits that come from serving others and honoring God.To meet that need, Eventide has created systematic ETFs—investment funds that provide broad market exposure while intentionally excluding harmful industries. They're designed for believers who want to participate in the market without compromising biblical conviction.The Neighbor Map: Loving People Through InvestingIn his book, The Good Investor, Robin shares something he calls the Neighbor Map—a framework that helps us see all the “neighbors” affected by a business.God's command to “love your neighbor as yourself” (Leviticus 19) isn't abstract. It applies to the business world. At Eventide, they have identified six key neighbors every company should serve:Customers – Are the company's products truly good for those who use them?Employees – Are they treated with dignity, fairness, and care?Suppliers – Are business relationships ethical and respectful?Communities – Does the company create meaningful jobs and contribute positively to local life?The Environment – Is creation being stewarded well? Caring for creation is one of the most direct ways to love the poor, because it's the poor who suffer most from pollution and neglect.Society – Is the company contributing to the flourishing of the broader culture?Faithful investing isn't only about avoiding harm—it's also about embracing good. When we invest in companies that love their neighbors well, we participate in God's ongoing work of restoration.As investors, we're not distant spectators. We're partners. At Eventide, they engage directly with the companies we invest in—raising concerns, asking hard questions, and encouraging leadership to act with wisdom and compassion.Their goal isn't confrontation—it's collaboration. Whether it's addressing supply chain ethics, employee safety, or corporate philanthropy, we approach these conversations as co-owners who want to see good companies become even better.Clarity for Every Christian InvestorMany believers are unaware of what their money supports. That's why the team at Eventide created GoodInvestor.com—a free tool that allows you to screen your portfolio and see exactly what you're investing in. You can also connect with advisors who understand faith-based investing and can help you align your portfolio with your convictions.We hope that Christians everywhere would invest with joy, clarity, and confidence—knowing that their capital is serving God's purposes in the world. When we invest, we're not just moving money—we're shaping the world. Every dollar we deploy carries moral and spiritual weight.Our prayer is that more believers would see investing as a form of worship—a way to love God and neighbor through the stewardship of capital. Together, we can build a world that rejoices, where profits are good, people are valued, and creation is honored.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:Back in 2010, my parents set up a life estate warranty deed for their home, adding my siblings and me to the deed. My mom passed away eight years ago, and my dad passed in December 2024. We're preparing to sell the house now, but I keep hearing that we need to use a “life expectancy table” to calculate the home's value for capital gains or losses. Can you explain how that works and what steps we'll need to take for the taxes?I've saved up three months' worth of income—about $2,300 in total—and I still owe around $500 on a HELOC and another $500 on a credit card with interest rates of about 7% and 8.9%. My question is: Should I treat my savings separately from my three-month emergency fund? For example, if something unexpected happens—like a car repair—I don't want to touch my emergency fund. Is there a certain percentage or guideline for how much should be in an emergency fund versus regular savings?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)The Good Investor: How Your Work Can Confront Injustice, Love Your Neighbor, and Bring Healing to the World by Robin C.

As investors seek alternatives to the stock market, as ETFs make it harder to outpace the market, as awareness for private investments increases, allocations are increasing to non-traditional assets. Over the past decade, and even more so recently, investors have invested more money into privately held Real Estate, Private Credit, and Private Equity. With the right investment strategies, these vehicles offer predictable cash flow with conservative risk. Brad Johnson, Founder and Managing Partner of Evergreen Capital, helps clients preserve and grow capital by investing in proven, cash-flowing alternative investments.

The fastest way to look “successful” is to finance the image. The fastest way to get free is to let the math lead. We sit down with Daniel Alonzo—author, coach, and host of Wealth on the Beach—to unpack why indexed universal life policies keep trending online despite their hidden costs, confusing mechanics, and disappointing outcomes. Daniel's take is direct: buy pure protection with term, then invest the difference in simple, diversified vehicles you actually understand.We dig into the real numbers behind cash value life insurance: rising internal costs, long surrender periods, and how policies can quietly cannibalize their own cash value over time. Daniel dismantles the familiar pitch—tax-free loans, “upside without downside,” Rockefeller and Disney stories—and explains why those analogies don't fit most families. He lays out practical alternatives: maximize affordable coverage to protect income and debts, then use low-cost index funds or broad-market ETFs to let compounding do the heavy lifting. We share client cases that reveal the pitfalls of opaque fees and what better looks like when you separate insurance from investing.Beyond products, this is a blueprint for freedom. Daniel defines success as control of your time—ownership you can pass on, systems that pay without your constant presence, and the flexibility to choose work because you love it. We talk legacy, transferable businesses, and the mindset shift from “optics” to outcomes. If you're already in an IUL, Daniel offers a calm, step-by-step path to evaluate, compare, and correct with numbers, not noise.If you're ready to trade glossy marketing for clear math, hit play.

Don and Tom go after one of their favorite targets: bad actors in the financial industry—especially those who flee regulation by becoming insurance salesmen. They break down a shocking new study showing that 98% of brokers kicked out by FINRA stay in the business by selling annuities and other insurance products, often with little oversight. The duo compares this behavior to “cockroaches,” slamming state insurance commissions for weak enforcement and minimal fines. Later, they tackle Washington State's ballot measure SR 8201 on investing long-term care funds, answer listener questions about 529 plans versus UTMAs, discuss 457 plan costs and fund choices, and close with a fun chat about Halloween chaos and coffee and cocoa prices. 0:04 Opening rant on misbehavior in the financial industry and the perils of “bad advisors.” 1:03 How fired brokers reappear as insurance salesmen—98% stay in the industry. 3:10 Why state insurance oversight is toothless and how low the penalties really are. 5:14 Insurance firms masquerading as planners—why fiduciary-only advisors matter. 6:03 The study's “cockroach” comparison and why the problem persists. 7:37 How to vet your advisor using FINRA's BrokerCheck and state insurance lookups. 9:16 State vs. federal regulation—why the insurance lobby spent $200 million to avoid SEC oversight. 11:08 Caller Beth from Washington asks about SR 8201—investing long-term care funds in stocks. 13:27 The fiduciary perspective: diversification and realistic expectations. 15:23 Caller Gene from Puyallup on 529 plans vs. UTMAs for grandkids. 17:55 Tax control, gift rules, and the best state 529 options. 19:20 Holiday gifting and a little banter about who's on Tom's “nice list.” 20:22 Halloween costumes, tourists, and Celebration, Florida trick-or-treat madness. 23:28 Behind the scenes: Don reveals the entire “Talking Real Money” production staff (himself). 24:32 Podcast email list plug—how to subscribe at TalkingRealMoney.com. 25:35 Explaining podcasts for the AM radio crowd—how to find Talking Real Money on your phone. 27:30 Listener question from Matthew in Illinois about 457 plan costs and hidden fees. 30:38 The truth about 457s, penalties, and why Schwab's low-cost ETFs may be smarter. 32:34 Caller Rob from Bellevue discusses attending RetireMeet and noticing the Apella building. 33:18 Wrapping with cocoa and coffee futures—good news for chocolate, bad for espresso lovers. 37:49 Don plugs Litreading's Scary Story Season before switching to Christmas stories.

This episode of Crypto Town Hall covers the latest drama in the crypto policy world, focusing on CZ (Changpeng Zhao) suing Senator Elizabeth Warren for alleged libel over her public statements relating to criminal charges and Trump's pardon. The panel explores the implications of Warren's comments, the potential legal pushback, and the broader impact of anti-crypto sentiment among US policymakers. The discussion pivots to challenges facing US crypto regulation, updates on potential market structure legislation, and the evolving landscape of ETFs and market liquidity. The show then analyzes the state of the crypto and equity markets post-FOMC, including strategies for investing and the changing nature of bull markets, highlighting the dominance of Bitcoin as a core investment thesis.

Bitcoin is gearing up for a volatile week as $31 billion in options near expiration, while the Federal Reserve signals two potential rate cuts in 2025 — a move that could reshape global markets. At the same time, new crypto ETFs continue to launch despite the SEC shutdown, Visa expands its stablecoin settlement support across four blockchains, and Western Union enters the arena with its own USDpt stablecoin. With institutions doubling down and regulators still at odds, the crypto market may be setting up for its next big shift.

Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.Covered calls sound like a clever way to make extra income from stocks you already own—but once you really break it down, things aren't quite as rosy as they seem. In this video, we dig into the truth behind covered call funds and why they've become so popular with everyday investors, even though the math often tells a different story.Following along with Ben Felix's “Was I Wrong About Covered Calls?”, we take a closer look at how these strategies actually work and why the promise of “steady income” can come with a hidden cost. Covered call ETFs have been sold as safe, income-producing investments, but they often end up capping your upside potential and eating into long-term returns.Here's what we cover in the video:✅ What a covered call really is, and why it's basically the same risk as a short put.✅ How covered call ETFs consistently trail their underlying stocks by 2–4% a year.✅ Why those “juicy” yields aren't free money—they usually come from your own capital.✅ The problem with capping your upside while staying exposed to all the downside.✅ How real traders manage risk and create their own income without gimmicks.We walk through real examples, using actual numbers, so you can see how these funds perform in the real world. On paper, they look great—steady income, reduced volatility, and that comforting monthly payout. But when you zoom out, most of these funds end up losing ground to plain old index ETFs. The short-term income feels good, but it comes at the expense of long-term growth.It's easy to see why investors fall for the sales pitch. The idea of generating “passive income” without taking on extra risk sounds perfect. But the reality is that covered call strategies don't protect you from losses—they just limit how much you can win. Many of these funds look like they're paying you a big yield, when in fact, the stock price is quietly falling behind.The smarter move? Build your own income stream the right way. Use dividends, take profits strategically, and manage your risk like a professional. Covered calls might sound exciting, but real investing success comes from having a plan, sticking to it, and letting your portfolio do the heavy lifting over time.This isn't about chasing what's popular—it's about understanding what actually works. If you've ever been curious about covered call ETFs, or wondered whether they're really worth it, this breakdown will give you the straight answer.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd.

Crypto News: Citi bank partners with Coinbase to offer crypto to its clients and using stablecoins for payments. IBM's ‘Digital Asset Haven' aims to turn crypto into corporate infrastructure. Multiple altcoin ETFs will launch tomorrow which includes Solana, HBAR, and Litecoin.Brought to you by

This episode of Crypto Town Hall centers around current events and big moves in the crypto markets, particularly focusing on the upcoming Fed rate cut, the launch of new digital asset ETFs (including Solana, HBAR, and Litecoin staked ETFs), major product launches by companies like IBM, and ongoing developments in the stablecoin and DeFi ecosystems. The conversation weaves through technical analysis, the impact of ETFs on various crypto assets (and why some launches generate less excitement), institutional adoption, and the evolution of crypto market maturity. A featured guest, Matan—the founder and CEO of TFi—joins in the second half to discuss his DeFi superapp and the project's upcoming advances and philosophy. The aim is to better understand both immediate price movements and the longer-term direction of crypto as it goes mainstream, with a practical look at utility, infrastructure, and adoption.

The Solana ETF is officially launching — and XRP could be next! In this eisode, we'll break down how this game-changing move could ignite the next massive altcoin rally, and what it means for the future of crypto ETFs.

In this episode of Excess Returns, we speak with Nancy Davis, founder and CIO of Quadratic Capital Management and the mind behind the innovative fixed income ETFs IVOL and BNDD. Nancy shares her insights on how investors are unknowingly short volatility in their portfolios, the role of options and convexity in fixed income, and how her ETFs seek to hedge against inflation, interest rate shifts, and volatility in a unique way. We also discuss the bond market, inflation dynamics, and how investors can better understand and manage risks that are often hidden inside traditional portfolios.Main topics covered• How Nancy's experience trading volatility at Goldman Sachs shaped her investment philosophy• Why most investors are short volatility without realizing it• Understanding convexity and prepayment risk in bond portfolios• The rise of passive investing and its impact on interest rate volatility• How IVOL provides exposure to interest rate volatility and inflation protection• The problem with relying on CPI as a measure of inflation• Why gold is an inconsistent inflation hedge• The yield curve as an alternative indicator of inflation expectations• Why interest rate volatility is historically cheap today• The relationship between bond volatility and stock volatility• How to think about IVOL and BNDD in a diversified portfolio• The long-term risks of shorting volatility and selling options for “income”Timestamps00:00 Introduction and overview of option selling in markets02:15 Nancy's background at Goldman Sachs and lessons on volatility05:00 Understanding convexity and its importance in fixed income06:30 Why investors are short interest rate volatility without knowing it10:25 The hidden risks inside the bond market and the role of mortgages11:00 Why most investors are short inflation in real life13:00 Conventional vs. alternative inflation hedges17:00 Why CPI is an imperfect inflation measure18:00 How the yield curve reflects inflation expectations21:00 Historical yield curve data and current inversion25:00 Interest rate volatility after Silicon Valley Bank26:30 Relationship between bond and stock volatility28:00 Using IVOL in a portfolio31:00 Discussion on the national debt and interest rate risk32:00 BNDD ETF and how it complements IVOL33:30 Why inflation-protected bonds are underused in the US36:00 Closing questions – what Nancy believes most peers disagree with37:00 Why selling options is not income and the risks investors overlook

Matt Bartolini discusses the strength of the 3Q earnings season so far and examines consumer health and inflation. He expects a rate cut from the Fed tomorrow but thinks the guidance will be murky. Turning to ETFs, he covers record inflows, anticipating up to $1.4 trillion by the end of the year. He notes that cyclicals and tech have dominated these inflows, calling it “very risk-on optimism.”======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
