George W. Bush And The 2007-08 Financial Crisis And A Brief History of America's Economic DevelopmentInterview with Dan OstranderIn this My Life Now episode, Dallas interviews author Dan Ostrander.About the Book:Foreword by President George Bush. This book is about political pragmatism and presidential leadership. It demonstrates from an historical perspective that political pragmatism, in many cases, is an essential ingredient of effective Presidential leadership. Something in politics that some politicians do not understand, but Presidents Bush, Ford, FDR, Lincoln, and Jefferson did, is that a President is elected to lead the country in the direction which is best for the American people. There are times when historical events force a President to lead the country in a direction supported neither by the general public nor his party and is neither in his nor his party's immediate political interest. But as President, Abraham Lincoln believed he would serve his party best by serving his country first. In order to prepare the reader to evaluate the leadership of Bush in the 1990 Budget Agreement, and Presidential leadership in general, the first chapter of the book discusses the sources of Presidential power. In doing so, the changes in the role of the office of the Presidency, as dictated by history, are viewed through the actions of earlier Presidents. The following chapters demonstrate great acts of political courage by Presidents who led the country in a direction that was not popularly supported during their Presidency. The final two chapters show how the Bush Administration established the economic structure which has led to the longest economic expansion of our history. Bush has never been an advocate of high taxes, but in order for the American people to have the opportunity to use their talents and entrepreneurship to work their magic on the economy there are times when courageous leadership and personal sacrifices have to be made. In 1990 President Bush made that sacrifice. Bush had the vision to see the direction the country must move and had the personal character and integrity to lead his party and the country in that direction.The mark of a great President and a great party is to provide superior and principled leadership and ideas; it is not merely to win an election. Now, as a result of the economic recovery initiated by the 1990 Budget Agreement, Bush has demonstrated that Lincoln was right. A President does serve his party best by serving his country first.Buy Your Copy of the Book: https://a.co/d/cTRIvmCThank you for listening to and supporting the My Life Now podcast show.

Revisiting U.S.-China Relations: Manufacturing, Tariffs, and Opportunities with John LingWelcome to another episode of the Asia Business Podcast. This week, we're joined by John Ling, Managing Director at LinVest Consulting. John has a wealth of experience in facilitating inbound foreign investment into the United States, particularly from China. As the dynamics between the US and China continue to evolve, John provides an essential perspective on the current state of manufacturing investments and the impact of tariffs on these decisions.Connect with JohnVisit LinVestA Glimpse into the US-China Tariff LandscapeIn light of ongoing trade tensions, tariffs have become a significant factor influencing Chinese companies' decisions to manufacture in the US. John explains that while tariffs are a considerable consideration, they are by no means the sole driver for Chinese investments. Other critical factors include supply chain stability and the state of overcapacity within China. This comprehensive approach has led many Chinese companies to view the US as a lucrative market opportunity.Historical Context and Current TrendsJohn delves into the history of Chinese investments in the US, reminiscing about the pioneers who dared to establish manufacturing operations in America decades ago. This historical context provides a backdrop to current trends, where meaningful Chinese investment projects are increasingly commonplace. Despite political headwinds and the complexities of US tariff policies, many projects have thrived, demonstrating the long-term profitability of these ventures.Challenges and Strategic AdaptationsDespite the challenges posed by tariffs, especially those reaching as high as 145% on certain products, Chinese companies have found innovative ways to adapt. For instance, some have capitalized on their operational excellence and responsiveness to customer demands. This adaptability has allowed them to maintain competitiveness in the US market, often outpacing domestic peers in terms of quality and pricing.Joint Ventures and Local PartnershipsAn interesting development noted by John is the growing openness among Chinese investors to consider joint ventures and partnerships in the US. This trend mirrors the historical path taken by US companies entering China and is seen as a strategic move to mitigate risks and foster cooperation. Such collaborations hold promise in bridging cultural and operational gaps, benefiting both parties involved.Policy and Incentive LandscapeWhile some may have anticipated increased incentives from state and federal governments, the reality is more nuanced. John emphasizes that decisions to invest should not rely solely on incentives but rather on broader strategic considerations. Nonetheless, a fair and stable political environment remains crucial for planning significant capital investments.Forecasting Future DevelopmentsLooking forward, John remains optimistic about the potential for improved US-China relations, driven by mutual benefits and strategic interests. He speculates that as governments engage in negotiations, more opportunities for Chinese manufacturing projects in the US may arise. This could mirror the path taken by Japanese companies decades ago, fostering better understanding and trust between nations.Conclusion and Contact InformationIn closing, the conversation with John Ling sheds light on the intricate interplay of tariffs, strategic adaptation, and international partnerships shaping the manufacturing landscape between China and the US. For those interested in further insights or potential collaborations, John is accessible via LinkedIn or through LinVest LLC. Timestamps00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome00:54 Impact of Tariffs on Chinese Manufacturing in the US01:16 Historical Context and Evolution of Chinese Investment03:48 Current Challenges and Strategic Adjustments07:44 Success Stories and Future Outlook16:13 Government Policies and Incentives25:11 Cultural and Operational Insights37:24 Conclusion and Contact Information  ProducerJacob ThomasFollow UsLinkedInApple Podcasts

Vince Lanci returns to the podcast to follow up on Episode #213's discussion with Caitlin Long.  Vince lays out his argument for why the GENIUS Bill, stablecoins, and crypto will usher in a new era of financial terms enforced this time by the US vs. City of London.  It's the flipside to the ideas floated by Ms. Long.   In short, dollar bulls and bears may in fact be right... but for reasons you haven't truly thought of yet.Show Notes:Ep#213 Caitlin Long and the Financial Crisis that Wasn'tVBL's GoldFixVince on XTom on XGGNG Patreon

Mark Vitner and Susan Spence discuss May ISM Manufacturing PMI missing expectations. “It's the lowest level we've seen since the financial crisis,” says Mark, but sees some resilience in manufacturing. “The uncertainty around the tariff whiplash is not good for business,” emphasizes Susan, and it would take months to turn around even if trade issues were resolved tomorrow. “The inventories for customers…is low,” she adds.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Sophie Bertin. You know that feeling when everything looks good on paper, a great job, supportive colleagues, a solid paycheck, but something inside keeps whispering, this isn't it! That was Sophie. She had a comfortable life, but comfort wasn't enough. It took a spark - an unexpected stat about entrepreneurs from a business school dean when Sophie was at a less-than-satisfying moment in her career - for her to realize: “Why am I in the 50% who haven't taken the leap?” That catalyzed her turning point. Sophie Bertin has a varied career path, from strategic consultancy, to banking operations, to the European Commission and now turned entrepreneur. She recently founded Serapy with the aim of improving corporate compliance training through the combination of simulations, gamification, role play and online tools. Serapy uses the latest educational theories to provide trainings with increased retention rate, and combines that with AI tools to enhance the learning process. Serapy is currently present in Switzerland, Bulgaria, Portugal, France and the UAE. Serapy has been accepted in the incubation program of the Unicorn Factory Lisbon and of Station F in Paris. In addition to Serapy, Sophie has her own consultancy (Parnima Consulting) since 2016, where she works with top legal and regulatory firms, consultancy firms and financial clients on EU Regulations in the area of Financial Services, Foreign Subsidies and State Aid. She also serves as independent board member of Eastnets, a leading provider of AML, SWIFT and payments solutions. She sits on the Remuneration, Nomination and Governance Committee. Before becoming entrepreneur, Sophie was Group Head of Corporate Development and Managing Director of SIX Group (in Switzerland), in charge of strategy development, innovation and regulatory affairs. During the Financial Crisis, she served as Head of Unit at the Directorate General for Competition within the European Commission. There, she was responsible for the review and approval of the State aid provided by Member States to the financial services (mostly banks) during the financial crisis of 2008-2014. Prior to her role with the European Commission, Sophie held senior positions within SWIFT, where she was globally in charge of Asset Servicing; with The Bank of New York Mellon; and worked with the top consultancies McKinsey and later Bain &Co. She started her career path as IT and database programmer, which is very helpful now with the latest AI tools she uses in her start-up. She started her studies in Vienna, graduated from the Ecole Supérieure de Commerce de Paris, holds an MBA from INSEAD and a post-graduate diploma in EU Competition Law from King's College. She holds also a diploma from the Swiss Board Institute. She is member of the Executive Committee of the INSEAD Alumni organization, and she is also the founder and president of the global INSEAD Women in Business Club. Recently, she finished an advanced AI Mastery class and won the award for the best AI Application Builder. She is promoting and advocating for AI literacy among women and through the INSEAD Women in Business Club organizes events for Women in AI.

Dr. Edward Altman, creator of the Z-Score bankruptcy prediction model and Max L. Heine Professor of Finance, Emeritus at the Stern School of Business, joins Julia La Roche on episode 257 for an in-depth discussion on where we are in the credit cycle. Sponsor: This episode is brought to you by Monetary Metals. https://monetary-metals.com/julia In this episode, Ed Altman discusses the current state of the credit cycle. Dr. Altman explains that 2024 saw more Chapter 11 bankruptcy filings than any year since the Great Financial Crisis, with over 7,000 filings. He analyzes why the economy has moved from a "benign" phase to a "stress" phase in his credit cycle framework, highlighting the dichotomy between high-yield bonds and bank loans, the impact of floating-rate debt, and the growth of private credit markets. Dr. Altman also examines distressed exchanges as alternatives to bankruptcy, government debt concerns, and why credit cycles typically precede business cycles as leading economic indicators.Dr. Altman is a renowned professor and researcher for his bankruptcy prediction and credit risk analysis work. Dr. Altman earned his MBA and Ph.D. in Finance from the University of California, Los Angeles. He has been with NYU Stern School of Business since 1967. He is most famous for developing the Z-Score formula in the late 1960s. The Z-Score is a financial model that uses historical data to predict a company's likelihood of bankruptcy. This formula is widely used by investors, financial analysts, and auditors as a tool for predicting corporate defaults and an aid in credit risk management. Dr. Altman has published numerous books and articles on the topics of bankruptcy, corporate distress analysis, corporate financial restructuring, and credit risk. His work has had a significant impact on both academic finance and practical investment analysis.

In this episode of America's Founding Series, Professor Nicholas Giordano tells the extraordinary but often overlooked story of Robert Morris & Haym Salomon: The Men Who Financed American Freedom.

From Salomon's imprisonment by the British to the desperate scramble for $20,000 that saved the Yorktown campaign, this episode reveals how their financial sacrifices helped secure American independence. Without Morris and Salomon, the Revolution may have collapsed before victory was ever possible. Professor Giordano reveals how these forgotten patriots risked everything for liberty and why their names deserve a place alongside America's most celebrated founders. Episode Highlights: The dramatic moment when George Washington demanded, “Send for Haym Salomon,” to save the Yorktown campaign. How Robert Morris created a financial system from scratch to sustain the Revolution and died in debt for it. The little-known story of Salomon's arrest, espionage, and tireless fundraising efforts under British surveillance.

What if the market chaos we're experiencing today isn't as unprecedented as it seems? In this episode, we unpack what today's economic volatility has in common with the 2008 financial crisis and how smart investors can adapt. Host Jeannette Friedrich is joined by Jeff Traister, Managing Director of Systematic Portfolio Investing at Guggenheim Partners. With decades of experience spanning crisis-era mortgage trading to building systematic strategies for a $120B portfolio, Jeff offers rare insight into how to navigate uncertainty, manage risk, and stay grounded in disciplined strategy.  Key takeaways from the episode: - The most resilient investment strategies are systematic but also adaptive, continuously evolving based on incoming data rather than rigid models - Human behavior is often the biggest challenge to disciplined investing, especially during high volatility - Liquidity risk is often invisible until it's too late, and many investors fail to account for it properly - Lessons from the 2008 crisis remain critical today, particularly around risk modeling and the importance of conducting in-house analysis - Extreme market behavior today, such as dislocation in Treasury markets, may require Federal Reserve intervention similar to 2008 - Long-term investment strategies should be designed to weather political uncertainty, tariffs, and recession risk - Private real estate stands out in today's environment for its stability, insulation from daily volatility, and asset-specific fundamentals - Emotional discipline and diversified thinking are essential, and investors should never rely solely on credentials or single sources of information Contact Jeff https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeff-traister-los-angeles/  Timestamps 00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction 01:59 Navigating Investment Strategies in Uncertain Times 04:59 Lessons from the 2008 Financial Crisis 19:55 The Fed's Potential Actions and Market Impact 21:35 Comparing 2008 Crisis to Current Market Conditions 24:06 Personal Insights and Investment Strategies Are you REady2Scale Your Multifamily Investments?

However, Dalio also told Meet The Press his main worry is that recession economy getting slammed by a crisis.

Our Head of Corporate Credit Research analyzes the market response to President Trump's tariff reversal and explains why rallies do not always indicate an improvement in the overall environment.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley. ---- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, head of Corporate Credit Research at Morgan Stanley. Today I'm going to talk about the historic gains we saw this week in markets, and what they may or may not tell us. It's Friday April 11th at 2pm in London. Wednesday saw the S&P 500 gain 9.5 percent. It was the 10th best day for the U.S. equity market in the last century. Which raises a reasonable question: Is that a good thing? Do large one-day gains suggest further strength ahead – or something else? This is the type of Research question we love digging into. Pulling together the data, it's pretty straightforward to sort through those other banner days in stock market history going back to 1925. And what they show is notable. I'm now going to read to you when those large gains occurred, in order of the gains themselves. The best day in market history, March 15th 1933, when stocks soared over 16 per cent? It happened during the Great Depression. The 2nd best day, Oct 30th 1929. During the Great Depression. The 3rd best day – Great Depression. The fourth best – the first trading day after Germany invaded Poland in 1939 and World War 2 began. The 5th best day – Great Depression. The 6th Best – October 2008, during the Financial Crisis. The 7th Best – also during the Financial Crisis. The 8th best. The Great Depression again. The 9th best – The Great Depression. And 10th best? Well, that was Wednesday. We are in interesting company, to say the least. Incidentally, we stop here in the interest of brevity; this is a podcast known for being sharp and to the point. But if we kept moving further down the list, the next best 20 days in history all happen during either COVID, the 1987 Crash, a Recession, or a Depression. So why would that be? Why, factually, have some of the best days in market history occurred during some of the very worst of possible backdrops. In some cases, it really was a sign of a buying opportunity. As terrible as the Great Depression was – and as the grandson of a South Dakota farmer I heard the tales – stocks were very cheap at this time, and there were some very large rallies in 1932, 1933, or even 1929. During COVID, the gains on March 24th of 2020, which were associated with major stimulus, represented the major market low. But it can also be the case that during difficult environments, investors are cautious. And they are ultimately right to be cautious. But because of that fear, any good news – any spark of hope – can cause an outsized reaction. But it also sometimes doesn't change that overall challenging picture. And then reverses. Those two large rallies that happened in October of 2008 during the Global Financial Crisis, well they both happened around hopes of government and central bank support. And that temporarily lifted the market – but it didn't shift the overall picture. What does this mean for investors? On average, markets are roughly unchanged in the three months following some of these largest historical gains. But the range of what happens next is very wide. It is a sign, we think, that these are not normal times, and that the range of outcomes, unfortunately, has become larger. Thanks for listening. If you enjoy the show, leave us a review wherever you listen and share Thoughts on the Market with a friend or colleague today.

It's Wednesday! Sam and Emma are joined by Robert Weissman, co-president of the non-profit advocacy organization Public Citizen, which has filed 8 lawsuits against the Trump administration and says they have more coming. Later, Rohan Grey, Assistant Professor of Law at Willamette University, discusses his latest research on the Trump administration's attempt to seize direct political control over the core payments software of the Treasury's Bureau of the Fiscal Service, which handles spending for most of the federal government, to block funds to politically disfavored agencies and programs. First, they run through updates on the victory by liberal Susan Crawford in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, Democrats' growing margins in deep-red regions, Trump's tariff fears, the GOP's anger at proxy voting for new parents, Mike Waltz Gmail whoopsie, Senator Cory Booker's marathon filibuster, the closure of free measles vaccine clinics in Texas amid a breakout, Ed Martin nomination for D.C. U.S. Attorney, Tesla's tanking earnings, and the Senate GOP's budget reconciliation, before expanding on the beautiful revelations around the toxicity of Elon Musk in US politics as seen in the incredible leftward swing amid his intense campaigning for conservative Brad Schimel Wisconsin. Robert Weissman then joins, first previewing the typical work of Public Citizen including advocacy, litigation, and organizing on behalf of the public against corporations, touching on everything from trade and consumer financial protection to drug pricing and campaign finance laws. Weissman then unpacks Public Citizens tactical shift under Trump 2.0, walking through the various legal battles they have taken on against Trump's attempt to dismantle the federal U.S. government through executive reform, with a particular focus on their case to save the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau – an agency birthed from the 2008 Financial Crisis' overwhelming impact on consumers – also touching on their effort to protect USAID and the Department of Education. Robert, Sam, and Emma expand on these lawsuits' ultimate goal of preventing the full-scale deletion of these agencies, understanding that, even with success, the Trump Administration will constantly be searching for (and finding) new ways to obstruct any accountability or pushback from this project, and focusing instead on ensuring the potential of rebuilding under future leadership, before wrapping up by looking to the upcoming fights over Trump's insistence on using his executive power to fire any and everybody, and the role of “national emergencies” in bolstering executive power. Rohan Grey then joins, diving right into Elon Musk's outrageous (and obviously untrustworthy) agenda of digitizing America's fiscal regime, stepping back to walk through the process by which US fiscal policy operates, with said policy – be it spending, taxation, issuing debt, etc – originating in Congressional legislation, moving through the Office of Management and Budget under the President to manage the allocated spending over the allotted time, to the Treasury's instructions with the Federal Reserve as the ultimate entity in charge of the dollars. After expanding on the utter absurdity of Elon's plan – outside of if, perhaps, you wanted to completely rid the system of accountability or pushback – Rohan, Sam, and Emma parse through DOGE's opaque takeover of the Bureau of Financial Services amid their project to indiscriminately cut funds, including Elon setting up an obvious assault on Social Security, wrapping up by expanding on what a botched system shift for the federal payment systems would look like, and assessing a more realistic idea for bringing our systems into the modern era. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma listen to Wisconsin Justice Susan Crawford celebrate winning an election against tens of millions of Elon Musk's money, unpack Elon's very-related copium, and watch Fox try to justify the extensive negative impact Trump's tariffs will have on the American people. The MR Crew also touches on Cory Booker's marathon filibuster (and the tactics underneath it), admires Lauren Boebert's self-assured idiocy, and dissects the blatant inhumanity on display with the Trump Administration's justification for their indiscriminate renditioning of migrants – legal or not – to a Salvadoran gulag, plus, your IMs!

Why are senior researchers and former officials urging the Fed to create a hedge fund bailout? At first, this seems to be about the Treasury market and concerns tied to March 2020. It doesn't take too long, however, to see what's really going on here. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisBrookings Treasury market dysfunction and the role of the central bankhttps://www.brookings.edu/articles/treasury-market-dysfunction-and-the-role-of-the-central-bank/Bloomberg Fed Urged to Explore Hedge Fund Bailout Tool for Basis Tradehttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-27/fed-urged-to-mull-a-hedge-fund-bailout-facility-for-basis-tradesOFR Hedge Funds and the Treasury Cash-Futures Disconnect https://www.financialresearch.gov/working-papers/files/OFRwp-21-01-hedge-funds-and-the-treasury-cash-futures-disconnect.pdfFOMC Meeting Minutes March 15, 2020https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/files/fomcminutes20200315.pdfhttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

In President Donald Trump's recent joint address to Congress, he said, "To unshackle our economy, I have directed that for every one new regulation, ten old regulations must be eliminated." Elon Musk, whom Trump has assigned to execute this vision, has argued that it is time to get rid of all regulations, or as Musk said, “regulations, basically, should be default gone.”Joining Bethany and Luigi to discuss this intensified commitment to deregulation and laissez-faire capitalism is Sam Peltzman, perhaps the leading living expert on the economics of regulation. Peltzman is the Ralph and Dorothy Keller Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus of Economics at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business and director emeritus of the Stigler Center, which sponsors this podcast and is named after his mentor, Nobel-Prize laureate George Stigler. Together, the three of them chart a historical perspective on regulation, from Stigler's ideas of regulatory capture to the unintended consequences of deregulatory efforts over time to today's “chainsaw” approach to gutting federal agencies. To understand the costs and benefits of regulation, they discuss how federal agencies have recently intervened in markets, if the private sector could not have accomplished these interventions more efficiently, and if these interventions did more harm than good. Their case studies include the funding, testing, and rollout of the COVID-19 vaccine, the regulation of cryptocurrencies, the management of the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, and the role of the government in addressing climate change. In the process, they answer the trillion-dollar question: Are Trump's deregulation efforts actually efficient?Episode Notes:Revisit our recent episode with Federico Sturzenegger, the Argentinian Minister for State Transformation and DeregulationRead the op-ed Bethany mentions writing in the wake of the financial crisis: Who Wants a 30-Year Mortgage?At the end of the conversation with Peltzman, Luigi asks him about his recent academic papers tracing marriage and happiness.
