Send us Fan MailDoug Lane, Managing Director and Consumer Analyst at Water Tower Research, joins host Tim Gerdeman to walk through the May edition of the WTR Consumer Monthly. The conversation covers what the WTR Consumer Index is signaling about sector health, where earnings have held up better than feared but multiple contractions and record-low consumer sentiment readings are weighing on valuations, and how currency trends are creating a split picture for global consumer companies. The centerpiece is Doug's Fundamental Focus on Helen of Troy (NASDAQ: HELE), a case study in how deeply discounted stocks with credible restructuring plans can re-rate sharply when operational results begin to confirm the recovery thesis. Doug also walks through several other names in his coverage, including Culp Industries, Bassett Furniture, Miller Knoll, and 800 Flowers, where cost restructuring is advancing, and the gap between sentiment and fundamentals may be closing.

Commercial real estate debt is now one of the market's most avoided asset classes. Our Global Head of Fixed Income Research Andrew Sheets explains why there may be an opportunity to invest in those securities.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Andrew Sheets: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Global Head of Fixed Income Research at Morgan Stanley. Today, why commercial real estate debt could be overlooked and undervalued. It's Friday, May 29th at 2pm in London. Bond yields have risen this year, and it's attracting strong flows into fixed income markets. The problem is that all of that demand is narrowing the risk premium that one receives. Spreads on U.S. mortgage bonds are richer than 89 percent of observations over the last 20 years. Spreads on the U.S. high yield market, well, they're richer than 96 percent of the time. And spreads on U.S. investment grade, it's 99 percent. We live in a world where the risk premium on most bonds is very low versus history, but there are exceptions. One is debt backed by commercial mortgages or so-called CMBS. Spreads here, notably and unusually, are significantly higher than the long run average. It is a market that we like. Commercial property is largely comprised of lending against office buildings, apartments, retail complexes, and industrial sites like warehouses. The first three have faced major challenges over the last five years. Office values have slumped as investors feared more people working from home. Apartments have suffered from significant supply in building, conceived in a low-rate world as this has come online. And retail has faced long-run concern about the trend of more online shopping. And the rise of interest rates, well, that's loomed over everything. A building, in a lot of ways, is a lot like a bond, promising a dependable stream of rents over time. When an investor can get that stream of cash flows from the bond market, commercial property prices must adjust lower to remain competitive. These challenges are material, but they are also not new. Indeed, investors may recall that fears around commercial property peaked way back in early 2023 following significant rate hikes by the Federal Reserve. Back then, there were widespread fears that commercial property weakness would ricochet back and threaten the banking system. Three years later, those worst fears have not been realized. And while defaults and restructurings have happened, overall commercial property fundamentals are beginning to pick back up. Commercial property transaction volumes increased 27 percent in the U.S. in the first quarter relative to a year prior; and prices are rising, up about 5 percent over the same period. The amount of commercial real estate debt being originated is up about 40 percent over the last year – a sign that lenders are coming back. And the number of commercial deals that are becoming distressed and unable to pay their bills, they just saw their first quarterly decline since all of those problems in early 2023. Part of this recovery in the commercial real estate market may be explained by U.S. growth, which continues to be resilient, and some of it mirrors other cycles. When rates rose and commercial lending markets weakened, the construction of new properties really slowed down. It takes several years to build a building, and so it's only now that the impact of everything that was not built is starting to be felt. With less supply coming online, the value of existing property is better supported, especially relative to the more elevated risk premiums on offer for its debt. Thank you, as always, for your time.

In this episode, Olivia Guthorn, Managing Director in Oaktree's Opportunities Group, describes a credit market at all-time tights that appears to be looking through potentially significant macro risks, while meaningful dispersion builds underneath, particularly in healthcare IT and software. Olivia outlines Oaktree's cautious, highly selective approach to sectors exposed to AI disruption, focusing on businesses with durable characteristics such as proprietary data, strong customer integration, high switching costs, regulatory moats, and sufficient capital to invest in new technology. For healthcare, she draws a sharp distinction between provider IT and payer IT, with the former expected to be more insulated from AI risk and the latter being more exposed given the resources and incentive large national payers have to insource.Olivia discusses how policy changes including the One Big Beautiful Bill's impact on Medicaid reimbursement, potential ACA subsidy expiration, and a growing focus on fraud, waste, and abuse are driving dispersion across subsectors, with med devices and pharma looking relatively more attractive and Medicaid-exposed services remaining challenged. She also touches upon the growing focus on private credit and how the historical notion that private credit doesn't trade is being tested, with trading activity so far remaining limited and orderly but potentially accelerating if redemption pressures increase. She highlights that the next two to three years should represent a significant opportunity for sector-specialist, bottom-up investors in opportunistic credit like Oaktree.

Mi a gond?"En: "Of course, Árpád. What's the matter?"Hu: Árpád mélyen sóhajtott.En: Árpád sighed deeply.Hu: "Néha úgy érzem, észre sem veszed, hogy mi zajlik bennem.En: "Sometimes I feel like you don't even notice what's going on inside me.Hu: Tudom, hogy te mindig sikeres vagy, de én is próbálok..."En: I know you're always successful, but I'm trying too..."Hu: Eszter megállt, komolyabb arcot vágott.En: Eszter stopped, her expression turning more serious.Hu: "Árpád, soha nem akartam, hogy így érezz.En: "Árpád, I never wanted you to feel that way.Hu: Azért szeretem, hogy itt vagy, mert te vagy a második otthonom."En: I love having you here because you're my second home."Hu: Árpád pislogott.En: Árpád blinked.Hu: Nem számított ilyen őszinteségre.En: He hadn't expected such honesty.Hu: "Tényleg így gondolod?En: "Do you really mean that?Hu: Néha úgy érzem, eltűnök a háttérben."En: Sometimes I feel like I fade into the background."Hu: Eszter megérintette a karját.En: Eszter touched his arm.Hu: "Minden nap csodállak.En: "I admire you every day.Hu: Te vagy az egyetlen, akire mindig támaszkodhatok.En: You're the only one I can always rely on.Hu: Én is szeretném, ha tudnád, hogy nekem fontos vagy."En: I also want you to know that you're important to me."Hu: A szél újra megborzolta a vízfelszínt, és a testvérek csendben nézték a távolba.En: The wind once again ruffled the water's surface, and the siblings silently gazed into the distance.Hu: Árpád rájött, hogy talán eddig félreértette a dolgokat.En: Árpád realized that perhaps he had misunderstood things all along.Hu: Nem Eszter árnyékában élt, hanem a nővéri szeretete mindig ott volt, hogy megvédje.En: He hadn't lived in Eszter's shadow; her sisterly love had always been there to protect him.Hu: "Köszönöm, Eszter.En: "Thank you, Eszter.Hu: Tudom, hogy ez nem egyszerű, de most már jobban érzem magam."En: I know this isn't easy, but I feel better now."Hu: Eszter elmosolyodott és megfogta bátyja kezét.En: Eszter smiled and took her brother's hand.Hu: "Mindig itt leszek neked.En: "I'll always be here for you.Hu: És most menjünk vissza a többiekhez.En: And now, let's go back to the others.Hu: Meghívtak minket egy közös vacsorára."En: We've been invited to a family dinner."Hu: A tó tiszta vizében a nap elcsúszott az égen, és a testvérek lassan visszasétáltak a családhoz.En: In the clear water of the lake, the sun slipped across the sky, and the siblings slowly walked back to the family.Hu: Ahogy közeledtek a nevető hangok felé, Árpád végre szabadnak és fontosnak érezte magát.En: As they approached the sounds of laughter, Árpád finally felt free and important.Hu: Eszterrel való beszélgetésük új irányt adott kapcsolatuknak, és a következő családi összejövetelen már máshogyan fogja látni magát.En: Their conversation had given their relationship a new direction, and at the next family gathering, he would see himself differently.Hu: Most tudta, hogy nem csak a saját bizonytalanságai korlátozták, hanem a saját értékének felismerése is új kaput nyitott előtte.En: Now he knew that it wasn't just his own insecurities holding him back, but recognizing his own value opened a new door for him.

This episode explores one of the most important debates in markets today: whether investors are underestimating the risk of higher inflation and overconcentrating in a narrow group of growth stocks.Richard Bernstein of Janus Henderson Investors joins Excess Returns to explain why today's environment may look more like the inflationary 1960s than the 1970s, what that means for portfolios, and why many investors may be disappointed with passive index returns over the next decade.Richard walks through the implications of rising import prices, global conflict, and deglobalization, and how these forces could drive a structural shift toward higher inflation and shorter-duration investing. He also explains why market concentration, AI enthusiasm, and capital flows may be setting up a broadening opportunity across overlooked areas of the market.Follow Rich on Twitter:https://twitter.com/RBAdvisorsCompany Website:https://www.rbadvisors.comWhy investors in S&P 500 index funds may face disappointing long-term returnsThe shift from exporting disinflation to importing inflation through global tradeHow war and geopolitical conflict are influencing inflation expectations and marketsWhy today's environment resembles the 1960s “guns and butter” period more than the 1970sThe case for structurally higher inflation and a potential shift in Fed targetsWhy shorter-duration assets, dividends, and cash flow matter more in inflationary regimesThe risks of overconcentration in AI and mega-cap growth stocksHow capital flows and valuation distortions create opportunities outside the Mag 7The case for international equities and why investors are significantly underweightWhere Bernstein sees the most compelling long-term opportunities across sectors and regions00:00 Intro and why index investors could be disappointed00:01:13 War, inflation, and the impact of rising gasoline prices00:02:40 Importing inflation and the role of global trade dynamics00:03:33 1970s oil shock vs 1960s guns and butter comparison00:05:00 Why today's inflation environment may be less severe than the 1970s00:06:30 Defense spending, tax cuts, and inflation expectations00:08:54 Why Bernstein is taking the “over” on inflation and deficits00:10:00 The case for a higher long-term inflation target00:11:00 Why the Fed may resist changing its 2% inflation target00:12:00 Deglobalization and the rise of global conflict00:14:00 Global inflation dynamics and divergence across countries00:15:21 Why cash and short-duration assets may outperform00:17:00 Asset-liability mismatches and the endowment model stress00:18:23 Market concentration and parallels to the dot-com bubble00:20:00 AI as an economic story vs an investment story00:21:00 Capital flows, valuation excess, and future return expectations00:22:39 Why market broadening opportunities may emerge00:24:19 Passive flows, ETFs, and market distortions00:25:40 Where Bernstein sees sector opportunities today00:27:34 The case for dividends in an inflationary environment00:31:00 Why near-term cash flow matters more than long-term growth00:33:07 Corporate behavior, capital allocation, and rising hurdle rates00:36:02 Profit cycle strength and why the market should broaden00:41:36 Evaluating IPOs and speculative investments00:47:09 The risk of a lost decade for index investors00:50:21 Gold, commodities, and portfolio diversification00:53:48 Most attractive overlooked opportunities today00:58:06 Biggest long-term risks and what keeps Bernstein up at night

In a volatile and often unpredictable market, finding reliable returns is becoming increasingly challenging. This episode explores a defensive, multi-asset approach with SVS RM Defensive Capital manager Dr Niall O'Connor. This fund looks beyond traditional equities and bonds, focusing instead on overlooked, under-researched opportunities. From high-yield bonds and discounted investment trusts to commodities and frontier markets, the interview highlights how diversification is evolving. It also examines why traditional hedges may no longer behave as expected, the risks posed by inflation, and where genuine opportunities still exist. With a strong emphasis on valuation discipline and identifying neglected assets, this episode offers a fresh perspective on building resilience in today's investment landscape.What's covered in this episode: Alternative assets beyond traditional marketsInvesting in overlooked, under-researched opportunitiesNavigating volatility in bonds and equitiesCapital preservation vs growth vs diversifiersHigh-yield bonds and income strategiesDiscounted investment trusts and valuation opportunitiesBiotech, private equity, and “unloved” sectorsCommodities and uranium exposureWhy traditional hedges may be failingInflation risks and consumer pressureMarket polarisation and AI-driven enthusiasmFrontier markets and global opportunitiesLearn more on fundcalibre.comPlease remember, we've been discussing individual companies to bring investing to life for you.

“In biotech, all of the ideas sound amazing and most of them don’t work.” Roivant CEO Matt Gline joins Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Sam Fazeli on this episode of the Vanguards of Health Care podcast to explain how the company tries to tilt those odds through an unconventional model built around focused, entrepreneurial “vants.” Gline discusses why Roivant targets overlooked or deprioritized large-pharma assets, how its structure is designed to preserve speed and accountability, and why clinical rigor, capital allocation and disciplined execution matter more than biotech hype. The conversation also explores orphan-style launches, FDA consistency, AI and the challenge of building durable value in a volatile biotech market.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dan Nathan and Guy Adami discuss a volatile Friday session after a hotter-than-expected CPI, with software making multi-year lows while semiconductors push to highs, raising the idea that “something's gotta give.” They point to Microsoft's sharp drawdown as emblematic of software weakness and debate whether capitulation is near as earnings approach, while semis rally on incremental AI hardware headlines like Broadcom's TPU-related deal with Google and Anthropic. They consider a 2026 “trade” of bottom-fishing battered software and fading crowded semis, flagging Intel's rich valuation and Qualcomm's lagging performance despite an edge-AI/inference narrative. They also note security stocks selling off despite rising AI-driven vulnerability concerns, warn that any hyperscaler CapEx pullback could hit semis hard, and preview bank earnings amid mixed signals on consumer credit, deregulation/IPO optimism, and cyclical risk, alongside geopolitics affecting oil and Taiwan.

In this Freestyle Friday episode, I catch up with Eric Weber after our recent walk through downtown San Francisco. We dive deep into the very real fear and identity crises sweeping through the tech industry as AI accelerates. We discuss how packing a year of change into a single week is disorienting workers and how the constant hustle culture in SF might finally be hitting its threshold.We also get into the darker side of this shift, including the "reverse centaur" effect where humans are reduced to parts of a machine. Are white-collar engineers about to face the Amazon warehouse treatment through token consumption leaderboards? Eric also shares why he took a step back from leadership, his focus on writing, and the importance of genuine human connection right now.Eric Weber: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericweberdata/

REVEALING THE REAL YOU: FINDING VALUE IN VULNERABILITY Have you ever felt like you had to put on a mask just to be accepted or valued? In this special Pajama Day message, we strip away the filters and explore why God values our authentic, vulnerable selves. God didn't ask us for an over a polished image of perfection. In this video, we dive deep into the biblical theme of humility, starting with how Jesus entered the world not in royal robes, but in simple swaddling clothes. We discuss the difference between bringing God our excellence versus putting on a religious mask of hypocrisy. Using the story of Gideon and powerful modern day testimonies from the Middle East, we discover that God does not need us to be perfect to use us. He uses our cracks and weaknesses to show His true power. You will learn why your value is not determined by your productivity, your past, or your outward appearance. Just like a crumpled 100 dollar bill holds its worth because of its creator, your value is infinite because you are a child of God. Whether you feel like the least of the least or you are struggling with the pressure to be enough, this word will encourage you to pair your life with the Creator who makes you more than enough.

Today's show is all about digging into value, which often can be found in the scariest portions of the stock market. Of late, nothing has been scarier than the wash-out in software stocks, but in the Market Call, Adam Peck, co-founder of Riverwater Partners, says that the "massacre in the software space" has made it that the software sector is now a value priced sector for the first time in two decades. With a lot of software stocks with double-digit free cash flow yields, Peck says, making software "one of the most interesting areas of the market." The software companies troubles have spilled over into the realm of business-development companies, many of which have made loans to software companies that, in theory, could be troubled if artificial intelligence replaces the need for software as a service. Behind the theory that software companies will struggle to pay debts as artificial intelligence renders their products less useful and attractive, there are been some scary, well-publicized issues with a few BDCs. John Cole Scott, president of CEF Advisors, digs into the math that is impacting the lenders and BDCs in general. Scott, who also serves as chairman of the Active Investment Company Alliance, shows how the headlines could be creating values that make the industry more attractive, not less, for investors who understand and measure the risk.  Plus, Columbia University finance professor Ehsan Ehsani discusses his new book, "Finding Value in Numbers: The Essential Investing Toolkit to Win on Wall Street," which helps investors follow value-oriented strategies in all market conditions.

In this episode, we're joined by deep value investor Lee Roach, author of The Value Road Substack, to explore what it really means to find value where no one else is looking.Lee shares his unconventional path from working overnight shifts in a manufacturing plant to becoming a full-time investor and writer. We dive into his approach to deep value investing, with a focus on micro-cap and nano-cap stocks, why “cheap” isn't enough without a catalyst, and how patience and psychology play a critical role when prices move against you.We also discuss the tradeoffs of investing in illiquid markets, how to distinguish between stocks that are cheap for a reason versus simply ignored, and why smaller investors may actually have an edge in parts of the market institutions can't touch.This is a thoughtful conversation about process, discipline, and doing the work others won't — not chasing hype, but uncovering opportunity in the market's blind spots.Join the premium Skippy and Doogles fan club.

Some of the most powerful ideas in marketing don't come from marketing at all. They come from stories that refuse to play it safe.That's the lesson of Dune, the sci-fi epic once considered unfilmable and now one of the most successful franchises of the decade. In this episode, we break down its marketing lessons with the help of our special guest Madhav Bhandari, Head of Marketing at Storylane.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from world-building, pattern interruptions, and betting on emerging talent.About our guest, Madhav BhandariMadhav Bhandari is the Head of Marketing at Storylane. He's a a B2B marketer with 12+ years of experience helping startups grow from scrappy beginnings ($2M+ ARR) to category leadership ($20M+ ARR and beyond). Madhav built lean, high-performing marketing engines across both PLG / sales-led companies. His strength and philosophy is doing marketing that stands out. I focus on work that drives action and ties directly to pipeline.Madhav has helped many scale-ups grow beyond $10M ARR, either as a full-time leader or a hands-on advisor. I love taking on this challenge.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Dune:Show the product, don't narrate it. Madhav's first lesson from Dune is about restraint. The film works because it removes exposition and lets the audience experience the world firsthand. He draws a direct parallel to B2B marketing, saying, “ You've seen the B2B website homepages that are just full of jargon.  And I think now is the time to actually show the product.” Too many B2B teams rely on jargon, stock imagery, and abstract claims, forcing buyers to imagine value. The takeaway is simple: remove the guesswork. Interactive demos, real visuals, and tangible experiences outperform explanations every time. If buyers have to imagine what your product does, you've already added friction.Go where the work is unpopular but important. In Dune, the most valuable resource in the universe lives in the most unremarkable place. Madhav says, “ Unpopular but important projects, that's where the largest customer growth lies.” In marketing, that means resisting the pull of flashy homepage redesigns and brand exercises when the real leverage sits deeper, product pages, conversion paths, and messy parts of the funnel no one wants to own. If everyone wants to work on it, it's probably already optimized. The real upside lives where attention is scarce.Bet on emerging voices, not just famous ones. Dune didn't rely on a single A-list star to succeed, and Madhav has seen the same dynamic play out in B2B. His experience is clear: “ anytime I've gone with… a very popular influencer… that I interviewed, those episodes the way I thought they would perform, didn't really perform that well. Bu what's funny is that the people that are relatively unpopular but have done incredible work are the episodes that did fantastic.” Big names feel safe, but they're expensive and often underdeliver. Audiences respond more to sharp thinking and real experience than borrowed fame. In B2B, the fastest way to build trust is to help your audience discover someone worth listening to, before everyone else does.Quote“ Today, in our world, sameness is risky… The worst that could happen … is it's gonna perform the same as if you would've not done that, and the best case scenario is it's just gonna do insanely well.” Time Stamps[01:03] Meet Madhav Bhandari, Head of Marketing at Storylane01:08 Why Dune?01:51 Role of Head of Marketing at Storylane02:37 Breaking Down Dune10:53 B2B Marketing Takeaways from Dune25:18 Influencer Campaign Strategies28:28 The Power of Brand Awareness31:12 Storylane's Marketing Strategy35:08 Creative Marketing Examples38:37 Content Strategy and Founder Branding45:25 Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Madhav on LinkedInLearn more about StorylaneAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

In Episode 461 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with co-founder and chief investment strategist of GMO, Jeremy Grantham, and financial historian, journalist, and investment strategist Edward Chancellor. Together, they have collaborated on Jeremy's autobiography, titled "The Making of a Permabear," which chronicles Grantham's evolution as a value investor and the valuable lessons that can be learned from his six-decade career in investment management. They spend the first hour of their conversation discussing the collaboration behind the book, Grantham's formative experiences in finance, the principles that have guided his investment philosophy, the role of mean reversion in asset markets, and why they both believe that US equities are more overvalued today than at almost any point in history—with important implications for where returns will come from over the next decade. The second hour is devoted to a conversation about the mechanics of financial bubbles, the relationship between ultra-low interest rates and asset price inflation, Jeremy's framework for navigating overvalued markets by shifting capital to international and emerging market equities, the challenges of selecting investment managers, and Grantham's deep concerns about existential risks to human civilization—including climate change, resource scarcity, and the toxic assault on human fertility that he believes poses an underappreciated threat to our species' long-term survival.
