On today's show we are going to look at something that has been making financial headlines all over the world over the past two days. The purpose of discussing it on this show is that even the major financial media like the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg have been misreporting the story.  The headline is that another Bank, this time a Japanese bank is running into trouble. The assumption is that the problem has to do with the inversion of the yield curve and investment in long term treasuries is the reason for the bank's problems. Some of the problems which cause the failure of Silicon Valley Bank, First Republic Bank and Signature Bank last year stemmed from the need to raise additional cash, and in so doing, those banks were forced to sell US Treasuries at a loss. If those banks had the luxury of holding those bonds to maturity, then there would have been no losses.  What we will discuss today is that the symptoms look similar, but that the root cause of the actual problem is quite different.  ------------ **Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)  

This Day in Legal History: Hoover DeadOn this day, May 2, in 1972, J. Edgar Hoover, the controversial and influential Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), passed away at the age of 77. Hoover had been at the helm of the FBI since 1924, dramatically shaping the agency's direction and methods for nearly half a century. His tenure began during the tumultuous era of Prohibition when he aggressively pursued bootleggers and organized crime. This initial success helped cement his reputation and solidify his position within the U.S. government.Hoover's impact extended far beyond the fight against crime. After World War II, he focused the FBI's attention on combating communism, a stance that resonated with the fears of the American public during the Cold War era. Under his direction, the FBI also kept close surveillance on civil rights organizations and pro-rights groups, reflecting his belief in strict law enforcement and his skepticism of civil liberties movements. This approach led to extensive criticism of Hoover, particularly concerning his methods and the extent of his power.His leadership saw the introduction of scientific crime-fighting techniques, including the centralized fingerprint file and the FBI Laboratory. Hoover also initiated the FBI National Academy, which aimed to improve the standards and cooperation among different American police forces. However, his secretive actions and the unauthorized surveillance programs, such as COINTELPRO, marred his legacy and led to significant changes in how U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies were overseen.Hoover's death marked the end of an era characterized by aggressive enforcement tactics intertwined with significant controversies regarding civil liberties. His influence on the FBI and American law enforcement continues to be a topic of study and debate, reflecting the complexities of balancing national security and individual rights. His passing prompted a reevaluation of the powers and oversight of federal law enforcement agencies, ultimately leading to reforms intended to curb the excesses witnessed during his administration.A group of investment firms is poised to secure a significant profit from a $5.6 million investment in a legal case related to the bankruptcy of Sanchez Energy Corp. These firms, led by Benefit Street Partners, provided financial backing to a coalition of unsecured creditors involved in the legal disputes surrounding the 2019 bankruptcy of Sanchez Energy. This funding arrangement promised the investment firms 90% of any financial recoveries from the proceedings.The lawsuit centers on the control of Sanchez Energy, which has since been rebranded as Mesquite Energy Inc. following its emergence from bankruptcy. The Delaware Trust Co., representing these unsecured creditors, succeeded in gaining 70% control of the newly named company. Other firms involved include Brigade Capital, Avenue Capital, and Taconic Capital.However, a group of unsecured creditors, led by Lake Whillans and Clear Harbor, contested this arrangement, arguing that it improperly altered the bankruptcy reorganization plan by diverting a disproportionate share of the equity—potentially worth hundreds of millions—to the investors. They filed a lawsuit alleging that this deal was the result of a secretive conspiracy that unfairly benefited the largest claimholders.The legal challenge saw a development when Judge Marvin Isgur of the US Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas dismissed one of the claims against this funding deal but allowed Lake Whillans and Clear Harbor to amend their lawsuit to pursue other specific claims.Investors Near $600 Million Windfall in Texas Bankruptcy CaseThe EPA has allocated $3 billion from the bipartisan infrastructure law to assist states in replacing lead drinking water pipes, as part of a broader $15 billion initiative that Congress approved to be distributed in yearly installments through 2026. This funding will be managed through the EPA's Drinking Water State Revolving Fund and is expected to aid in the replacement of approximately 1.7 million lead pipes nationwide.Michael Regan, the EPA Administrator, emphasized the urgent need for this initiative, pointing out the historical use of lead in service lines and its proven dangers. Regan highlighted that there is no safe level of lead exposure, underlining the critical public health issue this program aims to address.Illinois and Florida are the major beneficiaries in the 2024 funding tranche, set to receive over $240 million and nearly $229 million respectively. This funding distribution underscores the nationwide push to mitigate lead risks in drinking water.Additionally, the EPA plans to release a memo outlining how states can best utilize these funds and other resources to minimize lead exposure effectively. This includes the establishment of best practices for deploying the infrastructure funds.Amid these developments, utilities are under a tight deadline, set for October 16, to complete an inventory of all lead pipes as mandated by the Lead and Copper Rule from the Trump administration. Furthermore, the EPA is proposing a significant update to this rule, named the Lead and Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI), which would accelerate lead pipe replacements, requiring utilities to replace 10% of lead service lines each year over the next decade, a sharp increase from the current requirement of 3% annually. This proposal is expected to be finalized by October. This initiative and regulatory update are critical steps towards eradicating lead contamination in U.S. drinking water systems, reflecting a significant commitment to public health and safety.EPA Sends $3 Billion to States for Lead Water Pipe ReplacementMich. to receive $62 million for lead pipe replacements this year, EPA announcesJohn Eastman, an attorney for Donald Trump, faced a setback when his bid to lift his suspension from practicing law in California was denied. State Bar Court Judge Yvette Roland determined that Eastman failed to demonstrate that he no longer poses a threat to the public. This decision aligns with her earlier recommendation for Eastman's disbarment due to deceptive statements he made about the 2020 presidential election's electoral process.Judge Roland emphasized that the suspension serves to protect the public, citing Eastman's significant transgressions that involved moral turpitude and his continued refusal to acknowledge any wrongdoing. She indicated that these factors contribute to a likely risk of future misconduct, thereby justifying the suspension.Eastman, a former law professor at Chapman University, was placed on inactive enrollment shortly after the disbarment recommendation. The California Supreme Court is expected to make the final decision, but it is improbable that it will deviate from Judge Roland's recommendation.Further compounding Eastman's legal challenges, he and other associates, including former New York City mayor Rudolph Giuliani, were indicted for their efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia. They have all pleaded not guilty to charges of election interference. Amidst these legal battles, Eastman claimed that the suspension jeopardizes his livelihood and his ability to cover substantial legal fees, estimated at $3 million.The State Bar's Office of Chief Trial Counsel argued that the suspension is mandatory under California law for anyone recommended for disbarment, emphasizing that the suspension was not due to client complaints but due to the significant threat Eastman poses to public safety and justice administration. Eastman plans to appeal the decision, a process expected to take about a year.Eastman Judge Denies His Bid to Pause Law License SuspensionThe trial of Donald J. Trump, which is a landmark case as it involves a former U.S. president, resumed with attorney Keith Davidson back on the witness stand. Davidson previously represented Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal, both of whom alleged affairs with Trump. The focal point of his testimony revolves around the negotiations for hush-money payments aimed at preventing these women from publicizing their stories prior to the 2016 presidential election.Davidson's testimony provided insights into the secretive world of celebrity scandal management, detailing a $130,000 payment arranged by Trump's lawyer Michael Cohen to silence Daniels. Cohen purportedly disguised these payments as "legal expenses" within the Trump Organization's books, an action for which Trump has been charged with falsifying business records. If found guilty, Trump could face up to four years in prison. He has pleaded not guilty and denied the allegations of the affair.The testimony highlighted Davidson's doubts about Cohen's reliability in making the payment, comparing his behavior to a distractible character from the movie "Up." Despite these uncertainties, Cohen tried to reassure Davidson by forwarding an email from First Republic Bank confirming his financial solvency.Davidson also touched upon his representation of McDougal, who received a $150,000 hush payment from the parent company of The National Enquirer, a deal aimed at suppressing negative news during the election campaign.As the trial progresses, the former publisher of The National Enquirer, David Pecker, testified about his refusal to facilitate a payment for Daniels, distancing himself from further financial involvement.Prosecutors are expected to conclude their questioning of Davidson soon, after which Trump's defense will cross-examine him. Additionally, the judge, Juan M. Merchan, will address instances where Trump allegedly violated a gag order by attacking witnesses and jurors, having already fined him $9,000 for previous violations. This session follows a series of significant courtroom activities, including video evidence from Trump's 2016 campaign rallies and testimonies that underscore the contentious atmosphere surrounding this high-profile trial.Additionally, today, the prosecutor has requested additional fines for Donald Trump for violating a gag order. The prosecutor argued that Trump's recent comments jeopardized the trial's integrity by intimidating potential witnesses. Trump's lawyer defended his right to respond to political attacks, but the judge appeared skeptical. Trump faces potential fines and even jail time for violating the gag order, with the trial continuing amidst a backdrop of political tension and legal challenges.Trump Trial to Resume With Testimony From Keith Davidson, Stormy Daniels' Lawyer - The New York TimesTrump hush-money trial judge to weigh more fines for defying gag order | Reuters Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

We've heard from three witnesses in Trump's election interference case in Manhattan. David Pecker, former publisher of National Enquirer, testified about coordinating the “catch and kill” scheme and that he was aware that a payment to Karen McDougal was probably a violation of campaign finance law.Rhona Graff, Trump's “gatekeeper” since 1987, testified that Trump had contact info for Karen McDougal and Stormy Daniels.Gary Farrow, former senior managing director at First Republic Bank, testified about the LLC Michael Cohen created to make the payment to Stormy.Judge Merchan announced he will hold another hearing on Thursday about whether Trump has violated his gag order, again.Kenneth Chesebro is back in the news for his part in the fake electors scheme.Steve Bannon's We Build the Wall fraud trial gets postponed until September.

Thanks!It might seem odd to bestow the title of “titan” upon someone once described in the New York Times as standing five-foot-two and weighing 100 pounds wet. But if you know anything about banking M&A and regulatory work, you know that H. Rodgin Cohen, senior chair of Sullivan & Cromwell, is a true giant of the field.For more than 50 years, Rodge Cohen has practiced at the pinnacle of financial-services law. He's played a role in many historical events over the decades, including New York City's fiscal crisis, where he helped rescue the city from the brink of bankruptcy in 1975; the Iran hostage crisis, where he counseled American banks that released frozen Iranian funds, part of the deal that led to the 1981 release of the hostages; the 2008 financial crisis, where he represented the buyer or the seller in seemingly every major bank deal; and efforts last year to save Silicon Valley Bank and First Republic Bank.In my latest podcast episode, I interview Rodge about his remarkable career, including his involvement in the aforementioned, headline-making events. But we also cover his childhood in West Virginia, his advice for how to succeed as a deal lawyer, and even his theater and reading recommendations—because despite his demanding practice, Rodge somehow finds the time to see numerous shows and read tons of books. (One recent work we both recommend is Paula Vogel's Mother Play, which yesterday snagged four Tony Award nominations, including Best New Play.)For my first-ever interview of a corporate or transactional attorney (as opposed to a litigator), I wanted to get a big name—and Rodge Cohen is one of the biggest and best in the business. I guessed that he would be “too big to fail”—and if you listen to our enjoyable and wide-ranging conversation, you'll see that I was right.Show Notes:* H. Rodgin Cohen bio, Sullivan & Cromwell* H.

In this week's episode I had a beautiful conversation with Best-Selling Author, Award Winning Researcher, and International Keynote Speaker Mona Patel who is an expert in reframing the way people think and operate in their companies. For over 23 years, Mona has been a thought-leader on innovation, customer experience and creativity; helping brands like Nike, Facebook, Capital One, First Republic Bank and Pfizer. She founded and built a series of 7-figure companies and her latest company, Gray Zones, produces content that inspires leaders to have more empathy, awareness and understanding in the workplace. Since early childhood, Mona stood out with her constant drive and passion for achievement and success. However, later she realized that her addiction to accomplishments was more about external validation than inner fulfillment. Defining who she was, what she really wanted and why, was fundamental to shift from having a life that was “good on paper” to one that genuinely felt good. Even though it was a long  journey that required courage, curiosity and consistent progress, Mona paved a path for real fulfillment and happiness both in her personal and professional life. In her book “Reframe” Mona shared her techniques to find and spark your creativity and “superpower” by removing mental, cultural and organizational barriers. This can also be crucial for the corporations that are tackling to bring their ideas into reality by shifting how people see and perceive things. Tune in for an inspiring conversation! Some powerful takeaways from today's episode: It is important to differentiate what feels good and what will really make you happy in the long-run Reflecting can be more powerful than merely advising Take one small step towards your desired direction day by day  Your ego will obey when you start asking the right questions  Doing something different every day can stimulate you to see things differently  Links: Guest's LinkedIn: Mona Patel | LinkedIn Gray Zon's Website:  https://www.grayzones.org/ THE RE:INVENTION EXCHANGE - for more Inspired Content, Blogs, Podcasts, RE:INVENTION Virtual Chats, or to buy a copy of my book RE:INVENT YOUR LIFE!

There have been similar protests in other European countries, such as the Netherlands, as governments seek to cut greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture. Why are German farmers protesting? The protest is against the government's plan to remove tax privileges and subsidies which farmers currently benefit from. The government says the measures should help protect the climate. Under the plans, farmers will no longer get tax breaks for diesel they use whilst farming, nor an exemption from car tax for farming vehicles.

On Monday, First Republic Bank folded before being sold by regulators to JPMorgan Chase. At the time, it was the 14th largest bank in the U.S. and it is the second-largest American bank by assets to ever collapse. The story of First Republic's fall is similar to that of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature before it – the value of the bank's assets began to plummet as the Fed raised interest rates to fight inflation, causing a crisis of confidence among investors and depositors. This is exactly the kind of situation that the economic historian Adam Tooze warned of when he came on the show in October of 2022. In that conversation, Tooze argued that the Fed's interest rate hikes were “shaking the entire system” – putting pressure on every level of the global financial system, from regional banks to countries that borrow on the U.S. dollar. It would only be a matter of time, he predicted, before things started breaking. Well, things are certainly breaking now, and it's very possible there's more to come. The Fed decided to raise interest rates once again on Wednesday, bringing them above 5 percent for the first time in more than 15 years. So it felt like the right time to revisit our conversation about the fragile, uncertain future of the global economy at this history-making moment and the Fed's role in it. We also discuss what the British financial market meltdown means for the rest of the world, how the interest rate hikes in rich countries export inflation to other countries, the looming possibility of a global recession, why Tooze believes the confluence of high inflation, rising interest rates and high levels of debt points to an economic “polycrisis” unlike any the world has seen, why countries in South Asia are experiencing a particularly severe form of polycrisis, how the Fed should weigh its mandate to bring down inflation against the global consequences of its actions, why he believes analogies to the American inflationary period of the 1970s are misguided and more.Editor's note: Due to a technical error, a previous version of this episode featured the wrong audio file.

There are massive rapid changes unfurling in the financial world. This week's biggest news: First Republic Bank collapsed; JP Morgan Chase acquired it. (As it happens, I was one of 12 people who was lucky enough to have dinner with Chase CEO Jamie Dimon exactly one week ago – just days before the acquisition. I tell that story around the 8-minute mark of today's episode.) The Fed issued a 10th consecutive rate hike, raising interest rates another quarter of a percentage point. Inflation is still double the target rate. And public confidence in bedrock financial institutions, as measured by a regional banking index fund, is in the toilet. I talk about these issues for the first 18-ish minutes of the podcast, and then we switch to a replay of an interview that we held with acclaimed financial advisor Michael Kitces, which originally aired as Episode 64.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- According to The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board, the Biden Administration is seeking to implement a new rule which “will raise mortgage fees for borrowers with good credit to subsidize higher-risk borrowers. Under the rule, which goes into effect May 1, home buyers with a good credit score over 680 will pay about $40 more each month on a $400,000 loan, and upward depending on the size of the loan. Those who make down payments of 20% on their homes will pay the highest fees. Those payments will then be used to subsidize higher-risk borrowers through lower fees.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/upside-down-mortgage-policy-212fd736 3:15pm- In response to the expiration of Title 42, President Joe Biden announced that he will dispatch 1,500 active-duty military personnel to the U.S. Southern Border to help prevent illegal border crossings from surging. 3:30pm- Flashback: During an interview with Ezra Klein in 2015, Senator Bernie Sanders (D-VT) said he vehemently opposed “open-borders” and claimed it was a right-wing proposal being supported by the Koch brothers—alleging that Republicans wanted relaxed border security in order to drive down the cost of labor and, subsequently, enhance the profits of large corporations. How has the Democrat party changed its stance on border security so drastically in just 8 years? 3:50pm- Flashback: In 2018, in response to the Trump Administration's decision to send troops to the U.S. Southern Border, then-Senator Kamala Harris claimed the act was “inappropriate” and “political”—so, then why is the Biden Administration doing the very same thing now? Was Harris simply attempting to politicize the issue in 2018? 4:05pm- During the Senate Judiciary Committee's hearing on Supreme Court Ethics Reform, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) stated that the hearing's primary intention was to destroy the reputation of ideologically conservative Justices—specifically Justice Clarence Thomas. Sen. Cruz also condemned Senate Democrats for attempting to reduce funding for Justice security even after the attempted assassination of Justice Brett Kavanaugh following the release of a leaked draft of the court's decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, which ultimately upended Roe v. Wade. 4:15pm- The Wall Street Journal's Editorial Board writes, “Senate Democrats are holding another hearing on ‘Supreme Court Ethics Reform'…and it's important to understand that this isn't about ethics at all. This is another front in the political campaign to delegitimize the Supreme Court, with a goal of tarnishing its rulings and subjecting it to more political control.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/supreme-court-ethics-reform-hearing-senate-democrats-john-roberts-clarence-thomas-ketanji-brown-jackson-sonia-sotomayor-d0304d65?mod=opinion_lead_pos1 4:30pm- Nicholas Tomaino—Assistant Editorial Features Editor at The Wall Street Journal—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest editorial, “Politico Aims at Gorsuch and Misses.” Politico's Heidi Przybyla alleges that the sale of a property linked to Neil Gorsuch amounts to an ethics problem for the Supreme Court Justice. But as Tomaino points out, Justice Gorsuch disclosed the transaction and “didn't own the property directly. Rather, he held a 20% share in Walden Group LLC, a company he and two partners formed when they bought the house in 2005, before Mr. Gorsuch was a judge. The company listed the property for sale in 2015, asking $2.495 million, and sold it to Mr. Duffy two years later for $1.825 million.” So where is the ethics problem? You can read Tomaino's full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/politico-aims-at-gorsuch-and-misses-disclosure-colorado-ethics-reform-durbin-87a4fc50?mod=opinion_lead_pos7 4:55pm- During a recent episode of his podcast, Joe Rogan suggested that former Fox News host Tucker Carlson should appear on the online video platform Rumble. 5:05pm- The Drive at 5: President of Thomas Jefferson University Dr. Mark Tykocinski was reprimanded via email by the institution's Chief Executive Officer Joseph Cacchione for “liked” Tweets that questioned the efficacy of gender affirming surgeries for children. Should Dr. Tykocinski have been forced to apologize? Zeoli notes that it appears academia now only accepts dangerous versions of “group think.” 5:20pm- The Mystery Movie Clip: Rich forgets to ask caller twelve for the name of the film… 5:40pm- According to a new poll from the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, young Democrats are abnormally depressed.   6:05pm- According to a report from channel 8 WISH-TV in Indiana, Councilmember Ryan Webb has announced that he will now be identifying as a “lesbian woman of color.” Webb appeared on Fox News with Jesse Kelly to explain his decision to be his “true self” publicly for the first time. 6:30pm- In response to the collapse of First Republic Bank, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre stated the Biden Administration is very confident there will be no more banking failures. Rachel Louise Ensign and Ben Eisen of The Wall Street Journal write, “[r]egulators seized First Republic Bank and struck a deal to sell the bulk of its operations to JPMorgan Chase Co., heading off a chaotic collapse that threatened to reignite the recent banking crisis. JPMorgan said it will assume all of First Republic's $92 billion in deposits—insured and uninsured. It is also buying most of the bank's assets, including about $173 billion in loans and $30 billion in securities.” You can read Ensign and Eisen's full report here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/first-republic-bank-is-seized-sold-to-jpmorgan-in-second-largest-u-s-bank-failure-5cec723 6:45pm- On Tuesday, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland testified at a Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee hearing where she seemingly claimed there were too many jobs in America for “blue collar workers.” Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) questioned Sec. Haaland about the Biden Administration's “clean energy” agenda and its habit of promoting reliance upon foreign nations for the mining of precious metals and minerals necessary for the development of batteries used in electric cars.
