Private credit defaults have officially reached a record. According to Fitch Ratings, the default rate rose to 6.3% in August, exceeding the previous record set only one month earlier. But the most important number may not be 6.3%. It may be Fitch's 45%. And that reveals the bigger story, one about liquidity and tightening. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

Muy buenos días, ya tenemos la decisión del Banco de Japón y como era esperado, subió tasas, pero antes hablemos acerca de que EE.UU. reactiva poco a poco importación de ganado mexicano. En asuntos del Paquete Económico, Fitch duda que el país logre una consolidación fiscal que frene la deuda. En el mundo corporativo, un “shark” da un golpe de timón con su propia empresa, hablo de Rodrigo Herrera y Genomma Lab. Mientras tanto, hasta con la realeza británica se discute qué hacer con la IA.

Matt Fraser is America's top psychic medium, a New York Times bestselling author, and star of the hit television series Meet the Frasiers. In this episode, Matt shares how he went from working as an EMT to building a career around his ability to connect with people and help them through loss. He explains why fear and self-doubt are often the biggest obstacles to making more money, how to identify your natural talents, and why taking small steps toward the things that fulfill you can open doors you never expected. On this episode we talk about: Matt's first job at Abercrombie & Fitch and the lessons it taught him about earning money How Matt discovered and eventually embraced his abilities as a psychic medium Why fear, self-doubt, and a lack of confidence keep people from pursuing their talents How to get unstuck by changing your environment, making time for what fulfills you, and taking baby steps How to distinguish your genuine talents from expectations placed on you by family or society Why following your own path can lead to both greater success and fulfillment How Matt turned individual readings into live events, television, books, podcasts, and a full-time career Why focusing on helping people and enjoying the journey can be more valuable than obsessing over money How to recognize signs and synchronicities from loved ones who have passed away The importance of finding your tribe and surrounding yourself with people who encourage your growth Top 3 Takeaways Fear is often the biggest obstacle. You may already have the talent, idea, or ability you need, but self-doubt can prevent you from ever putting it into the world. Start with baby steps. You don't need to know exactly where your path will lead. Start talking about your idea, get feedback, and take small actions that move you forward. Follow what fulfills you. Develop your talents, help people, build something meaningful, and enjoy the journey. The money can follow when you're creating real value. Notable Quotes “The number one thing that stops people from making money is really that they're afraid.” “All it takes is one reason. One reason on why it will work for you, and you will get there.” “You can't be focused on, you know, making the money, making the money, making the money. You're gonna be focused on helping as many people as you can, enjoying what you're doing, building something great, and the money will come.” Connect with Matt Fraser: Website: meetmattfraser.com Instagram: @meetmattfraser Live Tour: Tour dates are available through Matt's website A Word from Our Sponsors: - The most successful business owners don't do it all themselves — they delegate.

New guest Clint Fitch, who is apparently part bat, becomes the first BTP participant to play an entire episode upside down for this Snyder-hosted game. Ede proclaims 1) his rec league lied to him when they said no participants can have the physical ability to dunk, and 2) he is an avid runner...virtually. The card collectors among us salivate over a one-of-one, OG ligament card from the recently deceased UCL repair pioneer (Too soon?). In the Ocho or Stinko halftime, Bohmbach questions his life choices, and Walling finds a new sport to train for. New characters are revealed in the fourth as Walling approximates a nameless, impatient, hunched-over, vaguely Eastern European old man, and Snyder reveals his alter ego as Mr. No-Depth Perception, captured on video grainier than the Zapruder film. Finally, Clint reveals that he chewed a 38-year-old candy bar, along with gum from the 80s that tasted like Reaganomics. #lougehrig #idontwannadrivesixmilesletalonerun #zapruderfilm #reaganomics #batboy #itsnotbrainsurgery #theantiwoman https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

Lululemon was once one of the strongest brands in retail. Now comparable sales are falling, guidance has been cut repeatedly, and investors are asking whether the company can regain its footing—or whether its best days are behind it. In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan dig into why fashion companies can be some of the most difficult businesses to own for the long term. Consumer tastes can change quickly, switching costs are virtually nonexistent, aggressive expansion can backfire, and excessive discounting can train customers to stop paying full price. They look back at Express, Quiksilver and Aeropostale, three once-popular brands whose public shareholders were eventually wiped out, and contrast them with some remarkable comeback stories. Abercrombie & Fitch reinvented its brand, Victoria’s Secret changed course, and Crocs nearly went under before doubling down on the product that made it famous. Finally, Simon and Dan discuss what these examples could teach investors about Lululemon, whether its turnaround could take years, and why waiting for evidence of a recovery may make more sense than trying to perfectly time the bottom. Stocks discussed: LULU, ATZ.TO, GOOS, GRGD.TO, GAP, NKE, ANF, VSXY, CROX, ADS.DE. Subscribe to our Our New Youtube Channel!

Two of America's most recognized brands got publicly hated within months of each other in 2023. Bud Light apologized, pulled back, and lost its 22-year run as the top-selling beer in the country. Abercrombie and Fitch, once ranked the most hated retail brand in America, said almost nothing and spent seven years quietly fixing the product instead. Mike Brevik breaks down what actually separated the brand that never came back from the ones that did, and why the answer has nothing to do with crisis PR. KEY TAKEAWAYS The apology trap: when a brand retreats under pressure, fires an executive, or apologizes fast, it signals to the audience that the accusation was true. That single move helped sink Bud Light within six weeks of one Instagram post. Brand depth beats crisis PR. Abercrombie survived not because of what it said during the backlash, but because of seven years of visible, unannounced product and culture change under CEO Fran Horowitz afterward. American Eagle refused to apologize for the Sydney Sweeney campaign and turned the controversy into free attention that outperformed anything the brand could have bought. A brand built to appeal to everyone ends up standing for no one. Bud Light's 22 years of market share evaporated because no single group of customers felt strongly enough to stay. The real test isn't how a brand handles a crisis, it's whether the brand built enough depth beforehand. Ask now: if your brand got canceled tomorrow, would anyone show up for it? LINKS AND RESOURCES Brand Retro Podcast: brandretro.com Cyberdogz Agency: cyberdogzmarketing.com Mike Brevik: mike@cyberdogzmarketing.com KEYWORDS brand crisis management, crisis PR, brand depth, Bud Light boycott, Abercrombie and Fitch turnaround, American Eagle Sydney Sweeney, apology trap, cancel culture and brands, brand loyalty, crisis communication, brand authenticity, Fran Horowitz, brand positioning, marketing crisis, consumer boycott, brand reputation, Mike Brevik, Brand Retro, Cyberdogz, brand strategy EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS [00:03:27 - 00:04:29] Mike explains why Bud Light's real mistake wasn't the partnership, it was panicking afterward and acting like the accusation was true. [00:04:45 - 00:05:14] The psychology of the apology trap: an audience's brain uses confidence as a credibility signal, and retreat reads as confirmation of guilt. [00:06:02 - 00:07:00] Abercrombie and Fitch in 2016 was ranked the most hated retail brand in America, with a CEO on record saying certain customers weren't welcome. [00:07:00 - 00:08:00] Fran Horowitz's actual strategy: no apology campaign, no rebrand, just seven years of quietly changing every product, store, and hiring practice that was wrong. [00:08:40 - 00:09:15] American Eagle's Sydney Sweeney campaign draws massive backlash, and the brand does not apologize, retreat, or clarify. [00:09:15 - 00:09:50] Sydney Sweeney rings the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange with American Eagle leadership, turning the controversy into the campaign. [00:09:50 - 00:10:30] The throughline across all three brands: the ones that survive cancellation are not the ones with better crisis PR, they're the ones with brand depth built beforehand. [00:11:05 - 00:11:45] Mike's closing task: ask your brand right now what it would stand on if it got boycotted tomorrow, and treat the answer as this week's real work.

In this episode of the CLO Investor Podcast, Shiloh Bates sits down with Chris Gilbert, Co-Head of Securitized Products at Natixis, to explore how CLO debt tranches are rated and examine proposed methodology changes from Fitch and Moody's. The discussion breaks down the mechanics behind CLO ratings, the potential impact of updated rating criteria on CLO investors and issuers, and how regulatory developments such as NAIC capital rules may influence demand across different parts of the CLO capital structure.

One asset, three routes to capital. In part one, Scott Zuchorski and Monsur Hussain unpack Fitch's latest report on how corporate, project, and structured finance are converging to meet a US$106 trillion global infrastructure need by 2040 and beyond.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is trying to offload a billion dollars in city-owned debt — and he can't find anyone to take it. Only two banks responded to the city's request for proposals, Bank of America walked, and the whole scheme is now putting $90 million in Chicago's 2026 budget in serious jeopardy. The collateral? Unpaid tickets. The pitch? "Trust us." The response from Wall Street? Hard pass.This is what happens when a progressive mayor runs a major city like a campaign promise instead of a balance sheet. Fitch downgraded Chicago's credit rating, the city council approved the debt sale over Johnson's own objections, and aldermen are now accusing each other over who cooked up this mess. Sean walks through the Fitch downgrade details, the structural deficit driving it, and what it tells you about the difference between cities that tax-and-spend their way into a corner versus states like Texas that are running surpluses.The kicker: Chicago's structural problem isn't a revenue problem — it's an expenses-exceed-revenue-every-single-year problem that one-time pandemic relief papered over for a few years. Now that the Fauci money is gone, the bill is due and the banks aren't interested.Subscribe to @reasonablenews for daily coverage of the stories the mainstream press buries.#NFRP #Chicago #BrandonJohnsonGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS

Once you have learned the fundamentals of Infinite Banking and decided to put it into action, one question tends to surface almost immediately: What is the best whole life insurance company for Infinite Banking? It is a good question. The carrier you choose forms a long-term relationship, one that stays in place for the rest of your life if you keep the policy in force. https://youtu.be/QzNg3h_7tcI So let's be upfront: this article will not hand you a ranked list of the best dividend paying whole life insurance companies by name. Public comparisons between named carriers are riddled with the bias of whoever is doing the comparing, and ranking companies without knowing what you are trying to accomplish is the wrong way to do it. What you will get instead is more durable than any ranked list: the criteria to evaluate any carrier with confidence, on your own terms. Table of ContentsWhy the Whole Life Insurance Company You Choose Matters for Infinite BankingHow to Choose a Whole Life Insurance Company: The Criteria That Actually MatterCriterion 1: It Must Be a Mutual CompanyCriterion 2: Dividend History, Not Today's Dividend RateCriterion 3: Financial Strength Ratings, Used CorrectlyCriterion 4: Ease of Doing Business and Alignment With Infinite BankingThe Right Way to Compare Whole Life Insurance CompaniesWhy Working With an Infinite Banking Practitioner Changes the DecisionChoosing the Right Company Is About Fit, Not RankingsFrequently Asked QuestionsHow do I choose the best whole life insurance company for Infinite Banking?What makes a whole life insurance company good for cash value?Why doesn't The Money Advantage rank specific whole life insurance companies?Does the company have to be a mutual company?Is a mutual holding company a bad sign?Should I pick the company with the highest dividend rate?How important are financial ratings when choosing a carrier?What is the right way to compare whole life insurance companies?Does the company matter more than my own behavior? Key takeaways: This is a decades-long relationship, not a one-time purchase Look past surface numbers like illustration projections and ratings alone Four criteria matter most: mutual structure, dividend history, ratings used correctly, and ease of doing business, plus alignment Compare carriers by stress testing them, not racing their illustrations A knowledgeable practitioner adds real value on top of these criteria Why the Whole Life Insurance Company You Choose Matters for Infinite Banking With term insurance, the company mainly needs to be solvent enough to pay a claim someday. Whole life insurance built for Infinite Banking is different. You are storing capital and using the cash value throughout your life. The death benefit may not be paid for decades. If the insured survives to the policy's contractual maturity age (often age 120 or 121), the policy endows, and the value is paid to the owner. That makes this one of the most consequential financial choices you will make. It is easy to judge a company by what is easiest to see: a bigger illustration number, a higher rating than the next carrier on the list. But those numbers are effects, not causes. They are the visible result of internal factors most people never think to check. It is a bit like judging character by appearance. You are only seeing half the picture. What actually matters is whether a company can weather economic cycles and stretches of low interest rates across the entire span of your policy, not whether it looks strong today or even over the next ten years. One more thing worth sitting with: among solid, well-established mutual carriers, the differences that matter to your outcome are often smaller than people assume. Your own behavior, how consistently you fund the policy, and how you use it, tends to shape your results more than which specific company issued the contract. How to Choose a Whole Life Insurance Company: The Criteria That Actually Matter Here is how to evaluate the internal qualities that drive long-term performance. Criterion 1: It Must Be a Mutual Company This filter is non-negotiable. A mutual company, or a mutual holding company, is owned by its policyholders. When it performs well, profits are distributed back through dividends. A stock company works differently: its primary beneficiaries are stockholders, and sharing in that upside would mean owning the stock itself, not just holding a policy. For Infinite Banking, you want to be an owner. Dividends grow your cash value beyond the guaranteed rate and fund paid-up additions, which pushes the death benefit further ahead of the cash value. Because the two are designed to meet around age 120 or 121, dividends are built to compound larger over time. Do not let the word "holding" throw you off. The nuance between a mutual company and a mutual holding company matters less than you would think. What is worth knowing here is why a mutual converts in the first place. It is usually about raising capital, sometimes under regulatory pressure, but often simply to fund better systems through a merger. The better question is not whether a company converted, but why. Criterion 2: Dividend History, Not Today's Dividend Rate Resist comparing two illustrations and picking whichever shows the higher declared rate. Rates shift year to year, and the same stated rate does not mean the same thing at two companies, since how a dividend is credited to your policy is proprietary information that varies by carrier. What deserves your attention is the track record. Has the company paid dividends with discipline through the Great Recession and other hard times? The large, established mutuals in this space have paid dividends for well over 125 years, and many have never missed a payment. Resist chasing whichever company posted the single highest dividend in its history, too. A one-year spike can be propped up by other business lines entirely unrelated to your policy. What you want is stability: a company that avoids wild swings in either direction, a sign of disciplined management built to sustain performance long term. A quick aside on bonds, since this trips people up. When interest rates rise, the market value of existing long-dated bonds falls. That is real, but only if those bonds are sold. A well-run insurer simply keeps collecting the yield and lets them mature at par. Insurers manage across a hundred-year horizon, not daily headlines, which is exactly the consistency you are trying to identify. Criterion 3: Financial Strength Ratings, Used Correctly Agencies like AM Best, Fitch, and Moody's, along with composite scores like Comdex, offer an objective read on financial strength. As a rule of thumb, look for carriers in the top ten of these systems, ideally the top five. Do not stop at the letter grade. Look at the trajectory. Is the company's capital-to-asset ratio strong and improving? That signals its ability to weather economic turmoil across the full life of your policy, not just hold up well in calm markets. Criterion 4: Ease of Doing Business and Alignment With Infinite Banking This is the most overlooked criterion. A carrier can have excellent ratings and an attractive illustration and still be difficult to work with. Every insurer must allow policy loans by law, but not every insurer makes that process easy. A company with more of an accumulation mindset may be slower to process loans, harder to reach, or saddled with a clunky portal. Some carriers publish service metrics, like the percentage of calls answered within a set time, and those are worth checking. Alongside ease of doing business sits philosophical alignment. Does this carrier actively support the Infinite Banking community, or merely tolerate it? Carriers vary a lot on paid-up additions flexibility: how much you can skip in a given year, and how much you can catch up later if life gets in the way. That flexibility is worth understanding before you commit to a design. The Right Way to Compare Whole Life Insurance Companies It is tempting to pull up two illustrations and pick whichever shows the bigger number. Resist it, since chasing the higher dividend rate this way tends to mislead more than it helps. The one certainty about any illustration is that it will end up being wrong. The non-guaranteed portion extrapolates today's dividend rate forward as if it will never change. It will change. The guaranteed portion shows what would happen with zero dividends ever paid, which is not realistic for a carrier with a century-plus history of paying them. Neither column is where you will actually land. A better approach is to stress test the policy instead. What happens if dividends drop for a few years? If you miss a premium? If you skip paid-up additions for two or three years and then resume? These "life happens" questions reveal more about how a policy will perform for you than any projected number ever could, and notice how much of this still comes back to your own behavior. Why Working With an Infinite Banking Practitioner Changes the Decision Everything above is something you can evaluate on your own. That is the point. But there is real value in working alongside someone who knows this terrain well. A knowledgeable practitioner typically works with a modest number of carriers, often four to six, understanding a handful deeply rather than spreading thin. That depth matters because the nuances between carriers are hard to master at scale. A good practitioner also tends to have real relationships within these companies, which can occasionally open doors that would otherwise stay closed. The goal is not just picking a company. It is matching the right company, policy design, and professional guidance to your situation. Choosing the Right Company Is About Fit, Not Rankings ...

Corina was literally born into midwifery. She came into the world in an old school bus on The Farm — the legendary intentional community in Tennessee founded by Stephen Gaskin and Ina May Gaskin — and grew up surrounded by communal living, the absence of money, and birth as an ordinary, community experience. After years of practicing midwifery across six countries, raising three daughters as a single mother, navigating a nine-year mental health journey, and returning to The Farm as part of a new generation of midwives, she has arrived at something extraordinary: a framework for motherhood that she believes could change everything.This episode is for every midwife who has ever burned out, every mother who has lost herself, and everyone who believes birth work is about so much more than catching babies.In this episode we cover:Growing up on The Farm — communal living, kid herds, no money, and birth as a normal community eventLeaving The Farm at 10, landing in Hollywood Florida, and the culture shock of the "real world"Her first birth on her 21st birthday — and three months apprenticing with Ina May and the Farm midwives that summerGetting licensed in 1999, practicing in Florida, taking students to Honduras, and attending births across six countriesBecoming a mother as a midwife — and how her first postpartum experience shattered every expectation she hadA nine-year mental health journey including depression, anxiety, and eventually a bipolar diagnosis — and the shame of suffering in silence as "the one who knows"The vision for Motherfly — a new archetype for motherhood rooted in self-compassion, creativity, and community rather than martyrdom and supermom mythologyWhat matrescence is, why it matters, and why it should be a household wordReturning to The Farm in 2020 — driving through the Confederate-flag South with her Black daughters, the financial relief, and the racial reckoning of arriving in a predominantly white communityThe onboarding meeting that became a confrontation — and the "Midwives for Black Lives" sign that nobody would respond toHolding Ina May's legacy with nuance — the good, the harm, and the missed opportunityFounding Community Birth and Wellness with three other midwives — and the spontaneous passing of the torch at the Sanctuary SummitThe Motherfly nine-month group coaching container, the Matrescent Circle, and what's coming nextWhy our culture does a so-so job birthing babies and a terrible job birthing mothersResources & Links:

In this episode of The Sword of Truth Podcast, we tackle Chapter 63 of Soul of the Fire, where Beata's brief, power-trip taste of "authoriti" at the Dirtch goes completely pear-shaped. We watch the chaos that unfolds when a terrified Fitch swaggers in with the stolen Sword of Truth, followed closely by Cara. The tension spikes to Mortal Kombat fatality level when Beata stubbornly rejects Cara's urgent warnings to flee from three Imperial Order troops, resulting in Corporal Marie Faval being sliced clean in half and Beata's squad launching into a desperate, chaotic battle. Pour yourself a cold one and join the crew for a hilariously brutal breakdown of the day the world turned truly mad.Connect with us!Write in your journey books to podcastatt@gmail.comFind us on any of our social meads!Facebook.com/PodcastATTInstagram.com/PodcastATTPatreon - Support the podcast directly and hear exclusive content at Patreon.com/PodcastATT, where every tier is a happy tear!See ya real soon!

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour with Andy Riesmeyer Hour 3 (7.23) Andy’s in-studio guest is KTLA entertainment producer Christine Samra, who starts her day at 5 a.m. working alongside Andy on TV and is also a highly experienced traffic reporter — a true woman of many talents. She was thrilled to have Lou Diamond Phillips at the station today. Christine half-jokingly calls herself the “personality hire” at KTLA (we’re fine with it), and she and Andy dig into their chat with Phillips, who looked back on filming the ’80s Western classic Young Guns with Emilio Estevez, Kiefer Sutherland, Charlie Sheen, and Dermot Mulroney. Traffic experts Angel Martinez and Christine compare notes on the trickiest spots in LA for live traffic reports. In other news, stores like Sephora are turning the music down — not because of older shoppers, but because younger, often neurodivergent customers are asking for less sensory overload. Andy takes a quick trip down memory lane to his Abercrombie & Fitch days and takes a few shots at podcast stereotypes. And the latest homeless count in Los Angeles is up about 3.4%, back to 2024 levels, despite tens of millions spent — Mayor Karen Bass is pointing the finger at the Trump administration.
