Today's Headlines: The Supreme Court is taking up a case that could overturn its 2015 Obergefell decision legalizing same-sex marriage — courtesy of Kim Davis, the Kentucky clerk jailed for refusing gay marriage licenses. She's appealing a $360K judgment, claiming First Amendment protection and arguing marriage equality was wrongly decided. Meanwhile, the White House plans to audit the Smithsonian to make sure exhibits fit Trump's “unifying” version of American history — which critics say means erasing inconvenient facts. Harvard is reportedly near a $500M settlement with the Trump administration to end multiple investigations, restore research funding, and avoid federal oversight — while maintaining its admissions independence. Trump mocked Goldman Sachs' chief economist after tariff warnings, telling the CEO (a hobbyist DJ) to “focus on being a DJ.” He also nominated Heritage Foundation economist EJ Antoni to lead the Bureau of Labor Statistics after firing the last commissioner over jobs numbers. An Israeli strike killed Al Jazeera correspondent Anas al-Sharif, four colleagues, and two others; Israel claims he was a Hamas operative. And convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has been moved to a cushier prison with possible work release.

Recently, President Donald Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics after revisions depicted a weaker job market than initially thought. This week, Trump called on the CEO of Goldman Sachs to get rid of his chief economist, after the economist predicted that tariffs would force consumers to pay extra. What should consumers and investors make of this? We'll discuss. And later, we'll hear how French factories are benefiting from increased defense spending.

A surge in interest rate cut optimism sends stocks to all-time highs, but stock futures are struggling to keep the momentum alive. Plus, first it was Jay Powell — now President Trump sets his sights on one Goldman Sachs economist and frequent guest here on CNBC. Goldman remains silent on the allegations. And later, a fast-casual collapse has shares of Cava, Starbucks, McDonald's, and more sinking.

Principles of Bitcoin presents a holistic, first-principles-based framework for understanding one of the most misunderstood inventions of our time. By stripping away the hype, jargon, and superficial analysis that often surrounds the crypto industry, this book uncovers the true ingenuity behind Satoshi Nakamoto's creation—and its profound implications for the future of money, governance, and individual freedom. Vijay Selvam analyzes the technology, economics, politics, and philosophy of Bitcoin, making the case that only through this holistic understanding can we gain an appreciation of its true meaning and significance.

Students, curious thinkers, and all who find the technology daunting will also benefit from its clear, foundational approach. Equipping readers with the tools to grasp the many facets of Bitcoin, this book is an ideal guide to exploring its role in shaping a more decentralized, transparent, and equitable future.

 En el episodio de hoy de VG Daily, Eugenio Garibay y Andre Dos Santos analizan dos frentes críticos en la disputa económica y tecnológica entre Estados Unidos y China. Primero, el inédito acuerdo mediante el cual Nvidia y AMD entregarán el 15 % de sus ingresos por ventas de chips de inteligencia artificial en China al gobierno estadounidense, una medida que combina control de exportaciones con recaudación directa y que ya genera tensiones en Pekín, donde autoridades investigan si estos procesadores cumplen con las normativas de seguridad o incorporan mecanismos ocultos para espiar o desactivar equipos. Después, se adentran en el más reciente análisis de Goldman Sachs sobre los aranceles: las empresas estadounidenses están absorbiendo dos tercios de los costos, replicando un patrón que ya vimos en la guerra comercial de 2018, cuando los consumidores terminaron pagando la mayor parte de la factura. Un episodio que conecta la política industrial, la estrategia comercial y el impacto real en márgenes corporativos y bolsillos de los consumidores.

One of the things I am most proud of is the way in business I have had to reinvent my self over the past 45 years of my career. I think this is a skill that serves entrepreneurs well.Carmen Van Kerckhove is an author and keynote speaker whose work explores how technology, social class, and cultural change are reshaping the way we live and work. Her upcoming book, "The Slingshot Effect", makes the case that pulling back—professionally, financially, creatively—isn't failure, but often the smartest way to move forward. Carmen's career is built on bold reinvention and small business roots.After starting at Goldman Sachs, she took a surprising step back—becoming an office manager—to create space for her first major pivot into writing. Her blog on race and pop culture, Racialicious, gained national attention and made her a sought-after speaker. From there, she co-founded a karate school in Brooklyn, then launched a family travel brand that grew into a multiple six-figure content business with over a million followers and major brand partnerships.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-small-business-radio-show--3306444/support.

Don and Tom open the show with a lighthearted reminder that money doesn't sleep—so neither do they. They dive into a New York Times article featuring Goldman Sachs researchers who identify five patterns that influence retirement accounts and market behavior. The duo emphasizes that while market predictions are near-impossible, understanding these patterns can inform better investor behavior—particularly the value of diversification. Listener questions cover whether you still need a financial advisor with a $2 million DIY retirement portfolio, the logic behind using a Roth as an emergency fund, tax-efficient asset liquidation, and Washington State's retirement target-date fund asset mix.

Greg Selkoe has a storied history as a trailblazer in modern entrepreneurial ventures. As co-founder and CEO of XSET, Greg leads the company's vision of creating a gaming lifestyle brand and media company that redefines the digital landscape, connecting with the physical world. Under Greg, XSET seeks to lead a new youth culture through the connective tissue of gaming. Committed to inclusivity, innovation, and constantly evolving with culture (music, art, sports, fashion, etc.) and those who are at the vanguard of it, XSET's foundation is built on dynamic storytelling, fostering community, and empowering cultural leaders. Prior to XSET, Greg served as Co-Owner and the first President of FaZe Clan, where his strategic vision and leadership propelled the company from $0 to an impressive $36 million in annual revenue in 2 years, culminating in a personal financial exit at the peak valuation of FaZe Clan at $400m in 2020. His journey began by revolutionizing the e-commerce landscape with the founding of Karmaloop, a venture he nurtured from a fledgling startup into a streetwear retail titan, amassing over $1 billion in lifetime revenue under his tenure as CEO. Working with Pharrell Williams (Karmaloop Creative Director) and launching 2 other sub-sites, the Kazbah & PLNDR, which each did over $30M annually at their peak and the first YouTube channel launched by a retailer, KarmaloopTV. Karmaloop is 24 years old and still operating. Passionate about bridging socioeconomic gaps, Selkoe had a self-funded non-profit for 5 years called the FBA, run by Malia Lazu (former head of the Harry Belafonte Family Foundation) focused on diminishing the digital divide and fostering entrepreneurship in underserved communities. He is now launching the XSET Foundation, a new 501c3 organization where Selkoe aims to leverage the influential power of gaming and lifestyle to create inclusive opportunities and empower communities, integrating his business acumen with a strong sense of corporate social responsibility. A Harvard University M.P.P. graduate and 2016 Y Combinator alum, Selkoe has been honored as Ernst & Young's Entrepreneur of the Year in 2012, recognized as one of Goldman Sachs' 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs, and included in the Summit Series Top 35 Entrepreneurs under 35 with an invitation to the White House.

BIO: Pieter Slegers is the founder of Compounding Quality Newsletter. Pieter worked for three years as a Belgian asset manager before focusing full-time on his investment newsletter, Compounding Quality, in July 2022. Compounding Quality has over 1 million followers across social media and nearly 500,000 email subscribers. The goal of the newsletter is to help other investors by focusing on Quality Investing.STORY: At the age of 13, Peter convinced his parents to open a brokerage account. He picked the broker's newest “hottest pick” stock—an oil/gas transport company. He invested everything, thinking the people running the company knew what they were doing. Weeks later, the 2008 financial crisis hit. Peter sold his stock after a year, taking a 60% loss.LEARNING: Small losses are better than catastrophic ones. Knowledge is your only edge. “People who invest in individual stocks will make mistakes. There's no doubt about that, but it's way better to make a mistake with a few hundred dollars compared to $100,000.”Pieter Slegers Guest profilePieter Slegers is the founder of Compounding Quality Newsletter. Pieter studied Financial Management at the KULeuven and graduated summa cum laude. He worked for three years as a Belgian asset manager before focusing full-time on his investment newsletter, Compounding Quality, in July 2022. Compounding Quality has over 1 million followers across social media and nearly 500,000 email subscribers. The goal of the newsletter is to help other investors by focusing on Quality Investing.Worst investment everAt the age of 13, Peter earned his first paycheck by stocking shelves at a supermarket. Eager to grow his savings, he persuaded his parents to open a brokerage account (a feat for minors in Belgium).Despite his lack of investing knowledge, he diligently explored his broker's platform for ideas. A new stock caught his eye on the broker's “hot picks” list—an oil/gas transport company. He invested all his earnings, believing in the company's potential.Peter didn't conduct any research, despite his limited knowledge of oil and gas and his complete lack of investing experience. He simply trusted the “hot pick”.The crashWeeks later, the 2008 financial crisis hit. Peter sold his stock after a year, taking a 60% loss. His family was not impressed by his poor investment skills and told him that investing was akin to gambling, and he should consider working for the government instead.Pieter felt like such a failure. However, that $300 loss was his best investment. It hurt, but it taught him never to follow others blindly.Lessons learnedSmall losses are better than catastrophic ones. Losing $300 at the age of 13 beats losing $300,000 when you're 40. Early pain builds immunity to big mistakes.Knowledge is your only edge: If you don't understand how a company makes money, you're gambling, not investing.Failure fuels obsession. That loss made Pieter devour investing books, 10-Ks, and financial news. Pain became his mentor.Andrew's takeawaysAllow young investors to make mistakes with small sums (e.g., companies they understand, such as Netflix or Coca-Cola).Humility beats hubris. 90% of professional investors at Goldman Sachs underperform. What makes you different? It's your checklists, not confidence.Read biographies, study market history, and connect patterns. Wisdom compounds like interest.Actionable...

Organizations and leaders representing the interests of statistical professionals and public data access strongly criticized President Donald Trump's order to fire the leader of the Bureau of Labor Statistics after lower than expected jobs numbers Friday, saying his comments undermine public trust in that information. Their responses came after Trump posted on his social media site Friday afternoon with allegations that Commissioner Erika McEntarfer “faked” BLS statistics in an effort to help Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election, pointing to instances of revisions — which are a standard part of the agency's process. Trump's comments and order to fire McEntarfer appeared to primarily be in response to a BLS jobs report that showed lower figures than anticipated, which sent shockwaves through the statistical community. Multiple leaders, including his own former BLS commissioner, spoke out against the action in no uncertain terms, saying the president's comments politicize the data. President Donald Trump has nominated Edward Forst, a longtime financial services executive, to serve as the next administrator of the General Services Administration. The nomination was received in the Senate and referred to the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on Thursday, congressional records show. According to his LinkedIn profile, Forst was most recently the chairman of Lion Capital, a private equity firm, and previously served as president and CEO of Cushman and Wakefield, a real estate services firm. Earlier in his career, Forst spent nearly 17 years at Goldman Sachs, and in 2008, he served as an adviser to the Treasury secretary for a year, per his LinkedIn. The nomination follows various staff shakeups at GSA and comes just weeks after Trump tapped State Department leader Michael Rigas to serve as GSA's acting administrator.

Universal Market Access (UMA) was founded by 2 ex Goldman Sachs traders that wanted to make global markets universally accessible through financial smart contracts that used synthetic assets on Ethereum. However, this was taking place long before the massive boom of DeFi summer of 2020. As a result, UMA shifted to building an optimistic oracle to power prediction markets as a decentralised ‘truth machine', thus expanding oracle use cases. Through game theoretic models, UMA managed to properly incentivise its token holders to act as voters, rewarding them for good predictions & disputes, and vice versa. Later on, Hart Lambur also co-founded Across, an intent-based optimistic bridge that set out to create a seamless UX for unifying EVM chains. Through their solver network, Across managed to achieve fast (as low as 2 seconds) and cheap bridging, abstracting away crosschain complexities, without any security tradeoffs.Topics covered in this episode:Hart's backgroundUniversal Market Access, from synthetic assets to oraclesBuilding AcrossUMA's optimistic oracleIncentivizing voters & resolving disputesDealing with invalid outcomesOptimistic security assumptionsUMA x Across dual token interactionsAcross' intent-based bridgePricing mechanism & solver competitionZK settlementBridging fragmentationAbstracting & unifying cross-chain bridgingBridging between rollupsUMA & Across governance systemsEpisode links:Hart Lambur on XAcross Protocol on XUMA Protocol on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.
