This episode is sponsored by Manulife Investment Management and first appeared on The PERE Podcast As new industries evolve and accelerate, new opportunities are constantly arising for institutional investors in the private real assets space. It isn't always easy, however, for managers to grasp hold of these opportunities. As assets like data centers have become investable in recent years, managers have found that they need to devote time and effort to understand the dynamics around these unfamiliar assets. And the private markets industry has occasionally been guilty of obsessing over which labels to apply to emerging assets. This is the first episode of our Private Markets 2030 podcast miniseries, part of PEI Group's wider initiative exploring how private markets are evolving as we enter the decade's second half. Across the series, we unpack how managers can adapt, attract capital and deliver performance in an increasingly complex market. Joining us are three guests from Manulife Investment Management: Erin Patterson, global co-head of research and strategy; Maggie Coleman, the firm's chief investment officer for real estate equity and co-head of global portfolio management; and John Anderson, global head of corporate finance and infrastructure. They discuss how multi-product managers have an advantage in expanding into new opportunity sets and argue that a multi-product approach offers obvious benefits around diversification, while allowing managers the flexibility to pivot into new opportunity sets.

Vancouver-based Educational Opportunities for Children and Families serves more than 400 participants enrolled in Head Start. The free federal program provides child care, early learning, nutrition and health screenings for low-income children and their families. Nearly 300 children in Southwest Washington either lost access to their Head Start programs or had their hours cut back on Nov. 1 because of the government shutdown, which ended on Wednesday evening.    On Monday, EOCF’s board of directors and its parent policy council voted to approve accepting a private donation to replenish the nonprofit’s savings it had been using to keep open three Head Start centers in Vancouver for families with the highest needs. EOCF has now reopened its Head Start center in Yacolt, four centers in Vancouver and restored program hours cut at five other centers. The donation has also helped EOCF to bring back more than 90 employees who were partially or fully furloughed on Nov. 1 when it didn’t get its scheduled federal funding.  EOCF CEO Rekah Strong says it could take weeks before its grant funding resumes because of the backlog in grant applications from other Head Start providers across the nation who also had to cut services during the shutdown. She joins us to share the struggles her organization has recently faced, along with Chantel Martin, a Head Start parent whose 5-year-old daughter attends the reopened EOCF center in Yacolt.

La Chambre des représentants américaine doit se prononcer ce mercredi sur un texte de financement qui pourrait mettre fin au plus long « shutdown » de l'histoire du pays. Si le déblocage politique semble à portée de main, l'impact économique, lui, est déjà lourd avec plus de 10 milliards de dollars de pertes de production, une croissance ralentie et une confiance mise à rude épreuve. Depuis plus de six semaines, l'État fédéral américain fonctionne au ralenti. Faute d'accord entre la Maison Blanche et le Congrès sur le budget 2026, une grande partie des administrations, agences et programmes publics sont à l'arrêt. Le Congressional Budget Office (CBO), organe indépendant du Congrès, a livré une première estimation : l'économie américaine pourrait perdre entre 7 et 14 milliards de dollars de production, soit un peu plus de 10 milliards selon les projections médianes. Sur le trimestre d'automne – octobre, novembre, décembre –, le cabinet EY-Parthenon évalue déjà la perte de croissance à 0,8 point de pourcentage ; un chiffre qui peut sembler faible, mais qui représente des dizaines de milliards de dollars d'activité économique en moins. Ce shutdown est désormais le plus long de l'histoire américaine, dépassant celui de 2019 sous Donald Trump. Et contrairement aux précédentes fermetures temporaires, celui-ci intervient dans un contexte économique déjà tendu : croissance molle, inflation persistante et confiance des consommateurs affaiblie. Fonctionnaires, entreprises, ménages : une économie au ralenti Derrière ces chiffres se cachent des réalités très concrètes. Plus de 750 000 fonctionnaires fédéraux ont été placés en congé forcé ou continuent de travailler sans rémunération. Leur pouvoir d'achat s'effondre avec des conséquences directes sur la consommation locale. Dans les zones dans lesquelles les emplois publics sont nombreux — Washington, Virginie, Maryland — les commerces, restaurants et services de proximité voient leur chiffre d'affaires chuter. Les contrats publics sont, eux aussi, suspendus, touchant des milliers d'entreprises privées qui dépendent des commandes de l'État. Pour certaines petites sociétés sous-traitantes, la trésorerie est déjà exsangue : les paiements gelés mettent en péril des emplois et freinent la reprise de l'investissement. Les programmes sociaux sont également frappés de plein fouet. Les retards de versement d'allocations, notamment du programme d'aide alimentaire SNAP, pénalisent les ménages les plus modestes. Pour des millions d'Américains, cela signifie moins de dépenses dans les supermarchés, donc une baisse de la demande. Le programme Head Start, qui soutient la scolarisation des jeunes enfants, a dû fermer plusieurs centres, empêchant certains parents de travailler. Enfin, la publication de nombreux indicateurs économiques a été suspendue pendant la fermeture, faute de personnel. Or ces statistiques – emploi, inflation, production industrielle – servent de boussole aux entreprises, aux marchés financiers et à la Réserve fédérale. Sans ces données, les investisseurs naviguent à vue. Résultat : un climat d'incertitude budgétaire et institutionnelle qui pèse sur la confiance et complique les décisions économiques. Des pertes en partie irrattrapables, malgré une reprise attendue Si le vote de ce mercredi met effectivement fin au blocage, la reprise de l'activité devrait être rapide dans la plupart des agences fédérales. Les fonctionnaires seront payés rétroactivement, les contrats réactivés et les programmes sociaux relancés. Mais, préviennent les économistes, toutes les pertes ne seront pas compensées. Le CBO estime qu'une partie de la production disparue — entre 7 et 14 milliards de dollars — ne sera jamais récupérée, notamment à cause de la baisse de productivité, de la perte de confiance et des retards administratifs qui freinent durablement les investissements. Chaque jour supplémentaire de fermeture creuse davantage le manque à gagner. Au-delà de 40 jours, le blocage pourrait amputer la croissance annuelle américaine de près de 2 points sur le trimestre, selon plusieurs instituts. « Même si l'administration rouvre demain, le mal est fait », résume un économiste d'EY. Une économie fragilisée sur fond de tensions politiques Ce shutdown intervient à un moment délicat pour les États-Unis. L'économie reste solide en apparence, mais les fondamentaux se dégradent : croissance molle, taux d'épargne en baisse, inflation qui résiste autour de 3 %. Pour de nombreux Américains, cette paralysie est un révélateur des fragilités structurelles du pays : une dépendance croissante aux dépenses fédérales, une instabilité politique chronique et un fossé entre les élus de Washington et le quotidien des ménages. Même si les aéroports rouvrent, les salaires sont versés et les aides sociales reprennent, les séquelles économiques et sociales resteront visibles plusieurs semaines, voire plusieurs mois. Les retards de paiement s'accumulent, les entreprises devront reconstituer leurs stocks, et les ménages endettés peineront à retrouver un équilibre. Le vote attendu ce mercredi pourrait donc ramener le fonctionnement de l'État à la normale, mais il ne suffira pas à effacer les dégâts. Ce shutdown historique restera comme un signal d'alarme : celui d'une économie américaine capable de s'affaiblir de l'intérieur, non pas à cause d'un choc extérieur, mais à force de blocages politiques répétés.

*Senate Committee on Appropriations News Release: November 9, 2025* Washington, D.C. – Senator Susan Collins, Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, delivered remarks from the Senator floor ahead of the Senate's 60 to 40 procedural vote to advance legislation she unveiled today containing a clean continuing resolution to reopen government & three full-year Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 appropriations bills. The continuing resolution will reopen government immediately, extend funding through January 30th, & provide back pay to all federal workers. It does not include any poison pills. The measure includes the final FY 2026 Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, & Related Agencies; Agriculture, Rural Development, Food & Drug Administration, & Related Agencies; & Legislative Branch appropriations bills. This three-bill package, which originally passed the Senate on August 1st with overwhelming bipartisan support, would make full-year appropriations available for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, & Children (WIC), & the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. “Mr. President, today the Senate Appropriations Committee advanced legislation to reopen government immediately, funding vital programs, & resuming pay for federal workers, who for the last 40 days have had to live with the stress of missed paychecks & not knowing when they would be paid. “Under our legislation, all federal employees, including members of our military & Coast Guard, Capitol Police officers, Border Patrol agents, TSA screeners, air traffic controllers – all will receive their back wages. “It is significant that this measure also includes three full-year Fiscal Year 2026 appropriations bills, including the annual Agriculture, FDA bill, the Military Construction & Veterans Affairs legislation – very timely given that Veterans Day will soon be upon us – & the Legislative Branch funding bill. “This three-bill package, which originally passed the Senate on August 1st with overwhelming bipartisan support – 87 votes in two cases & 81 in another – will support our veterans, troops, farmers, & rural communities. Of note, this package will provide full-year funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, known as SNAP, & the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, & Children, known as WIC. One of the most unfortunate & shameful consequences of this shutdown has been that these vital nutrition programs were in jeopardy for our most vulnerable families, including 170,000 Mainers who rely on the SNAP program. “Other programs will be funded through January 30th while the Senate & House continue work on the remainder of the year-long appropriations bills. For example, funding for important programs like Head Start & low-income heating assistance will now be restored. “I look forward to voting for this legislation & ending the unnecessary harm to the security of our families & our nation. “We must begin to act tonight. We must not delay any longer. “Finally, Mr. President, I want to thank the many members on both sides of the aisle of the Appropriations Committee & the Senate Leadership who have worked especially hard to bring this package together. & I would be remiss if I did not also thank our staff. My staff missed an entire night's sleep to get this package together & get the job done. “Thank you, Mr. President. Again, I want to particularly thank the members of the Appropriations Committee, including those who serve as the Subcommittee Chairs: Senator Boozman, Senator Hoeven, & Senator Mullin. I want to thank Senator Britt who did an extraordinary amount of work. Lisa Murkowski, Mike Rounds, Jerry Moran, Shelley Moore Capito, Cindy Hyde-Smith, Deb Fischer – there's so many who worked so hard on this package. I want to thank each & every one of them. “Let's get the job done & let's do it fast.”

Head Start is a federal program that provides child care and early learning for low-income families. But the ongoing government shutdown has caused some programs to close, while others are taking out loans. WWNO's education reporter Aubri Juhasz tells us what this looks like in Louisiana.Three property taxes will be on the ballot in Baton Rouge next week. They're all renewals, but they've been made a bit more complicated by a series of budget shortfalls, one of the largest reasons being the incorporation of breakaway city of St. George, a city that now collects its own property taxes. The tax renewal for the local library system has been getting the most attention, as it fights to keep its funding, while the city-parish aims to skim a little off the top.Report for America corps member Alex Cox helps break down the ballot. Every year for the past four decades, a ship has gone out into the Gulf with a crew of scientists on an expedition to measure how much oxygen is in the water. It's called the hypoxia cruise and it's put on by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. It's an integral component in measuring the “dead zone” to find out how much the lack of oxygen in the water caused by Mississippi River runoff is affecting marine life.Associate professor in LSU's department of oceanography and coastal sciences and chief scientist for NOAA's annual hypoxia cruise, Cassandra Glaspie, tells us more about the 40th voyage. ___Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos.

It's Day 36 of what's now the longest-ever partial government shutdown. Both parties have internal disagreements on next steps. SNAP beneficiaries face delays while some Head Start programs close. And the Supreme Court takes up Trump's tariffs. David Higgins has your CQ Morning Briefing for Wednesday, Nov. 5, 2025.

Former Vice President Dick Cheney has died at the age of 84, according to his family. The statement said his passing was “due to complications of pneumonia and cardiac and vascular disease.” Cheney served alongside Republican President George W. Bush for two terms, from 2001 to 2009. He is considered one of America's most powerful modern vice presidents, and the primary architect of America's ‘War on Terror.'Voters are heading to the polls as President Donald Trump urges voters to back independent candidate Andrew Cuomo for New York City mayor over Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani, who he called a “communist.” A new poll shows the race tightening, with Mamdani's lead shrinking as Cuomo gains late momentum. Meanwhile, Trump also made a last-minute push for GOP candidates in New Jersey and Virginia ahead of today's gubernatorial races, holding tele-rallies.The Trump administration will partially fund food stamps for November as the shutdown enters its second month. The USDA says about half the usual benefits will be paid using limited contingency funds. Meanwhile, Head Start programs are closing nationwide, leaving thousands of families without child care as the shutdown ties the record for the longest in U.S. history.

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.: [THE WASHINGTON POST] "Mr. Cheney supported tax cuts and defense spending increases, like nearly all Republicans, but he joined the rightmost wing in voting against a federal holiday honoring the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., as well as the Equal Rights Amendment, creation of the Education Department, a ban on armor-piercing bullets, and anti-apartheid sanctions on South Africa. He likewise opposed Head Start for preschool children, the Superfund Program for Toxic Waste Cleanup, the Clean Water Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, and the Endangered Species Act. The one exception to his otherwise blanket endorsement of hard-right culture war positions was his support, eventually, of gay marriage, apparently brought on strictly because one of his own daughters was a lesbian."

The ongoing federal shutdown means that some Head Start organizations have run out of money and are cutting services.

The Trump administration says it will restart SNAP food benefits for the nearly 42 million Americans that receive them, but that it will pay out only half the amount people normally get. A federal judge ruled that the government must continue funding Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits on an emergency basis after the food assistance program ran out of money this weekend. We get the latest from NPR's Jennifer Ludden. Then, as some Head Start early learning programs close across the country due to the government shutdown, we check in with how the community is coming together to keep doors open for a few hundred low-income children in Florida. Then, on Monday, International Criminal Court prosecutors at The Hague said they are collecting evidence of alleged mass killings and rapes in Sudan.

Neighboring Haiti and Cuba also reported damage and multiple fatalities from Hurricane Melissa. In the United States, the so-called shutdown has reached a full month with no end in sight. Federal employees have begun to miss paychecks, and critical services - like the Head Start program and air traffic control, anticipate crippling shortages and/or indefinite delays. Food banks around the continent are bracing for a massive influx of employed, malnourished citizens. And a black Maryland teen was detained at gunpoint after his school A.I. program erroneously categorized the male student's bag of Dorito's tortilla chips as a firearm.

It's hard to find a better example of seizing the means of production than our government seizing an equity stake in a company—which Trump keeps doing over and over again. And what do the diehard Republican capitalists have to say about all this socializing of the private sector? Nothing, of course. But they definitely were up in arms over Bill Kristol saying he'd probably vote for Mamdani if he still lived in NYC, and that voting for Cuomo was ridiculous. Plus, the crypto-based bribery of Trump and his family is flourishing, SNAP cuts and Head Start closures will have a big impact on rural areas, businesses have been trying to find ways to lower their tariff burden since Trump won last November, and the potential ties between recent layoffs and the AI arms race.

As the federal government shutdown extends to its fifth week, its impacts have become more widespread. Over one million federal workers are either on furlough or working unpaid. Most federal parks remain closed. Head Start programs are at risk of closure.

The federal government shutdown is now in its fourth week. Over 700,000 federal employees have been furloughed, with nearly as many continuing to work without pay, yet there are still no signs that an end to the shutdown is near. “Unlike past presidents, Mr. Trump appears to feel little urgency to strike a deal to reopen the government,” Luke Broadwater writes at The New York Times. “Instead, he has used the shutdown, which began Oct. 1, as an opportunity to further remake the federal bureaucracy and jettison programs he does not like, seizing on unorthodox budgetary maneuvers that some have called illegal.” In this episode, we speak with three furloughed federal employees about the harm government shutdowns cause working people, and we discuss why this shutdown is different.
