Deze aflevering duiken we in de bijzondere wereld van de grondstoffenmarkt. En de wilde bewegingen die handelaren maken. ING ziet de vraag naar complexe derivatenconstructies exploderen, nu bedrijven worstelen met margestortingen en extreme prijsschommelingen. We proberen in Jip & Janneke taal te kijken hoe ING precies scoort. Wat het betekent voor het aandeel. En: klan ING nóg meer geld verdienen met deze onrust? Ook hebben we het over SK Hynix. De maker van geheugenchips was even Samsung voorbij als meest waardevolle beursbedrijf van Zuid-Korea! Best knap, als je je bedenkt dat het bedrijf eerder nog bijna failliet ging. Verder staan we uitgebreid stil bij het overlijden van Alan Greenspan. De voormalig Fed-voorzitter die maar liefst 100 jaar is geworden. Je hoort waarom hij zo bejubeld werd, maar ook waardoor hij (aan het einde van zijn termijn) werd beschuldigd van de grootste financiële crisis ooit. Verder in dit beurstheater: Aalberts succesvol terug in de AEX Easyjet wijst overnamebod drie keer op rij af Aandeel van Alphabet dondert in elkaar SpaceX wordt wéér gedumpt op de beurs Keir Starmer stopt als premier, maar markten rustig Baas Nike gelooft in Nike, terwijl de rest dat niet echt doet Warren Buffett's lievelingetje ligt overhoop met de Amerikaanse belastingdienst Te gast: Stan Westerterp van Bond Capital Partners BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Je hoort hem ook in de BNR-podcast Moerdijk: dorp van de rekening. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

UT Martin Head Coach Jeremy Shulman joins the Slappin' Glass podcast for a deep dive into building a defensive system around conviction, trade-offs, and player fit.Shulman discusses the philosophy behind his unique defensive approach, including why his teams lean toward containment, switch heavily, borrow matchup-zone principles without playing zone, and still find ways to generate turnovers without relying on full-court pressure. He also details how he thinks about solving mismatches after switches, layering post coverage, recruiting for basketball IQ, and turning rotations and closeouts into a strength.In the “Start, Sub, or Sit” segment, Shulman breaks down attacking hedge coverage, including flipping the screen, RAM screens, and re-screens, before sharing broader thoughts on pick-and-roll offense, the power of the pass, and studying ideas that genuinely fit who you are as a coach.What you'll learn Why defensive identity has to begin with what a coach truly believes in  How Shulman blends man-to-man, switching, and matchup-zone principles  Why switching everything can reduce confusion against slips, ghosts, and misdirection  How UT Martin thinks about post mismatches, doubles, digs, and defensive layers  Why putting two on the ball can create steals without becoming a pressure team  How scouting, film, and player processing shape scramble defense and closeouts  Why trust is the hardest thing to build quickly in the current roster-building era  How agents and NIL have changed the way coaches think about buy-in  The teaching details behind flipping ball screens against hedge coverage  Why Shulman views pick-and-roll as a way to move the ball, not just create downhill scoringTo join coaches and championship winning staffs from the NBA to High School from over 70 different countries taking advantage of an SG Plus membership, visit HERE!

  As DNS is more widely used to distribute certificate information, proving ownership of a resource becomes more critical. The constant challenges required to prove resource ownership, however, increase delay in connecting or using a resource. DNS persists--as the name implies--creates a persistent connection between a resource and a certificate authority. Henry Birge-Lee, Michael Slaughter, and Shiloh Heurich join Russ and Tom to explain how this new record type works and it's importance to DNS.

Please note this is part 2 of Carla's interview. Today I am joined by Carla from our coven to talk about death, grief, poisonous plants, her craft and a whole lot more in this episode! This is part one as the interview was so long my software couldn't cope with the duration so I have released as a two parter. Carla Valentine is a qualified Senior Mortuary Technician, and is currently the human remains conservator at Barts Pathology Museum in London. Her career caring for the dead has spanned over 20 years. She is a writer and broadcaster, featuring on TV shows such as The Bone Detectives, Fatberg Autopsy and Ancient Unexplained Files, and has a podcast called Mortem on BBC Sounds. Her first book, Past Mortems, documents her career carrying out autopsies for a decade, and the follow up, The Language of Bones - out October 1st 2026 - is a deeper exploration of death practices and the human condition. She also penned Murder Isn't Easy: The Forensics of Agatha Christie, and her next book, Planted Evidence - all about gardens, graves and poisonous plants - will be published in 2028. Carla's career informs her craft and she incorporates death meditation (mortality salience) into her practice as well as the use of body fluids and bones. She runs a small goth gardening business called Morticulture and is obsessed with the dark side of horticulture and its history.

Institutional investors are taking a closer look at sports—not just as a passion project, but as a distinct and evolving asset class. In this episode of Market Pulse, Jason Wright, managing partner and head of investments for Project Level at Ariel Investments, joins Northern Trust's Grant Johnsey to explore the investment case for women's sports. Drawing on his experience as a former NFL executive and operator, Wright explains where he sees inefficiencies in the market, what's driving growth across teams and leagues, and how investors should think about sports within a diversified portfolio. The conversation covers the structural dynamics shaping the industry, from media rights and valuation gaps to the emergence of a new, underserved fan base. Wright also outlines how Project Level is approaching the space—investing not only in teams, but across the broader ecosystem supporting the future of women's sports.

Non‑U.S. Small Cap Equities Non‑U.S. small cap equities may provide diversification and growth potential but carry elevated risks. These include currency volatility (e.g., U.S. dollar strength reducing returns), higher volatility, and lower liquidity. These securities are more sensitive to local economic, political, and regulatory conditions and may underperform in certain market cycles. They may include lower-quality or unprofitable issuers and are more exposed to trade policy and geopolitical developments. Alternative Investments Alternative investments are not suitable for all investors. Hedge funds use leverage, derivatives, and short selling, which can amplify losses. These investments are typically illiquid, lack regular pricing transparency, and charge high fees that may reduce returns. Interests are not readily transferable, and a secondary market may not exist. Investors should also consider tax complexity and reduced regulatory oversight compared to mutual funds.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.theflyingfrisby.comThe S&P 500 is close to all-time highs, but it's looking wobbly. After magnificent runs, gold and silver are both washed out and trending lower.Bitcoin is all but dead and buried. Rates are rising the world over so you can forget about government bonds - that particular bull market is over. Oil and gas have turned down now Trump and Iran have their deal. Remind me what uranium is again? What to do? Sell? Buy? Take profits? Run? Hide? Risk on? Rotate? Hedge?Everyone everywhere is telling you to do something. There is an entire financial industry dedicated to persuading you that inactivity is irresponsible.Three years ago I proposed the opposite and launched the Dolce Far Niente portfolio - “the sweetness of doing nothing” portfolio.It was based around a simple notion. Do nothing. The sweet FA portfolio. Most of us have busy lives to live with jobs, businesses and families. Some of us even have hobbies. We do not have the time, inclination or temperament to be constantly monitoring markets and worrying. I don't know about you but I find the more decisions I make, the more bad decisions I make. The aim of the portfolio was to build a sensible allocation to the major themes of the coming decade, and then largely leave it alone.No fiddling. No panicking because of some thing you read on X that morning. Nothing.Different readers used different vehicles. When uranium went nuts, we reduced to 2.5%. I simplified the equity allocation, so the exact implementation evolved over time. What follows therefore is not an audited fund report, but an approximate check-in.The broad conclusion, however, is clear.If you live in a third world country such as the UK, I urge you to own gold or silver. The pound will be further devalued, as will the euro and dollar. The bullion dealer I use and recommend is The Pure Gold Company. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe. More here.Doing very little works surprisingly well.Depending on exactly how you measure it, the portfolio is up around 65-70%.Not bad for something specifically designed to reduce activity and thus stress.If by the way, you are investor starting out, this is the portfolio I recommend, and I recommend it way ahead of racy, smallcap stock tips, such as you sometimes read on here.So let's take a look at the portfolio, and let's see if any activity is required.The first lesson is that asset allocation remains far more important than stock selection. This is one of the basic truths that, it seems, one keeps having to re-learn.Doesn't matter which gold miner you own if gold miners are trending lower. Being on the right track matters more than backing the right horse.

Michael McFaul describes Vladimir Putin as an ideological risk-taker who views himself as a defender of "orthodox Christian values" against a threatening West. McFaul argues that previous US administrations failed to hedge against Russian aggression by not expanding NATO faster or providing sufficient weaponry to "gray zone" countries like Ukraine. This perceived lack of resolve may have emboldened Putin's 2022 full-scale invasion. Furthermore, the segment explores how autocracy is gaining global popularity, as some perceive it to be more efficient than the bureaucratic "veto points" often found in democratic systems. (5)1938

  Many companies rely on open source, regardless of whether or not they realize it. In this best of the Hedge episode, Alistair Woodman joins Russ White and Tom Ammon to talk about not only why you should support the open source projects you use, but how you can.   https://media.blubrry.com/hedge/content.blubrry.com/hedge/hedge-015.mp3 @nbsp; download $nbsp; Reposting a classic episode this week because I was out of town and didn't get around to editing an episode.

These New Betting Laws are already getting pushback after Massachusetts introduced a rule requiring sportsbooks to notify bettors when their accounts are limited and provide a reason. On paper, it's framed as transparency for consumers, but early reactions from bettors suggest it doesn't actually explain much—just a polished way of saying winning action isn't welcome. The debate has quickly turned into whether this is real protection for bettors or just another layer of messaging that changes nothing about how limits are applied. Also on today's show, the ongoing Haralabob vs Matt Kalish feud continues to escalate, with Haralabos Voulgaris challenging the consistency and fairness of industry narratives around prediction markets and sportsbook growth strategies. The discussion has spilled into broader questions about hypocrisy, market evolution, and how legacy betting companies justified their early expansion tactics. On top of that, hedge funds and trading firms like SIG are reportedly struggling to retain or recruit top-tier traders, as prediction markets and independent trading opportunities give sharp talent more freedom than ever before. On today's LIVE Circle Back, host Jacob Gramegna is joined by Porter of BA Analytics, pro sports bettor Chinamaniac, and sharp bettor Isaac Rose-Berman. The show goes live Thursdays at 4 PM ET on Circles Off, part of The Hammer Betting Network.

As the federal government continues to print more money, the value of the dollar decreases. Other countries are already beginning to trade in alternative currencies to the dollar. With economic uncertainty, including inflation and other types of market instability, risk mitigation is key. That's why hard assets with a component of scarcity in a portfolio make sense for capital preservation. One of the better examples is precious metals like gold. Gold holds its value and even increases in downturns. Gold hit new highs in 2025. Dana Samuelson, President of the American Gold Exchange, has decades of experience with rare U.S. gold coins and other precious metals.

In part 2 of this engaging two-part series, host Dustin Owen sits down with Trent Hedge, the founder and CEO of Pylon Lending, for an in-depth discussion about the innovative ways his company is transforming the mortgage industry for Episode 631 of The Loan Officer Podcast. Since establishing Pylon in 2022, Hedge has successfully raised nearly $45 million in venture capital funding, which has enabled him and his team to focus on building a robust technology infrastructure designed to streamline every aspect of mortgage lending from the initial origination of loans all the way through to their delivery on the secondary market.  Throughout the conversation, Hedge explains how Pylon's platform is able to eliminate many of the inefficiencies and bottlenecks that have long plagued traditional mortgage processing, resulting in a smoother, faster, and more transparent experience for all parties involved. He also shares insights into how Pylon is able to deliver substantial pricing improvements for its customers, often in the range of 100 to 200 basis points, making home financing more affordable and accessible.  Additionally, the discussion highlights how Pylon empowers loan officers by equipping them with advanced tools and resources that allow them to significantly scale their businesses without the need to hire additional staff, ultimately driving greater productivity and growth. This episode offers a comprehensive look at the future of mortgage lending and the pivotal role that technology and innovation will play in shaping the industry. TLOP's Originator Coaching:

He makes the case for Alphabet (GOOGL) as a top conviction buy on the dip, Caterpillar (CAT) as a standout infrastructure play, and long-volatility hedged equity strategies as a smart way to manage market swings without giving up upside potential.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/ About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

In episode 630 of the Loan Officer Podcast, host Dustin Owen embarks on a special journey to Palo Alto, California, marking the show's first-ever in-person interview. Dustin sits down with Trent Hedge, the dynamic founder and CEO of Pylon Lending, for an engaging and insightful conversation. Trent opens up about his remarkable entrepreneurial journey, beginning with his early days running a landscaping business as a teenager in Columbus, Ohio. He discusses how his passion for technology led him to teach himself coding, a skill that would prove invaluable as he made the bold decision to relocate to Silicon Valley at just 18 years old. Trent goes on to share the inspiration and challenges behind founding Pylon Lending, a company at the forefront of developing AI-driven, fully automated mortgage origination technology. The discussion delves into how Pylon's innovative platform is designed to dramatically reduce operational costs and streamline the mortgage process, with the ambitious goal of disrupting the traditional lending industry. Dustin and Trent explore the broader implications of automation and artificial intelligence in financial services, and what this means for both lenders and borrowers in the years ahead. Listeners can look forward to part two of this compelling interview, where Dustin and Trent will take an even deeper dive into Pylon's growing impact on the mortgage industry, the future of lending technology, and what's next for both Trent and his groundbreaking company.

Jon Fogel is a parenting expert, pastor, published author, and PhD candidate who runs Whole Parent and Whole Parent Academy, a resource built around the psychology of parenting and discipline. He is the author of the bestselling book Punishment Free Parenting and a brand new children's book, Set My Feelings Free, which sold out nationwide before its second printing. He is a husband, father of four kids ranging from 18 months to nine years old, and somehow found time to install a toilet while his wife was in labor. Jon has been a guest on The Dad Edge podcast twice before, and every single time he shows up, he leaves the room differently than he found it. This episode is a live Q&A inside the Alliance, and the questions the guys brought were real. Getting a spouse on the same page. The pendulum swing between authoritarian and checked-out. A five-year-old who looks you dead in the eye before he does the wrong thing on purpose. And the hard one: what happens when your son won't respond to you the way he responds to his mom. Jon's framework is grounded in brain science and developmental psychology, and the thing that keeps hitting you as you listen is how much of what we were taught about discipline actually works against us. The reason kids shut down when we raise our voices is the same reason our partners shut down when we raise our voices. The reason kids push boundaries is not defiance. It's development. The reason your son runs to mom and not to you is not a reflection of your worth as a father. It's evolution. If you're a dad who's been doing the work but still feels like something is off in how your kids or your partner respond to you, this episode is going to give you clarity in places you didn't expect to find it.   Timeline Summary [1:01] Host introduces Jon Fogel for his third appearance, covering his role as a parenting expert, author, PhD candidate, and founder of Whole Parent Academy [2:05] Jon describes his book Punishment Free Parenting, its bestseller status, and explains that 99% of the book is about what to do instead of punishing [3:42] Jon's newest children's book Set My Feelings Free is sold out nationwide, with a second printing arriving May 20th [4:02] First question from Rich: how to get a spouse on the same page when parenting backgrounds and styles are very different [5:29] Jon explains why you should never try to correct a partner's parenting in the moment, and why the same brain science that applies to kids applies to adults [8:11] Jon introduces the H.E.A.R. framework from Harvard for conflict resolution: Hedge, Emphasize agreement, Acknowledge perspective, Reframe to the positive [10:55] Jon walks through each step of H.E.A.R. practically, showing how removing defensiveness creates space for the other person to move without feeling wrong [14:07] Jon adds a bonus tactic: developing a safe word with your partner as a mutual tap-out when someone is getting too heated to parent effectively [17:56] Second question from Chris: the pendulum swing between strict and disengaged, and why so many parents default to one or the other [19:16] Jon reframes the boundary concept using the backyard fence metaphor: boundaries are not restrictions, they are the only structure that gives a child real freedom [27:17] Third question: a five-year-old who deliberately pushes boundaries and throws food. Jon explains the difference between punishments, natural consequences, and logical consequences [30:50] Jon explains that boundary-pushing at five is a developmental need, not defiance, and offers a practical redirection strategy using a popcorn bowl at dinner [35:15] Anonymous question: son responds to mom and shuts down with dad. Jon addresses attachment hierarchy, enmeshment concerns, and why parents should largely stop parenting together [40:10] Jon explains the science of attachment hierarchy and how kids are hardwired to default to one parent under threat. He clarifies that being second in the hierarchy does not mean you are failing [44:46] Jon shares resources: Punishment Free Parenting, the children's book Set My Feelings Free, The Whole Parent Podcast, and an in-person event in Chicago on May 21st   Five Key Takeaways The worst time to correct your partner's parenting is in the moment it's happening. The same science that tells us not to discipline a dysregulated child applies directly to adults. Wait for calm, get curious about the trigger, and then use the H.E.A.R. framework to address it without creating more defensiveness than you started with. Boundaries are not restrictions. They are the structure that gives your child real freedom. A kid without clear boundaries does not feel free. They feel unsafe. The backyard fence metaphor Jon uses is worth sitting with: your job is to build the fence in the right place, not to police what happens inside it. A five-year-old who looks you in the eye before doing something he knows you don't want is not being defiant. He is developing. At that age, differentiation is a biological need, and the act of doing something dad doesn't want is how he practices becoming his own person. Understanding that changes how you respond. If your son responds better to his mom than to you, that is not an indictment of who you are as a father. Attachment hierarchy is hardwired and evolutionary. The solution is not to compete with mom in the room. It is to build a relationship with your son when she is not there. Kids who do not have their need for autonomy met will meet that need in ways you will not like. Whether it is food at the dinner table, video games at 13, or behavior that seems to come out of nowhere, the question worth asking is: where else in his day does he get to make his own choices?   Links & Resources Punishment Free Parenting by Jon Fogel — https://a.co/d/0hdOkJZl Set My Feelings Free (children's book) — second printing available May 20th In-person Chicago event with Jon Fogel and Eli Harwood — May 21st, downtown Chicago How to Deal With Your Shirt So Your Kids Don't Have to by Eli Harwood The Alliance — http://thedadedge.com/soulmates The Men's Forge — http://themensforge.com/ Shownotes: http://thedadedge.com/1485   Closing The question about attachment hierarchy near the end of this one is going to stay with me for a while. The image of your kid running toward one parent without thinking, faster than conscious thought, because their brain is trying to survive a threat — and knowing that which parent they run to has nothing to do with how hard you've worked or how much you love them — that's both humbling and freeing at the same time. Jon said it plainly: being in second place means you're in first place when the other person isn't there. Do the work. Show up.

In this episode, Kirk Behrendt sits down with recurring guest Dr. Tom Hedge, practicing dentist and educator, to unpack myths dentists still believe — from selling to DSOs and misunderstanding recap/valuation, to overestimating the cost and complexity of modern technology, imaging, magnification, and hygiene staffing. You'll learn how to rethink “rules of thumb,” evaluate DSO offers more clearly, adopt practical tech that improves diagnosis and case acceptance, and use education and community to stay adaptable. Listen to Episode 1052 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Dentists often assume what worked ten years ago will keep working, even when costs, fees, and alternatives have changed.DSO deals can break down when recapitalization happens and cheap money is no longer cheap, shrinking what DSOs can “skim” between dentist pay and profitability.A “second bite of the apple” payout is not guaranteed, and dentists can lose value if the DSO is not financially strong when the holdback comes due.Technology prices and workflows have changed dramatically, and many tools (cameras, scanners, digital X-rays) now deliver faster diagnosis and better patient understanding.Patient imaging can be created quickly using AI tools, which can help patients visualize outcomes and move forward without high-pressure selling.Magnification and hands-free lighting can simplify clinical work, reduce operatory clutter, and improve the patient experience compared to traditional overhead lights.Investing in continuing education moves dentists from “not knowing what you don't know” to confident clinical decision-making, but learning never stops.Snippets:00:00 Welcome And Setup02:04 Why Myths Persist02:38 Rethinking Fees03:42 DSO Big Check Myth05:31 Recap And EBITDA08:19 Independent Dentistry Future09:39 Tech Costs Myth12:59 Hands Free Operatory Tech13:50 AI Smile Imaging Fast15:58 Magnification Lighting Simplified17:33 Hygiene Crisis Reframed19:27 Education And Community20:35 SmileSource Exchange Invite22:09 Final Takeaways GoodbyeGuest Bio/Guest Resources:Dr. Tom Hedge is widely known as one of the top-notch cosmetic dentists in the United States.

  Synchronizing information across the Internet, at an initial glance, looks like a fairly simple problem to solve. Just copy a file to a host and create a magic protocol, right? Not really. Each kind of data has a fairly unique set of requirements--and RPKI data, used to provide security information for BGP, is no different. Job Snijders joins Tom and Russ to talk about ERIK, a protocol developed to synchronize RPKI records.

In this episode of Market Pulse, host Grant Johnsey sits down with Jonathan Brodsky, Founder and Principal at Cedar Street Asset Management, to explore the evolving opportunity set in global small cap equities. As market dynamics shift, investors are increasingly looking beyond U.S. equities for diversification and return potential. Brodsky shares why non-U.S. small caps—often overlooked and less efficient—can offer compelling valuation opportunities and stronger risk-adjusted returns.  The conversation also examines how structural changes, including the rise of private markets in the U.S., are reshaping the small cap universe, creating a clear divergence between U.S. and non-U.S. companies. Brodsky explains how geopolitical developments, supply chain regionalization, and evolving corporate governance standards are influencing investment opportunities across global markets.  Finally, Brodsky outlines his disciplined, forward-looking approach to value investing—highlighting the importance of cutting through market noise, focusing on long-term fundamentals, and identifying companies positioned for sustainable returns.  Important Disclosures The audio podcast is being provided for informational and educational purposes only and is not meant to be taken as investment advice or a recommendation of any specific investment product or strategy. The information does not take your financial situation, investment objective(s), or risk tolerance into consideration. Listeners, including professionals, should under no circumstances rely upon this information as a substitute for their own research or for obtaining specific legal, investment, accounting or tax advice from their own counsel. Non‑U.S. Small Cap Equities Non‑U.S. small cap equities may provide diversification and growth potential but carry elevated risks. These include currency volatility (e.g., U.S. dollar strength reducing returns), higher volatility, and lower liquidity. These securities are more sensitive to local economic, political, and regulatory conditions and may underperform in certain market cycles. They may include lower-quality or unprofitable issuers and are more exposed to trade policy and geopolitical developments. Alternative Investments Alternative investments are not suitable for all investors. Hedge funds use leverage, derivatives, and short selling, which can amplify losses. These investments are typically illiquid, lack regular pricing transparency, and charge high fees that may reduce returns. Interests are not readily transferable, and a secondary market may not exist. Investors should also consider tax complexity and reduced regulatory oversight compared to mutual funds.
