Derek Moore and Shane Skinner talk about the rally in gold no one seems to care about and the gold oil ratio. Then, they go through the indicators used to determine recessions and note they don't seem that bad, although nonfarm payrolls did disappoint. But private sector jobs are growing while the government jobs are falling, so are fed cuts greenlit? Later, looking at S&P 500 net income margin percentage average per decade. Yup, they've been rising each decade. Finally, looking at forward PE ratios against forward EPS and how some stocks like Broadcom got cheaper after last earnings. All this and much more!

September Witchcraft - Harvest Moon, Mabon, Heather & The White Hare In this episode, I'm stepping into the autumn magic of September — a time of gathering, gratitude and transition. We begin with the Harvest Full Moon, exploring its folklore and how you can weave its abundant energy into your craft. I dive into the lore of Heather — a plant long tied to luck, protection, and threshold spaces — and share its magical properties for spellwork and ritual. We celebrate Mabon, the autumn equinox, a sabbat of balance, harvest, and honouring the turning of the wheel. To close I read the folk tale of The White Hare — a story from Dorset legend filled with mystery and enchantment. Plus, I review The Cornish Witch by Elena Collins — a time-slip novel brimming with spirits, Cornwall's landscape and the whisper of magic. Whether you're preparing your altar for Mabon, gathering herbs beneath the Harvest Moon, or simply soaking in September's shifting energy, this episode will guide you deeper into the magic of the season. Harvest Moon Tarot/Oracle Spread (5 cards — can be done with tarot, oracle, or a mix) The Harvest — What have I gathered this season? → What blessings, lessons, or abundance is ripe and ready to acknowledge. The Gratitude — What deserves my thanks right now? → Where to pour appreciation to strengthen roots. The Balance — What is seeking harmony within me? → What needs to be brought into balance at this turning point of light and dark. The Release — What must I let go of before winter? → Habits, fears, or weights that cannot come with you into the darker half of the year. The Illumination — What guidance does the Harvest Moon shine upon my path? → The wisdom or vision that lights the way ahead. Harvest Moon Journal Prompts What am I most proud of harvesting this year — in work, spirit, relationships, or self? Where in my life am I being called to pause and give gratitude? What feels “out of balance” in me right now, and how might I restore harmony? What am I ready to lay down, release, or compost before the dark months? If the Harvest Moon could whisper one message to me, what would it be? What seeds of intention do I want to carry safely through the winter, to blossom when light returns?
Reuniting after more than a decade since their days in This Week in Asia Podcast from 2009, Michael Smith Jr., co-host of The Generalist podcast, and Daniel Cerventus Lim, semi-retired entrepreneur and community builder in Malaysia, join us for a candid assessment of Southeast Asia's tech ecosystem evolution. In this raw conversation, Michael offers his unflinching perspective on what he calls the 'broken windows era' of Southeast Asian tech, arguing that recent alleged fraud cases like E-Fishery and Tanihub require serious consequences to restore investor confidence, while questioning whether the region was ever correctly modelled for Silicon Valley-style outcomes. Daniel shares his pivot from startup founder to search fund advocate, explaining his bullish view on acquiring profitable traditional businesses and reflects on whether the region's potential was genuinely unrealized or simply impossible to achieve. Together, they explore the shift from venture-backed unicorn dreams to bootstrap realities, debate work ethic of Southeast Asia founders in comparison with Chinese and Indian founders, and discuss why the future of Southeast Asian tech may lie in smaller, profitable exits rather than the massive IPOs once envisioned. "I think wealth creation here is very SME-focused." - Daniel Cerventus Lim "Basically whether, it's SME or startup, to me now it's just: can you build a profitable business?" - Bernard Leong "I have this philosophy that I think people don't agree with me, but we're in a broken Windows era of Southeast Asia and the only way in my opinion, the windows get fixed is if some of these people are behind bars." - Michael Smith Jr. Episode Highlights: [00:00] Quote of the Day by Daniel Cerventus, Bernard Leong & Michael Smith JR [00:59] Introduction: Daniel Cerventus and Michael Smith Jr. from the Generalists Podcast [06:00] Multiple alleged frauds in Southeast Asia: E-Fishery, Tanihub [09:57] Southeast Asia in "broken windows era" [11:26] Only exits from seed to Series A [11:47] B rounds virtually gone, A rounds endangered.

Hello Witches Join me on todays episode of The White Witch Podcast where I dive deep into the realms of psychology, spirit and alchemy to uncover what it truly means to transform your life from the inside out. We explore - Viktor Frankl vs Freud – Why Frankl's forward-facing philosophy of meaning and responsibility may serve us more than Freud's obsession with the past.

Heaven & Hell Frequencies – The vibrations we step into daily Silence as God-Connection – How silence can be the most potent portal to the divine. Attention vs Intention – The difference between where our energy goes and what your energy consecrates. This is a contemplative episode – less about quick fixes and more about the deep shift into living as The Alchemist of your own existence. Journal prompts I use as referenced in this episode are - How do I feel in my body and energy field right now? What am I consciously calling in today? If it was already mine how would I feel and act? What aligned action or frequency shift can I take today to meet my desire? What limiting belief. fear or doubt is ready to be released? What new belief am I anchoring in its place? How can I hold the frequency of trust today no matter what? What signs, synchronicities or nudges have I received lately? What does my future self want me to remember today?

Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelensky visited Washington for talks with Donald Trump and other European leaders. The timing coincided with Anushka Asthana's first day as US editor for Channel 4 News, who describes her early impressions of covering the American political landscape. Meanwhile, independent Russian broadcaster TV Rain, operating in exile from Amsterdam, also reported intensively on the Washington meetings. Ekaterina Kotrikadze, news director and anchor, TV Rain, explains how the organisation continues to reach audiences under pressure of censorship and surveillance. The Edinburgh TV Festival has been taking place this week, and brings together industry voices to assess the future of television in the UK and beyond. Camilla Lewis, creative director, Curve Media, and Matt Belloni, co-founder, Puck, provide their perspectives on where money, audiences and creative opportunities are moving. Hedge fund Hunterbrook is experimenting with an unusual model for the news business: publishing investigative journalism while also using its findings to guide investment decisions.

Hedges are fascinating because they are like buildings. They are pretty much everywhere in rural England, Scotland and Wales, and yet do we ever really stop and think about what they are and what they do?One man who thinks a lot about what they are and what they do is Richard Negus, a professional hedgelayer and writer from Suffolk. His recent book, Words from the Hedge: A Hedgelayer's View of the Countryside aims to shine a light on these great green structures that define and demarcate our green and pleasant land. Not only are they important for nature, Richard says, they can also tell us much about the history of rural England from Enclosure all the way to the agricultural policies of the post Second World War era. As well as laying hedges with his trusty billhook and chainsaw, Richard's work also sees him meet plenty of unusual but crucial conservationists that work in East Anglia, and his hands-on approach gives him a perspective on rural affairs that might be considered 'different' to those making policy in Westminster. The countryside is an idiosyncratic place, but Richard tries his best to explain why things are the way they are.He's also a podcaster himself, so if you enjoyed this episode, check out the CountrySlide podcast, and you can read his articles on Scribehound, The Critic, Country Life and elsewhere.

Hedge fund founder, author, and one of the top influences in the financial world, Ray Dalio has written about how countries (or, in his parlance, “empires”) find themselves in irreversible doom spirals, covered in depth in his new book, How Countries Go Broke: The Big Cycle.
