Chris Gersch looks at energy volatility as potential U.S. sanctions threaten global supply. “The market's trying to find some way to create alpha,” he says, and geopolitics have created a crude oil tailwind. He talks about his hedging strategies during higher volatility. He thinks natural gas will be in high demand and discusses renewables and energy alternatives. In that frame, he looks at TSLA, which he likes.======== 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 this episode we answer emails from Deeps, David, James, Steven and Jordan.  We discuss the PHYS vs other gold ETFs, the podcast feed link, using AVGE in a risk parity style portfolio, why we do this and tail risk hedging.  And THEN we our go through our weekly portfolio reviews of the eight sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.Additional links:PHYS vs. GLDM:  testfol.io/analysis?s=1lK9VB9xqaMRPR Main Feed Link (all the podcasts -- open in browser):  Risk Parity Radio RSS FeedAVGE Composition And Other Info:  AVGE – Portfolio – Avantis All Equity Markets ETF | MorningstarPortfolio Matrix:  Portfolio Matrix – Portfolio ChartsCAOS Fund:  CAOS – Alpha Architect Tail Risk ETF – ETF Stock Quote | MorningstarAmusing Unedited AI-Bot Summary:  Gold continues to shine while stocks falter in 2024's challenging market environment. This episode demonstrates the power of diversification during turbulent times, with precious metals up over 17% year-to-date as the S&P 500 struggles down nearly 5%. We explore why truly diversified portfolios are proving their worth yet again.Responding to a listener question about gold ETFs, I break down why PHYS's potential tax advantages rarely outweigh its higher expense ratio compared to traditional options like GLD. The physical gold redemption feature sounds appealing but offers little practical benefit for most investors. The entire physical gold storage industry largely profits from fear rather than delivering substantive advantages to everyday investors.The highlight of this episode comes from a fascinating listener discovery – combining the comprehensive Avantis AVGE fund with treasuries and gold creates a remarkably simple yet effective portfolio. This approach addresses a critical concern: ensuring surviving spouses can easily manage investments without sacrificing performance. Our analysis using Portfolio Charts shows this simplified approach delivers comparable results to more complex allocations while dramatically reducing management complexity.We also tackle tail risk hedging strategies, explaining why these insurance-like approaches rarely justify their ongoing costs, especially for investors in the accumulation phase. True diversification provides more reliable protection than specialized instruments designed to profit from market crashes.The portfolio performance review tells the real story – while traditional stock allocations struggle, our diversified sample portfolios are mostly holding steady or positive for the year. Historical patterns suggest diversified portfolios experience down years only about 20% of the time versus 30% for traditional approaches – a meaningful difference that compounds over retirement timeframes.Have questions about navigating today's challenging markets?

Episode Summary In this episode of Kitchen Table Finance, Nick and Dave dive into the biggest retirement-related headlines from February 2025. They discuss essential financial planning topics, including tax strategies, healthcare costs, tariffs, retirement savings habits, and key conversations to have before retiring. https://youtu.be/wUBQ_6HWRHo Key Topics & Takeaways 1. Tax Planning & Healthcare in Retirement (Kiplinger) The importance of integrating tax and healthcare planning into your retirement strategy. Key questions to consider: Have you explored Roth conversions and tax-free investment options? Are you optimizing your AGI to reduce taxes and Medicare premiums? Do you have a plan for long-term care costs? Does your plan consider legacy goals and potential tax burdens? 2. The Impact of Tariffs on Prices (WSJ) A breakdown of how tariffs affect different types of goods. Competitive commodities may see little price increase, while niche products and expensive items may experience higher costs. The unexpected ways tariffs could impact American businesses and consumers. 3. Boosting Your Retirement Savings by Thinking About Future You (WSJ) Many people struggle to prioritize retirement savings because it feels far away. A study shows that individuals who visualize their future selves are more likely to save. Tip: Use AI to generate an image of your older self to create a stronger connection to your financial future. 4. Who Should You Talk to Before Retiring? Two articles take different perspectives on this: WSJ Perspective (WSJ): Spouse, adult children, doctor, HR chief, siblings, financial advisor, trusted colleague, and yourself. Kiplinger Perspective (Kiplinger): Financial planner, tax specialist, estate planning attorney, insurance advisor, senior living advisor, and Social Security advisor. 5. The “Golden Window” Tax Strategy (Kiplinger) The "Golden Window" is the period after retirement but before Social Security and required minimum distributions (RMDs) when taxes are often lower. Strategies for using this time: Roth conversions. Lowering lifetime taxes. Hedging against future tax rate increases. Important considerations: Medicare IRMAA, capital gains tax, and marketplace insurance subsidies. 6. DIY Retirement Planning: Smart or Risky? (Kiplinger) Pros: Saves money, and flexibility. Cons: Risk of costly mistakes, staying up-to-date on tax and investment rules, and long-term planning concerns. It is important to have a plan in place for when a spouse or financial planner is no longer available. 7. Four Things You Lose in Retirement (Kiplinger) Financial security. Employee benefits. Social network. Sense of purpose. The importance of planning ahead to maintain fulfillment and stability. 8. Once You Hit 55, Is the Stock Market Still Your Best Bet? (Kiplinger) The article raises valid points about risk tolerance but oversimplifies the decision. Key takeaways: You should reduce risk but maintain enough growth to outpace inflation. It's not an all-or-nothing decision—balance is key. 9. The 2025 Retirement Landscape: Challenges and Opportunities (U.S. News) Key concerns: Inflation remains a challenge. Market uncertainty continues. The importance of balancing risk and return in 2025. Social Security will see a 2.5% increase—but is it enough? Final Thoughts Nick and Dave emphasize the importance of ongoing financial planning. Markets, tax laws, and personal goals evolve, making it essential to revisit your financial strategy regularly.

In the past decade, China has ramped up its engagement in the Middle East, a region which is far from China geographically, but carries growing importance in China's foreign policy. Economically, China is the biggest importer of the Middle East oil, particularly from Saudi Arabia and Iraq. Chinese state-owned enterprises have invested heavily in the region under the Belt and Road Initiative with an emphasis on physical and digital infrastructure, including telecommunications, 5G connectivity, submarine optic cables, and security information systems.  Diplomatically, China played a role in brokering a deal between Saudi Arabia and Iran, two longstanding regional rivals. Beijing has also been instrumental in expanding the BRICS multilateral mechanism to include four Middle East countries. Securing access to vital natural resources is a key driver of Beijing's intensified engagement in the Middle East. But China's interests are broader and encompass economic, geopolitical and strategic considerations.To further discuss China's interests and evolving role in the Middle East, Michael Schuman joins host Bonnie Glaser. Michael is a nonresident senior fellow at the Global China Hub of the Atlantic Council and an author and journalist with more than 25 years of on-the-ground experience in Asia.  He is the co-author of a recently published report by the Atlantic Council titled China's Middle East policy shift from ‘hedging' to ‘wedging.' Timestamps[00:00] Start[02:06] China's Interest in the Middle East[04:23] Evaluating China's Strategy of “Wedging” [06:51] Evaluating China's Position of Neutrality[10:17] Factors Driving China's Middle Eastern Strategy [13:46] Chinese Bilateral and Multilateral Engagement [16:08] China's Energy Ties with the Middle East[19:41] Implications for the United States[24:19] Limits to Chinese Engagement

On today's episode, Clay is joined by Kris Sidial to discuss tail risk hedging. A tail risk hedging strategy is designed to help investors protect their portfolios from extreme market downturns, reducing the risk of significant capital loss. By mitigating large drawdowns, investors can potentially achieve a smoother return profile over time, enhancing their Sharpe ratio and the long-term growth of their portfolio.   Kris Sidial is the co-investment officer of Ambrus Group, which implements a carry-neutral tail risk hedging strategy to protect investors against market crashes. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: 00:00 - Intro 01:40 - What a tail risk hedging strategy is and how it's implemented. 06:25 - What is the VIX, and how it ties into a tail risk hedging strategy. 08:28 - Examples of historical market blowups where a tail risk strategy thrives. 21:07 - Why the reflexive nature of markets has led to more violent and swift drawdowns in recent years. 31:06 - The benefits of a tail risk strategy to investor portfolios. 50:41 - Legendary traders Kris looks up to and books that influenced him the most.

What We Learned In This Episode of the Red Dirt Agronomy PodcastThe Importance of Delivery Points: Producers need accessible locations to deliver diverse products like white wheat, mung beans, and sesame. Without these nearby delivery points, it's unrealistic to expect them to participate in niche markets.Having accessible delivery points is crucial for producers, especially for specialty crops. Producers need a place to deliver their products quickly and efficiently during harvest.Bridging the Gap Between Agriculture and Food: One of the biggest challenges is connecting production agriculture with the food industry. Farmers think in bulk, but the food business requires consistent supply and specific standards.Bridging the gap between agriculture and the food industry involves addressing differences in how each operates. Farmers typically deal in bulk, while the food industry needs a consistent, year-round supply that meets specific safety and quality standards.The Role of Infrastructure: Infrastructure, especially cold storage, is critical for family farms building direct-to-consumer beef programs. The lack of available infrastructure in rural areas is a significant bottleneck.Infrastructure, particularly cold storage, is essential for family farms aiming to sell beef directly to consumers. The scarcity of such infrastructure in rural areas poses a major challenge.The Consumer's Growing Interest: Consumers are increasingly interested in where their food comes from and are seeking cleaner ingredients. This trend presents an opportunity for local and regional food systems.Consumers are showing more interest in the origins of their food and are actively seeking cleaner, healthier options. This growing awareness creates a significant opportunity for local and regional agriculture.The Franchisable Ecosystem Model: The model Brady is developing—small ecosystems with post-farm infrastructure, delivery points, and value-added processing—can be replicated across the country.Brady's approach of creating small, localized ecosystems with essential infrastructure can be scaled and replicated nationwide. This model supports local agriculture by adding value to specialty crops.The Need for Risk Management: Managing risk is crucial, especially with specialty crops that lack traditional futures contracts.

Charles L. Failla thinks the markets are “priced for perfection,” citing the CAPE ratio approaching the same levels as the dot-com bubble. He gives examples of ways to hedge against market volatility, including diversification and options strategies.

Join Jason Hartman and MC Company Principal and Co-Partner, as well as the Real Estate Adviser of Robert Kiyosaki, Ken McElroy, in this insightful discussion about real estate investing, inflation, and the effect of today's economy on the rental markets. Both Ken and Jason learned the power of leverage to hedge against inflation, and in this episode, they share their combined knowledge with the listeners. Ken feels that investing in real estate and watching the dollar, mortgage rates, and inflation are lifelong endeavors and it's important to stay on top of those things. He also shares why he prefers apartments over residential investments, expressing it allows greater control over the financial outcome of the asset. Ken talks about the pent up demand of Gen Y'ers, who currently are forced to live at home due to scarcity of jobs, but who will eventually flow into the rental market if and when jobs are created and the economy begins to improve. Jason and Ken also share their similar knowledge regarding macro- and micro-markets, the importance of researching job markets, employment rates, population, schools, etc. “At the end of the day, it's all about demographics,” Ken says.   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Today we're talking about something we see far too often: living with one foot in the world and one foot in the faith. It's time to make a choice, to stop hedging our bets, and go all in with Christ. In this episode, we share our own struggles with lukewarm faith and explore what it means to commit fully to God. We look at examples from Scripture—like Elijah calling out the people on Mount Carmel and David's heartfelt psalm of trust—to remind us that God doesn't want a half-hearted relationship. Advent is a time to prepare, reflect, and decide: Will we give our all to Him, or keep clinging to the distractions of the world? Victor and I are passionate about helping you find the joy, peace, and purpose that only Christ can bring. This episode is a wake-up call for anyone who's ready to stop living a "safe" faith and start living a fulfilled one. Don't miss this one, and as always, share it with someone who might need to hear this message. God bless! Join us for our 2025 Footsteps of St. Paul Pilgrimage to Greece and Turkey! Get ready for an incredible journey through biblical history, breathtaking views, and moments of spiritual renewal.

In this episode, Jim talks about the habit of some deponents of qualifying their answers by using words like think, feel, believe, and presume. These words are known in academic and psychological circles as "linguistic hedges." They're common and harmless in social conversations. But in the unforgiving world of sworn testimony, they create a record suggesting witnesses don't know what they're talking about. Not only do hedges diminish the force of testimony, but they can render it entirely inadmissible. In the wrap-up, Jim provides specific practice strategies for impressing upon clients that the lax and incautious use of hedges can inflict grievous harm on their claims or defenses. He also explains how to train clients to avoid using hedges when testifying.SHOW NOTESStrategic Use Of (UN)certainty Expressions, Lorson, Cummins and Rohde, Frontiers in Communications, Mar. 18, 2021, https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/communication/articles/10.3389/fcomm.2021.635156/fullThe Use of Hedging in Research Articles on Applied Linguistics, Livytska, I., Journal of Language and Cultural Education (July 2019), https://sciendo.com/article/10.2478/jolace-2019-0003Hedging and Academic Writing: An Analysis of Lexical Hedges, Demir, C., Journal of Language and Linguistic Studies, 14(4) (2018), https://www.jlls.org/index.php/jlls/article/view/812Linguistic Hedging In The Light Of Politeness Theory, Vlasyan, G., European Proceedings of Social and Behavioural Sciences (2018), https://www.europeanproceedings.com/article/10.15405/epsbs.2018.04.02.98A Study of Hedges in Courtroom Oral Arguments from the Perspective of Contextual Adaption, Chen and Zhang, International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Publications, https://ijmrap.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IJMRAP-V4N8P114Y22.pdfHedging in Courtroom Discourse, Lebedeva and Gribanova, http://ial-journal.org/en/node/53Middleton v.
