Podcasts about Index

Episode 257 is the ESO EMS Index with Brent Myers, Remle Crowe, and Tony Fernandez. We take an inside look at the Index and answer a few questions about the process and what is EMS data? To have the three guests on the podcast for this discussion and to provide their expertise as well as to take a peek into the future of EMS data was an honor. It also gave me a chance to catch up with Brent and Remle as they continue to return to the podcast as regulars.

In this episode, I speak with the writer, editor, and critic, Christopher Beha, about the Danish bildungsroman by Henrik Pontoppidan, Lucky Per. We focus on Per's struggle to escape from those aspects of his life that are not chosen—family, religion, place—his quest to understand himself, to love other people, and to live a life that is truly happy and free.  Along the way, we discuss reviews of the novel by James Wood and Morten Hoi Jensen, and we give our own diagnosis of why Per fails to be either happy or free.  I hope you enjoy our conversation.

Tesla has been removed from the S&P 500 Index over concerns about their self-driving cars. There've been a number of crashes involving cars with self-driving software. Many say autopilot cars are the future. But Rick isn't so sure. He's uncomfortable giving up control of a car. What happens if someone cuts in front of you? What happens if the computer freezes? The question is: would you buy a self-driving car? The Rick Roberts Show is on NewsTalk 820 WBAP ... (Photo Courtesy of WFAA) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A Wall Street Journal-published-report points out that many of us routinely—and even BLINDLY—rely on the advice of ALGORITHMS in all aspects of our lives today, from choosing the fastest route to the airport to deciding how to invest our retirement savings. In short, WE are programmed-- not just our phones. And we've come to rely on—and trust—algorithms for many things we do.  ….But should we trust them as much as we do? Research suggests maybe we shouldn't.  Especially when it comes to high-stakes financial decisions that can affect our retirement savings.  Algorithmic trading uses computer programs to trade at high speeds and volume. Today, four fifths of all trades in the U.S. stock market are either fully or partially done by algorithms. Index funds are especially vulnerable. Today, we'll explain how to build a retirement investment strategy that can benefit from algorithms, not be crushed by them.  A very timely show you don't want to miss...MASTERING MONEY is on the air!!

A csillagászok számításai szerint jó eséllyel van élet a Földön túl. A kérdés az, hogy akkor hol van már mindenki? Miért nem találjuk az UFO-kat?

Effective consequences are a critical component of improving your child's behavior. But consequences alone are not enough. As a parent, you need to learn how to coach your child on how to behave better. You need to be able to offer your child effective ways to solve their problems without having to resort to abusive or defiant behavior. In this episode, Kimball introduces listeners to the three key parenting roles that are taught in The Total Transformation Program.

Sign up to our newsletter for more in-depth insights | Follow us on LinkedIn   To celebrate our new sponsorship with LiveTrade, Bordeaux Index's new world-leading fine wine trading platform, we're pleased to be replaying our episode with Gary Boom. Originally recorded last summer, he discusses why he started the business and examines the investment opportunities in the fine wine and spirits market.    In this episode Gary Boom, CEO of Bordeaux Index starts by explaining how the poorly organised, past its sell-by- date old model of wine trading has been revolutionised by Bordeaux Index over the last 20 years, with the introduction of scale, liquidity and expertise underscoring the investment attributes of fine wines and whiskies.   The conversation examines long term data provided by Credit Suisse who found that post-World War Two, collectible wines have delivered returns of circa 10% nominal, and real returns of around 7% USD (per annum) . Gary discusses the composition of returns and the indices used to measure them, and explains why consumption creates a virtuous circle, where replacement and scarcity provide strong tailwinds. He talks about the liquidity provided by Live Trade, which they established and which provides narrow bid/ask spreads in over 500 wines.   He talks about the Chinese influence in buying high-end Bordeaux wines, the Champagne and Burgundy markets' evolution as well as how challenges around counterfeiting are being met.   With reference to the late Stephen Spurrier, he discusses the rise of some of the great new world wines which wines he believes will prove good investments and how family offices and wealthy individuals can build significant portfolios of wine to take advantage of its lower correlation to other assets.   He speaks about climate impact on wine producing regions, his gloomy view on UK wines and why Bollinger Group has taken a stake in their business.   Finally he talks about why wine has proved and continues to be a great career for both sexes, some advice for today's youth, and whose wines and their owners he would most like to meet and drink.

Episode #64: Tech Wreck Over the last few weeks, we've experienced perhaps the most significant market decline of 2022, and many investors see nothing but a bleak outlook ahead. Tech stocks, in particular, have taken a beating. However, analyzing statistics about drawdowns and looking to history as a guide is helpful in understanding why it's happening - and why there's still a great probability for positive returns in 2022.

As the Director of Investments at Flourish Wealth Management, I take pride in providing our clients, colleagues, and friends with resources and information that can help them make strategic and effective choices regarding their investments. If you've been enjoying the show, be sure to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts, so you'll never miss an episode. Today, we're talking about the ongoing Tech Wreck. In direct contrast to the most recent episode of Flourish Insights about Silver Linings, the stock market has been experiencing another steep decline over the past couple of weeks. This is the third time we've experienced a dip in the markets during 2022, and so far it seems to be the most aggressive with a couple of days when the S&P 500 Index dropped by over 2%. Small Cap Growth and Large Cap Technology stocks have been hit even harder and are both in Bear Market territory, meaning they have lost over 20% so far this year. Although it seems like the S&P 500 has done as bad or worse this year, Large Cap Stocks are down around 15% so far this year. An important statistic during periods when stock prices are dropping is that the market spends about one-third of the time in drawdown. Drawdowns have happened in 33 of the 96 years that we have market data. The drawdown actually has two components – the decline and the recovery. The decline is what we are in right now when the market is falling and nobody seems to know how long it will last or how low the market will go. Bear markets have historically lasted a little over a year with a total loss of around 33%. However, at some point the downward slide ends and the recovery stage begins until the market reaches the pre-downturn level. It might help to know that the average annual market drop over the past 40 years is 14%. The market is down at some point during the year 100% of the time but has a positive return 75% of the time. That means that our current loss of 15% is pretty average based on market activity over the past 40 years, and that there is still a 75% chance of a positive return in 2022. But let's talk about why the market downturn this year feels so bleak. The barrage of negative headlines about inflation, rising food prices, the War in Ukraine, and pain at the pump is a lot to bear for investors. Add in worries about a recession from aggressive Federal Reserve interest rate hikes and it's not a surprise that investors are questioning why they should stay in the market. (By the way, people definitely should stay in the market or they will lock in the year-to-date losses and miss out on the eventual recovery.) The hardest hit part of the market so far has been Large Cap Technology and Communications stocks. These companies make up the majority of the NASDAQ Composite which is down about 26% this year. It's a grim part of the market with 4,700 stocks where 61% of those stocks are down more than 20%, 43% of the stocks are down more than 40%, and 29% are down over 60%. Some of the notable losers this year include companies that had benefited from the COVID economy, including Zoom, Netflix, and Shopify, all of which are down over 70% this year. There are a few reasons why companies in the NASDAQ Composite are taking the biggest hits from the correction. The first reason is valuation, meaning the stock prices for these companies had been very high after 3 consecutive years of big gains. Stock price estimates are based in part on calculations that use the discount rate, which has been basically zero for the past couple of years but is on the way up with every Fed rate hike. Another hit from higher interest rates is the significant amount of bond debt that these companies have taken on over the past few years, initially issuing record levels of new bond debt to capitalize on the zero interest rate environment but now paying the price for that debt as interest rates spike. Technology and Communications companies represent over 60% of the NASDAQ Composite compared to 35% of the S&P 500 Index. These companies have been driving stock market returns for the past 10+ years, generating between 20% and 40% of the returns in a given year. For example, the so-called FAANG stocks of Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, and Google have returned over 40% per year for the past 5 years while representing almost 25% of the S&P 500 Index and 40% of the NASDAQ. Those stocks are down between 14% (Apple) and 72% (Netflix) so far this year, leading the way for the Tech Wreck we are experiencing at the moment. It's hard to know what's next at this point. Historical evidence shows that we could be close to the bottom of the market dip or at the halfway point of a larger decline. One thing I can be sure of is that companies like Netflix and Peloton still have millions of subscribers and continue to grow, just not at the astronomic rates experienced in 2020. Zoom is here to stay as an important office resource and most of the restaurants I've visited over the past year use point of sale technology from Square. I can't fully explain why each of those stocks have dropped over 60% this year, but they are good businesses with real revenues and attractive growth opportunities, so my expectation is that investors will start to buy those stocks again at some point. The same can be said for most of the stocks that have been beaten up during the Tech Wreck. This is definitely NOT a repeat of the year 2000 when companies like Pets.com, Global Crossing, and Palm went out of business in the blink of an eye. Although I doubt we have seen the bottom of the Tech Wreck, history shows that these companies will experience a recovery at some point on their way to setting new record highs. Hopefully that turning point will happen sooner rather than later.

In this week's Australian Share Market Podcast, Dale discusses how the All Ordinaries Index is down again and when the market is likely to stop falling.

Is there a correlation between employee happiness and customer happiness? Can emotions be translated into data to show the relationship between engagement in the workplace and the top 4 happiness drivers?   The Happiness Index co-founder Matt Phelan discusses how to analyse data on employee happiness, engagement and productivity from a neuroscience perspective, coaching his clients to use data to make effective decisions for their businesses.    Matt believes people are the future of technology, and explains what it takes for an organisation to thrive. He correlates a thriving business with a high happiness score on the Index, along with a high engagement score. Matt shows how a low happiness score even with high engagement does not lead to a culture of thriving; and he brings neuroscience into the workplace to make sense of the data.   The Happiness Index data shows the current "Great Resignation" in the UK to be emotionally driven, not rationally driven. Psychological safety; freedom to take opportunities; feelings of acknowledgement; and positive relationships are shown to be the top four happiness drivers in the workplace. Matt states that although the order of importance of some of these happiness drivers differs culturally -  across the world the number one factor affecting employee happiness is having positive relationships in the workplace.    Matt is the author of Freedom to be Happy.   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=et14son4N5M   Connect with Matt: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewphelan/ Website: http://www.thehappinessindex.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Matthewphelan Email: matt@thehappinessindex.com     Helping SME's build resilient, high performing teams and businesses, quickly, so they can innovate, deliver, and thrive.   The SME's I work with typically struggle/suffer/ with one or more of these challenges: - no clear strategy - dysfunctional team dynamics - not knowing their vision or mission - feeling stuck and procrastinating - business not growing - leadership challenges   If you want support in helping your organisation thrive, do get in contact with me: https://www.julianrobertsconsulting.com

It's been a tough year so far for a traditional “60/40” portfolio, a portfolio of 60% stocks and 40% bonds. Using the S&P 500 Index and the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (“Agg”) to represent stocks and bonds, the traditional 60/40 is down 14.0% as of market close on May 11 on a total return basis, which would trail only 2008 as the worst year on record if that's where we ended the year, but this week Brian explains how the 60/40 portfolio is diversified, and why this recent correction in stocks and bonds set up for a positive outlook for the future.Ford Financial Group on FacebookFord Financial Group on YouTubeQuestions?Find us at FordFG.comEmail us at info@fordfg.comMusic:Cold Funk - Funkorama by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license.

Today's episode features coach and inventor, Rolf Ohman.  Rolf was born in Sweden but grew up in Brisbane, Australia. He has worked for over 40 years in international sports, as an athlete (Decathlon) and as coach at International and National level.  He was the Head Coach for the Dalian Olympic Sports Center 2016-17 and Assistant Head Coach Chinese National Team Sprints/Jumps 2018-19.  Rolf is the inventor of the 1080 Technology (such as the 1080 sprint device), and has substantial experience in both the data-based and practical aspects of coaching and training. In the recent Randy Huntingon podcasts, Randy spoke about how doing hurdle hops over too high of hurdles had the tendency to “kill elasticity”.  Rolf Ohman has worked with Randy, and has substantial experience linking the ground contact times in plyometric exercises, as well as the impulse times of various movements in the weight room, to what is observed in athletics.  Track and field athletes have faster impulse needs than team sport athletes as well, and Rolf has worked with both populations, and understands which metrics should be optimized in training for different situations. On today's podcast, Rolf will speak on the specific drawbacks to using too high of hurdles in bilateral plyometric training, and gives his specific recommendations for which heights he feels are maximally beneficial for both track and team sport individuals.  He'll speak on various elements of transfer in the weight room, such as the progression of the Olympic lifts, as well as thoughts on the transfer present in different elements of gym training, such as the impulse dynamics of lifting seen in elite athletes.  Rolf finishes with some thoughts on youth and long term development on the terms of speed and power.  Ultimately, this episode helps us to better understand closing the “gap” we often see between the gym, and the forces present on the field of play.

Timestamps and Main Points: 4:42 – Rolf's take on the height in hurdle hops, and how it impacts the elasticity of the exercise, as well as drawbacks to using too high of hurdles in the movement 11:13 – What the typical hurdle heights Rolf uses for track and non-track athletes in plyometric training 17:50 – Why Rolf chooses to progress the Olympic lifts in the course of training like he does 24:37 – Rolf's use of partial vs. full ranges of motion in strength training for athletes 38:29 – Thoughts on oscillating isometric exercises with lifts, compared to a Keiser or air-powered machine setup 52:08 – How contact times and hurdle hop heights change for team sports vs. track 58:59 – How limb speed gets “set” before the age of 15 in athletes, and if athletes miss critical speed windows of training, they will be in a limited place in future performance “There aren't a lot of guys around who can produce any sort of RSI index from 1 meter drop jumps… when I use high hurdle hops, which I rarely do, it might be in a setting when I'm seeking some kind of force production” “If I build maximum strength for my long jumpers with contact times in the 250-300ms range, is that going to help me?” “If whatever you're doing in training is on one end of the spectrum, and competition is on the other end of the spectrum, that is “gap-osis”… if that gap is too big, you are going to be in trouble” “In the first 100-150 milliseconds (of a lift) the athletes who are the best really shine there” “We're coordinating the neural system (in the weight room) we are creating the same coupling times that we see in...

"Opatrenia ministra Matoviča sú na jednej strane plošné, tým pádom veľmi drahé. Peňazí je vždy konečné množstvo, takže nedokážete efektívne pomôcť tým, ktorí to najviac potrebujú a pomáhate aj takým, ktorí si nevšimnú, že im prišli vyššie detské prídavky, alebo že zrazu majú vyšší daňový bonus. Tieto opatrenia sú v podstate recyklát, to nie sú opatrenia, ktoré boli cielené primárne na infláciu, veď to je jeho prvá tlačovka k jeho odvodovo-daňovej reforme," hovorí v najnovšom podcaste Index šéf finančného výboru Marián Viskupič z SaS. Sloboda a Solidarita podľa neho nie je apriori proti opatreniam, daňový bonus do nejakej miery treba valorizovať, to isté platí aj pri detských prídavkoch. Červenou čiarou je pre stranu ich zdrojovanie cez vyššie dane, aké navrhuje Igor Matovič. Daňový výber je podľa Viskupiča oveľa lepší, ako bol vlani, aj aké boli očakávania ministerstva financií. Osemsto miliónov, s ktorými rátali na celý rok, je už dnes prekonaných. Za celý rok rozpočtové nadpríjmy prekročia určite miliardu. "A to sú presne tie zdroje, ktoré vieme použiť na inflačnú pomoc," hovorí poslanec. Pomoc ľuďom v časoch vysokej inflácie rozdeľuje koalíciu a to aj po signáloch, že sa strany blížia ku kompromisom. Vyzerá to tak, že koalícia je presne tam, kde bola minulý týždeň. A teda v bode, kedy hovorí o vlastnom rozpade. Nikola Šuliková Bajánová sa o téme rozpráva s Mariánom Viskupičom, poslancom NR SR za Slobodu a solidaritu a šéfom Výboru pre financie a rozpočet. – Ak máte pre nás spätnú väzbu, odkaz alebo nápad, napíšte nám na podcastindex@sme.sk – Všetky podcasty denníka SME nájdete na sme.sk/podcasty – Podporte vznik podcastu Index a kúpte si digitálne predplatné SME.sk na sme.sk/podcast – Odoberajte aj denný newsletter SME.sk s najdôležitejšími správami na sme.sk/suhrnsme – Ďakujeme, že počúvate podcast Index.

Unless otherwise noted, all Web addresses mentioned were functional as of 5-6-22. TRANSCRIPT OF AUDIO From the Cumberland Gap to the Atlantic Ocean, this is Virginia Water Radio for the weeks of May 9 and May 16, 2022.   This episode from is part of a series this year of episodes related to trees and shrubs. MUSIC – ~14 sec – instrumental. That's part of “New Spring Waltz,” by the late Madeline MacNeil, who was a well-known and highly regarded musician based in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley. Each new spring brings a chance to focus on the life cycles of wildlife.  This mid-spring episode of Water Radio explores some connections among nesting birds, trees, and water.  Have a listen for about 30 seconds to three mystery sounds, and see if you know these three bird species who nest in trees near water, either always or at least sometimes.  And here's a hint: you'll be singing a melodious trill, if you hit this mystery out of the park. SOUNDS  - 29 sec. If you guessed two warblers and an oriole, you're right!  And you get bodacious bird bragging rights if you recognized, first, the Prothonotary Warbler; second, the Northern Parula, also a kind of warbler; and third, the bird for which Baltimore's baseball team is named, the Baltimore Oriole.  All three of these songbirds are found in Virginia in the spring and summer breeding season.  During that period, the Prothonotary Warbler is common in Virginia's central and southern Coastal Plain and can occasionally be found in some other parts of the Commonwealth; the Baltimore Oriole is common outside of the Coastal Plain; and the Northern Parula is common statewide.  The three species show a range of attachment to water-side trees as their nesting habitat.  The Prothonotary Warbler is particularly known for nesting in cavities in trees around water; in fact, the bird is sometimes called the “Swamp Warbler” in the southeastern United States.  The Northern Parula typically nests in trees along rivers and wetlands, especially in areas where it can find the materials it prefers for making its hanging nests: Spanish Moss or a kind of stringy lichen; this bird is also known to make nests out of debris left in trees after floods.  The Baltimore Oriole is the least water-attached of these three species, being found nesting high in trees in many areas outside of deep woods, including parks and yards; however, streamsides are among the species preferred areas for the bird's fibrous, hanging nests. If you're near streams, rivers, or wetlands and you see or hear any of these three birds, look to nearby trees for cavities or hanging materials that may be harboring the birds' next generation. Thanks to Lang Elliott for permission to use the bird sounds, from the Stokes Field Guide to Bird Songs.  Thanks also to Janita Baker of Blue Lion Dulcimers and Guitars for permission to use Madeline MacNeil's music, and we close with about 25 more seconds of “New Spring Waltz.” MUSIC – ~26 sec – instrumental.
