AI Startup Funding Models Gerry Hays, a professor of venture capital with 21 years of experience and a history of investing in 75 startups, discussed his work in supporting founders to create AI-focused startups through a grant-based funding model. He explained their "Venture Staking" system, which allows individuals to invest small amounts of money in startups early on, with the potential to earn 10x returns if the company succeeds. Michael shared his experience working in IT during the dot-com era and emphasized the importance of accessible funding for new businesses, highlighting how Gerry's approach provides an alternative to traditional VC funding by building a community of potential investors. Community-Driven Investment Transformations Michael and Gerry discussed the transformative power of community-driven investing, emphasizing its potential to foster genuine interest and engagement in ventures beyond mere financial returns. Michael highlighted how such investments create a sense of belonging and collaboration, comparing it to cheering for a team, while Gerry stressed the future importance of community and networks in startups, contrasting them with easily replicable software. They agreed that early participation in ventures offers significant advantages, including learning opportunities and potential financial gains, as well as the chance to be part of a community that drives innovation and growth. Alternative Investments: Volatility and Returns Michael discussed the high volatility and potential for significant returns in alternative investment platforms, contrasting them with traditional stock markets where 52% of Fortune 500 companies from 2000 have since disappeared. He emphasized the transformative nature of current market shifts and the importance of active engagement in investments, which fosters community and deeper research. Michael highlighted how such platforms encourage users to delve into detailed analysis, unlike the surface-level engagement often seen on social media. AI and Entrepreneurship Growth Strategies Michael and Gerry discussed the value of experience in entrepreneurship and the importance of regular updates to investors for accountability. They highlighted how AI, like previous tools like the internet, can enhance business operations but should be used as a tool rather than a replacement for human expertise. Gerry emphasized the potential for small investments in innovative businesses to grow significantly, citing the rise of no-code tools and AI as enablers of this transformation. Adapting to Startup Challenges Michael and Gerry discussed the importance of adaptability and risk-taking in the startup world, using examples like Pets.com and Comscore Networks to illustrate the challenges and opportunities faced by early-stage companies. Gerry explained the unique features of Dorio.com, a platform that allows non-accredited investors to test the waters and gain insights into startups before making larger investments. They emphasized the value of calculated risk-taking and the platform's ability to make venture capital more accessible to a wider audience. Michael encouraged listeners to explore Dorio.com as a potential holiday gift or investment opportunity.   About Gerry Hays Gerry Hays is redefining how startups are funded—and who gets to participate. As the founder of Doriot and the creator of VentureStaking™, a patent-pending investment model, Gerry is challenging the traditional venture capital system and opening the door for everyday people to invest in high-growth startups—without needing to write a five-figure check or place risky early bets. With more than 25 years of experience as a serial founder and startup investor, Gerry has successfully launched, scaled, and exited multiple companies. He's taught entrepreneurial finance and venture capital at Indiana University's Kelley School of Business, where he mentored hundreds of emerging founders across the globe. Gerry is also the author of the 5-star-rated book, The First-Time Founder's Equity Bible, a practical guide that demystifies equity structures and funding for new entrepreneurs. He created Fantasy Startup®, the world's #1 startup investing simulation with over 14,000 downloads. And in his push to democratize access to private markets, he developed the QAI (Qualified Accredited Investor) Certification, empowering non-traditional investors to confidently and knowledgeably enter the world of private equity. But Gerry's mission goes far beyond credentials. Through Doriot and the VentureStaking™ model, he's flipping the script on startup investing. Instead of gambling early like traditional angels or waiting for IPO access on Wall Street, investors can now earn the option to invest in startups once they've begun to succeed—radically lowering risk and broadening participation. This isn't crowdfunding. It's a smarter, more inclusive, and capital-efficient way to back innovation—and benefit from it. What your audience will take away: How to begin startup investing with as little as $10 Why VentureStaking™ may be the most game-changing asset class since crypto How access to private markets is being reimagined for the 99% What it really means to own equity in the next unicorn—before Silicon Valley gets in If your show dives into entrepreneurship, disruption, financial empowerment, or emerging investment trends, Gerry Hays will bring bold, practical insights—and a roadmap for how your audience can take a real stake in the future.

Money can so easily capture our hearts. It promises security, comfort, and control—but often leaves us anxious and striving for more. Yet when we give, something remarkable happens. We're declaring our dependence on God, not our bank accounts.Dr. Art Rainer—founder of the Institute for Christian Financial Health and author of Money in the Light of Eternity: What the Bible Says about Your Financial Purpose—joined us recently to explore how generosity becomes an act of trust that transforms our hearts and deepens our faith.Money Reveals the HeartLarry Burkett often said, “Every spending decision is a spiritual decision.” Dr. Rainer agrees.“Jesus said, Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also,” Art explained. “The Bible makes it clear—money management reflects heart management.”Scripture contains over 2,000 verses about money and possessions. Why? Because few things so clearly reveal what—or whom—we truly trust. For believers, the central question is this: Do we believe God's promises about provision, and are we willing to surrender this area of life to Him?Giving as an Act of TrustDr. Rainer describes giving as a tangible expression of faith. “God doesn't tell us to give and then leave us hanging,” he said. “He ties promises to generosity.”Those promises fall into three beautiful truths—God will provide, multiply, and enrich.1. God Promises to ProvideIn Malachi 3:10, the Lord declares:“Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do, I will open the windows of heaven for you and pour out a blessing so great you won't have enough room to take it in. Try it! Put me to the test!”“God invites us to trust Him,” Art said. “He promises to pour out an abundance of blessings—not necessarily material wealth, but blessings that can be spiritual, relational, or emotional. Maybe it's the contentment you've been chasing for years, or the joy of being part of something far greater than yourself.”2. God Promises to MultiplyIn John 6, a young boy offers his five loaves and two fish to Jesus—hardly enough to feed five thousand hungry people. Yet Christ multiplies that small gift until everyone is satisfied, with twelve baskets left over.“Many of us feel like that boy,” Art said. “We look at our meager resources and wonder, What difference can this make? But God is a God of multiplication. He can take whatever you give and expand it to accomplish His purposes. That's His promise—but it requires trust.”3. God Promises to EnrichWho doesn't love a good return on investment—or ROI? “God does too,” Art said.In 2 Corinthians 9:11, Paul writes, “You will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous.”“God gives so that we can give,” Art continued. “He blesses so that we can bless others. He's looking for conduits of generosity—people through whom His blessings can flow. When we live that way, generosity becomes not just a habit, but a way of life.”Trusting God With Your MoneyAs Dr. Rainer summed it up:“Generosity is an act of trust. It shifts our hearts from reliance on ourselves and money to reliance on God. If you're a Christian, you've already trusted Him with your soul. It's time to trust Him with your money.”When we give generously, we're not losing—we're investing in eternity. We're saying, “Lord, I believe You are my provider.” And that's one of the clearest ways to live out genuine faith.Learn more about Dr. Art Rainer's work at ChristianMoneySolutions.com.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 69 with no debt and considering a whole life insurance policy—$100,000 with premiums for 10 years—to leave tax-free money to my children.

Not all Roth conversions are created equal — and new research shows a clear winner. Richard Rosso breaks down a study that modeled hundreds of thousands of retirement scenarios to determine which Roth conversion strategy performs best over a 10-year period: • Staying in a traditional IRA/401(k) and taking RMDs • A one-time Roth conversion • A gradual, multi-year conversion strategy We examine how taxes, RMDs, longevity, and investment returns affect the outcome — and why a one-time conversion often comes out ahead if you can handle the upfront tax bill. 0:19 - The Sexiest Word in Finance 4:44 - The Roth Account Smile 7:29 - Roth Applications for Different Stages of Life 10:17 - Tax Hierarchy Considerations 14:09 - The Craft of Retirement Income & Withdrawals 19:07 - Roth as a Legacy Tool 21:22 - A Lifetime of Tax Savings with Roth 24:11 - Why a One-time Roth Conversion is Best Option 30:36 - Reconsidering Gradual Withdrawals 33:12 - Retirement Strategies are Personal 33:53 - Tim Allen, Mike Rowe, & Why Men Don't Work 38:14 - Thanksgiving Wishes Hosted by RIA Advisors Director of Financial Planning, Richard Rosso, CFP Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch Today's Full Video on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mkgUOAZU7Y&list=PLVT8LcWPeAuhi47sn298HrsWYwmg8MV7d&index=1 ------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "Why This Pullback Isn't a Panic" is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bb8BeVp7ID8&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- REGISTER for our 2026 Economic Summit, "The Future of Digital Assets, Artificial Intelligence, and Investing:" https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2026-ria-economic-summit-tickets-1765951641899?aff=oddtdtcreator ------- Our Previous Show, "How The Fed Deals Liquidity: The Monetary Toolbox" is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnB1pog_r_I&list=PLVT8LcWPeAugpcGzM8hHyEP11lE87RYPe&index=1 ------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestm entadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- SUBSCRIBE to The Real Investment Show here: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow -------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #RothIRA #RetirementPlanning #TaxStrategy #IRAConversion #PersonalFinance

When you think of spending and investing, what do you think of? Most of us think of investing as a good and smart thing, and spending, especially excessively, as a bad thing. Right? How about we put this into a new perspective? How about your thoughts, thinking, and emotions? What if we put the old-fashioned “swear jar” on the counter, as a metaphor? With the “swear jar,” each time you said a bad word you have to put a dollar into it. And, of course, this means there is a cost to using bad words. Actually, there is a loss of that dollar from your pocket. Now, what about your thoughts? What if all disempowering, fearful, and negative thoughts cost you? And, the reverse, all positive thoughts were an investment in a better quality of life? What if every time you had a negative thought and got into fear you spent your life and when you were positive in your thinking you were investing in your life? In this episode, I talk about a few strategies to interrupt your negative thoughts. These steps are: AwarenessConscious choice to move your attention Where to move your attention and moving it GratitudeAnd, Repetition When you practice what you're going to learn in this episode it can make a huge difference in your life.

Live from Morgan Stanley's Asian Pacific Summit, our Chief Fixed Income Strategist Vishy Tirupattur explains why micro trends are likely to be more on focus than macro shocks next year.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Vishy Tirupattur: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I am Vishy Tirupattur, Morgan Stanley's Chief Fixed Income Strategist, coming to you from the Morgan Stanley Asia Pacific Summit underway in Singapore. Much of the client conversation at the summit was about the market outlook for 2026. In the last few days, you've heard from my colleagues about our outlook for the global economy, equities and cross asset markets. On today's podcast, I will focus on the outlook and key themes ahead for the global fixed income market. It's Thursday, November 20th at 10am in Singapore. Last year, the difficulty of predicting policy really complicated our task. This year brings its own challenges. But what we see is micro trends driving the markets in ways that adapt to a generally positive stance on risk. Our economists' base case sees continued disinflation and growth converging towards potential by 2027, with the possibility that the potential itself improves. Notably, they present upside scenarios exploring stronger demand and rising productivity, while the downside case remains relatively benign. The U.S. remains pivotal, and the U.S. led shocks – positive and negative – should drive outcomes for the global economy and markets in 2026, In 2025, the combination of a resilient U.S. consumer supported by healthy balance sheets and rising wealth alongside robust AI driven CapEx has underpinned growth and helped avoid recession despite the headwinds of trade policy. These same dynamics should continue to support the baseline outlook in 2026, even though the path will be likely uneven. The Fed faces a familiar conundrum softening labor markets versus solid spending. The baseline assumes cuts to neutral as unemployment rises, followed by a recovery in the second half. Outside the U.S., most economies trend towards potential growth and neutral policy rates by end of 2026, but the timing and the trajectory vary. And as in recent years, global outcomes will likely hinge on U.S.-led effects and their spillovers. Our macro strategists expect government bond yields to stay range bound, and it is really a story of two halves. A front-loaded rally as the Fed cuts 50 basis points, pushing 10-year yields lower by mid-year before drifting higher into the fourth quarter. Curve steepening remains our high conviction call, especially two stents curve. The dollar follows a similar arc, softening mid-year, and then rebounding into the year end. AI financing moves to the forefront putting credit markets in focus, a topic that has come up repeatedly in every single meeting I've had in Singapore so far. So, from unsecured to structured and securitized credit in both public markets and private markets, credit will likely play a central role in enabling the next wave of AI related investments. Our credit and securitized credit strategists see data center financing in 2026 dominated by investment rate issuance. While fundamentals in corporate and securitized credit remain solid, the very scale of issuance ahead points to spread widening investment rate and in data center related ABS. Carry remains a key driver for credit returns, but dispersion should rise. Segments relatively insulated from the AI related supply such as U.S. high yield, agency brokerage backed securities, non-agency CMBS and RMBS are poised to outperform. We favor agency MBS and senior securitized tranches over U.S. investment grade, especially as domestic bank demand for agency MBS returns post finalization of the Basel III. 2025 was a tough year to navigate, and while we are constructive on 2026, it won't be a walk in the park. The challenges ahead look different. Less about macro shocks, more about micro shifts and market nuance. More details in our outlooks published just a few days ago.

One of the biggest reasons why affluent families and high-net-worth investors have lost trust in financial services and wealth management firms is that most of the advice they receive is biased and driven by incentives that serve institutions instead of clients.Imagine financial advice and strategies that truly align your wealth with conflict-free guidance. Most investors expect traditional wealth managers and RIAs to act in their best interests. Today's guest will reveal how the financial industry actually operates—and how they are disrupting the status quo.That's why I'm thrilled to welcome Mo Lidsky to the podcast. Mo is CEO and Partner at Prime Quadrant, one of North America's leading multi-family offices. With $26B+ in AUC (Assets Under Consultation™) and over 400 years of combined experience, they've cracked the code on providing financial services that aren't focused on selling products, and empower families to make better financial decisions.They believe that typical family offices with 7-figure net worths should have the same access to institutional-quality options that are enjoyed by billion-dollar corporations, offering aligned interests, a diversity of opportunities, exceptional planning, and predictable outcomes. In our conversation, Mo shares how Prime Quadrant designed a cost-effective family office model that bridges the gap between retail investors and institutions, giving clients access to institutional opportunities and advice tailored solely to their needs. We'll also discuss how their fee-only structure creates transparency and how focusing on your real goals leads to genuinely personalized financial advice.In this episode, you'll learn: 1.) How to identify misaligned incentives in traditional wealth management and avoid paying for biased advice.2.) How Prime Quadrant's family office model delivers institutional-quality access and advice for affluent families.3.) How to clarify what you truly want—and build your financial life around purpose, freedom, and alignment.Show Notes: LifestyleInvestor.com/265Tax Strategy MasterclassIf you're interested in learning more about Tax Strategy and how YOU can apply 28 of the best, most effective strategies right away, check out our BRAND NEW Tax Strategy Masterclass: www.lifestyleinvestor.com/taxStrategy Session For a limited time, my team is hosting free, personalized consultation calls to learn more about your goals and determine which of our courses or masterminds will get you to the next level.

The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode 415 HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak DESCRIPTION In this episode, Peter Boulden and Craig discuss the critical importance of succession planning for dentists, emphasizing that every dentist will eventually need to consider their exit strategy. They explore various pathways for transitioning out of practice, including selling outright, forming partnerships, or selling to private equity. The conversation highlights the significance of understanding practice value, the emotional aspects of selling, and common mistakes to avoid in the planning process. The hosts encourage proactive planning to maximize the value of a dental practice and ensure a smooth transition. TAKEAWAYS Succession planning is essential for all dentists. Timing is crucial in the succession planning process. The value of a practice is often tied to its goodwill and assets. Selling a practice without proper planning can lead to significant losses. Partnerships can provide a smoother transition and better value. Private equity can offer liquidity but comes with risks. Emotional states can cloud decision-making in practice transitions. Clear financial records are vital for successful transitions. Investing in practice growth can enhance future sale value. Planning for succession should start early in a dentist's career.

Markets rise and fall—but not all cycles tell the same story. What do those ups and downs really mean for your investments?Scripture reminds us in Ecclesiastes 3:1, “To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven.” Just as God designed natural cycles—the sun, the tides, the seasons—financial markets also move through cycles. While less predictable, these patterns help us understand where we are in the investing journey and how to prepare wisely for what's ahead.According to Mark Biller, Executive Editor at Sound Mind Investing (SMI), the two most common market cycles are known as bull markets (when prices rise) and bear markets (when prices fall). But within those categories lie two distinct types of trends: cyclical and secular.Cyclical vs. Secular: What's the Difference?“The terms might sound fancy,” says Biller, “but they really describe short-term versus long-term cycles.”Cyclical markets are the short-term ups and downs—periods that might last a few months to a few years.Secular markets are the broader, long-term trends that can span decades—often between 10 and 40 years.Think of it like waves on the ocean. Cyclical markets are the smaller waves that move in and out, while secular markets are the larger tides that shape the shoreline over time.Learning from History: Market ExamplesFrom 1968 to 1982, the S&P 500 was essentially flat—a 15-year stretch where inflation eroded nearly 60% of investors' purchasing power. That's what economists call a secular bear market—a long-term period of little to no progress.Yet within that broader season, there were multiple shorter-term bull and bear cycles. Investors who recognized those patterns could navigate the market with more perspective and less panic.The same was true from 2000 to 2009, another decade of overall stagnation in U.S. stocks. “But even then,” Biller notes, “we saw two cyclical bear markets with a five-year bull market sandwiched between them.”The takeaway? Even in long-term downturns, some shorter-term opportunities and recoveries keep markets moving forward over time.Why It Matters—Especially for Bond InvestorsUnderstanding these cycles isn't just an academic exercise. “It's actually more helpful when it comes to bonds than stocks,” Biller explains.That's because bond markets move in much longer secular cycles. From 1982 to 2021, the U.S. enjoyed a 40-year secular bull market in bonds as interest rates steadily declined from 15% to near zero. But since 2020, that trend has reversed. “Interest rates have been rising again,” Biller says, “and that's led to negative returns for many bond investors over the last five years.”This shift could signal the beginning of a secular bear market for bonds—a long period in which rising interest rates make it harder for bonds to perform well.Rethinking the Classic 60/40 PortfolioFor decades, the “60/40” portfolio—60% stocks and 40% bonds—was the gold standard for balanced investing. But in today's environment, that mix may need to evolve.“At Sound Mind Investing (SMI), we've reduced our bond allocation to around 30%,” Biller explains. “We haven't abandoned bonds altogether, but we're diversifying beyond them.”That diversification includes strategies like:Dynamic asset allocation—adjusting investments as market conditions shiftGold and commodities—as hedges against inflationReal estate and energy stocks—for long-term growth potentialAlternative assets like Bitcoin (in small doses), to add further varietyBuilding a Portfolio That Endures Every SeasonWhether markets are bullish or bearish, cyclical or secular, the goal remains the same: build a portfolio that's resilient and rooted in wisdom.Biller's encouragement for long-term investors is simple:“We're not advocating for dramatic changes, but rather thoughtful diversification. The goal is to build portfolios you can stick with through every kind of market season.”That perspective echoes a deeper truth for believers: our ultimate security isn't found in market trends but in God's unchanging character. Markets may rise and fall, but His promises endure forever.Faith, Patience, and PerspectiveUnderstanding both short- and long-term market cycles helps us invest with patience, discipline, and faith—trusting that God is sovereign over every season, financial or otherwise.As Proverbs 21:5 reminds us, “The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.”In every bull and bear market, we're called to plan wisely, give generously, and trust deeply—knowing that the One who holds the future also holds us.For more practical investing insights and biblical wisdom, visit SoundMindInvesting.org.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm nearing retirement with no debt and some investment savings, but I don't have a pension.

US Gold Corp (NASDAQ: USAU) represents an increasingly rare investment opportunity in the North American mining sector - a fully permitted, shovel-ready gold-copper development project approaching a critical inflection point. The company's CK Project in Wyoming is completing its Definitive Feasibility Study by mid-December 2025, with public release planned for January 2026, positioning investors ahead of formal project financing negotiations and potential strategic interest from consolidating producers.The project's fundamental advantages centre on infrastructure and operational simplicity. Located 20 miles from Cheyenne, Wyoming, the CK Project benefits from established power and water infrastructure, rail connectivity within three miles, and access to a skilled industrial workforce without requiring worker accommodation. Chairman Luke Norman emphasized this distinction: "If we were trying to build this up in the snow belts in Alaska or something, it would be an entirely different undertaking." These infrastructure advantages translate directly into reduced capital intensity and lower operating costs compared to remote mining developments.The operational approach further differentiates the project from conventional precious metals mining. Norman characterized it as "a glorified quarry just with a little more infrastructure to extract the minerals," utilizing straightforward crushing and flotation processes with no on-site smelting required. The geology enhances this simplicity, with mineralization exposed at surface and "the richest stuff at surface," eliminating extensive pre-stripping requirements and accelerating the timeline to cash flow generation.Project economics demonstrated sub-year payback potential in previous studies, an exceptional metric that speaks to rapid capital recovery. Whilst Norman acknowledged the forthcoming DFS will reflect increased capital costs for enhanced environmental measures, he maintained that "the margins on the project have just increased dramatically" due to gold and copper price appreciation. This economic robustness has attracted considerable financing interest, with Norman confirming "so many term sheet come across our desk in the last 12 months."The resource base comprises a 1.7 million ounce gold reserve supporting projected annual production exceeding 100,000 ounces over a minimum 10-year mine life. Importantly, management identifies potential for "another million ounces plus potential for harvesting within the pit," providing resource growth opportunity without requiring additional permitting or fundamental changes to the mining plan.The strategic context enhances the investment thesis. Norman characterized the project financing environment as "a lot of capital chasing very few projects that are permitted and ready to go," reflecting the scarcity of development-ready projects in North America. This dynamic creates both favourable financing terms and potential M&A premium, with Norman acknowledging the DFS completion "might even trigger some interest from an M&A perspective." Management's stated focus on equity value creation - "whatever is best for the stock" - aligns with shareholder interests across multiple potential value realisation pathways.For investors seeking exposure to North American gold and copper production development without the regulatory uncertainties that plague most junior mining investments, US Gold Corp offers a differentiated opportunity. The convergence of complete permitting, exceptional infrastructure advantages, robust project economics, secured financing interest, and imminent DFS completion positions the company for significant value creation as it enters what management anticipates will be "a really fast and furious 2026."

November is financial literacy month, and when it comes to finances, ignorance is certainly not bliss.With all the resources online, whether that be from TikToks or business blogs or even ChatGPT, it may seem intimidating to cut through all the noise to find out what works for you. But the reality is, educating yourself is easier than you think. All it takes is one conversation.Host Kris McCusker speaks to Gary Teelucksingh, co-founder of the Money Wise Institute and partner at Electric Mind. He's also the author of Roots of Prosperity: Building Legacies Beyond Wealth. The two discuss how to build financial habits that work for your personal lifestyle, and how the worst thing you could do for your money is NOT talk about it, regardless of how old you are.

With Speaker Mike Johnson furious over the Senate's version of the bill, Trump signaling possible objections, and Pam Bondi's “black Sharpie” powers still buried in the fine print, the whole process reeks of familiar Washington fog. From concerns about victim privacy to fears of releasing non-credible accusations, to the potential exposure of investigative methods, the bill's flaws raise more questions than answers. After months of political theater, influencer photo-ops, and promises of transparency, confidence is low and cynicism is earned. Forget it, America—it's Chinatown.

Our CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist Mike Wilson explains why he continues to hold on to an out-of-consensus view of a growth positive 2026, despite near-term risks.Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Mike Wilson, Morgan Stanley's CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist. Today I'll discuss our outlook for 2026 that we published earlier this week. It's Wednesday, Nov 19th at 6:30 am in New York. So, let's get after it. 2026 is a continuation of the story we have been telling for the past year. Looking back to a year ago, our U.S. equity outlook was for a challenging first half, followed by a strong second half. At the time of publication, this was an out of consensus stance. Many expected a strong first half, as President Trump took office for his second term. And then a more challenging second half due to the return of inflation. We based our differentiated view on the notion that policy sequencing in the new Trump administration would intentionally be growth negative to start. We likened the strategy to a new CEO choosing to ‘kitchen sink' the results in an effort to clear the decks for a new growth positive strategy. We thought that transition would come around mid-year. The U.S. economy had much less slack when President Trump took office the second time, compared to the first time he came into office. And this was the main reason we thought it was likely to be sequenced differently. Earnings revisions breadth and other cyclical indicators were also in a phase of deceleration at the end of 2024. In contrast, at the beginning of 2017—when we were out of consensus bullish—earnings revisions breadth and many cyclical gauges were starting to reaccelerate after the manufacturing and commodity downturn of 2015/2016. Looking back on this year, this cadence of policy sequencing did broadly play out—it just happened faster and more dramatically than we expected. Our views on the policy front still appear to be out of consensus. Many industry watchers are questioning whether policies enacted this year will ultimately lead to better growth going forward, especially for the average stock. From our perspective, the policy choices being made are growth positive for 2026 and are largely in line with our ‘run it hot' thesis. There's another factor embedded in our more constructive take. April marked the end of a rolling recession that began three years prior. The final stages were a recession in government thanks to DOGE, a rate of change trough in expectations around AI CapEx growth and trade policy, and a recession in consumer services that is still ongoing. In short, we believe a new bull market and rolling recovery began in April which means it's still early days, and not obvious—especially for many lagging parts of the economy and market. That is the opportunity. The missing ingredient for the typical broadening in stock performance that happens in a new business cycle is rate cuts. Normally, the Fed would have cut rates more in this type of weakening labor market. But due to the imbalances and distortions of the COVID cycle, we think the Fed is later than normal in easing policy, and that has held back the full rotation toward early cycle winners. Ironically, the government shutdown has weakened the economy further, but has also delayed Fed action due to the lack of labor data releases. This is a near-term risk to our bullish 12-month forecasts should delays in the data continue, or lagging labor releases do not corroborate the recent weakness in non-govt-related jobs data. In our view, this type of labor market weakness coupled with the administration's desire to ‘run it hot' means that, ultimately, the Fed is likely to deliver more dovish policy than the market currently expects. It's really just a question of timing. But that is a near-term risk for equity markets and why many stocks have been weaker recently. In short, we believe a new bull market began in April with the end of a rolling recession and bear market. Remember the S&P [500] was down 20 percent and the average S&P stock was down more than 30 percent into April. This narrative remains underappreciated, and we think there is significant upside in earnings over the next year as the recovery broadens and operating leverage returns with better volumes and pricing in many parts of the economy. Our forecasts reflect this upside to earnings which is another reason why many stocks are not as expensive as they appear despite our acknowledgement that some areas of the market may appear somewhat frothy. For the S&P 500, our 12-month target is now 7800 which assumes 17 percent earnings growth next year and a very modest contraction in valuation from today's levels. Our favorite sectors include Financials, Industrials, and Healthcare. We are also upgrading Consumer Discretionary to overweight and prefer Goods over Services for the first time since 2021. Another relative trade we like is Software over Semiconductors given the extreme relative underperformance of that pair and positioning at this point. Finally, we like small caps over large for the first time since March 2021, as the early cycle broadening in earnings combined with a more accommodative Fed provides the backdrop we have been patiently waiting for. We hope you enjoy our detailed report published earlier this week and find it helpful as you navigate a changing marketplace on many levels. Thanks for tuning in. Let us know what you think by leaving us a review. And if you find Thoughts on the Market worthwhile, tell a friend or colleague to try it out!
