A delayed inflation report shows consumer prices rose 2.7% over the past year, coming in below economist expectations. Core inflation, which excludes food and energy, increased 2.6% year over year. In this episode of Real Estate News for Investors, producer Kailyn Bennett breaks down why this CPI report looks different than usual, following a government shutdown that disrupted October data collection. Some figures reflect a two-month window, rather than standard month-to-month changes, adding important context for investors. We look at what's driving inflation now — including food, energy, and shelter costs — and how markets reacted to the softer-than-expected data. 

Scaling a business is slow and unpredictable. Many entrepreneurs don't make it to year five, and even fewer figure out how to scale.But what if the key to unlocking exponential growth was to multiply your efforts through strategic acquisitions?Tom Shipley is the co-founder of Atlantic Coast Brands, founder of Queen City Media, and co-founder of DealCon, one of the fastest-growing M&A ecosystems for entrepreneurs. Tom has built, scaled, and acquired companies across beauty and skin care brands like Hydroxatone, Amazon FBA, media, and ecommerce, generating well over $1B in revenue over his career.In our conversation, Tom shares how acquisitions saved his company during a crisis, the mindset that helped him rebuild after losing millions in revenue overnight, and the frameworks you can use to turn stagnation into exponential growth—all while designing a life and business with intention and time freedom.In this episode, you'll learn: 1.) How programmatic acquisitions can solve cash flow issues, save struggling companies, and 10x enterprise value faster than organic growth alone.2.) Tom's “Add a Zero” philosophy to think bigger which helps to recruit better talent, attract better capital, and unlock strategic breakthroughs.3.) Why masterminds and peer groups are the ultimate force multiplier for entrepreneurs—and how vulnerability can produce life-changing business insights.Show Notes: LifestyleInvestor.com/269Tax 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.

Peter Schiff delivers a stark warning: America is headed for the biggest economic crisis of our lifetimes - not a stock market crash, but a dollar collapse leading to an inflationary depression. He explains why gold hitting $4,300 and silver above $66 are screaming signals of an impending currency crisis, responds to Trump's personal attack calling him a "jerk" and "loser" on Truth Social, and breaks down why both Trump and Biden caused the inflation crisis through massive deficit spending and Fed money printing. Schiff reveals why he's positioned his portfolio for a dollar crash (up 60-120% this year in precious metals), predicts a radical left Democrat will win in 2028, and explains the dark reality: Americans will experience a poor country's economy but with higher prices - unless they protect their wealth now with gold, silver, and foreign assets.This episode is brought to you by VanEck.

New federal jobs data confirms the U.S. labor market softened in October and November. After weeks of delays caused by the government shutdown, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports job losses in October, modest hiring in November, and an unemployment rate rising to 4.6% — the highest level since 2021. In this episode of Real Estate News for Investors, Kathy Fettke breaks down what's driving the slowdown, including sharp cuts in federal employment, slower wage growth, and mixed signals from consumer spending. We also look at which sectors are still adding jobs — like health care and construction — and where losses are mounting, including transportation and leisure and hospitality. Finally, Kathy explains why this cooling labor market matters for real estate investors as we head toward 2026, and what to watch next with inflation data and Federal Reserve policy.

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, everybody! Scott Carson here, and today's episode of The Note Closures Show dives deep into a story that's all too familiar in today's market: a real estate deal gone sideways. If you or someone you know is struggling with properties caught in a changing market, plummeting values, or non-performing notes, this is a must-listen. I'll walk you through a recent, real-life situation where "karma" brought an IRA investor and a fix-and-flipper to my doorstep, looking for a way out of a financial quagmire. We're talking about a "shit sandwich" situation, and I'll share how a proactive, empathetic approach can turn it into something much more palatable.In this eye-opening episode, you'll discover:A Real-Life Distressed Deal: Unpack the details of a Plano, Texas property financed by three IRA investors to a fix-and-flipper. With a $280,000 purchase and an estimated $150,000-$170,000 rehab, the flipper walked with $50,000 up front, only for the deal to unravel.The Market Shift Strikes: Learn how rapidly changing market conditions, especially over the last six months in Texas and beyond, caused property values to drop significantly, leaving a gutted, unlivable property with a non-performing note and silent borrower. The note balance stood at $396,000, far exceeding the current market value and potential rehab costs.Scott Carson: The Unlikely Mediator: Hear how a chance encounter (or "karma") linked Scott to both the investor (Harry) and the fix-and-flipper, whom he recognized from past events. Scott steps in as a third-party neutral to facilitate communication and find a pragmatic solution, saving both parties from further, costly pain.The Power of Deed-in-Lieu & Friendly Foreclosure: Explore why a Deed-in-Lieu of Foreclosure or a "friendly foreclosure" where the borrower deeds the property back can be a win-win. This strategy avoids prolonged, expensive legal battles, protects the borrower's record, and allows the lender to regain control of the asset quickly, even if it means accepting less than the full amount owed.Turning Lemons into Lemonade (or a "Shit Sandwich" into Something Tastier): Understand the empathetic approach to these tough situations. Scott emphasizes that bad things happen to good people and that sometimes the best solution is to cut losses, regain control of the asset, and market it strategically (e.g., with pre-approved hard money financing) to recover as much as possible, moving forward instead of being dragged down.This episode is a testament to the fact that even in the toughest real estate scenarios, solutions exist. By prioritizing communication, empathy, and smart legal strategies like Deed-in-Lieu, you can navigate market downturns and distressed assets more effectively. Don't let bad deals linger and drain your resources.If you're facing a similar "shit sandwich" situation with a fix-and-flip gone wrong or a non-performing note, please reach out. I'm here to help, act as that third-party mediator, and leverage my experience to find a solution that works for everyone involved.Watch the Original VIDEO HERE!Book a Call With Scott HERE!Sign up for the next FREE One-Day Note Class HERE!Sign up for the WCN Membership HERE!Sign up for the next Note Buying For Dummies Workshop HERE!Love the show?

Markets briefly retested the 50-day moving average before rebounding toward break-even, remaining locked in a broader consolidation range. While sell signals are currently in place and relative strength continues to normalize, short-term weakness and choppy trading may persist. Importantly, this pullback is creating a more constructive setup as markets work off oversold conditions, potentially laying the groundwork for renewed buying interest into year-end. That said, seasonal strength is not guaranteed. December has not always delivered positive returns, and risk remains elevated as portfolio managers continue year-end positioning and rebalancing across large-cap, small- and mid-cap, and international markets. Investors should remain focused on risk management, discipline, and flexibility as volatility creates both challenges and tactical opportunities.

Google just stepped into the portal wars… and it might be the most dangerous player yet. Episode 345: The Annual Prediction Special (and the LAST show of the year). We're doing the most satisfying (and brutal) thing possible: - We pull up our 2024 predictions and grade them LIVE Were we right… or dead wrong?  - Then we go on the record with 2026 predictions Rates. Prices. Inventory. Buyer demand. New construction. Investors. Chaos. The headline that changes everything: "GOOGLE is testing "home listings" inside search." So let's ask the scary questions out loud: - Will Google Home Listings end Zillow… or end agents? - If listings live in Google, who owns the consumer?  - Does this become the new "front door" to real estate… or just another ad product? (And yes, we'll talk about what we actually know so far: it's a test, currently seen on mobile in select markets, with built-in "request a tour / contact an agent" style actions.) If you want to know what housing looks like next year, show up tonight and plant your flag. Because next year… we're reviewing the receipts again.

In this episode of Ageless Future, Regan Archibald sits down with wealth strategist Brock Fortner of Stone Century Financial to unpack how optimized health and intelligent money systems work together to create a truly ageless life. Brock explains the key differences between the Vanderbilts and the Rockefellers, why most family wealth disappears by the second or third generation, and how tools like trusts, permanent life insurance, and “family constitutions” can preserve both wealth and values for 365 years or more. They dive into tax strategy, the IRS “playbook,” cash-flow engines, whole life as a family bank, and the power of living in the “gain” instead of chasing a retirement nest egg. Along the way, Brock shares his three core wealth mindsets—genuine curiosity, stewardship over ownership, and generosity—and offers listeners a free copy of What Would the Rockefellers Do? to start redesigning their own financial legacy. Brock Fortner is the founder of StoneCentury Financial and a trusted advisor to high-income families, entrepreneurs, and top investors across the country. A Nashville native, he holds degrees in risk management and insurance, and a masters of finance from Vanderbilt University, and specializes in advanced wealth-building strategies using cash value life insurance, the Rockefeller Method, and private wealth principles. Brock is known for turning complexity into clarity and helping clients build systems that accelerate financial independence. He wrote the foreword to What Would The Rockefellers Do? and works closely with elite communities like The Lifestyle Investor and Tribe of Investors. BROCK:Website: https://stonecenturyfinancial.com/Linkedin: http://www.linkedin.com/in/brockfortnerGet a copy of Brock's book! https://stonecenturyfinancial.com/book AGELESS FUTURE:Book Comprehensive Labs: https://agelessfuture.com/longevity-labs/FREE copy of The Peptide Blueprint: https://agelessfuture.com/blueprintSign up for future Health Accelerator Challenges calls LIVE! https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YZsiUMOzSyqcE8IinC5YEQ#/registrationBooks: https://www.amazon.com/Books-Regan-Archibald/s?rh=n%3A283155%2Cp_27%3ARegan%2BArchibaldArticles: https://medium.com/search?q=Regan+ArchibaldLIKE/FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE AGELESS FUTURE:YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@ReganArchibald / https://www.youtube.com/@Ageless.FutureLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/regan-archibald-ab70b813Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ageless.future/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgelessFutureHealth/DISCLAIMER: Here's the info scoop: everything on this channel is purely for educational and informational kicks—definitely not medical advice.

We welcome economic experts Shamubeel Eaqub, Chief Economist at Simplicity, and Paul McBeth from the Bottom Line, to review a strange year in the markets. Why was the market’s reaction to trade tariffs so unpredictable? Why has market commentary been so pessimistic lately, even as Wall Street approaches new records? Why has NZ’s economy remained sluggish while share markets rose abroad? Has the property investing market learned its lesson? Hear Shamubeel’s theory that it’s been a humbling year for market commentators, and Paul's thoughts on the surprising strength of NZX small caps and Freightways.

This week on Market Mondays we're getting tactical and long-term: your futures trading tip of the week, the biggest mistakes younger investors make chasing fast wins, and the most important investing lessons this year reinforced. We also get personal about the mindset shifts that matter—what we used to disagree with early on, then changed our mind about later, and the questions people should be asking if they actually want to build wealth over decades (not just catch a lucky trade).Then we dive into what's moving markets right now: Oracle as a business and investment, whether the AI narrative tied to SoftBank/OpenAI has pushed expectations too far, and what really caused Friday's sell-off—plus whether it quietly changed market structure more than most people realize. We break down the Coinbase vs. MicroStrategy vs. IBIT debate, talk about whether we're headed toward a real correction or just another emotional shakeout, and if the market is broadening beyond tech or setting up a head fake before leadership narrows again.We also hit the high-volatility conversations: Super Micro's relevance in AI infrastructure, how elite traders handle ES and NQ moving in sync, and whether leveraged ETFs like NVDL/AMDL are advanced tools—or long-term portfolio destroyers in disguise. Plus: quantum computing (obvious leaders vs. sleeper names), and a real discussion on how to balance fitness, family, investing, travel, and content creation without burning out. And we're joined by Derrick Hayes to talk about his business journey and what it really takes to scale.#MarketMondays #Investing #Stocks #FuturesTrading #DayTrading #LongTermInvesting #FinancialLiteracy #WealthBuilding #AI #Oracle #Crypto #Bitcoin #Coinbase #MicroStrategy #IBIT #ETFs #LeveragedETFs #NVDL #AMDL #TechStocks #MarketNews #TradingPsychology #RiskManagement #QuantumComputing #Entrepreneurship #DerrickHayes #EarnYourLeisureSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Our Chief Fixed Income Strategist Vishy Tirupattur responds to some of the feedback from clients on Morgan Stanley's 2026 global outlooks.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. Today, I consider the pushback we've received on our 2026 outlooks – distilling the themes that drew the most debate and our responses to the debates. It's Tuesday, Dec 16th at 3:30pm in New York. It's been a few weeks [since] we published our 2026 outlooks for the global economy and markets. We've had lots of wide-ranging conversations, much dialogue and debate with our clients across the globe on the key themes that we laid out in our outlook. Feedback has ranged from strong alignment to pointed disagreement, with many nuanced views in between. We welcome this dialogue, especially the pushback, as it forces us to re-examine our assumptions and refine our thinking. Our constructive stance on AI and data center-related CapEx, along with the pivotal role we see for the credit market channels, drew notable scrutiny. Our 2026 CapEx projections was anchored by a strong conviction – that demand for compute will far outstrip the supply over the next several years. We remain confident that credit markets across unsecured, structured, and securitized instruments in both public and private domains will be central to the financing of the next wave of AI-driven investments. The crucial point here is that we think this spending will be relatively insensitive to the macro conditions, i.e., the level of interest rates and economic growth. Regarding the level of AI investment, we received a bit of pushback on our economics forecast: Why don't we forecast even more growth from AI CapEx? From our perspective, that is going to be a multi-year process, so the growth implications also extend over time. Our U.S. credit strategists' forecast for IG bond supply – $2.25 trillion in gross issuance; that's up 25 percent year-over-year, or $1 trillion in net issuance; that's 60 percent year-over-year – garnered significant attention. There was some pushback to the volume of the issuance we project. As CapEx growth outpaces revenue and pressures free cash flow, credit becomes a key financing bridge. Importantly, AI is not the sole driver of the surge that we forecast. A pick-up in M&A activity and the resulting increase in acquisition-driven IG supply also will play a key role, in our view. We also received pushback on our expectation for modest widening in credit spreads, roughly 15 basis points in investment grade, which we still think will remain near the low end of the historical ranges despite this massive surge in supply. Some clients argued for more widening, but we note that the bulk of the AI-related issuance will come from high-quality – you know AAA-AA rated issuers – which are currently underrepresented in credit markets relative to their equity market weight. Additionally, continued policy easing – two more rate cuts – modest economic re-acceleration, and persistent demand from yield-focused buyers should help to anchor the spreads. Our macro strategists' framing of 2026 as a transition year for global rates – from synchronized tightening to asynchronous normalization as central banks approach equilibrium – was broadly well received, as was their call for government bond yields to remain broadly range-bound. However, their view that markets will price in a dovish tilt to Fed policy sparked considerable debate. While there was broad agreement on the outlook for yield curve steepening, the nature of that steepening – bull steepening or bear steepening – remained a point of contention. Outside the U.S., the biggest pushback was to the call on the ECB cutting rates two more times in 2026. Our economists disagreed with President Lagarde – that the disinflationary process has ended. Even with moderate continued euro area growth on German fiscal expansion, but consolidation elsewhere, we still see an output gap that will eventually lead inflation to undershoot the ECB's 2 percent target. We also engaged in lively dialogue and debate on China. The key debate here comes down to a micro versus macro story. Put differently, the market is not the economy and the economy is not the market. Sentiment on investments in China has turned around this year, and our strategists are on board with that view. However, from an economics point of view, we see deflation continuing and fiscal policy from Beijing as a bit too modest to spark near-term reflation. Thanks for listening.

What if investing wasn't just about profit, but about people? What if the way we work, spend, and steward resources could reflect God's heart for justice, beauty, and human flourishing? In a world driven by gain, every choice we make—how we work, spend, and invest—flows from what we believe about God and the world he made. If creation is good and every neighbor bears His image, then even our economics becomes a form of witness. This conversation explores how the gospel reshapes our view of wealth, purpose, and human dignity, and how faithful stewardship can point the world toward the goodness of God's kingdom. Our guest is Robin John. Born in a small village in India, Robin immigrated to the U.S. at age eight. His family settled in Boston as the only Indian family in an Irish and Italian neighborhood. After graduating from Tufts University, Robin entered the corporate world, where he saw firsthand the power businesses have to create value and blessings—or to cause harm. Robin is the cofounder and CEO of Eventide, an asset management firm dedicated to honoring God by investing in companies that pursue the common good. Eventide has become one of the largest faith-based asset managers, inspiring people to embrace "investing that makes the world rejoice." Send us your feedback and questions to: podcast@summit.org! 

SpaceX is set to be the world's biggest IPO next year. What impact will this have on Tesla stock? Will money rotate into SpaceX? Will a stronger SpaceX be good for Tesla? Will the two companies partner on some kind of space business? I think there is MASSIVE potential here. Tesla is already rumored to build a dune buggy for the moon and sending Optimus to space.. now they could even potentially supply SpaceX with AI chips from the Tesla Terafab for datacenters in space. SO MUCH potential. I think the IPO will be a big benefit for Tesla investors.

True abundance often comes down to freedom: the freedom to choose how you spend your time, where you live, and who you build your life with. In this solo episode, Amy Sylvis pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to invest calmly and confidently, especially in hands-off opportunities like real estate syndications. Using real examples from active deals, Amy walks listeners through the behind-the-scenes realities of capital raising, timelines, and preparation. This episode is less about chasing the next opportunity and more about building a personal investment checklist that removes stress, prevents last-minute scrambling, and positions you to act with clarity when the right opportunity shows up. Even if real estate is not your focus, these principles apply to anyone who wants to invest with intention rather than urgency Connect with Amy Sylvis:https://www.linkedin.com/in/amysylvis/Contact Us:https://www.sylviscapital.comhttps://www.sylviscapital.com/webinar00:00 Intro01:09 Year-End Reflections and Upcoming Episodes01:42 Understanding Hands-Off Income03:30 Real Estate Syndication Explained06:07 Preparing for Real Estate Investment10:26 Legal and Tax Considerations14:11 Final Tips and Strategies18:48 Conclusion and Farewell
