There is a sector rotation happening and today we're here to discuss it! We also touch on the sudden U.S. conflict with Iran as this is not the time to start reacting emotionally to early headlines, misinformation, and media fear cycles. Keep in mind historical market reactions to prior military strikes; while volatility typically spikes, equity drawdowns have historically been modest and short-lived unless oil supply or credit markets break down. We also highlight that markets are driven more by liquidity and capital flows than headlines and investors should focus on historical patterns, sector positioning, bond duration strategy, and risk management rather than panic, while closely watching oil prices, credit spreads, and bond yields for signs of deeper systemic stress.  We discuss... The concept of the "fog of war," warning listeners not to trust early reports, viral videos, or emotionally charged headlines. Media outlets monetize fear and that investors should avoid panic-driven decisions. Historical data from past U.S. military strikes was reviewed, showing that market drawdowns are typically modest and short-lived. Oil prices spiked on geopolitical risk, but the move was framed as a fear premium rather than confirmed supply disruption. The U.S. dollar was expected to strengthen in the short term as capital seeks safe-haven assets. Sector rotation was highlighted, with money moving out of mega-cap tech and into energy, materials, and defensive sectors. Utilities, staples, and healthcare were identified as traditional late-cycle or risk-off sectors. If capital exits large tech allocations, there are limited sectors large enough to absorb those flows without major price distortions. Bonds were presented as increasingly attractive if interest rates begin to decline. Long-duration bonds tend to benefit most when yields fall due to the inverse price-yield relationship. Lower mortgage rates were projected as a possibility, which could reignite housing demand but also drive home prices higher again. Markets are driven more by liquidity and money flows than by headlines or fundamentals alone. Investors should focus on second- and third-order effects rather than reacting to the immediate shock of war. Credit spreads, bond yields, and oil prices are key indicators to monitor for signs of systemic stress. Remain disciplined, historically grounded, and risk-aware rather than emotionally reactive.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the full show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/sector-rotation-795

How to Scale Rentals Without Investors | Mike Preshman breaks down how Mike went from a tech background to building a 220-unit rental portfolio across New England by reinvesting cash flow, using house hacking, and staying disciplined about equity-building instead of chasing hype. He shares why he avoids outside investors, how he thinks about using debt strategically, what makes acquisitions harder in today's market, and why upgrading asset quality is the path to a more passive long-term business. The conversation also dives into evictions, mentorship, building conviction in your own operating style, and the "probabilistic thinking" mental model Mike uses to make better decisions under uncertainty. _______________________________ If you want to learn how to run your business in 5 hours or less....

In this episode, I address key person risk for founders and CEOs, highlighting the importance of not having the business hinge on a single leader. I discuss strategies for creating robust systems and empowering teams to reduce vulnerabilities and enhance business value for investors. As a CEO coach, I emphasize transitioning to a team-driven culture that fosters stability and effective communication. I provide actionable insights to help leaders build sustainable growth that persists beyond their involvement. Episode Highlights & Time Stamps 0:09 Introduction to Key Person Risk 1:38 Understanding Your Value in Business 4:06 Transitioning from Work to People Focus 4:55 The Importance of Team-Driven Leadership 5:59 Exploring Solutions to Key Person Risk 6:40 Conclusion and Next Steps The Hidden Threat to Business Value: Key Person Risk If the success of a company depends heavily on one individual — often the founder or CEO — the business becomes less valuable to investors or buyers. A company that cannot operate smoothly without its leader signals higher risk, which typically leads to lower valuation multiples. Gene challenges leaders to ask themselves a tough question: If you're the most valuable person in your company, how valuable is the company itself? Moving from Doer to Leader Reducing key person risk requires a shift in leadership identity. Instead of being the primary driver of sales, marketing, or operations, CEOs must transition from task-focused work to people-focused leadership. This shift can be uncomfortable. Founders often feel they can do things faster or better themselves, which keeps them stuck in daily execution. But long-term growth depends on developing decision-makers across the organization. Gene describes this transition as crossing a "leadership ravine" — moving from hands-on contributor to strategic leader who builds systems, confidence, and problem-solving capacity in others. Building a Company That Runs Without You A business becomes more valuable when it is team-driven rather than founder-dependent. Investors and buyers look for: Strong leadership at multiple levels Clear communication and alignment systems Accountability structures Empowered employees who make decisions Processes that continue generating customers and results without the CEO's involvement When these elements are in place, the company can operate smoothly even if the founder steps away — dramatically increasing scalability and valuation potential.

Whitney Elkins-Hutten of PassiveInvesting.com interviews Lisa Moore, a former finance executive turned multifamily investor, about the acquisition of the 18-unit Bernice Apartments in Lansing, a suburb of Chicago. What started as a seemingly turnkey deal quickly revealed unpaid tenants, inaccurate rent rolls, and a complex master lease negotiation. Lisa breaks down how she re-traded the purchase price from $2.1M to $1.7M, structured a bridge loan at 12% interest, and navigated evictions, squatters, and a property management change. She shares how her background in finance and her husband's construction expertise helped them pivot the business plan, underwrite a heavy value-add, and position the asset for refinance. This is a candid look at what really happens during due diligence—and how experienced operators protect returns when deals get messy.

Every real estate investor has at least one deal they would redo if given the chance. Some teach expensive lessons. Others leave scars. In this episode, Brian Hamrick shares a live panel recording from the 2025 Midwest Real Estate Investor Conference, where three experienced investors pull back the curtain on their toughest deals and what they learned the hard way. This is not theory. These are real properties, real numbers, real mistakes, and real consequences. Panelists Featured Ramond Harris – Detroit investor and founder of Harris Family Contracting, sharing the realities of rehabbing in high-risk neighborhoods and managing theft, vandalism, and city challenges. Brooke Veltkamp – Newaygo County investor walking through extreme fixer projects, budget blowouts, and why buying right still matters more than anything else. David Hall – Lansing-based investor, broker, and coach breaking down due diligence failures, permit issues, and why "new" does not always mean "good." Topics Covered Buying properties with hidden deferred maintenance When zero-down and creative financing deals go sideways Fires, theft, vandalism, and city enforcement surprises Roofs, plumbing, HVAC, and inspections that were missed How long projects really take versus the original plan When luck saves a deal and when it does not Risk versus reward in changing market conditions How experienced investors recover, pivot, and move forward Why This Episode Matters This panel is a clear example of what you get at the Midwest Real Estate Investor Conference. Experienced operators sharing real decisions, real consequences, and what they would change if they had the chance. No theory. No highlight reels. Just lessons earned the hard way and explained so you do not have to repeat them. If you want to make better decisions, manage risk more clearly, and avoid common traps, this episode delivers.

In this episode, Duane Mancini sits down with Sarah to unpack her path from healthcare operator to investor and what founders should know when raising capital today. Sarah shares how her experience as the 10th employee at a digital health startup shaped her empathy for founders and the practical lens she brings to diligence, from ICP and pricing to building durable foundations early. The conversation pulls back the curtain on venture mechanics—how syndication and relationships really work, why fundraising is difficult when LPs demand DPI, and how fund structure, lifecycle, and co-investments can shape outcomes for startups.

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews Daniel McDonnell co-founder of Maple Movement, shares how severe gut health issues during his professional Ironman career led him to discover the power of maple syrup as a natural fuel source and launch Maple Movement. What began as a house-deposit gamble quickly evolved into a fast-growing gut-friendly energy gel brand now stocked in 125+ stores across Australia and New Zealand. Daniel opens up about bootstrapping the business, learning margins from scratch, managing rapid growth from his living room, and transitioning to a 3PL. He dives into brand positioning, organic content strategy, subscription revenue, and building a lean, aligned team. It's a raw, practical story of turning personal pain into a scalable FMCG business with purpose and momentum. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Daniel McDonnell, the hardest part of growing a small business is keeping up with rapid growth before scalable systems are fully in place, especially during big sales months when demand spikes beyond operational capacity. He shared how he and his wife were packing nearly 95 orders a day from their living room while trying to maintain a personal brand touch, highlighting that the real challenge wasn't generating sales but managing growth sustainably while building the right infrastructure to support it. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Daniel said his favorite business book that's helped him the most is "Built to Sell" by John Warrillow — a practical guide about structuring and scaling a business so it's not dependent on the founder and becomes sellable. He's mentioned it shaped how he thinks about systems, value creation, and building something that can run beyond him. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? According to Daniel McDonnell, one podcast he highly recommends for small business growth is Chew the Fat by the Greive brothers, where they share real, relatable stories after building and exiting Realbase. He values listening to founders who have scaled and exited businesses, as their practical lessons help avoid costly mistakes. Daniel also emphasizes learning directly from experienced mentors and operators rather than figuring everything out the hard way. For him, real-world business conversations and founder-led insights have been the most impactful learning resources. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Daniel McDonnell would point to a tool that helps you systemize and scale without chaos, and one he personally recommends is Notion — it's where he organizes products, SOPs, content calendars, order processes, and more in one place so nothing slips through the cracks. He also emphasizes tools for automating the parts of your business that don't need manual work, like Mailchimp or Klaviyo for email automation, and Shopify + a good 3PL integration to handle orders cleanly as volume grows. For analytics and ads, basic dashboards like Google Analytics and Facebook/Meta Business Suite help you make smarter decisions instead of guessing. The key, he says, isn't having every tool under the sun — it's picking the ones that actually save you time and help you standardize your processes so the business can scale. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? According to Daniel McDonnell, on day one he would tell himself to raise far more capital than he thinks he needs, understand margins and cash flow from the start, and build scalable systems early—because growth can come fast, but without enough cash and structure, it becomes far more stressful than it needs to be.

Live from Joe's mom's basement (where humility is encouraged and spreadsheets are optional), the crew tackles a deceptively simple question. If most people think they're above average with money, what advice actually helps someone who isn't? Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, Doug, Jesse Cramer, and guest Whitney Hanson (Money Nerds podcast) run a thought experiment inspired by Morgan Housel's observation that nearly everyone believes they're financially smarter than the median. What straightforward moves keep someone from needing last minute financial Hail Marys? The answer isn't flashy. It's systems. Whitney kicks things off with a practical starting point: identify your knowledge gaps. Tools like Investor.gov quizzes can reveal blind spots, and she suggests theming your learning (one focus per month) so financial literacy doesn't feel overwhelming. From there, the conversation turns to controllables: cash flow, savings rate, lifestyle inflation, and career capital. Because while markets bounce around, your habits are yours. The gang also introduces the idea of a tactile money leak audit, physically reviewing spending to spot waste that autopilot budgeting apps can miss. It's less glamorous than crypto speculation but far more effective. Investing gets reframed too. Instead of treating it like a mysterious Wall Street game, they suggest thinking of it as owning small pieces of companies you already know and use. Start small. Automate it. Build reps. Confidence follows action. Insurance and estate planning round out the episode. The crew urges listeners to shop multiple advisors, understand policy details before signing, use AI to help decode fine print without blindly trusting it, and avoid overconfidence just because something sounds right. Doug keeps things lively with trivia revealing that Johnny Carson's 1982 DUI fine was a very specific $603, and OG once again proves suspiciously good at guessing. What You'll Learn: Why most people overestimate their financial knowledge and what to do about it How to identify and close your personal money knowledge gaps The key financial variables you actually control How to perform a simple money leak audit Why small, automatic investing beats waiting for the perfect moment How to make investing feel familiar instead of intimidating The basics everyone should understand about insurance and estate planning Why repetition builds financial confidence faster than theory The Big Takeaway: You don't need advanced tactics. You need consistent systems. Focus on what you control. Automate the boring stuff. Learn one thing at a time. Build margin. Repeat. Because the goal isn't to be above average. It's to be steady enough that you never need a desperate Hail Mary. This Episode Is For You If: You feel like everyone else has money figured out except you Financial advice usually feels too complicated or assumes knowledge you don't have You're tired of feeling behind and want simple systems that work You want to build confidence through action, not just theory You believe steady progress beats trying to be perfect Question for You: What was the first simple money habit that changed your trajectory? Share it in the Spotify comments or The Basement Facebook group. Your small win might be exactly what another Stacker needs to hear.

In this episode, Matty A. breaks down why artificial intelligence isn't just a tech trend — it's a systemic force reshaping markets. From warnings by leading financial figures about AI-driven instability to how rapid AI adoption could create market fragility, Matty explains the risks and signals that could precede a major economic disruption. At the same time, he shows why commercial real estate investors with a deep understanding of capital flows, credit cycles, and AI's impact on markets can position themselves to profit while others panic.What You'll Learn• The Risk Side:Leading financial voices are expressing concern that AI-driven trading, model herding, and leveraged bets could amplify market swings and structural instability.Research suggests AI-powered systems interacting with one another may make markets more fragile, potentially worsening downturns or creating rapid sell-offs.Warnings from regulators and economic surveys have highlighted that an AI investment bubble could trigger a broader financial shock under the right conditions.• The Opportunity Side:Investors who understand how AI influences credit, asset pricing, and market psychology can spot dislocations early.Smart CRE investors use disciplined underwriting, scenario planning, and risk management to protect emerging income streams and capitalize on distressed pricing while others retreat.Knowledge of AI's systemic effects gives you an edge — not by joining every trend, but by preparing for volatility and allocating capital where value persists.Key TakeawaysAI's explosion in finance and markets could introduce new vulnerabilities — not because of AI itself, but how the market adopts and amplifies it.A potential crisis doesn't happen because of a single technology — it happens when leverage, optimism, and systemic exposure collide.Savvy CRE investors aren't waiting for certainty — they're watching signals, adjusting risk, and positioning for asymmetric outcomes.Final ThoughtUnderstanding how AI shapes credit, markets, and risk isn't just academic — it's a practical advantage that can protect your wealth and reveal powerful opportunities when others are reacting emotionally.Episode Sponsored By:Discover Financial Millionaire Mindcast Shop: Buy the Rich Life Planner and Get the Wealth-Building Bundle for FREE!

Dan Nathan hosts Peter Boockvar to discuss the rapid growth of private credit, arguing it has replaced bank lending but now faces rising defaults, potential liquidity mismatches as retail capital enters evergreen funds, and limited stress-testing in a downturn; they cite pressure in leveraged loans, gating/redemptions, and examples like Blue Owl financing tied to CoreWeave's asset-heavy model and customer concentration. They connect credit stress to equity risk via the capital structure and watchpoints like the LSTA leveraged loan index, high yield spreads, and HYG. Boockvar outlines a leadership shift away from hyperscalers toward equal-weight and “boring” sectors like energy and staples, while warning a deeper tech decline could still pull markets down. They cover oil's inflation implications, a challenging labor market, cautious consumers per Walmart/Home Depot/Lowe's, bullish long-term gold/silver dynamics, stronger international performance, and Japan's rising long-end yields affecting carry trades and global flows.

Mortgage rates have officially dropped below 6% for the first time in more than three years. The average 30-year fixed rate is now 5.98%, according to Freddie Mac — a key psychological and financial shift for the housing market. In this episode, Kathy breaks down what lower rates mean for buying power, inventory levels, and home prices. Zillow reports that the median-income household has gained more than $30,000 in purchasing power compared to last year, putting over 80,000 additional homes within reach. But with prices still up roughly 50% since 2020 and rising for the 31st straight month, affordability remains a challenge. Will sub-6% rates bring buyers back into the market? Could it loosen the lock-in effect and increase listings? And what does this mean for real estate investors in 2026? We'll explain what's changing — and what isn't.

After a decade of outperformance, U.S. stocks have recently cooled. Peter and Jeff name several factors contributing to this shift, share major factors in the United States' favor long term and discuss where else investors are going with their dollars. Plus, get their tips of the month.  Hosted by Creative Planning's Director of Financial Planning, Jeff Stolper, and President, Peter Mallouk, this podcast takes a closer look into topics that affect investors.

Unlocking Entrepreneurial Success: Achieving Strategic Alignment with Ike EzeIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sits down with Ike Eze, the Managing Partner at Beta Ventures and author of The Founder Fit: Finding the Business That's Right For You. They explore Ike's journey from mechanical engineering into the high-stakes world of venture capital, specifically focusing on the booming startup ecosystem in Africa. This conversation provides a masterclass for founders and investors alike, emphasizing that while a great idea is a start, long-term success is ultimately determined by the deep alignment between a founder's unique skills and the specific demands of their venture.Maximizing Impact Through the Founder Fit FrameworkThe concept of "founder fit" serves as the critical connective tissue between a raw business idea and a scalable, resilient enterprise. Ike explains that many entrepreneurs face stagnation not because their product lacks a market, but because they are personally ill-equipped for the specific type of leadership their business requires. For example, a brilliant technical builder may struggle to lead a sales-heavy organization, creating a friction point that eventually leads to burnout or operational failure. By conducting a rigorous self-assessment to identify whether one is a builder, a marketer, or an operator, founders can either pivot their business model to match their strengths or intentionally bring in complementary partners to fill vital talent gaps.In emerging markets like the African startup scene—which Ike describes as being in a rapid, "early-dotcom" style growth phase—this fit becomes even more essential due to unique infrastructural and cultural challenges. Entrepreneurs in these regions often find success by identifying "invisible" local problems that global giants overlook, such as the need for localized facial recognition technology like Smile ID. Success in these environments requires more than just technical prowess; it demands a founder who possesses the cultural context and localized knowledge to adapt Western business models into something that truly serves a specific population. When the founder's personal mission aligns with these acute market needs, the resulting business is far more likely to achieve the "unicorn" status seen increasingly across the continent.For investors, the shift toward a founder-fit lens requires a move away from purely data-driven metrics toward a more human-centric evaluation of potential. Ike suggests that investors must become more patient and hands-on, recognizing that emerging markets have different regulatory and infrastructural timelines than Silicon Valley. By supporting diverse teams that demonstrate a clear alignment between their lived experience and the problem they are solving, venture capitalists can help mitigate the risks of early-stage investing. Ultimately, the goal is to ensure that the individual at the helm has the intrinsic resilience and specialized skill set required to navigate the inevitable pivots and pressures of the entrepreneurial journey.About Ike EzeIke Eze is a seasoned entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and the Founder and CEO of Beta Ventures. With a background in mechanical engineering and three successful tech exits in Silicon Valley, Ike now focuses on empowering the next generation of African innovators. He is a recognized thought leader on emerging markets and the author of a definitive guide on founder-market alignment.About The Founder Fit: Finding the Business That's Right For YouThe Founder Fit is a strategic framework and book authored by Ike Eze that guides entrepreneurs through the process of aligning their personal strengths with their business ventures. Through Beta Ventures, Ike applies these principles to invest in high-growth startups within the African ecosystem, focusing on companies that leverage localized innovation to solve large-scale problems.Links Mentioned in This EpisodeThe Founder Fit: Finding the Business That's Right For You (Amazon)Ike Eze on LinkedInKey Episode HighlightsThe Founder Fit Framework: Why the same business idea can fail or flourish based entirely on the alignment of the founder's intrinsic strengths.African Startup Ecosystem: Navigating the "early-dotcom" style growth phase and identifying unique opportunities in emerging markets.Solving "Invisible" Problems: How Smile ID successfully leveraged localized technical innovation to address gaps ignored by global tech giants.The Investor's Pivot: Why evaluating a founder's lived experience and market context is more critical than standard Silicon Valley metrics.Closing the Talent Gap: Strategies for identifying whether you are a builder, marketer, or operator and how to build a team around your blind spots.ConclusionThis conversation with Ike Eze underscores that the most successful ventures are those where the founder's identity and the business's mission are perfectly synchronized. By prioritizing this alignment and focusing on localized solutions for underserved markets, entrepreneurs can build businesses that are not only profitable but also profoundly impactful.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

In this episode of Molecule to Market, you'll go inside the outsourcing space of the global drug development sector with Banks Bourne, Founder & Chief Executive Officer at Bourne Partners.   Your host, Raman Sehgal, discusses the pharmaceutical and biotechnology supply chain with Banks, covering:   How making a bet in the right place at the right time sparked an extraordinary journey in pharma investing. The founding of Bourne Partners and a twenty five plus year ride through multiple market cycles. Lessons from hundreds of deals, and why the best investments are often the most complex and hardest won. Why running from ego and listening obsessively to clients is one of the most underrated advantages in private equity. Why private equity has become increasingly commoditised, and why Banks believes momentum is building and sentiment is turning positive heading into 2026. As Founder and CEO, Banks oversees all business operations and direct investment opportunities at Bourne Partners. He and the firm have been party to more than $10 billion of transactions in the pharmaceutical (“pharma”), pharma services, and consumer healthcare sectors. Banks is also the founder of Tanner Pharma Group, a pharma services company dedicated to providing managed access, commercialization, and clinical trials services to patients and partners in more than 100 countries.   For almost 20 years, Bourne Partners has transacted with nearly all major pharmaceutical and specialty pharmaceuticals companies around the world, including Banks' initial investment in King Pharmaceuticals in the late 1990's. This investment introduced Banks to the pharmaceutical world and jump started his interest in the healthcare sector. Since then, he has invested in more than 200 private companies / assets.   While Banks has derived great satisfaction by offering focused advisory services to, and investing in, pharma, healthcare, and consumer-oriented companies that need strategic and operational insights, he is even more gratified knowing that his work has helped companies to improve the health and well-being of patients across the world. Banks is passionate about providing healthcare, and specifically pharmaceuticals, to less fortunate patients, as demonstrated by supporting The Max Foundation, Partners in Health, The Bourne Foundation, The Levine Children's Hospital, and other non-profit organizations. He received a B.A. degree in Business Management (Magna Cum Laude) from North Carolina State University and an M.B.A. from Wake Forest University. He is a member of Young Presidents Organization (YPO). Molecule to Market is also sponsored by Bora Pharmaceuticals, and supported by Lead Candidate.

The White House is proposing a new housing policy that could limit how many single-family homes some investors can own. Under the proposal, investors who own more than 100 single-family rental properties could be restricted from buying additional homes. That's a much lower threshold than many in the industry expected. In this episode, Kathy breaks down what the 100-home cutoff means, how many investors it actually affects, and where those properties are concentrated. She also looks at the data on what these mid-sized operators are buying — including workforce housing — and how much of the overall housing stock they control.

For 30 or 40 years, a paycheck simply showed up. Then one day, it stops. Now you're staring at a portfolio and asking: "How do I turn this into reliable income for the rest of my life…without overpaying the IRS or outliving my money?"  It's no surprise so many retirees gravitate toward dividends. They feel like a replacement paycheck. In fact, the majority of investors say they prefer dividends and interest over capital gains to fund retirement. But retirement income planning isn't just about generating cash flow. It's about creating sustainable income from a finite pool of capital while coordinating taxes and the rest of your retirement plan. In this episode, I break down new research on dividend investing and explain why the most popular income strategy may be far less efficient than it appears. I also share what the evidence suggests about building a portfolio and a plan that actually supports long-term retirement success. Because when it comes to funding your retirement, small structural decisions compound into very large outcomes. ***
