John Bartleman, the CEO of TradeStation, is here today to talk about how AI will transform the future of trading. John shares his background and the evolution of TradeStation from early backtesting software to a full-service broker, while explaining how its roots in systematic trading differentiated it from competitors. He outlines major industry shifts, along with the benefits and challenges of dark pools and institutional order flow. We also dive into how AI is transforming trading, as John describes his own use of MCP-enabled AI agents for research, portfolio analysis, trade structuring, and more. AI may radically reshape fintech analytics and asset management, enabling traders to work more efficiently and pushing the industry toward fewer traditional money managers and more AI-driven decision systems. We discuss...  Record money market fund levels are being widely misinterpreted, as the balances often represent defensive positioning rather than pent-up buying power. Many investors mistakenly assume large cash balances automatically signal a coming equity influx, ignoring the behavioral reasons people hold cash. The tariff headline created rapid swings in futures markets, revealing how sensitive positioning is ahead of the election. A sharp crypto drawdown triggered widespread stop-loss cascades across major tokens, amplifying downside pressure in a classic liquidity vacuum. Seasonal trends typically provide a tailwind this time of year, but macro uncertainty is preventing markets from fully leaning into the pattern. Investors are observing a notable rotation away from mega-cap tech and toward value-oriented and small-cap sectors. The dispersion between the top seven tech stocks and the rest of the index remains near historic extremes. Elevated cash levels and volatility suggest institutional investors are selectively adding risk rather than buying broadly. Market breadth is improving modestly, but not enough yet to signal a durable trend reversal. Short-term traders are capitalizing on intraday volatility spikes driven by headlines and algos. Longer-term investors remain focused on earnings resilience and margin stability across sectors. Companies with global exposure are expressing concern about potential policy shifts after the election. Energy and industrials are gaining attention as potential beneficiaries of a reflationary environment. Tech remains bifurcated between AI-driven leaders and more traditional software names experiencing deceleration. Crypto markets continue to influence risk appetite, even among investors who do not directly hold digital assets.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Barbara Friedberg | Barbara Friedberg Personal Finance Diana Perkins | Trading With Diana 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 show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/the-future-of-trading-john-bartleman-766

In this week's solo episode, John Casmon steps away from guest interviews to break down one of the most misunderstood topics in multifamily investing: underwriting. After speaking at the Big Deal Summit in Columbus, John shares the real-world framework he uses to analyze deals—not just in spreadsheets, but in practice. From setting clear investment criteria to identifying operational inefficiencies, John walks through how successful investors combine vision, market insight, and execution to drive lasting results.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here.     Key Takeaways Underwriting isn't about the spreadsheet—it's about the vision, people, and execution Always define your buy box and end goals before analyzing numbers Focus on markets with both macro strength and micro-level renter desirability Investors don't pay premiums for plumbing or electric—focus on visible value Operational inefficiencies are gold if you know how to identify and fix them Don't assume you can operate better than a seasoned owner without proof Stress test your assumptions: What happens if the plan breaks?     Topics The Real Goal of Underwriting Spreadsheets don't reflect operations—real estate is about people, not numbers Get clarity on what kind of asset and community you're trying to build Defining Your Buy Box Understand your own criteria before chasing ROI or IRR Why Cincinnati and surrounding markets meet John's standards for long-term growth Macro and Micro Market Selection How renter desirability shapes submarket selection Population growth ≠ renter demand—context matters Value-Add the Right Way Tenants won't pay more for new pipes—focus on kitchens, lighting, appliances Target properties with updated mechanicals so your upgrades actually add value Operational Inefficiencies to Look For Low occupancy, slow turn times, bloated expenses, and misaligned staffing Why seasoned operators aren't always "mismanaging"—stay humble Creating vs. Assuming Value Ask questions before opening a spreadsheet—what is the business plan? Don't guess your way through the numbers; know what levers create value Stress Testing the Deal Underwrite break-even points and failure scenarios Real story: How one business plan unraveled when resident profiles clashed Final Thoughts on Strategy Vision before budget—start with what you want to create IRR matters, but timing and exit assumptions often fail Know your buyer—plan your renovations around future investor demand

In 2021, at COP26, the International Accounting Standards Board announced it would create a standard for this reporting. It wants to integrate sustainability reporting with traditional IFRS accounting. Should firms be compelled by regulators to disclose their impact on the climate in their corporate reporting? Investors value convergence in sustainability reporting standards, but they are facing stiff opposition both in the US and Europe – even while developing economies embrace the new regime. Lucrezia Reichlin of the London Business School and CEPR talked to Tim Phillips on the progress to sustainability standards, the scope of reporting, who wants it, and who's objecting to it.

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.

Brace yourself: gold and silver are gearing up for a major bull market. Don Durrett, Gold and Silver Mining Stock Analyst at goldstockdata.com, breaks down the key signals every investor needs to watch. He explains how silver's upside accelerates as gold rises, outlines possible price scenarios ahead, and examines the structural pressure points forming in the precious metals market. Don also discusses why he believes the U.S. is trapped in a “doom loop” of rising debt, deficits, and money printing.He also dives into the macro picture: how the Ukraine war accelerated a global shift away from Western financial dominance, why mining stocks behave differently from traditional equities, and why only a handful of silver ETFs exist worldwide.Watch the full interview to learn how to navigate the financial stress building ahead and position yourself before the next big move.Check out: https://www.goldstockdata.comWatch the full YouTube interview here: https://youtu.be/rdhjCrKGvdkAnd follow us to stay updated: https://www.youtube.com/@GlobalOneMedia

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.

The billionaires poised to cash in on AI are downright GIDDY! Are the rest of us really that enthusiastic about our AI future?

Western Digital (WDC) has more room to run, according to BofA. Diane King Hall explains the firm's price target hike and why hard disk drive demand is a key piece to its bullish outlook. Palo Alto Networks (PANW) slid slightly to the downside despite posting strong earnings and guidance. Investors appear to have questions around the company's $3.35 billion acquisition of Chronosphere. In the retail space, Diane notes the massive post-earnings sell-off in Bath & Body Works (BBWI). ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.The S&P 500 is already slipping into a bearish downtrend, and one of the biggest names in market history is sounding the alarm again. The investor who famously called the 2008 crash is back with a new warning, and this time he says the setup could be even worse. In this video, we walk through what he is saying, why he thinks AI stocks are in bubble territory, and what the charts actually reveal once you cut through the hype.This one gets right into the real story behind AI valuations, trend direction, and how major stocks like Nvidia and Palantir actually behave when the market is weakening. You also see exactly how stage one, stage two, stage three, and stage four cycles show up on real charts like Tesla, Cisco, Bank of America, and more. If you have ever wondered why bubbles form, why they burst, and how regular investors get trapped in the boom and bust cycle, this breakdown explains it in simple, no-nonsense language.Right in the middle of everything, we take a practical look at how trend alignment works using the 10 EMA, 20 EMA, and 50 EMA. This pulls back the curtain on why counter trend trades are so difficult and why following the trend matters far more than trying to predict what happens next.Here is some of what you will get inside:✅ Why AI stocks are acting like a bubble✅ How market cycles form and why traders ignore the warning signs✅ Why shorting strong names in an uptrend is a dangerous move✅ What market breadth reveals about real buying and selling pressure✅ How past bubbles show the difference between buying smart and buying lateWe also dig into why this environment is not the same as the dot com bubble. Yes, money is pouring into AI. Yes, valuations are elevated. But today, the Federal Reserve is loosening money supply, lowering rates, and ending quantitative tightening. That means the “needle” that popped the dot com bubble is not the same needle that would pop an AI bubble today, which makes the timing and outcome very different.You will also hear an eye-opening discussion about the three possible needle points that could burst the bubble: the job market getting hit by rapid AI adoption, sky-high investor expectations that companies cannot meet forever, and simple value exhaustion as too much money chases too few winning stocks.On top of that, there is a breakdown of the OVTLYR Trend Template, why systematic entries and exits work, how expectancy plays into long-term returns, and why emotional decisions like FOMO and panic selling almost always end badly. If you want to avoid riding the boom up and then giving it all back on the bust, this is the kind of analysis that keeps you grounded.If you are looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk, stick around. You will walk away with a clearer, calmer way to approach the market no matter what bubble people say is forming next.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd.

Defense technology has shifted from a social liability in Silicon Valley to commanding 35-40% of venture capital allocation—up from a historical 10%. This isn't just trend-following; it reflects fundamental market dynamics as SaaS becomes hypercompetitive and AI lowers barriers to entry, pushing capital toward deep tech where moats still exist. Blacklake, a defense holdco based in Austin, helps emerging defense companies navigate government procurement and expand into Europe, Asia-Pacific, and allied markets. In this episode, Jeff Crusey, EVP of Technology & Acquisition at Blacklake, reveals the emerging defense tech playbook, explains why lobbying ROI dwarfs traditional GTM spending, and details what actually matters when hardware meets government procurement. Topics Discussed: Why VC capital is rotating from SaaS to deep tech and defense The defense tech go-to-market playbook versus enterprise SaaS mechanics SBIR grant programs as non-dilutive capital for hardware development Lobbying and appropriations as core revenue drivers, not nice-to-haves Field deployment and operator feedback as the only viable iteration strategy Investor evaluation criteria for hardware-intensive defense businesses Emerging threat vectors in Arctic defense and orbital domain awareness GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Launch lobbying concurrent with SBIR Phase 1 applications: Companies initiating lobbying and appropriations work at the moment they apply for SBIR grants hit revenue milestones materially faster than those treating government affairs as a later-stage function. This means seed-stage companies maintain Capitol Hill presence—a pattern that didn't exist five years ago. The talent profile matters: government affairs hires need proven relationships within specific congressional committees and appropriations staff. Initial engagements typically involve external lobbying advisors with established networks, transitioning in-house at Series A when contract pipeline justifies dedicated headcount. This is consistently the highest-ROI channel in defense GTM. Optimize for deployment speed over system perfection: Modern conflict operates as continuous technological adaptation where capabilities become obsolete within weeks, not years. Companies achieving persistent field presence with operators—not laboratory perfection—win iterative cycles. The tactical approach: deploy minimum viable hardware to operational environments, capture real-world performance data and failure modes, then rapidly incorporate feedback into next iterations. This contradicts traditional defense procurement assumptions about "exquisite systems" and requires founders to resist over-engineering before battlefield validation. Solve the prototype funding problem through non-dilutive capital: Defense investors require working prototypes before capital deployment due to hardware risk profiles—fundamentally different from software's low marginal cost of iteration. This creates a chicken-and-egg problem: prototypes require capital, but capital requires prototypes. The solution path combines bootstrapping to early proof-of-concept, then leveraging SBIR Phase 1 grants (tens of thousands) to reach demonstrable prototype stage. Phase 2 awards (single-digit millions) fund production validation. Strategic founders pursue direct-to-Phase-2 pathways when possible, compressing the timeline from concept to validated demand signal. Strip technical complexity from investor communications: Defense founders with deep domain expertise consistently over-index on technical sophistication during fundraising conversations, losing investor attention before reaching commercial traction narratives. VCs evaluate market timing, defensibility, and path to scale—not engineering elegance. The correction: communicate technology at middle-school comprehension levels. This isn't condescension; it's recognizing that capital allocators optimize for portfolio construction, not technical peer review. Founders often feel they're "dumbing down" their innovations, but clarity on problem-solution fit and market size matters infinitely more than technical specifications during early fundraising stages. Treat SBIR phases as progressive demand validation, not just funding: The phased SBIR structure functions as government-backed demand signaling: Phase 1 validates concept feasibility, Phase 2 confirms development viability, Phase 3 demonstrates production readiness for potential program of record status. Investors decode these phases as risk reduction milestones. Phase 1 awards indicate government interest; Phase 2 awards (especially direct-to-Phase-2 or enhanced Phase 2) signal validated customer pull; Phase 3 contracts position companies for program of record awards worth hundreds of millions annually. Beyond capital, SBIR progression provides founder-market fit evidence and customer commitment that traditional LOIs cannot match in defense contexts. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

America isn't just leading the AI race; it's increasingly built on it. Investor–author Ruchir Sharma joins Bankless to unpack why U.S. growth, stock gains, and even debt complacency are now tethered to a single story, and what a sensible hedge looks like. We trace how U.S. dominance happened, what could puncture the current euphoria, and where the real diversification lives: quality stocks that have lagged, broad ex-US exposure with currency tailwinds, and selective bets in India, China, and reform winners like Greece and Poland. We also tackle the “gold + stocks up together” puzzle, why that correlation can bite in a tightening cycle, and Ruchir's “two cheers” case for Bitcoin as a portfolio asset whose utility still has room to grow. ---

High leverage in derivatives markets (funding rates flipped negative) created a cascade: one sell triggered stops, pulling prices lower and wiping out more positions. Weekend and low-volume trading exacerbated the drop—daily spot volume fell to $2 billion (vs. $50 billion peaks in 2021), making BTC vulnerable to amplified moves.

Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net outflows of $1.1 billion over the past 48 hours—the largest weekly redemptions since March 2025—driven by institutions like BlackRock's IBIT and Fidelity's FBTC. This reversed months of inflows that had propped up prices earlier in the year. https://twitter.com/ColonelTowner/status/1989700368951906382?s=20   Political/Rights https://twitter.com/CMDROpAtLargeCA/status/1990435847611552052?s=20 https://twitter.com/DHSgov/status/1990414982060581351?s=20   removal by an immigration judge from November 4, 2014.
