Podcasts about liquidity

In this episode, Raoul Pal and Julien Bittel explain their “Everything Code” framework showing how global debt cycles, demographics, and liquidity drive all asset prices. They argue fiat debasement is running at ~8% annually, meaning only tech stocks and crypto have outperformed over time, while gold just preserves purchasing power. They discuss the societal and economic implications of AI replacing human labor, the end of traditional recessions, why liquidity will keep increasing to roll debts, and how this cycle could mirror or exceed 2017's asset booms.

What is capitalism, really? Drawing on Adam Smith, Douglass North, and his own experience as a teacher and economist, economist Michael Munger of Duke University discusses three stages of economic development with EconTalk's Russ Roberts: voluntary exchange, markets, and capitalism. Along the way, the conversation explores the moral and institutional foundations that make impersonal exchange possible, the transformative power of the division of labor, and how capitalism uniquely enables "time travel" through liquidity and equity finance. The conversation closes with a discussion of human needs beyond material well-being.

My guest today is Mark Moss, a serial entrepreneur, investor, and educator in Bitcoin and macroeconomics. He's the founder of Market Disruptors and a partner at the Bitcoin Opportunity Fund. In this episode, Mark explains why fiat currencies collapse through inflation over decades, not overnight, and how the U.S. is using tariffs and debt expansion to stay afloat. We dive into why the 60/40 portfolio is obsolete, how Bitcoin acts as a portfolio “cheat code,” and why investing in Bitcoin infrastructure is key to building the future. We also discuss personal branding as a tool for sovereignty in the digital age, and why owning your voice matters as much as owning your wealth. Above all, this is a conversation about hope, brought to life by Mark's trademark optimism and his belief that we are stepping into a new era of innovation and prosperity.► This episode is part of the "Bitcoin Vegas 2025 Special" in collaboration with Ben Samocha, Founder of Israel's CryptoJungle and Crypto Talks podcast.► If you got value, please like, comment, share, follow and support my work.

In this episode of Beer and Money, Ryan Burklo and Alex Collins discuss the common financial question of whether individuals should overpay on their mortgages. They explore the implications of mortgage overpayment on cash flow, financial stress, and overall financial planning. The conversation emphasizes the importance of liquidity and how having access to cash can alleviate financial worries, especially as individuals approach retirement. Through various strategies, they illustrate how managing cash flow effectively can lead to better financial outcomes and peace of mind. Check out our website:  beerandmoney.net For a quick assessment of your current financial life go to: https://www.livingbalancesheet.com/lbsVision/lite/RyanBurklo Takeaways The top financial question is whether to overpay on a mortgage. Many clients feel financially stressed despite having good incomes. Cash flow and liquidity are crucial for financial peace of mind. Overpaying on a mortgage can reduce long-term debt stress. Having cash reserves can provide opportunities and reduce anxiety. Financial planning should consider both cash flow and balance sheet. Real-life financial decisions often differ from spreadsheet calculations. Peace of mind is a valuable aspect of financial planning. Strategies should be tailored to individual circumstances and needs. Liquidity can sometimes be more important than maximizing returns.

Welcome to Navigating Bitcoin's Noise, the podcast where we cut through the clutter and bring you the clearest insights on Bitcoin. I'm your host, Kane McGukin, and today I'm joined by fellow investor, macro thinker, and data modeler Matthew Mežinskis. In this episode, I talk with Matthew about how Bitcoin may follow a power law curve — not just in price, but in adoption and global liquidity impact. We dive into the models behind exponential vs. proportional growth. Plus, we explore what global liquidity really means and how investors can position themselves for what's coming. If you're trying to understand Bitcoin's place in the global financial system and where the capital flows next, you're in the right place. So, sit back, relax, and let's get started. Kane McGukinX: https://twitter.com/kanemcgukin kanemcgukin.substack.com Matthew MežinskisX: https://x.com/1basemoneyporkopolis.io/topmoney

Episode 63: Hedge Fund Offering Terms, Part 2: Liquidity Today is the second in a series of Tokens of Wisdom episodes walking through the main offering terms for an open-ended fund, aka a hedge fund.  One of the first things I do with new fund clients is take them through a fund questionnaire to determine the offering terms for their new fund. This is usually a one hour conversation, at the end of which I have most of what I need to draft the fund's offering documents. Since I know ToW listeners like it short and sweet, I'm going to break this up into a handful of different episodes. Today's episode discusses liquidity terms. Key Points From This Episode: How do hedge fund managers think about liquidity provisions?What's the tension between manager and investor?Common liquidity restrictions/mechanisms.What variables are relevant for each mechanism? Disclaimer: This show is for informational purposes only.

Cardano DeFi is heating up this winter with a flurry of activity across lending, perpetuals, stablecoins, and community engagement.Strike Finance has now opened liquidity provisioning for users, allowing ADA holders to deposit funds that fuel leverage trading on the platform. This significantly boosts available liquidity and increases max position sizes. Liquidity providers and $STRIKE stakers benefit from trading fees, with usage metrics already trending upward.Flow, a new perpetual lending platform on Cardano, is currently holding a token sale. With 5 million ADA raised in just one day, community demand is clear. The platform promises loans without maturity dates and will enable users to use the $FLOW token for staking, governance, and pool creation. The token sale is pro-rata and fully decentralised, with a 68% public allocation.A major proposal is also making waves—allocating $100 million USD worth of ADA from the Cardano Treasury into stablecoins, Bitcoin, and other assets to create a sovereign wealth fund. Advocates see this as a critical move to inject liquidity and kickstart Cardano DeFi. Concerns remain around sell pressure and execution, but overall sentiment seems to favour the plan as a needed catalyst.USDM's Jillian provided valuable insight into how yield works in fiat-backed stablecoins, explaining how platforms like Coinbase offer interest through profit-sharing agreements, while issuers like Moneta Digital (behind USDM) are legally prohibited from doing the same directly. USDM needs to reach 150–200 million AUM to begin yielding returns via DeFi partners like Minswap or Liquid.On the lighter side, SNEK.FUN continues to innovate with new community tools including live wallet-linked chat during token sales. They're also launching 1,111 unique figurines, each signed by the artists who brought them to life—blending digital culture with physical collectables.Finally, Peter announces a limited-edition CardanoPress Wapuu pin giveaway for anyone with a live CardanoPress-powered site. Only 25 will be made, a nod to both the WordPress and Cardano communities.

Don and Tom salute high-schoolers who tackled the National Personal Finance Challenge, then test listeners (and each other) with the same nine-question quiz—covering basics like principal vs. balance, Roth RMD rules, CDs, vesting, inflation risk, callable bonds, and limit orders. Call-in segments dig into real-world money puzzles: whether to sink home-sale proceeds into a new mortgage at today's 7 % rates, how (and whether) to value a military pension, rolling a TSP, and a head-scratcher about wildly swinging “management” fees inside a Fidelity IRA. A quick detour touches on Don's upcoming birthday before they wrap with practical takeaways: know your income gap first, keep fees transparent, and remember—it's “losing money safely” if cash just languishes. 0:04 Why everyone needs a working knowledge of money 1:22 National Personal Finance Challenge shout-out & why only 0.1 % of high-schoolers compete 2:04 Quiz Q1 — defining principal 4:01 Quiz Q2 — Roth vs. traditional IRA RMD rules 5:10 Invitation for listeners to tackle the quiz live on air 7:38 Quiz Q4 — why CDs pay more (funds locked for a term) 8:57 Quiz Q5 — what “vesting” really means 9:59 Quiz Q7 — parking cash in a sock = inflation risk 12:33 Quiz Q8 — callable bonds explained 13:51 Caller Hillary — use equity to pay down a 7 % mortgage or invest instead? 16:33 Liquidity vs. rate trade-off and psychological comfort of a lower payment 18:43 Model-airplane museum banter & show phone line reminder 20:46 Caller Justin — valuing a pension and TSP rollover strategy 23:45 Start with income needs, then size savings; why keeping TSP is fine if it's your only IRA 28:13 Caller John — Fidelity “management fee” swings; how to pin your advisor down 33:25 Caller Will — cosmic birthday musings & the age of the universe 36:51 Quiz Q9 — limit orders, and Tom flunks Series 7 trivia 40:35 How few teens get real money education & resources to close the gap Learn more about your ad choices.

He joins me for his sixth time on Invest Like the Best with his most comprehensive market analysis yet, examining the realities reshaping venture capital. Bill tackles the uncomfortable math underlying today's venture returns, with companies staying private for far longer. He also walks through why no one—from GPs to LPs to founders—has proper incentives to mark assets accurately, creating a system-wide coordination problem. And, we dig into the investment implications of AI as a platform shift, ranging from evaluating AI revenue quality to international competitive dynamics. Bill offers crucial perspective on playing the game both as it exists today and as it may evolve. Please enjoy my conversation with Bill Gurley.

The Looming Crisis Few Want to Confront Paul Daneshrad, CEO of StarPoint Properties and author of Money and Morons, is sounding the alarm: the United States is barreling toward a sovereign debt reckoning – and real estate professionals are not nearly prepared.   Citing economists Reinhart and Rogoff, along with voices as diverse as Jamie Dimon, Jerome Powell, and Ray Dalio, Daneshrad warns that the U.S. has not only crossed the 100% debt-to-GDP threshold, widely viewed as a critical danger zone, but has kept accelerating. "We're at 120 to 140% on-balance-sheet," he notes. "If you include off-balance-sheet liabilities, we're at 300%." While the exact timing of the crisis is unknowable, Daneshrad argues that its inevitability is not. “It's not a question of if – it's when.”   Politics, Populism, and Normalcy Bias Daneshrad is quick to dismiss the conventional partisan narrative. The deficit is no longer a left-right issue, it's a bipartisan affliction. Both political parties, he argues, are fueling structural imbalances. Worse, the electorate, while voicing concern, refuses to vote for hard choices.   This disconnect is the heart of his book's provocative title: Money and Morons. “86% of Americans say they're worried about the debt,” he says. “But they won't vote for politicians willing to solve it, because that solution involves pain.”   The result is what psychologists call “normalcy bias” – an instinct to ignore looming threats and retreat into the comfort of the familiar.   Fixed-Rate Fortresses: Real Estate's First Line of Defense If the debt crisis triggers hyperinflation and a spike in interest rates, as Daneshrad expects, the implications for real estate will be seismic. His response? Radical preparation.   StarPoint has already begun shifting its portfolio into 20+ year fixed-rate debt and is moving toward 30-year structures. “It's painful. It's more expensive. But if the crisis comes in eight years, and you've got two years left on a 10-year loan, you're vulnerable.”   He emphasizes that this is not a fringe view. “Even Powell, whose mandate doesn't include the deficit, felt compelled to warn the public. That's how serious it is.”   Deleveraging with Purpose Debt levels at StarPoint are also coming down – fast. The firm is targeting 40% leverage, down from a peak of 70%. They currently sit at 54%, and the journey continues.   The rationale is clear: when interest rates jump from 6% to 15%, the re-pricing of real estate will be brutal. “That's trillions in lost value,” says Daneshrad. “You have to de-risk now.”   The Forgotten Asset: Cash Cash, often derided for its lack of yield in boom times, plays a central role in Daneshrad's playbook. “The Rockefellers, Kennedys, Guggenheims – they had cash when it mattered. They bought at two cents on the dollar.”   Berkshire Hathaway's record cash holdings reinforce this strategy. “Buffett sees limited opportunity right now and high risk. That should tell you something.”   Daneshrad recommends targeting cash reserves as a percentage of either AUM or annual free cash flow, steadily building them over time. "Public companies get punished for it. Private firms like ours have more flexibility and we're using it."   Why He's Not Buying (Yet) Despite market dislocation, Daneshrad says StarPoint is mostly sitting on the sidelines. Cap rate spreads don't justify the risk, and few deals offer the deep value he's targeting.   “We're looking for rebound plays where sellers are on their third buyer and need certainty of close. That's where the discounts are. But those opportunities are rare.”   Asked whether the mispricing stems from short-term underwriting or optimism bias, he shrugs. “We've flooded the system with liquidity. Asset prices are artificially propped up.”   Diversification and the Limits of Real Estate Daneshrad is not betting the farm on U.S. real estate. He's pursuing modest geographic diversification abroad and expanding into non-real estate asset classes. “Historically, real estate hedges inflation well but a debt crisis changes everything.”   He's candid about the difficulty: “We're not that smart. Timing a crisis is hard. But we can prepare for one.”   The Aging America Conundrum One of the more nuanced points Daneshrad raises is the intersection of demography and fiscal sustainability. Aging, he agrees, is inevitable. But the care infrastructure it requires is not financially supported. “The trustees for Social Security and Medicare, not politicians, say the funds go bankrupt in under ten years. That's $90 trillion in off-balance-sheet liabilities.” Senior housing? “A great idea if the elderly can pay. But with savings rates at historic lows, I'm not optimistic.”   Market Signals That Matter Daneshrad watches for three early signs of crisis: A gradual rise in interest rates – not driven by Fed hikes but by market demands for higher risk premiums. Breakdown of the flight-to-safety dynamic – if equities fall but bond yields rise, that's a red flag. The ‘bang moment' – as coined by Reinhart and Rogoff, when confidence evaporates overnight. As Hemingway once said about bankruptcy, it happens "gradually, then suddenly."   What He'd Do with $1 Million Today If handed an extra million in cash, Daneshrad says he'd hold 80% in cash and invest the rest. “Protect the capital. Diversify over multiple asset classes. Liquidity is opportunity.”   Final Word Paul Daneshrad's message is sobering but clear: “Protect. Prepare. Don't pretend.” He doesn't claim to predict the future. But if you accept the warnings from the smartest voices in finance and economics, the case for defensive posturing is overwhelming.   And if they're wrong? You lose a few basis points. But if they're right you survive the bang.   *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.

In this episode of The Data Minute, Peter is joined by Beezer Clarkson, Partner at Sapphire Ventures and co-host of the acclaimed Origins podcast, for a candid, rapid-fire look inside the minds of LPs, the realities of fundraising, and why venture isn't broken, but is being reshaped.They cover the biggest questions emerging managers are asking right now: How do you stand out in a market filled with sameness? Do mega-funds really distort early-stage deals? And how should GPs talk to LPs about secondaries, exits, and… failure? Beezer also dives into how newer GPs are using content, transparency, and AI tools to differentiate, and why Sapphire has taken a public voice when so many LPs have stayed quiet.If you've ever asked “What do LPs really care about?” or “How can I build enduring conviction with institutional investors?” — this episode has the answers.Subscribe to Carta's weekly Data Minute newsletter: https://carta.com/subscribe/data-newsletter-sign-up/Explore interactive startup and VC data, with Carta's Data Desk: https://carta.com/data-desk/Chapters:01:14 – Are mega-funds distorting early-stage VC?03:38 – Why nimble managers can win the best early deals05:04 – The myth of aiming for a “base hit” in venture06:57 – Will the best founders always land at the biggest funds?08:08 – Repeat founders vs first-timers in the AI age08:55 – Why Sapphire is still bullish on emerging managers09:28 – How LPs think about adding a new GP to their portfolio11:04 – Relationship inertia: it's not just about the numbers12:14 – The real reasons LPs don't shift allocations more13:36 – Why reporting is fundamentally harder in venture14:03 – Hidden strengths of today's emerging managers15:03 – Better reporting formats: from Notion pages to CEO videos16:24 – Reimagining the Annual General Meeting (AGM)18:18 – The risk of communicating only in failures19:53 – Self-regulating GPs: what long-term LPs really look for21:20 – Learning from anti-portfolio decisions23:49 – Qualitative qualities LPs remember: insight and differentiation25:33 – Generalist funds in an AI-driven market26:22 – How pattern recognition drives better decision-making28:15 – Scouting, accelerators, and thoughtful experimentation29:07 – Why it's gotten harder to stand out as a new manager30:17 – The liquidity crisis: is this the worst it's ever been?32:14 – Normalizing secondaries: opportunity or stigma?33:34 – Why secondaries are often still so uncomfortable36:52 – Founder secondaries and aligning incentives38:20 – Term sheet innovation and collaborative norm-setting39:39 – Is venture broken?
