This episode of What's On Your Mind focuses on the deep-seated political and judicial problems in Minnesota, the national exposure of large-scale fraud, and the impact of government regulation. Scott also gets a weather update and discusses the volatile grain markets and civic engagement in North Dakota. Standout Moments Minnesota's Mess Goes National (0:01:07) [cite_start]Scott expresses amazement and gratitude that the massive fraud and corruption story in Minnesota is finally receiving national scrutiny. [cite_start]The corruption, starting with the Somali community and misusing welfare systems, is also noted to be happening in Maine and Michigan.   Keith Ellison's Involvement in the Fraud (0:16:03) Former GOP AG candidate Ron Schutz (mistakenly introduced as Ryan) details how Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison met with the soon-to-be-indicted "Feeding Our Future" fraudsters in December 2021, weeks before the federal raid. [cite_start]Ellison allegedly offered to "help" them after they complained about getting a hard time with grants. [cite_start]Ellison's focus is criticized as being on suing the Trump administration instead of fighting fraud in Minnesota.   The Judicial System's Role in Minnesota's Problems (0:23:05) [cite_start]Lieutenant Governor candidate Ryan Wilson (running with Lisa Damath) discusses the "soft on crime" judicial philosophy in Minnesota, noting that judges appointed by Democrats (including the last seven years by Tim Walz) are the problem. [cite_start]Wilson points to a $7.2 million fraud case where a judge overturned a jury's guilty verdict and a case where a convicted rapist was sentenced to only probation.   Predicting Paid Family Leave Fraud (0:18:48) [cite_start]Both Scott and Ron Schutz predict the new Minnesota paid family medical leave program, effective January 1st and allowing up to 20 weeks of paid leave per year, will be "riddled with fraud", potentially involving healthcare providers providing false documentation.   CAFE Standards and Affordability (0:11:34) [cite_start]Scott discusses the government's Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards, noting that President Trump is rolling back regulations that led to higher vehicle prices. [cite_start]He cites the CEO of Ford Motor Company who called the old rules "totally out of touch with the market reality" and confirms the rollback is a victory for affordability that will "bring car prices down"   The Long List of Taxes That Didn't Exist 100 Years Ago (0:12:47) [cite_start]Scott reads a long, poetic list of different taxes and regulatory fees—from property and income tax to sales and liquor tax—and states that none of these taxes existed 100 years ago, when the US…

Silver is exploding in value at a pace that is now outpacing many major cryptocurrencies — and the financial world is scrambling to understand why. In this urgent and revealing discussion, Michael Jaco and Dr. Kirk Elliott break down the unprecedented market behavior that has never been seen before in modern financial history. Prices are surging, trading halts are occurring, and major institutions are quietly preparing for something big. Dr. Elliott explains the real reasons silver is pulling away from crypto: industrial demand is skyrocketing, national stockpiles are being depleted, and global governments are shifting away from the failing fiat system toward asset-backed structures. With banks under pressure, inflation climbing, supply chains tightening, and global tensions rising, silver is entering a historic trajectory that may reshape the entire economic landscape. Michael and Dr. Elliott also discuss why crypto's volatility and speculative nature leave it vulnerable during global shocks, while silver's physical scarcity and industrial necessity make it the safer and more strategic option for the times we're entering. They address the CME's unexpected trading freeze, the suppression of spot prices, the widening gap between physical and paper silver, and why this disconnect signals a major financial stress point. This conversation provides a clear roadmap for anyone wanting to understand the mechanics behind silver's explosive upward movement and — more importantly — how to transition from crypto into silver without missing the window of opportunity. With the world rapidly moving toward a new financial paradigm, this episode lays out the steps required to preserve and grow wealth before the next major shock hits the system. If you want clarity, timing, strategy, and a deeper understanding of what's unfolding behind the scenes, this is the episode you need to hear.

Understanding Market Volatility and Strategic Retirement Investing in 2025 Episode Summary: In this episode of The Financial Hour, Tom Dupree and Mike Johnson, local financial advisors from Dupree Financial Group in Kentucky, talk about current market conditions, Federal Reserve rate cut speculation, and why personalized investment management matters more than ever during periods of high volatility. With Tom’s 47 years of investment experience, he shares insights on protecting retirement portfolios while identifying genuine growth opportunities. Key Topics Covered: Retirement Portfolio Protection in Volatile Markets Market Volatility Analysis: What Kentucky Retirees Need to Know Since the end of October, markets have experienced unprecedented volatility. The NASDAQ saw one of its most dramatic single-day swings on November 20th, surging over 2% before closing down 2.2%. For retirees and pre-retirees managing retirement portfolios, understanding these “toppy market” signals is crucial for wealth preservation. Federal Reserve Rate Cuts: Separating Reality from Market Hype Market sentiment shifted dramatically within a single week when New York Fed President John Williams hinted at potential rate cuts. The probability jumped from 35% to over 80% for a December rate cut. But are these 25 basis point adjustments really moving the needle for everyday investors? Tom offers a refreshingly honest perspective that you won’t hear from your typical 1-800 number investment counselor: “This fed 25 basis point rate cut, it’s bs. So what? It’s not a big deal and they’re only using it to prop up the market and the minute they announce it, the market will sell off.” The Real Housing Market Challenge Unlike generic market commentary, this local financial advisory perspective addresses what’s actually keeping people from moving: it’s not just interest rates. Many homeowners are locked into 2-3% mortgages, and a quarter-point reduction won’t change their calculus. For Kentucky retirement planning, understanding these nuances matters when evaluating portfolio allocation. LNG Infrastructure: A Hidden Opportunity for Income-Focused Investors While everyone chases AI and tech speculation, we are identifying substantial opportunities in liquified natural gas (LNG) infrastructure. This represents the kind of strategic, research-based investing that comes from direct access to portfolio managers rather than cookie-cutter advice. Why LNG Matters for Retirement Portfolios: Predictable Cash Flows: Pipeline companies operate on “take or pay” contracts, providing consistent dividend income Massive Infrastructure Buildout: US LNG export capacity expanding from 19 billion cubic feet/day to 33 billion by 2032 Less Speculative Risk: Unlike AI data centers with uncertain equipment lifespans, natural gas infrastructure offers proven business models Growing Export Market: LNG exports up 21% year-over-year through August 2025 Essential Energy Transition: Natural gas remains critical for power generation, especially for data centers Mike Johnson explains the investment thesis: “You view the AI data center build out with something like LNG and the pipelines that are feeding that—it’s a more consistent, more predictable business model because it’s been around a long time. It’s more predictable. And so when you’re looking at it from an investment standpoint, especially from a retirement investment standpoint, these pipeline companies generally have more predictable, consistent cash flow and their dividends are more consistent.” Key Takeaways for Investors Approaching Retirement Recognize “Toppy Market” Signals: Large upward swings that can’t hold indicate potential market exhaustion Understand Market Broadening: Since late October, equal-weight S&P 500 outperforming tech-heavy indices suggests rotation Don’t Overreact to Fed Announcements: 25 basis point cuts have limited real economic impact Avoid Recency Bias: Just because markets have been rising doesn’t mean they’ll continue indefinitely Consider Real Infrastructure Plays: LNG pipeline expansion offers more predictable returns than tech speculation Protect Gains Strategically: After a strong year, raising some cash in overvalued positions makes sense Plan for Extended Productivity: The “Refire” movement—starting new careers in retirement—provides both income and purpose Understand Your Risk Exposure: Many investors don’t realize how much risk is embedded in their portfolios The Retirement Reality Check: Are You Really Ready? The “Refire” Alternative to Traditional Retirement Rather than completely stepping away from productive work, consider the “Refire” movement—transitioning from a draining career to something you’re passionate about. Dupree Financial Group clients have successfully transitioned into: Construction and farming ventures Specialty craft businesses (like the 87-year-old client working with wool) Consulting in their areas of expertise Gig economy opportunities that provide flexibility and income Why Personalized Investment Management Beats the 1-800 Number Approach This episode perfectly illustrates what sets Dupree Financial Group apart from mass-market investment firms. You’re not getting generic advice from an assigned counselor reading from a script. You’re getting: 47 years of investment experience navigating multiple market cycles Direct access to portfolio managers who actively manage your investments Local financial advisors in Kentucky who understand regional economic factors Honest, straight-talk guidance rather than market cheerleading Proactive portfolio adjustments based on current market conditions Education-first approach so you understand what you own and why Market Wisdom from 47 Years of Experience Tom shares a telling quote about investing psychology: “A man can never be faulted, even if he’s wrong, for the bold and aggressive action in pursuit of victory. A real man must be willing to strike out and go down swinging.” His response? “People are investing like that right now. It’s almost the gambler’s mindset where it’s the recency bias… It’s ignorance. And I don’t mean that in a bad way, it’s just lack of knowledge on what’s embedded in a portfolio.” This is the difference between speculation and strategic retirement investing—understanding what you own, why you own it, and what risks you’re actually taking. Important Reminders for Retirement Investors The Extended Bull Market Risk As Mike notes: “We’ve not had an extended bear market since the financial crisis.” An entire generation of investors has never experienced a prolonged downturn. This creates complacency and excessive risk-taking, particularly dangerous for those nearing or in retirement who don’t have time to recover from major losses. When Fully Valued Markets Present Challenges Mike explains the risk-reward calculation: “When you’re buying something that’s either fully priced or is looking historically at being fully priced, then you’re making a bet that things are gonna keep getting fuller priced.” Translation: You’re hoping a greater fool will pay even more than you did. That’s not investing—it’s speculation. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) Should I worry about current market volatility as I approach retirement? Yes, but worry productively. Large intraday swings, particularly when markets can’t hold gains, often signal “toppy” markets. This doesn’t mean selling everything, but it does mean reviewing your portfolio’s risk exposure and potentially raising some cash in overvalued positions. A team of local financial advisors with decades of experience can help you navigate these decisions based on your specific situation, not generic market timing. Will Federal Reserve rate cuts help my retirement portfolio? The impact of 25 basis point rate cuts is often overstated. While they may provide short-term market support, genuine portfolio growth requires earnings growth and sound business fundamentals. Personalized investment management focuses on these fundamentals rather than trying to trade Fed announcements. What makes LNG infrastructure a good retirement investment? LNG pipeline companies offer several advantages for retirement portfolios: predictable “take or pay” contract structures, consistent dividend income, less technology risk than AI speculation, and participation in a massive infrastructure buildout. With US LNG export capacity set to grow 74% by 2032, these investments offer growth potential with more stability than pure tech plays. How do I know if I have too much risk in my portfolio? Many investors don’t realize their risk exposure until it’s too late. Warning signs include: heavy concentration in a few tech stocks, inability to explain what you own and why, portfolios that look identical to major indices, or having the same allocation today as you did 10 years ago despite nearing retirement. A personalized portfolio analysis from experienced portfolio managers can identify hidden risks. What’s the difference between working with Dupree Financial Group versus a large national firm? Instead of calling a 1-800 number and speaking with an assigned investment counselor who may have limited experience, you get direct access to portfolio managers with 47 years of investment experience. You’re working with a team of local financial advisors who know Kentucky’s economic landscape and can meet with you face-to-face. This personalized investment management approach means your portfolio is actively managed based on current conditions, not set-and-forget. Should I retire if I’m tired of my current job? Not necessarily. Retiring purely because you dislike your job, without adequate financial cushion, can create bigger problems. Consider the “Refire” alternative—transitioning to something you’re passionate about that still generates income. Many Dupree Financial Group clients have successfully launched second careers in construction, farming, consulting, or specialty crafts. This provides both financial security and life purpose. What does “if you don’t know what you own, you should” really mean? It means understanding not just the names of stocks in your portfolio, but why you own them, what risks they carry, how they generate returns, and whether they still fit your current life stage. Many investors can name their holdings but can’t explain the investment thesis or risk profile. Kentucky retirement planning requires this deeper understanding, especially as you transition from accumulation to preservation and income. How often should I review my retirement portfolio? In normal markets, quarterly reviews make sense. In volatile markets like we’re experiencing, more frequent check-ins help. However, this doesn’t mean constantly trading—it means ensuring your risk exposure matches your current needs and market conditions. Dupree Financial Group provides ongoing portfolio management, not annual check-ins followed by silence. Schedule Your Personalized Portfolio Analysis If you’re approaching retirement or already retired, now is the time to ensure your portfolio matches your risk tolerance and income needs. Don’t wait for a market correction to discover you’re overexposed to risk. Dupree Financial Group offers complimentary portfolio reviews where we’ll analyze: Your current risk exposure and whether it matches your life stage Hidden concentrations and correlation risks Income sustainability from your portfolio Opportunities you may be missing (like LNG infrastructure) Whether your current advisor is providing genuine value or generic advice Call us at 859-233-0400 or schedule directly on our website.

Kevin Green expects volatility to remain elevated as the S&P 500 (SPX) breaks below its 50-day moving average. He believes the market is experiencing a "liquidation moment" driven by a combination of factors, including aggressive selling in equities and cryptocurrency. While Nvidia (NVDA) earnings could provide a catalyst, he notes that past reports haven't always led to significant upside. KG also analyzes Home Depot (HD) and Baidu (BIDU) earnings, highlighting consumer weakness and macroeconomic headwinds impacting both companies. He also looks at PDD Holdings (PDD), noting its competitive landscape and deceleration in growth despite some bright spots in sales.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Hire Yourself Podcast with Pete GilfillanThe corporate ladder is disappearing. In this episode, Pete Gilfillan breaks down the realities of today's corporate world, where automation, AI, and restructuring are flattening organizations and eliminating the traditional path to executive growth.If you've spent decades climbing toward leadership, this episode will make you rethink what “upward mobility” really means and why more executives are taking control through franchise ownership.In this episode, Pete discusses:1. The First Rung Is GoneAI and automation are eliminating entry-level positions—the very roles that once drove corporate advancement. As companies flatten, fewer opportunities remain to move up from within.2. Skills Now Matter More Than TitlesThe era of “paying your dues” is over. Advancement depends on performance and specialized skills, not tenure. Executives must now prove their worth in measurable ways or risk being replaced.3. Flattened Organizations, Fewer PromotionsAs technology streamlines operations, layers of management disappear. With fewer rungs on the ladder, career growth becomes limited—and often unpredictable.4. Job Hopping and the Rise of Boundaryless CareersExecutives aren't waiting for promotions that may never come. Many are building multiple income streams—franchises, consulting, real estate—to reclaim control of their future.5. Market Volatility and the End of Job StabilityRestructuring, mergers, and cost-cutting are the new normal. The ladder no longer represents security—it represents risk. The smartest executives are building their own ladders through business ownership.Key Takeaways:The traditional corporate ladder is collapsing from both ends.AI and automation are shrinking entry-level and mid-level opportunities.Career growth now depends on adaptability and self-direction.Owning a business gives you a new ladder—one you control.Franchising offers a structured, proven way to achieve that independence.“The corporate ladder isn't stable—it's disappearing. The smartest executives are building their own ladders.” — Pete GilfillanCONNECT WITH PETE GILFILLAN:

Stock market trends are in sharp focus as central banks pivot, earnings broaden beyond mega-cap leaders, and AI-driven CapEx reshapes corporate priorities. In this AMA edition of The Bid, host Oscar Pulido sits down with BlackRock's Gargi Pal Chaudhuri, Chief Investment and Portfolio Strategist for the Americas in the Investment Portfolios Solutions team. Together they field listener questions on rate cuts, market breadth, ETF flows, and how AI adoption could influence equity leadership over time.Gargi brings a cross-asset lens to what's driving global growth and volatility. Fresh off a busy earnings season and recent policy moves, she shares what she's hearing most from investors and how she thinks about portfolio positioning in the present market environment.Key moments in this episode:02:00 Parallels between running and investing - run your own race, what are your risk parameters04:32 Where policy's heading: The Fed's first rate cut marks a shift toward easing. December isn't guaranteed, but the big picture is that rates are starting to move toward more normal levels.07:52 Earnings season check-in: Big tech is still leading, but other companies are finally joining in with stronger results. That's helping the market feel a little more balanced.11:29 AI spending boom: Companies are pouring money into data centers and infrastructure to keep up with AI demand—funded by healthy cash flows and long-term plans.12: 25 Shoppers are split: Higher-income consumers are still spending on travel and tech, while others are trading down to save. GLP-1 medicines (like weight-loss drugs) are showing up as a big talking point for companies.13:40 Money on the move: Investors are starting to put cash to work again. ETF flows hit over $1 trillion this year, with interest across bonds, stocks, and even gold.16:37 Bonds and gold today: Many people are looking at bonds for income and keeping an eye on gold as markets shift.Check out this Spotify playlist for more content on alternative investing: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4Fe8VwKyG5FPYekFFSksbI

Griffin Warner and Lonte Smith talk CFB betting for Week 4. Early Reflections (0:32 – 4:26) Griffin celebrated the “first 2-0 of the season.” Lonte added, “Great weekend for us going 2-0… all the big games delivered.” Griffin recalled missing Tennessee-Georgia moments at an Arkansas watch party, while Lonte defended his Southern Miss pick, saying they “dominated this game” over App State. Market Volatility (4:27 – 6:40) Griffin called college line swings “chaos compared to the NFL or MLB.” Lonte noted CLV matters only “55% on three-plus moves.” Utah vs. Texas Tech (6:40 – 11:07) Utah's “60% rush success rate” and Morton's road issues (“80 grade at home, under 60 away”) led Lonte to lean Utah/under, projecting “23-20.” Griffin agreed: Utah -3. Michigan vs. Nebraska (11:43 – 14:33) Underwood's 114 yards, 2 TDs boost Michigan vs. Nebraska's weak run defense (“outside top 120 EPA”). Lonte leaned Huskers as home dogs; Griffin backed that angle. Auburn vs. Oklahoma (16:09 – 19:13) Auburn's defense “first in rush success rate allowed.” Lonte called for “23-20 or 20-17,” taking Auburn +6.5 and under. Griffin agreed, eyeing +7. Illinois vs. Indiana (20:21 – 25:02) Illinois' veteran team and Duke road win contrasted with Indiana QB Mendoza, who “struggles against blitz and man coverage.” Lonte liked Illinois +4.5/over. Best Bets (26:03 – 31:12) Lonte: UConn -21 (UConn “top 15 in success rate” vs. Ball State's defense “outside top 110”). Griffin: Utah -3 (trust in home edge, QB splits). Takeaway Defense, weak schedules, and market inefficiencies drove every angle. Player stats (Underwood's rushing, UConn's efficiency) and team metrics (Auburn's #1 defense) shaped sharp Week 4 picks.
