What separates a property that barely breaks even from one that dominates its market?

Policy uncertainty is rising—but markets seem unfazed. In this episode, we sit down with Libby Cantrill, Head of Public Policy at PIMCO, to explore the critical policy risks that investors may be underestimating or ignoring altogether.From the real-world implications of the tariffs to questions around Fed independence, fiscal stimulus, and housing market interventions, Libby provides an insider's perspective on what's happening in Washington—and why it matters more than the market suggests.She also discusses how policy risk differs from macroeconomic risk, how investors often price the wrong factors, and why the next shock may not come from where most expect.Topics covered include:Why policy risk remains underappreciated by marketsThe lasting impact of tariffs—and how they could evolveThe Big, Beautiful Tax Bill: What's real, what's hypeRisks to Fed independence and central bank credibilityGSE reform and the political tightrope in housingThe intersection of fiscal policy and market complacencyWhether you're focused on macro trends, portfolio positioning, or simply trying to understand what Washington might throw at markets next, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.

Send me a messageMost climate policies focus on cutting emissions. But what if the real issue is what's being left off the table, fossil fuel production itself?In this week's episode of Climate Confident, I speak with Tzeporah Berman, Chair of the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative, about why global climate goals are doomed if we keep expanding fossil fuel supply while trying to cut demand.Tzeporah explains how the Paris Agreement never once mentions the words “oil,” “gas,” or “coal”, despite 86% of emissions coming directly from them. She lays out the case for a global treaty to phase out fossil fuel production, how countries like Colombia are already stepping up, and why we need a just transition framework that includes debt relief and international cooperation.We discuss:Why fossil fuel expansion continues despite climate pledgesThe $7 trillion in annual subsidies distorting energy marketsThe role of Global South nations and equity in the energy transitionHow “net zero” has been weaponised as a delay tacticAnd why renewables alone won't solve the crisis unless we stop digging the hole deeperThis is a frank look at what it really takes to deliver on climate targets, and why we can't keep ignoring the supply side of the problem.

In this episode, we delve into the strategy behind the Murray International Trust, which has achieved 20 consecutive years of dividend growth. Co-manager Sam Fitzpatrick explains the fund's evolving geographic allocation, reduced UK exposure, and increasing opportunities in US and emerging markets. We discuss standout performers in technology, challenges in Latin America, and how currency movements impact returns. With a bottom-up, company-first approach, the portfolio balances higher-yielding defensive names with lower-yielding growth opportunities. Sam also touches on fixed income trends, geopolitical uncertainty, and how strategic flexibility is key to navigating today's volatile economic environment while preserving income growth.What's covered in this episode: The evolution of allocation to the UKBalancing growth with yieldThe trust's biggest contribution to the portfolioThe largest detractor from the portfolio …And why the managers are still backing itThe role of currency on the portfolioThe appeal of Latin America and emerging marketsThe surprisingly best long-term contributor to the portfolioDeveloped market vs emerging market companiesWhy the fixed income element is decreasingHow tariffs have impacted the portfolioMore about the fund: This is a genuinely international portfolio. Aberdeen is well known for its global equity research capabilities and the managers make full use of the resources available to them. Overall, their style has meant that returns have been very strong in some years and weaker in others, but the trust has delivered in the long run. As a result, Murray International may suit investors who have a long-term investment horizon and are looking for income and growth from global markets.Learn more on fundcalibre.comPlease remember, we've been discussing individual companies to bring investing to life for you.

In this episode, I sit down with my longtime friend Arthur Breitman, the co-founder of Tezos, one of the OG blockchains that has been innovating since 2018. We dive deep into the evolution of tokenization, why the first wave fell short, and how the next iteration can unlock real value. Arthur also shares insights on Tezos' latest upgrades, the growing demand for privacy in crypto, and an unexpected but fascinating use case—tokenizing uranium.We also explore:Why stablecoins became the most successful “real-world asset” in cryptoThe role of privacy in blockchain and the regulatory challenges aheadHow Tezos continues to innovate with faster block times and seamless upgradesThe surprising connection between commodities like uranium and crypto marketsThe reality of DeFi and whether planned maintenance on blockchains makes senseIf you're interested in the future of tokenized assets, crypto infrastructure, and why banks still feel like they're stuck in 1999, this is an episode you don't want to miss.Key Takeaways:✅ The first wave of tokenization failed due to misaligned expectations—crypto traders weren't looking for stable, bond-like investments.✅ Stablecoins became the ultimate “real-world asset” because they're not an investment but a convenience, especially in regions with weak local currencies.✅ Tezos continues to evolve with fast block times, liquid proof-of-stake, and a strong developer community.✅ Tokenizing commodities like uranium opens up new financial markets that were previously inaccessible to retail investors.✅ Privacy remains a core value in crypto, but regulatory pressure is making it harder to implement.Listen & Subscribe:

In this episode, Larry Swedroe shares nine critical lessons that the markets taught investors in 2024. Drawing from decades of experience, Larry explains why market forecasts consistently fail, why valuations can't be used for market timing, and how seemingly obvious economic events often lead to surprising market outcomes.Larry dives deep into the concept of "self-healing mechanisms" in markets, explaining how periods of poor performance often set the stage for strong future returns. He uses fascinating examples from reinsurance to value stocks to illustrate this principle. The discussion also covers why "Sell in May and Go Away" is a dangerous myth, why active management continues to disappoint, and why proper diversification means always having some parts of your portfolio that aren't performing well.Larry also explains why investors keep making the same mistakes and how they can break free from common behavioral biases. The conversation includes practical insights on:Why even a perfect economic crystal ball wouldn't help you predict marketsThe dangers of judging investment strategies by their outcomes rather than their processWhy patience and discipline are crucial for investment successHow to think about diversification in a world dominated by large tech stocksWhether you're a seasoned investor or just starting out, this episode offers valuable perspectives on building resilient portfolios and avoiding common investment pitfalls.SEE LATEST EPISODES⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://excessreturnspod.comFIND OUT MORE ABOUT VALIDEA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.validea.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FIND OUT MORE ABOUT VALIDEA CAPITAL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.valideacapital.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FOLLOW JACKTwitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/practicalquant⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/jack-forehand-8015094⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FOLLOW JUSTINTwitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/jjcarbonneau⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/jcarbonneau⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
