Senior housing is posting record absorption while new supply sits at Great Financial Crisis lows. Michael Bull, CCIM talks with Arick Morton, Chief Executive Officer of NIC MAP, about what that gap means for owners, investors, and developers. Arick walks through the numbers behind the demand story: median occupancy back near 93%, more than 30 of the top 100 metros running a 95% median, transaction volume touching all-time highs, and price per unit up meaningfully. Cap rates have compressed into the 6 handles for stabilized Class A and B product in good markets, with 5 handles trading in some cases. The supply side is the harder half. Labor costs climbed 30% to 35% between 2021 and early 2023, and because buildings sat around 80% full, almost none of it was passed through to rents. Occupancy has healed, margins have not fully caught up, and the unlevered yield on cost math still comes up short in many markets. Arick lays out what has to change before a sustained construction cycle starts. Then the opportunity set. The 80 plus population grows roughly 35% by 2030 and 65% to 70% by 2035, which means the industry needs to deliver about twice as many units as it has ever built, every year, for the next 20 years. Arick makes the case that expanding existing communities is the fastest pressure relief valve available, since roughly two thirds of the stock is 20 to 25 years old and much of it sits on land bought before land got expensive. He also covers third party management, regional density in portfolio construction, and where AI actually helps an operator.

What if the greatest threat to your property investment success isn't choosing the wrong suburb, paying too much or getting your timing wrong?   What if it's your inability to remain disciplined when the headlines become frightening, the forecasts turn gloomy and everyone around you starts questioning whether property is still a good investment?   Over the last six years, Australian property investors have lived through a pandemic, lockdowns, recession warnings, emergency-low interest rates, a property boom, rapid inflation, a punishing interest rate cycle, construction failures, wars, tax changes and repeated predictions of a housing market crash.   Yet property values rose substantially over that period, although some markets and some types of property performed considerably better than others.   So, how did some investors build significant wealth while others remained frozen on the sidelines, sold quality properties at the wrong time or chased yesterday's hotspots?   That is what I'm going to explain in today's show.   I explain why property investing is really a blend of hard data and smart judgement. I break down how research, finance, demographics, and supply and demand give us the science behind good decisions.   I also share why context, patience, and emotional discipline matter just as much as the numbers.   I look at how headlines, uncertainty, and market noise can push investors into poor decisions if they lose perspective.   I finish by showing why a long-term strategy matters more than chasing certainty or the latest hotspot.   Takeaways    • Fear and headlines often damage investing results more than poor suburb selection. • Property investing combines research, finance, and demographics with judgment and patience. • Market noise has included pandemics, inflation, rate rises, and repeated crash predictions. • Median price growth can hide major differences between cities, suburbs, and property types. • Data can mislead when it lags the market or reflects an unusual sales mix. • Successful investors study scarcity, demand, income growth, and owner-occupier appeal. • Interpretation matters because raw numbers rarely tell the full property story. • Over-analysis can become procrastination disguised as careful decision-making. • A strong strategy includes buffers, leverage control, and sensible ownership structure. • Wealth comes from holding the right assets through multiple market cycles.   Chapters   • 00:00 - Fear can derail property decisions • 01:38 - Science and art in property investing • 05:01 - Reading context beyond the numbers • 09:20 - Why long-term growth still matters • 17:40 - Strategy beats reaction every time   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here - https://www.propertytrivia.com.au/ ·        Win a hard copy of How To Grow A Multi-Million Dollar Property Portfolio In Your Spare Time? ·        Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2026 and beyond.   Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here     Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property plan.

Dvorak on X Follow Andrew Horowitz on X Warm-Up - Things are getting weird - looks like someone is panicking - The Dumber side of finance - let's dig in (5 top items) - Cold War and Hot War - Canada, China and Iran - Economic "D" day - no one cares - Saying goodbye to Dolly Parton Markets - Gold, Bitcoin moving on a lower USD - Oil starting to settle - Big Week - NVDA earnings on tap - all eyes! STUPID IS WHAT STUPID DOES - A DHU One-Time Series On The Dumber Side of Finance 1) LOWER BEEF PRICES - Trump plans temporary tariff relief for certain ground-beef imports as U.S. beef prices remain near record highs. - The plan would allow up to 300,000 metric tons of discounted imported ground beef over roughly 90 days. - Supposedly this will reduce the prices for consumers - Ranchers and several farm-state Republicans are pushing back, arguing cheaper imports could hurt domestic producers. ---- Question: Tariff reduction is going to reduce prices for consumers? Didn't someone say that tariffs are paid by the companies and exporting countries??? 2) IRAN SANCTIONS - BIG THREAT, LIMITED IMMEDIATE ACTION - Treasury warned countries doing business with Iran that they could face secondary sanctions, calling it an "economic D-Day." - New sanctions hit about 60 individuals, companies and vessels, but major Chinese financial institutions were not targeted. - China remains the biggest buyer of Iranian oil, making Chinese banks the potential pressure point. - Treasury says sanctions could expand into gold, digital assets, aviation, shipping and other sectors. 3) TREASURY TRIES TO TAME LONG-TERM YIELDS - Treasury will at least double the maximum size of certain long-term bond buybacks to $4 billion per operation. - The announcement briefly knocked nearly 10 basis points off the 30-year Treasury yield. - Critics say this treats the symptom rather than the cause - huge deficits, heavy issuance and persistent inflation risk. ------Bessent had to come out on Friday to say "at least" $4B - as bind yields moved back up -------Maybe there is a concern over the $40TRILLION debt we have amassed as a country? 4) SOMEONE GOT LONG BONDS AT THE RIGHT TIME - TLT took in roughly $529 million of net inflows on August 18, one day before Treasury's surprise bond-buyback announcement. - The next day Bessent doubled planned buybacks of 10- to 30-year Treasurys, immediately pushing long yields lower. - TLT jumped about 1.7% on the announcement. - No public evidence identifies a single buyer - but the timing of the unusually large inflow is certainly worth noting. 5) DOLLAR GETS HIT BY THE BOND RESCUE - The dollar weakened as investors questioned Treasury's expanded bond-buyback strategy. - The concern is that suppressing yields without fixing fiscal problems simply transfers pressure from bonds to the currency. - The 30-year yield has remained elevated despite Treasury intervention. - Bitcoin rallied as investors looked toward alternatives to traditional fiat assets. - PEOPLE: This is NOT Quantitative Easing - Just a move to buy longer dated and issue more short dated WALMART FLASHES A CONSUMER WARNING - Walmart U.S. comparable sales grew just 2.6%, its slowest pace in roughly six years and below expectations. - Shares dropped sharply after the report. - E-commerce remained strong, while store traffic and discretionary spending showed more weakness. - Walmart raised full-year guidance but gave a softer-than-expected third-quarter outlook. - As America's biggest retailer, Walmart's slowdown is an important read on the broader consumer. VENEZUELA HAS OIL - BUT CAN'T SHIP IT FAST ENOUGH - Tankers are waiting as long as 30 days to load Venezuelan crude because of aging ports, outages and equipment failures. - Venezuela has struggled to push exports much higher despite rising production and strong demand. - The Jose terminal handles about 70% of exports and has become a major bottleneck. - Venezuela's ports may impose a physical ceiling on production growth until infrastructure is upgraded. JANE STREET'S $15 BILLION AI HIT - Jane Street reportedly lost about $15 billion in July as AI and technology positions moved sharply against the firm. - A major source of the damage was exposure to concentrated AI trades that were forced to unwind. - Jane Street posted its first negative month of trading revenue since 2016. - As a reminder: this episode highlights how quickly crowded AI trades can overwhelm even sophisticated risk-management systems. LEAVITT LEAVES THE WHITE HOUSE - Karoline Leavitt resigned as White House press secretary after returning from maternity leave. - Trump said she would become a top outside adviser and prominent Republican voice heading into the midterms. - Looking fior a kinder and gentler replacement? HA! probably not OFF THE HIGHS NVDA - 9% off high AMD - 19% off high AVGO - 23% off high MU - 23% off high TSM - 13% off high MRVL - 28% off high INTC - 35% off high NVIDIA - THE MARKET'S NEXT STRESS TEST - Nvidia reports Wednesday - now basically a referendum on the entire AI trade. - Blackwell demand and hyperscaler spending are the key tells. - A strong guide could quickly reset tech sentiment. - A miss would raise the uncomfortable question: how much AI optimism is already priced in? - Revenue expected around $92.1 billion, up roughly 97% year over year. - Adjusted EPS expected around $2.09, nearly double last year. - Data Center revenue expected around $85.7 billion - still the main engine. - Biggest watch items: Blackwell demand, Vera Rubin timing, China sales and hyperscaler capex. - Options imply roughly a 5%-6% move after earnings. - Discussion .... NVIDIA - AI SERVERS GETTING EVEN MORE EXPENSIVE - Major Nvidia customers have reportedly been warned that AI server prices could rise more than 15% beginning early next year. - Higher memory costs are the main driver, affecting Grace Blackwell and upcoming Vera Rubin systems. - Nvidia is effectively passing higher component costs through despite gross margins around 75%. - ALWAYS INTERESTING THESE ANNOUNCEMENTS SO CLOSE TO EARNINGS - HMMMM CANADA-U.S. TRADE FIGHT GETS WORSE - Canada announced retaliatory tariffs on about $20 billion of U.S. goods after Washington imposed new 50% tariffs on Canadian imports. - Canada's tariffs range from 15% to 50% across roughly 700 products and begin September 8. - Canada also announced a C$7.5 billion support package for affected businesses and workers. - Another escalation that could hit autos, manufacturing costs and cross-border supply chains. HOUSING - BUYERS KEEP DISAPPEARING - July new-home sales plunged 10.5% to a 607,000 annual rate, the weakest since January. - Median new-home price fell to $393,800, the lowest in four years. - Mortgage rates are still around 6.8%, keeping affordability under pressure. - Only 5.2% of consumers said they expect to buy a home in the next six months - the sharpest drop in more than five years. JACKSON HOLE - WARSH GETS THE MICROPHONE - Kevin Warsh speaks next week at Jackson Hole. - Markets want to know whether sticky inflation, oil and tariffs are enough to keep the Fed in tightening mode. - Long yields are already doing some of the Fed's work. - One sentence could move bonds, the dollar and stocks. - Friday, August 28 at 10:00 a.m. ET. --- BUT - Didn't Warsh say less communication is more? They can't keep put of the spotlight. PCE - THE FED'S FAVORITE INFLATION READ - "The Fed's preferred gauge/measure of inflation" - July PCE lands next week. - Watch for tariff, energy and goods inflation creeping back into the numbers. - A hot print revives hike fears. - A soft print gives risk assets some breathing room - especially with long yields already elevated. THE CONSUMER VS. THE AI BOOM - MORE EARNINGS COMING - Salesforce, CrowdStrike and Marvell give another read on corporate AI spending. - Dollar General, Dollar Tree, Best Buy and Ulta test the other side of the economy. - The setup is getting interesting: companies are still spending aggressively on AI while consumers look increasingly selective. - If that gap widens, it could become one of the bigger market themes into the fall. AROUND THE WORLD EUROPE - QUIETLY GETTING INTERESTING - European stocks slipped this week, but money has started flowing back into the region. - Euro-zone business activity is growing at its fastest pace this year, while Q2 earnings growth for STOXX 600 companies is running surprisingly strong. - CONCEPT: Europe may be turning into the anti-U.S. trade - less AI concentration, cheaper valuations, but more sensitivity to energy. JAPAN - BETTER DATA, WORSE MARKET - Japan's Nikkei lost about 4% this week even as the economic data improved. - August manufacturing PMI jumped to 55.1, with new orders rising at the fastest pace since 2018. - Semiconductors and AI-related demand are helping drive the factory rebound. - Stronger growth also keeps the BOJ rate-hike discussion alive - good economy, potentially tougher market. BIG PHARMA - CHINA'S WEIGHT-LOSS GOLD RUSH - Lilly, Novo Nordisk and others are aggressively targeting China's obesity market, where obesity rates are projected to top 65% by 2030. - China bans direct prescription-drug advertising, so companies are using subway ads, gyms, influencers and "disease awareness" campaigns instead. - China's GLP-1 market could reach roughly 30 billion yuan over the next 5-7 years. - Interesting regulatory gray area: education campaigns that look a lot like drug advertising without actually naming the drug.

We're talking about Mayor Frey's proposed property tax levy for 2027 with Commissioner Jason Garcia, of the Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board, and Eric Harris Bernstein, of the Board of Estimate & Taxation. The Park Board is feeling shortchanged by the mayor's suggested 2.5% increase in their levy, at the same time he has proposed a 14.4% increase for the city's portion of the levy. We discuss the mayor's ideas to create savings by consolidating some of the Park Board's internal functions, like human resources, payroll, and IT, into the city - and why the Park Board is skeptical. What would the mayor's proposed cuts mean for the Park Board? Is it likely to pass? Why is the disparity between the city and park board so wide - are the police and fire departments eating all our money? Is this budget battle the best recent example of how an independent, elected Park Board is important to the success of Minneapolis parks? Plus we get a healthy dose of "tax positivity" from Eric.Watch: https://youtube.com/wedgeliveJoin the conversation: https://bsky.app/profile/wedge.liveSupport the show: https://patreon.com/wedgeliveWedge LIVE theme song by Anthony Kasper x LaFontsee

Melodic riddim sunday morning session. Felt too bright until I filtered the theme. Median moods. Easy to mix.. From the album "Be there to soothe you".

Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch.This week, they discuss a socialist state lawmaker shocking the Democrats by winning the Florida U.S. Senate primary, a company admitting it completely fabricated recent polling results, the U.S. national debt reaching $40 trillion, and a majority of Dems, independents, and Republicans favoring price controls.First, they discuss the stunning victory of socialist Angie Nixon in the Florida Democratic U.S. Senate primary over the heavily-favored establishment pick, Alexander Vindman. Jim and Greg also discuss how this result may impact the governor's race, and they round up a number of encouraging results in GOP congressional primaries.Next, they dig into "Median Strategies" announcing it is done polling, fabricated all of their results, and the whole operation was a social experiment to see how much fake polling could get reported without anyone bothering to verify the results were legitimate.Then, they wince as the U.S. national debt surges past $40 trillion. They fume at both parties for refusing to deal with this problem long before it got this bad. They also blast Democrats and some Republicans who blocked the effort more than 20 years ago to allow Americans to invest some of the money they pay in Social Security taxes. The payoff now would have been huge.Finally, they groan as a new poll shows a majority of Democrats, independents, and even Republicans all favor price controls. Charlie argues that many politicians are flat out lying about our current economic conditions and are convincing too many people of the wrong remedy.Please visit our great sponsors:Brooklyn Beddinghttps://BrooklynBedding.comGet 30% off sitewide Brooklyn Bedding with promo code 3ML. BetterHelphttps://betterhelp.com/3ML See the reviews, see what stands out, and see if BetterHelp is right for you. Noble Goldhttps://NobleGoldInvestments.com/3MLIf you want to see how physical gold and silver could fit into your portfolio, download Noble Gold Investments FREE Wealth Protection Kit.New episodes every weekday.

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to a socialist state lawmaker shocking the Democrats by winning the Florida U.S. Senate primary, South Carolina Sen. Darline Graham admitting she is not well-versed at all on national security, a company admitted it completely fabricated recent polling results, and two Dan Sullivans appearing likely to make the November ballot for U.S. Senate in Alaska.First, they discuss the stunning victory of socialist Angie Nixon in the Florida Democratic U.S. Senate primary over the heavily-favored establishment pick, Alexander Vindman. Jim and Greg also discuss how this result may impact the governor's race, and they round up a number of encouraging results in GOP congressional primaries.Next, they head to the South Carolina GOP U.S. Senate debate as Sen. Darline Graham whiffs on a question about Taiwan and admits, "National security is not my thing." Jim explains why this answer ought to be considered disqualifying, especially considering the challenges we face from China.Then, they dig into "Median Strategies" announcing it is done polling, fabricated all of their results, and the whole operation was a social experiment to see how much fake polling could get reported without anyone bothering to verify the results were legitimate.Finally, they groan over Alaska's ridiculous system, where four candidates advance from Tuesday's primary to the general election. This year the four U.S. Senate candidates will include two named Dan Sullivan, one of whom is accused of running just to sow confusion for the current Sen. Sullivan. The eventual winner will be decided through the execrable ranked choice voting system. Please visit our great sponsors:Brooklyn Beddinghttps://BrooklynBedding.comGet 30% off sitewide Brooklyn Bedding with promo code 3ML. BetterHelphttps://betterhelp.com/3ML See the reviews, see what stands out, and see if BetterHelp is right for you. Noble Goldhttps://NobleGoldInvestments.com/3MLIf you want to see how physical gold and silver could fit into your portfolio, download Noble Gold Investments FREE Wealth Protection Kit.New episodes every weekday.

This episode is sponsored by Gilead Sciences. Gilead had no involvement or input in the podcast content. Gilead is working to transform how cancer is treated. We are innovating with next-generation therapies, combinations, and technologies to deliver improved outcomes for people with cancer. From antibody drug conjugates and small molecules to cell therapy-based approaches, our portfolio and pipeline assets are creating new possibilities for people with cancer.Dr. Sara Tolaney, Chief of the Division of Breast Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, returns to Patient From Hell to explain the ASCENT-04/KEYNOTE-D19 study, the phase 3 trial she led as principal investigator, and what it changes for people living with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.For years, the most effective drugs for metastatic TNBC were only available after first-line chemotherapy had already failed. The problem, as Dr. Tolaney puts it plainly, is that many patients never reach a second line of treatment at all. ASCENT-04 asked whether moving an antibody-drug conjugate to the front, paired with immunotherapy, would change that. Median progression-free survival improved from 7.8 months to 11.2 months, and treatment responses lasted significantly longer.UPDATE: Since this recorded conversation, the FDA has acted on the data discussed in this episode. On May 22, 2026, Datopotamab Deruxtecan was approved for first-line metastatic TNBC in patients who are not candidates for immunotherapy.

Send us Fan Mail[Verse 1]It started with an email from a Kiwi like me,Already burned once, looking for some certainty.BG Wealth was behind him, money already gone,Then Northcrest and NexusX came quietly along.Five hundred dollars just to step through the door,AI and Wall Street promising more.A dashboard showed a profit, everything looked fine,Then BonChat became the reason they shut him down online.[Pre-Chorus]Bring in three, build a team,Compound the money, sell the dream.Daily profits, automated trades,I wanted proof behind the claims they made.[Chorus]Follow the money, follow the chain,The blockchain remembers what the websites claim.Northcrest Capital — NexusX,Show us the trading, show us the evidence.“Not pooled, not shared, yours” — that's what you said,But follow that five hundred and look where it led.You can change the branding, you can change the name,But you can't rewrite a transaction on the chain.[Verse 2]One thousand becoming twenty-nine twenty-six,Ninety days compounding — that's the pitch.One-point-two percent a day displayed on the screen,“SEC regulated” wrapped around the machine.Three direct referrals, then watch the network grow,Rank rewards get bigger with the people down below.Five thousand members, Mercedes at the top,Twenty thousand people before the levels stop.Ethan Carter, Wall Street history on display,Goldman, Morgan Stanley — impressive names to say.But credentials and agreements hanging on the wallStill need independent evidence behind them all.[Chorus]Follow the money, follow the chain,The blockchain remembers what the websites claim.Northcrest Capital — NexusX,Show us the trading, show us the evidence.“Not pooled, not shared, yours” — that's what you said,But follow that five hundred and look where it led.You can change the branding, you can change the name,But you can't rewrite a transaction on the chain.[Verse 3 — CrYptOG Follows The Money]Then CrYptOG stepped in and followed the trail,No glossy presentation, no corporate sales email.Five hundred USDT arrived upon the chain,Eight hours, twenty-four minutes — then it moved again.Swept into collection, four minutes later gone,Inside thirteen thousand dollars moving further on.A hundred-plus addresses feeding through the flow,Eight hundred fifty thousand dollars moving through below.Then the central wallet showed a bigger trail:Nearly one-point-five million moving through the rails.So tell me how that squares with what investors were told:“Not pooled.Not shared.Yours.”[Verse 4]One route paid a thousand transfers, many relatively small,Three hundred ninety wallets receiving them in all.The most common payment? Fifty dollars on the line,Five hundred seventy-three separate times.CrYptOG checked the intervals appearing in the flow,Median ten days between repeat payments going out below.Nine hundred twelve payments matched advertised amounts,Ninety-point-two percent when the investigator counts.Another route moved bigger money through a narrower door,Six hundred eighteen thousand — and we wanted to know more.Sixteen transfers moving out to just eleven addresses,While four destinations took the overwhelming percentage.The blockchain doesn't name the people or tell us what they knew,But it records every transaction passing through.[Bridge — Spoken]Then there's:“ZERO CRYPTO. EVER.”Except the investor was given cryptocurrency addresses.TRON.Ethereum.Bitcoin.And the five hundred dollars we followed?USDT on TRON.So explain it.[Build]SEC regulated?Show the authorisation.Bank-level custody?Name the custodian.Professional stock trading?Show the trades.Personal accounts?Explain the money flow.Daily returns?Show where the profit comes from.Thousands of recruits?Explain why you need them.[Final Chorus]FOLLOW THE MONEY, FOLLOW THE CHAIN,THE BLOCKCHAIN REMEMBERS WHAT THE WEBSITES CLAIM.Northcrest Capital — NexusX,No presentation can erase the evidence.“Not pooled, not shared, yours” — that's what you said,CrYptOG followed five hundred and showed us where it led.You can change the branding, you can change the name,But you can't rewrite a transaction on the chain.BG Wealth Sharing taught me something I already know:Don't follow the promises.Follow the money.[Outro — Spoken]Northcrest Capital.NexusX.The right of reply remains open.If we're wrong — show us.Show the trades.Show the custody.Show the regulation.And explain the blockchain.Support the show

Letošní vedra v Evropě už připravila o život podle agentury Bloomberg na 25 tisíc lidí. Podle průzkumu agentury Median pro Český rozhlas se 67 procent lidí v republice obává negativních dopadů extrémních teplot na jejich život. „Chybí tu operativní příprava na vlny veder,“ myslí si expertka na klimatickou adaptaci měst z Institutu Europeum Katarína Svitková. „Malé obce finančně nedosáhnou na velká opatření,“ upozorňuje výkonná ředitelka Svazu měst a obcí Radka Vladyková.

Prompten ist kinderleicht – nur gewusst wie. In dieser Folge zeigt Matthias Lehrke (Wirtschaftsingenieur, Berater der Lebensmittelwirtschaft und Obmann des DGQ-Arbeitskreises HACCP und Hygiene), wie sich KI im Qualitätsmanagement (QM) und in der Qualitätssicherung (QS) sinnvoll einsetzen lässt. Sein zentraler Punkt: Der Prompt ist wichtiger als das verwendete KI-Modell. Anhand konkreter Beispiel-Prompts – von der formalen Dokumentenprüfung über Gefahrenanalysen bis zur Plausibilitätsprüfung von Korrekturmaßnahmen – wird gezeigt, wo KI im Arbeitsalltag echte Zeitersparnis bringt und wo ihre Grenzen liegen. Die Folge ist ein Auszug eines Webinars der BEHR'S Akademie und richtet sich an Fachleute aus QM, QS und Lebensmittelsicherheit, die KI praxisnah und datenschutzkonform nutzen möchten. Die wichtigsten Themen dieser Folge: Prompt vor Modell: Warum die Qualität des Prompts entscheidender ist als die Wahl der KI – und wie man die KI den eigenen Prompt sogar selbst verbessern lässt. Master-Prompts & Reproduzierbarkeit: Wie strukturierte Master-Prompts mit rund 15 festen Themengebieten (Rolle, Aufgabe, Quelle, Negativvorgaben u. a.) für vergleichbare, reproduzierbare Ergebnisse sorgen. Datenschutz & Grenzen der KI: Sensible Daten gehören nur in abgeschottete, datenschutzkonforme KI-Umgebungen – und trotz 80–90 % Genauigkeit braucht es immer die fachliche Kontrolle durch den Menschen. Formale Dokumentenprüfung: Verständlichkeit, Sprachniveau und Lesbarkeit von Arbeitsanweisungen automatisiert bewerten und so den blinden Fleck bei der Dokumentenerstellung beseitigen. Gefahrenanalysen & HACCP: Wie KI Gefahren je Prozessschritt auflistet, Ursachen und Auswirkungen unterscheidet und einen belastbaren Grundstock für die Gefahrenanalyse liefert. Audits & Korrekturmaßnahmen: KI zur Vorbereitung von Auditlisten inklusive typischer Schwachstellen sowie zur Plausibilitätsprüfung von Korrekturen und Korrekturmaßnahmen (z. B. im Rahmen von IFS Food 8). Timestamps für Schnellhörer: 04:10 – Datenschutz und die roten Linien: Welche Daten niemals in die KI gehören. 07:11 – Master-Prompts: Reproduzierbarkeit durch strukturierte Prompt-Vorlagen. 11:15 – Codes als Kürzel: Wie kurze Befehle lange Prompts ersetzen. 14:35 – Formale Dokumentenprüfung: Verständlichkeit und Sprachniveau bewerten. 25:22 – Ursachenanalysen mit KI: Kreative Ursachensuche statt halber Analysen. 26:51 – Daten analysieren: Mittelwert, Median und Prozessfähigkeit ohne teures Statistiktool. 28:21 – Audits vorbereiten: Auditlisten mit typischen Schwachstellen erstellen. 29:51 – Korrekturmaßnahmen prüfen: Plausibilitätscheck im Rahmen eines IFS Food 8 Audits.

A mother lost her son on I-74 to a crash that never had to happen. The technology to prevent it already existed. The trucking company just didn't install it.In this episode of After the Crash, David Craig talks with Celeste Bowens-Martin, a professional bus driver with a CDL and someone he has represented over the years. In March of 2025, Celeste's oldest son, Isaiah, 35, was killed on I-74 while driving home to Indianapolis from Illinois. His car had crossed the median and come to a complete stop in the opposite lane of travel. A 2024 Freightliner struck him. That truck could have been equipped with crash avoidance technology, sensors, cameras, and active braking that detect a stationary object and stop the truck when a driver doesn't react. It wasn't. Celeste, who has relied on that same safety technology to avoid crashes in her own bus, joins David to explain why she is now committed to advocating for change.✔️ How collision avoidance and automatic emergency braking systems actually detect stationary vehicles✔️ Why a 2024 Freightliner may still leave the lot without crash avoidance technology installed✔️ The real cost of adding these systems: a few hundred to a few thousand dollars per truck✔️ How safety sensors can be unplugged or left off, and why inspections matter✔️ A professional CDL driver's firsthand account of technology saving her from crashes✔️ Why families deserve answers when a preventable crash takes someone they loveDavid Craig is one of the few attorneys in the U.S. who is Board-Certified in Truck Accident Law by the National Board of Trial Advocacy and accredited by the American Bar Association. That means he meets rigorous experience, ethics, and knowledge standards to hold trucking companies and unsafe drivers accountable. With 39+ years handling semi-truck wreck cases, David has seen how corporate decisions to cut costs on safety equipment can change families forever.This episode carries the weight of a grieving mother's loss. Celeste shares who Isaiah was, a gamer, a collector, her travel buddy, her day one, and how she is turning that grief into a mission so that no other family has to sit where she sits now.

It's Wednesday, July 15th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Pakistani Christians targeted in absurd blasphemy cases Most blasphemy cases in Pakistan in recent years were fabricated. Officials admitted this to a parliamentary committee last week. Christians were among the people targeted in the hundreds of fabricated cases.  The country's blasphemy law criminalizes insulting Islam. People often use the law to target religious minorities like Christians. Just last week, a Pakistani court acquitted a Christian man in this kind of case. Thirty-seven-year-old Dennis Albert had spent two years in prison over false accusations.  In Matthew 5:11-12, Jesus said, “Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in Heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.” British island legalizing assisted suicide The British Channel Island of Jersey is legalizing assisted suicide.  The self-governing island is under the British Crown. Jersey received Royal Assent for its so-called “Assisted Dying Law” last week. Once the law takes effect, the territory will be the first place in the British Isles to legalize such killing. Other jurisdictions in the British Isles are also trying to legalize assisted suicide. These include the Isle of Man as well as England and Wales.  Arkansas: Best state for religious liberty; New York is the worst First Liberty released its 2026 Religious Liberty in the States report. The index ranks states in America based on how well they protect religious freedom.  Only Arkansas and Tennessee received excellent scores on the index. New York and Vermont scored the worst. The majority of states scored below 50 percent on the index.  Arkansas' Republican Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders spoke at a press conference after her state won the highest score on the index. Listen. SANDERS: “Jesus commands us to live out our faith boldly. The Constitution protects our rights to do so. In this administration, we don't just believe that Jesus is our living hope. We will always stand up for the rights of Arkansans who believe the same. “I want to thank First Liberty for recognizing Arkansas's work and for honoring us with this ranking. It's something we are very proud of and we will continue to make sure we stay number one.” Michigan pro-life groups will not be compelled to hire pro-aborts A federal judge ruled in favor of pro-life groups in Michigan last week.  A state law would require pro-life organizations to hire pro-abortion employees. Right to Life of Michigan and Pregnancy Resource Center challenged this law in court. The recent ruling blocks Michigan from enforcing the law.  Amber Roseboom, president of Right to Life of Michigan, said, “The court's decision is a welcome reprieve and reaffirms our fundamental right to hire employees who agree with our life-affirming mission.” New law will make housing more affordable The 21st Century Road to Housing Act became law in the United States. last Saturday.  The bipartisan bill is an attempt to make housing more affordable for Americans. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt described the law on X. She said, “This bipartisan bill includes policies long championed by the President. It cuts unnecessary red tape, helps increase housing supply, and limits the ability of large institutional investors to purchase single-family homes.” Median home price: $440,600 In related news, home prices continued to rise last month. A report from the National Association of Realtors found that the median sales price of an existing home reached $440,600 in June. That's the highest on record.  Lawrence Yun with the National Association of Realtors noted, “Affordability is better than a year ago because wage growth is outpacing home price growth. However, progress on long-term housing affordability could be hampered if inventory growth continues to stall.” People who experienced heartache more likely to turn to Bible Last week, the American Bible Society released the fourth chapter of its “State of the Bible: USA 2026” report.  The survey found that people who experienced a negative life event in the past year were significantly more likely to be Bible users than those who had not experienced that challenge. Such challenges included divorce, natural disaster, life-threatening illness or injury, death of a close friend or family member, and unemployment. The report noted, “Amidst hardships, those who regularly engage with Scripture maintain significantly higher flourishing scores.” In John 16:33, Jesus said, “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world, you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Worldview listeners weigh in from Kansas, Washington, and Indiana Susan Tarwater in Hoyt, Kansas, wrote me and said, “I do not watch television. So, I depend on The Worldview as a shortened version of important news I need to hear. Especially news that a Christian needs to be aware of without all the glitter.” Tom Lister in Spokane, Washington wrote me to say, “Adam, I listen to your broadcast every weekday morning. I especially like how you keep us informed about the church, the persecution of many, and how, in many places, the church is slipping into apostasy. I also appreciate how you always end on a very positive outlook. Keep up the good fight! I'm a monthly supporter already but might be able to increase the amount.” And Melinda Johnson in Indianapolis, Indiana, wrote, “I've been listening to and reading The Worldview for several years now. My favorite part of the news is hearing about different stories that are not reported by mainstream media -- things like persecuted Christians, updates on abortion, how the Gospel is impacting the world, and issues affecting the conservative Christian movement. “The Worldview is quite different than any other news, even Christian sources, that cover the regular news. Your newscast brings up topics that help me know what to pray for in the world. You and the team are continuing in a great work!” 3 Worldview listeners gave $205 And finally, on Tuesday by 6:00pm Central, only 3 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another year Our thanks to Teresa in Haverford, Pennsylvania who gave $5 as well as Lawrence in Lynchburg, Virginia and Gary in Westminster, Colorado – both of whom gave $100 Those 3 gifts add up to $205.

With Scope 3 accounting for over 90% of overall emissions, Starbucks has seen its GHG footprint grow by 7% overall since 2019.The reassessment of the goal comes as the company takes “a fresh, comprehensive look at our sustainability goals,” according to a blog post by Starbucks' Chief Sustainability and Social Impact Officer Kelly Goodejohn, as part of the company's ‘Back to Starbucks' strategy initiated by CEO Brain Niccol. From the Impact Report:Overall Grants from the Starbucks FoundationFY25 $13.6M ($31M)FY24 $21.4M ($96M)Delaware Court of Chancery Interprets New Section 144 and Applies Heightened Presumption of Director IndependenceThe Opinion arose in a common context in Delaware stockholder litigation: claims over director and management compensation. In the decision, Vice Chancellor Lori W. Will applied, for the first time, the statute's heightened presumption of independence for directors of public companies determined by the board to be independent under the relevant NYSE or Nasdaq listing standards to dismiss derivative claims on demand futility grounds.In conducting the demand futility analysis, which looks to whether a majority of the board can independently consider a stockholder demand to bring derivative litigation, the Court reasoned that the new statutory language requiring a plaintiff to plead “substantial and particularized facts” to rebut the “heightened” presumption of independence sets a higher bar than under pre-existing law. Specifically, the Court held that the addition of “substantial” to the existing standard that already required particularized facts meant that “a plaintiff must plead specific, non-conclusory facts of sufficient qualitative significance to support a reasonable inference of a material interest or relationship that would impair the director's objective judgment.” The Court was clear that it is not a matter of quantity but rather quality, observing that “a collection of trivial facts” will not rise to the level of materiality required to satisfy this “heightened” standard. Applying that standard to the facts in the case, the Court concluded that the plaintiff's allegations of various overlapping board positions, overlapping investments, and other “business ties” with the company's founder and non-executive chairman were not sufficiently material.DR2The Boardroom Buy-InThe Taser CEO Who Says AI Is the Future of PolicingTaser and body-cam king Rick Smith is betting Axon's dominance—and his own pay package—on his tech-driven vision66% influenceRick Smith: Every 30 seconds one of his Tasers is fired by somebody in the U.S., usually a police officer.The pay package he and his board put together catapulted him to the top of last year's list of the highest-paid CEOs, with a compensation package valued at $164.4 million.33% no 2025; 10% no 2026Smith has already hit three of seven goals.

The Kyoto-based gaming giant has recently announced a 10% increase to base salaries for its employees, a move that highlights its commitment to talent retention while everyone else is laying off employees.Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa made the announcement during a recent shareholder meeting, emphasising that maintaining competitive compensation is central to the company's strategy. The raise applies to the company's workforce, which has grown to over 8,200 employees, the highest headcount in Nintendo's history.IN: CEO Shuntaro Furukawa's (18%) annual executive compensation at Nintendo generally totals around $2.5MOUT: 63% of shares held by institutional investors.

The department issued a technical release in April warning that proxy advisory firms may be subject to ERISA fiduciary standards and that proxy voting is a fiduciary act under the law that must be carried out “for the exclusive purpose of maximizing risk-adjusted return.”From the technical release in April: The Department has long recognized that voting rights and other shareholder rights attributable to shares held by ERISA-governed employee benefit plans are plan assets in their own right. Accordingly, management of those rights is subject to ERISA's fiduciary duties, including the duties of prudence and loyalty. The Department first issued guidance on this topic in the 1980s. For example, a 1988 letter (Avon Letter) noted that “it is the Department's position that the decision as to how proxies should be voted . . . are fiduciary acts of plan asset management.”(2)Proxy advisory firms may also be functional fiduciaries under ERISA section 3(21)(A)(ii) by providing investment advice for a fee to plans with respect to property of that plan.Here's why it's interesting:Defining fiduciaries as those who provide advice for a fee means everyone selling research is a fiduciary if the research is used in an investment decisionThe DOL is squarely defining proxy voting as a fiduciary act - which means that there can be no rational apathy as Mike Levin likes to talk about - if voting your proxies is definitionally your fiduciary duty, you can't defer it or ignore itIf you vote 99% in favor of management, you definitionally are ignoring your fiduciary duty - half of companies will underperform some peer set, meaning they produced fewer returns than peers, in any given year. So you either set the time frame longer (thus forcing the inclusion of long term data like climate and social factors) and say that in any one year it makes sense to vote with management to allow them time to execute strategy, OR you should be voting against nearly half of management proposals for underperformers each year because they are not producing pecuniary returnsGovernance chairs remain under pressure as investor scrutiny rises despite rising support for directors, research showsISS found that the MEDIAN support for directors has hit 98%They found that governance/nom chairs (those are specifically governance/nom committee chairs) had median support of 94.1%Pay chairs had 96.9% supportMM2The Boardroom Buy-InJPMorgan built a pipeline of female CEO candidates that was the envy of Wall Street.

Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman return from a packed week of travel, covering HPE Discover 2026 and Pure Accelerate hosted by Everpure. They break down the government-forced shutdown of Anthropic's Mythos 5, the Apple-Intel foundry signal, the xAI-Cursor acquisition, and whether enterprise AI spending is actually contracting or simply concentrating. Episode 309 of The Six Five Pod covers the week's events, market moves, and the structural questions that follow. The handpicked topics for this week are: Anthropic Mythos 5 Forced Shutdown: The U.S. government issued a 90-minute compliance window and a worldwide kill switch on Anthropic's Mythos 5 and Claude Fable 5 models, forcing them offline across all geographies. Patrick and Daniel examine what this means beyond the immediate headlines: model access has entered the same geopolitical variable set as semiconductor export controls, and every enterprise CIO now has a new on-premises infrastructure argument on the table. The shutdown also surfaced an unexpected counterpoint from the cybersecurity community, which argued that Mythos 5, operating in a defensive capacity, was itself a protection layer against the use of adversarial models. Anthropic's decision to revoke access globally rather than implement citizenship-based authentication reflected both the 90-minute timeline and the practical impossibility of real-time identity verification at scale. (The Decode) HPE Discover 2026: The Agentic Infrastructure Story: Six Five Media spent multiple days at HPE Discover in Las Vegas, live-streaming coverage that drew more than 30,000 viewers across the event. Patrick and Daniel break down HPE's most complete agentic stack story to date, covering its networking-led compute approach, expanded NVIDIA and Broadcom silicon partnerships, autonomous networking through Marvis, and Juniper's integration into the AMD Helios interconnect as a path into hyperscale deals HPE previously lacked access to. (The Decode) Pure Accelerate 2026 and the Everpure Data Primacy Pitch: At Pure Accelerate, Everpure made its clearest case yet for a data intelligence layer designed to reduce token costs in enterprise AI workflows by operating across any storage vendor, any enterprise application, and without being hard-coded into the underlying array. Patrick and Daniel assess the value proposition and the proof burden separately: the concept is differentiated, particularly against Snowflake and Databricks, in that Everpure does not require its own storage hardware, but the company still needs to demonstrate ROI at scale and earn permission to compete in a market where data platform players have already established category positioning. (The Decode) Apple and Intel: The 18AP Signal and What It Sets Up for 14A: The announcement that Apple will manufacture chips with Intel sent Intel's stock up roughly 10%. The hosts parse what that deal likely looks like in practice: 18AP as a test drive for lower-risk logic-layer parts, with the more consequential milestone being a potential M7 SoC on Intel's 18AP process. The underlying driver is the TSMC capacity constraint, with Samsung logic deals picking up across the industry for the same reason. The real inflection point that Patrick notes is 14A: if Intel's backside power delivery process reaches risk production and scales to iPhone volume by 2028, the strategic weight of the Apple relationship will fully materialize. (The Decode) xAI Acquires Cursor for $60 Billion: Elon Musk's xAI acquired Cursor for $60 billion using equity inflated by SpaceX's IPO run-up, a move Patrick characterizes as buying market position in a category where xAI arrived late, having missed the window on thinking models and tool calling. Cursor brought $4 billion in ARR, 7 million monthly active users, and 50% Fortune 500 penetration into the deal. The open question remains whether xAI can convert that installed base into a durable enterprise AI stack or whether it remains primarily a GPU capacity provider selling at well above neo cloud market rates, with the Google-SpaceX deal drawing additional scrutiny as a related-party transaction preceding the IPO. (The Decode) The Flip: Is Enterprise AI Spending Contracting or Concentrating? Patrick takes the position that enterprise AI is entering a rationing phase, pointing to Accenture's bookings decline, Microsoft cutting developer access to cloud code, Uber blowing through cloud licenses, and the emergence of AI cost management as a venture category as converging proof points. Daniel argues the opposing case: dollar volume is growing even as project counts fall, hyperscaler CapEx guidance continues to accelerate across Microsoft, Google, Amazon, and Meta, and what reads as contraction is the market moving from subsidized pilots to production deployments tied to measurable P&L outcomes. Both agree the hard ROI era is arriving, and the real debate is whether that transition reads as discipline or deceleration on the way in. (The Flip) Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's First Meeting: New Fed Chair Kevin Warsh held rates steady in a unanimous decision but delivered remarks that the market viewed as hawkish, sending the S&P lower and two-year yields up 16 basis points before a partial recovery the following day. Patrick and Daniel note the structural signal beneath the reaction: Warsh is establishing the Fed's independence from political pressure while also signaling an intent to move away from survey-based data that arrives three to six months stale, in favor of more real-time economic inputs. Daniel draws a direct line to the kind of forward-looking data infrastructure that firms like Palantir, Databricks, and Snowflake are positioned to provide at the institutional level. (Bulls and Bears) Iran-Israel-U.S. Developments and Oil Below $80: A Memorandum of Understanding between Iran, Israel, and the U.S. briefly sent oil below $80 and signaled a potential opening of the Strait of Hormuz, though by the time of recording, reports were already emerging that the situation may be reversing. Patrick and Daniel keep it brief: the market has largely looked through the geopolitical noise, rallying through the period of conflict, and the oil price signal matters more to the macro environment than the diplomatic specifics. (Bulls and Bears) Accenture Earnings — The Services Layer Faces the Agentic Reckoning: Accenture beat on earnings but missed on revenue. The company reported a bookings decline of 2%, trimmed its 2026 revenue guide by 3-4%, and saw its worst single-day stock reaction in years. Patrick and Daniel use the result as a structural lens rather than a single-quarter data point: agentic AI and enterprise technology vendors are absorbing exactly the work that large professional services firms have historically owned, and the market is beginning to price that displacement ahead of the labor data catching up. Patrick flags this as the canary in the coal mine for the global services industry broadly. (Bulls and Bears) SpaceX IPO Volatility and Valuation Reality: The SpaceX IPO debuted at $135, surged above $210 on its first day of trading, and finished the week around $181. At its peak, the company briefly surpassed the market capitalizations of both Amazon and Microsoft before pulling back. Patrick and Daniel unpack the gap between the premium investors are assigning to Elon Musk and the company's underlying fundamentals. Despite generating roughly $50 billion in annual revenue, SpaceX remains unprofitable, and upcoming lock-up expirations could introduce meaningful volatility, particularly on the downside. Patrick points to long-term comparisons with Amazon and Tesla, while noting that many retail investors are still near break-even. The discussion explores how much of SpaceX's valuation is based on future potential versus current performance—and how much room remains for investor expectations to reset before fundamentals catch up.

Bitcoin just flashed one of its most reliable historical buy signals — dipping below its 200-week moving average twice in two weeks, a setup Kraken's Chief Economist Thomas Perfumo says has delivered 113% MEDIAN returns over the following year (and 313% over two years), with median time to break even of just TWO DAYS. The signal has only triggered on roughly 10% of all trading days since 2017. But the bull case lands into a brutal backdrop: Add Franklin Templeton filing BTC-reinvesting dividend ETFs, BlackRock's BITA pitched as "too big to ignore" for income investors, and Illinois passing the most punitive crypto tax in the country — and today's setup is the wildest bull/bear divergence we've seen all cycle. We break down whether Kraken's 113% historical signal will hold against Saylor's structural crisis, what miners going below cost actually means, and whether BTC's two-day median break-even is the bull case nobody's talking about.

In this episode of the American Dream Factory Podcast, Nick Smoot sits down with Daron Babcock, Managing Director of Community Transformation at Stand Together Foundation and founder of Bonton Farms, for a powerful conversation about poverty, dignity, health, faith, entrepreneurship, and what it actually takes to transform a community.Daron's story begins far from the nonprofit world. He started his first business at fifteen, wrestled at the University of Oklahoma, worked in corporate America, helped run a beverage distributorship, launched a startup, and eventually entered the world of private equity after his company was acquired by Blackstone.But after the death of his first wife, Daron's life took a different turn. Through grief, friendship, faith, and a hunger for deeper human connection, he found himself drawn into Bonton, a struggling neighborhood in South Dallas. What began as a desire to be a better friend became a long-term commitment to living in proximity with people most of society had overlooked.At the time, Bonton faced staggering challenges. Median household income was around $19,000. High school graduation rates were low. Teen pregnancy, infant mortality, incarceration, chronic disease, and early death were painfully common. But Daron did not see a community defined by failure. He saw trapped potential.The first lesson was simple but profound: listen and respond.Residents told him they needed jobs, so Daron started with workforce development. But that effort quickly revealed deeper barriers. Many people were too sick to work. Others lacked transportation, access to fresh food, safe housing, health care, banking, or the confidence to articulate their own value. What looked like a jobs problem was actually a system problem.That insight led to the creation of Bonton Farms, which became far more than an urban farm. It became an economic engine, a health intervention, a gathering place, and a catalyst for local businesses including a coffee house, farm-to-table restaurant, security company, facility maintenance company, landscape business, and more. As dollars began circulating inside the neighborhood, wealth and confidence began to build.Daron explains that real community transformation requires more than charity. It requires building the conditions where people can flourish: relationships, economic opportunity, health, transportation, education, safe housing, and access to the basic tools needed to participate fully in life.Over eight years, Bonton saw dramatic improvement. Median household income more than doubled. Home values rose. Graduation rates improved. Teen pregnancy dropped. Crime declined significantly.Nick and Daron also explore the failures of modern philanthropy, the danger of toxic empathy, the limits of giving money without proximity, and the need to measure what actually matters. They discuss why downstream interventions alone will never solve upstream problems, why human flourishing must be measured by the people experiencing it, and why the future of community transformation depends on believing in people enough to hold them accountable to their own potential.This is a conversation about dignity, systems, friendship, health, faith, business, poverty, and the hard, slow, beautiful work of helping people and places become whole.Key ThemesProximity creates the will to change.Jobs alone are not enough.Poverty is a systems problem, not a people problem.Market-driven solutions can restore dignity.Health is foundational to human flourishing.Charity without accountability can become harmful.Human flourishing must be measured.Resources MentionedBonton FarmsStand Together FoundationPoverty, Inc.Toxic Charity by Robert D.

Your CRM knows what happened. It doesn't know why—or what's about to happen next. That gap is costing revenue teams millions in preventable churn, missed expansion, and deals that slip away long before anyone saw it coming.In this episode of TECHtonic, TSIA Executive Director Thomas Lah sits down with Alok Shukla, CEO and co-founder of Funnel Story, to explore a new category of technology: the AI-powered revenue intelligence layer. Unlike traditional CRM dashboards that report on structured activity data in a single point in time, Funnel Story's patented composite model combines structured data (usage, revenue, activity), unstructured conversational data (calls, emails, notes), and third-party market signals—then reverse-engineers your full historical timeline to train itself from day one. Median deployment time: less than a day.Alok introduces the concept of “needle movers”—AI-detected early warning patterns that surface months before churn or expansion become visible to any human. He shares a compelling real-world example where signals from three different organizational levels (an executive conversation, a support ticket, and a CSM interaction) were silently pointing to competitive risk—patterns that only emerged because of historical churn analysis. Without the intelligence layer connecting those dots, the account would have been marked “healthy” right up until it churned.Drawing on his 20+ years in cybersecurity (McAfee, Intel Security, Imperva), Alok makes a powerful analogy: the Security Operations Center went from 80% people / 20% tech to nearly the inverse over 20 years—and that transformation is now coming for revenue and CS organizations. The leaders who will thrive are those who start thinking now about what it means to manage a fleet of agents rather than a team of reps.

The US economy added 115,000 jobs in April -- and the numbers look solid on the surface. But dig a little deeper and you'll find a tech sector in freefall, a housing market frozen in place, and consumer sentiment that hit a 74-year low. This bonus episode breaks down the May jobs report, which came out a week late because the Bureau of Labor Statistics pushed its release from the first Friday to the second Friday of the month. The job gains were concentrated in healthcare, transportation, warehousing, and retail. Healthcare alone added 37,000 jobs, driven largely by nursing facilities and home health care services for an aging population. Retail gains clustered in discount stores and warehouse clubs - not department stores or electronics retailers - which tells you consumers are spending more carefully. Tech got hit hard. The information sector lost another 13,000 jobs in April and is now down 342,000 jobs - about 11 percent - from its November 2022 peak. People working part-time because they can't find full-time work jumped by 445,000 in a single month. Consumer sentiment is at its lowest point in 74 years of University of Michigan tracking - worse than 2008, worse than the inflation of the 1970s. One reason: gas prices. There's a psychological outsized effect to standing at a pump watching the total climb every week, versus an invisible mortgage adjustment buried in a monthly bank statement. The housing market didn't get its usual spring bounce. Existing home sales ticked up just 0.2 percent between March and April. Inventory rose 5.8 percent, but at 4.4 months of supply, the market still needs roughly 30 percent more inventory to reach balance. Median sale price sits at $417,700, up less than 1 percent year over year. Homes are averaging 32 days on market - giving buyers more negotiating leverage than they've had in years.
