Daniel Mahncke and Shawn O'Malley break down Visa (ticker: V), the global payments powerhouse that acts as the invisible engine behind billions of transactions every day. Visa doesn't issue cards, lend money, or handle customer accounts — instead, it operates the network that connects banks, merchants, and consumers in over 200 countries. Whether you're tapping your card for a coffee, shopping online, or sending money abroad, there's a good chance Visa is taking a small slice behind the scenes. Visa is to the global economy what highways are to cars — an essential infrastructure layer that makes modern commerce move. In this episode, you'll learn how Visa evolved from a consortium of banks to a dominant public company, how it defends its massive competitive moat, where growth will come from beyond traditional card payments, whether emerging technologies like account-to-account payments pose a real threat, how to think about Visa's valuation, plus so much more!

I have been an entrepreneur from 2012-2017 building two products AddoDoc and Babygogo. After selling my company to SHEROES, I and my partner Nansi decided to start up again. But we felt unequipped in our skillset in 2018 to build a large company. We had known 0-1 journeys from our startups but lacked the experience of building 1-10 journeys. Hence was born The Neon Show (Earlier 100x Entrepreneur) to learn from founders and investors, the mindset to scale yourself and your company. This quest still keeps us excited even after 5 years and doing 200+ episodes.We welcome you to our journey to understand what goes behind building a super successful company.

Theatre director Robert Icke's production of Oedipus won best revival and a best actress award for Lesley Manville at last night's Olivier Awards - but his new play Manhunt is now demanding his attention at the Royal Court Theatre in London. The drama focuses on the story of Raoul Moat who attacked his ex-girlfriend and killed her new boyfriend before a stand-off with armed police which ended in his suicide. Samira talks to Robert Icke and to Samuel Edward-Cook who plays Moat. The Edwardian era - from Queen Victoria's death to the start of the First World War - is the subject of a new exhibition at the King's Gallery in London. Samira is joined by its curator Kathryn Jones from the Royal Collection Trust and by the historian and Alwyn Turner, author of Little Englanders: Britain in the Edwardian Era.The Swinging Sixties bring to mind films like Michael Caine's Alfie and the social realist dramas like Up The Junction. But A Touch of Love, released in 1969 and now getting a fresh outing on DVD, offers up an unusual female perspective on the era of free love. Margaret Drabble adapted her own novel the Millstone for the film which starred Sandy Dennis - alongside a young Ian McKellen in his first screen role. We hear from its director Waris Hussein - who also directed the first episodes of Dr Who.

My guest on the show today is Tal Keinan, the CEO of Sky Harbor Group, a publicly traded developer and operator of airplane hangars. Before conducting the interview, I had the opportunity to learn a lot about Sky Harbor from an investor friend who owns the stock and knows the company as well as just about anyone on the planet.

It's a big week in Houston with NAPE in town, and we were thrilled to welcome our good friend David Bat, President of Kimberlite Research, for an in-depth discussion of the latest OFS activity, trends, and technologies. David joined Kimberlite in 2015 and holds over 30 years of experience spanning upstream, power, and oilfield research. Kimberlite is a global oil and gas market research and consulting firm that gathers insights from more than 20,000 hours of annual interviews with industry professionals to analyze market trends and benchmark performance for oilfield equipment and service providers. We were excited to hear David's perspectives on the evolving OFS landscape.In our conversation, David provides background on Kimberlite's unique approach to gathering high-quality data from E&P operators and oilfield service users worldwide. He explains how their methodology offers deeper insights into technology adoption, service quality, and operational performance and walks us through key slides from a presentation (full version linked here). We explore recent technological advancements including rotary steerable systems improving drilling efficiency, self-oriented perforating guns enhancing completion effectiveness, and advancements in electric submersible pumps. We discuss how digitalization, software applications, and AI-driven analytics are reshaping oilfield operations as well as trends in frac technology, oilfield electrification, and shifts in fuel choices. David shares factors driving operator recommendations and highlights the contrast between North American and international markets, the potential for unconventional growth in Argentina, Australia, and the Middle East, the resurgence of offshore developments, and the challenges that prevent certain innovations from gaining widespread traction. We explore broader key industry themes, including consolidation trends in oilfield services, how company culture influences service provider success, the growing role of mobile power solutions across both oil and gas and non-energy sectors, and AI's role in data aggregation, market intelligence, and operational decision-making. We end by asking David for his vision of the oil and gas services industry in the next decade. This is where he makes a great comment about "differentiation and an improving competitive moat" around the best companies. It was a wide-ranging and thought-provoking discussion and we're very grateful to David for sharing his expertise with us.

Deposits into this account are used to purchase 10 investment-grade and high-yield bonds. As of 9/26/24, the average, annualized yield to worst (YTW) across the Bond Account is greater than 6%. A bond's yield is a function of its market price, which can fluctuate; therefore, a bond's YTW is not “locked in” until the bond is purchased, and your yield at time of purchase may be different from the yield shown here. The “locked in” YTW is not guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTW of the bonds in the Bond Account if you sell any of the bonds before maturity or if the issuer defaults on the bond. Public Investing charges a markup on each bond trade. See our Fee Schedule. Bond Accounts are not recommendations of individual bonds or default allocations. The bonds in the Bond Account have not been selected based on your needs or risk profile.

In Where's the Moat?, Andrew Wilkinson and Steve Sosnick break down the seismic shift in the AI landscape, exploring how DeepSeek's disruptive model challenges NVIDIA's dominance and reshapes investor expectations. Is the AI gold rush facing a reckoning, or just evolving into a new era?

Jim Bianco says it's China's way to “take what we have and make it cheaper” on the DeepSeek news. He says it makes it easier for smaller players to enter the A.I. market and could disrupt U.S. dominance. He also thinks traders have been watching for opportunities to short the Mag 7. On the Fed, he doesn't expect a rate cut this month and is waiting to see if Trump publicly “rips” Powell on social media. ======== Schwab Network ======== Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

"Economic MOAT" — a business's ability to maintain a competitive edge over its competitors. Andrej P. Škraba, Boris Cergol, Jaša Andrenšek, Simon Belak, Luka Dremelj in Klemen Selakovič se enkrat na mesec (remote / na daljavo) pogovarjamo o trenutno aktualnih tematikah iz sveta razvoja tehnologije umetne inteligence, podjetništva, ekonomije in politike. ============================= Tematike: V pogovoru se raziskujejo ključni koncepti umetne inteligence, vključno z AGI (splošna umetna inteligenca) in ASI (super inteligenca). Razpravljamo o agentnosti, zavesti in etičnih dilemah, ki jih prinaša napredek tehnologije. Razpravljali smo o razvoju generativnih modelov, njihovih potencialnih nevarnostih in o tem, kako lahko umetna inteligenca vpliva na prepričevanje in interakcije med ljudmi. Poudarili smo tudi pomen regulacije in odgovornosti v kontekstu umetne inteligence ter izzive, s katerimi se sooča Evropa v primerjavi z ZDA.   Razpravljali smo tudi o demokratizaciji tehnologije in izzivih financiranja ter stroškov razvoja AI. ============================= Prijavi se in vsak petek prejmi 5 linkov, ki jih ustvarjalci podkastov Dialog in RE:MOAT priporočamo tisti teden (knjige, dokumentarci, članki, podkast epizode …): https://aidea.si/aidea-mailing-lista
