Podcasts about money markets

There’s a hidden market that might crash the economy in 2025. Tariff chaos. Leverage in the Repo Market. A burgeoning liquidity crisis. There’s an iceberg, dead ahead, only we can’t see below the surface to know how big it is. In this episode Max takes a big swing at the existential crisis brewing in the financial markets. Trump’s tariffs, declining economic data and slumping global demand will potentially neutralize half of the Fed’s crisis response arsenal. The logical and expected response to what is shaping up to be a catastrophic summer is the “Fed Put.” In other words, another bailout. But if the Fed looks to expand its balance sheet to accomplish this during a liquidity crisis, will the buyers of U.S. debt show up? Inflation and a weak dollar, frayed nerves in the bond market and more reckless behavior coming out of the White House could cause a run on the big banks and other firms that live in the “shadow repo” market leaving the Fed balancing the world on its shoulders.

One of the main innovators in this field remains Balancer - from multi-token pools with different weights replicating TradFi indices, to dynamic ratios that can be changed under certain conditions preventing further imbalances, Balancer set in place user protection measures.

Xsolla State of Play report: https://xsolla.com/newsroom/xsolla-autumn-2024-report Mobile gaming is bigger than ever, with the industry set to hit $98.7 billion in 2024. But where is that growth coming from? In this episode, we sit down with Xsolla's Chris Hewish to break down the key trends shaping the global market—from Asia's dominance to the rise of emerging regions like Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East. We also dig into how player demographics are shifting and what it means for game makers.

*previously recorded on 03/15/24, but still relevant* Last week we talked about creating quarterly financial goals with a fun activity, and we thought it would be a good time to also revisit your risk tolerance with this episode we did on the “risk pyramid.”At the time of recording, The Fed still didn't cut interest rates, but projected they would 3 times, so it was a great time to lock in the higher rates that we saw in fixed income securities (bonds, etc) up until several months ago. Did you notice your HYSA interest rate has come down since then? We did prepare you for that, so if you're not able to stay updated on everything going on in the markets and with The Federal Reserve, you might want to subscribe to the podcast.

In this episode of The Open Door, panelists Jim Hanink, Valerie Niemeyer, and Christopher Zehnder discuss Catholic social thought and economics. That means taking a long, hard look at capitalism in practice and the dominance of corporations. We'll explore the nature of usury and what's at issue in a fair wage. We'll consider the State as a political community and the family as the cornerstone of social justice. We'll talk about personal responsibility as the foundation of a just social order. Our welcome guests are Thomas Storck, the editor of Money, Markets, and Morals (En Route Books, 2024) and its Australian contributors Dr. Donald Boland and Dr. Garrick Small, as well as the American distributist thinkers John Médaille and David Cooney. Among the questions we'll address to this panel are the following. Please feel free to suggest your own!Is Catholic social teaching a dimension of moral theology?How should we define capitalism? How can it become a threat to justice?What is the origin of the modern corporation? Is there any way to challenge its power?Can you compare and contrast for us, say, the Bank of America, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, a publicly owned bank or a credit union? What dangers does the former pose?Just what is usury? Why is it wrong? Can you give examples of usurious practicesWhat is the distinction between a market wage and a fair wage? Where does a minimum wage guarantee fit in?What is the basis of ownership? Do we own our bodies and our lives?Should we think of the State as the political community of the highest degree?Does the current economic order recognize the family as the first unit of a just society? What would a “family politics” look like?In what ways might we practice personal responsibility in today's profoundly complex economic order? Is personal responsibility compatible with stock ownership?

Cash & Money Markets are not Long-Term Investments  With many companies in the stock market more expensive than we'd like to see, we have been sitting on more cash in a money market than we normally would. While the 5% or so in interest is nice for the time being, we are using this as a temporary parking place until we find a good long-term investment. It could take one week or it could be three months, but the important factor is we are not considering this as a long-term investment. I know many people right now are happy with their money market rates and would totally miss a great opportunity if it presents itself to continue investing in the money market. I believe this will be extremely damaging for their long-term returns, especially as short-term rates are likely to fall. Looking long term cash will likely not beat stocks and in a recent Vanguard paper, they showed global stocks earned about 6% more a year than cash from 1901 to 2022. Don't become complacent with the short-term yields, as you could miss a great investment that could help you over the next three to five years.  AI and Jobs Some people are worried about artificial intelligence taking away many jobs. I remember hearing about the same concern when computers first came out, but in reality, they created new jobs. Investment firm Goldman Sachs projects that by the end of 2034, artificial intelligence could boost the GDP to 2.3%. According to the Census Bureau's November 2023 Business Trends and Outlook Survey, only 3.9% of businesses nationwide have used artificial intelligence, which includes machine learning, natural language processing, virtual agents and voice recognition. Another survey by Deloitte discovered that 87% of private businesses who were surveyed, expect artificial intelligence to increase their labor productivity within the next three years. It is true that change is always scary and it is true that AI will replace some jobs, but it will also create jobs that haven't even been thought of yet. It will also make our economy more productive, which then should increase the overall wealth of consumers.  Apple in China Relations between the US and China are rather strained currently and Apple could be paying the price for that. In the Wall Street Journal, they released information that the company has discounted phones in China by $70, which normally sell for around $600 on average. On a side note, wouldn't be great to get an iPhone for $600? Consumers in China have been switching to Huawei phones as the government in China and consumers begin to feel more comfortable with the company's technological progress. If you remember a while back, we did post that the Chinese government had banned the use of iPhones in government agencies. So, Apple is now fighting with the government of China, despite what Tim Cook says and they are also fighting with the Federal Trade Commission in United States as well. They are definitely in the middle of some major storms, which could go on for years hampering sales growth for their products. This could cost the company their premium valuation on earnings, which means no stock growth going forward at best. There could also be a pull back in the stock on the horizon if they are not able to return to sound growth.  Financial Planning: Tax Rate on Gold Investing in gold has been popular recently, but it is important for investors to understand how gold is taxed. Federally there are 7 tax brackets (10%, 12%, 22%, 24%, 32%, 35%, 37%) which ordinary income is subject to. Ordinary income includes most sources like wages, interest, and IRA distributions. There are also separate brackets for certain types of investment income like long-term capital gains and qualified dividends. Depending on the amount of taxable income, the tax rate is either 0%, 15%, or 20%, plus there can be an extra 3.8% tax if AGI is above $200k or $250k depending on filing status. Basically, this type of investment income will always be taxed at a lower rate than if it had been received as ordinary income. There is also a third set of brackets that is applied to income earned from collectibles, which includes gold. If gold is bought and sold more than a year later for more, it is considered a collectible long-term capital gain which is taxed at ordinary income rates for those in the 10%, 12%, 22%, or 24% brackets. For those in the 32%, 35%, or 37% brackets, gold is taxed at a maximum rate of 28%, but it can also be subject to the additional 3.8% net investment income tax for those with higher AGI levels. This tax rate includes investments backed by physical gold such as a gold ETF. If you are considering buying gold, be prepared to pay more taxes than you would on other types of investment income.   Stocks Discussed: Starbucks (SBUX), Chegg (CHGG) and Apple (AAPL)

I'd love to be able to tell you ‘hey, every year all four of those are at the top of the price performance chart,' but it usually does not end up that way. There's typically a split of two of them up at the top and two of them at the bottom…[so] I like to say they're ‘seasoning.'

AJ is a Founding Contributor at Silo Finance. In this Quick Hit, we guide you through Silo Finance's risk-isolated money markets. Silo is a DeFi protocol on Ethereum and Arbitrum where isolated lending and borrowing pools can be created for individual tokens. This approach is different from the shared pool design of Aave and Compound, which means long tail assets can be listed while lenders can potentially earn higher yields lending to these markets. With over $300M in liquidity across its Ethereum, Llama (crvUSD markets on Ethereum), and Arbitrum markets, AJ shares how this design can provide us more control and opportunity as DeFi lenders and borrowers, as well as future plans for Silo V2 including the implementation of veSILO tokenomics. ------

Who hasn't wished for a surefire formula for riches and a ticket to the good life? For three centuries, investment advisers of all kinds, legit and otherwise, have guaranteed that they alone can illuminate the golden pathway to prosperity—despite strong evidence to the contrary. In fact, too often, they are singing a siren song of devastation. And yet we keep listening. Invested: Invested: How Three Centuries of Stock Market Advice Reshaped Our Money, Markets, and Minds (U Chicago Press, 2022) tells the story of how the genre of investment advice developed and grew in the United Kingdom and the United States, from its origins in the eighteenth century through today, as it saturates our world. The authors analyze centuries of books, TV shows, blogs, and more, all promising techniques for amateur investors to master the ways of the market: from Thomas Mortimer's pathbreaking 1761 work, Every Man His Own Broker, through the Gilded Age explosion of sensationalist investment manuals, the early twentieth-century emergence of a vernacular financial science, and the more recent convergence of self-help and personal finance. Invested asks why, in the absence of evidence that such advice reliably works, guides to the stock market have remained perennially popular. The authors argue that the appeal of popular investment advice lies in its promise to level the playing field, giving outsiders the privileged information of insiders. As Invested persuasively shows, the fantasies sold by these writings are damaging and deceptive, peddling unrealistic visions of easy profits and the certainty of success, while trying to hide the fact that there is no formula for avoiding life's economic uncertainties and calamities.
