Et si ce que vous vivez aujourd'hui ne venait pas seulement de vous… mais aussi de vos ancêtres ?C'est ce que révèle l'épigénétique — une discipline passionnante qui explore comment nos émotions, nos choix de vie et même nos blessures familiales peuvent influencer l'expression de nos gènes.Imaginez votre ADN comme une immense bibliothèque.Les gènes, ce sont les livres.Et l'épigénétique, c'est le bibliothécaire : il décide quels chapitres seront lus, et lesquels resteront fermés.Et ce bibliothécaire réagit à tout — au stress, à l'amour, à la joie, à la méditation, à l'environnement.Résultat : rien n'est figé.Nos gènes ne sont pas une fatalité, mais une partition que nous rejouons chaque jour selon notre façon de vivre, de penser et de ressentir.

Le géant américain des puces Nvidia est devenu mercredi la première entreprise au monde à franchir le cap symbolique des 5.000 milliards de dollars. Ce record mondial est la preuve de l'appétit accru pour les valeurs liées à l'intelligence artificielle par les investisseurs.Depuis le début de l'année, le cours de la valeur s'est envolé de près de 60%. L'entreprise était aussi poussée par la perspective d'une autorisation de la vente de son architecture de processeurs sur le marché chinois, alors qu'une rencontre est attendue jeudi entre le président américain et son homologue chinois, où le sujet de l'intelligence artificielle devrait être au menu. En Europe, les dernières prévisions de bénéfices publiées montraient par ailleurs que les perspectives sur la santé des entreprises européennes se sont légèrement améliorées. Deutsche Bank, a annoncé lors de sa publication de résultat une hausse inattendue de 7% de son bénéfice au troisième trimestre, et clôturait la séance à près de 5% de hausse. De son côté la valeur française Capgemini clôturait la séance en 1ère position du CAC 40 à plus de 2%, soutenu par la bonne publication des résultats trimestrielles et le relèvement de ses prévisions de croissance annuelle.Hébergé par Ausha.

Les précisions de Mélissa Simonot, spécialiste du Human Design !

Et si, avant de donner la vie, il fallait d'abord revenir à la source ?À cet espace sacré qu'on oublie trop souvent : l'utérus. On le réduit à un organe, à une fonction biologique… mais c'est bien plus que ça.C'est une mémoire, un langage, une vibration.Un lieu qui garde trace de nos joies, de nos blessures, de nos héritages.Dans cet épisode, on parle du lien profond entre le corps, l'émotion et la féminité.Comment se reconnecter à son utérus, non pas comme à un organe à réparer, mais comme à un temple à réhabiter ?

Don and Tom tackle the timeless topic of diversification — why it's back in style, why it's so hard to maintain, and why most investors (and pros) still get it wrong. They walk through how market “leadership” shifts over decades, the global vs. U.S. split, and why comparing your portfolio to the S&P 500 is often a trap. Listener questions cover ETF access at T.

Apriamo la puntata tornando sull'ennesimo e ultimo caso di femminicidio. È avvenuto a Milano e anche in questo caso alla base del gesto la non accettazione da parte del marito della fine della relazione. Stefano Ciccone, sociologo e fondatore di Maschile Plurale ci spiega come educano gli uomini violenti. Parliamo poi con il presidente Arno Kompatscher della provincia di Bolzano delle polemiche che da giorni hanno investito Jannik Sinner per la sua rinuncia alla Coppa Davis e per le tasse pagate a Montecarlo. Infine approfondiamo la figura del fisico Ettore Majorana perché al Senato è approdato un suo presunto macchinario che lascia perplesso gran parte del mondo scientifico.

Le transgénérationnel, c'est cette mémoire invisible transmise de génération en génération.Des peurs, des schémas, des injonctions — “sois fort”, “ne te plains pas”, “travaille dur” — qui s'inscrivent dans le corps avant même qu'on les comprenne.On rejoue parfois l'histoire d'un ancêtre sans le savoir, jusqu'à ce qu'on décide d'en sortir.

Et si le burn-out n'était pas une chute… mais un réveil ?Ce moment où le corps, saturé, tire la prise pour sauver l'esprit.Fatigue, irritabilité, douleurs : les signaux sont là, mais on fait taire le messager.Derrière l'épuisement, il y a souvent une vieille loyauté — celle du “tiens bon”, héritée du clan.Jusqu'au jour où tout lâche, pour tout recommencer.

Chaque matin, les astres se glissent dans votre café et dévoilent leur humeur du jour… Bienvenue dans Les Étoilés.Au programme : douze signes, douze ambiances, un zeste d'humour et beaucoup d'intuition. Amour, énergie, relations ou opportunités, on décrypte les vibrations planétaires du moment sans prise de tête — avec un ton léger, piquant et parfois un brin impertinent.Chaque jour, trois signes sont mis à l'honneur : les étoiles du jour. Ceux pour qui les planètes s'alignent avec bienveillance (ou malice…). Pour les autres, pas de panique : les configurations changent vite, et chaque signe a sa carte à jouer.Un horoscope vivant, intuitif, inspiré du ciel mais ancré dans la vraie vie. Parce qu'ici, on ne parle pas de destin figé, mais d'énergie à apprivoiser.

Une séance animée par les résultats trimestriels d'entreprises : Le CAC 40 a terminé la séance de jeudi en légère hausse à 8.226 points, revenant tout près de ses records historiques atteints plus tôt dans la semaine. La saison des résultats trimestriels continue d'animer les marchés. À Paris, Kering s'est distingué avec une progression de plus de 8%, saluée malgré un chiffre d'affaires en baisse, grâce à une nette amélioration de ses ventes. Fnac Darty s'inscrit également dans le vert.En revanche, STMicroelectronics a chuté de 14%, pénalisé par une marge brute en repli, tandis que Dassault Systèmes a reculé de 13% après avoir abaissé ses prévisions de chiffre d'affaires annuel.Aux États-Unis, le shutdown gouvernemental continue de bloquer la publication de plusieurs indicateurs économiques. Les investisseurs se concentrent donc sur les résultats d'entreprises : à ce jour, 87% des sociétés du S&P 500 ayant publié ont dépassé les attentes.Enfin, sur le marché des changes, l'euro est revenu à 1,16 dollar, tandis que le pétrole Brent est remonté à 65,70 dollars, porté par les tensions diplomatiques entre Washington et Moscou.Hébergé par Ausha.

Après avoir signé un nouveau record en séance mardi, l'indice parisien évoluait en baisse hier. Les investisseurs ont dû digérer une nouvelle salve de résultats d'entreprises mais aussi le ton plus prudent du président américain Donald Trump quant à un possible accord commercial avec la Chine.Les baisses des titres L'Oréal et Hermès, troisièmes et deuxièmes plus importantes capitalisations de la Bourse de Paris, ont pesé sur la tendance.Les deux groupes se sont livrés à l'exercice des publications trimestrielles et ont été sanctionnés pour leur croissance organique des ventes légèrement inférieure aux attentes.L'indice parisien progresse désormais d'un peu plus de 11% depuis le début d'année, bien derrière ses homologues allemands ou italien en hausse de plus de 20% sur les indices DAX ou MIB.Les prix du pétrole étaient en hausse pour la deuxième journée consécutive hier, soutenus par l'espoir d'une avancée dans les négociations commerciales entre les États-Unis, la Chine et l'Inde.Le menu financier d'aujourd'hui est une nouvelle fois copieux avec de nombreuses publications de résultats attendues par les investisseurs. Hébergé par Ausha.

How does a star form? How does the universe form? And how can we use every bit of astronomical data to answer those questions? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome astrostatistician Sabrina Berger, all the way from Melbourne, Australia, where she's currently pursuing her PhD. As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing, the new radioastronomy photographs of Callisto, one of the moons of Jupiter, taken by ALMA. Sabrina talks about her own low-frequency radio astronomy research looking for hydrogen in the very early reionization period of the universe when the first galaxies were forming. (Be warned: we dive into the difficulties ionization poses for trying to discern these early processes, including a side trip into quantum mechanics, the hyperfine transition of neutral hydrogen at 21cm depicted on the plaque attached to the Pioneer spacecraft, and even the Cosmic Background Radiation.) You'll also hear how Sabrina is innovatively using GPS satellites to help calibrate large radioastronomy telescope arrays. For our first student question, Derek asks, “I heard that black holes can form right after the Big Bang, before stars do. How is that possible?” Sabrina describes these primordial black holes, and, although none have been confirmed yet, that there have been a number of papers published recently on the subject. In fact, one paper suggesting that the as-yet-undiscovered “Planet 9” could even be one of these primordial black holes. And then, finally, we get to the subject of astrostatistics, Sabrina's area of expertise. She explains that it allows you to harness every piece of information that you're observing in astronomy and to answer questions like “How does a star form?” or “How does the universe form?” You'll hear about huge data sets, the use of artificial intelligence, field level inferences… and the MCMC, or the Markov chain Monte Carlo used in statistics. (If you don't know what that is, you're not alone, and our own resident mathematician Allen helps Sabrina untangle the complexity with a cotton ball analogy that blew Chuck and Sabrina's collective minds!) For our next student question, Wally asks, “Why is redshift one like nine billion years ago, bur redshift two only two billion years before that, and redshift three only one billion years before that?” As Chuck says, “that's a little complicated,” just before he, Allen and Sabrina proceed to explain how we measure universal expansion, the passage of time, and the “stretching” of light. Our next conversation is one of the most controversial we've ever had and revolves around who Sabrina thinks makes the best espresso, Australia, Italy or a “Third Wave Coffee Shop” like we have here in the US. You'll hear about why there's an ISSpresso machine on the ISS – and how the Italian Space Agency invented a way to make an espresso in zero-g! Plus, you'll hear a little about the work-life balance in Australia and how wonderful astronomy down under is. (Check out our Patreon for the story behind the Australian Aboriginal "Emu-in-the-sky" constellation.) If you'd like to know more about Sabrina, you can find her on Twitter and Blue Sky @sabrinastronomy or check out her research on her website.

Sergio Gago, CTO of Cloudera and former Head of AI & Quantum at Moody's is interviewed by Yuval Boger. They discuss a practical, problem-first path to quantum in finance. Sergio contrasts annealers and gate-based systems, emphasizes hybrid workflows for portfolio optimization and Monte Carlo risk, and explores fraud detection and knowledge-graph use cases. Sergio stresses rigorous benchmarking against top-end GPUs/FPGAs, explainability for regulators, and total cost of ownership over lab metrics. They also touch on post-quantum cryptography (offense vs. defense), realistic definitions of “quantum advantage,” and why disciplined pilots—and candid vendor comparisons—matter more than hype, and much more.

Another mindbending podcast.  Jennifer was up in Berkeley last weekend, ran into a concert pianist prodigy (Evan Le) and filmed a little of him playing the piano (which we included in the podcast with his mother's permission.) While Jennifer was visiting this building, she became aware of the architect of the building, and asked questions about her.  Julia Morgan was the first woman architect to graduate from Berkeley and the room Jennifer was in was designed by her. She's famous for designing many buildings - including the Hearst Castle and Marion Davies' home in Santa Monica - and 700 buildings in California.  I knew the building because I had been in it - but didn't know who designed it.  So we invited the architect to come and chat with us.  And she talked about her path and journey - and what it was like for her on the flipside. My father was an architect, and in our conversations with him, he's told us that he hangs out with famous architects from over the years, or is learning from them - and when asked if that was her experience she said "No, I'm hanging out with musicians." When asked to specify she named Jimi Hendrix - who often shows up in our podcasts.  He talked about the "frequency of a building" - which is like math or music - the same thing that he delved in, and she said "his role as a musician was to shift consciousness." Since it was John Lennon's birthday yesterday, and since our first conversation with John included a memory of his playing with Jimi in the afterlife - we invited him to come and make some observations. Indeed, I did stay at Julian's place in Eze, and was awoken by the sound of John saying "Who the f*ck are you?" The sound of a voice startled me - I'd only been sleeping a couple of hours after jamming with Julian in Monte Carlo - and it took me a few seconds to recognize the voice. I didn't mention it to Julian at the time - because it was too weird, and I had zero context for it.  But I do have context for it now.   So Happy Birthday John, and thanks for the lovely thoughts about Paul (and Ringo) who have carried on the Beatles tradition, and how everyone on the flipside gets to participate in those concerts. It's mind bending to consider - oh and one other thing, when asked "how long does it feel like for you to be on the flipside?" and he replied "two minutes."   We once asked Prince a similar question, and his reply was "a comma" - meaning that previous event to the one I was referencing felt like a comma in a sentence to him. So consider that for a moment when thinking about one's loved ones offstage. They don't have the same connection we do to time... but they can converse with us all the same. Enjoy.

In this conversation, Wade Pfau, Alex Murguia and Bill Bengen discuss various aspects of retirement planning, focusing on risk management, asset allocation, and the implications of market conditions on withdrawal rates. Bengen shares insights on adjusting the traditional 4% rule based on current market valuations and inflation, emphasizing the importance of a diversified portfolio and the role of annuities. The discussion also covers the significance of sequence of returns risk and the potential benefits of rising equity glide paths in retirement strategies.   Takeaways A 65% stock allocation is recommended for retirees. Risk management involves adjusting asset allocations based on market conditions. The first 10 years of retirement are crucial for long-term success. Diversification is key to mitigating risks in retirement portfolios. Annuities can play a beneficial role in retirement income planning. Market valuations should influence withdrawal rate strategies. Rising equity glide paths may help manage sequence of returns risk. Monte Carlo simulations can provide insights but have limitations. The 4% rule may need adjustments based on current economic conditions.

However, there is one resource Monaco does possess: The Rock – an impregnable natural fortress jutting into the azure water… Continue reading The Definitive Military History of Monaco and Monte Carlo

Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.Every trader wants a system that not only works but actually beats expectations. That's where Plan M comes in—the strategy built on OVTLYR 4.0 swing signals that's proving to be cleaner, simpler, and far more profitable than anything before it. In this video, we walk through the evolution from Plan A to Plan M, showing how small refinements in exits and position sizing turned a strong plan into a market-beating powerhouse.It started with active signals. The idea was simple: more trades mean more opportunities. But more opportunities don't always mean better results. Backtesting revealed that while active signals created volume, swing signals consistently delivered stronger, more reliable gains. Plan M took those swing signals, layered in improved exits, and produced returns that stunned even the most optimistic expectations.Here's what you'll learn in this video:➡️ Plan A vs. Plan M: Why swing signals dominate active signals and how that shift improved performance by over 200% in just one month.➡️ Cleaner exits: How refined rules—like ATR stop losses, order blocks, and sell signals—make exits sharper and results stronger.➡️ Monte Carlo proof: Stress tests showing Plan M outperforming Plan A across thousands of scenarios, with dramatically better average and worst-case returns.➡️ The 200-day insight: Why signals often work best under the 200-day moving average, catching moves earlier and avoiding lagging entries.➡️ Position sizing rules: How using ATR distance for sizing keeps losses smaller while letting winners run.➡️ The rolling edge: How rolling options reduces risk, locks in profits, and frees up capital for new trades.➡️ Second-chance signals: Why some trades still work even if you miss the first buy signal, with examples from names like Nvidia and Robinhood.➡️ Future expansion: OVTLYR is adding thousands of additional stocks, giving traders more opportunities than ever before to apply Plan M across the market.The results speak for themselves. In head-to-head comparisons, Plan M crushed Plan A—producing average returns in the millions during Monte Carlo simulations while keeping drawdowns contained. Even in worst-case scenarios, Plan M outperformed by wide margins. That's before adding leverage.This isn't about hype. It's about following signals, respecting data, and letting probabilities guide decisions. Plan M has proven that simpler rules, better exits, and disciplined sizing can change everything. And with tools like OVTLYR powering the signals, traders have the confidence that comes from proven, backtested strategies rather than gut feelings or market noise.If you're ready to see why Plan M is becoming the default strategy for serious traders, this breakdown will show you exactly how it works and why it matters. This is about trading smarter, managing risk better, and capturing gains more consistently.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd.

Jimmy and Brett are joined once again by friend and tennis connoisseur Spencer Segura to break down all things US Open after attending the final weekend. Carlos Alcaraz has been amazing since Monte Carlo and continued his hot play in Flushing the past two weeks. He has now won 7 or the last 8 matches against Sinner and won his 6th major at just 22 years old. Djokovic is still the third best player in the world, he just can't beat Sinner and Alcaraz. Sabalenka was on a mission to win a slam after coming so close in the first 3 majors of the year. Beating 2 straight Americans to do so. Amanda Anisimova bounced back after her heartbreaking loss at Wimbledon. She has the game to win a major, and now has the experience to build on. shopify.com/connors⁠⁠⁠⁠ for your $1 per month trial period  Follow us on - Twitter - @AdvConnors @JimmyConnors @Brett_Connors Instagram - @AdvConnors @Bretterz @GolddoodIsabella Facebook - Jimmy Connors official Facebook page Leave your questions/topics/or links to stories you want us to talk about next week on Jimmy's official Facebook page.

What if choosing your asset allocation was as personal as your life story—and as consequential as your retirement? In this episode, we are joined by PWL Capital's Louai Bibi and Ben Wilson for a deep dive into how advisors guide clients through the most important portfolio decision they'll ever make. Louai walks us through the research, psychology, and planning frameworks behind determining the right stock/bond mix, while Ben shares real-world insights from client cases where risk tolerance, pensions, and life events shifted the balance. We explore how Monte Carlo simulations stress-test financial plans, why spouses often disagree on risk, and how pensions act as “bond-like assets” in the bigger picture. Ben Wilson also takes us behind the scenes of PWL's post-OneDigital acquisition journey, revealing why advisors are drawn to join the firm, how succession planning shapes their choices, and why a unified evidence-based philosophy matters in Canada's wealth management landscape. The episode wraps with a fascinating look at surprising stock return outliers—like Build-A-Bear outperforming Nvidia—and what that teaches us about the futility of stock-picking versus the power of diversification. Key Points From This Episode:   (0:01:00) Introducing PWL's Louai Bibi and Ben Wilson—today's topics: asset allocation, advisor succession, and surprising stock return data. (0:03:35) Louai explains the asset allocation decision: balancing stocks vs. bonds and why it's the biggest choice investors make. (0:05:12) Why asset allocation matters: inflation erodes purchasing power, and stocks/bonds help investors keep up or outpace it. (0:06:50) Historical lessons: $1 invested since 1970—outcomes for bonds, balanced portfolios, and 100% equities. (0:08:35) The risks of downturns: 2008 as a case study in how stocks vs. bonds shape losses and recovery times. (0:11:39) Risk tolerance questionnaires: how PWL uses surveys to gauge willingness vs. capacity to take risk.

(0:20:08) Real client cases: retirees discovering they don't need as much stock exposure, or elderly clients increasing equity later in life. (0:22:47) How often do clients change asset allocations? Rarely—except for life events like retirement. (0:27:10) Why Monte Carlo simulations are essential for stress-testing financial plans beyond straight-line projections. (0:30:20) PWL's “asset allocation email”: summarizing risks, pensions, debt, emergency funds, and personalized tradeoffs. (0:34:02) Pensions as “bond-like assets”—how they increase ability but decrease need to take risk. (0:37:11) Closing thoughts from Louai: think in dollar terms, investing is a marathon, and build confidence gradually. (0:39:32) Education shifts clients' choices: some reduce risk after learning the realities of volatility, others increase equity exposure with context. (0:43:10) Advisor “fixed effects”: research shows the advisor's own perspective strongly shapes client allocations. (0:45:39) Transition to Ben Wilson: what motivates advisors to join PWL post-OneDigital acquisition.

(1:06:33) Celestica's role in DFA funds and how it helped them keep pace with Shopify-driven indexes. (1:09:25) Why broad diversification captures unexpected winners (Build-A-Bear included) without speculation.
