Podcasts about Niels

Gold is ripping, but it's not about inflation. It's about trust - or the slow erosion of it. Mark Rzepczynski returns to map out the shifting terrain as central banks quietly step away from sovereign debt and build reserves in metal, not paper. Niels presses on what this says about safe assets, liquidity, and the narratives we've long taken for granted. They unpack the rise of short-term options, the distortive power of retail flow, and the fragility buried inside modern plumbing. And as trend followers chase edge in crowded markets, Mark offers a glimpse into what comes next: networks, feedback loops, and systems that learn - until they break.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Mark on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:01:34 - What has been on our radar recently?05:43 - Is this time different for gold?14:13 - Just a gold story?16:38 - Should we redefine the definition of safe assets?19:45 - The Fed has to change26:08 - An overbearing uncertainty30:25 - Our thoughts on meme stocks35:30 - Not every innovations are good39:02 - How narratives impact how products are sold46:21 - Industry performance update49:39 - Alternative vs traditional assets01:00:43 - Every CTA is a short term trader01:05:59 - The power of seeing the connection between markets01:14:32 - What is up for next week?Copyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights...

Fotografie kan je redding zijn – maar ook je valkuil. In deze aflevering praten je fotografievrienden Niels en Michiel over balans: hoe hou je het leuk? Wanneer voel je flow, en wanneer ga je op routine? Of erger nog: wanneer voelt het als moeten in plaats van willen?We hebben het over passie versus verplichting, over ritme vinden en pauzes nemen. Over hoe samen fotograferen je kan opladen, en hoe je voorkomt dat iets wat ooit je uitlaatklep was, verandert in sleur. Want zelfs creativiteit heeft onderhoud nodig.

De tijdritten waren al een mooie aanzet, maar dé apotheose van de WK in Rwanda worden toch de wegritten bij de vrouwen en mannen, die respectievelijk zaterdag en zondag op de planning staan. Maakt Tadej Pogacar al halverwege de wedstrijd korte metten met de tegenstand, of zijn er mannen die kunnen verrassen? En kan de Nederlandse vrouwenploeg de zaak nog eens winnend afsluiten?

No risk with the 30-day money-back guaranteeOnder de leiding van Laurens ten Dam zullen veel ogen op de Nederlandse dames gericht zijn. Terecht, volgens onze verslaggevers Nick Doup, Julian Dubbeld en Niels Bastiaens, die ook de andere kanshebbers opnoemen. Volgens Julian wordt de Franse Tourwinnares Pauline Ferrand-Prévot onterecht als de topfavoriete beschouwd, terwijl Niels rotsvast gelooft in de kansen van Demi Vollering. Voor de Belgen, die het zonder uittredend winnares Lotte Kopecky doen, én voor Kim Le Court is er minder goed nieuws.Voorafgaand aan de mannenkoers is er veel te doen om Mount Kigali, de langste klim in de wedstrijd die op 100 kilometer van de aankomst de wedstrijd hoogstwaarschijnlijk in een eerste plooi legt. Bij een aanval van Tadej Pogacar of Remco Evenepoel, de twee topfavorieten, zijn er niet al te veel renners die volgens onze mannen kunnen volgen. "Elke andere ploeg dan België of Slovenië moet anticiperen", vindt Julian. "Anders zien we in de laatste 100 kilometer misschien geen oranje meer in de finale", stelt Niels.Onze mannen zien wel één Nederlander in een kansrijke positie belanden. Verder analyseren ze de verzwakte Belgische ploeg, die we volgens Niels zeker geen B-team mogen noemen, en schatten ze de selecties van Slovenië en enkele outsiders in. "De Franse ploeg is in de breedte misschien wel de sterkste", vinden de verslaggevers, die ook nog andere kanshebbers voor een medaille zien. Dat en nog veel meer in de nieuwste editie van de WielerFlits Podcast!

Unconscious bias remains one of the most underestimated risks in recruiting and leadership. From names, photos, and accents to education, hobbies, or postcodes—decisions are often shaped by hidden assumptions rather than objective criteria. The result? Costly mis-hires, damaged employer brands, and leadership teams that replicate their own blind spots instead of building true diversity and strength. In this episode, Niels Brabandt, Founder of NB Networks and international leadership expert, analyses how unconscious bias infiltrates decision-making, why it weakens business performance, and what leaders must do to overcome it. Drawing on real cases, research insights, and decades of executive training experience, he explains why awareness and professional training are critical for sustainable leadership. This episode offers concrete, strategic insights for executives, HR leaders, and decision makers who want to attract the right talent, strengthen their organisations, and avoid the reputational damage of biased practices.

Unbewusste Voreingenommenheit (Unconscious Bias) beeinflusst Recruiting- und Führungsentscheidungen stärker, als vielen bewusst ist. Von Namen, Fotos und Adressen über Ausbildungswege bis hin zu Hobbys oder Postleitzahlen – scheinbar nebensächliche Faktoren entscheiden oft über Karrierewege. Das Ergebnis: Fehlbesetzungen, schwächere Teams, geringere Innovationskraft und massiver Reputationsschaden. In dieser Episode analysiert Niels Brabandt, Gründer und Inhaber von NB Networks sowie international anerkannter Leadership-Experte, wie Bias im Recruiting und in der Führung wirkt – und warum er zu den größten Risiken moderner Unternehmen zählt. Mit wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen, Praxisbeispielen und klaren Handlungsempfehlungen zeigt er, wie Unternehmen bewusster, diverser und damit erfolgreicher werden können. Diese Folge liefert entscheidende Impulse für Executives, HR-Verantwortliche und Führungskräfte, die Recruiting und Leadership auf ein neues Niveau heben und die Zukunftsfähigkeit ihrer Organisation sichern wollen.

Je kent het wel. Dat ene beeld waar je zó aan gehecht bent… maar dat gewoon niet werkt in de serie. Of dat net niet past bij het verhaal dat je wil vertellen. Kill your darlings – het klinkt wreed, en dat is het ook. In deze aflevering praten je fotografievrienden Niels en Michiel over selecteren: misschien wel het moeilijkste onderdeel van fotograaf zijn.Welke foto's laat je zien? Voor wie zijn ze bedoeld? En hoe bepaal je wat blijft en wat sneuvelt? We bespreken onze eigen worstelingen met fotoselectie, het verschil tussen foto's voor Instagram, portfolio's of een tentoonstelling, en waarom je soms juist je lievelingsfoto moet schrappen om sterker te worden.

Rob Carver is back from summer break for a conversation that moves between past and present through the lens of lived experience. Starting with the anniversary of Lehman's collapse, Rob and Niels unpack why strong performance often coexists with poor investor outcomes - and how timing, not strategy, remains the silent killer. They question the recent push into trend by asset management giants, weigh whether CTA underperformance marks a structural shift or a familiar cycle, and examine what the data can and can't tell us when conviction fades. If there's a theme this week, it's simple: knowing what works is not the same as using it well.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Rob on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 01:14 - What has been on our radar recently?12:09 - Industry performance update19:23 - Q1, John: What are your recommendations for adapting a continuous forecast-based position sizing for a cash-only portfolio?23:15 - Q2, Absolute: Is short/long symmetry optimal for a strategy in which the price of the traded instruments is measured in units (fiat currencies) that are inflated (devalued)?30:19 - Q3, Lin: Got any ideas for trading a crypto portfolio?32:04 - Why investors are losing money on 42% gain ETFs39:50 - The difference between percentage return and cash return43:24 - Debunking the persistent score card46:19 - How the world has changed for CTAsCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights...

Affiliate marketing is far from dead. In fact, it's evolving faster than ever. While many have written it off as an outdated model, the smartest affiliates are quietly cashing in by adapting to shifts in algorithms, AI, and consumer behavior. In this week's podcast, Greg sits down with Niels Zee, affiliate entrepreneur, author, and co-founder of Afframp. Niels breaks down what's working in 2025 and how top affiliates continue to rack up big wins. Niels shares how the Google Helpful Content Update completely reshaped his entrepreneurial journey, pushing him to rethink strategies and embrace adaptability. He reveals why pivoting and staying flexible are the real superpowers for affiliates, and how to scale faster with tactics like negotiating above-market commission rates and using Google Ads to supercharge campaigns. We also dive into how to build long-term sustainability instead of chasing short-term wins, and how to evaluate offers that are actually worth promoting.

Affiliate marketing is far from dead. In fact, it's evolving faster than ever. While many have written it off as an outdated model, the smartest affiliates are quietly cashing in by adapting to shifts in algorithms, AI, and consumer behavior. In this week's podcast, Greg sits down with Niels Zee, affiliate entrepreneur, author, and founder of Afframp. Niels breaks down what's working in 2025 and how top affiliates continue to rack up big wins. Niels shares how the Google Helpful Content Update completely reshaped his entrepreneurial journey, pushing him to rethink strategies and embrace adaptability. He reveals why pivoting and staying flexible are the real superpowers for affiliates, and how to scale faster with tactics like negotiating above-market commission rates and using Google Ads to supercharge campaigns. We also dive into how to build long-term sustainability instead of chasing short-term wins, and how to evaluate offers that are actually worth promoting.

Elke maand verschijnt er wel weer een “beste straatcamera ooit”. Compact, stil, onopvallend – en natuurlijk ‘perfect' voor op straat. Maar bestaat die perfecte straatcamera eigenlijk wel? In deze aflevering praten je fotografievrienden Niels en Michiel over de grote cameramythe. Want laten we eerlijk zijn: het gaat niet om de specs, maar om hoe jij kijkt. En hoe je beweegt. En hoeveel lef je hebt.We hebben het over de camera's die we zelf gebruiken, hoe je techniek je stijl beïnvloedt, en waarom de beste camera vaak gewoon degene is die je bij je hebt. Of dat nu een Ricoh, Fuji, Leica of iPhone is. Want of je nou werkt aan een project als Gezichten van Gouda, of gewoon op zaterdag door je eigen wijk loopt – het beeld zit in jou, niet in je camera.

Katy Kaminski returns to explore why results in trend following rarely look alike, even when the rules sound the same. Using fresh research from Man Group and Quantica, she and Niels trace the fingerprints of design choices: the pace of signals, how portfolios tilt, whether to add carry, and the impact of alternative markets. Along the way they connect these differences to today's landscape, from the Fed's looming decision to Europe's bond jitters, from gas and power's outsized role in recent Alternative CTA returns to the risks of crowding. It's a clear-eyed discussion about how systematic strategies evolve - and why dispersion matters.Get Your FREE Copy of the latest Research Paper from DUNN Capital.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Katy on LinkedIn.Episode TimeStamps:01:12 - What has caught our attention recently?06:44 - Industry performance update12:01 - How different can managers really be in the trend following space?22:30 - Is Andrew Beer onto something about the sharpe ratio of trend indices?24:26 - Why Katy and Alex are obsessed with return dispersion30:34 - What drives dispersion the most?32:41 - Designing a trend following benchmark35:46 - Quantifying turbulence in CTAs39:46 - The importance of simplicity as a CTA42:30...

“It goes without saying that we want to go for at least a medal and maybe even the gold medal [at the World Championships]. We don't really speak about that; it's just about being at my best level in the final. I would call that our goal. Whatever result is connected to that depends on so many factors and that's why we don't really speak about, ‘We want to be first there,' but more about the whole process.”Every so often, a young runner bursts onto the scene not just with talent, but with a presence that makes you believe you're watching the next big star take shape in real time. Niels Laros is that runner right now. At just 20 years old, the Dutch phenom has gone from a precocious prospect to Diamond League champion and now even being the name on everyone's lips as the favorite for the World Championships in the 1500m in Tokyo.He's rattling off consistent victories this summer, he put together a historic 800m and 5000m double at the European U23 Championships, he had an epic Bowerman mile victory over Yared Nuguse that we haven't forgotten, and most recently, a Diamond League title in Zurich where he unleashed yet another sizzling final 100m in 12.5 seconds to clock a 3:29.20 – a Dutch national record and personal best.Again and again, Laros has shown the defining quality of today's 1500m champions: the ability to close off a fast pace. His final 100m stacks up against anything that we've seen from Josh Kerr or Cole Hocker that they've produced in their gold medal runs.But Laros's story isn't just about times and trophies; it's about timing and arriving in peak form as the global landscape in the 1500m shifts. With Jakob Ingebrigtsen sidelined by injury and his rivals Cole Hocker and Josh Kerr searching for their best in 2025, Laros has positioned himself right now as the man to beat. We talk about his rise, the confidence that comes with winning big races, and what it means to carry the weight of expectations heading into Tokyo.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠Guest: Niels Laros | @niels.laros on Instagram Produced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠Mentioned in this episode…- Paris Olympics men's 1500m final- Zurich Diamond League men's 1500m- Brussels Diamond League men's 1500m- Prefontaine Classic Bowerman Mile____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSNEW BALANCE: The FuelCell Rebel v5 was built to feel fast—and look the part.

We zijn er weer! Na een zomer vol specials, fotofairs en vakantiekaartjes is dit de eerste echte aflevering van een nieuw podcastseizoen. Je fotografievrienden Niels en Michiel praten bij: over hun zomer, hun camera's, hun inspiratie, en natuurlijk over of er nog wat moois op de geheugenkaart is beland.En ja hoor – Niels heeft iets nieuws in z'n handen: de Ricoh GR4. Als ambassadeur kreeg hij ‘m al even op proef en deelt z'n eerste indrukken. Is het een gamechanger? Een nichecamera? Of gewoon weer een GR, maar dan net even scherper? Ondertussen blikken we terug op de zomerspecials én kijken we vooruit naar alles wat weer komen gaat.

As trend following begins to reassert itself, Niels and Nick Baltas dig beneath the surface of recent CTA performance - where the signals are working, why fixed income remains unresolved, and how speed is revealing deeper structural divides. But this episode goes beyond attribution. What if the industry has mistaken correlation shifts for changes in signal speed? What if the very idea of a “trend beta” is flawed? And what if compounding durable returns isn't about chasing performance, but protecting against path? This is a conversation about design over style, clarity over convention, and the quiet decisions that shape real outcomes.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Nick on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:00:50 - Catching up05:02 - Industry performance update13:18 - How the speed of trend following strategies is changing24:13 - Is there a way to define speed differently?32:19 - Do we have the right definition of a trend index?38:20 - Brainstorming ideas on how to improve trend following benchmarks43:50 - The best car needs the best brakes49:26 - Baltas framework for enhancing trend following performanceCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the...

Story Transcript:Da: Det var en stille morgen på kostskolen, hvor det svale sensommervind legede med de første gyldne blade.En: It was a quiet morning at the boarding school, where the cool late summer breeze played with the first golden leaves.Da: Lars gik langs den grusbelagte sti mod skolens gamle teaterbygning.En: Lars walked along the gravel path towards the school's old theater building.Da: Den røde murstensbygning stod stolt mellem de smukke træer, hvis blade så småt begyndte at ændre farver.En: The red brick building stood proudly among the beautiful trees, whose leaves were slowly beginning to change colors.Da: Lars havde altid været en af de stille elever.En: Lars had always been one of the quiet students.Da: Hans talent for skuespil var ukendt for de fleste, da han gemte sig i kulissen til de årlige efterårsforestillinger.En: His talent for acting was unknown to most, as he hid in the wings during the annual autumn performances.Da: Men i år var noget anderledes.En: But this year was different.Da: Lars ønskede mere.En: Lars wanted more.Da: Han ville bryde ud af sin usynlige rolle og spille en større del i stykket.En: He wanted to break out of his invisible role and play a larger part in the play.Da: Sofie, skolens entusiastiske teaterinstruktør, havde lagt vægt på, at årets forestilling skulle blive noget helt særligt.En: Sofie, the school's enthusiastic theater director, had emphasized that this year's performance should be something truly special.Da: Hendes drømme om en teaterkarriere drev hende, og hun pressede eleverne for at opnå perfektion.En: Her dreams of a theater career drove her, and she pushed the students to achieve perfection.Da: "Vi skal overraske publikum i år," sagde hun ofte, mens hun planlagde scenerne med stor omhu.En: "We must surprise the audience this year," she often said while planning the scenes with great care.Da: Niels, skolens selvsikre stjerne, havde brugt de sidste mange år i centrum af scenen.En: Niels, the school's confident star, had spent the last many years in the center of the stage.Da: Han havde altid glitrende roller, men i år stod han over for en svær karakter.En: He always had dazzling roles, but this year he faced a challenging character.Da: Det var en ny udfordring for ham.En: It was a new challenge for him.Da: Trods hans selvsikkerhed var arbejdet denne gang mere krævende.En: Despite his confidence, the work was more demanding this time.Da: En dag, da Lars trådte ind i teatersalen, besluttede han sig for at forsøge sig med en større rolle.En: One day, as Lars stepped into the theater hall, he decided to try for a larger role.Da: Nervøsiteten knugede hans mave, da han gik op til Sofie.En: Nervousness tightened his stomach as he approached Sofie.Da: "Jeg vil gerne prøve en større rolle," sagde han stille, usikker på hendes reaktion.En: "I would like to try a larger role," he said quietly, unsure of her reaction.Da: Sofie blev overrasket, men så en mulighed.En: Sofie was surprised but saw an opportunity.Da: "Selvfølgelig, Lars.En: "Of course, Lars.Da: Lad os se, hvad du kan," svarede hun med et smil.En: Let's see what you can do," she replied with a smile.Da: Lars' første prøver var præget af hans tilbageholdenhed, og han kunne mærke Niels' nærvær som en konstant påmindelse om, hvor meget han manglede selvtillid.En: Lars' first rehearsals were marked by his reticence, and he could feel Niels' presence as a constant reminder of how much he lacked confidence.Da: Alligevel gav Niels ham nogle råd.En: Yet, Niels gave him some advice.Da: "Vær dig selv på scenen.En: "Be yourself on stage.Da: Karakteren kommer fra dig," sagde Niels opmuntrende.En: The character comes from you," Niels said encouragingly.Da: Da dagen for generalprøven kom, føltes kulissen overvældende for Lars.En: When the day of the dress rehearsal came, the set felt overwhelming for Lars.Da: På scenen frøs han i lyset, mens alle ventede.En: On stage, he froze in the lights while everyone waited.Da: Sofie stod ved siden af scenen og gav ham et kærligt nik.En: Sofie stood beside the stage and gave him a loving nod.Da: "Improvisér, Lars.En: "Improvise, Lars.Da: Du kan det," sagde hun.En: You can do it," she said.Da: Lige som Lars troede, han ville tabe modet, trådte Niels ind på scenen.En: Just as Lars thought he would lose courage, Niels stepped onto the stage.Da: Sammen imponerede de alle med en fælles improvisation.En: Together, they impressed everyone with a joint improvisation.Da: Premieren gik over al forventning.En: The premiere exceeded all expectations.Da: Publikummet klappede begejstret, og Lars følte en ny selvtillid vokse i sig.En: The audience applauded enthusiastically, and Lars felt a new confidence growing within him.Da: Han havde gjort det.En: He had done it.Da: Efter forestillingen sagde Sofie til Lars, "Du gjorde det fantastisk.En: After the performance, Sofie said to Lars, "You did fantastic.Da: Tak fordi du turde."En: Thank you for daring."Da: Niels klappede ham på skuldrene, "Jeg vidste, du kunne."En: Niels patted him on the shoulder, "I knew you could."Da: Den årlige efterårsforestilling havde ændret mere end bare et skuespil.En: The annual autumn performance had changed more than just a play.Da: Lars blev nu set på med respekt, og han følte sig åben for nye udfordringer.En: Lars was now looked upon with respect, and he felt open to new challenges.Da: Sofie lærte at værdsætte talent og vilje over perfektion.En: Sofie learned to appreciate talent and will over perfection.Da: Kostskolens gamle

personal development, while the leaves outside quietly rustled with autumn.

Binnen een paar uur ging het van gerucht naar geschiedenis. Het bedrijf achter Douwe Egberts en Pickwick vind je binnenkort niet meer in Amsterdam, maar in New York. JDE Peet's wordt overgenomen door het bedrijf achter Dr Pepper en 7Up. Dat deed een bod van 18 miljard dollar, en dat bleek onweerstaanbaar. Moeten we er treurig om zijn? En wie is de volgende die het Damrak laat voor wat 't is? Dat hoor je in deze aflevering. En dan hebben we het ook over Intel. Het is officieel: de Amerikaanse regering bezit tien procent van het bedrijf. In ruil daarvoor krijgt het de al eerder beloofde subsidie van 9,5 miljard dollar. Maar een saillant detail is dat de chipmaker zelf laat doorschemeren dat het die deal tegen heug en meug gesloten heeft. Het gaat ook nog - alweer - over AI. Apple geeft soort van toe dat het de zaken niet op orde heeft, want het is zelfs bereid om de AI van Google in te kopen om daar Siri eindelijk eens een beetje beter mee te maken. En Meta krijgt het ook niet voor elkaar om de beste te zijn, en koopt het daarom bij startup Midjourney. En er was meer te doen: Een koersval van het Deense Ørsted, nadat de Amerikaanse overheid een einde maakt van een windpark voor de kust van Rhode Island dat al bijna af was. Italiaanse zakenbank UniCredit kruipt weer een beetje dichterbij de overname van Duitse concurrent Commerzbank. Netflix scoort voor het eerst een échte bioscoophit. En je hoort over de DJ-ambities van Niels Koerts. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Richard Brennan joins Niels for a conversation that redefines how trend following is understood. Behind the shared language lie four distinct archetypes - each built around a different purpose. Richard walks through them with clarity, then unpacks the trade-offs: static sizing vs. vol targeting, symmetry vs. asymmetry, speed vs. patience. A real-world portfolio test drives the point home... some strategies don't just prefer diversification, they depend on it. This episode is about design, but more than that, it's about alignment. Because in a field crowded with performance metrics, the most important question often goes unasked: what exactly is this built to do?-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Rich on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:01:58 - ChatGPT5 is on fire06:04 - The AI revolution could be the end of humanity14:23 - Industry performance update19:19 - An overview of what topics this episode will cover21:23 - The decisions that really matter in trend following27:10 - The 4 archetypes of trend following34:05 - Its not about facts, its about objectives40:09 - 1st debate: Diversification vs. concentration48:52 - 2nd debate: Absolute momentum vs. cross-sectional momentum50:21 - 3rd debate: Volatility targeting vs static small bits54:02 - What trend followers sometimes get wrong about volatility and position sizing57:48 - 4th debate: Symmetry vs asymmetry01:02:00 -...

When official data starts serving politics, markets lose their anchor. Alan Dunne and Niels examine the quiet shift unfolding as the U.S. edges closer to emerging market behavior - firing statisticians, sidelining inconvenient numbers, and pressuring the Fed ahead of a consequential leadership reshuffle. With labor supply falling, growth stalling, and tariffs acting as stealth taxes, the Fed's playbook no longer fits the moment. Behind the scenes, hedge fund power brokers position themselves to shape what comes next. Plus, an unvarnished look at trend following's drawdown, the lazy critiques making the rounds, and why so many allocators still miss the point.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:01:32 - What has caught our attention recently?08:53 - Dunne's global macro overview13:31 - Is our understanding of growth and GDP outdated?17:52 - The Fed is under threat from multiple angles21:38 - Dunne's impression of Kevin Warsh as a candidate for Fed chairman26:43 - An odd juxtaposition with hedge fund titans' influences on the Fed32:35 - Industry performance update37:30 - Our takeaways from The Wall Street Journal's article on Trend Following43:35 - Why should investors even consider managed futures in the first place?45:40 - Has Dunne ever been on the verge of cutting trend?52:08 - Do long term investors really need diversifiers?Copyright © 2024 – CMC AG – All...

What happens when an overlooked asset becomes essential? Artem Milinchuk returns to share how farmland, long seen as niche... is quietly stepping into the center of long-term portfolios. He and Niels discuss what's changed since 2020: rising inflation, tighter capital, a demographic handoff reshaping land ownership, and how tech is altering both the economics and culture of agriculture. This isn't about chasing yield. It's about owning what endures. From almonds to avocados, tariffs to treasuries, and legacy to liquidity, this episode offers a clear-eyed look at an asset class rooted in necessity, and poised for relevance.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Artem on X.Check out these resources about farmland investingEpisode Timestamps:02:24 - A recap on our previous conversation06:22 - What has changed about their strategy since our last conversation (in 2020)?10:28 - How does farmland investing actually generate income?12:32 - How does farmland investing work and operate?15:28 - Geopolitical volatility - How FarmTogether deals with tariffs19:00 - How different types of crops carries different types of risk23:22 - A deep dive into the volatility behind farmland investing27:40 - What is a fair level of volatility to expect from farmland investing?30:49 - The tech side of agriculture - where are we heading?33:58 - Major changes in...
