President Trump and Elon Musk are in a very public clash on social media, an explosive end to a bromance that began on the President's campaign trail. The allegations, the X posts, and what's next–plus, what Congress and the reconciliation bill have to do with the fight. Musk targeted House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) in some of his latest social media posts, but Speaker Johnson tells us, “it doesn't need to be personal.” He explains the GOP rifts over addressing the national deficit. U.S. hiring in May slowed, but not as much as economists expected. CNBC's Mike Santoli, Steve Liesman, and Rick Santelli join former CBO Director Doug Holtz-Eakin, Nuveen's Saira Malik, and former Treasury official Kitty Richards to discuss the report and what the numbers tell us about the country's economic trajectory.  Speaker Mike Johnson - 16:13Jobs Panel - 34:10 In this episode:Mike Johnson, @SpeakerJohnsonSteve Liesman, @steveliesmanMike Santoli, @michaelsantoliBecky Quick, @BeckyQuickJoe Kernen, @JoeSquawkKatie Kramer, @Kramer_Katie

Jack Janasiewicz, senior vice president and portfolio strategist at Natixis Investment Managers, says the market is in the middle of "one big range trade, and we're probably a lot closer to being at the top of the range rather than the bottom," which means there is more likely room to move down from here rather than to post big gains. Janasiewicz says the the slowing economy needs more time to work through the hard data, which will take time, and will likely lead to a volatile market within the current range. Janasiewicz says the market must also deal with short-term concerns over the weakening dollar, but says he think those worries are overblown when it comes to their long-term impact; like most analysts right now, he likes gold as a dollar diversifier to help ride out the issues. Brian Griggs, head of portfolio strategy and solutions at Nuveen, says that investors have long had too much dependence on large-cap domestic stocks and an over-reliance on duration in fixed-income allocations, which is leading to painful portfolio moves caused by today's stressed stock and bond markets. He talks about making small-but-appropriate portfolio tweaks to lower portfolio volatility and diversify portfolios to improve their investment return and comfort level. Plus we revisit a recent question that Chuck answered from a listener who must decide which investments they will sell in order to raise some cash to pay for one-time additional expenses.

Brian Griggs, head of portfolio strategy and solutions at Nuveen, says that investors have long had too much dependence on large-cap domestic stocks and an over-reliance on duration in fixed-income allocations, and he says that investors should address those pain points today to address macro-sensitivity caused by today's headlines. Using Nuveen's Nsights anaytical tool — a proprietary system that examines how portfolio changes impact future portfolio performance — Griggs says that investors want to address their portfolio problems now, including holding too much cash, to make portfolios better prepared to ride out the bumpy times ahead.

In this episode of the Rainmaker Podcast, host Gui Costin sits down with Daniel Noonan, Executive Vice President and Head of Wealth Management Consulting at Cohen & Steers, to explore what it takes to lead and scale a top-tier distribution team in today's evolving investment landscape. With more than two decades of experience at firms like Nuveen, PIMCO, and State Street Global Advisors, Daniel brings a thoughtful, measured approach to sales strategy, team leadership, and client engagement.Daniel offers an inside look at how Cohen & Steers is expanding beyond its core REIT franchise into private real estate, retirement solutions, and most recently, active ETFs. With a 50-person U.S. wealth distribution team, the firm is structured to stay agile while maintaining deep relationships across channels including RIAs, wirehouses, independent broker-dealers, and private banks.A central theme in the conversation is intentional sales process. Daniel emphasizes the importance of identifying the right advisor profile—those who embrace active management, endowment-style portfolio construction, and value in real assets. The firm leverages CRM technology, specifically Salesforce, as a “force multiplier,” empowering the sales team with data, segmentation, and efficiency to spend more time with high-potential clients. He stresses that success comes from combining the “art” of client engagement with the “science” of targeting and tracking.Daniel also discusses the challenges and opportunities of new client acquisition, particularly in the fast-growing but complex RIA channel. He advocates for a consultative, business-minded approach, focused less on product pushing and more on providing value—whether that's market insight, operational advice, or branding strategy.On leadership, Daniel defines his style as collaborative, present, and servant-oriented. He believes in staying close to the business and investing time with his team to remove roadblocks and reinforce shared goals. He encourages open communication across levels, structured reporting, and measurable goals that prioritize effort and process over uncontrollable outcomes.For young professionals, his advice is to be a “student of the game”—stay curious, work hard, and differentiate yourself through depth and breadth of knowledge. His biggest challenge today? Focus. With multiple initiatives underway, Daniel's priority is maintaining clarity on what matters most and building infrastructure to support that focus. This episode is a masterclass in strategic sales leadership and thoughtful organizational growth.Tired of chasing outdated leads?

The show wraps up interviews taped at FutureProof Citywide in Miami today, with Joe Terranova, chief market strategist at Virtus Investment Partners noting that the Trump Administration is not disturbed with the recent price action on the stock market, because they know that the economy must cool off to get lower interest rates and energy prices. Moreover, he notes that a prolonged tariff battle will impact earnings growth, which will be the key determinant of what the market can achieve this year. Tony Rodriguez, head of fixed income strategy at Nuveen, expects the Federal Reserve to make two interest-rate cuts this year and talks about the asset classes that will benefit the most from them. Barry Martin — the manager of Shelton Equity Income — discusses where investors can find strong income now, using options as an overlay to goose returns. The show also features interviews with Laura Lutton, global head of manager research at Morningstar, and Brad Smithy, head of wealth management at Elevation Point.

Tony Rodriguez, head of fixed income strategy at Nuveen, expects the Federal Reserve to make two interest-rate cuts this year — he calls them "recalibration cuts," made to stabilize the economy but not in response to a hard landing — which will boost floating-rate assets like leveraged loans, collateralized loan obligations and more. Speaking at FutureProof Citywide in Miami Beach, Rodriguez said the Treasury market is over-valued right now, but that the municipal bond market is the most attractive of long-duration assets, which are particularly good looking considering closed-end fud discounts in the muni space.

This episode is sponsored by Nuveen and Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners The state of renewable energy is a series of contradictions. On the one hand, solar panels are cheaper, but they may not stay that way with the threat of tariffs from the incoming Trump Administration. Distributed energy and behind-the-meter power generation are promising, but there are persistent structural obstacles, especially around microgrids. Meanwhile, AI projects require more and more energy while so many grids are already struggling to meet current needs.   So what does this mean for energy investors today? Will the Trump Administration curb progress on renewables in favour of fossil fuels, or will energy demands boost every alternative available? Where are the opportunities worth pursuing and what technologies are living up to their promise? In this episode, we'll discuss these questions and more with Don Dimitrievich, the senior managing director and portfolio manager for energy infrastructure credit at Nuveen, and David Scaysbrook, a co-founder and managing partner of Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners. This episode first appeared on The Infrastructure Investor Podcast on 9 January 2025

This episode is sponsored by Nuveen and Igneo Infrastructure Partners With the American electorate recently handing the White House back to Donald Trump, it seems like an opportune time to unpack what it could all mean for the infrastructure asset class – in particular, the US commitment to renewables and the energy transition. Trump is, after all, the man who previously removed the world's largest economy from the Paris Climate Accord and has since sounded less than supportive of President Biden's initiatives to stimulate the economy and create jobs through a series of infra-led federal legislation. So, is the Inflation Reduction Act in danger of being repealed? Does global capital have cause to be jittery? Or is the case for renewables infrastructure now simply too strong for even a sceptical Trump-led administration to deny. Helping us to address these questions and concerns are John Ma, a partner and co-head of Igneo Infrastructure Partners' North America team, and Don Dimitrievich, the senior managing director and portfolio manager for energy infrastructure credit at Nuveen.

Do you ever over order? This year, as is the case every year we were bursting at the seams with guests and talent here at Fiftyfaces Productions and were delighted to produce a bonus series featuring 8 inspiring guests at the end of 2024. We hope you can take some time over the break to listen back to some big themes – neurodivergence and the workforce, system change, moonshots and deep dives - all delivered in bite size chunks. From an asset management president who started out in fashion and used that to put the client at the heart to a stewardship expert who pursued his moon shot, each story is unique and fascinating. We hear from the CEO of the NZ Super Fund about the philosophy that guided him towards a total portfolio approach at the 77 Billion NZ fund and an expert on system change on the challenge and opportunity that it presents. We speak with an economist who translates the volatility of markets into a professional context and an investment consultant who defied expectations to forge a stellar career despite losing his site at the age of 7. Returning to the theme of neurodivergence in the workforce we speak with the founder of a new website for neurodivergent individuals and we end with the compelling tale of an allocator who learned how to spot talented investors and is using her position now to fuel their growth.The Bonus series features: Lindsey Stewart, Raudline Etienne, Matt Whineray, Carol Geremia, Steve Foresti, Frank Dixon and Tiffany Wilding as well as special guest Veena Aiyer.  So take some time to listen back to our 58 podcasts of 2024, send us your comments, feedback and ideas for new guests, and if you can, please support us on Patreon.  Thank you to Apollo, Resolute Investment Management, Alvine Capital, PIMCO, GCM Grosvenor, Nuveen, JP Morgan Chase, Ninety One, Eagle Point, Ruffer, With Intelligence, Longview Productions and all of our supporters over the course of 2024

Despite headlines that have dominated the news stating concerns about the stock market and its ability to keep thriving under a new political administration, Mick Heyman, founder of Heyman Investment Counseling, doesn't see the warning signs of a terrible market. "Close your eyes, it's fear of heights, and just let the long-term trend continue on," Heyman said. He is not the only one who sees little trouble evident on the horizon, as Vuk Vuković, chief investment officer at Oraclum Capital, sees the economy being able to avoid a recession throughout 2025. Ravi Chintapalli from the Global Fixed Income team at Nuveen, says in The NAVigator that structural changes have made the junk bond market stronger, while reducing default risk; as a result, yields of 7 percent should be normal and comfortable in 2025. Plus Mac Sykes, portfolio manager at Gabelli talks financial stocks in the Market Call. 

Ravi Chintapalli, Client Portfolio Manager on the Global Fixed Income team at Nuveen, says that the bond market has seen a structural change in the market for below-investment grade or junk bonds. Chintapalli says investors think of junk bonds as it was in times like 2007, when nearly one-third of the paper was teetering on the edge of default; today, however, only 10 percent of the below-investment grade paper carries those same low ratings, and default risk is much lower than in the past.  As a result, investors can expect high-yield bonds to live up to their promise, with 7 percent income levels moving forward, and some extra risk cushion in the many cases where the bonds are selling below par.

Welcome to another insightful episode of the Rainmaker Podcast hosted by Gui Kostin, Founder and CEO of Dakota. This week, Gui engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Jeff Carlin, CFA, Senior Managing Director and Head of Global Wealth Advisory at Nuveen. Jeff shares his extensive journey from his roots in San Francisco to becoming a pivotal figure in the investment industry, highlighting the milestones of his career, including his roles at Smith Barney, Charles Schwab, and IndexIQ before joining Nuveen in 2010.Jeff unpacks the evolution of Nuveen's wealth distribution strategy and the shift towards prioritizing impactful advisor relationships. By leveraging lessons from the SaaS industry, Jeff and his team focus on efficiency, segmentation, and team-oriented structures to optimize advisor engagement. He emphasizes the importance of de-channelization, segmenting advisors by their operational style rather than labels, and aligning sales structures to address dynamic client needs.A key highlight of the episode is Jeff's analogy of sales teams as jazz ensembles—finding harmony by following a consistent core structure while allowing individual creativity. He delves into the significance of clear communication, leveraging CRMs for accountability, and fostering a culture of respect and collaboration within sales teams.Jeff also provides advice for aspiring professionals in sales, stressing the value of patience, continuous learning, and embracing mentorship—whether through direct interaction or by observing industry leaders. He touches on the challenges of attracting and retaining top talent, emphasizing the necessity of aligning individual motivations with organizational culture.The episode concludes with Jeff's vision for sustainable success: building teams that are not just results-driven but also operate cohesively and ethically. Gui wraps up by reflecting on the core principles shared and their applicability to building thriving distribution organizations.

When we think of impactful investments, public fixed income probably isn't the first thing that comes to mind. Yet, it's driving far more capital into climate finance than we see in private equity, venture capital, and public equities combined. It's not just statistics – it's proof of the powerful impact fixed income can achieve.To learn more about the role of fixed income in sustainable impact investing, I'm speaking with Steve Liberatore, Head of ESG and Impact for Global Fixed Income, at Nuveen, one of the world's largest asset managers. A true pioneer, Steve has spent nearly two decades defining what sustainable bonds can achieve, crafting innovative green, blue, and nature bond frameworks that have become blueprints for the industry. Under his leadership, Nuveen's impact fixed income strategy is tackling some of today's most urgent challenges through a carefully structured approach that prioritizes positive social and environmental outcomes without compromising returns.Steve's strategy centers on “ring-fencing” proceeds to fund projects in four critical areas: affordable housing, renewable energy and climate, community and economic development, and natural resources. His approach drives large-scale impact by lowering the cost of capital for issuers, making it more affordable to finance sustainable projects that deliver long-term value.In this interview, Steve breaks down how Nuveen's global ESG strategy leverages public fixed income to drive measurable impact. Tune in for a fresh perspective on how responsible fixed income's unmatched scale is redefining impact investing and driving real, measurable change.–About the SRI 360° Podcast: The SRI 360° Podcast is focused exclusively on sustainable & responsible investing.

Today marks the end of COP16, the UN's biodiversity-focused Conference of the Parties in Cali, Colombia. The UN's climate change conference, COP29, is slated to begin Nov. 11 in Baku, Azerbaijan.  One common thread in these events is the challenge of addressing the big financing gaps for a range of sustainability issues — including climate, nature, and social equity.  In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we explore how the fixed income market is evolving to help fill in some of those sustainable finance gaps. We talk with Stephen Liberatore, Head of ESG and Impact for Global Fixed Income at Nuveen. Nuveen is a global asset manager with about $1.2 dollars trillion in total assets under management.  “One of the things that is really important to our investors is that we look for issuers and issues that have environmental benefit or environmental stewardship,” Stephen says. “The issues that they're trying to identify and invest in are longer-term issues. They're not things that are going to be resolved overnight.”  This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1, a part of S&P Global.      Copyright ©2024 by S&P Global     DISCLAIMER    By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

Retail's future is rapidly evolving, shaped by technology and changing consumer habits.

Annuities shift longevity risk from employees to insurance providers, ensuring participants don't run out of income in retirement.Employers can offer annuity options in 401(k) plans to provide pension-like guaranteed income without offering traditional pensions. Seek guidance from retirement plan consultants, product manufacturers, and record keepers when considering retirement income solutions. Industry trade groups offer certification programs to enhance advisors' knowledge of retirement income. Target date funds with embedded annuities gradually shift to guaranteed income as participants approach retirement.Record keepers face complexities in complying with legislation like SECURE 2.0 but are working to implement retirement income solutions. Young advisors should act now on innovative solutions to help employees build retirement savings.“Our belief is that simple, low cost, and portable will win that.

This episode is sponsored by Barings and Nuveen Technological innovation is making everything more digital-dependent, and a looming climate catastrophe is ramping up demands for cleaner energy. But neither digitisation nor the energy transition can be accomplished without building new infrastructure or repurposing existing assets, which requires some serious capital investment. Yet, with public purses at near empty levels and regulation constraining bank lending over the last decade, there is a sizable financing gap. This presents an opportunity for private markets. In this episode, Pieter Welman, head of global infrastructure at Barings, and Don Dimitrievich, a senior managing director at Nuveen and portfolio manager for the firm's energy infrastructure credit business, tell Infrastructure Investor's Helen Lewer that infra debt is a core part of the capital solution. They explain why the strategy's resilience in difficult economic conditions is piquing the interests of more and more LPs that are eager to finance the world's future infrastructure needs.
