Fernando Vinzons is Chief Investment Officer at the Chicago Teacher's Pension Fund, a role he has held for almost 3 years. He previously spent over 13 years at the Cook County Pension Fund and started his career in investment research. Our conversation starts with Fernando's initiation into stock picking, and how he earned the ropes pitching stock ideas to a legendary hedge fund manager. We move then to his move to an allocator role, and the entrepreneurial nature of his formative years, when resource constraints required the wearing of many hats.We move then to the Chicago Teachers Pension Plan and we discuss their diversity program in detail - we hear how the pension fund is leading the way in diversity, with over 51% of their portfolio managed by MWBE firms. The Fund's "First Look" program gives smaller investment firms a platform to showcase their talents and break through traditional industry barriers. We discuss the benefit that this dialogue can create for these emerging managers who still struggle to get air time. Ending with advice and reflections, Fernando offers a reminder to stay calm, focus on long-term strategies, and remember that there's more to life than work stress.

In today's episode, Alan Dunne and I take a step back - and a step forward - by exploring 125 years of hard-earned market wisdom, courtesy of the Global Investment Returns Yearbook, the definitive source of long-term asset class performance. What does this rich dataset tell us about equities, bonds, diversification, and the underrated role of patience in investing? And how relevant are these lessons for investors navigating today's high-concentration markets, stubborn inflation, and the potential cracks in the classic 60/40 portfolio?But that's not all - we also dive into one of the most overlooked challenges facing systematic trend followers today: capacity constraints, especially in commodities. Drawing on Quantica's latest research, we examine why commodities have historically been critical to CTA performance, how liquidity limits silently erode returns as strategies scale, and why the explosive growth of trend following ETFs may come at a hidden cost investors rarely see.-----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:00:41 - What has caught our attention recently?04:14 - A new era for Germany?10:02 - The ETF space is on fire11:21 - The Nordic countries are on a roll12:18 - Dunne's global macro perspective21:39 - Industry performance update27:07 - An analysis of the Global Investment Returns Yearbook34:29 - Why are expected returns so far off real returns in the Pension Fund space?41:07...

Few citizens understand how much the toxic alphabet soup of political ideologies such as ESG, DEI and CRT has burst out of academia into government and even financial markets. The first line of defense against this has been the states, particularly the formerly somewhat mundane offices such as Treasurer, Auditor General, Comptroller, Commissioner of Revenue, CFO. Woke politics in investing was a major theme in North Carolina's Treasurer election this year, and the people resoundingly chose Brad Briner to go into office and continue the task initiated by his predecessor Dale Folwell of cleaning ESG and DEI out of consideration in investment decisions. In Ep. 93, Briner joined Jerry on this episode to talk about that battle as well as the battle for federalism, to stop the federal government from forcing N.C. to finance sex change treatments in its already overloaded state health care program. Briner also talks about going into office to reduce its power and the business case against green energy mandates. Briner makes the case against the intrusion of both left wing and right wing politics into finance.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Trustees of the IAM National Pension Fund v. M & K Employee Solutions, LLC
Last month, former Prime Minister Stephen Harper re-entered the headlines, after being appointed to chair the board of AIMCo, the Alberta Investment Management Corporation. His return followed mass upheaval at the company – with the Alberta government abruptly firing most of its senior leadership and board members. AIMCo is responsible for managing hundreds of thousands of public-sector pensions, totaling more than $169 billion. What is happening at Canada's sixth largest pension fund manager and what does it mean for these pensions?James Bradshaw is the Globe's institutional investing reporter. He'll explain the shake up at AIMCo and why the separation of government from public pension funds is at stake. Questions? Comments? Ideas? Email us at thedecibel@globeandmail.com
In 1932, the United States was in the grip of the Great Depression. One in four Americans were unemployed, nearly 9,000 banks had failed. Franklin Roosevelt was elected to the first of his four terms as President of the United States, and a retirement system for state employees was established in California. It became the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS). Today it's America's largest public pension fund, managing over $500bn (as of July 2024). In this conversation, Marcie explains her journey to the helm of the organisation that is CalPERS today, and its over 2 million beneficiaries. She discusses unfunded liabilities, and the balance between strategic and tactical allocation. She continues in reviewing their approach to active v passive in equity and fixed income. She discusses allocations to private equity and private debt, to hedge funds and real estate, and why their allocations to infrastructure are likely to increase. She reflects on the intense scrutiny of being a highly visible public entity, and how divestment is not their first response in industries like energy, even though sustainability is a key priority. She concludes with thoughts on culture, leadership, CalPERS being more nimble, and some great advice for females in finance.

Jon Glidden is the CIO of Delta Air Lines, where he oversees the company's $16 billion pension fund. Jon joined Delta in 2011, when the plan had $7.5 billion in assets, a $13 billion underfunded liability, and the highest actuarial expected rate of return (9%) of any company in the S&P 500. Despite funded status that threatened the solvency of the company thirteen years ago, investment performance combined with corporate contributions that offset plan payouts have improved Delta's funding status from 42% to 102% today, creating the largest corporate pension turnaround in history. Our conversation discusses Jon's independent thinking and innovative approach that led to his incredible feat. We start with his Naval and investment background and then cover the four forces that drive his investment philosophy - portable alpha, private equity, portfolio construction, and governance - and the implementation of each.

For more information and show notes visit: https://bwmplanning.com/post/90In latest episode of Financial Planning for Oil and Gas Professionals, Jared & Justin dive deep into the fascinating world of Texas's $200 billion Teacher's Pension Fund. Did you know that 1 in 20 Texans participates in this pension? That's millions of people relying on smart investment strategies. We break down the allocation and what you can learn from it:1) The Importance of Diversification: The Texas Teacher's Pension allocates 54% of its assets to global equity, 21% to stable value, and 21% to real return. This diversified approach allows them to manage risk effectively while capitalizing on various market conditions. For individual investors, especially those heavily invested in oil and gas, this serves as a reminder to diversify across different asset classes to mitigate risk and enhance long-term returns. One standout feature? They have a dedicated sleeve for energy, natural resources, and infrastructure investments. We explore why they believe these sectors will remain crucial despite climate change concerns.2) Time Horizon Matters: One of the most critical factors in investment strategy is your time horizon. The Texas Teacher's Pension has a long-term perspective, allowing them to invest in illiquid assets like private equity and real estate. In contrast, individual investors, particularly those nearing retirement, need to consider their cash flow needs and adjust their portfolios accordingly. Understanding your investment timeline is essential for making informed decisions that align with your financial goals.3) Benchmarking Performance: The pension fund emphasizes the importance of comparing investments against appropriate benchmarks. They utilize a Public Markets Equivalent (PME) to assess the performance of their hedge fund investments, ensuring they are evaluated on their own merits rather than against unrelated asset classes. This approach highlights the necessity for all investors to establish relevant benchmarks for their portfolios, allowing for a clearer understanding of performance and value.4) Investment Fees: Did you know that a 1% management fee can add up significantly over time? We share insights on how to keep costs in check and discuss importance of understanding what you pay for investment management.As always, we encourage our listeners to reach out with any questions or ideas for future episodes at podcast@brownleewealthmanagement.com.Thank you for tuning in, and we look forward to bringing you more insightful episodes in the future.Connect With Us:Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BrownleeWealthManagement/?ref=py_cLinkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brownlee-wealth-management/Disclosure: This information is for informational purposes only.

Retail sales beats expectations but shows consumer is still softening. June retail sales came in flat compared to the previous month, this topped the expectation for a 0.4% decline. Compared to last June, retail sales were up 2.3%. Areas of strength included non-store retailers (+8.9%), food services and drinking places (+4.4%), clothing and clothing accessories stores (+4.3%), and electronics and appliance stores (+2.7%). Both furniture and home furnishing stores (-4.0%) and building material and garden equipment and supplies dealers (0.9%) were done when looking year over year, but they have perhaps started to turn the corner as they both showed month over month gains. Gasoline stations were also a negative weight as it was down 3.0% compared to last month and 0.4% compared to last year. Overall, I believe this is a strong report that shows an economy that is slowing but remains in a healthy place. With this news and other comments from Fed chair Powell markets have now priced in a 100% chance of at least one rate cut by the September meeting. Will oil demand increase or decrease in years to come? I have been concerned about oil consumption and investing in oil related companies based on the increase in electric and hybrid vehicles. Unfortunately, there's not much help in predicting oil demand from the experts. British petroleum, also known as BP, expects oil demand will plateau by 2025. They believe the subsequent decline will depend on how aggressive countries get with carbon omissions. BP believes by 2050 oil demand could drop down to 25 million to 30 million barrels a day if countries get serious about a “net zero” goal. This would be a major decline from today's level of about 102 million barrels a day. But there's others who disagree such as OPEC which sees demand growing by 4.1 million barrels a day from 2023 to 2025 and continuing to rise at least through 2045. The Paris-based International Energy Agency forecasts a peak in 2029 and the US Energy Information Administration is looking for peak between 2030 and 2040. It also looks like Warren Buffett does not believe a peak is coming soon as he has been investing heavily into Occidental Petroleum and has a sizeable stake in Chevron. With all the uncertainty, I believe if an investor is going to invest in an energy company, it should be a well-diversified. Japan's $1.5 trillion pension fund could be a black Swan for our stock market. Japan has grown their pension fund to $1.5 trillion over the years and has continued to increase the amount of money they invest in the US. As of March 31st, about 50% of the fund was held in foreign stocks and bonds, most of which was in the United States. The problem they have is their currency, the yen vs the dollar has fallen to levels not seen since President Reagan was in office. The investments in foreign countries have led to some criticism as some say it amounts to a vote of no confidence by the Japanese government in its own currency. It is unknown what US equities they hold, but the fund was up 23% in its most recent fiscal year. My concerns are what if they want to reduce their exposure to US equities and bonds to 30%? That would be a reduction of around $300 billion. What if they hold in their pension the high-flying technology companies? How would those stocks perform if the fund sold $100 to maybe $200 billion worth of stock? No one knows for sure, but with that 23% gain there is a high likelihood that they had a portion perhaps a good portion of the investments in the US technology companies. A Major Mistake with Spousal Social Security When collecting Social Security on your own work history, you may collect between the ages of 62 and 70. Every month you wait, your benefit amount increases. In cases where one spouse did not work, or had a very limited earnings history, that spouse may qualify for a larger spousal benefit from Social Security. The maximum spousal benefit is one half of the higher earning spouse's full retirement age benefit amount, and the lower earning spouse would need to collect at their own full retirement age to receive it. If this half is more than what they would receive from their own earnings history, they will receive the larger spousal benefit, not both. If they collect before their full retirement age, they will receive a reduced amount. Also, the higher earning spouse must be collecting for the lower earning spouse to be able to collect a spousal benefit. Many people have the idea of deferring their Social Security until age 70 so they receive the highest possible monthly amount. This strategy may not be the best decision normally, and it can be even more problematic when a spousal benefit applies. I met with some people this week who had this idea. One spouse worked and the other did not, so a spousal benefit was definitely going to be applicable. The problem is, a spousal benefit does not get any larger beyond full retirement age, which in this case was age 66 and 10 months for both of them. They were both the same age, so if they had waited to collect until 70, the lower earning spouse would be deferring 38 months (from 66 and 10 months until 70) for no additional benefit. In this case the spousal benefit was about $1,900 per month so whether she collects at 66 and 10 months or waits until 70, she would still receive only $1,900. This mistake would have cost them over $70,000 in missed Social Security benefits. Fortunately, they had not reached their full retirement age yet and the working spouse had not retired, so they had not lost anything yet. If you will be receiving a spousal benefit from Social Security it is almost never helpful to defer beyond your full retirement age, which is usually around age 67. Companies Discussed: CrowdStrike (CRWD), Amazon (AMZN) and PepsiCo (PEP)

In this interview, we return to Canada. Having interviewed Jo Taylor of OTPP last year, this time we sought out one of the most well-known and successful women in private equity, someone who is also proving to be a huge role model for young women pursuing careers in the investment industry. Suyi Kim, educated at the University of Seoul and then Stanford, explains the attraction PE had for her as she pivoted from consultancy. She discusses sourcing the deals, when they entered and exited Alibaba, the differences in the opportunities in PE investing across continents, and importantly, how they approach China. She discusses how PE has changed, why it remains a bottom-up process, the potential for high returns, and why it is an attractive business for young people to consider. Finally; she shares her two most important words: “Be Curious”!
