The company focuses primarily on small and mid-market buyout strategies while selectively investing in venture capital and growth opportunities. This diversified approach provides exposure to more than one thousand underlying companies across numerous industries and regions.SpaceX and Exposure to Innovative Private CompaniesA key topic of the presentation is the company's exposure to SpaceX, one of the world's most talked-about private companies. Through its investment strategy, Matador participates in value creation generated by SpaceX alongside other innovative businesses such as Stripe, Revolut, Anduril Industries, and ByteDance. The presentation explains how these investments fit within the broader portfolio and how successful exits contribute additional capital for future investments.Secondary Private Equity Investments and Market AccessThe discussion also covers the role of secondary private equity investments and how Matador's listed structure provides access to an asset class that is often difficult for individual investors to access directly. By combining diversification, manager selection, and long-term portfolio construction, the company has developed a private equity portfolio designed to participate in long-term value creation across global private markets.Investment Philosophy and Portfolio StrategyOverall, the presentation provides insight into Matador's investment philosophy, portfolio composition, and approach to private equity investing. ▶️ Other videos:Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/T&CThis publication is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

In general, the value of a fixed-income security falls when interest rates rise and rises when interest rates fall. Longer term bonds are more sensitive to interest rate changes and subject to greater volatility than those with shorter maturities. High yield and unrated debt securities are at a greater risk of default than investment grade bonds and may be less liquid, which may increase volatility. Private debt investments are generally considered illiquid and not quoted on any exchange; thus they are difficult to value. The process of valuing investments for which reliable market quotations are not available is based on inherent uncertainties and may not be accurate.

Private equity gets sold as exclusive, sophisticated, and “what the smart money does,” but the reality is far less compelling. Don and Tom break down the illusion: limited transparency, questionable valuations, high fees, and serious liquidity risks—all for returns that barely edge out (if at all) simple public market strategies. They argue that the supposed advantages—like the “illiquidity premium” and diversification—don't hold up under scrutiny. The episode then pivots to smart listener questions on early retirement planning and 457 vs. 401(k) decisions, reinforcing a core theme: complexity is often marketed as intelligence, but disciplined simplicity usually wins.0:05 Financial pros sell complexity because it pays them more0:30 Private equity pitch: exclusivity, access, and “smart money” appeal1:40 Article breakdown: positives vs. negatives of private equity2:21 “You get to feel special” and access private companies3:00 The illusion of diversification and non-correlation3:37 Public vs. private pricing: real markets vs. guesswork4:04 Example of questionable private equity valuation jumps5:27 The “illiquidity premium” myth6:00 Liquidity risk: not being able to access your money6:27 Pension funds and private equity track record reality6:51 Returns comparison: private equity vs. public markets8:20 Small cap value vs. private equity (higher returns, lower cost)9:48 Why advisors push complex products (fees and optics)10:30 Liquidity crises and echoes of 2008 (Blue Owl example)11:36 Caller: early retirement planning with pension and TRICARE13:19 Financial readiness vs. purpose in retirement15:28 Long-term risks of early retirement and longevity16:19 Monte Carlo planning and scenario testing18:37 Listener question: 457 vs. 401(k) strategy19:56 Key advantage: penalty-free withdrawals from 457 plans23:13 Rare but real risk: non-governmental 457 ownership issue24:35 Roth vs. traditional: educated guesses, not certainties24:48 When you need a real financial plan (not just rules of thumb)26:03 Human advisor vs. emerging AI planning tools27:40 Closing thoughts and how to get helpQuestions?

Season 6, Episode 2: This week on the No Cap Podcast, we're sitting down with Ross Cooper — President & CIO of Kimco Realty (NYSE: KIM) — to talk about one of the most resilient asset classes in commercial real estate: grocery-anchored open-air retail. Ross is a third-generation real estate operator whose grandfather Milton Cooper co-founded Kimco back in 1958. After 20 years rising through the investment side of the platform, Ross now leads one of the largest publicly traded REITs in North America. This conversation covers all of it — the origin story, the GFC, the "retail apocalypse" narrative, and how Kimco has quietly built one of the most durable portfolios in the business. We get into how Kimco underwrites acquisitions (location + basis, always), why grocery anchors drive daily and weekly foot traffic that no other asset class can replicate, and how the four segments of the grocery market — traditional, discount, organic, and ethnic — each attract a distinct co-tenancy ecosystem.   Ross also breaks down Kimco's approach to redevelopment and densification, including 13,000+ multifamily units either built, under construction, or fully entitled across their portfolio, and why turning a sea of surface parking into a 25-story mixed-use tower can be additive — not disruptive — to the retail below. We also cover Kimco's structured investment program in preferred equity and mezz financing, how they think about balance sheet discipline (including a decade-long push to earn an A-minus credit rating from all three agencies), and why new ground-up retail construction would require 50–60% rent increases in most markets just to pencil — a supply constraint that's quietly been one of the biggest tailwinds for existing center owners. If you want to understand how a REIT that's been in the business since Eisenhower still finds mispriced assets, turns over capital intelligently, and thinks about what comes next — this episode is it.

Market drops grab headlines, but they’re rarely the biggest challenge facing retirement plans. On this episode, Ryan Herbert & Lawrence Kiely break down the difference between routine market corrections, bear markets, and rare major downturns, while also discussing why short-term volatility often gets more attention than long-term planning realities. They explain how retirement strategies can be structured to separate income needs from market swings, helping investors stay focused on monthly cash flow rather than daily headlines. The conversation also explores why market timing creates challenges, how recent volatility shows up in client conversations, and where tax strategies like Roth conversions tend to surface during down markets.

Conagra Brands has released its third annual Future of Frozen Food report, and we're speaking with Alie Burnet, director of Enterprise & Portfolio Strategy for Conagra, about the report's findings this year. She talks with the Food For Thought podcast about four trends driving growth in the frozen foods aisle, from protein-packed meals to restaurant-inspired favorites, family-style solutions, and all-day breakfast. Burnet digs into each of these trends and also discusses the quality demands that consumers have today and how frozen foods have stepped up to the plate to deliver that quality.

In this episode of Making Risk Flow, host Juan de Castro speaks with Antonio Grimaldi, Partner at McKinsey, about how London Market carriers can unlock growth by redesigning their operating models, not just optimising portfolios. They explore why execution drives the majority of performance, how underwriting workflows must be reimagined to free up judgement-led work, and what the shift towards facilities, MGAs, and alternative distribution means for competitive differentiation. The conversation cuts through the AI hype, outlining a pragmatic buy-versus-build framework and the real cost of “POC purgatory”. Antonio also reframes relationship-based service for 2026, arguing that speed, clarity, and decisive underwriting strengthen broker relationships more than manual processes; especially in a softening market.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

Every year, Wall Street rolls out confident forecasts for where the S&P 500 will end the year—and every year those projections are treated as actionable insight. For 2026, analyst expectations cluster around modestly positive returns, even as valuations sit near historical extremes and macro risks continue to build. Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz explain why year-ahead market forecasts are largely an exercise in false precision. Instead of offering a price target with zero confidence, we walk through the key forces that are likely to shape markets in 2026—including stretched valuations, liquidity injections disguised as “reserve management,” the Federal Reserve leadership transition, midterm elections, fiscal uncertainty, AI-driven capital spending, tariffs, geopolitics, and rising sovereign debt risks. We also examine historical market behavior to provide perspective on drawdowns, winning streaks, and why valuations are a poor short-term timing tool but an excellent long-term risk signal. Finally, we discuss why flexibility, discipline, and risk management matter far more than guessing an index level twelve months in advance. If you are an investor trying to navigate uncertainty without relying on headlines or optimistic forecasts, this discussion provides the framework you need to think more clearly about markets in 2026. 0:00 - INTRO 0:19 - Betting on Anything, Healthcare Subsidies, HSA's, & Housing Bans 8:15 - Roll-of in Markets 12:42 - Guessing at 2026 Markets 20:35 - Think About the Known; Consider the Unknown 22:59 - Quantitative Easing & Chart Crime 25:09 - The Powell Exit & Midterm Elections 28:21 - Will Europe Keep Dumping Money into US Markets? 29:55 - AI Infrastructure Boom & New Technologies 32:02 - Our Process for Managing Market Rotations 35:14 - SCOTUS' Tariff Ruling & Trump's Plan-B 37:10 - Return of the Yen Carry Trade 38:50 - Smart Money Has Already Considered the Risks 42:08 - Don't Get Too Comfortable with Narratives Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO, w Portfolio Manger, Michael Lebowitz, CFA Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch Today's Full Video on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQA10SrDk3s&list=PLVT8LcWPeAugpcGzM8hHyEP11lE87RYPe&index=1 ------- Articles Mentioned in Today's Show: "2026 Forecast: Tis The Season For Wild Guesses" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/2026-forecast-tis-the-season-for-wild-guesses/ -------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "Sector Rotation Quietly Begins," is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6zc2wXLn5o&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- REGISTER for our 2026 Economic Summit, "The Future of Digital Assets, Artificial Intelligence, and Investing:" https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2026-ria-economic-summit-tickets-1765951641899?aff=oddtdtcreator ------- Watch our previous show, "Open Chat Q&A: Markets, Earnings, Taxes & Portfolio Strategy," here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGgxAtaZIOI&list=PLVT8LcWPeAugpcGzM8hHyEP11lE87RYPe&index=1 -------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestm entadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- SUBSCRIBE to The Real Investment Show here: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow -------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #MarketUpdate #SectorRotation #StockMarketNews #EconomicData #MarketVolatility #MarketOutlook2026 #StockMarketRisk #InvestorDiscipline #FedPolicy #ValuationsMatter

Markets are hitting all-time highs, earnings expectations are rising, and investors are navigating everything from oil prices to Roth conversions. Lance Roberts & Danny Ratliff take live viewer questions and explore the themes investors are most focused on right now. Topics discussed include why earnings may be the primary market driver this year, what recent all-time highs signal for forward returns, and how capital flows are shifting across sectors and asset classes. We also examine oil markets—WTI pricing, energy stocks, Venezuela supply dynamics—and what the "sweet spot" for oil prices means for the broader economy. On the planning side, we address Roth IRA advantages and drawbacks, Roth conversions, RMD considerations, and asset allocation questions across different life stages, including retirement-focused portfolios. Additional discussion covers the growing disconnect between GDP and unemployment data, hidden consumer leverage through buy-now-pay-later programs, and how diversification differs from simply owning non-correlated assets. We also touch on factor rotation, bond ETF structure, metals like gold and silver, and whether certain defensive or out-of-favor sectors may eventually regain investor interest. 0:00 - INTRO 0:18 - Earnings to be The Big Driver this Year 5:45 - Markets Hit All-time Highs 9:23 - Economic Summit Preview & Danny's Holiday Recap 12:25 - WTI, XLE, and Venezuela Oil 17:51 - What is the "Sweet Spot" for Oil Pricing? 21:23 - Tax Advantages - Disadvantages of Roth IRA 24:38 - Where to Look for Capital Flows 27:08 - Roth Conversions & RMD's 28:27 - Commentary - Divergence Between Unemployment & GDP 31:10 - Unrecognized Debt - Buy Now - Pay Later is a Black Box 31:53 - Recommendations for 60-40 Allocations 35:03 - Example of Bond ETF's in SimpleVisor 38:57 - Factor Rotation Portfolio 41:54 - Diversification vs Non-Correlated Assets 44:46 - Silver, Gold, & Other Metals 45:51 - Back Door Roth Conversions 47:30 - Asset Allocations for Septuagenarians 50:18 - Are Packaged Food stocks Ever Coming Back?

On this week's Money Matters, Scott and Pat open the show with a look at the Magnificent Seven stocks. Is this tech dominance a warning sign or just the new market normal? They unpack what this concentration means for index investors and why historical perspective matters. Next, they take a call from a 56-year-old tech professional navigating a surprise layoff and considering early retirement. With over $2M in assets and plans to relocate, they walk through whether he can afford to stop working—or if some part-time income is essential. It's a timely breakdown of early retirement math, real estate moves, and RSU liquidation strategy. The episode wraps with two strong planning discussions: a state employee navigating Roth vs. traditional 401(k)/457 contributions, and a retiree using a "bucket strategy" who wants feedback on portfolio structure.

From the Onramp Media Archives..Lyn Alden traces the arc of monetary technology—from shells and tobacco to gold and Bitcoin—and how each leap reshaped who controls money. She explains why Bitcoin represents the end of financialization and the first true form of digital settlement, closing a 150-year gap between transactions and finality.

In this episode of the BiggerPockets Money podcast, hosts Mindy Jensen and Scott Trench welcome Frank Vasquez back on to challenge everything you thought you knew about safe withdrawal rates. Frank reveals how a properly constructed risk parity portfolio can support a 5% withdrawal rate—meaning you could comfortably pull $125,000 annually from a $2.5 million portfolio without the traditional fear of running out of money. This isn't theoretical; it's a practical strategy that sophisticated investors have been using for decades. Frank takes listeners step-by-step through building this portfolio on Fidelity, demonstrating real-world implementation rather than just concepts. You'll discover how mathematical principles like the Fibonacci sequence can guide your allocation decisions, why traditional diversification falls short, and how to rebalance effectively without overthinking the process. Most importantly, Frank shows how to customize this approach to your specific situation, making risk parity accessible whether you're approaching FIRE or already financially independent. This Episode Covers: Risk parity fundamentals - Understanding true diversification beyond stocks and bonds Asset class breakdown - Specific investments across equities, bonds, commodities, and alternatives Rebalancing strategies - When and how to adjust your portfolio without constant tinkering Withdrawal techniques - Practical methods for taking income from multiple asset classes And SO much more!
