Podcasts about public markets

Passive investing in private offerings can yield above market returns, it can also be a complete disaster. Apart from evaluating proforma numbers, it's critical to evaluate the General Partner and the team. The numbers are generic, the intangibles, including the character of who you're investing with, are less quantifiable and therefore harder to vet. There are too many newer, and generally inexperienced operators, cutting their teeth on passive investor's life savings. Unfortunately, this often results in investors losing their money. Mike Arndorfer, Founder of A2 Passive Coaching, helps passive investors avoid losses and secure gains by vetting deals they're considering investing in. 

In this episode of the InsuranceAUM.com Podcast, host Stewart Foley, CFA, is joined by Matt Brill, Head of North America Investment Grade Credit at Invesco. Together, they discuss a wide range of timely topics, including how insurers can navigate volatility in public markets, what relative value opportunities exist within investment grade credit, and how macroeconomic and political developments—particularly tariffs—are influencing fixed income strategies today.   Matt shares his personal journey from the mail room to managing $100 billion in assets and offers deep insight into how Invesco approaches portfolio construction for insurance clients. He outlines current sector views, including opportunities in banks and utilities, concerns around energy credits, and why now may be the time to selectively take on risk. The conversation also covers credit quality trends, the evolution of core plus strategies, and the importance of timing and conviction in a market shaped by policy uncertainty. This episode offers a practical and insightful look into credit markets from one of the industry's most respected voices.

This week, something seismic happened in private markets. Jeff Bezos, Michael Dell, and Coatue's Philippe Laffont announced a $1B tech fund that's now accessible to individual investors — with minimums starting at just $50K. Let that sink in. The floodgates are opening. What used to require millions and insider access is now coming to retail. First Hamilton Lane launched the first truly retail private fund exclusively on Repubic with a $500 minimum and now Coatue offering access to its own unique offering at $50k (funds like these typically have minimums in the millions). In this episode, Scott is joined by KingsCrowd's Head of Product, Brian Belley, to unpack the real impact of this new "public-private" trend — and how everyday investors (and fintech bros) can take advantage of this radically evolving market. What they discussed: - Why this marks the official arrival of the retail private equity era - The pros, cons, and potential traps for new investors - How to build a modern portfolio without getting wrecked by fees, hype, or fine print - Why the next generation of private investing will blur the lines between public and private assets Support the show (and your wallet) by creating a free account at Kingscrowd.com.

When investors consider how to diversify their investment portfolios, traditional assets like stocks and bonds are often the first things that come to mind. But private markets have become increasingly prominent in the financial landscape. These unique investments can offer diversification benefits that are often insulated from broader economic cycles. So, what's driving this shift towards private market investments and how are these trends reshaping the strategies of investors compared to previous cycles? Paul Braude and Vidy Vairavamurthy, Portfolio managers at BlackRock, join Oscar to help us understand the current themes driving private market opportunities, how they identify and evaluate emerging trends, and how private market investments can complement public market exposures.00:00 Introduction to Diversifying Investment Portfolios00:16 The Rise of Private Markets01:44 Understanding Private Markets and Alternatives03:52 Evolution and Growth of Private Markets07:03 Challenges and Opportunities in Private Markets12:34 Emerging Private Assets16:21 Trends Driving Private Markets19:50 Conclusion and Future OutlookSources: “As companies stay private longer advisors need access to private markets”, Nasdaq, August 2022; BlackRock with data from Prequin as of April 2024; “Expanded DPO” Viewprivate markets, public markets, emerging assets, music royalties, private creditThis content is for informational purposes only and is not an offer or a solicitation.

Carvana is one of the most wild stories in the public markets. The company IPO'd with a market cap of $2BN before skyrocketing to $60BN, only for the company to lose 99% of it's value hitting a bottom of $400M market cap. Today the company is stronger than ever and with a market cap of $41BN. Joining us in the hotseat is Dan Gill, Carvana's CPO, the man who oversees all technology functions, as well as strategic partnerships for the business. In Today's Episode with Dan Gill We Discuss: From $60BN to $400M Market Cap: What did Carvana do that Dan wishes they had not done? What did Carvana not do that Dan wishes they had done?  How do you maintain morale in a team when the company has lost 99% of it's value?  From $400M Back to $40BN Market Cap: What have been the core needle movers in Carvana's market cap surging? How does the Carvana business model benefit from economies of scale? How does vertical integration of the different products Carvana sells change the margin structure of the business?  The Future of Carvana: Why does Dan believe there is a massive market for Cavana in selling new cars? Why does Dan want to move into the peer to peer market, a market where so many before have failed? Why does Dan think Carvana should sell Chinese cars on the platform if American citizens want to buy them?  What revenue line does Carvana not have today that Dan believes will be the biggest in 10 years time?  Product Advice, North Star Metrics, Idea Selection: What is the product advice that Dan gives more than any other? How does Dan advise startup founders on how to know they have the right north star metric? What is his framework? How does Dan advise founders on how to select the right idea to work on? What is Dan's prioritisation framework for if an idea will have a larger enough impact and is therefore worthy of being worked on?
