As we head into fall, we take the opportunity to run a financial "fire drill"—not because we expect a crisis, but because we know volatility is inevitable. This episode is all about preparation: emotionally and strategically. Ed Lambert, Alex Cabot, and Jag kick things off with some seasonal banter, but quickly dive into why fall is a natural time to reassess our portfolios and our mindset around investing.Ed begins by reminding us that even in strong years, the market doesn't move in a straight line. The S&P 500 typically sees multiple 5% dips annually and about a 10% correction every year or two. But those drops aren't signs of failure—they're part of the process. He walks us through some of the scariest moments of the last 15 years—like the 2011 debt ceiling crisis, the COVID crash of 2020, and the recent sharp drop in April 2025—highlighting how each time, the market rebounded. The key, he says, is staying the course and not reacting emotionally. Emotional decisions—especially ones made in fear—almost always lead to poor outcomes.We focus heavily on the idea that emotional preparation is just as important as strategic allocation. Ed makes the point that volatility is the price of admission for long-term growth. He urges listeners to “zoom out” and look at the long-term trajectory of the market, where short-term declines barely register. Since 1980, despite multiple downturns, the market has averaged nearly 10% returns annually.Alex then picks up the second half of the fire drill analogy—portfolio preparation. He compares asset allocation to a smoke detector: you want it functioning before there's smoke. He explains that the right asset mix comes from evaluating three factors—your goals, your timeframe, and your risk tolerance. Importantly, risk tolerance has both a financial and emotional component, and the two don't always align. He gives practical examples for how these factors influence portfolio design—contrasting a 25-year-old saving for retirement with someone needing cash in six months for a car purchase.He also stresses the need to regularly rebalance portfolios. Just like a smoke detector can get out of sync, so can an asset allocation if left unattended. Ignoring this can lead to a portfolio that doesn't reflect your needs or goals. Whether it's a 5% dip or a 25% drawdown, a well-built and actively managed allocation keeps investors steady. Alex closes with an important reminder: every downturn in history has ended in recovery. The question isn't if volatility will come, but when—and how prepared we'll be.Have you ever had a smoke detector battery die in the middle of the night? We swap stories about that to cement our analogy.

In this episode of Where Brains Meet Beauty we meet Kevin Kim the Director of Beauty & Personal Care Investment Banking at Raymond James. His career journey didn't begin with balance sheets and deal rooms it began with medicine.As the oldest son of two psychiatrists, Kevin grew up assuming he'd follow in their footsteps. But by late high school, he realized his path needed to be his own. Drawn to a more global career, he pivoted from pre-med aspirations to business, ultimately landing in investment banking.His early years at Houlihan Lokey provided a crash course in analytics and resilience. But financial services M&A, mortgage servicing rights and insurance deals left him craving work that was more dynamic, more connected to culture. That pivot came when he joined boutique bank Financo in New York, where a chance partnership with beauty M&A legend Vinetta Coleridge introduced him to founder-led brands and the artistry of storytelling in finance.From helping Lily Gordon of First Aid Beauty raise early capital, to later selling the brand to P&G, Kevin learned that beauty transactions are never just about numbers, they're about people. Founders bring vision, quirks, and dreams to the table, and he leaned on skills inherited from his psychiatrist parents: listening deeply, decoding motivations, and helping brands show up as their best selves when it matters most.Today at Raymond James, Kevin has worked on more than 25 beauty deals, guiding brands through capital raises, acquisitions, and exits. He and his team specialize in founder-led businesses, translating brand “sparkle” into financial value while advising buyers on how to preserve the magic post-acquisition. His lens is global covering fragrance booms in Paris, K-beauty trends from Seoul, and indie darlings in Sephora aisles.His leadership style reflects the same ethos: hands-on, people-first, and rooted in immersion. New analysts join him on “Sephora field trips,” learning that to advise in beauty, you must love the category, feel the consumer pulse, and respect its nuances.For Kevin the real thrill isn't just closing a deal it's knowing that a beloved brand has a shot at its next chapter, that founder visions are honored, and that beauty continues to evolve as a global language.Thank you to our sponsor Beauty Connect - get 10% off tickets with code WBMB.

In this episode of Nurturing Financial Freedom, we dive into the implications of the newly passed federal tax bill—also known asl the “big, beautiful bill.” While the name might suggest sweeping changes, the truth is more about maintaining the status quo and preventing an expiration of key provisions from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. We break down what that means for retirees, investors, and anyone planning their financial future.We start with the basics. Alex explains that the bill keeps existing tax brackets intact through 2025. The seven current brackets—ranging from 10% to 37%—remain unchanged and will continue to adjust with inflation. This alone helps prevent tax hikes for most Americans. Next, we look at the standard deduction. It's staying high: $15,750 for individuals and $31,500 for married couples filing jointly in 2025. For seniors aged 65 and older, there's an added bonus—an additional $6,000 per person. That means some retired couples could deduct up to $43,500, significantly lowering their taxable income. However, this senior deduction phases out at incomes over $150,000 and disappears entirely at $250,000.Another highlight is a small but impactful update to tip and overtime tax treatment. Up to $2,500 in tips and $5,000 in overtime income will now be tax-exempt, a win for part-time workers and younger family members in service jobs. We also see an increase in the SALT (state and local tax) deduction cap—from $10,000 to $40,000—which could encourage some high earners in states like New York and California to start itemizing again.Ed takes over to unpack how this affects investments. Capital gains tax rates remain unchanged, with the familiar 0%, 15%, and 20% tiers, adjusted for inflation. The 3.8% net investment income tax—sometimes dubbed the Obamacare surcharge—still applies to higher-income earners. Importantly, the step-up in basis on inherited assets is untouched, preserving one of the most efficient methods of wealth transfer.The bill also maintains the Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) option, allowing those over 70½ to donate up to $100,000 directly from IRAs without increasing taxable income. Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) still begin at age 73. We round out with a reminder on smart asset location—keeping tax-inefficient investments in tax-deferred accounts and long-term strategies in taxable accounts.While the bill doesn't overhaul the tax code, it preserves favorable conditions for most Americans, especially retirees and investors. Our advice remains: understand how these provisions impact your specific situation and reach out to a financial professional for personalized planning.

There is an inverse relationship between interest rate movements and bond prices. Generally, when interest rates rise, bond prices fall and when interest rates fall, bond prices generally rise. Investing in small cap stocks generally involves greater risks, and therefore, may not be appropriate for every investor. The prices of small company stocks may be subject to more volatility than those of large company stocks. Securities offered through Raymond James Financial Services, Inc. Member FINRA/SIPC.

Matt Orton, CFA sits down with Ed Mills, managing director and Washington policy analyst at Raymond James, to break down the policy catalysts most likely to move markets.
Enterprise data management is undergoing a fundamental transformation. The traditional data stack built on rigid pipelines, static workflows, and human-led interventions is reaching its breaking point. As data volume, velocity, and variety continue to explode, a new approach is taking shape: agentic data management.In this episode of Tech Transformed, EM360Tech's Trisha Pillay sits down with Jay Mishra, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Astera, to explore why agentic systems powered by autonomous AI agents, Large Language Models (LLMs), and semantic search are rapidly being recognised as the next generation of enterprise data architecture.The conversation explores the drivers behind this shift, real-world applications, the impact on data professionals, challenges faced by agentic platforms, and the future of data stacks. Jay emphasises the importance of starting small and measuring ROI to successfully implement agentic solutions.What is Agentic Data Management?At its core, agentic data management is the application of intelligent, autonomous agents that can perceive, decide, and act across complex data environments. Unlike traditional automation, which follows predefined scripts, agentic AI is adaptive and self-directed. These agents are capable of learning from user behaviour, integrating with different systems, and adjusting to changes in context, all without human prompts.As Jay explains, "An agentic system is one that has the agency to make decisions, solve problems, and orchestrate actions based on real-time data and context, not just on training data.TakeawaysAgentic data management is the next evolutionary step in data architecture.Agents are autonomous and can make decisions on the fly.The demand for agentic solutions is increasing due to data volume and AI strategy needs.Maturity of foundation models enables near-human reasoning capabilities.Real-world applications of agentic AI include insurance claim processing.Data engineers will focus on policy and guardrail creation rather than coding.Governance, debt and hallucinations are significant challenges in agentic platforms.The future of data stacks will include declarative control plans and enhanced memory layers.Analysts will play a crucial role in defining policies for agentic systems.Starting small and demonstrating ROI is key to successful agentic implementation.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Agentic Data Management02:58 Understanding Agentic Data Management06:58 Drivers of Change in Data Management10:03 Real-World Applications of Agentic AI14:15 Impact on Data Engineers and Analysts16:43 Challenges and Limitations of Agentic Data Platforms20:03 Future of Data Stacks23:31 Final Thoughts on Agentic Data ManagementAbout Jay MishraJay Mishra is the Chief Product and Technology Officer at Astera Software, with over two decades of experience in data architecture and data-centric software innovation.
