Jesse is joined by Rubin Miller—former Dimensional Fund Advisors insider, founder and CIO of Peltoma Capital Partners, author of the Fortunes and Frictions blog, and national chess master—for a wide-ranging conversation about how investment philosophy, behavioral discipline, and real-world client psychology intersect. Rubin pulls back the curtain on how factor tilts like small-cap, value, and profitability work. The discussion moves beyond theory into practice, tackling commoditization in passive investing, the tradeoffs between index funds and structured tilts, and the uncomfortable truth that great investment decisions can look wrong for years. Rubin also challenges spreadsheet-only thinking, defending dollar-cost averaging for large windfalls as a behavioral risk-management tool rather than a return-maximization tactic. Throughout, he emphasizes that the most important portfolio design principle isn't squeezing out incremental expected return—it's building a strategy clients can stick with when markets inevitably deliver noise, volatility, and surprise. The result is a candid, technically grounded, and deeply human look at what long-term investing actually demands. Key Takeaways: • Factor tilts—such as small-cap, value, and profitability—are grounded in decades of academic research but require patience to endure long droughts. • Expected returns dominate over long horizons; unexpected returns dominate in the short run. • Spreadsheet-optimal strategies are not always behaviorally optimal strategies. • The best portfolio is one an investor can stay invested in during extreme volatility. • Financial advisors add value not just through portfolio construction but through expectation management. • Long-term investing success depends less on brilliance and more on discipline, humility, and staying on the bus.

#214: What if the real dopamine hit lands before anything good even happens? We pressed pause on social media for Lent and followed the trail into how anticipation drives our reward system, why constant pings can flatten motivation, and how a slower life can quietly rewire focus. Along the way, we talk candidly about ADHD questions, a short Adderall trial, and the confusing overlap between true attention disorders and a brain saturated with novelty.We dig into the science in plain language: dopamine as the fuel for pursuit, not just pleasure; how slot machines, inboxes, and infinite feeds hook us with maybe; and why tolerance builds until the same habits feel empty. Then we get practical. From turning off nonessential notifications to batching messages, logging out of apps to add friction, and swapping fast hits for slower rewards like reading and walking, we share the tools that actually lowered our urge to scroll. We also connect the dots between gut health, key nutrients like iron, B6, and magnesium, and a steadier neurochemical base for mood and attention.If you've been feeling scattered, irritable, or oddly bored while constantly stimulated, you're not broken—you're adapting to an environment engineered for attention capture. Rebalancing isn't about doing more with slick productivity hacks; it's about wanting less, on purpose, and giving boredom the room to spark depth and creativity again. Listen for a grounded mix of personal story, approachable neuroscience, and small steps that add up to a big reset.

This episode marks Kathy Jones' farewell as co-host of On Investing. Collin Martin, Schwab's head of fixed income research, takes over as co-host starting on March 20. As Kathy prepares for retirement after a decades-long career in finance, she reflects back on some of the most important lessons she learned throughout her career. She recounts how she started out as a runner at the Chicago Board of Trade before moving into research. Some of her core investing lessons from 50 years in markets include: The trend is your friend, don't marry your investments, and understand risk management.  Then, in light of recent military action in Iran, Kathy and Liz Ann also discuss the state of geopolitical risk and its market implications.

Die Märkte haben in den letzten Tagen wieder gezeigt, wie schnell „Risiko“ zurück auf die Agenda kommt: Geopolitik als Treiber, Energieabhängigkeiten in Asien, Europas strukturelle Schwächen und zugleich die Frage, wie Inflation, Zinsen und Staatsverschuldung in dieses Bild hineinspielen. Tobias Kramer und Christian W. Röhl (Chief Economist von Scalable Capital) ordnen das ein: Was davon ist fundamental? Was ist Momentum? Und warum sind exakte Prognosen bei Zinsen und Währungen in solchen Phasen oft eher Nebelwand als Orientierung? Im zweiten Teil geht es um Struktur, in der Analyse und fürs Vermögen: Tobias und Christian schauen auf Ray Dalios All-Weather-Portfolio als Framework, das Renditetreiber entlang von Wachstum und Inflation denkt. Was hat der Ansatz in den letzten Jahren geliefert? Wo kam die Stabilität her? Welche Bausteine müsste man heute pragmatischer aufsetzen? Ist Gold weiterhin ein Thema? Wie kann man Anleihen vernünftig und risikokonform abdecken? Zum Schluss wird es praktisch: eine verdichtete „Vier gewinnt“-Variante mit klarer und sehr kostengünstiger Rebalancing-Regel (Schwellen statt Kalender) – als Beispiel dafür, wie strategische Asset-Allokation über lange Zeiträume Volatilität und Drawdowns reduzieren kann, auch wenn man dadurch nicht in jeder Phase „optimal“ liegt. Ziel ist wie üblich Orientierung: Nicht unbedingt Recht behalten in fünf Tagen – sondern eine tragfähige Portfolio-Logik über Jahre einsetzen!

In this episode of The Derivative, Jeff Malec is joined by Patrick Kazley of OneRiver explore how long volatility, convexity, trend following, and systematic macro can be combined in a capital‑efficient way to improve equity compounding and protect portfolios from major drawdowns. They discuss crisis “shapes,” why time-based rebalancing often beats intuitive drawdown triggers, how changing volatility microstructure (zero‑DTE, single-name vol, dispersion) creates new opportunities, and why behavioral biases keep most investors under-allocated to positively skewed defensive strategies. Patrick ties it all together with vivid metaphors — from F1 cars and soup vs. salad to sumo wrestlers and the beer boot — and explains how One River's acquisition of a European alternatives/QIS team fits into their total-portfolio approach..… SEND IT!Chapters:00:00-02:21 = Intro02:22-12:33= From AQR to One River – Patrick's Background and the Case for Systematic Risk Mitigation12:34-28:07 = Engines and Brakes – Equity Beta, Skew, and the Power of Convexity28:08-43:55= Crisis Types, Trend Following, and Building a Total Portfolio Defense43:56-1:03:04= Visualizing Risk – Crisis Shapes, Rebalancing, and the Math of Convexity1:03:05-1:16:36= Metaphors, Markets, and M&A – From F1 Cars to Das Boot and One River's Next Phase1:16:37-1:28:37= Soup vs. Salad – Total Portfolio Thinking and the Future of One RiverFrom the Episode:Blog post: A Short History of Market-Moving Middle East ConflictsOneRiver's WhitepapersFollow along with Patrick and OneRiver on LinkedIn and make sure to check out OneRiver's website www.oneriveram.comDon't forget to subscribe to⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Derivative⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, follow us on Twitter at⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@rcmAlts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and our host Jeff at⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@AttainCap2⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, or⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ , and⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠sign-up for our blog digest⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Disclaimer: This podcast is provided for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon as legal, business, or tax advice.

If you've ever felt exhausted, resentful, or quietly overwhelmed by the invisible labor in your home, this episode will give language to what you've been carrying.In this interview, I sit down with a licensed educator and author of No More Mediocre: A Call to Reimagine Our Relationships and Demand More, Laura Danger. Together, we unpack the invisible dynamics shaping modern relationships - especially inside our homes.We break down weaponized incompetence - what it is, how it shows up in everyday partnerships, and how to tell the difference between genuine lack of knowledge and avoidance disguised as helplessness. We talk about the emotional toll of constantly “picking up the slack,” the burnout that comes from carrying the mental load, and the way emotional and domestic labor often falls disproportionately on women and marginalized partners.We explore the Nag Paradox - why advocating for equity so often gets reframed as complaining, criticizing, or being “too much.” Why do reminders and boundary-setting get labeled as nagging? And what does that framing protect?From chore wars to communication breakdowns, we examine the difference between equality and equity in relationships, and why naming, tracking, and redistributing invisible labor can fundamentally shift the health of a partnership.

In this bonus episode, Warren Ingram and Ray Mhere discuss the critical aspects of investment behavior, focusing on the behavior gap that often leads investors to underperform compared to their unit trusts. They explore the psychological factors influencing investment decisions, such as panic selling and performance chasing, and emphasize the importance of aligning investment choices with personal goals and risk tolerance. The discussion also highlights the necessity of rebalancing portfolios and evaluating fund performance based on management and philosophy, ultimately, providing strategies for successful investing, including regular contributions and maintaining a disciplined approach to investment management. TakeawaysInvestors often underperform their unit trusts due to behavioral factors.The behavior gap is a significant issue in investment performance.Panic selling during market downturns can lead to poor investment decisions.Chasing performance often results in buying high and selling low.Aligning investment choices with personal goals is crucial for success.Rebalancing portfolios regularly helps maintain the desired asset allocation.Evaluating fund performance should focus on management and investment philosophy.Investors should compare similar funds to make informed decisions.Regular contributions can mitigate the effects of market volatility.A disciplined investment strategy is essential for long-term success.Learn more about how Curate Investments can help you here.Send a textThe SafeWork Advantage PodcastMost workplaces react to violence—SafeWork Advantage shows employers how to prevent it.Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifyHave a question for Warren?

Yield — The Chronicles of Financial MarketsCardinal Protocol · Avvisi Financial Intelligence---# How Harvard Turned $4.7 Billion into $50 Billion### The formula is public. The discipline is rare. And what $100M families get catastrophically wrong.*The Herclestein Endowment Framework · Part I — Institutional Capital · Long-Duration Strategy*---In 1985, Harvard's endowment held $4.7 billion.In 2025, it holds over $50 billion.That is not a story of luck. It is not a story of billionaire donations alone — though donations played a role. It is a story of structural mathematics applied with institutional discipline across four decades.Returns did the heavy lifting. Donations accelerated the machine.**And the formula is public.**Yet almost no one applies it.---## I. The Machine: The Math That Multiplies CapitalThe long-term endowment equation is deceptively simple:> **K(t+1) = Kt (1 + r − s) + D**>> r = gross return> s = spending rate> D = net donations> K = capital at time tFor a family office — or an athlete with $100M — we strip out donations and focus on the core engine. Harvard's historical gross return has averaged 10–11% annually. Apply a 4–5% spending rate and the net structural compounding sits between 5–6%. Over 40 years:**At 5% net → 1.05⁴⁰ ≈ 7× capital****At 6% net → 1.06⁴⁰ ≈ 10× capital**That is the machine. No leverage. No speculation. Just time and spread.---## II. The Architecture: The Swensen DoctrineThe intellectual capital behind this machine was built not at Harvard, but in New Haven.David Swensen at Yale did not just manage money — he codified a philosophy. Before Swensen, endowments looked like conservative portfolios: bonds, blue-chip stocks, and a prayer. Swensen understood that if your time horizon is infinite, you cannot anchor yourself to assets designed for retirees.> *"If your time horizon is perpetuity, you cannot afford to think like a pensioner."*The Yale Model rests on five pillars:**1. Equity Bias**Own the world's productive capacity. Over centuries, you win.**2. Illiquidity Premium**Private assets pay you for surrendering liquidity you don't need.**3. Zero Home Bias**Geography is irrelevant. Cash flows are what matter.**4. Manager Selection**Find top-quartile operators — not top-quartile stock pickers.**5. Rebalancing Discipline**Sell what is loved. Buy what is hated. Without emotion.Harvard, through the Harvard Management Company (HMC), built its own engine on similar principles. Different execution — internal versus external management — same philosophical root.---## III. The Discipline: Why Individuals FailThis structure survived the dot-com collapse, the 2008 financial crisis, and the pandemic shock. The model held each time. Capital recovered. The machine kept running.Why do individuals with $100M so often fail to replicate it? Not because of mathematics. Because of behavior.**Rule 1 — Never overspend in good years.**The athlete who buys the jet after a 20% return breaks the compound. The formula punishes it silently, across decades.**Rule 2 — Never panic in bad years.**The family office that fires managers at the bottom locks in losses and misses the recovery. Every time.**Rule 3 — Maintain allocation discipline.**Rebalancing forces you to buy when blood is in the streets. That is where the premium lives.Universities survive for centuries because they are not emotional. They are governed by investment committees, by charters, by fiduciary obligation — not by impulses.A family is just a university of one. But it requires the governance of an institution.---#harvard #endowment #solomonvonherclestein #finance #legacy

Michael Cuggino says market volatility creates opportunity for disciplined investors willing to rebalance rather than react to headlines. He favors diversification across U.S. equities, commodities, and precious metals, highlighting Morgan Stanley (MS) alongside defense and industrial names like Lockheed Martin (LMT) and Parker‑Hannifin (PH). While AI and defense valuations remain elevated, Cuggino argues that pullbacks and a global macro approach are key as deficits grow and energy pressures re-emerge.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

How often should you rebalance your investment portfolio? If you Google this question, you'll find the standard answer: quarterly or annually. But what if that advice doesn't fit YOUR situation? In this episode, father-daughter advisor team Bill and Anastasia Taber tackle the rebalancing debate: Questions answered:  ✓ What is portfolio rebalancing and why does it matter?  ✓ Why do passive investors rebalance on a calendar schedule?  ✓ What does academic research say about rebalancing benefits?  ✓ When should you break the quarterly rebalancing rule?  ✓ How do taxes change your rebalancing strategy?  ✓ Should you rebalance differently in your 401(k) vs. taxable account?  ✓ What's the difference between rebalancing for passive vs. active investors? The surprising truth: Without rebalancing, a 60/40 portfolio can drift to 80%+ stocks, creating way more risk than you intended. But rigid calendar-based rebalancing isn't the only solution. And for some investors, it's not even the best one. Anastasia (CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™) and Bill (40+ years managing client money) explain why they don't follow conventional rebalancing advice, share real examples of when calendar rebalancing hurts returns, and reveal the tax implications many investors miss. Your takeaway: A clear framework for deciding how often YOU should rebalance based on your investment style, tax situation, and time horizon. Perfect for DIY investors, those working with advisors, or anyone trying to build a smarter investment strategy. Subscribe for behavioral finance insights and practical financial tips.

For investors nearing retirement, decisions surrounding pension elections and portfolio discipline require careful analysis. In this episode, we examine two foundational areas of retirement planning.First, we discuss the mechanics of portfolio rebalancing and its role in maintaining intended risk levels over time. Second, we analyze a real world pension scenario involving a $60,000 lifetime annuity versus a $1.2 million lump sum. The conversation explores income durability, estate impact, Monte Carlo outcomes, liquidity considerations, and how a personal pension strategy can alter long term results.This episode is intended to provide structured perspective for those evaluating significant retirement decisions.Learn more at swpconnect.com

Dear Friends,In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Doug Hilton, a counselor with over 30 years of experience supporting clients through trauma, addiction recovery, and couples/family dynamics, and a Certified Universal Healing Tao instructor who has integrated Qigong into his clinical practice for two decades. Doug is also the co-author (with Master Mantak Chia) of The Tao of Addiction and Recovery, a book that reframes addiction through a Taoist lens: not as a moral failure, but as a system-level imbalance—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.Together, we explore:- Why Doug describes addiction as an imbalance in the system, and how that insight emerged through Taoist training in Thailand- What Taoism is (and what it is not): a spiritual system rooted in living in harmony with nature, without dogma or forced belief- How addiction develops through natural human tendencies (adaptation, denial, pain avoidance) that can become exploited over time- The Taoist view of recovery as harmony over willpower, and why inner balance reduces the “need to medicate”- A practical, grounding Qigong entry point: breathing into the lower Dantian (“Where the mind goes, the chi follows”)- The Inner Smile Meditation and the elemental organ system—how sequencing (wood → fire vs. water → fire) supports balance- Doug's work bridging Western therapy and Taoist energetics: EMDR, trauma, and Taoist Emotional Recycling (TER)- A simple guided TER eye-movement practice you can try (when you are not driving) to support emotional clearing- Shame, guilt, relapse, and how restoring flow through the “garden hose” system of energy channels changes recovery outcomes- Why sexuality and sexual energy are often neglected in mainstream recovery—and how Taoist practices help integrate it with care- Doug also shares his personal journey—how Taoism “found him” long before he fully understood it—and why he believes this work matters not only for people facing addiction, but for anyone touched by it.Resources & LinksDoug Hilton: fullcirclehealing.caThailand program: balancerhehab.solutionsBook: The Tao of Addiction and Recovery Tune in to Gateways to Awakening for more conversations with leading thinkers, creators, and spiritual pioneers shaping the future of consciousness.

Tom and Don explore a Yale professor's personalized allocation model, walk through tax-smart strategies for funding a child's car while managing Roth conversions and capital gains, warn about liquidity risks in private credit after restrictions at Blue Owl Capital, explain how to structure IRA withdrawals through disciplined rebalancing, and close by addressing market-timing anxiety for retirees sitting heavily in cash.

In this episode of Excess Returns, Jason Hsu returns for a wide-ranging conversation on China's economy, the global AI race, emerging markets, factor investing, and what the next phase of globalization could mean for U.S. investors. We explore how China's fiercely competitive domestic capitalism contrasts with common Western narratives, why AI could reshape professional services the way globalization reshaped manufacturing, and how investors should think about portfolio allocation in a shifting G2 world.This discussion covers China manufacturing dominance, Chinese EV competition, U.S. vs. China AI strategy, emerging markets investing, factor investing in inefficient markets, and how machine learning is changing quantitative portfolio management.Main topics coveredWhy U.S. investors misunderstand China's economic system and the role of competition inside its domestic marketHow China became the world's manufacturing powerhouse and what that means for tariffs and trade warsThe Chinese government's role as a venture-style capital allocator rather than a central plannerThe real estate reset in China and the shift toward technology, AI, and advanced manufacturingAI as the next wave of globalization and its impact on professional services and labor marketsWhether the U.S. vs. China AI competition is truly winner-take-allCapital expenditure intensity in the U.S. vs. capital efficiency and open-source innovation in ChinaU.S. exceptionalism, G2 geopolitics, and portfolio diversification beyond a U.S.-centric allocationWhy emerging markets ex-China may differ from China tech exposureThe case for separating China from emerging markets in asset allocationThe concept of China as an alpha reservoir due to retail-driven market inefficienciesWhy traditional value and factor strategies have struggled in the U.S. but still work in ChinaHow machine learning and AI are changing quantitative investing and factor constructionThe launch of CNQQ and accessing large-cap China technology exposureTimestamps00:00 China as the world's factory and the role of fierce internal competition01:02 Why U.S. investors misunderstand China's economy03:48 Is China capitalist despite the Communist Party label05:33 The government as a VC-style investor rather than central planner07:45 China EV competition and manufacturing dominance09:23 Tariffs, trade leverage, and manufacturing monopoly dynamics12:18 China's bear market and valuation opportunity13:59 The real estate reset and shift toward productive capital16:00 AI as the next wave of globalization18:01 Labor force participation and economic disruption from AI19:46 Jobs that may survive in an AI-dominated world22:00 Is U.S. vs. China AI a winner-take-all battle24:13 Chip restrictions and long-term innovation incentives26:54 Capital efficiency in China vs. heavy AI capex in the U.S.29:27 Rebalancing away from U.S.-centric portfolios31:18 The end of U.S. exceptionalism and the move toward a G2 world34:00 How endowments approach U.S., developed, and emerging markets36:35 CNQQ and accessing China large-cap technology40:45 China as the great alpha reservoir45:49 The future of factor investing in efficient vs. inefficient markets49:06 Machine learning, factor decay, and next-generation quant strategies55:17 Can AI replace active portfolio managersIf you enjoy deep conversations on global markets, AI investing, China technology, emerging markets, and quantitative strategies, make sure to subscribe to Excess Returns for more interviews with leading investors and thinkers.

In today's episode, we examine the evolving trade arrangement between Taiwan and the United States and what it truly represents beyond the headlines. This is not simply about tariff adjustments or procurement commitments. It reflects a broader shift in the global economic order, where supply chains are increasingly shaped by security considerations rather than pure efficiency. Taiwan's central role in semiconductors and advanced manufacturing places it at the heart of this transformation. We will explore the structural forces that led to this agreement, its immediate macroeconomic implications for Taiwan, and the longer-term strategic trade-offs. Does deeper integration with the United States strengthen Taiwan's economic resilience, or does it gradually reshape the geography of its technological advantage? Let's take a closer look at what this deal really means. 在今天的節目中，我們將探討臺灣與美國之間持續演變的貿易安排，以及它在新聞標題之外所代表的意義。這不只是關於關稅或採購承諾，而是反映全球經濟秩序的轉變——供應鏈的布局越來越受到安全優先考量的影響，而不再僅僅追求效率。臺灣在半導體與先進製造領域的關鍵角色，使其處於這場轉型的核心位置。 本集將分析促成這項協議的結構性因素、對臺灣短期總體經濟的影響，以及長期的戰略意涵。更深入地整合美國市場，究竟能否強化臺灣的經濟穩定性，還是會逐步改變其技術優勢的地理分布？讓我們理性檢視這項協議對臺灣未來發展所釋放的訊號。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

Markets may feel calm despite geopolitical noise, but uncertainty is the permanent condition of investing—and the price of admission for higher returns. Don and Tom unpack Jason Zweig's reminder that investors hate uncertainty (tough), discuss the surge in speculation from leveraged ETFs to prediction markets, and explain why “play money” accounts should stay small. They field listener questions on building an investment policy statement, rebalancing without sabotaging returns, simplifying overly complex ETF portfolios, choosing international small-cap exposure, and setting up custodial accounts (with a nod to Roth IRAs for working teens). The core message: take only the risk you need, not the risk your inner con man wants. 0:00 The podcast that never ends; investors hate uncertainty 1:19 Jason Zweig revisits 2008 and the permanence of market uncertainty 3:16 Calm markets, speculative behavior, and the rise of prediction markets 6:00 “Play money” accounts and the danger of confusing gambling with investing 8:18 Take the risk you need—not the risk you want 9:05 Writing down how you feel during downturns 11:51 Listener question: Rebalancing and creating an Investment Policy Statement 17:09 25-year-old portfolio review: Too much complexity, wrong tilts 20:27 International small-cap choice: AVDV vs. AVDS 23:26 Custodial accounts for teens and the Roth IRA opportunity 26:10 RetireMeet 2026 promotion and event details Learn more about your ad choices.

How should investors react when markets get volatile—and headlines get loud? In this episode of The Market Moment, Matt, John, and Lee break down what volatility really means, why it isn't always a bad thing, and how long-term investors can stay disciplined when fear and greed start creeping in. The conversation covers why volatility is a normal part of investing, how emotional decision-making often causes more damage than market pullbacks, and why “staying the course” only works if your portfolio is built for your true risk tolerance. The team shares real-world examples—from tariff scares to market recoveries—to show how panic selling can cause investors to miss long-term gains. They also explore portfolio rebalancing at market highs, diversification beyond U.S. stocks, and why today's shift from growth to value stocks may actually be a healthy sign for the broader market. From midterm election years to the January Barometer, the episode provides historical context without falling into market-timing traps. Key topics include: ➡️ What market volatility really means (and why it's often misunderstood) ➡️ Fear vs. greed and how emotions impact investment decisions ➡️ Why staying invested matters more than timing the market ➡️ Rebalancing strategies during record market highs ➡️ Risk tolerance vs. risk capacity—knowing what you can truly handle ➡️ Midterm election years and historical market volatility ➡️ Diversifying beyond U.S. equities and across market sectors ➡️ Growth vs. value stocks and signs of a broadening market ➡️ Why ignoring market “noise” is critical for long-term success   The episode wraps with a discussion on market leadership shifting away from the Mag 7, what that means for investors going forward, and why building a portfolio you can stick with—through good markets and bad—is the real key to long-term success.

In this urgent solo episode, Darin breaks down what may be the most dangerous fatal convenience of our time: the digital algorithms quietly hijacking our attention, biology, and sovereignty.

Tom and Don break down why gold, silver, and individual stocks remain speculative distractions rather than reliable investments, using recent volatility in precious metals and Microsoft as cautionary examples. They explain how globally diversified portfolios helped investors stay steady while fear-driven assets whipsawed. The show tackles retirement allocation risks, high-cost target date funds, and how much risk retirees may actually need to take. Listener questions cover 401(a) rollovers, withdrawal strategies, rebalancing after a decade, tax treatment of tips, collective investment trusts, teacher retirement plans, and high-yield savings accounts—reinforcing the case for low costs, broad diversification, and disciplined investing. 0:04 Why gold and silver are speculation, not investments 1:19 Precious metals crash and volatility reality check 3:11 Microsoft drop and risks of single-stock investing 4:40 Fear, home bias, and global diversification 7:12 Birthday story and listener banter 8:31 Elaine's 401(a) and risky target-date fund allocation 11:24 High expense ratios vs. low-cost index options 12:47 Retirement income needs and withdrawal risk 14:04 Monte Carlo results for 60/40 portfolios 15:56 Tips income, taxes, and rebalancing questions 18:03 Standard deduction and real tax impact 23:39 Capital Group CIT vs. Vanguard index funds 25:21 Downsides of collective investment trusts 28:08 403(b)WISE and school district plan ratings 29:55 Teacher retirement plan advocacy 32:32 High-yield savings account recommendations 34:18 Rebalancing after 10 years 35:17 Asset location and tax efficiency Learn more about your ad choices.

How do you build an investment portfolio you can actually stick with—when markets get volatile and when they're ripping higher? In this episode of The Market Moment, Matt, John, and Isaac break down what it really means to build a diversified portfolio that fits your true risk tolerance, not just the one you think you have during a bull market. From fear and greed to rebalancing discipline, the conversation digs into why portfolio construction is harder today than ever—even though access to investing has never been easier. The team shares real-world examples of market drawdowns, investor behavior, and why knowing why you own each investment matters more than chasing performance. They also explore how diversification goes far beyond “stocks vs. bonds,” touching on annuities, international equities, alternatives, commodities, and the recent volatility in gold and silver—and what those moves mean (and don't mean) for long-term investors. Key topics include: ➡️ How to assess your real risk tolerance (and why most investors overestimate it) ➡️ Fear vs. greed and how emotions derail long-term plans ➡️ Why timing the market means being wrong twice ➡️ Rebalancing strategies—and how often is too often ➡️ Stocks vs. bonds vs. annuities: what role each can play ➡️ U.S. vs. international investing and sector diversification ➡️ Alternatives, private markets, and what to watch out for ➡️ Gold and silver volatility—and why perspective matters ➡️ Building a portfolio you can stick with in good times and bad   The episode wraps with a timely discussion on recent moves in precious metals, why big price swings can test investor discipline, and how having a clear investment plan helps cut through the noise.

In this episode of Talking Real Money, Don and Tom dig into the Washington State pension system's heavy exposure to private equity, sparked by Jason Zweig's Wall Street Journal reporting and a Seattle Times investigation. They explain why high fees, opaque valuations, and lack of liquidity make private equity especially dangerous for public retirement funds—and why Washington leads the nation in risk. The conversation expands to compare pension strategies across states, question governance and oversight, and warn retirees about the real-world consequences of excessive risk. Later, the hosts respond to a listener trapped in a high-fee, actively managed portfolio and variable annuity, illustrating how costs and complexity quietly erode wealth. The show wraps with practical retirement guidance inspired by Warren Buffett—simplify and protect—plus a discussion of converting mutual funds to ETFs for greater efficiency. 0:04 Show open, call-in invitation, and setup on private equity 0:32 Jason Zweig's WSJ reporting on private equity fees and markups 1:25 Washington State pension's heavy private equity exposure 3:23 Valuation and liquidity problems in private equity 4:35 Breakdown of WA pension assets (private equity + real estate) 5:18 Risks of market downturns and illiquidity 6:25 Who's overseeing the pension fund and their qualifications 7:06 Concerns for Washington retirees and contributors 8:28 Board “experts” and potential conflicts of interest 9:55 Difficulty exiting private equity investments 11:06 Questioning reported 12.3% returns vs public markets 11:59 Call for political accountability and reform 12:50 Comparison to states using mostly public index funds 13:35 Why private equity suffers most in downturns 14:22 Comparison of pension private equity exposure by state 15:58 Rebalancing and “emperor's clothes” concern 17:07 Caller Luke reacts to pension risks 18:11 Promotion of RetireMeet and retirement education 19:22 Warren Buffett's retirement advice: simplify and protect 20:28 Risk reduction and advisor role in retirement 21:26 Fiduciary standards and conflicts of interest 22:55 Emphasis on simple, protective portfolios 23:07 Caller Jane asks about high advisory fees 24:40 Discussion of “active management” risks 26:12 Review of proposed funds and red flags 29:57 Analysis of high-fee, high-turnover portfolio 30:57 Concentration and volatility concerns 32:16 Variable annuity warning signs 33:37 Commission conflicts and surrender charges 33:57 Recommendation to change advisors 34:56 Recap of excessive fees and risks 36:33 Importance of honest warnings vs future losses 37:48 Question on converting Vanguard mutual funds to ETFs 38:52 Advantages of ETFs: cost, tax efficiency, liquidity Learn more about your ad choices.

This week's show covers sequence of returns risk in early retirement, avoiding RMD mistakes, rebalancing your portfolio in a lofty market, and lots more!

Today's Post - https://bahnsen.co/4toIPdw In this episode of the Dividend Cafe, host David Bahnsen delves into the importance of portfolio rebalancing, a technique that his practice recently undertook with significant impact. Managing approximately $9 billion in client capital, they executed $530 million of buy transactions and $630 million of sell transactions over six trading days. Bahnsen details the benefits of rebalancing as a powerful risk mitigation tool, a potential return enhancer driven by behavioral finance, and an exercise in humility in the face of market unpredictability. He describes the mathematical simplicity of trimming assets back to their target weights and highlights the diversification of asset classes and sectors. Bahnsen underscores how rebalancing helps maintain a balanced risk-reward ratio tailored to the individual investor's goals and tolerance for volatility. Additionally, he addresses the tax implications, arguing that systematic rebalancing reduces the psychological and financial hurdles associated with large capital gains. Ultimately, Bahnsen advocates for rebalancing as a nearly effortless way to optimize a portfolio for both risk and reward. 00:00 Introduction to Dividend Cafe 00:04 The Importance of Rebalancing 01:39 Understanding Rebalancing Mechanics 04:08 Asset Classes and Rebalancing 08:07 Sector Diversification and Rebalancing 12:43 Behavioral Aspects of Rebalancing 19:03 Tax Implications of Rebalancing 21:33 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Links mentioned in this episode: DividendCafe.com TheBahnsenGroup.com

In this podcast episode, experts Angela Weyand and Guy Young discuss their experience using hemostatic rebalancing agents for prophylaxis in patients diagnosed with hemophilia. Three rebalancing agents have now been approved, including concizumab, fitusiran, and marstacimab. These new rebalancing agents target the body's natural anticoagulants and provide individualized, convenient options for patients older than 12 years of age.This podcast explores similarities and differences between the rebalancing agents, such as dosing, necessary lab testing, and safety profiles, that are important to discuss with patients and their caregivers.Presenters:Angela Weyand, MDAssociate Professor, Pediatric Hematology OncologyCo-Director, Combined Hematology/Gynecology ProgramPediatric Medical Director, Hemophilia Treatment CenterUniversity of Michigan Medical SchoolAnn Arbor, MichiganGuy Young, MDDirector, Hemostasis and Thrombosis CenterDirector, Clinical Coagulation LaboratoryCancer and Blood Disease InstituteChildren's Hospital Los AngelesProfessor of PediatricsDivision of Hematology/OncologyDepartment of PediatricsUniversity of Southern California Keck School of MedicineLos Angeles, CaliforniaGet access to all of our new podcasts by subscribing to the CCO Neuroscience Podcast on Apple Podcasts, YouTube Podcasts, or Spotify.

Equal-weighted index funds sound like an elegant solution to some of today's biggest investor anxieties: high market concentration, elevated valuations, and outsized influence from a handful of mega-cap stocks. In this episode of the Rational Reminder Podcast, Ben Felix, Dan Bortolotti, and Ben Wilson take a deep, evidence-based look at whether equal weighting actually improves portfolios—or simply introduces new risks under a different name. The discussion breaks down how equal-weighted indices differ fundamentally from traditional market-cap-weighted indexes, why equal weighting has historically outperformed in certain periods, and what's really driving those results beneath the surface. The team explains how equal weighting tilts portfolios toward smaller, cheaper, and more volatile stocks, while also systematically trading against momentum due to frequent rebalancing. Key Points From This Episode:   (0:01:10) Introduction to Episode 394 and discussion about declining enthusiasm over long podcast runs. (0:02:00) PWL Capital's growing work with institutional clients and why index-based approaches are rare in that space. (0:05:12) Episode topic introduced: equal-weighted index funds and why listeners keep asking about them. (0:06:00) Definition of market-cap-weighted vs. equal-weighted indexes using the S&P 500 as the main example. (0:07:14) Historical outperformance of equal-weighted S&P 500 indexes and why start dates matter. (0:09:00) Equal weight vs. cap weight performance over the last decade: meaningful recent underperformance. (0:10:21) Market concentration concerns and why equal weighting appears attractive during periods of high valuations. (0:12:00) Why market-cap-weighted indexes do not mechanically buy more overvalued stocks as prices rise. (0:16:14) Trading costs explained: explicit vs. implicit costs and why turnover matters more than TER. (0:19:16) Capital gains, tax efficiency, and reporting differences between Canadian and U.S. funds. (0:21:07) Market concentration historically shows little relationship with future returns. (0:24:58) Volatility comparison: equal-weighted indexes are meaningfully more volatile due to small-cap exposure. (0:25:12) Equal weighting increases exposure to small-cap, value, and high-volatility stocks. (0:28:58) Sector distortions created by equal weighting and why this represents uncompensated risk. (0:31:21) Unintended consequences: sector bets, security-level overweights, and forced rebalancing. (0:32:30) Turnover is roughly 10× higher in equal-weighted funds than cap-weighted equivalents. (0:33:15) Equal weighting behaves as a systematic anti-momentum strategy. (0:34:02) Multi-factor regression results: positive size and value exposure, negative momentum loading. (0:36:33) Rebalancing frequency trade-offs and how quarterly rebalancing amplifies momentum drag. (0:42:21) Comparison with alternative approaches that target similar factor exposures more efficiently. (0:44:47) Why backtests are seductive—and why live fund results matter more. (0:47:40) Investor behavior, uncertainty, and the constant search for strategies that "fix" the market. (0:48:41) Factor investing in disguise: most deviations from cap-weighting are just factor tilts. (0:53:06) Equal weighting as an acceptable strategy—if investors understand and accept the trade-offs. (0:57:18) Listener feedback, enthusiasm jokes, and discussion about Spotify video uploads and audio speed.

There is one question underneath almost every message we receive.Is this safe?Is it safe for my child? Is it safe during pregnancy? Is it safe while breastfeeding? Is it safe if I am sick? Is it safe after chemo? Is it safe to keep taking the supplements when my child has an ear infection?My friends, we are asking the wrong question.In this episode, we are going to dive deep into the safety of rebalancing, and just as importantly, the flip side of that conversation, which is what actually happens when we leave bad bacteria, yeast, mold, fungus, parasites, heavy metals, and toxins in the body.Most people who find their way here have tried just about everything. You have likely tried every elimination diet, tried so many different supplements, you've spent hours and hours at appointments with different practitioners hoping someone would finally connect the dots, you've been told to wait it out, you've been told it's normal, you've been told that your child will outgrow it or that your symptom will just go away with time, and you've probably been given medications that suppress your or your child's symptoms but don't actually address the root issue. So of course you're skeptical, because when you've tried so many things and nothing has truly worked, it's easy to start losing hope.I know because I was you. I was in your exact place when I was trying so desperately to heal my son. I remember thinking, if it's really as simple as his gut needing to be rebalanced, why didn't one of the seventeen doctors I took him to tell me about this sooner? And underneath that question was a lot of fear.Rebalancing is not about doing something extreme. It is about giving the body the opportunity to finally reset, regulate, and heal instead of continuing to survive around a problem that will not resolve on its own.Healing is not the risk.Ignoring what the body has been asking for is.Thanks for listening!

Everyone watched Trump at Davos and thought they were seeing American power. We think they were seeing something else: a flashing warning light. The core idea of this podcast is simple: diversification is the oldest rule in investing, and the world has ignored it. We've funnelled a staggering share of global capital into the United States, treating U.S. markets and Treasuries like the default “safe” option. But now, with Trump openly threatening tariffs on anyone who dares to sell U.S. assets, the message is out in the open: America knows capital flight is the real threat. We start with an origin story, Henry Lowenfeld, the overlooked pioneer of diversification, and use it to decode what's happening now: a long-overdue global rebalancing. Then we're joined by financial strategist Sony Kapoor, who makes the case that U.S. assets are increasingly being priced not as a safe haven, but as a political risk, and that a weaker dollar, new hedging demand, and a search for opportunity outside America could reshape markets for a generation.

In this episode, Tyler Emrick, CFA®, CFP®, will revisit the research behind the 4% rule and explore new findings from its creator, Bill Bengen, suggesting that retirees may be able to spend more under updated assumptions. We explain why sequence-of-returns risk matters more than average returns, how thinking in terms of portfolio “runway” can help manage downturns, and why dynamic withdrawal strategies often lead to better long-term outcomes. If you're wondering how much you can realistically spend in retirement, this episode will help you think about it the right way. Here's some of what we discuss in this episode:

David Bach joins Steve Chen to discuss the evolution of The Automatic Millionaire and his newest idea, the IRA Flat Tax, which aims to rethink how Americans use their retirement savings. Bach explains that decades of automation have helped millions accumulate wealth, but most retirees now delay spending their money until required minimum distributions, leaving trillions of dollars idle. He proposes a limited window allowing early retirement withdrawals at a flat tax rate to encourage spending, improve retiree quality of life, and stimulate the economy. The conversation also explores the difficulty of shifting from saving to spending, the importance of enjoying wealth while health allows, and how AI is reshaping financial planning without replacing the need for human guidance, reinforcing Bach's long-held belief that money is ultimately a tool to support a better life.

It all matters and it's important for you to be able to recognize and adjust so that you can get the most out of your sessions or simply get off the couch. We look at different signs in swimming, cycling, and running that show fatigue and sort of look at the "seriousness" of each and how to roll right through it.

In this eye-opening episode of The Health and Wellness Coach Journal Podcast, Dr. Jessica Singh speaks with Dr. William Davis, a cardiologist and New York Times bestselling author of Wheat Belly, Wheat Belly Cookbook, Wheat Belly 30-Minutes (or Less!) Cookbook, and Wheat Belly Total Health, as well as Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox, Undoctored, and Super Gut. His newest book, Super Body: A 3-Week Program to Harness the New Science of Body Composition and Restore Your Youthful Contours, explores emerging science on body composition, the microbiome, and long-term metabolic health. Dr. Davis shares how his work as a cardiologist—and a personal turning point—led him to reexamine conventional approaches to heart disease risk. He discusses why wheat and sugar contribute to metabolic changes that negatively affect whole-body health. The discussion moves beyond diet to explore why removing harmful foods may only be the beginning. Dr. Davis explains how antibiotics, numerous medications, modern food, environmental exposures, chronic stress, and disrupted sleep deplete protective microbes, impacting various aspects of health. This episode also explores microbiome implications for women's and maternal health, infant development, SIBO, and the relationship between stress, sleep, circadian rhythm, and the gut–brain axis. Dr. Davis offers practical guidance for coaches and healthcare providers seeking credible, evidence-informed microbiome resources. Together, Dr. Singh and Dr. Davis discuss the education gap in medicine—particularly around nutrition and the microbiome—and why clinicians often need to expand beyond traditional training to support prevention and long-term healing. This conversation is a call to rethink prevention and recognize that rebuilding the microbiome is a powerful way to reclaim agency and improve health.

On Jesse's 12th "Ask Me Anything" episode, he opens the year by tackling the questions that tend to surface when calendars turn and retirement feels closer than ever. He begins with a thoughtful exploration of whether "this is the year to retire," unpacking how sequence-of-returns risk, market valuations, spending accuracy, and portfolio construction matter far more than trying to guess the next market move, and why building flexibility—not perfect timing—is the real defense against early-retirement risk. From there, Jesse shifts to a practical and surprisingly nuanced discussion on getting kids and grandkids started in investing, weighing Roth IRAs, custodial accounts, and taxable strategies while emphasizing the twin lessons of earned money and compounding—and how to balance long-term discipline with making investing engaging and educational. He then addresses how portfolios should evolve as investors age and as assets grow, explaining why the glide path toward retirement is as much about risk capacity, risk need, and behavioral fit as it is about age, and why excess capital fundamentally changes how—and why—you take risk. He closes with a comprehensive walk through the key ages and milestones that shape a financial plan, from early adulthood to Social Security, Medicare, and required minimum distributions, giving listeners a clear mental map of when critical doors open and close. Throughout, Jesse blends technical insight with behavioral clarity, helping listeners not just answer financial questions, but build a durable way of thinking about decisions that will compound for decades. Key Takeaways:• The decision to retire is less about predicting markets and more about understanding cash flow, spending flexibility, and downside protection in the early years. • Writing down the rationale behind major investment decisions helps reduce future regret and emotional reactions. • Many retirees underestimate their spending, which can create false confidence in retirement readiness. • Teaching kids about investing works best when it combines earned income, parental matching, and simple, long-term strategies. • Excess capital changes the nature of investment decisions, allowing greater freedom without jeopardizing core goals. • Knowing the key financial ages—Social Security, Medicare, Roth rules, and required minimum distributions—helps investors anticipate decisions rather than react under pressure.

With Tom on vacation and an eerily convincing AI stand-in holding down the mic, Don kicks off 2026 by tackling one of the most persistent listener questions: how to actually find a true fiduciary—and how to eliminate salespeople fast. Using FINRA's BrokerCheck as a simple filter, the show explains why the “B” matters, why dual-registered advisors are still a risk, and how complexity is often a red flag. From there, the conversation dives into the rise of RILAs (registered index-linked annuities), why their shiny back-tested returns don't mean much, and how simpler balanced portfolios often do better with far less risk and confusion. Along the way, the hosts cover podcast reviews, investing in bourbon barrels (don't), Roth IRAs for teenagers (do), and close with Tom's five timeless investing rules for 2026: go global, simplify, define risk, rebalance, and understand your taxes. 0:04 New year, Tom on vacation, and the rise of AI Tom 0:22 AI voices, joke quality, and job security jokes 2:20 Welcome and the show's core mission 2:46 How to actually find a real fiduciary 3:30 BrokerCheck explained and why the “B” is a deal-breaker 5:24 Firm searches and fast advisor elimination 6:38 Why dual registration still isn't fiduciary 7:22 RILAs introduced and why “index-linked” is a warning sign 9:38 Hypothetical returns and misleading back-testing 11:19 Balanced index funds vs annuity complexity 13:00 Why RILAs solve no real investor problem 14:08 How to leave podcast reviews (and where) 15:22 Apple vs Spotify reviews and ratings reality 17:34 Ratings, trolls, and thin-skinned hosts 20:07 Tom's five investing rules for 2026 20:41 Go global—actually global 21:56 Fewer accounts, less mess 22:49 Know your risk before the market teaches you 23:50 Rebalancing after strong stock years 24:38 Understanding taxes by account type 27:33 Bourbon barrel investing pitch—hard pass 29:13 Custody risk and private-investment danger 31:35 No sales guests, ever 33:54 Roth IRAs for working teens 34:35 RetireMeet 2026 announcement Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode dismantles the idea that successful investing comes from finding the next hot thing. Instead, Don and Tom argue that good portfolios are built by eliminating what doesn't belong: actively managed funds, sector ETFs, alternatives, high-yield bonds, gold, and other distractions that add complexity without purpose. Drawing on a Morningstar column by Amy Arnott, they reinforce that most investing mistakes come from chasing performance rather than embracing simplicity and discipline. The show also tackles listener questions on retirement “bucket” strategies, rebalancing timing, Dimensional fund structure, and annuities—emphasizing that bonds exist for stability, cash should be limited and intentional, and any strategy must be personal, rules-based, and boring enough to actually work. 0:04 Opening banter, Apple censoring Tom's name, and the beige pudding world 1:12 Bitcoin critics, one-star reviews, and a bad 2025 for crypto 2:03 Core idea: good investing is about elimination, not prediction 2:56 Amy Arnott and the case against active management 4:07 Why past winners usually become future losers 5:28 REITs, once useful, now mostly redundant 6:01 Sector funds as performance-chasing traps 8:19 Alternatives, I Bonds, and junk bonds—complexity without payoff 10:04 Bonds explained properly: stability, not income or excitement 11:14 Gold (and Bitcoin) as non-productive speculation 13:21 Simplify first and portfolios become easier—and calmer 15:05 Retirement bucket strategy: where it helps and where it hurts 18:48 Cash as an emergency tool, not a long-term holding 21:04 MYGA annuities, safety trade-offs, and insurer risk 29:04 Insurance failures as cautionary history 31:04 DFAW explained: Core Equity 1 vs Core Equity 2 35:53 Rebalancing discipline: timing beats tinkering 39:11 Final reminder: stop watching your portfolio so much Learn more about your ad choices.

Cancer Full Moon • January 3, 2026 This Cancer Full Moon brings a powerful culmination and emotional reckoning as the Moon in Cancer opposes the Sun in Capricorn. This lunation highlights the polarity between care and control, nourishment and authority, feeling and responsibility. The Moon is strong in her home sign and conjunct Sirius, the spiritual Sun, heightening intuition, emotional truth, and higher guidance. Within hours, the Moon joins Jupiter in Cancer, amplifying compassion, emotional wisdom, and the potential for healing. Opposite the Moon, a rare Capricorn stellium—the Sun conjunct Mars and Venus, alongside Quaoar and Pholus—marks a rebalancing of divine masculine and feminine energies and reveals tipping points where small choices carry lasting consequences. A Cardinal Grand Cross, involving Salacia in Aries and Makemake in Libra, brings urgency, initiation, and the call to act differently. Meanwhile, Uranus conjunct Algol and Sedna exposes illusion, deception, and outdated survival patterns. This Full Moon invites emotional honesty, sovereign care, and the courage to integrate power with tenderness—personally and collectively.

Our Chief Cross-Asset Strategist Serena Tang discusses how current market conditions are challenging traditional investment strategies and what that means for asset allocation.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Serena Tang, Morgan Stanley's Chief Cross-Asset Strategist.Today – does the 60/40 portfolio still make sense, and what can investors expect from long-term market returns?It's Monday, December 22nd at 10am in New York.Global equities have rallied by more than 35 percent from lows made in April. And U.S. high grade fixed income has seen the last 12 months' returns reach 5 percent, above the averages over the last 10 years. This raises important questions about future returns and how investors might want to adapt their portfolios.Now, our work shows that long-run expected returns for equities are lower than in previous decades, while fixed income – think government bonds and corporate bonds – still offers relatively elevated returns, thanks to higher yields.Let's put some numbers to it. Over the next decade, we project global equities to deliver an annualized return of nearly 7 percent, with the S&P 500 just behind at 6.8 percent. European and Japanese equities stand out, potentially returning about 8 percent. Emerging markets, however, lag at just about 4 percent. On the bond side, we think U.S. Treasuries with a 10-year maturity will return nearly 5 percent per year, German Bunds nearly 4 [percent], and Japanese government bonds nearly 2 [percent]. They may sound low, but it's all above their long-run averages.But here's where it gets interesting. The extra return you get for taking on risk – what we call the risk premium – has compressed across the board. In the U.S., the equity risk premium is just 2 percent. And for emerging markets, it's actually negative at around -1 percent. In very plain terms, investors aren't being paid as much for taking on risk as they used to be.Now, why is this the case? It's because valuations are rich, especially in the U.S. But we also need to put these valuations in context. Yes, the S&P 500's cyclically adjusted price-to-earnings ratio is near the highest level since the dotcom bubble. But the quality of the S&P 500 has improved dramatically over the past few decades. Companies are more profitable, and free cash flow -- money left after expenses -- is almost three times higher than it was in 2000. So, while valuations are rich, there's some justification for it.The lower risk premiums for stocks and credits, regardless of whether we think they are justified or not, has very interesting read across for investors' multi-asset portfolios. The efficient frontier – meaning the best possible return for any given level of portfolio risk – has shifted. It's now flatter and lower than in previous years. So, it means taking on more risk in a portfolio right now won't necessarily boost returns as much as before.Now, let's turn our attention to the classic 60/40 portfolio – the mix of 60 percent stocks and 40 percent bonds that's been a staple strategy for generations. After a tough 2022, this strategy has bounced back, delivering above-average returns for three years in a row. Looking ahead, though, we expect only around 6 percent annual returns for a 60/40 portfolio over the next decade versus around 9 percent average return historically. Importantly though, advances in AI could keep stocks and bonds moving more in sync than they used to be. If that happens, investors might benefit from increasing their equity allocation beyond the traditional 60/40 split.Either way, it's important to realize that the optimal mix of stocks and bonds is not static and should be revisited as market dynamics evolve.In a world where risk assets feel expensive and the old rules don't quite fit, it's essential to understand how risk, return, and correlation work together. This will help you navigate the next decade. The 60/40 portfolio isn't dead – and optimal multi-asset allocation weights are evolving. And so should you.Thanks for listening.
