Podcasts about risk off

You need help to grow. You can't keep doing every part of this yourself and expect the team to get bigger. But every time you bring up a recruiter or a dialer, the conversation stalls, and you walk out with a no, or a maybe that quietly dies. Here's what I want you to walk away with today. You don't earn a yes by asking for help. You earn it by walking in like an owner with a business case and the math behind it. I'll give you a five-move framework I call Making the Case Like an Owner, so you flip that conversation for good. Episode Breakdown [00:01:13] The Tale of Two Leaders Two leaders walk into the same executive's office in the same month. Both are buried, both want help. The first sits down and asks like an employee asking for a favor, says he's drowning and can't keep up, can he please get a recruiter. What the executive hears is an expense and a complaint, cost with nothing on the other side of it, so the answer is some version of not right now. The second leader carries something different. He doesn't ask for relief, he lays out an investment, the cost, the return, and ties it straight to the growth number the company already set. Same request, same executive, two completely different outcomes. The money was rarely the real obstacle. The framing was. [00:02:10] Move 1: Lead With the Math Walk in with numbers instead of feelings. A real recruiter right now runs somewhere around a $50,000 to $55,000 base with another $35,000 to $45,000 in bonus tied to appointments set and hires made. Now your executive is holding a clear picture, a known cost with most of the upside riding on results. [00:02:38] Move 2: Connect It to the Company's Growth Executives fund growth, not comfort. If leadership set a growth number for the year, tie this hire straight to that number, so you're not asking for help, you're showing them how the goal they set gets hit. And there's a deeper version worth saying out loud. The data shows the overwhelming majority of new producers join because of the leader, not the company brand and not the corporate platform. That makes you and your capacity to recruit the highest-return investment the company can make, and a recruiter or a dialer is simply how they protect that investment. [00:03:23] Move 3: Take the Risk Off the Table A lot of these asks die because the executive pictures a big fixed cost with no floor under it. So remove the fear. Load most of the comp onto results, appointments set and hires made, so the money follows the value instead of leading it. And the timing is on your side. The recruiter talent pool is unusually deep right now, with early-career recruiters getting pushed out of other industries by AI. One leader I coached ran a single ad and pulled more than 370 applicants in two days. You can be choosy in a way you couldn't be a few years ago, and that lowers the risk again. [00:04:09] Move 4: Put a Price on Your Own Hours This is the number leaders forget to bring, and it's the biggest one. Your time. Every time you get yanked off the phones to put out a fire, it costs about 20 minutes just to climb back into focus, and across a normal week of interruptions, that's hours of the work only you can do gone. A recruiter or a dialer isn't a cost. It's you buying back the hours that turn into hires. Name that number, and the investment starts arguing for itself. [00:04:45] Move 5: Close With Proof Land the whole case on evidence. I coached a leader who built his recruiting engine the right way, and in 90 days he hired 18 producers who fit his avatar, then 7 more the next month, which added roughly $100 million in annualized volume. You're not asking your executive to gamble on a hunch. You're pointing at a path other leaders have already walked. [00:05:15] Why It Works Executives say yes to returns, not to needs. The moment you stop presenting a cost and start presenting an investment with a number beside it, you're speaking the one language a decision maker buys in. Taking the risk off the table works because most no's aren't really no, they're a fear of a fixed cost with no floor, and a results-based structure quietly dissolves that fear. And proof closes the gap the same way it does in recruiting. A decision maker can argue with your projection all day long, but they can't argue with a result somebody has already produced. [00:05:55] Your Small Win Tonight Write one sentence. If I get this recruiter or this dialer, here's the return in hires and in volume over the next twelve months. One clean sentence that sets a return right next to the cost. Because if you can't say that sentence out loud yet, you aren't ready for the meeting, and now you know exactly what to go build. [00:06:23] Three Bigger Moves This Week Build the comp plan, a base plus a results-based bonus on appointments set and hires made, because that structure protects the company on the downside and signals the role is built to pay for itself. Do the time math, counting the hours you lose every week to interruptions and putting a dollar figure on them, which reframes the whole conversation from an expense into you reclaiming the hours that build the team. Then pull one proof point, yours or from the industry, of a recruiting engine that produced real hires and real volume, because proof lifts the risk off your executive's shoulders, and a decision with the risk removed is a yes. Key Takeaways You don't earn a yes by asking for help. You earn it by walking in like an owner with a business case and the math behind it. The money is rarely the real obstacle. The framing is. Executives fund growth, not comfort, so tie the ask straight to the growth number leadership already set. Most producers join because of the leader, not the brand, which makes your capacity to recruit the highest-return investment the company can make. Most no's aren't really no. They're a fear of a fixed cost with no floor, and a results-based comp structure dissolves that fear. Your time is the number leaders forget to bring. A recruiter or a dialer isn't a cost, it's buying back the hours that turn into hires. A decision maker can argue with your projection all day, but they can't argue with a result somebody has already produced.

What if the most loving thing you could do for someone is start a conversation you've been avoiding?In this episode, Michael Reddington sits down with Cory Fosco, a 34-year veteran of the eldercare and healthcare technology industries, author of The Question of When, creative writing teacher, and VP of Enterprise Sales. Cory brings a rare combination of frontline caregiving experience, social work roots, and sales leadership perspective to one of the most universally avoided topics in family life: planning for the care of aging loved ones before a crisis forces your hand.This conversation goes far beyond eldercare. Cory unpacks why denial and guilt keep families frozen, how the fear of messing up drives worse decisions than the fear of missing out, and why having a conversation is fundamentally different from making a decision. The parallels to sales, leadership, and any high-stakes relationship are impossible to miss.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy waiting for the "right time" to have a care conversation is itself the mistakeHow families that do the homework in advance make better decisions under crisis pressureThe difference between "fear of missing out" and "fear of messing up" and how it shows up in caregiving and salesWhy expressing love through preparation changes how families approach difficult conversationsHow having a conversation and making a decision are not the same thing -- and why that distinction mattersWhat the "When Readiness Checklist" is and how to use it to assess where your family standsWhy "it's better to do right than to be right" applies equally to caregiving, leadership, and salesHow to give people around you permission to make mistakes by modeling it yourselfChapters(00:00) Introduction to Cory Fosco and A Question of When(05:05) Why Families Wait Too Long to Have the Conversation(07:28) How We Compensate and Make Excuses for Loved Ones(10:57) How to Optimize Preparation Time and Remove Stress From Big Decisions(14:18) The Fear of Messing Up and How to Take the Risk Off the Table(24:00) Listening as the Foundation of Caregiving, Sales, and Leadership(27:39) Why It's Better to Do Right Than to Be Right(33:13) How the Book Is Structured to Meet Families Where They Are(50:21) Core Principles for Navigating Difficult Family Conversations(52:31) How to Find Cory and Access His ResourcesAbout the GuestCory Fosco has spent over 34 years working at the intersection of long-term care, healthcare technology, and family decision-making.

Mike and Luke discuss current Hog Market news

Last week's market rally was driven by ceasefire optimism and a sharp drop in oil prices, lifting equities despite growing signs of economic strain and energy‑led inflation pressures, although US core inflation in March (excluding energy) remained contained. Over the weekend, geopolitical risks moved back to centre stage as failed US–Iran talks and an effective embargo on Iranian oil pushed energy prices higher, shifting markets into a cautious risk‑off stance. The earnings season begins in earnest today, with results set to test whether corporate profits can withstand rising costs and heightened uncertainty. Notable companies reporting today include LVMH and Goldman Sachs. Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis, highlights an improvement in market breadth in US equities, and explains why semiconductor stocks are in favour.(00:00) - Introduction: Bernadette Anderko, Product & Investment Content (00:41) - Markets wrap-up: Mike Rauber, Product & Investment Content (06:39) - Technical Analysis update: Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis (08:52) - Closing remarks: Bernadette Anderko, Product & Investment Content Would you like to support this show?

Market Volatility, Oil Prices, and Why Dividend Income Matters More Than Ever for Retirement If your portfolio has felt like a rollercoaster lately, you’re not imagining it. On this week’s episode of The Financial Hour of The Tom Dupree Show, Tom Dupree, Mike Johnson, and James Dupree broke down exactly what’s driving the current market volatility — from rising oil prices and the Strait of Hormuz conflict to the ongoing selloff in mega-cap tech stocks — and what it all means for people in retirement or getting close to it. If you hold an S&P 500 index fund, a 401(k) you haven’t looked at in a while, or a portfolio heavy in growth stocks, this episode was a wake-up call worth heeding. What’s Actually Driving the Market Selloff? The team pointed to a clear culprit: the conflict in the Middle East and its impact on oil prices flowing through the Strait of Hormuz — one of the world’s most critical shipping chokepoints. But as Mike Johnson explained, the real danger isn’t the catalyst itself. It’s the chain reaction it sets off. “You always have a catalyst that sets things in motion,” Mike said. “What kind of kills a bull market isn’t that catalyst — it’s what other links in the chain start breaking along the way.” At the time of recording, the major indices were deep in negative territory for the year. The S&P 500 was down roughly 6%, the Dow around 5%, the NASDAQ — which is heavily weighted toward tech — had touched correction territory at nearly 10% off its October all-time high, while the Russell 2000 was holding slightly positive year to date. The Dow was heading toward its fifth consecutive negative week. James Dupree shared insight from prediction markets, noting that the probability of the Iran conflict resolving by late May was around 49%, rising to 67% by early June. “They probably have AI bots surfing the internet literally every second of every day for new information,” James noted — meaning those markets are likely pricing in information as fast as it becomes available. Why the “Mag Seven” Are Getting Sold Off Hard One of the more striking themes of the episode was the unraveling of the mega-cap tech trade — the so-called “Magnificent Seven” stocks that dominated portfolios and headlines for much of the past few years. During COVID, these companies were treated as safe havens, and money flowed into them almost reflexively. That dynamic is now reversing. Tom, Mike, and James discussed how stocks like Meta and Microsoft are facing a new kind of pressure: investors questioning whether the enormous capital being deployed into AI is actually going to produce returns. Meta dropped 8% in one session over a $3 million social media liability ruling — not because of the dollar amount, but because of the precedent it sets. Microsoft faces its own questions about whether its Copilot AI product can hold its ground against faster-moving competitors. “The market’s pricing in that the money’s not gonna do anything essentially,” James said about the AI spending at these companies. As a point of contrast, Tom brought up Berkshire Hathaway, which is sitting on $373 billion in cash and hasn’t been pressured into making AI bets: “They’re not backed into the corner and they’re not giving into the pressure.” For retirement investors, FINRA notes that market-cap weighted index funds like the S&P 500 concentrate risk heavily in their largest holdings — meaning when those top companies fall, the whole fund feels it disproportionately. What a “Risk-Off” Market Means for Your Retirement Portfolio The phrase Tom and Mike returned to repeatedly was “risk off” — meaning investors are retreating from anything speculative and moving toward cash. James described the speculative end of the market as a “bloodbath,” while Mike noted that even gold, typically a safe haven, had sold off about 13% in the preceding month. Tom offered a pointed observation from a trip to Costco: “What I saw at Costco yesterday looked recessionary. That’s what it looked like.” Lower foot traffic and quieter gas pumps were his on-the-ground read of where consumer confidence may be heading. There’s also growing concern about stagflation — a combination of slow economic growth and persistent inflation — as oil prices push up costs across the economy while spending slows. Bureau of Labor Statistics CPI data will be a key indicator to watch in the coming months. Key takeaways on navigating a risk-off environment: Speculative assets with no earnings are getting hit the hardest — and fast Even dividend-paying stocks can drop in price during a “sell everything” market But the income those dividend stocks produce doesn’t stop — you still receive your dividend per share regardless of the price movement Institutional investors don’t want to hold volatile positions over the weekend, which amplifies end-of-week selling pressure Extreme selling can create buying opportunities — historically, capitulation signals a market floor The Case for Dividend Income in Retirement: What the Numbers Are Showing This is where the episode’s real takeaway landed for anyone in retirement or approaching it. While the S&P 500 and NASDAQ have been grinding lower, dividend-focused and value-oriented holdings have been holding their ground — and in some cases outperforming significantly. Mike explained it plainly: “The amount of income you get from that asset isn’t gonna change. That’s why it’s so valuable to own dividend stocks in retirement — ’cause even if the price goes down, you’re still gonna get X dollars per share.” This matters enormously for retirees because of what financial planners call sequence of returns risk — the danger that a sharp market decline early in retirement can permanently damage your portfolio’s ability to sustain withdrawals, even if the market eventually recovers. A dividend-oriented approach helps insulate against that risk because income continues flowing even when prices fall. Fidelity research cited on the show found that two-thirds of Gen X workers don’t believe their retirement savings will last through their lifetime. Tom connected that anxiety directly to how most 401(k) plans are invested: in the S&P 500, in target-date funds, and in structures where the investor has no real understanding of what they own or why. “When the flip side happens, that’s what shakes people,” Tom said. “They’re not in the business of looking at why — all they care about is will what I have last and produce for me for the rest of my life.” If you’re thinking about whether your current holdings — in a 401(k) from an old employer, a rollover IRA, or a brokerage account — are built to generate income rather than just chase growth, that’s a conversation worth having. Our investment philosophy is built around exactly this question. What Dupree Financial Group Is Doing Right Now Tom was direct about how their portfolios are positioned and why clients aren’t calling in a panic. “We haven’t had clients calling and saying, ‘What’s going on with my portfolio?’ That has not been happening.” He attributed that to a clear, consistently communicated plan — one centered on income, individual dividend-paying companies, and an understanding of what each holding is and why it’s there. The team has a small, carefully sized position in optical/photonics technology stocks tied to AI infrastructure — James and Mike have been researching the space — but Tom was quick to keep it in perspective: “Unless you think we’re a tech investor, that’s only a small part of our portfolio. Maybe a half a percent of the whole portfolio.” The contrast with a mass-market approach is stark. At Dupree Financial Group, clients hold separately managed accounts with individual stock ownership — not a mutual fund package or a target-date fund that mechanically adjusts based on your birth year. You know what you own. That understanding is precisely what keeps clients calm when markets get choppy. Unlike large national firms where you may be assigned an investment counselor you’ve never met, working with a local portfolio management team means you have direct access to the people making decisions about your money. That matters when markets move fast. Frequently Asked Questions How do oil prices affect my retirement portfolio? Rising oil prices push up inflation across the economy, which can reduce consumer spending, pressure corporate earnings, and lead to broader market declines. For retirees living on fixed withdrawals, both higher costs of living and portfolio drawdowns at the same time can be particularly damaging — which is why income-generating investments are especially important during periods of oil price volatility. Should I sell my stocks during a market downturn? Selling during a downturn locks in losses and removes you from any recovery. The more important question is whether your portfolio is positioned to generate income regardless of price movements. If you own dividend-paying stocks, your income continues even when prices fall. If you’re holding growth stocks or index funds concentrated in high-multiple tech names, a downturn hits harder and offers less cushion. What is “sequence of returns risk” and why does it matter in retirement? Sequence of returns risk is the danger that a market decline early in your retirement — when you’re beginning to withdraw funds — can permanently impair your portfolio’s longevity, even if the market recovers. A portfolio built around dividend income reduces this risk because you’re drawing on cash flow rather than selling shares at depressed prices. Is the S&P 500 a good retirement investment? The S&P 500 can be a strong long-term growth vehicle, but it carries concentration risk — its returns are heavily influenced by its largest holdings, currently tech-heavy mega-cap stocks. In years when those companies underperform, as in 2025, the index underperforms significantly. Equal-weighted versions have held up better this year, but most 401(k) plans don’t offer that option. A dividend-focused separately managed account can provide a more stable income stream. How do I know if my 401(k) will last through retirement?

Jimmy Lee thinks it's “risk off” all around between the Iran conflict, AI spending concerns, and private credit worries. However, he still thinks it can be a good year for markets. He's more concerned about jobs than inflation and wants the Fed to cut rates. After the market hits a bottom, he likes cyclicals and several other sectors, anticipating a bullish recovery.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

In this episode of the Market and Economic Wrap, Tumisho Grater, Multi-Manager Investment Analyst at Nedgroup Investments, unpacks a sharp U-turn in global markets following a sudden easing in geopolitical tensions. From the relief rally sparked by shifting rhetoric between the US and Iran, to dramatic moves in commodities, currencies and equities, the episode explores what's driving recent volatility. The discussion also looks ahead to key monetary policy decisions, including the US Federal Reserve's cautious stance and the South African Reserve Bank's upcoming MPC meeting, asking a critical question: is this rally built to last, or is it simply another headline-driven reprieve?

The war in Iran has taken on new levels of concern after Israeli and Iranian attacks on gas production infrastructure in Iran and Qatar, respectively, with the dispersion of global energy prices exploding further on the news. Elsewhere, the central bank cavalcade continues with the Bank of Japan helping USDJPY steer away from new highs. The gold sell-off has suddenly accelerated and there are some compelling narratives and reasons for it to continue lower if these are important drivers. This and much more on today's pod, which is hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy. Links First the link to Michael McNair X post outlining the big structural shift in what powers gold and why it is under pressure and could remain so here. Then, the latest Goehring & Rozencwajg long-form report on commodities with great coverage of the scale of disruption from the Hormuz Strait closure, some long term historical perspectives on commodities and whether they are too cheap and lots more. Simple registry required to download. Important - following link is highly speculative and I am not endorsing the views, but it's one possible lens for how the situation is playing out. Finally, a massive tweet thread from shipping industry executive John Konrad on how the US may be leveraging this situation to further its strategy of regaining more control over global shipping routes and even ships themselves, together with other possible domestic agendas.  About twice per week, you will also find links discussed on the podcast and a chart-of-the-day over at the John J.

Global money market funds just hit a record $8.24 trillion in assets — 65% above the COVID-era peak of $5 trillion. This month's Bank of America Global Fund Manager Survey recorded the single largest jump in cash allocations since March 2020. So what's driving it?In this episode, we break down the three forces behind the fastest institutional rotation to cash since the pandemic: the U.S.-Israel war on Iran and its impact on oil markets, a stagflation repricing that shifted consensus in 60 days, and private credit systemic risk that 63% of fund managers now consider the most likely source of the next credit event.KEY DATA REFERENCED→ BofA Global Fund Manager Survey, March 2026 — 210 managers, $589B AUM→ ICI / Crane Data — MMF assets $8.24T (Feb 2026)→ Brent crude: $70 → $102 in under three weeks→ Berkshire Hathaway cash: $381.7B — an all-time record→ Shiller CAPE ratio: 39.42x — only exceeded during the dot-com peak→ Private credit flagged as top systemic risk for 8 consecutive monthsSOURCESBank of America Global Research | ICI | Crane Data | IEA | Bloomberg | CNBC | Al Jazeera | Oxford Economics | World Economic Forum | IATA | AAA | FREDLINKSPrashant Choubey - ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/choubeysahab⁠Subscribe to VC10X newsletter - ⁠https://vc10x.beehiiv.com⁠Subscribe on YouTube - ⁠https://youtube.com/@VC10X ⁠Subscribe on Apple Podcasts - ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/vc10x-investing-venture-capital-asset-management-private/id1632806986⁠Subscribe on Spotify - ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/7F7KEhXNhTx1bKTBFgzv3k?si=WgQ4ozMiQJ-6nowj6wBgqQ⁠VC10X website - ⁠https://vc10x.com⁠For sponsorship queries reach out to prashantchoubey3@gmail.comSUBSCRIBE FOR MOREVC10X breaks down the most important stories in finance, tech, and markets every week.

Yesterday's positive close on the US equity market was a head scratcher and we try to put together a set of reasons how it was possible as we quickly yielded to a fresh round of deep risk off in Asia and Europe overnight and into this morning.

Gold markiert Rekorde, während Aktien unter Druck geraten – besonders Software-Werte, die zusätzlich durch KI‑Disruption und Finanzierungsfragen belastet sind. Der Nahostkonflikt, steigende Öl‑ und Gaspreise und die hohe Unsicherheit treiben die Märkte in den Risk‑off‑Modus. Wie sollten sich Anleger jetzt positionieren? Das analysieren Dr. Ulrich Stephan, Chefanlagestratege für Privat- und Firmenkunden der Deutschen Bank, und Finanzjournalistin Jessica Schwarzer in der aktuellen Folge ihres Börsenpodcasts.

Werbung | 52 Wochen Handelsblatt mit 40 % Rabatt: Gedruckt oder digital - jetzt sichern unter www.handelsblatt.com/wissen2026 US-Futures rutschen am Freitag nach einem klar schwächeren BIP-Print: Q4 nur +1,4% statt erwarteter +2,5% – der Markt preist damit wieder stärker „Fed muss unterstützen“. Der PCE-Inflationsreport nimmt etwas Druck raus: Core PCE liegt bei 3% und damit im Rahmen – trotzdem bleibt Inflation oberhalb des 2%-Ziels, und die Fed-Minutes zeigen: einige wollen erst mehr Disinflations-Belege sehen. Zusätzlicher Katalysator ist ein mögliches Supreme-Court-Urteil zu Trumps IEEPA-Zöllen – viele an der Wall Street erwarten einen positiven Move, falls die Zölle gekippt werden. Gleichzeitig bleibt Geopolitik ein Störfaktor: Trump spricht von einer Entscheidung über mögliche Iran-Schläge binnen 10 Tagen, Öl handelt nahe 6-Monats-Hochs. Im Hintergrund sorgt Blue Owl für Stress im Private-Credit-Segment: Rücknahmen werden dauerhaft eingeschränkt, nach dem Verkauf von $1,4 Mrd. an Kredit-Assets – „Canary in the coal mine“, sagen Kritiker. Kurz: Wachstum kühlt stärker ab, Inflation bleibt zäh – und der Markt wartet auf den nächsten Trigger: SCOTUS und nächste Woche Nvidia-Zahlen.

Plus, Robbie sits down with Phoenix Burst's Tela Mathias for a discussion on the latest innovations in the mortgage space and how it is people rather than technology that is driving the pace of change in the industry.

Wild week for precious metals: despite violent intraday swings, gold still closed up ~2.2% around $4,080 and silver up ~4.7% above $50—with silver briefly tagging $54+ overnight. The key: $4,000 is acting as gold's new floor (just like $3,000 became the new $2,000), and $50 is emerging as support for silver. Meanwhile, risk is coming off across markets: NASDAQ down ~4–5%, Treasuries selling (yields up), and crypto cracked back below 100K. Capital is rotating toward real safe havens and cash-generating miners. In this wrap: Asian session buying vs U.S. session selling, why the biggest drops happen late-week, how Fed indecision + sticky inflation support metals, and why policy gimmicks (tariff “dividends,” selective tariff cuts, attacks on producers, mortgage backstops) are bullish for gold in the real world. I also cover gap-up risk into Sunday night/Monday, and why the miners' earnings torque is still being mispriced.

The Risk-Off trade has taken over bringing the pain to the biggest and most widely held stocks in the market proving, as the legendary Jimmy Cliff sang, “ The harder they come, the harder they fall.” Is this just a grown up bull market pit stop, or a full risk-reversal that could lead to a major resetting of valuations for the stock and crypto markets? Dan Nathan of Risk Reversal helps us navigate the rip tides of this recent swell of volatility.

Heading into 2026, Dena says valuations will continue to be elevated and adds that private equity is sitting on "record amounts of dry powder" ready to be put to work.

Liz Peek Liz Peek discusses the "AI bubble," noting the Magnificent Seven stocks are priced to perfection amidst concerns that massive investments may not yield adequate returns, observes that although the market is "risk off" the US economy seems "okay" according to data points, and expresses alarm about New York Mayor-Elect Mamdani, a socialist without management expertise who is surrounding himself with ideologues, including Hassan Sheheryar, his transition director, who is "clearly anti-Semitic" and anti-Israel, raising significant concerns for the city.E

Today, we note that the market's stabilization attempt from Friday seems to have failed as risk-off has gone global in equities, perhaps led by the meltdown in Bitcoin. Amidst the deepening unease, it's remarkable that bond markets, with the notable exception of Japan, remain calm, while transmission into FX is minimal. But the tension is building, with a key event risk on Friday for Japan possibly set to unleash volatility.

There are numerous risk-off signals hitting markets Tuesday morning, though Kevin Hincks points to A.I. speculation as the biggest. He explains that the attitude will persist heading into Nvidia's (NVDA) earnings Wednesday. Sentiment also hit Bitcoin, with the cryptocurrency turning negative for the year. As for the spontaneous jobless claims report, Kevin notes the higher number but makes the case investors should discredit the date of the report. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Michael Nadeau from The DeFi Report joins Ryan to break down why he went 70% cash ahead of the flash crash, what late-cycle data he's watching, and the signals that would flip him back risk on.
