Podcasts about risk reward

In this episode, Eric continues the Automated Strategy Pipeline series by tackling one of the most misunderstood topics in trading: win rate.Many traders evaluate a strategy based on a single number: the percentage of winning trades. But a high win rate alone doesn't tell you whether a strategy is profitable, scalable, or even worth trading.Using real examples from his own SPX trading portfolio, Eric explains why win rate, average win, average loss, expectancy, and risk reward all work together to determine a strategy's long-term performance.Topics discussed include:• Why win rate by itself can be misleading• The relationship between win rate, average win, and average loss• Why a 30% win rate strategy can still have positive expectancy• The differences between credit spreads and debit spreads• How combining strategies with different risk/reward profiles may smooth portfolio returns• The role of trade frequency in systematic trading• Why automation makes it easier to consistently execute multiple strategies• How Alpha Crunching's new EOD Put Debit Spread complements the existing TSE 0DTE Credit Spread strategyEric also discusses how he is building a portfolio of automated SPX strategies designed to work together rather than relying on a single edge or market environment.Alpha Crunching:https://www.alphacrunching.com

Nearly every major index is at a record high — and everyone's asking the same question: is this the beginning of something great, or the end of something that's gone too far?This week on Money On Tap, Ben Brayshaw and Dan Michelon take that question apart with 75 years of market history, a few statistics that genuinely surprised them, and a clear look at what a record high means for you — whether you're decades from retirement or already drawing income.What you'll learn:The Fidelity data showing investing at an all-time high beats investing on a random dayWhy a record high is usually a signal of a healthy economy, not a topA walk through 1982, 1987, 1995–1999, 2000, 2009, and 2020Why today's AI market looks more like 1995 than the 2000 dot-com bubbleWhy timing the market is a loser's game — and why taking profits isn't fearSequence-of-returns risk — why the first years of retirement decide everythingBuffered ETFs — staying in the market with downside guardrailsAnnuities with lifetime income and long-term-care ridersPlus Money In The News:American financial literacy hits a 10-year low — U.S. adults answered just 47% of the TIAA Institute's 2026 questions correctly (Yahoo Finance, Kerry Hannon)America's data-center build-out falls behind schedule — Google's $80B equity raise and what it signals about AI's real cost (WSJ, Katherine Blunt)Exxon chief warns oil could spike to $160–$170 a barrel as strategic reserves run thin (Fox Business, Robert McGreevy)Mentioned on air: Our short sequence-of-returns risk video — watch it at brayshawfinancial.com.Read the companion blog: brayshawfinancial.com/blogSchedule a free consultation: app.greminders.com/t/9f3ce72e/initialconsultaFull Money On Tap episode library: brayshawfinancial.com/money-on-tapContact UsPhone: 855-226-8551Email: info@yourmoneyontap.comOffice: 116 South River Road, Bedford, NH 03110Web: brayshawfinancial.comWhat is the retirement red zone, and why does it matter? The retirement red zone is the roughly ten-year window covering the five years before and the five years after your retirement date. It matters more than almost any other period because of sequence-of-returns risk: a major market downturn while you're beginning to withdraw income can permanently damage the plan, even if the market later recovers. Two people who invest identically but retire a few years apart can end up with opposite outcomes based solely on timing. Navigating the red zone means shifting from maximizing gains to mitigating losses — stress-testing the plan, building a cash runway, rebalancing, diversifying, and adding guardrails like buffered ETFs and guaranteed income.

In this episode, we are joined by Ben Carlson, Director of Institutional Asset Management at Ritholtz Wealth Management and author of Risk & Reward, for a wide-ranging conversation about market history, investor psychology, and the realities of long-term investing. Ben brings his trademark blend of data-driven thinking and plainspoken storytelling to topics like market crashes, inflation, diversification, and why investors are so tempted to time the market. We explore the lessons from Japan's historic asset bubble, the lingering impact of the Great Depression, and why diversification remains one of the few true free lunches in investing. Ben also explains the difference between volatility and risk, why the stock market is not the economy, and how investor behavior—not market performance—is often the biggest determinant of success. Along the way, we discuss inflation hedges, lost decades, speculative behavior, and the psychological challenge of staying invested through inevitable downturns.   Key Points From This Episode: (0:00:20) Introducing Ben Carlson, his new book Risk & Reward, and his long-running blog A Wealth of Common Sense.

How should investors think about risk, reward, and building a portfolio that actually matches their goals? In this episode of the White Coat Investor Podcast, we talk with Ben Carlson about themes from his new book Risk & Reward, including market fear, portfolio complexity, behavioral mistakes, and the tradeoffs involved in investing decisions. We discuss questions many investors wrestle with: real estate versus stocks, crypto investing, factor tilts, tactical asset allocation, gold, paying off debt versus investing, and balancing risk across a portfolio.

We cover the environmental impact of large language models, data centre energy use, and how tracking prompt efficiency acts as a sustainability intervention. Topics include conscious creativity, digital carbon footprint, work footprint, and practical steps for reducing AI energy consumption at work.Every time AI comes up in a marketing conversation, someone asks: "But what about the planet?" This webinar is the answer to that question.Seb Royce, Creative and Communications Partner at Eden Lab, joined us as someone who's been sitting with this tension for years. He loves AI. He uses it every day. But he's also a marketer who audited his own work footprint, took a course at the Cambridge Institute for Sustainable Leadership, and came out the other side with a framework he actually uses.

In this episode of Friday Field Notes, Ryan Michler tackles a controversial but critical idea: what if free markets aren't the problem—but the proving ground for masculinity? Ryan breaks down how systems built on risk, accountability, competition, and earned success shape men into capable, resilient leaders. He contrasts this with the growing appeal of dependency-driven systems and explains why outsourcing responsibility may come at a deeper cost—your purpose, identity, and sovereignty. This is a direct, unfiltered look at what men lose when struggle disappears—and why the free market might be the arena men actually need.

You need to manage risk, build in contingency, and create assets that perform over the long term.In this episode, I sit down with returning guest Caroline Pattinson of ChesterHomeshare to talk about the risk, reward, and reality of building a successful HMO business.This isn't just a conversation about a big project or impressive numbers, it's a real look at what it actually takes to scale.

Sponsored by Pepperstone. Most traders don't lose because they're wrong on direction… They lose because they enter too late. They wait for confirmation. They wait to feel safe. And by the time they pull the trigger… The trade is already broken. In this episode, I break down why entry location is one of the most overlooked edges in trading… and how a simple idea, buying on red and selling on green, can dramatically improve your risk-reward. We cover: Why waiting often destroys trade structureThe difference between buying pullbacks vs chasing breakoutsHow volatility contraction and expansion impact your edgeWhy better entries lead to better trades (even with the same idea) If you find yourself being right on direction a lot… but not getting the results. This one will hit home.

Emily Harrington is a professional rock climber, alpinist, and adventurer known for pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the vertical world. A five-time American sport climbing champion and member of The North Face athlete team, Emily has established herself as one of the most accomplished and versatile climbers of her generation, with landmark ascents on big walls and high-altitude peaks around the world.For Emily, climbing is as much about the journey and the people as it is about the summit. Whether projecting the hardest multi-pitch routes in Mexico or commentating a live Netflix broadcast of Alex Honnold free soloing Taipei 101, she brings the same curiosity, grit, and openness to every experience.- Emily recently served as a commentator for Netflix's "Skyscraper Live", in which Alex Honnold free soloed Taipei 101. The experience offered a behind-the-scenes look at the complexity of live television production — coordinating hundreds of crew members while capturing one of climbing's most audacious feats in real time.- On a recent trip to Mexico, Emily attempted "La Sombra del Chamán," widely considered the hardest multi-pitch route in the country. The climb tested her relationship with fear and exposure on big walls and led to a deeply personal decision to step back from her own send attempt to support her climbing partner, Matt Segal.- After a busy stretch of travel and high-output experiences, Emily reflects honestly on nervous system overload and the quiet loss of motivation that can follow — and what it looks like to reset, recalibrate, and find joy in climbing again, as she's currently doing on a low-key rock climbing trip in Italy with minimal gear and zero performance pressure.To learn more about Emily Harrington, follow her on Instagram @emilyaharrington. Her new documentary Girl Climber follows her career-defining attempt to free climb El Capitan in under 24 hours — becoming the first woman to free climb the 36-pitch Golden Gate route in a day, a feat previously accomplished only by male climbers like Alex Honnold and Tommy Caldwell.

Austin sits down with Forex Ike to talk about prop firms, scalping, negative risk-to-reward trading, and why so many traders overcomplicate the path to profitability. Ike explains how he keeps trading simple with basic support and resistance, quick NQ scalps, and a mindset built around taking consistent payouts instead of chasing huge wins. The conversation covers part-time trading, evals vs. instant funded accounts, copy trading, social media's impact on trader expectations, and why too much information can actually make you worse. Ike has taken futures prop payouts from firms like Top One Futures, Topstep, and more!! Sponsor:

This episode breaks down autism and intuition from the circuitry up. Intuition isn't magic—it's prediction. And in the autistic brain, that prediction system runs differently. Instead of compressing uncertainty into fast social “gut feelings,” autistic cognition preserves high-resolution detail, sustains prediction error, and builds insight through iterative modeling. Sensory cortex, parietal salience maps, insula, amygdala, OFC, and ACC all play a role in a system that prioritizes structural truth over social smoothing.We explore excitation–inhibition balance, oscillations, dopamine learning, and von Economo neurons to show how intuition in autism isn't diminished—it's reconstructed. Insight may arrive later, but when it does, it's deeply refined. This is a neuroscience-driven look at why autistic minds resolve uncertainty through coherence, not conformity—and why that difference matters.This episode will also explain WHY the Autistic phenotype has ACCELERATED LEARNING abilities. use "autism" for $50 off at Daylight Computer Company https://buy.daylightcomputer.com/autismand Daylight Kids https://kids.daylightcomputer.com/autismChroma Light Devices, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://getchroma.co/?ref=autism0:00 Autism & Intuition Introduction; Autos (“Self”) and Sensory Overload0:53 Daylight Computer Company, Daylight Kids & Chroma Light Devices (Technology, Biology, Light)3:26 What Intuition Really Is: Sensory Integration, Prediction, Memory, and Value5:02 Neurotypical vs Autistic Intuition; Prediction Error, E/I Balance, Iterative Processing7:00 Sensory Cortex & Higher Signal Fidelity; Prediction Errors and Raw Detail Preservation11:30 Posterior Parietal Cortex; Salience Maps, Anomaly Detection, Truth vs Social Narrative13:30 Anterior Insula & Amygdala; Interoception, Emotional Salience, Feeling vs Thinking17:30 Orbitofrontal Cortex; Value Computation, Internal Coherence vs Social Reward19:30 ACC Conflict Monitoring; Risk–Reward, Persistence, Errors23:30 The Learning Gate: Why Autism Enables Accelerated Mastery24:45 Von Economo (Spindle) Neurons; ACC–Insula Fast Intuition Pathway and Autism Differences28:40 Iterative Learning Loop; Prefrontal Modeling, Basal Ganglia Dopamine, Structural Coherence35:50 Autos (“Self”), Jung, Recursive Modeling, and Why Autistic Intuition Is Built—Not GivenX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

In this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and John Engel welcome Dave Lashmet to the show. Dave is the editor of Stansberry Venture Technology, an advisory that takes a "venture capitalist" look at the market. Dave scours the market looking for little-known small-cap companies that are potentially producing the next wonder drug or technology.   Dave kicks things off by discussing the first of three biopharmaceutical companies he's sharing that have monopolies in weight-loss drugs. He starts by showing how drugs gain their monopolies via patents, giving them "economic exclusivity." While companies might be targeting the same patients, the patents influence how they're being treated. The first company gains an edge by not only targeting folks suffering from obesity, but also by treating those with Type 2 diabetes. Dave also explains the contrast in mentality between the U.S. and other countries regarding obesity being preventable. And he provides info showing how obesity is a "slippery slope" and shares that a study found that participants who got off the drug gained back the weight they lost before. (0:00)   Next, Dave sums up how the first company has cleared all of the risks and expenses from clinical trials, while a close competitor still has to get past its trials due to unknown side effects. When asked about why folks would stay on a weight-loss pill for life, Dave points to how our culture has drastically changed over the years, from actively working on farms to passively working in cubicles. These drugs help balance out the resulting shift. Dave then transitions into the next company that has a drug that focuses on fatty liver disease. He explains how this distinction helps the company gain its monopoly due to how irreplaceable livers are. And similar to the first company, this drug will have lifelong consumers. And the good news for investors is that its only competitor causes weight gain. (21:49)   Finally, Dave presents the final company that tackles weight loss by focusing on genetics. Unlike the first two companies, this one treats patients with an injectable drug rather than a pill. However, it zeroes in on our natural "hunger switch," suppressing the users' appetites. Right now, the company is only waiting to get past trials, which puts it at a disadvantage compared with the other two. But Dave still believes that because of how it works, it's still set to stand beside the two pills. (39:44)

He starts by showing how drugs gain their monopolies via patents, giving them "economic exclusivity." While companies might be targeting the same patients, the patents influence how they're being treated. The first company gains an edge by not only targeting folks suffering from obesity, but also by treating those with Type 2 diabetes. Dave also explains the contrast in mentality between the U.S. and other countries regarding obesity being preventable. And he provides info showing how obesity is a "slippery slope" and shares that a study found that participants who got off the drug gained back the weight they lost before. (0:00)   Next, Dave sums up how the first company has cleared all of the risks and expenses from clinical trials, while a close competitor still has to get past its trials due to unknown side effects. When asked about why folks would stay on a weight-loss pill for life, Dave points to how our culture has drastically changed over the years, from actively working on farms to passively working in cubicles. These drugs help balance out the resulting shift. Dave then transitions into the next company that has a drug that focuses on fatty liver disease. He explains how this distinction helps the company gain its monopoly due to how irreplaceable livers are. And similar to the first company, this drug will have lifelong consumers. And the good news for investors is that its only competitor causes weight gain. (21:49)   Finally, Dave presents the final company that tackles weight loss by focusing on genetics. Unlike the first two companies, this one treats patients with an injectable drug rather than a pill. However, it zeroes in on our natural "hunger switch," suppressing the users' appetites. Right now, the company is only waiting to get past trials, which puts it at a disadvantage compared with the other two. But Dave still believes that because of how it works, it's still set to stand beside the two pills. (39:44)

The 94 WIP Midday Show is discussing the current state of the Eagles offense and the belief that Jalen Hurts should be running the ball more. Jason Kelce wants to see Hurts continue to get reps in the running game because it will help them in the playoffs. Joe Giglio isn't so sure, saying it's risky and Hurts shouldn't even need to use his legs in these last three games. Hugh Douglas believes the Eagles do not hold the luxury of limiting their offense and that Hurts needs to run.

This episode focuses on the critical importance of having a backup plan, not just for technical redundancies but especially for situations involving human error, which are highly prevalent in one's career. The core argument hinges on understanding risk and reward curves, highlighting the disproportionate impact of failures compared to incremental successes.Understanding Risk and Reward Curves:Successes are often incremental. Delivering a project on time typically leads to opportunities for more projects, good performance reviews, and modest pay increases (e.g., 5-7%). These are positive, but linear or slightly bumpy gains.Failures, especially uncaught ones, have a much longer negative tail. The potential for loss from a significant mistake or a disastrous project significantly outweighs the potential for gain from a success.A bad performance review, for example, can affect future reviews, decrease promotion likelihood, and follow you for a much longer period than a good one.Uncaught failures can place individuals in a pool for budget cuts or layoffs, leading to catastrophic curves where negative effects compound much faster, resembling a logarithmic function. One or two significant negative events could wipe out all accumulated incremental gains.The Criticality of Backup Plans:Backup plans are essential to avoid these catastrophic negative curves and major "wipeout scenarios".This preparedness applies to project failures, personal career contingencies (e.g., getting laid off), and even events beyond direct control.It's crucial to prepare for theoretically possible catastrophic events, not just those that have historically occurred. Even "Black Swan" events or things you're not prepared for can cause major issues.Thinking like this (e.g., similar to life insurance, which you only need once if at all) encourages hedging efforts with basic backup plans, such as redundancy.Benefits of Preparedness:The more you prepare for contingencies, the more likely you can deal with the majority of failures, preventing the catastrophic curve.Having backup plans can create a "flywheel effect", where your ability to respond to negative events actually increases the speed of stacking up further positive outcomes.Being proactive in your career (e.g., interviewing even when you're happy in your current role) builds resiliency.Actionable Advice:Focus on what could go wrong: Try to figure out how things could fail and what catastrophic events are possible, even if they haven't happened yet.Identify vulnerabilities: Locate areas where a catastrophe could lead to a steep drop-off in your career trajectory.Implement a basic backup plan: The recommendation is to put just one in place this week for something that could catastrophically impact your career. This provides a sense of relief and ensures readiness if needed. Taking this first step is likely to encourage creating more backup plans for professional situations.

Neon couldn't burn any brighter than it is now. The film production and distribution company acquired the rights to six consecutive Palme d'Or winners at the Cannes Film Festival: Parasite (2019), Titane (2021), Triangle of Sadness (2022), Anatomy of a Fall (2023), Anora (2024), and It Was Just an Accident (2025). Parasite was the first foreign language film to win Best Picture at the Academy Awards in 2020. Longlegs became the highest-grossing independent film in 2024. Director Sean Baker won 4 Oscars for his film Anora tying with the one and only Walt Disney for most Oscar wins in a single night. All of this from a studio that's only been around for 8 years. Film industry veteran Tom Quinn cofounded Neon in 2017 and has marked a distinct lane for himself in a crowded and, let's be honest, less-than-innovative industry. In this episode of Creative Control, Quinn traces his journey from actor to executive and explains how he's positioned Neon to be the "anti-algorithm" in a streaming world. He also gives his perspective on what's holding the wider film industry back and what Neon needs now to make their success sustainable.  For more of the latest business and innovation news, go to https://www.fastcompany.com/news To listen to the latest episodes of Creative Control on Fast Company:https://www.fastcompany.com/podcasts/creative-control

Tom Bodrovics welcomes back Adrian Day, CEO of Adrian Day Asset Management and Manager of the Euro Pacific Gold Fund, to discuss the economic and monetary landscape under President Trump's second term, the implications of tariffs, and the outlook for gold and other commodities. Adrian begins by addressing the potential impact of Trump's trade policies, particularly tariffs, on inflation and the global financial system. He argues that while tariffs are often seen as inflationary, they can be deflationary by reducing demand for certain goods. However, he warns that a weakening U.S. dollar and a potential loss of its reserve currency status could lead to higher inflation domestically, as dollars previously held abroad return to the U.S. Adrian emphasizes that while the U.S. dollar's dominance is not immediately threatened, Trump's policies could accelerate its decline, with significant consequences for the economy. The conversation then shifts to the U.S. debt market, where Adrian highlights the challenges of financing the growing deficit. He notes that major buyers of U.S. Treasuries, such as China and Japan, are reducing their holdings, and domestic buyers like regional banks and the Federal Reserve are also pulling back. This could lead to higher interest rates and increased pressure on the U.S. economy. Adrian predicts that the Federal Reserve may eventually return to quantitative easing (QE) to support the bond market, which would be bullish for gold. He also discusses the disconnect between gold prices and gold mining stocks, attributing it to the lack of participation from North American investors. However, he believes this is changing as economic conditions shift, with gold stocks offering significant value and expanding margins. Adrian also touches on other commodities, particularly copper and uranium, which he sees as critical for the global energy transition. He concludes by advising investors to focus on value rather than price, emphasizing that the gold market is still in its early stages of a bull run.
