In this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Leo Trudel, Co-Founder of Aurelion Research, to dig into his global, top-down approach to finding mispriced companies across micro, small, and mid-cap markets - and why he built a firm where the research and the portfolio are one and the same. We break down his obsession with free cash flow over adjusted EBITDA, how he uses AI to hold management teams accountable to years of past guidance, why tankers may still be more compelling than people think, and his contrarian take on where the AI capex buildout is headed. We mention several companies and sectors during this conversation, and I'm not a shareholder in any of them.

As France hosted a UN conference on protecting the ocean, NGOs denounced the fact that large shipping companies were sponsoring the event, calling them some of the biggest polluters.  The maritime transport sector accounts for 3% of global CO2 emissions, as dry cargo shipments more than doubled since 2000. Plus, the US and China have started a new round trade talks in London, with Beijing's export control of rare earths firmly in focus.

February comes with several notable dates for the calendar, but in marine insurance the end of the month means one thing: P&I renewals. Renewals for the International Group of P&I clubs are due on February 20th every year. This was traditionally the first date the Baltic ports were free of ice, and while shipping doesn't halt for the seasons in the same way it once did, the date has stuck. Lloyd's List insurance editor David Osler has once again gathered executives of major P&I clubs and brokers to ask them how their renewal season went, whether they think clubs should be handing back more cash to owners and perhaps most importantly, whether the 170-year-old system can cope with an ever-more volatile industry and some hefty recent claims. Joining David this week are: Jonathan Andrews, chief executive of Steamship Mutual Tom Bowsher, chief executive of West of England Thya Kathiravel, chief underwriting officer at NorthStandard Stephen Hawke, managing director at P&I broker Lockton Ferrari

After graduating from high school, HARRY DECKER spent ten years in the U.S. Air Force working with computers in military intelligence. He has lived in ten different states and took college classes in five of them. He never completed a college degree, however, due to changing his mind about his career. He has attended various technical schools over the years to keep up with the changing industry. In civilian life, he worked as a computer operator, programmer, technical writer, and tech support specialist for various companies such as Maricopa County, St. Joseph's Medical Center, Information Network Corporation, and Charles Schwab International. His hobby at one time was tournament chess, but he dropped that and took up creative writing and filmmaking. He had a short story published five years ago titled “A. I. Gone Amok,” a fictional tale about the dangers of artificial intelligence and that the deep state was planning on releasing a virus that would kill millions. Now retired, he writes and directs plays. And he's working on a short film. He has also written numerous technical reports over the past three years that challenge climate alarmist claims and the green agenda.  00:00 Introduction to Harry Decker's Presentation 00:17 Critique of the United Nations and Climate Change Policies 01:50 The Concept of Net Zero and Its Challenges 02:46 Historical Context and Failures of the United Nations 04:16 Global Conflicts and Humanitarian Issues 06:40 The United Nations' Stance on Climate Change 08:15 Criticism of Mainstream Media and Climate Predictions 11:28 The Role of Automobiles in Pollution and Climate Change 17:09 Electric Vehicles: Benefits and Drawbacks 18:26 The Impact of Lithium Mining and Battery Production 28:00 Challenges in Aviation and Sustainable Fuel 33:08 Agriculture and the Role of Tractors 36:46 Shipping Industry and Fossil Fuel Dependency 40:58 The Environmental Impact of Bunker Fuel 41:22 Cleaner and Greener Container Ships 42:00 The Growing Fleet of Container Ships 43:01 Luxury Yachts and Their Environmental Footprint 44:09 The Role of Trucks and Trains in Freight Transport 45:48 The Massive Fuel Consumption of Military and Naval Vessels 48:17 Cruise Ships and Their Environmental Concerns 50:12 The Ubiquity of Heavy Machinery and Equipment 55:07 The Debate on Climate Change and Media Narratives 01:10:34 The Future of Energy and Fossil Fuels 01:12:04 Conclusion: The Reality of Achieving Net Zero Slides for this podcast, along with AI summaries of all of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries https://x.com/hdeckeraz ======== My Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL89cj_OtPeenLkWMmdwcT8Dt0DGMb8RGR X: https://twitter.com/TomANelson Substack: https://tomn.substack.com/ About Tom: https://tomn.substack.com/about

What's up, folks? It's your host Brad Lea and this is Dropping Bombs. Today, I've got a bad@ss on the show—Robert Nikit, CEO of a company that's doing $50 million in sales. But what's even crazier is where this dude started. Robert shares his story of escaping a war-torn Bosnia and Croatia, coming to the U.S. with NOTHING, and hustling his way to the top. We get into some real talk about the drop shipping industry, and he gives you the inside scoop on why most of it's a scam. But his software, Why Unified, changes the game by letting you sell big-name brands like Crest, Starbucks, and Colgate, making it easy for everyday people to cash in.  We dive deep into how he built this platform from scratch and the mindset it takes to succeed. Plus, we have a little fun comparing our perspectives on luxury cars (Ferrari vs. Lambo, anyone?) and even talk about his upcoming work with the Tate brothers. Trust me, you don't want to miss this one.

While we see trucks and trains moving freight around the country, goods are also traveling by freighter, and some of those ships are 1,000 feet long. In this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast, Walt Lindala and Frida Waara talk with Sam Hankinson, Development Coordinator at the Port of Monroe about the health of Great Lakes shipping and how we can learn more about what's cruising out on the water.Key Takeaways: Great Lakes vessels can haul as much cargo in one trip as hundreds of rail cars or thousands of trucks, showcasing their efficiency and importance. The seasonality of Great Lakes shipping includes winter layup for maintenance and upkeep, ensuring the reliability of vessels during the active shipping season. Despite the age of some ships, proper maintenance and care can prolong their lifespan, highlighting the durability of vessels in freshwater environments. The tight-knit maritime community of the Great Lakes region comes together in times of need, exemplified by the prompt and collaborative response to maritime incidents. Resources such as the Marine Traffic app provide real-time vessel tracking, allowing enthusiasts and observers to monitor ship movements and identify passing vessels.Notable Quotes: "These vessels are carrying the iron ore that's going into steelmaking… They're doing everything. They're carrying the building blocks of America." "These ships exist to move cargo, people make their livelihoods on the Great Lakes… when stuff goes wrong and people are in danger, our industry stands up, our community stands up." "The winter layup period is a very important time… to prepare vessels for the next season and the seasons beyond." "When you start tracking them, you will get it down to a science of how far away they are, when they're going to show up, and when the next one will be coming by." "There is nothing wrong with traveling to a place like Duluth, Marquette, or Sault Ste. Marie… just sitting down by the water and waiting for the boats to go by and enjoying it at your own speed."Resources:National Parks of Lake Superior FoundationMarine Traffic appDon't miss out on the captivating insights and stories shared in this episode of the Lake Superior podcast.

It seems we find ourselves in an era of “cascading crises”. The de-risked, de-coupled, low growth, fractious trading environment that the industry is navigating today is laden with uncertainty. China's growth engine is sputtering. The consequences of sanctions and regional bloc economics is creating a bi-polar political and trading environment and inflation is starting to bite. And then there's the existing twin track revolution of decarbonisation and digitalisation to deal with. For those of you returning to the Lloyd's List Podcast after our short summer hiatus – don't worry – we haven't run out of topics to talk about. This week the great and the good of the shipping industry are descending on Lloyd's List's doorstep for London International Shipping Week and, not wishing to disappoint our guests we're going to be running a daily podcast for the duration of the discussions. We are starting a week of LISW podcasts with a whistlestop tour of the issues keeping industry executives awake at night. Today's edition features: • Nikolaus H. Schües, BIMCO President and CEO and owner of Reederei F. Laeisz • Sarah Treseder, UK Chamber of Shipping. Chief Executive • Guy Platten, secretary general, International Chamber of Shipping • Michael Parker, Chairman, Global Shipping, Logistics & Offshore at Citi and one of the architects of the Poseidon Principles

In this episode of the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, Andrew discusses two significant news stories related to the ocean. The first is the alarming increase in sea surface temperatures, with some areas hitting 100 degrees Fahrenheit. This comes amidst a trend of record-high temperatures and extreme weather events. The second news item is the emergence of a revised strategy to reduce global shipping emissions, reflecting an increase in the industry's climate ambition. Andrew ponders whether these efforts are too late in the face of ongoing environmental challenges. Tune in to learn more about these developments and how to take action for a better ocean.

The international shipping industry is a major greenhouse gas emitter, accounting for about three percent of all greenhouse gas emitted last year. For reference, this is roughly equivalent to the total annual emissions of Germany.  Because these emissions occur on international waters, the shipping industry was purposefully left out of the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement. Instead, a UN agency called the International Maritime Organization is the forum for multilateral diplomacy to curb emissions in international shipping. In early July members of the IMO met in London for negotiations.   Joining me to discuss why this meeting was so significant to international efforts to curb greenhouse gas emissions is Susan Ruffo, Senior Director and Senior Advisor for Ocean and Climate at United Nations Foundation. We kick off discussing the impact of international shipping on climate change and then have an extended conversation about what happened at this meeting of the International Maritime Organization, which includes a new target for emission reduction and progress towards enacting a levy on carbon emissions from shipping.

Transporting people and cargo across the globe is almost as old as time itself! With shipping accounting for 90% of World Trade, it was surprising for us to learn how outdated the industry is with regards to technology! The maritime industry is still very manual, and highly regulated making it a herculean task to even propose bringing about change! But COVID flipped this entire narrative! The pandemic revealed how fragile the global supply chains of essential items are. Shortages in medicines, lumber, to semiconductor chips and cars highlighted the weaknesses & risks in global trade!  Recent global challenges & conflicts have made supply-chain resilience a must-have for businesses across the world. The need for advanced technology to predict & adapt to sharp fluctuations between supply and demand is all the more essential! In today's episode we re-visit our discussion with Martin Verhaegen, Founder & CEO of Qwyk, a digital logistics platform, aimed at revolutionizing one of the oldest industries in the world. Since we recorded this conversation, the THC team was thrilled to hear that Qwyk's incredible cloud-based shipping platform was acquired by Magaya Corporation, the leading provider of logistics and supply chain automation software. Tune in to hear Martin's incredible vision, resilience and drive to digitize the Trillion dollar shipping industry!Support the show
