Nate Thooft, chief investment officer and senior portfolio manager at Manulife Investment Management, says that he's still leaning into equities despite stock valuations being stretched, noting that the fundamentals support modest gains and aren't signalling a bubble or crisis. Thooft does worry that the market may run out of momentum and may lack a catalyst for further gains by the time 2026 rolls around, but for now he says there are plenty of reasons to keep investing and not to be scared off by high prices.  Mark Hamrick, senior economic analyst at Bankrate.com, discusses the site's latest retirement savings report, released Wednesday, which showed that nearly 60 percent of workers are behind on their retirement savings. Hamrick noted that the problem is partially about failing to make set-asides, but it is also caused by a lack of financial planning and common misperceptions about how money grows over time and how much it takes to afford a comfortable retirement.  Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, makes a Fidelity fund his pick as the ETF of the Week, but this selection is about the investment-grade assets the fund holds, and how they are an interesting actively managed change-up to more conventional fixed-income funds. Plus, Chuck answers a question from a listener whose wife wants to buy a new car and who wonders if it ever makes sense to buy new when he could save money on a quality used car.

Can AI work reliably at scale? Will everything be outsourced to AI? Will AI replace CEOs? Why is everyone riding the AI bandwagon, and where is it headed? These are the type of questions you would ask someone with long-standing experience in AI, engineering, business and beyond. Georg Zoeller is that someone: a seasoned software and business engineer experienced in frontier technology in the gaming industry and Facebook. Zoeller has been using AI in his work dating back to the 2010's, to the point where AI is now at the core of what he does. Zoeller is the VP of Technology of NOVI Health, a Singapore-based healthcare startup, as well as the Co-Founder of the Centre for AI Leadership and the AI Literacy & Transformation Institute. Zoeller has lots of insights to share on AI. And yet, the reason we got to meet and have an extensive, deep and fun conversation was a joke gone wild.

Luke Looks Back Part 6 Luke 4:31-5:26 - The Authority of the Messiah This passage has been carefully structured by Luke around the idea of authority. It starts off with 2 episodes in which Jesus shows his authority by first driving out an evil spirit and then healing many people. It ends with 2 episodes in which Jesus heals a man of leprosy, a symbol of evil, and heals a paralysed man. In between these 2 pairs of episodes Jesus shows his authority by proving that he, a carpenter, can catch more fish than the fishermen can. This middle story is the most important because it shows the authority Jesus had most clearly. First we read Luke 4: 31 - 44 Question 1: Twice in these episodes, when the man with an evil demon calls him 'the Holy One of God' and when the demons call him 'the Son of God', Jesus was more accurately identified by demonic powers than by ordinary people. Why was that? What are our modern day equivalents? That is a hard question to answer. Perhaps the otherworldly powers were more sensitive to the power of Jesus than ordinary people were. Are we as sensitive to the things of the Lord as we should be? Question 2: Why does Luke tell us that Simon's mother-in-law went straight back to the housework. Luke tells us how complete and natural the healing was. Simon's mother-in-law was able to go back into the kitchen and work. In the ordinary way she would have needed time to recover from the fever. The healing by Jesus was very special. In the same way when he heals us of our problems, physical, mental or spiritual, he often heals us instantly. The story of Luke 5: 1 - 11 is clearly the most important part of this passage. Fishing with nets in the Sea of Galilee was done when the fish rose to feed on the surface at night. There could only possibly have been a shoal near the surface in the daylight if a new fresh water spring had opened up in the seabed. (This is an area of volcanic activity). Jesus knew something nobody else did. We read these verses now. 5: 1 - 11 Question 3: What might Simon and John have said to each other when they thought Jesus could not hear when he, a carpenter, told them to go fishing in broad daylight! "Who does he think he is?" "Telling us where and when to fish indeed." "What does he know about it?" "He's only a carpenter." "Thinking because he is a prophet he knows where to fish. What rubbish!" And so on. A boat of those days has been dug up. It was 8m long and 2m wide. So it would have needed a crew of rowers and would have held a lot of fish before it began to sink! So this was a very big catch meaning enough money for many weeks for the families concerned. Question 4: What did Peter do which he must have done so that nobody else was able to share their good fortune (listen again to v 7)? Signalling instead of shouting would have stopped other fisherman realising what had happened and joining in the big catch. Question 5: What does this episode teach us about the relationship between money and spiritual commitment? Practical rewards do sometimes follow devotion of time and energy to spiritual matters as they did in this case. But they do not always do so. We must be prepared to sacrifice things for the sake of the Kingdom. Question 6: Peter wanted to distance himself from Jesus when he 'fell at Jesus' knees and said "Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man"' because he thought the unclean contaminated the clean and he was unclean. How did Jesus view this? What is the implication for us? Peter was following the teaching of the OT. Leviticus 10: 10 says, 'distinguish between the holy and the common, between the unclean and the clean'. These teachings were mainly about ceremonial cleanliness. Jesus ignored such things. He taught that the things that matter are love God and loving our neighbour. Ceremony is not important in the Kingdom of God. Question 7: Peter recognised the authority of Jesus over him as a result of the events on the lake. How do we know Jesus has authority over us? The disciples had seen a great miracle. But so do we when the Almighty God calls us to follow him and we respond. He then forgives our sins, promises us final salvation at the end of the ages and gives us his Holy Spirit to guide us until then. If we do not recognize his authority we are poor judges of what is good and great and what is of great advantage for us! Read Luke 5: 12 - 26. "Leprosy" in the Bible may not have been what we call leprosy these days but any of many skin diseases. Question 8: Jesus said "I am willing" and touched the man. What does that tell us about Jesus? Jesus entered fully into human life. He related easily to the outcast, leper man and touched him. That made him, Jesus, unclean under Jewish law but Jesus ignored that. He was interested in the realities of life not the details of religious practice. Question 9: The paralysed man's sins were forgiven not because of his faith but of 'their faith'. Do you think one person's faith can work to heal someone else today? If faith cannot work like that there is not much point in praying for anyone else - which we all do. It is lovely the way Jesus says 'I am willing' to heal someone and calls the guy on the stretcher 'friend' even although his friends have just made a mess of the roof of what was probably his, Jesus' , house.

France's president is jetting from Cairo to the Sinai, near the border with Gaza, to show that Europe has not forgotten the plight of Palestinians who are back under daily bombardment since the collapse of last month's ceasefire with Israel. But was there perhaps a more subtle message for Benjamin Netanyahu? The visit is taking place the same day that Israel's Supreme Court rules whether the prime minister unfairly wants to dismiss the head of the Shin Bet intelligence service. The service just happened to have launched a probe into two of Netanyahu's media advisors allegedly being on the take from Qatar. Are the pair behind a disinformation campaign against Egypt, with false claims of a troop buildup at the Gaza border? Either way, France's president stands by Egypt.Just 24 hours ago, we would have been asking why Netanyahu should care what Macron thinks, as long as Donald Trump has his back. But that was before an awkward visit by Netanyahu to the White House late on Monday. Did the US president catch his guest off guard when he announced the reopening of talks with Iran or praised Turkey? And what about that phone call Trump had before meeting Netanyahu with a certain Emmanuel Macron?Produced by Rebecca Gnignati, Ilayda Habip and Oihana Almandoz.

A stickler for language, Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu twice this month remained conspicuously silent when senior Trump administration officials chose words that signalled potential changes in US policy towards Gaza, the Palestinians, and Hamas.

Numbers 10: The Silver Trumpets and Israel's Journey from Sinai Numbers 10 marks a pivotal moment in Israel's journey from Mount Sinai, where they had received the Law, toward the Promised Land. The chapter is divided into two main sections: the instructions for the silver trumpets (verses 1-10) and the first movement of the Israelite camp (verses 11-36). 1. The Silver Trumpets (Numbers 10:1-10) God commands Moses to make two silver trumpets for use in leading the people. These trumpets serve several functions: A. Purposes of the Silver Trumpets Calling the congregation (v. 2) – When both trumpets are blown, the entire community gathers at the entrance of the Tabernacle. Signalling movement (v. 5-6) – Different trumpet blasts direct different groups to begin their journey. Sounding an alarm for war (v. 9) – When Israel goes to battle, the trumpets are sounded as a call for divine intervention. Announcing feasts and offerings (v. 10) – The trumpets are blown during appointed festivals and sacrifices as a reminder before God. B. Spiritual Significance The trumpets symbolize God's guidance and order in leading His people. They emphasize the need for clear communication among God's people. The sound of the trumpets is a reminder that God is with them in battle and worship. 2. The Israelites Depart from Sinai (Numbers 10:11-36) After nearly a year at Mount Sinai, the Israelites finally begin their journey toward the Promised Land. A. The Cloud Moves, and Israel Follows (v. 11-13) The cloud of God's presence lifts from above the Tabernacle and moves, signaling the people to break camp. This marks the first major journey since leaving Egypt. B. The Order of the March (v. 14-28) The tribes move in an orderly formation, as instructed in Numbers 2. The Ark of the Covenant goes ahead to guide them. The Levites carry and set up the Tabernacle before the rest of the people arrive. C. Moses and Hobab (v. 29-32) Moses invites Hobab, his Midianite brother-in-law, to join them, offering him a place among God's people. Hobab hesitates, but Moses encourages him, recognising his knowledge of the wilderness. This highlights the importance of wisdom and partnership in leadership. D. The Journey Begins (v. 33-36) They travel for three days with the Ark leading the way. Moses prays whenever they set out and whenever they stop: “Rise up, O Lord! May Your enemies be scattered!” (v. 35) “Return, O Lord, to the countless thousands of Israel.” (v. 36) This shows that God's presence is central to their journey. Key Themes and Lessons from Numbers 10 1.God's Guidance is Clear and Orderly The use of trumpets and the movement of the cloud show that God provides direction in an organized way. In our lives, we should seek and recognize God's guidance. 2.The Role of Leadership in God's Plan Moses ensures that the Israelites march in order and seeks help from Hobab. Leadership involves wisdom, delegation, and seeking help when needed. 3.Faith and Dependence on God The people rely on the Ark and God's presence to lead them. Moses' prayer acknowledges that only God can protect and guide His people. Application for Today Listening for God's direction – Just as the Israelites responded to the trumpets, we should be attentive to God's voice through His Word and Spirit. Moving forward in faith – When God calls us to move, we should trust in His provision and guidance. Recognizing the power of prayer – Moses' prayers remind us to seek God's protection and presence in our daily lives. Numbers 10 is a turning point, showing Israel's first steps toward their divine destiny. It reminds us that God is faithful to guide His people when they trust and obey Him.

There's concern among petrol station owners, following BNZ signalling its lending period for fossil fuels is ending. BNZ has informed one business lending to petrol store owners will end - and the bank needs all debt repaid by 2030. The bank says it's an economic decision, as they're foreseeing people switching to electric vehicles. An anonymous owner of multiple rural petrol stations says the decision hurts farmers, who will still need diesel. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cem Sertoglu is one of the great venture investors of the last decade. Cem is famed for writing the first check into UiPath and over several rounds turning $16.5M into $2.1BN. Cem recently started Bek Ventures, a $250M fund that was 3x oversubscribed.  In Today's Show with Cem Sertoglu We Discuss: 1. Has Venture Capital Been Commoditised: Why does Cem believe that VC has not been commoditised? Why does Cem believe many VCs today are not even VCs anymore? How does Cem advise founders who have offers from large multi-stage firms? What questions should they ask them pre-working with them?  How do the best founders select the VC they choose to work with? 2. Price, Reserves, Loss Ratios: Why does Cem believe that price does not matter? How does Cem approach reserves and reserves management? What does Cem know now about reserves that he wishes he had known when he started investing? Does Cem care about loss ratio? Does he do scenario planning when making investments? 3. Making $2.1BN on UiPath:  How did Cem meet Daniel for the first time? Was it obvious he was incredible? Why did they only write a $1M check and not take the whole round with $1.5M? Why did 40 of the best investors in Europe all turn down UiPath for the Series A? What did doing the bridge round for UiPath teach Cem about reserves? When was it obvious UiPath was going to be a mega hit? How did they continue to concentrate capital with each round? When did they first start to sell shares in UiPath? What was their approach to the selldown of their position? When the company IPO'd, how much of it did they have?  4. AMA with One of Europe's Best: Does signalling exist? How does Cem advise founders on this? What has been his biggest loss? How did that change his mindset? What has been Cem's biggest miss? What did he not see? Why does Cem always believe you should manufacture arguments with founders before investing? Why does Cem believe a high GP commit can actually misalign the GP and the LP?

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.theflyingfrisby.comFor the first time in history, gold went above £2,000/oz yesterday.This is a huge landmark in the decline of sterling.Of course, nobody in the UK echelons of power is talking about it.We are, however, because it matters. Who is buying it so much gold that price keeps going up? Why are they buying? There are hugely significant developments taking place in Asia that have the potential to reshape the global financial order.This bull market is not like previous bull markets. It's not driven by retail buying. What's driving it is far more significant than that.Clowns to the left, cretins to the rightHere is gold in pounds since Gordon Brown sold ours in 1999. It's quite something—over ten times higher! What a clown.Meanwhile, in other currencies, gold continues its march. Here it is in dollars, the preferred benchmark, over the past three years. This is proper bull market stuff.I know I have said this a million times, but I really urge you, if you haven't already, to diversify out of sterling—indeed any form of fiat money—and use gold as your savings vehicle.The gold price action is telling us something.The way this government is going—it's proving almost as rudderless as the Tories were, and in record time—sterling could have real problems, and soon.To my knowledge, not one influencer in the Labour Party, over the course of its conference this week, mentioned stewarding the currency, protecting its value, or any of that stuff. Just as every government before it has, they will use sterling devaluation to compensate for their deficit spending.The pound is only holding up in the forex markets because the Bank of England did not cut rates last week, when the Federal Reserve and the ECB have gone into a rate-cutting cycle.Perhaps, more significantly, no one in the Labour Party is discussing what is happening in Asia. Central banks are buying gold in huge quantities. They are no longer waiting for the price to pull back before making their purchases. Perhaps most significantly of all—they are not reporting all their gold purchases. It is happening on the quiet.If you want to buy gold to protect yourself in these uncertain times, let me recommend The Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them.De-dollarisation is happening in front of our very eyesThe implications for the West are huge. But, despite the geopolitical significance, this issue is nowhere close to the Labour radar.This goes back to early 2022 and the Russian invasion of Ukraine when the US confiscated Russia's US$300 billion. Most of the rest of Asia looked at that and thought, “we need to de-dollarize.”China, as we know, has quietly been reducing its holdings of US Treasuries. It now holds $777 billion in US Treasuries, which is about 10% of the US national debt held by foreign entities. This compares to 22% in November 2013. That is quite the reduction.China has also, as we know, been accumulating vast amounts of gold.Analyst Jan Nieuwenhuijs calculates that China has bought 1,600 tonnes of gold since Covid. I think the number is higher. That is on top of the 370 tonnes it mines annually—and most of that mining is state-owned. I was having dinner with a VIP Chinese investment banker last night. I asked him about the Chinese mentality and de-dollarisation. “It is a matter of pride,” he said. China does not want to be beholden to the US. Global reserve currency status is a goal. There has never been a global reserve currency that did not start out backed by gold.For now, it continues operating by its doctrine, “we must not shine too brightly,” but all the while it is accumulating gold and reducing its dollar dependency.But it is by no means the only country doing this.Saudi Arabia was “caught” a fortnight ago secretly buying 160 tonnes of gold in Switzerland—kudos to Jan Nieuwenhuijs for the scoop. “One thing is for certain,” says Jan. “Saudi Arabia owns much more gold than it wants the world to believe.”This is significant because Saudi Arabia was such a key player in establishing the petrodollar in the early 1970s after the US came off the gold standard, enabling the dollar to retain its status as the global reserve currency.Saudi Arabia could be quietly repositioning itself as an ally of the next global superpower. It could also, as we shall see, be at the heart of a new global payments system.The new international payments system which bypasses the US dollar

Even if you're good at acting confident, you may be giving off signs that you feel "less than" other people. Low self-esteem can have the effect of pushing good people away from you, and this in turn makes it harder to grow in confidence. In this video from my archive, I teach about what I call "the underdog effect" -- the unspoken signals you may be giving off, that you don't feel good about yourself, and what you can do to free yourself from trauma energy and relate to other people freely, as yourself.

Expleo, a global engineering, technology and consulting service provider, has announced research findings which show that 31% of businesses in Ireland reserve budget to pay ransoms in the event of successful cyberattacks. The survey also found that despite most organisations tackling multiple cyber-threats on an ongoing basis, only a small proportion expect to fall victim to a cyber-attack in the next 12 months. In anticipation of the launch of its Business Transformation Index 2024, Expleo's analysis surveyed medium- to large-sized businesses across the island of Ireland, uncovering the impact and prevalence of cybersecurity threats. It found that the payment of ransoms, and the expectation of paying them, is embedded in many organisations' cybersecurity strategies. In the last 12 months alone, 33% of businesses have paid a ransom to cyber-criminals. The research found that one-third of enterprises have been severely impacted by an incident within their organisation in the last 12 months, while 31% have been severely impacted by a cybersecurity incident in their supply chain. Given the devastating impact that cyber-attacks have on business operations and customer trust, the research found that businesses are preparing for significant investments in cybersecurity in the next 12 months. Expleo's research found that the average enterprise in Ireland will spend €1.18M on cybersecurity in the next 12 months with one in seven spending more than this. Signalling what this could be spent on for some, a sizeable proportion (27%) of organisations reported that their security technologies and processes are outdated. Meanwhile, a quarter of businesses admitted that they do not invest enough in cybersecurity. Overall, the survey pointed to an acceptance among businesses in Ireland that they will fall victim to cyberattacks, with 29% saying they anticipate this in the next 12 months. However, this is far lower than the proportion of businesses who fell victim to cyberattacks in the last 12 months. Half of all businesses admitted that their defences were breached by a ransomware attack in the last 12 months, rising to 53% of businesses who fell victim to social engineering attacks. In fact, of the 89% of businesses who said they were targeted with social engineering attacks in the last 12 months, 60% reported that the attacks resulted in a security breach. The majority of businesses have also been targets of voice-cloning, phishing, whaling (phishing attacks on senior figures in the organisation), malware and AI-powered attacks in the past year, with success rates of between 40% and 50% across all cyberattacks. Rob McConnell, Global Solutions Director, Expleo Group, said: "Given the high success rates of known cyber-attack attempts, our research shows that if businesses have avoided falling victim to one type of attack, they have probably not been so fortunate with another. We have reached the point where it is not if you will be targeted, but when and how often. Every single business should expect to be targeted by sophisticated attacks on an ongoing basis. It is only with this level of pragmatism that they will be able to deploy the defences needed to combat or detect these advances. "At the most basic level, enterprises must be confident that they are investing enough in cybersecurity and that their systems and processes are constantly being updated and reinforced. But that will only go so far in protecting them. Organisations must adopt zero-trust frameworks which mean even the CEO is not trusted by the network. "This is the reality of doing business anywhere in the world today. Businesses that accept this can adopt a culture of openness that will remove some of the blame game associated with cybersecurity. In doing so, they will be able to work proactively towards a more robust organisation with the mindset and infrastructure needed to mitigate risk." See more stories here.

It is in the Middle East that Labour's ‘progressive realist' foreign policy will be most tested – especially in the context of the Israel-Palestine conflict.  Signalling the importance of the Middle East to the new government, Foreign Secretary David Lammy visited Israel and the Palestinian Territories just over a week after Labour's election victory. The UK's distinct regional profile has faded in recent years as London has approached the Middle East in broad alignment with the US and focused on concluding trade deals rather than pursuing high-level diplomatic engagements. Will the UK under a Labour government seek to carve out a more distinct regional approach and play a more prominent role in the Middle East? Host Neil Melvin is joined by Dr Burcu Ozcelik, RUSI Senior Research Fellow for Middle East Security, and Dr Michael Stephens, RUSI Senior Associate Fellow, to answer this and more.

Why does Danny believe that TAM is "noise" and should not be used to assess an investment? Why does Danny believe that stage, sector and geo-specific funds are BS? Why does Danny believe there are no IPO windows? Are IPO markets always open to the best? Why does Danny believe that signalling is BS and does not exist today? 3. Lessons from the Biggest Wins and Losses: What are Danny's biggest lessons from Index's $BN win in King (Candy Crush)? How did the Discord deal come to be? What are Danny's biggest takeaways from it? What are Danny's biggest reflections from losing 10s of millions on Nasty Gal? What is Danny's biggest advice to a new investor today? 4.

After recently rereading Thucydides, GC asks, "Fire-signals of an attack were also raised towards Thebes; but the Plataeans in the town at once displayed a number of others, prepared beforehand for this very purpose, in order to render the enemy's signals unintelligible."  I would have imagined that a fire signal was quite simple, fire or no fire. This implies much greater sophistication.  What is known about this?' Join us on Patron patreon.com/ancientwarfarepodcast  

The enemy is cracking, and the signs are global. Desperation and disruption breeds poor decisions. Why so obsessed with Russia? Creating enemies helps to divert attention. If it wasn't for double standards. The large structure of payoffs and the head of the snake. Did the dead chef have a secondary phone? It's Africa time. Embargo's used as a weapon can leave countries defenseless. Drones are the new hot export. For the record, Trump called all of this. Eddie Haymour and the cultural struggle of an island playground. When Africa comes into focus, it's the beginning of the end. The UN system has been replaced and China are now the peacekeepers. Yes, that means sanctions on the United States. Setting up the coup plotters in Niger, the last US stronghold. President Barzoum is out. Wasn't Blinken just there? The French pulled out of Burkina Faso six months ago. Who knew? Signalling strategic importance. So many contractors in the region. A new trafficking hub in a central desert. The Dogons, the Sahel Region of Mali, and an Islamic terror belt. Who created all this? How the coups affect us. ECOWAS sanctions. Semiconductors, gallium, germanium, oil and gas. Why did we stop mining? We are getting our asses kicked, because our current people have no geopolitical clue. Even the aliens know we're the bad guys. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
