Welcome back to Open Book—happy new year. This episode is a rapid-fire Q&A, where I tackle everything from books and Bitcoin to Trump, AI, legacy, and what actually matters in a complicated, noisy world, with no talking points and no filter.
In this conversation, Michael and I dig into a world that feels like it's coming unglued—regime change risks abroad, populism at home, and a Federal Reserve under political pressure.

This is our final episode of the year on Open Book, and I wanted to slow things down for a moment and take stock of what we've built together. Over the past year, we sat down with extraordinary authors, historians, thinkers, and storytellers—people who spent years wrestling with ideas so we could absorb them in hours.

This conversation dives into inflation, affordability, and why the Federal Reserve's next moves will shape markets heading into 2026. We unpack Trump's pressure on interest rates, the politics behind choosing the next Fed chair, and how global liquidity—from AI-driven growth to the yen carry trade—ripples through stocks, currencies, and crypto. Along the way, we explore why Bitcoin's stalled momentum may be a contrarian signal rather than the end of the story. Michael Novogratz is the Founder and CEO of Galaxy Digital.

Mike and I discuss why we're "nervous bulls" on markets—with the Fed cutting rates and Trump pumping money into the economy, valuations look attractive, but an exploding wealth inequality gap and growing political backlash could trigger a revolution that ends the bull market. We dive into housing affordability (half of America earns below what's needed to buy a home), tokenization's global impact, Abu Dhabi's rise as a financial hub, and what economic warning signs would make us turn bearish.

I am excited to share this conversation with my good friend and investor, Michael Novogratz, to discuss the latest in the state of the markets. We are experimenting with a new format, so please send us your feedback if you have any. This conversation strips away the pretense around Bitcoin's volatility, MicroStrategy's leveraged gamble, and the mainstreaming of speculation with two Wall Street veterans who've traded through every crash and euphoria. From forced liquidation fears to prediction markets disrupting casinos and the slow invasion of crypto into trillion-dollar wealth channels, it's a blunt, unvarnished look at how risk, regulation, and the normalization of gambling are reshaping markets right now.

I'm thrilled to share some incredible insights from my latest podcast episode with Tim Bello, Managing Partner of Merchant Investment Management. Tim's journey in the wealth and asset management industry is nothing short of inspiring, and I can't wait for you to dive into our conversation.Here are some key takeaways and intriguing points we covered:Key Lessons and Ideas: • Early Career Insights: Tim started at Permal, a hedge fund of funds, where he learned that hard work and people always matter. Fun fact: he initially thought a hedge fund was a shrubbery company! • Skybridge Capital Transformation: Tim played a pivotal role in transforming Skybridge into a democratized hedge fund of funds operation, emphasizing the importance of strategic acquisitions and partnerships. • The Birth of Merchant: Inspired by Cheryl Penny's vision for independent wealth management, Tim co-founded Merchant to offer a unique minority, non-controlling capital partnership model. This approach aligns capital with culture and long-term enterprise value. • Leadership Through Volatility: Tim shared valuable leadership lessons, emphasizing the power of fear, the importance of not getting drunk on your own Kool-Aid, and the need for leaders to let their teams breathe and operate independently. • Capital Partnership Philosophy: Merchant focuses on alignment over control, offering equity capital partnerships, custom credit solutions, essential business services, and alternative investment solutions. This holistic approach ensures businesses can grow multigenerationally while maintaining their identity. • People Over Capital: Tim stressed that in evaluating partnerships, people matter more than the capital itself. Understanding the management team, their commitment, and their culture is crucial for long-term success. • Culture as a Non-Negotiable: Ignoring culture in partnerships can lead to misery. Tim highlighted the importance of understanding the energy and culture of potential partners to predict future success. • Personal Definition of Success: For Tim, success is about family, health, and having a real purpose in life. Money is secondary to the love and engagement with his family.Curiosities and Fun Facts: • Tim's journey from thinking hedge funds were shrubbery companies to leading a firm with over 120 partnerships across six countries. • The importance of not rushing to judgment and avoiding emotional reactions in leadership. • The role of capitalism and free enterprise in enabling opportunities and achievements. • Tim's personal mantra: “Pay attention to the little things, for one day you'll realize they were the big things.”I hope these highlights spark your curiosity and entice you to listen to the full episode.
