On today's episode, Clay is joined by Joseph Shaposhnik to discuss the launch of his new ETF, Rainwater Equity. The Rainwater Equity ETF just launched on June 18th, 2025, under the ticker RW, and its objective is to compound capital at an above-average rate by investing in publicly listed recurring revenue businesses. The fund Joseph managed at his previous firm compounded at 16.7% since 2015, versus the S&P 500's 13.1% over that same time period. It was also the top-performing fund out of 343 in its US Large Cap Core Equity category by Nasdaq eVestment. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: 00:00 - Intro 02:39 - Joseph's lessons from spending a day with Peter Lynch. 12:09 - Why the active management industry is broken and how Joseph has set out to fix it. 22:12 - Why Bill Miller invested in Joseph's new ETF. 28:25 - Why recurring revenue is the ultimate business model. 40:11 - Whether any of the Magnificent 7 companies fit into Joseph's recurring revenue framework. 46:35 - The role that valuation plays in Joseph's quality investing framework. 55:30 - Joseph's top stock pick to hold for the next 20 years. 01:03:00 - Why Joseph is attracted to the aerospace aftermarket industry. 01:08:09 - Why Joseph chose the ETF structure over the mutual fund. 01:10:53 - How Joseph determined the appropriate position sizing for his fund.

Sauna Talk #112: Norway's Badstuprat from London

It was the morning after the recent British Sauna Summit in London. Stig Arild Pettersen Secretary General of the Norwegian Sauna Association and I meet up at London's Hackney Baths, which is a perfect backdrop for us to discuss the “Badstu Boom” taking place in Norway and the US. As part of his Secretary General role, Stig heads up the Norweigen version of Sauna Talk – Badstuprat, a title gently borrowed from yours truly and this program. From Britain and beyond Britain, having their own “brilliant” bathing renaissance, drew both Stig from the East and me from the West for the Sauna Summit. Our Sauna Talk podcast on the bench dives into the comparing and contrasting of sauna culture in each of our countries. And within hours of this recording, I flung my backpack over my shoulder to fly from London to Oslo to experience the Badstu boom myself. And, there's something wonderful about talking about a countries sauna boom, then touching down within hours and hitting the bench with some fellow sauna nuts in their native land. Stig and I are kindred spirits on several levels. Proponents of good heat, and positive vibrations of a culture reinventing and rediscovering itself. As example, there are pockets in North America where sauna has been woven into the tapestry for generations – places like the Upper Peninsula Michigan, Northern Minnesota, Thunder Bay Ontario – all places where “the big three” 1. ethnic migration, four distinct seasons, natural cold water elements abound. Norwegian Sauna Association But back to Norway. Stig and I discuss how sauna, badstu is in the DNA of all Norweigens. Like in Finland, a hop skip and jump over Sweden to the East, sauna action can be anthropologically documented back thousands of years. One look at the photos of Norweigen Sauna Association board members – young smiling healthy faces – and you get a flavor of who is helping bolster the Badstu boom. And for me, these are the kind of people I am very comfortable with sharing the sauna bench, and beyond. Lasse Eriksen, with a full page sauna resume and two time guest to Sauna Talk, Ragna Marie Fjeld, Secretary General Oslo Sauna Association, Knut Lerhol – if beers weren't $12 a piece in Norway, and a rental car the equivalent of a monthly salary, well, Norway would be a place to spend a month between 180f. and cold water fjord cold plunges. The Sauna Talk Global series continues.. Good heat knows no borders. And on the bench from London, let's welcome Stig from Norway, special guest hello with Mark from Great Britain, and yours truly from the United States.

Bevisen mot Stig Engström prövas i en iscensatt rättegång. Erfarna kriminalkommissarien Bosse Åström saknar förhör med Skandiamannen som misstänkt. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Klockan är 23.19 när Stig Engström stämplar sitt stämpelkort och går mot dörrarna på sin arbetsplats Skandia i centrala Stockholm. Det är den 28 februari 1986 och två minuter senare ska Sveriges statsminister Olof Palme bli skjuten.Skandiamannens egna ord på band– Jag förstod av blodet att det hade varit ett skott, säger Stig Engström, även kallad Skandiamannen, i det första polisförhöret.Tidigare kriminalkommissarien Bosse Åström minns att han morgonen efter skrek rakt ut när han såg nyheten på tv.– Där stod folk och sörjde och kastade in rosor på brottsplatsen, säger Bosse Åström.Över 30 år senare, på en presskonferens 2020, läggs polisutredningen ned.

Juridiska institutionen vid Lunds universitet bestämmer sig för att iscensätta en rättegång i maj 2025, för att pröva bevisen mot Stig Engström.Men Bosse är skeptisk, då Stig Engström bara är förhörd som vittne och aldrig som en misstänkt.– Jag tror och jag hoppas verkligen att han hade tyckt att det här var bra och att han hade känt att han fick lite upprättelse, säger Lena Wahlberg, docent i juridik vid Lunds universitet.I det här avsnittet av Brottsutredarna kommenterar Bosse Åström, en av Sveriges främsta utredare av grova brott, bevisningen i en av världens största polisutredningar.

What if your biggest leadership advantage… was knowing when to say less?Today's guest is Hans Stig Moller, CEO of Odyssey Logistics—a global logistics powerhouse that moves freight across 130 countries. But here's the twist: Hans doesn't lead with volume. He leads with calm. Curiosity. And radical humility.Raised in Denmark, shaped by gritty experience in the shipping yards, and guided by a deeply people-first mindset, Hans opens up about what it really takes to earn trust at scale—without burning out or losing yourself in the title.In this episode, you'll hear how a moment behind the scenes in accounting forever changed how Hans views “leading by example”… how a career setback turned into an MBA on steroids… and why he believes listening—truly listening—is one of the most underrated executive skills.We also go deep on how he tracks his time like a venture investment, why he says AI is transforming logistics quarter by quarter, and how his Danish roots still shape every boardroom and town hall he steps into.If you're leading a team, navigating growth, or just trying to become a more grounded, strategic version of yourself—this one will hit home.-----Follow Hans on LiinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hans-stig-moller/Learn more about Oddessy Logistics: https://odysseylogistics.com/-----Connect with the Host, #1 bestselling author Ben FanningSpeaking and Training inquiresSubscribe to my Youtube channelLinkedInInstagramTwitter

In this episode, Clay explores When Genius Failed by Roger Lowenstein, the gripping story of the rise and fall of Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM).  Founded by Wall Street's brightest minds, including Nobel Prize-winning economists, LTCM generated astronomical returns using complex mathematical models and extreme leverage—until a financial crisis in 1998 exposed its fatal flaws. Clay also discusses the dangers of overconfidence, the illusion of diversification, and why excessive leverage can be a ticking time bomb.  Additionally, he shares details on an exclusive value investing event hosted by TIP in Big Sky, Montana, in September 2025. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: 00:00 - Intro 03:34 - How John Meriwether and a team of Wall Street's brightest minds, including Nobel laureates, built a hedge fund that seemed invincible, using sophisticated financial models and extreme leverage. 25:55 - LTCM's reliance on mathematical models that assumed markets behaved rationally, leading them to underestimate the possibility of extreme events. 48:30 - How the Russian debt default triggered widening credit spreads, exposing LTCM's overleveraged positions and leading to catastrophic losses. 54:49 - Why LTCM's failure posed systemic risks to the global financial system, forcing the Fed to coordinate a rescue with major Wall Street banks. 01:08:17 - The dangers of excessive leverage, overconfidence in financial models, and the mistaken belief that markets always revert to historical norms. 01:15:09 - How to attend our new value investing event in Big Sky, Montana, bringing together passionate investors for deep discussions and meaningful connections.
