If you want to operate a truck over 26,000 pounds, earn money for doing it, and cross state lines… then you need to have a Commercial Driver's License (CDL). Truck drivers are essential to the economy, and so having a CDL is a real asset. It offers job security and flexibility, as well as solid earnings and great benefits. In fact, CDLs are so valuable that even people who haven't earned one are willing to break the rules to get one. But having unqualified commercial drivers on the road is a danger to everyone. In this episode of the Art of Supply podcast, Kelly Barner covers the right way and the wrong way to get a CDL: Safety statistics associated with large trucks and their drivers How to get a CDL and what the pass/fail rate is Recent news stories that illustrate what can go wrong when the administration of CDLs is not handled properly or when licensed drivers aren't qualified Links: Kelly Barner on LinkedIn Art of Supply LinkedIn newsletter  Art of Supply on AOP Subscribe to This Week in Procurement

Almost every night, a group of volunteers sets up a table of supplies. Their goal is to assist everyone who is being released; from bottled water to a ride home. But sometimes, it's a challenge when people are released well after midnight.

NIO's incredible transformation from $3.40 death spiral to potential profitability - this is the turnaround story every EV investor needs to understand.

In this short podcast episode, Bryan explains how leaky ducts can lead to sweaty, uncomfortable houses. Moisture issues are common all across humid and "green-grass" climates in the United States. Hot, unconditioned attics and crawl spaces also often have high dew points, which can cause moisture problems in those spaces. Plants also release moisture, so agricultural communities also have those special considerations. There are several HVAC and building design factors that can prevent or worsen growth from moisture problems. Duct leakage is one of those factors. Return and supply leaks can cause moisture to enter the ductwork. Return leaks suck in air from around the leak. Supply leaks create a pressure differential that can cause mechanically-driven infiltration (MAD-AIR); when a supply duct leak puts the attic under positive pressure, somewhere else has to go under negative pressure. There are lots of gaps and cracks around boots and can lights, which provides pathways for hot, moist air to seep into the envelope. Longer runtimes and keeping the fan on will worsen these conditions. We need to control the source of moisture and then seal the ducts and boots before we focus on the equipment. Visual inspections at the connections and boots will go a long way, but there are also plenty of tools for testing duct leakage, especially by Retrotec and TEC. You can also measure house pressure to the outdoors with the air handler running and all the doors closed, but that's a qualitative measurement that has a lot of other variables to consider.    Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

On this week's episode of Best Ever CRE Show, Matt Faircloth and John Chang are bringing you another fireside chat. They go back and forth on multifamily's next five years, debating rent ceilings versus demand tailwinds, class-by-class dynamics, and why construction tariffs and replacement costs could freeze new supply even as Gen Z household formation builds pressure. John explains how treasury issuance and the 10-year may keep long rates sticky, why office could be a dark-horse recovery play, and how hotels trading below replacement cost create near-term opportunity. They wrap with recession risk, practical stress tests, and when it's smarter to build reserves or sell before the cycle turns.

Interview with Tim Harrison, Managing Director of Ionic Rare EarthsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/ionic-rare-earths-asxixr-us-attracted-to-magnet-recycler-7488Recording date: 2nd September 2025The rare earth metals market has entered a new era following China's April 2025 export restrictions on seven critical rare earth elements, creating unprecedented opportunities for alternative suppliers. Australian-listed Ionic Rare Earth (ASX:IXR) has emerged as a strategic beneficiary of this supply chain disruption through its advanced magnet recycling technology.China's export ban demonstrated its monopolistic control over materials essential for modern technology and defense applications, immediately creating supply shortages and price volatility. Ionic Rare Earth's Managing Director Tim Harrison reports the company has been "inundated on requests to access the dysprosium and terbium" from their Belfast demonstration plant, with dysprosium commanding three times Chinese quoted prices in European markets.The geopolitical catalyst has triggered massive government and corporate investment in supply chain security. The US Department of Defense invested $400 million in MP Materials, establishing a $110/kg floor price for neodymium-praseodymium, effectively doubling available prices to non-Chinese producers. Apple followed with a $500 million investment in recycling infrastructure, signaling corporate recognition of supply chain vulnerabilities.Ionic Rare Earth's competitive advantage lies in its proprietary recycling process that produces high-purity separated oxides using 85% less capital than traditional mining. The technology focuses on separating four elements representing 85-90% of rare earth supply chain value, enabling rapid deployment across multiple jurisdictions without mining permits or social license challenges.With comprehensive patent protection, strategic partnerships providing feedstock access through EMR, and government support across the US, UK, and Europe, Ionic Rare Earth is positioned to capitalize on the structural shift toward recycling-based supply chains. The European Critical Raw Materials Act mandates 25% of rare earth supply from recycling by 2030, creating additional policy tailwinds for the company's expansion strategy.View Ionic Rare Earths' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/ionic-rare-earths-ltd

Interview with Rafael Moreno, Managing Director & CEO of Viridis Mining & MineralsRecording date: 2nd Sept 2025Viridis Mining & Minerals (ASX:VMM) is advancing the Colossus ionic clay rare earth project in Brazil's Minas Gerais state, focused on producing high-value rare earth elements neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, and terbium (NdPr-DyTb) with very low radioactive content. The project benefits from simple free-dig mining of shallow deposits and straightforward atmospheric-pressure processing, enabled by a unique ionic clay geological formation. These factors contribute to superior economics, with a pre-feasibility study (PFS) estimating a net present value (NPV) of US$1.41 billion and annual operating cash flow around US$200 million at current rare earth prices.Colossus's grades are 4 to 6 times higher than comparable Chinese projects, supporting competitive costs even at lower commodity prices. Regulatory advantages include a radiological exemption from Brazil's nuclear regulator, which keeps environmental approvals at the state level rather than federal, accelerating permitting timelines from years to weeks. The project also features strong environmental credentials, with 100% renewable power, 75% water recycling, and immediate site rehabilitation.Financing momentum is strong, with up to US$30 million committed from leading Brazilian asset managers and ongoing discussions with Brazil's development bank BNDES. Offtake talks span Brazil, Europe, and North America, positioning Colossus as a globally relevant supply source. Near-term milestones include imminent environmental approval, a demonstration plant operational by Q1 2026, mineral resource updates by mid-2026, and a definitive feasibility study (DFS) by June 2026.Led by CEO Rafael Moreno, with deep project execution experience, Viridis is developing Colossus to meet growing global demand driven by electric vehicles, renewable energy, and supply chain diversification concerns. The project's combination of high-grade ore, regulatory fast-tracking, operational simplicity, and sustainable practices create a compelling investment thesis for establishing a non-Chinese rare earth supply focused on permanent magnets, with a potential 60-year mine life ensuring long-term value and market resilience.View Viridis Mining & Minerals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/viridis-metals-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

What if your portfolio could help advance justice, compassion, and human flourishing?Aligning your investments with your faith isn't just about avoiding harm—but actively shaping the world around them for good. Stella Tai joins us to talk about how investors are putting their values to work in the marketplace.Stella Tai is the Stewardship Investing Impact and Analysis Manager for Praxis Investment Management, an underwriter of Faith & Finance.Faith-Based Investing in Action: Praxis' 2024 Impact ReportFor many believers, investing isn't just about building wealth—it's about aligning financial decisions with faith values. Praxis Investment Management, a pioneer in faith-based investing since 1994, continues to demonstrate how Christians can utilize their investments to promote justice, compassion, and tangible change in the world. In its latest Impact Report, Praxis highlights how investor dollars are transforming communities and influencing some of the world's largest companies.Shaping a more just and compassionate world is something that's important to many investors, particularly those of faith.

Through investment partnerships, the clinic now helps more than 400 families.This is redemptive investing in action. It's about fostering human flourishing, not just financial gain.Praxis also partners with Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) and credit unions that serve neighborhoods often overlooked by traditional banking systems.

When our faith aligns with our financial actions, even small changes can move markets toward justice.This includes proxy voting, which Praxis views as a form of corporate discipleship—using investor influence to advocate for fair labor, environmental stewardship, and other critical issues.How to Get StartedStart by asking yourself a simple but important question: “Do my investments reflect my faith values?” If the answer is no—or you're not sure—consider talking with a financial professional who understands faith-based investing.

France is the world's most-visited country—and one of the hottest STR markets. In this episode of the STR Data Lab, Jamie Lane sits down with Louis Andrews, Director and President of OVO Network, to unpack how the French market works today and where it's headed next.Louis explains OVO's software-first model (their own PMS + direct booking platform) and why 75–80% of their bookings come direct. We dig into how they maintain a 4.8+ review score at scale without handling on-the-ground ops, what makes French demand unique (heavy domestic travel, car and rail trips, repeat family holidays), and how new regulations are reshaping urban vs. leisure destinations. Louis also shares the economics behind OVO's approach (a distribution fee on direct bookings), the curation bar for five-star chalets, and the biggest competitive threat he sees on the horizon: increasingly automated PMS tools.What you'll learnHow France books: A culture of domestic, family, drive-to travel—and why mountains keep winning.Direct booking at scale: OVO's tech stack, SEO/digital strategy, and the data advantages of owning the funnel.Quality > quantity: Curating only five-star-worthy homes and training local concierges to protect guest experience.Profit model: Why charging a distribution fee on direct reservations changes the unit economics.Market outlook: Supply saturation post-COVID, tighter rules in cities, and why PMS automation may disrupt PMs.This episode is for hosts, PMs, and investors eyeing Europe—especially anyone curious how to drive direct bookings, keep reviews high, and navigate France's evolving regulatory landscape.You don't want to miss this episode!~~~~Signup for AirDNA for FREE

“We're committed to supporting U.S. suppliers involved in every key stage of the chip-making process — from the earliest stages of research and development, to final fabrication and packaging.” - Sabih Khan, COO at Apple In April, President Trump said that he wants the Apple iPhone to be manufactured in the United States.  The iPhone's 2,700 components currently come from 187 suppliers in 28 countries, according to an article from the Financial Times, and less than 5 percent of the total components are manufactured domestically.  Apple ships 438 iPhones every minute, and 85 percent of them are assembled by Foxconn, with its dozens of locations in China. Can Apple reshore the iPhone? We're all watching to find out. In this episode of the Art of Supply podcast, Kelly Barner looks into whether this lofty goal could become a reality: What incentives does Apple have to make this work, and what are the disincentives to tolerate failure? How are they investing domestically in terms of capacity, partnerships, and talent? Are they thinking big enough to address the raw materials required in their silicon and battery supply chains?  Links: Kelly Barner on LinkedIn Art of Supply LinkedIn newsletter  Art of Supply on AOP Subscribe to This Week in Procurement

In this episode, Ben Kizemchuk joins the show to discuss his “Four Fs” macro framework – Fiscal Dominance, Financial Repression, Fiat Currency, & Passive Flows – arguing that we're in a unique historical moment where all four are converging at once. He explains how fiscal spending reshapes growth, why financial repression and passive flows stabilize markets, and how fiat currency enables this entire regime. Ben also shares how these dynamics blur the line between the stock market and the economy, setting the stage for an AI-driven future.

Keys to the Future: Navigating Today's Housing Market Together In this Keep It Simple Podcast episode, host Joey Badinger joins advisors Adam Morse and Tommy Williams at AssetBuilder's Plano HQ to unpack what's really going on in today's housing market—and how families can work together to help Gen Z and Millennials become homeowners. They trace the arc from early 20th-century mortgages to post-WWII suburbia, the 1970s rate shock, 2000s subprime bubble, post-COVID surge, and today's challenging mix of higher rates, compressed affordability, insurance spikes, student debt, and constrained supply. What You'll Learn Housing history in a hurry: From 5-year loans and big down payments to the 30-year mortgage, GI Bill suburbs, the 1970s rate peak, the subprime crisis, and COVID-era price jumps. Why affordability is strained now: Home-price-to-income ratios, higher mortgage rates vs. locked-in low-rate owners, insurance costs, and student debt. Supply vs. demand realities: Aging-in-place, building restrictions, private investors in starter homes, and why listings can rise even as affordability falls. Programs that help first-time buyers: Where to look for down-payment assistance, reduced-rate programs (e.g., HomeReady, Home Possible), and local buyer education courses. Family strategies that work: How grandparents/parents can gift earlier, reframe big-ticket events (e.g., weddings) vs. down payments, and coach smart savings habits. Episode Highlights Rates matter—but so does the price base. A 6–7% mortgage is tough; the bigger problem is prices outpacing wages. Locked-in effect: Owners with 2–3% mortgages aren't moving—tightening the starter-home pipeline. Costs beyond the mortgage: Insurance premiums and maintenance have significantly outpaced wages. Education pays: City/county first-time buyer classes can prevent costly surprises (inspections, foundation/piping, etc.). Timing gifts can change trajectories: Front-loading support (within a plan) can beat waiting for inheritances.
