In this episode, Rusty and Robyn talk with Eben Burr, President of Toews Asset Management. Eben came to the financial industry with an unusual background. With degrees in architectural history and product design, he studied architecture in Paris, designed products, and worked in NYC real estate market, before eventually landing at Toews. That said, the common thread throughout Eben's career has been a focus on user experience — a skill that turned out to be a huge asset at Toews.  Eben talks with Rusty and Robyn about preparing for a potential bear market,  hedging portfolios against inflation, and bringing introspection to investing. Key Takeaways [06:45] - Are we in a superbubble? [10:52] - Are advisors ready for a bear market in the stocks? [15:58] - Some evidence-based findings on inflation. [19:30] - What's the hedge equity approach? [24:47] - Keeping up with quick volatility and market downdraft. [26:14] - Advice on unconstrained fixed income strategies. [27:48] - The importance of behavioral finance. [30:50] - A balance of empathy, integrity, and confidence. [32:54] - Why introspection is underrated. [34:54] - Eben's personal investing practices. [37:23] - Eben's book and podcast recommendations. Quotes [27:13] - “We've gotten so complacent with thinking about S&P large caps that we no longer have this idea of true diversification, where there's intentionally something underperforming, right? There's intentionally something not going well.” - Eben Burr [29:14] - “Seeing someone really compelling at a conference is not likely to change your behavior. There is a deep, deep gulf between inspiration and implementation. So we're working every day with advisors to help them improve their communication, portfolio construction (which is really important in behavior), and implement structure so that the advisor practice is really embracing behavioral change on all levels. Really you need to look at things like client delight and retention, as well as just their understanding. All those things come into play.” - Eben Burr [33:26] - “Know your strengths and weaknesses. I mean, introspection, I think is so fantastically underrated in American society. You know, we're amazing doers as Americans, right? We're just like, give me something to do and I will do it to death but don't ask me to think about it after I've done it. Cause I don't want to do that.” - Eben Burr Links  Eben Burr on LinkedIn Toews Asset Management "The IVth Crusade" by Bolt Thrower Ol'e Nessie by Mastodon Rise Above by Black Flag Jeremy Grantham Super Bubble Comments Calling a Super Bubble: Front Row With Jeremy Grantham | YouTube ‘SNL': Pete Davidson, Jack Harlow Deliver Eminem-Inspired Rap Explaining NFTs | RollingStone Behavioral Investing Institute Brian Portnoy Advisor Communication for Bubbles and Market Crises Toews Economic and Capital Markets Update 1Q22 Importance of Emotional Intelligence Attention Robinhood power users: Most day traders lose money by Bob Pisani | CNBC Cocoa Barn NYC  Odd Lots Podcast Standard Deviations Podcast Makers and Takers: The Rise of Finance and the Fall of American Business by Rana Foroohar Alexander Hamilton: A Life by Willard Sterne Randall Downtown by Pete Hamill The Fourth Turning: An American Prophecy - What the Cycles of History Tell Us About America's Next Rendezvous with Destiny by William Strauss Blast Beats The 10 best fictional architects | The Guardian Meditation Super Bubble Bubble Gum S&P 500 L'Ecole Bleue Monty Python The Towering Inferno Fountainhead Wesley Snipes Paul Newman John Cleese The history of inflation in the United States Investor Behavior in a Market Crisis Investments and Wealth Monitor Toews Agility Shares ETF's Connect with our hosts Rusty Vanneman Robyn Murray Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify Google Podcasts 0348-OPS-2/23/2022

In the U.S., especially among younger generations, polling shows diminished enthusiasm for capitalism and lower confidence that capitalism can deliver fair outcomes. Meanwhile, many who believe in capitalism recognize the need to confront its weaknesses. In this episode, we explore how capitalism can generate economic growth and opportunity, as well as how it can reinforce and accentuate disparities in wealth and political power.   0:55     The benefits of capitalism 3:18     Adam Smith, David Hume, and The Scottish Enlightenment 5:43     Growing Income Inequality and The Rigged System 11:08   Declining life expectancy for white working class in the U.S. 15:00   The urban versus rural divide 17:37   Ideas for addressing capitalism's challenges   Links: The Infidel and The Professor: David Hume, Adam Smith, and The Friendship That Shaped Modern Thought, Dennis C.

IMCA Conference - Recently appointed as the Financial Times Associate Editor Rana was Formerly the Economics Analyst at CNN, with Newsweek and Time, and spoke to the conference attendees on the topic of "Things that worry me and things that don't in the world economy."  Listen to what Rana sees as important and unimportant on the world stage.

Right now, only 15% of the money that flows out of financial institutions is being invested in businesses. The other 85%? It stays in a closed loop that contributes to the “financialization” of our economy. That’s the argument put forth by Rana Foroohar, in her book, Makers and Takers: The Rise of Finance and the Fall of American Business. In this conversation, Foroohar lays out not only the core argument of her book, but also ties today’s extraordinary social shifts to a long term trend of financialization in our economy.

When did the arguments for free trade and the benefits of immigration go out of fashion? Why is the case for scaling back the power of the financial industry under attack by the Trump administration? Richard and Jim spoke to three experts for this episode of “Fix It Shorts.” Rana Foroohar, explains why the power of Wall Street distorts the economy. “The key lessons of the crisis of 2008 still remain unlearned,” she says. “Our financial system is just as vulnerable as ever.” Rana is the author of "Makers and Takers: The Rise of Finance and the Fall of American Business," She is also the Associated Editor and the Global Business Columnist for the Financial Times. "One of the prizes, one of the treasures of democracy is freedom of thought, freedom of action, freedom of movement," says Peter Coy, Economics Editor of Bloomberg Businessweek. He argues that immigration, especially legal immigration of skilled workers, is a plus for the economy. Economist Ruchir Sharma, author of the book “The Rise and...

This was the year that defied predictions — the United Kingdom did indeed vote to leave the European Union, Donald Trump will be the country's 45th president and the stock market is soaring. With the economy still going steady (GDP increased at rate of 3.5 percent and consumer spending is up), the incoming president's challenge will be to keep growth strong. And with Germany, France and the Netherlands holding elections next year, the future of the European Union remains murky. This week on Money Talking, host Charlie Herman looks at some of the biggest business and economic trends of 2016, and what’s in store for the next year, with  Rob Cox from Reuters Breaking Views and Rana Foroohar, author of “Makers & Takers: The Rise of Finance & the Fall of American Business."

More than eight years after the financial meltdown, we still have a lot to learn, says our guest, CNN global economic analyst Rana Foroohar. "The rise of finance has actually kind of eaten the rest of the economy," Rana tells this in this "Fix It" episode. "Finance controls the rest of industry. Finance has become the tail that wags the dog." At the same time, the financial industry remains at risk for another hugely destructive collapse. In her book, "Makers and Takers: The Rise of Finance and the Fall of American Business", Rana says only 15% of all the money in financial markets ends up in the real economy in the form of loans to help grow business. The rest is traded and shuffled around the financial system. "Finance is there to serve business. We need to simplify it," Rana says. That means deciding "what kinds of activities in our economy we want to incentivize and then creating the rules around finance to help capital flow to those areas."

The episode is based on a discuss Rana Forhoohar's book, the Makers and Takers: The Rise of Finance and the Fall of American Business. We'll discuss what this book gets correct about the role of finance, and what where its analysis falls short. 

President-elect Donald Trump is calling for swift action to enact his plans for growth. Since Congress is also controlled by Republicans, it could signal a busy start to 2017. Ending regulations put in place by the Obama administration; reforming the tax code; investing in infrastructure projects; revising trade deals; appointing new members to the Federal Reserve; ending Obamacare; those are just some of the items on Trump's economic to-do list. This week on Money Talking, Rana Foroohar, author of "Makers and Takers: The Rise of Finance & the Fall of American Business" and Rob Cox, global editor for Reuters Breaking Views, explain what "Trumponomics" might look like in the first 100 days of his administration — who wins, who loses and what it could mean for the American economy.

John Stumpf, CEO of Wells Fargo, faced another round of criticism, outrage and anger during a Congressional hearing Thursday. It was his second trip to Capitol Hill after the bank agreed to pay $185 million to settle accusations it had engaged in illegal banking activities — specifically, opening more than 2 million accounts on behalf of customers without their knowledge. The bank continues to deny any wrongdoing, but Stumpf is now forfeit $41 million in stock awards and any bonuses this year. Carrie Tolstedt, the executive who ran the branch in question and retired this summer with $124.6 million in stock and options, will have to give up $19 million in stock awards. This week on Money Talking, Rana Foroohar, author of "Makers and Takers: The Rise of Finance & the Fall of American Business" and Sheelah Kolhatkar, staff writer at The New Yorker, take a second look at the increasing anger towards the bank and its consequences.

Recently I had a conversation with a Professor at UC Berkeley about the subject of Power.  In the course of the conversation he referred to what he saw as key centers of power. People who he saw as  exercising real power. He referred to great generals, political leaders and Wall Street. Wall Street was once a reflection of America's business. It was there to serve business. Today Wall Street and the business of finance is it’s own power center. It’s often greater than and in control of the whole of American and even global business. Wall Street has become THE symbol of corporate greed.  Railed against by politicians, analyzed 24/7 on several cable channels, the focus of it’s own newspapers and it’s stars, people like Stephen Schwarzman and Lloyd Blankfein, gracing the covers of magazines. So how did this happen?  How did Wall Street and the business of money become bigger, more powerful and more important than the business it was originally there to serve.   Rana Foroohar, the Assistant Managing Editor in charge of Economics and Business for Time magazine takes us through the history and future in Makers and Takers: The Rise of Finance and the Fall of American Business My conversation with Rana Foroohar:
