Matt and Jono are joined by Brien (NRL Physio) to tackle the chaos of the Round 15 major bye. With Mark Nawaqanitawase unavailable due to Origin duties, SuperCoach's are scrambling to work out whether it's worth tearing up their squads just to field 13 players this weekend that aren't in the long term plans.

The desk at RBC Capital Markets that sits behind 90% of Canada's ETF market has a view of where flows are really going — and it's not what most advisors expect.Pierre Daillie sits down with Valerie Grimba, Head of Global ETF Strategy at RBC Capital Markets, for a wide-ranging conversation about the forces quietly reshaping how Canadian advisors build portfolios. Valerie's team serves as designated broker to roughly 300 ETF mandates and acts as authorized participant across the majority of the Canadian ETF market — giving her a real-time, flow-level view of investor behaviour that almost nobody else has. From the structural fracture that 2022 opened in the 60/40 model, to the liquidity misconceptions her desk corrects every single day, to the explosive rise of asset allocation ETFs, covered call strategies, AAA CLOs, and precision thematic plays, this conversation covers the full terrain of where the ETF market stands today — and where it is heading.CHAPTERS00:00 — Introduction: The 60/40 failure and Canada's ETF rebuild 02:11 — Valerie's career arc: Bear Stearns, New York, New Zealand, RBC 04:21 — How the RBC ETF market making desk actually works 05:36 — What a designated broker does — and why it matters 08:18 — Flash crashes, Liberation Day, and ETFs as a release valve 10:08 — The RBC market view: yellow flags, narrow breadth, and a 12–18 month outlook 13:29 — How ETF flows changed: from net outflows in risk-off to rotation 14:05 — Gold: zero correlation, the incongruent timing, and the 2026 outlook 15:40 — Higher for longer: what advisors are missing about the rate environment 17:46 — How 2022 changed advisor behaviour and launched a new ETF ecosystem 21:49 — Covered call ETFs: what advisors are still getting wrong 24:19 — Retail vs. institutional: why retail has been outperforming 25:20 — Private assets in an ETF wrapper: the square peg, round hole problem 31:11 — What RBC looks for before taking on a designated broker mandate 32:28 — The Pac-Man of Canadian ETF flows: asset allocation ETFs 36:29 — CAGE, XEQT, FBAL: who is actually buying all-in-one ETFs 38:58 — TLT as widowmaker and the search for yield without duration risk 40:36 — AAA CLOs, active fixed income, and aggregate bond ETFs 43:07 — CTAs, trend following, and the rise of alternatives in Canada 44:30 — Why GIC sectors are becoming antiquated — and what's replacing them 45:48 — DRAM, memory chips, and the new thematic precision playbook 47:11 — Single stock ETFs: access, covered call overlays, and trade-offs 49:07 — The #1 ETF liquidity misconception — and the three layers advisors need to know 53:28 — Best execution practices: limit orders, timing, and when to call the desk #ETF #CanadianETF #ETFInvesting #PortfolioConstruction #CoveredCallETF #AssetAllocation #XEQT #FixedIncome #AlternativeInvestments #WealthManagement #FinancialAdvisor #InvestmentStrategy #ETFLiquidity #RBCCapitalMarkets #MarketOutlook #ThematicETF #PassiveInvesting #ETFTrading #InsightIsCapital #AdvisorAnalyst

In this Daily Editorial, I sit down with TG Watkins, Director of Stocks at Simpler Trading and Editor of the Profit Pilot website and YouTube channel, to parse through the noise of the current macro headlines and focus strictly on what the charts are telling us. As geopolitical tensions, interest rate speculation, and inflation data continue to flood the news cycle, this conversation digs deep into price action to uncover where the real momentum is hiding and where the next big shifts are likely to occur. Here is a summary of the key topics discussed in this episode: Precious Metals Consolidation vs. Copper Strength: An overview of the current sideways movement in gold and silver as they test critical moving averages, contrasted with the undeniable structural strength and underlying demand driving copper and copper equities. Interest Rates, Bond Support, and Oil Dynamics: A technical look at the critical support levels for TLT and bonds, combined with an analysis of why cooling oil prices could soon alleviate the pressure on interest rates. The S&P 500 Equal-Weight Breakout: Why the recent all-time highs in the equal-weight S&P (RSP) reveal a much healthier, broader market breadth than the bearish headlines suggest. AI-Driven Power Generation and Tech Rotations: A discussion on the shifting opportunities within tech, specifically focusing on energy infrastructure, small modular nuclear reactors, and under-the-radar financial stocks. The Airlines and Oil Pairs Trade: How a distinct technical divergence between airline stocks and crude oil reveals a compelling pair-trade opportunity for savvy investors.

Just when Storm fans thought the past five weeks could not get any worse, well, it did. The Rabbitohs inflicting the Storm's sixth straight loss and breaking a 28-year hoo doo of never winning a game in Melbourne, notching up the first victory in style against a hapless Storm outfit who's display was referred to as 'embarrassing' by Head Coach Craig Bellamy who also claimed it was "the most embarrassed I've ever been in my footy life". What went wrong? 34 missed tackles, 14 errors, a completion rate of 65% just to name a few issues. Stormy Daniel believes it is 'between the ears', it is now a mental battle. Storm have forgot how to win and what it takes to conjure up a victory and compete across 80 minutes. Whilst winning is habitual, so too is losing. Melbourne are in one helluva rut and need to scratch and claw their way out of this funk theyve found themselves in by grinding out a win through sheer hard work and doing the basics, the controllable's, the effort areas well. Forgot the flashy stuff. Get into an arm wrestle, get down and dirty and rediscover what it takes to win. Stormy Daniel covers off on the Pathways Report, what's making Storm news including injury update, your listener questions and TLT, team list Tuesday. Has Bellyache rang in the changes he intimated were coming? Will it be enough to take down a fast Dolphins outfit who will be desperate for a win themselves? Hosted on Acast.

When was the last time you have seen a Melbourne Storm completely man handled by a more physical opposition? Hardly never, if not, ever right? After running roughshod over the Warriors with 17 straight wins, back at AAMI Park, many pundits anticipate that streak would extend to 18. This current New Zealand team put that to bed with a dominant display over Melbourne, attacking with their defence, bashing the Storm, dishing out hits that can only be described as brutal. The Storm were devoid of answers. Melbourne struggling to match the Warriors physicality and were unable to win the ruck, seeing the Storm struggle to get outside of their own half and pressure New Zealand. A fourth straight loss, the first time since 2022 and Coach Craig Bellamy if he didn't already, now has quite the task on his hands to turn this situation around - and it doesn't get any easier with the Storm travelling to the nation's capital to take on a rejuventated Raiders team, who have the wood on Melbourne. Stormy Daniel reviews and shares his thoughts on the current predicament Storm are facing, covers off on Pathways, Storm news, your listener questions and TLT, team list Tuesday. Who's in, who's out for the desperate clash with the Green Machine. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Good Friday turned into a Bad Friday for the Melbourne Storm after conceding 50 points for the first time in 23 seasons, the last occasion was way back in 2003 - almost a generation ago. The Storm are now up against history, endeavouring to overcome an 118-year statistic and record, with no team has been successful in winning the premiership after conceding 50 points in the regular season. But the main focus for a Storm team reeling from being smacked by the high flying Panthers is putting a stop to their three game losing streak with it not extending to a fourth loss on the trot. Stormy Daniel reviews the heavy loss to the competition leaders in Penrith, covers off on a pathways report, what's making Storm news, your listener questions and TLT - team list Tuesday. Who's in? Who's out for the Round 6 clash with the Warriors, who themselves are coming off back-to-back losses and will be just as desperate to get back in the winners circle. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Back-to-back losses for the Storm which many in the game refer to as uncharacteristic for a club that prides itself on winning and never dropping consecutive games, let alone now looking down the barrel at three-straight losses for the first time since Season 2022. Stormy Daniel gives his two cents worth of why Melbourne have now given up two half-time leads, pointing to defensive system not being adhered to due to disruptions through injury affecting cohesion and connection.

Fa'alogo, the local Victorian product has grabbed the opportunity to succeed the retired Ryan Papenhuyzen and the early signs are very positive, being effective in both facets of the game. Stormy Daniel was there to get a first hand view at Fa'alogo's work in defence and walked away mighty with Fa'alogo's ability to organise the Storm's front line of defence and his relentless comms (communication) from the back, marshalling players to fill the space and nullify opposition numbers.

In this episode we answer emails from TJ, John and Optimus Bill. We discuss TJ's modified Golden Ratio portfolio and backtests, maximizing withdrawals with flexibility, ZROZ vs. TLT simulated leverage, gambling problems, intermediate accumulation to pay down a mortgage, and assorted allocations questions about mid-caps and other funds.We also talk about our Fairfax CASA fundraiser in our Queen Mary segment and a recent Catching Up to FI presentation at the end.Links:Links:Fairfax CASA Donation Page: Donate - Fairfax CASATJ's Portfolio: testfol.io/?s=gJEgezdqVdyPortfolio Charts Risk Parity style Accumulation Article: Minimize Your Miss – Portfolio ChartsRisk Parity Chronicles ZROZ vs. TLT Analysis: Bond Allocation Sizing - Google SheetsRisk Parity Chronicles KBWP Article: The Search for a Low-Beta Equity Unicorn - by JustinCatching Up to FI Presentation: Catching Up To FI Illinois/Wisconsin Meeting Presentation - YouTubeCatching Up to FI Presentation Slides: The_Risk_Parity_Mission for Catching Up To FI.pdf - Google DriveCatching Up to FI Presentation Summary Video: Catching Up To FI Risk Parity Portfolios Meeting and Presentation.mp4 - Google DriveBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:A listener writes from overseas with a situation that strips retirement down to the essentials: no pension, no Social Security “backup plan,” and a real need to get the portfolio right. We walk through his modified Golden Ratio style allocation using growth and value funds, small-cap value tilts, long-duration Treasury strips, gold, and alternatives like DBMF, then talk about what matters more than a pretty spreadsheet: whether you can live with the drawdowns and keep the plan steady for decades.From there we get practical about retirement withdrawals and the assumptions hiding underneath them. We explain why a 5.5% withdrawal rate can be realistic when you pair it with flexible rules like a floor and ceiling approach, and why “inflation” is not one number that applies to everyone. If you're living abroad, spending in another currency, or even willing to relocate, your personal inflation experience can diverge from CPI, which changes how you should think about risk, resilience, and what flexibility is worth.We also tackle the investor temptations that never seem to go away: debating ZROZ versus TLT, obsessing over duration ratios, and tinkering with allocations when the market gets loud. We share a simple constraint that helps many DIY investors stay sane: build a small sandbox for experiments so your core portfolio stays intact. We finish with an intermediate accumulation question about investing toward a future mortgage payoff, plus a clear framework for why splitting short and long Treasurys can be useful, and why international diversification often shows up as currency exposure in modern markets. Subscribe, share this with a friend who's rebuilding their portfolio, and leave a review with the withdrawal rate question you're trying to answer.Support the show

In this episode, we explore the reality behind infrastructure delivery, from the 47 recommendations of the UK Prime Minister's nuclear regulatory task force to the exploding demand for data centers. In this episode, Mustafa Latif-Aramesh (Partner and Parliamentary Agent at TLT ) joins Ed to examine how overlapping regulation and institutional duplication push developers toward compliance theatre rather than meaningful environmental protection, epitomised by Hinkley Point C's infamous £700 million “fish disco.” The conversation explores what it would take to move the UK from a process-obsessed planning regime to one that rewards outcomes, accelerates delivery, and underpins the next wave of digital and energy infrastructure.Key topics covered:Why the UK's infrastructure planning system prioritises administrative process over real environmental outcomes.How spending £700 million to protect a fraction of a salmon population reveals a breakdown in regulatory proportionality.Whether a single Nuclear Regulatory Commission could cut duplicative red tape and unlock faster decommissioning and new nuclear build.Is the Planning Inspectorate equipped to handle 500 proposed data centres alongside the wider energy transition?Can co-locating Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) with data centres address the sector's “five nines” reliability challenge?About our guestMustafa Latif-Aramesh is a Partner at the law firm TLT, where he specialises in infrastructure planning across the entire energy spectrum from transmission lines and battery storage to wind, solar, and nuclear. He recently served on the Prime Minister's Nuclear Regulatory Task Force, a specialist group established to diagnose why building nuclear capacity in Britain takes so long and to identify solutions for expediting deliveryWorking alongside industry leaders and economists, Mustafa helped author a report containing 47 recommendations designed to eliminate regulatory duplication and shift the system's focus from administrative process to tangible outcomes. Beyond nuclear, he advises on the planning challenges facing the UK's rapidly expanding data center pipeline, advocating for a system that balances environmental standards with the need for critical infrastructure.

Kick off the second full trading week of 2026 with Mark Longo (The Options Insider Media Group) and Uncle Mike Tosaw (St. Charles Wealth Management) as they navigate a market that seemingly "doesn't give an F" about geopolitical turmoil. From potential military interventions to the Fed chair vs. the President, the panel breaks down why the S&P 500 continues to climb a wall of worry while the VIX remains suppressed. In this episode, we break down: The Trading Block: A look at the "Mad New Year" so far. Why is the VIX ignoring the headlines?

Joel Elconin, co-host of the PreMarket Prep show and founder of the Stock Trader Network joins me to outline the key investing themes in US equity markets for 2026. We discuss the upcoming macroeconomic data that matters, and circle around to a number of market sectors, getting his outlook on whether we'll see a continuation or a reversal in the prevailing trends. Key discussion points include: 2025 Market Recap & Broadening Participation – A look at index performance, the shift away from mega-cap dominance, and a broadening out in other sectors from biotech to small caps in the Russell 2000. Macroeconomic Data On Tap – Joel points to jobs data coming out this Friday, inflation data next week, the upcoming supreme court decision regarding tariffs, and in just a few weeks the kick off of Q4 earnings season. Dovish Fed Policy Is Anticipated In Mid-2026 - Joel notes that so far the TLT longer-duration treasuries are not reacting, but typically monetary policy only really affects the short-duration rates. Lower rates should help small caps and be a boon to the financial sector. A Technical Outlook on the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Indexes – Joel shares the technical levels he is watching on a shorter-term basis for support and resistance; but notes that with markets still up in uncharted waters, that there are no easily identifiable resistance levels. Government Defense Budget and New Guidelines Created Volatility In The Defense Stocks – Joel highlights how all the new restrictions from the government with regards to management and company incentives sent defense stock reeling lower, but the announcement of $1.5 Trillion in a military spending package sent them right back higher again. Rotation Trade Into Low P/E and Value Stocks Is The Big Theme at present – There is capital that has rotated out of the Mag 7 leadership and into a broader range of value stocks like Berkshire Hathaway, auto manufacturers like Ford and GM, home builders, healthcare stocks, and consumer staples. Geopolitics are also playing a factor of investors seeking safer brands and investing names.

Hugh Hendry, "The Acid Capitalist," returns to the Julia La Roche Show. Hendry breaks down his "macro compass" portfolio framework: 25% equities (overweight Japanese stocks after their 35-year breakout), 25% US treasuries (buying TLT after a 50% decline), 25% alternatives (Bitcoin over gold due to market cap), and 25% strategic cash. His thesis: the treasury market is so large (100% of GDP) that it's prevented inflation despite massive deficit spending, but AI will cause 20% unemployment within 2-3 years. That unemployment will force governments into redistribution mode, finally breaking the system's ability to contain inflation. He discusses why tech valuations are near peak, why the yen carry trade matters, and why sterling may be the first major currency to collapse as the UK's service economy gets hit hardest by AI displacement.Hendry founded Eclectica Asset Management, a global macro hedge fund that was pretty much uncorrelated to everything in the financial universe. Hugh started Eclectica in 2002 and ran for 15 years before closing in 2017. He made more than 30% in 2008 betting against banks.This episode is brought to you by VanEck.

This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of the Lord's people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God. — 2 Corinthians 9:12 The countries of Sudan and South Sudan are among the world's most difficult places to live in today. Millions of people in these countries have been displaced by civil war, political unrest, and disasters. Yet Jesus continues to be at work. The mission agency I serve provides a training program for pastors and church leaders called Timothy Leadership Training (TLT). Reverend Patrick, a church leader in South Sudan, recently reported that 43 pastors and ministry leaders completed the TLT program and are making a difference in their communities. Though non-Sudanese people cannot generally enter these countries right now, we can still bless and encourage churches and believers there through programs like TLT. This reflects the joy that flows through 2 Corinthians 9. Here Paul celebrates the generosity of the church in Corinth as it gives to bless churches in other lands. And their investment in God's kingdom will result in blessings multiplied for both the giver and the receivers. Most significantly, this work honors Jesus. As we consider our place in God's worldwide mission, we cannot underestimate how our partnership with other ministries can benefit people in places we cannot go. Wherever we are, our generosity can bless Christian brothers and sisters around the world in extraordinary ways. God, help us to grow in the grace of giving. May our generosity minister to others around the world and honor you. Amen.

We discuss some of the charts at Portfolio Charts and some related research, the unexpected problems of complex trusts and the value of simplifying estate planning by giving money away while you are alive and balancing treasury bonds, gold, and equity allocations to create resilient portfolios.If you'd like to move to the front of the email line, please consider donating to the Father McKenna Center at fathermckennacenter.org or through the support page at riskparityradio.com.Links:Portfolio Charts Page O' Charts: Charts – Portfolio ChartsPortfolio Charts Golden Ratio Article: Beautiful Constants and the Golden Ratio Portfolio – Portfolio ChartsJim Sandidge Chaos Paper: RMJ081-ChaosAndRetirementSecurity.pdfDana Anspach Presentation (watch minutes 17 - 59): How to Turn Investments into a Retirement Paycheck in 2023Testfolio Comparison of TLT and VGLT: https://testfol.io/analysis?s=dGUGRbj009NBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:Season 6 kicks off with a deep dive into the powerful analytical tools at Portfolio Charts that can transform how you evaluate investment strategies. Frank unpacks essential charts like Withdrawal Rates and Drawdowns, revealing why understanding a portfolio's behavior during market stress matters more than chasing maximum returns. Through clear explanations and vivid analogies, he demonstrates how risk parity approaches function as the Toyota 4Runners of investment strategies—reliable, versatile, and designed for challenging conditions.The conversation shifts to a listener's complex trust situation, sparking a thoughtful examination of estate planning pitfalls. Frank offers a compelling perspective on legacy planning: rather than creating elaborate structures meant to preserve wealth indefinitely, consider simpler approaches that benefit heirs during your lifetime and avoid unintended family conflicts. His personal approach of allocating roughly 1% of his annual portfolio withdrawals to giving provides a practical model for balancing financial security with meaningful impact.Finally, Frank addresses portfolio construction fundamentals, explaining why Treasury bonds serve as essential "recession insurance" and how to balance them with other assets like gold and equities. He emphasizes that even historically strong performers like gold can experience decade-long drawdowns, reinforcing the need for true diversification across asset classes that respond differently to varying economic conditions.Whether you're new to risk parity investing or refining your existing strategy, this episode delivers valuable insights for creating a resilient portfolio designed to weather market uncertainty while supporting your long-term financial goals.
