Damion 2026 PredictionsThe "Ghost Board" MovementFollowing the 2025 retreat from ESG, a major S&P 500 company (likely in the energy or defense sector) will successfully petition to keep its director bios private for "national security” or “personal safety reasons"Trend starts at a Big Data company using China as an excuse with a single, government-connected director whose identity is kept secret for “national security reasons”By mid-2026, "blind governance" becomes a trend where investors vote for directors identified only by a serial number and a list of "alpha-generating achievements"The “Ghost Board” movement ultimately backfires as shareholders start to vote against subpar achievementsBlackRock and State Street scrap public stewardship for private, encrypted channels with board chairs—Welcome to Dark GovernanceThe 100% Variable Pay CEOCEO Pay routinely targets $1B+ packages, using 100% “at-risk” pay as an excuseThe Rise of "Corporate Sovereignty" ZonesThink the SpaceX "Starbase" model: a major tech or manufacturing firm will strike a deal with a poor red state (like West Virginia or Mississippi, et al) to create a "Special Innovation District" or some other made up name likeAdvanced Innovation ZoneStrategic Innovation CorridorFreedom Technology DistrictAnti-DEI, Pro-ROI Innovation ParkInside these zones, the company provides the police, the utilities, and the "credits/scrip" used at the grocery storeThis revival of the 19th-century company town uses the excuse of "infrastructure efficiency" or “ESG-free zone”The Death of the “Public” Annual MeetingAfter the 2025 proxy season proved shareholders could still be annoying, companies codify mandatory virtual-onlyAI moderators pre-screen questions for “civility” and “relevance,” eliminating most investor dissentShareholders wishing to speak must demonstrate ownership of $1M+—because democracy is not for impoverished nunsElon Musk formally steps back from day-to-day operations at Tesla but calls it an “AI-enabled leadership leverage” and not a full resignation and thus keeps his pay package, with full board approval.Multiple large companies stop using the word “independent” in director bios, replacing it with “objective” or “experienced” or “industry-aligned” or “deeply informed.”Like Europe, board chairs increasingly become the primary public voice on operational and governance issues instead of CEOs, leading to a significant increase in chair pay.A sharp increase in director pay follows due to “heightened complexity and security issues.”The Jay Hoag effect: companies start to exclude attendance data from proxy statements.A company ties massive NEO bonuses to “AI adoption speed,” which becomes completely discretionary and unmeasurable. Starts in Big Data and then happens everywhereMatt 2026 PredictionsWill happen:Sam Altman is caught lying to investors (and no one cares)30% of the S&P 500 will seek to implement a “retail voting” program by the fallHighest retail vote companies: Tesla (~30%), Intel (~30%), AT&T (~30%), Exxon (~30%), Apple (~30%), Pfizer (~30%), Verizon (~25%) - real paragons of board independenceCompanies where executives are suggesting college degrees or elite college degrees are “stupid” do not stop hiring largely from pools of people who have college degrees and/or went to elite colleges25% of CEO pay packages in the US move to “3 year vesting, pretend moonshot, billion plus, no clawback, no strings”Jay Hoag will not be voted off the Netflix boardIn the absence of engagement, precatory proposals, or other shareholder rights, there is one thing for shareholders left: vote no on director campaigns from NON ACTIVISTS (by which I mean institutional investors / pension funds with less than 5% or 13G filers)Specifically - there will be a 150% increase in exempt solicitationsAt least 10% of US large cap companies will have AI “board advisors” - bots that advise boards on legal and governance issuesCould happen:Mass labor movementThe 2025 “badge of honor” that was layoffs, the absolute bonanza of CEO pay, the explosion of “AI billionaires” and “AI took your job” stories, and the attempt to crush labor rights will escalate into the first violent confrontation between employees and their corporate overlordsWidespread strikes will hit, but in the least likely of places: tech and finance, where employees are replaced with AI faster than in other sectorsNatural outgrowth of the “it's someone else's fault” movement - everything is someone else's fault, not management's fault, with the primary culprit of lazy employees - we fired you and it's your fault, not oursThe anti-woke go woke and realize how much data they don't have, but need, to be anti-wokeAt least 1 large company announces it will no longer produce any employee metrics at all, not the count of employees, the names of executives (except where demanded by regulation), or any information that people work thereWith Oracle pioneering the co-Vice Chair and co-CEO roles on the board, and Target pioneering the underperforming executive chair, we see the first round of “Co-Executive Chairs” where the new ex-CEO stays on the board just under the old ex-CEOSeems absurd, but entirely possible:The first billion dollar option pay package for a non-executive director (7 year vest, zero at risk for performance)JPMorgan's new AI proxy voting robot starts an activist campaign seeking to vote out the Tesla boardA US board pays a “retention bonus” worth $20m in options due to the threat of Trump administration intervention and the CEO is close with the administrationExxon will add “shareholder demands” as a risk in their annual report

Find YouTube link to watch here:  https://youtu.be/uh99t38qgxw   Shownotes Welcome to the first Programmatic Digest episode of 2026 with Ellen Parker and Manuela Cortez. This is a quick check-in, plus a trader-friendly breakdown of the biggest 2025 shifts and what to watch in 2026. We cover five trends from 2025 (AI everywhere, privacy and cookieless reality, CTV growth, RMNs going more programmatic, and supply quality/transparency). Then we close with three 2026 predictions: curation becoming "default infrastructure," AI as a co-pilot (not autopilot), and multi-identity strategies becoming standard. This episode also includes the 2026 community focus: subscribe to YouTube + the newsletter, confirm your subscription, and reach out if you want to contribute (writing, audio, or guest spots).   Here's What You'll Learn What "AI everywhere" means for traders: less manual tuning, more strategy and interpretation Why privacy-first is still a day-to-day skill, even if cookies hang around longer than expected Why CTV is no longer "experimental" and how measurement expectations are changing Why more RMNs going programmatic changes how you think about signals and audiences What "supply quality + transparency" should actually include (fees, paths, reporting depth) 2026 prediction: curation becomes the baseline (SSP curation vs curation houses vs curation desks) 2026 prediction: AI moves from rules-based automation to agent-style workflows (co-pilot mindset) Why you still need foundations first (know how to do it manually before you let AI help) Subscribe to the Programmatic Digest Podcast on your favorite platform (including Spotify) https://www.heleneparker.com/programmatic-digest-podcast/  Subscribe to the Programmatic Digest YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@programmaticdigest  Join the newsletter and confirm your subscription: https://www.heleneparker.com/newsletter/ Access the Programmatic Training here: https://www.heleneparker.com/library/ No String Attached -

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!The spark was small—a tweet from Bishop Barron about synodality and doctrine—but the questions behind it are huge: What should a synod actually decide? How did “the spirit of Vatican II” turn into perpetual uncertainty? And why are everyday Catholics still getting side-eyed for kneeling at communion? We open the hood on a consistory that could reset expectations, sift Barron's argument for what it gets right and wrong, and get painfully practical about reverence, freedom, and pastoral authority.Along the way, we share a happier twist: a priest reached out and offered to accompany our Italy trip, making daily Latin Mass not only possible but likely across private chapels in Rome and beyond. That momentum matters. People don't want liturgical roulette; they want beauty, clarity, and worship that deepens faith. The pastoral playbook that treats piety as a problem is wearing thin, and that comes into sharp focus with a diocese banning portable kneelers for the elderly and Jonathan Roumie describing how he was told to stand when he tried to receive on his knees. Reverence isn't performance; it's love braving friction.We don't dodge the tough map either. Under Francis, a common foe united disparate trad corners. Under Leo, the tone is calmer, but the doctrinal direction still worries many. Could a non-territorial jurisdiction—an ordinariate-style solution with bishops from traditional communities—offer stability without schism? Maybe. Or maybe it risks a new ghetto unless leaders honor what's already law: the right to kneel, the right to receive on the tongue, and the call to worship God with proper solemnity. We're watching the consistory, reading the dubia, and building something constructive: a pilgrimage ordered to daily prayer and the Eucharist.If this conversation hits home, follow the show, share it with a friend who cares about liturgy and clarity, and leave a quick review.

Welcome to the first episode of 2026! There's a big shift happening in the online business space and, if you plan on staying relevant, you'll want to get on board with it. I've spent over 25 years in marketing and 15 years as a business owner myself, so I've seen plenty of trends come and go. But what's brewing for this year feels different - it's a cultural groundswell that's going to change the game completely, perhaps forever! And if you're blind to it, you'll get left behind. Think back to 2025 - the year AI exploded into daily use for a majority of people. We've now got more information at our fingertips than ever before, we're more connected than ever before, you can do in minutes things that used to take days, weeks, or months. Yet - have you noticed how much more lonely and disconnected working online can feel now? With the rise of AI, so much of what we're seeing and interacting with doesn't feel genuine. It lacks the energy we feel when we're interacting with, listening to or watching a real human. Our “fake radars” are permanently on, and as we know that AI is getting harder to detect, it's common to assume everything is created by AI! (Like you're possibly sitting there thinking these show notes were written by AI…. but they're not!) All this means we're craving authentic human connection more than ever and it's going to increase exponentially! In this episode, I share more about the shifts happening in our online space, why community and real connections is becoming the vital ingredient your business needs to thrive. Here's a taste of what you'll hear in this episode: Why is genuine connection more important than ever, especially as AI-generated content floods our feeds? What does “community” look like in the year ahead? How can you keep your business evolving without falling into the trap of sticking with what's comfortable - or getting left behind? What practical changes can you make to strip out what's no longer working, double down on what is, and start something that brings more connection into your world? Why do curated groups, masterminds, and meaningful conversations matter far more than collecting a list of contacts? And I announce a brand new (free!) community for She's The Business Podcast listeners to help you find your people, keep the conversation going, and get your questions answered! Ready to rethink what connection means for your business in 2026? Tune in to hear how you can take action and feel inspired for what's coming this year! ……… JOIN She's The Business Community on Facebook and let's continue the conversation! >> https://www.facebook.com/groups/shesthebusinesscommunity Don't miss the chance to be part of something truly supportive and real - because I think you'll love where we're heading. .................................................

Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.Let's be honest. Everyone has seen those YouTube videos that promise “buy these 10 stocks and you'll be rich” or “set it and forget it millionaire portfolio.” This video takes that idea and flips it on its head.Instead of sitting through a 40-minute sales pitch packed with stories and justifications, this breakdown gets straight to what actually matters if you want to make money in the market. Price. Trend. Fear and greed. That's it. No hype. No fantasy portfolios. Just a clear look at whether these so-called wide moat compounding stocks are actually worth touching right now.The video pulls a popular list of stocks straight from the comments and ranks them honestly, from Lambo to food stamps. Some names look decent. Some look stuck. Some are absolute traps if you're buying them for the wrong reasons. This isn't about whether a company is “great” or whether you like the story. It's about whether the stock is positioned to go up.One of the biggest takeaways is how much the market and sector matter. Roughly 40 percent of a stock's move comes from the overall market. About 30 percent comes from the sector. Only the last piece comes from the stock itself. That explains why amazing companies can still bleed money when the environment is wrong. If the wind isn't at your back, you're fighting uphill.You'll also see a deep dive into fear and greed, market breadth, buy and sell signals, and why overhead resistance keeps showing up in the same places again and again. These aren't random lines on a chart. They represent real people who are stuck, emotional, and ready to sell the moment they get back to breakeven.Here's what you'll walk away with after watching:✅ Why price is the only thing that actually pays you as an investor✅ How market, sector, and stock alignment creates easy trades✅ Why buying “cheap” stocks in downtrends usually ends badly✅ How fear turns into greed before big moves happen✅ What crashing up really looks like compared to crashing downThe video covers major names like ASML, Amazon, Visa, Mastercard, GE, Taiwan Semiconductor, Netflix, and more. One stock clearly stands out as the strongest setup. Others show exactly why patience matters and why forcing trades is expensive. Watching these side by side makes the difference between good setups and bad ones painfully obvious.Another big theme here is simplicity. You don't need to dig through financial statements, revenue models, or long-term stories to get paid. If price is rising and greed is increasing, that's where opportunity lives. If fear is rising and trends are breaking, that's when you step aside and protect capital.This is where OVTLYR fits in. The entire goal is to make these signals obvious so you can avoid major drawdowns and focus on stocks that actually want to move higher. Skipping a 20 percent loss can be just as powerful as catching a big winner.If you want trading to feel boring, repeatable, and stress-free, this video is worth your time. Watch how each stock is evaluated, compare the setups, and start thinking in probabilities instead of promises.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd.

Every year (since 2019!), I release a trends episode for the indoor playground and play café industry — and this year, there was simply too much to cover responsibly in a single episode.BLOG For this episode: https://www.michelecaruana.com/blog/2026-play-cafe-trendsAs I reviewed what I shared in my 2025 trends video (linked below) alongside what I've been seeing all year in Play Maker Society, my live events, and 1:1 coaching, the trends naturally fell into two buckets:1) planning and design decisions that are expensive to undo2) operational choices that determine whether a business actually runs sustainablyThat's why the 2026 trends are split into two parts.Part 1 focuses on planning: space design, revenue structure, and early decisions that quietly lock owners into years of unnecessary stress if they get them wrong.Many of the 2025 trends from last year's episode are still very relevant — including indoor/outdoor spaces, experience-led design, and bold, playful use of color — but the cost of missing these shifts is higher than ever.This year's list is less about what's "new" and more about what's becoming non-negotiable to have a competition and receccsion-proofed business (that YES: actually pays you).What's IN for 2026 (Planning & Design):Treating cafés as a core profit driver, not a side featureDesigning spaces that increase length of stay and per-visit spendInclusion and universal design as the standard, not a bonusIntentional layouts that reduce friction for families and staffRevenue models that prioritize retained profit, not just top-line salesDesigning businesses that work with family behavior, not against itWhat's OUT for 2026 (Planning & Design):Over-relying on AI to plan your business without real-world validationRelying on hustle to fix structural problemsDepending heavily on third-party vendors for food and party add-onsSkipping cafés without a clear replacement revenue strategyTreating inclusion as a marketing angle instead of a design foundationAssuming volume will make up for thin marginsBuilding spaces that look good online but don't function well in real lifeThis episode sets the foundation for Part 2, where we'll shift from planning to execution — covering operational trends, optimization, and how owners are building businesses that run without burning them out.RESOURCES:Play Cafe Academy & Play Makers SocietyGetting Started With Your Play Cafe [YouTube Video Playlist]What's Working In The Indoor Play Industry 2025 GuideFund Your Indoor Play Business [Free Training]Indoor Play Courses & 1:1 Consulting WaitlistMichele's InstagramMichele's WebsitePlay Cafe Academy YouTube ChannelETSY Template ShopPrepare Your Indoor Playground For a RecessionPlay Cafe Academy & Play Makers SocietyQuestions and Support: Support@michelecaruana.com TOOLS & OTHER LINKS:Play Cafe Academy & Play Makers Society: http://bit.ly/3HES7fDQuestions and Support: Support@michelecaruana.com Simplify and Scale with 50% OFF WellnessLivingActive Campaign Free TrialFree Demo of Aluvii All-In-One POS

Wir beginnen unsere Diskussion über aktuelle Ereignisse mit einem beunruhigenden Trend – dem dramatischen Rückgang der Frauenrechte in Israel. Anschließend sprechen wir über eine neue Welle von KI-Chatbots, die Jesus simulieren und spirituelle Beratung und Begleitung online anbieten. In unserem Wissenschaftsthema diskutieren wir heute über ein Problem, das Menschen in diesen Wochen besonders beschäftigt – Entschlackungsdiäten nach den üppigen Mahlzeiten über die Feiertage. Experten plädieren für eine nachhaltigere Ernährung während und nach dieser Zeit. Und zum Schluss sprechen wir über die Reaktionen von Präsident Trump auf die Anrufe von Kindern, die ihm ihre Weihnachtswünsche mitteilten. Der Rest des Programms ist der deutschen Sprache und Kultur gewidmet. Die heutige Grammatiklektion konzentriert sich auf Verbs Meaning „To Learn". Die Rockband Karat ist eines der Urgesteine der deutschen Musikszene. Vor 50 Jahren in der DDR gegründet fand sie dort schnell Anklang und durfte aufgrund ihrer unkritischen Texte auch im Westen spielen. So gelang der Band nach der Wende der nahtlose Übergang in die gesamtdeutsche Pop-Szene. Ich glaube, dass Ihnen unsere Geschichte über eine Kuh namens Mücke gefallen wird.

Happy New Year half listeners! If you lived up to our standards and barely listened to us all year - even if you tuned in - this one is the perfect round up of everything we thought about this year. After 13 minutes of talking about coffee/breakfast (and then a good few more recapping our mostly banal Christmas celebrations), we get into our annual discussion of our own choices from Throwing Fits' Fitties Awards, covering:Brand/collab/jawnz of the year, with everything ranging from Nick's triple threat 3sixteen collab jeans, to Our Legacy, Aaron Levine, Madewell, Zara, and Blundstone. Trend of the year, not any of their options, but maybe AI slop takes the cake, and it will always be true that trends are no more.Best timeline takeover, could be the overwhelming news stories of the year, from Charlie Kirk to Epstein, or it could be the thing from the timeline that jumped into real life (six-sevennnn).Best movie, where Alex recaps movies and Nick goes 'hmm, yeah, I see'.Best TV, which for quality has to be The Pitt, but Love Island USA, Severance, the Sean Combs Reckoning, among others competed for the public consciousness. Biggest Bozo, either the guys responsible for the trickle down of shit 2025 had to offer (Trump/Netanyahu), or those who took the biggest L's, Andrew Cuomo and Sydney Sweeney. Goat of the year, a bit of the inverse, gotta be Friedland or Mamdani, but definitely not Taylor Greene.Musical artist of the year, where Nick recaps his Tidal Rewind and Alex goes 'hmm, yeah, I see'.And then we exchange gifts because it (was) Christmas.

Wir beginnen unsere Diskussion über aktuelle Ereignisse mit einem beunruhigenden Trend – dem dramatischen Rückgang der Frauenrechte in Israel. Anschließend sprechen wir über eine neue Welle von KI-Chatbots, die Jesus simulieren und spirituelle Beratung und Begleitung online anbieten. In unserem Wissenschaftsthema diskutieren wir heute über ein Problem, das Menschen in diesen Wochen besonders beschäftigt – Entschlackungsdiäten nach den üppigen Mahlzeiten über die Feiertage. Experten plädieren für eine nachhaltigere Ernährung während und nach dieser Zeit. Und zum Schluss sprechen wir über die Reaktionen von Präsident Trump auf die Anrufe von Kindern, die ihm ihre Weihnachtswünsche mitteilten. Der Rest des Programms ist der deutschen Sprache und Kultur gewidmet. Die heutige Grammatiklektion konzentriert sich auf Verbs Meaning „To Learn". Die Rockband Karat ist eines der Urgesteine der deutschen Musikszene. Vor 50 Jahren in der DDR gegründet fand sie dort schnell Anklang und durfte aufgrund ihrer unkritischen Texte auch im Westen spielen. So gelang der Band nach der Wende der nahtlose Übergang in die gesamtdeutsche Pop-Szene. Ich glaube, dass Ihnen unsere Geschichte über eine Kuh namens Mücke gefallen wird. Auf dem Weg zum Schlachthof büxte sie aus, bewies Mut und Entschlossenheit und nahm ihr Schicksal in die eigene Hand. Dabei hatte sie mehr Glück als Verstand. Und das ist auch unsere Redewendung für diese Woche. Abbau von Frauenrechten in Israel: ein Spiegelbild globaler Trends?

What does your agency need to be known for in order to stay relevant as the market keeps shifting?In this episode of the Small But Mighty Agency podcast, we explore the strategic shifts quietly shaping how agencies build momentum right now—and what it actually takes to future-proof your agency without chasing every new trend.This isn't about services, channels, or keeping up appearances. It's about clarity—specifically, clarity around the outcomes your work creates, and how that clarity changes everything from sales conversations to capability-building.Together, we explore:Why future-proof agencies anchor their growth to outcomes, not services or channelsHow outcome clarity reshapes offers, pricing, and sales conversations without adding complexityWhat capability-building actually looks like when it's tied to a clear outcome (and why this matters in an AI-heavy world)Why community isn't just support but a strategic advantage for staying grounded and informedThe difference between “sounding clear” and being clear in a noisy marketThis episode sets the stage for the next conversation, where we'll go deeper into outcome niching: what it really means, how to do it without boxing yourself in, and what makes it work for you not against you.

New year, new trends? It's New Years Eve and Lucinda and Chelsea are crystal ball-gazing into 2026 to predict the biggest fashion moments about to take over your wardrobe. We’re breaking down the return of "ugly" fashion (hello, mismatched prints and dad sneakers), why Gen Z is officially cancelling matching activewear sets, and the unexpected "funnel neck" silhouette that’s about to replace your blazer. Chelsea makes the case for the controversial return of fringe (yes, really) and Lucinda explains why "accessory addiction" is the new quiet luxury. Plus, we're getting into which trends have graduated from "emerging" to "commercial" – meaning they are actually worth your hard-earned cash.

Moritz Siebert speaks with Doug King about what it really means to trade commodities through cycles, distortions, and stress. Drawing on decades at Cargill and more than twenty years running a commodities hedge fund, Doug explains why innovation keeps scarcity narratives in check, why commodities resist buy and hold logic, and how real edge comes from cash markets rather than futures screens. He reflects on defining trades in oil, nickel, and agriculture, the limits of volatility targeting, and the discipline required to survive violent squeezes. The result is a grounded account of conviction, risk control, and why commodities reward patience more than prediction.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Moritz on Twitter.Follow Doug on LinkedIn.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 - Opening remarks and introduction to Top Traders Unplugged01:24 - Introducing Doug King and his background04:49 - From Cargill to hedge funds and the pull of commodities07:05 - Why the fund is purely discretionary and fundamentals driven09:50 - Team size, selectivity, and waiting for the right trades10:45 - Why commodities are cyclical and innovation breaks scarcity13:46 - Electrification and where long term excitement may lie15:37 - Defining edge in commodities trading18:12 - Physical delivery, convergence, and real market signals20:23

In this episode of The Good Life EDU Podcast, Andrew Easton is joined by Kris Hagel, Chief Information Officer of Peninsula School District. Peninsula has been thoughtfully implementing artificial intelligence in K–12 education since early 2023. Now in their fourth year of AI work, Peninsula offers an honest look at what it takes to move beyond one-off trainings and instead build a sustainable, values-driven approach to AI adoption. Chris shares how early collaboration between instructional leaders and technology teams shaped the district's direction, why universal design for learning (UDL) remained non-negotiable, and how teachers—especially in English and social studies—have reimagined assessment by focusing on student process rather than just final products. The conversation also explores practical system-level considerations, including data privacy, vetted tools, local AI models, and the realities districts face when balancing innovation with responsibility. As the episode closes, Andrew and Chris wrestle with one of the most pressing and unresolved questions in education today: students' growing use of AI for companionship, mental health support, and social connection. Whether your district is just beginning its AI journey or refining systems already in place, this episode offers grounded insight, cautionary wisdom, and a reminder that meaningful change takes time, trust, and intentional leadership.

Niels and Cem reflect on a year marked by concentration, confidence, and growing structural fragility beneath calm markets. They examine extreme positioning, record low cash levels, and the quiet dominance of reflexive flows over fundamentals. Cem challenges common readings of volatility, explains where real fear hides in options markets, and outlines why tail exposure becomes critical late in cycles. The discussion broadens into portfolio construction, questioning the legacy of 60/40 investing and the illusion of diversification built during falling-rate decades. Grounded in history, market structure, and political cycles, this conversation offers a disciplined framework for navigating regimes where leverage, policy, and inequality quietly redefine risk.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Cem on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 00:00 - Introduction to the Systematic Investor Series00:49 - Geopolitical tensions beneath the surface of markets02:07 - Extreme bullish sentiment and record low cash levels04:12 - Margin use, positioning, and why this setup is fragile06:07 - Why the VIX fails as a true fear indicator11:48 - Buffett's concentration and risk management through quality16:27 - Leverage, Sharpe ratios, and misunderstood diversification21:02 - Trend following performance and late year positioning23:48 - Positioning, reflexivity, and market microstructure28:25 - Volatility traps and convexity before stress events31:06...
