On this episode of Excess Returns, Matt Zeigler and Bogumil Baranowski speak with Rainwater Equity ETF portfolio manager Joseph Shaposhnik about how long-term investors should think about markets in an era defined by geopolitical shocks, AI disruption, and unprecedented capital investment cycles. The conversation explores how disciplined investors can stay focused on durable businesses and long-term free cash flow rather than reacting to short-term headlines. Joseph explains how his team evaluates companies during major events, why the AI boom may create both massive disruption and opportunity, and where he believes the most attractive investment opportunities exist today.Topics covered in this episode• Why most macro headlines and geopolitical events rarely have lasting impacts on great businesses• How long-term investors should analyze conflicts and market shocks without overreacting• The defense spending supercycle and why aerospace and defense may benefit from rising geopolitical tensions• How Joseph evaluates the AI investment cycle across semiconductors, software, and hyperscalers• Why semiconductor companies may offer a lower-risk way to benefit from AI growth• The risks created by massive AI infrastructure CapEx and concentration around specific AI models• Why some software companies may face significant disruption from AI tools and LLMs• How AI could reshape business models that rely on packaging public or commoditized data• The potential rotation from the Magnificent Seven to the other 493 companies in the S&P 500• Why capital intensity may change the long-term attractiveness of some technology companies• The role of management quality and capital allocation in navigating technological disruption• Fragile vs anti-fragile business models in an AI-driven economy• Where AI may create unexpected winners across industrial and traditional industries• Why long-term investors should still prioritize durable cash flow compounding businessesTimestamps00:00 Introduction and why most headlines have limited long-term impact on businesses02:00 How experienced investors think about geopolitical shocks and market headlines04:00 Defense spending tailwinds and the aerospace and defense supercycle06:45 How investors should react when major market news breaks11:10 How Joseph evaluates the AI boom and which companies benefit most14:15 The case for opportunities outside the Magnificent Seven17:15 How rising AI CapEx is changing the economics of major tech companies21:25 Why hyperscalers face increasing concentration risk23:00 Why semiconductor suppliers may be the best positioned AI investments27:15 Why Joseph reduced exposure to software companies33:00 The importance of learning organizations and adaptive management teams37:00 AI, labor markets, and whether high-income jobs face disruption41:00 Fragile vs anti-fragile companies in the age of AI46:00 Where AI could create unexpected business winners52:00 How great management teams adapt during technological disruption57:00 How AI may accelerate entrepreneurship and innovation59:00 Why investors should remain focused on sustainable cash flow01:02:00 What the next generation of long-term compounders may look like

The greatest wealth transfer in history is happening right now. In this episode of Investor Impact: Power Talks with Vinney Chopra, Vinod Chopra shares a powerful perspective that every investor should understand. According to Vinney, nearly $73 trillion in wealth is expected to transfer from the Baby Boomer generation over the next few decades. That's an enormous shift in assets — including real estate, businesses, and investment portfolios. Vinney, who has spent over 40 years building businesses and raising capital, explains that investors who understand this shift will be positioned to discover incredible opportunities. But those opportunities won't appear magically. They must be identified, analyzed, and acted upon by investors who know where to look. In this discussion you'll learn: • Why the upcoming wealth transfer could reshape investment markets • How generational property ownership creates hidden opportunities • Why proactive investors will uncover the "gold nuggets" first Vinney encourages his InnerCircle investors to stay alert, build relationships, and keep learning — because the next generation of deals is already forming.

The Epstein files are a spotlight into the twisted life of the world's most notorious sex trafficker and the billionaires and oligarchs that took advantage of young women and children. Even the redacted trove of more than 3 million documents by the Department of Justice proves that his ring of abuse went much farther than just to satisfy his sadism, but that the things that went on in his island were vitally connected to a pool of a dark money empire that exists in parallel to the ordinary economy. But what happens when we look beyond the official government releases and cross reference information in the Epstein files with another investigative journalism goldmine: a 2017 trove of leaked banking documents called “The Paradise Papers”. Read together, these two archives of material tell an even darker story about the real importance of Jeffrey Epstein. Which is why I've brought Craig Unger onto the show today. He's an investigative journalist, former editor of the Boston Magazine and a multi-new york times best selling author who, like the rest of the independent journalists trying to survive the media apocalypse, now writes on Substack. A few weeks ago he broke the Paradise Papers - Epstein connection in a piece titled “Jeffrey Epstein's Really Big Short.” Craig Unger's Substack: https://craigunger.substack.comEpstein's Really Big Short: https://craigunger.substack.com/p/jeffrey-epsteins-really-big-shortGet Early Access on Substackhttps://sgcarney.substack.com/

AI could unlock India's digital economy and help make Indian companies smarter and more profitable. In this episode of The Core Report Special Edition, Financial Journalist Govindraj Ethiraj speaks with Akhilesh Tuteja, Partner & National Leader, Clients and Markets, KPMG India about AI in India, language AI, and how it could reshape India's digital economy and business growth.Artificial intelligence is transforming industries worldwide, but India may have a unique advantage. With a large population, diverse languages, and a growing startup ecosystem, it could unlock massive economic opportunity. Language AI could unlock India's digital economy by bringing millions of non English speakers into the digital ecosystem. Much of the internet today is still dominated by English content, leaving many Indians disconnected from the full benefits of the digital world. With AI powered translation, voice interfaces, and mobile first technologies, language AI could dramatically expand access and accelerate the growth of India's digital economy.The discussion explores how AI could make Indian companies smarter and more profitable by improving productivity, enabling faster decision making, and helping enterprises innovate at scale. From AI powered customer insights and hyper personalisation to automation, document processing, and enterprise intelligence, artificial intelligence is already changing how Indian businesses operate.The conversation also explores the future of India's IT services industry, the role of startups and innovation ecosystems, and why AI may initially disrupt markets before creating even greater value.

$21 Trillion unaccounted for since 1998. That's enough money to give every man, woman and child in America a one-time bonus of $60,000. That's a lot money. But when you analyze it further, it's used for the destruction of America and its citizens, it makes the comment especially offensive!

Tom Bilyeu unpacks the complex layers driving this crisis, cutting through misinformation, propaganda, and the fog of AI-driven narratives. With careful analysis, he breaks down the five key motivations behind America's actions: protecting massive Gulf economic investments, the ever-escalating threat of Iranian nuclear capabilities, Israel's shifting regional strategies, the fragile state of Iran's regime, and the high-stakes domestic political calculus facing President Trump.

Newt talks with Scott Hodge, a tax and fiscal policy fellow at Arnold Ventures. They discuss the U.S. federal deficit and potential revenue sources. Hodge highlights the alarming trajectory of U.S. government spending, which exceeds tax revenues, leading to increasing debt and interest payments that could soon surpass combined defense and domestic program budgets. He proposes expanding the corporate tax base to include large nonprofit organizations that generate significant untaxed income, such as hospitals, credit unions, and universities, which collectively earn $2.8 trillion. This measure could generate approximately $51 billion annually without harming the economy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the second of our two-part panel discussion from Morgan Stanley's TMT conference, our analysts break down the complexity of financing AI's infrastructure and the technological disruption happening across industries.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Michelle Weaver: Welcome back to Thoughts on the Market, and welcome to part two of our conversation live from the Technology, Media and Telecom conference. I'm Michelle Weaver, U.S. Thematic and Equity Strategist at Morgan Stanley. Today we're continuing our conversation with Stephen Byrd, Josh Baer and Lindsay Tyler. This time looking at financing AI and some of the risks to the story. It's Friday, March 6th at 11am in San Francisco. So yesterday we spoke about AI adoption. And while there's a lot of excitement on this theme, there've also been some concerns bubbling up. Lindsay, I want to start with you around financing. That's another critical component of the AI build out. What's your latest on the magnitude of the data center financing gap, and what role [are] credit markets playing here? Lindsay Tyler: Yeah, in partnership with Thematic Research, Stephen and team, and colleagues across fixed income research last summer, we did put out a note, thinking about the data center financing gap, right? So, Stephen and team modeled a $3 trillion global data center CapEx need over a four-year timeframe. So, in partnership with fixed income across asset classes, we thought: okay, how will that really be funded? And we came to the conclusion that the hyperscalers, the high quality hyperscalers, generate a good amount of cash flow, right? So, there's cash from ops that can fund approximately half of that. But then we think that fixed income markets are critical to fund the rest of the funding gap. And really private credit is the leader in that and then aided by corporate credit and also securitized credit. What we've seen since is that yes, private credit has served a role. There is this difference between private credit 1.0, which is more of that middle market direct lending. And then private credit 2.0, which is more ABF – Asset Based Finance or Asset Backed Finance. And what we see there is an interest in leases of hyperscaler tenants, right? We've also seen in the market over the past nine months or so, investment grade bond issuance by hyperscalers. Obviously, a use of cash flow by hyperscalers. We've seen the construction loans with banks and also private credit per reports. We've also seen high yield bond issuance, which is kind of a new trend for construction financing. We've seen ABS and CMBS as well. And then something new that's emerging in focus for investors is more of a chip-backed or compute contract backed financings, like more creative solutions. We're really in early innings of the spend right now. And so, there is this shift. As we start to work through the construction early phases, the next focus is: okay, but what about the chips? And so, I think a big focus is that, you know, chips are more than 50 percent of the spend for if you're looking at a gigawatt site. And it depends what type of chips and kind of what generation. But that's the next leg of this too. So, it's kind of a focus, you know, for 2026. Michelle Weaver: And how do you view balance sheet leverage and financing when you think about hyperscaler debt raising magnitude and timelines? Lindsay Tyler: So just to bring it down to more of a basic level, if you need compute, you really might need two things, right? A powered shell and then the chips. And so, if you're looking for that compute, you could kind of go in three basic ways. You could look to build the shell and kind of build and buy the whole thing. You could lease the shell, from, you know, a developer, maybe a Bitcoin miner too – that is converted to HBC. And then you kind of buy the chips and you put them in yourselves. Or you could lease all the compute; quote unquote lease, it's more of a contract. In terms of the funding, if you're thinking about the cash flows of some of the big companies – think of that as primarily being put towards chip spend. If you're thinking about the construction that's kind of split between cash CapEx but also leases. And so, what we've seen is that there is more than [$]600 billion of un-commenced lease obligations that will commence over the next two to five years, across the big four or five players. And then my equity counterparts estimate around [$]700 billion of cash CapEx that needs this year for some of those players as well. So, these are big numbers. But that's kind of how, at a basic level, they're approaching some of the financing. It's a split approach. Michelle Weaver: And what have you learned around financing the past few days at the conference? Anything incremental to share there? Lindsay Tyler: Sure. Yeah. I think I found confirmation of some key themes here at the conference. The first being that numerous funding buckets are available. That was a big focus of our note last year is that you can kind of look at asset level financing. You can look at public bonds, you can look at some equity. There are these different funding buckets available.The second is that tenant quality matters for construction financing. I think I've seen this more in the markets than maybe at this conference over the past two to three weeks. But that has been a focus of pricing for the deals, but also market depth for the deals. A third confirmation of a key theme was around the neo clouds and also the GPU as a service business models. Thinking about those creative financings, right. Are they thinking about from their compute counterparties? Would they like upfront payments? Might they look to move financing off [the] balance sheet, if they have a very high-quality investment grade rated counterparty? So, there is some of this evolution around those solutions. And then a fourth key theme is just around the credit support. And Stephen has and I have talked about this around some of the Bitcoin miners – is that, you know, there can be these higher quality investment grade players that might look to lend their credit support. Maybe a lease backstop to other players in the ecosystem in order to get a better pricing on construction financing. And we are seeing some press pickup around how that might play out in chip financing down the road too. Michelle Weaver: Mm-hmm. AI driven risk and potential disruption has been a big feature of the price action we've seen year-to-date in this theme. Stephen, what are some asset classes or businesses you see as resistant to some of this disruption? Stephen Byrd: We spend a lot of time thinking about, sort of, asset classes that are resistant to deflation and disruption. And what's interesting is there's actually a handful of economists in the world that are doing remarkable work on this concept. That they would call it the economics of transformative AI. There are three Americans, two Canadians, two Brits, a number of others who are doing really, really interesting work. And essentially what they're looking at is what do economies look like? As we see very powerful AI enter many industries – cause price reductions, deflation… What does that do? They have a lot of interesting takeaways, but one is this idea that the relative value of assets that cannot be deflated by AI goes up. Very simple idea. But think of it this way, I mean, there's only, you know, one principle resort on Kauai. You know, there's a limited amount of metals. And so, what we go through is this list that's gotten a lot of investor attention of resistant asset classes or more of the resistant asset classes that can go up in value. So, there are obvious ones like land, though you have to be a little careful with real estate in the sense that like, office real estate probably wouldn't be where you would go. Nor would you potentially go sort of towards middle income, lower income housing. But more, you know, think of industrial REITs, higher-end real estate. But there are a lot of other categories that are interesting to me. All kinds of infrastructure should be quite resistant, all kinds of critical materials. Metals should do extremely well in this. But then when you go beyond that, it's actually kind of interesting that there; arguably there's a longer list than those classic sort of land and metals examples.Examples here would be compute… Michelle Weaver: Mm-hmm. Stephen Byrd: I thought Jensen put it, well, you know, if there's a limited amount of infrastructure available, you want to put the best compute. And ultimately, in some ways, intelligence becomes the new coin of the realm in the world, right? So, I would want to own the purveyors of intelligence. It could include high-end luxury. It could include unique human experiences. So, I don't know how many of y'all have children who are sort of college age. But my children are college age, and they absolutely hate what they would call AI slop.They want legit human content, and they seek it out. And they absolutely hate it when they see bad copies of human content. And so, I think there is a place in many parts of the economy for unique human experiences, unique human content, and it's interesting to kind of seek out where that might be in the economy. So those would be some examples of resistant assets. Michelle Weaver: Mm-hmm. Josh, software's been at really the center of this AI disruption debate. How would you compare the current pullback in software multiples to prior periods of peak uncertainty? And do you think any of these concerns are valid? Or how are you thinking about that? Josh Baer: Great question. I mean, software multiples on an EV to sales basis are down 30 – 35 percent just from the fall, I will say. And that's overall in the group. A lot of stocks, multiple handfuls, are down 60-70 percent over the last year. And what's being priced in is really peak uncertainty, a lot of fear. And these multiples, now four times sales – takes us all the way back about 10 years to the shift to cloud. And this time in many ways reminds us of that period of peak fear. In this case, what's being priced in is terminal value risk. We talked about this TAM yesterday. But you know, who is going to win that share? How is it divided from a competitive perspective across these model providers? The LLMs with new entrants. Of course, the incumbents. And this other idea of in-housing. Michelle Weaver: Mm-hmm. Josh Baer: So, there's competitive risk, there's business model risk. Are companies going to need to change their pricing models from seat-based to consumption or hybrid. And then last margin risk. Just thinking about the higher input costs and higher capital intensity. And so, you know, all of those fears are being priced in right now. Michelle Weaver: And we, of course though, had a bunch of these companies live with us at the conference. How are they responding to some of these risks? How are they addressing these investor concerns? Josh Baer: Most of the companies here from our coverage are the incumbent software vendors. And I think that the leadership teams did a really nice job coming out and defending their competitive moats and really articulating the story of why they are in a great position to capitalize on the opportunity. And the reasons can vary across different companies. But some of the commonalities are around enterprise grade, trust, security, governance, acceptance from IT organizations.The idea of vibe coding all apps in an organization get squashed when you actually talk to companies and chief information officers. For some companies there's proprietary data moats, network effects. All of that's on top of existing customer relationships. And so, you know, that was the message from the companies that we had. That we're the incumbents. We get to use all of the same innovative AI technology in the same way that all these different competitive buckets do. But we have, you know, that differentiation in that moat. And so, we're in a good place. Michelle Weaver: I want to wrap on a positive note. Stephen, what did you hear at the conference that you're most excited about? Stephen Byrd: I'd say the life sciences. A few investors pointed out that perhaps AI has a PR problem these days. And I do think showing a significant benefit to humanity in terms of improved health outcomes, whether that's just better diagnosis, you know. Away from this event, but I was in India the week before and, you know, AI can have a powerful benefit to the people who suffer the most in terms of providing very powerful medical tools in a distributed manner. So, I'm a big fan there.But you know, in many ways, curing the most challenging diseases plaguing humanity. The kind of problems involved in providing those and developing those cures are perfect for AI. So that, for me – stepping way back – that is by far the most exciting thing. Michelle Weaver: Josh, same to you. What are you most excited about? Josh Baer: From my perspective, it's potentially the turning point for software. The ability to showcase that we are at this inflection point and acceleration. To actually see that it takes time for our software companies to develop new AI technologies. Put that into products that have been tested and proven and go through the enterprise adoption cycle. And that we're at the cusp of more adoption – that's what our survey work says. And to see that inflection, I think can help to rerate this sector. Michelle Weaver: Lindsay, same question for you… Lindsay Tyler: Maybe I'll tie it to markets. I've already had a lot of more conversations with equity investors over the past, how many months? There's a big fixed income focus right now, which is a great, you know, spot and really interesting opportunity in my seat. And there's a lot of interesting structures coming to be right now in the credit space. So, I think it's an exciting time. Michelle Weaver: Lindsay, Stephen, Josh, thank you very much for joining to recap the event and let us know what you learned at the conference. To our audience, thank you for listening here live.

China is expecting its GDP to grow by over six trillion yuan this year, which officials say will provide solid support for stabilizing employment, benefiting the people and preventing risks.

Yesterday, Reuters reported, Indian refiners have rushed to secure prompt cargoes of Russian crude as the war involving Iran disrupts supplies from the Middle East. The crisis has choked traffic through the Strait of Hormuz — a route that normally carries around 40% of India's oil imports — forcing companies to scramble for alternatives. The shift is striking. New Delhi had spent months cutting back Russian imports under U.S. pressure. But with India holding only about 25 days of crude reserves, the war has quickly exposed how thin that buffer really is. So how did India's energy strategy end up here, between Russian oil, U.S. pressure, and a war in Iran? Host Snigdha Sharma explains.Tune in.

A Supreme Court ruling gives companies the green light to claim refunds for Trump-era tariffs — and the potential bill could reach $1–2 trillion. We break down how this affects businesses, law firms, and the U.S. economy, and why Trump's strategic use of tariffs still works as a non-violent tool. Episode Summary In this episode, we dive into the Supreme Court's recent decision on Trump's tariffs and what it means for American businesses and the federal government: 1. Tariff Refunds & Damages Companies can recover the actual tariffs paid — an estimated $300–360 billion. Damages and interest are also claimable for businesses that suffered losses due to the tariffs. Some lawsuits could balloon the total bill to $1–2 trillion. 2. Law Firms & Lawsuit Rights Law firms are already buying rights to these claims, betting they can secure double the refund through damages and interest. These class actions could stretch on for years, delaying resolution but creating high stakes for both companies and the government. 3. The Strategic Use of Tariffs Trump's targeted, short-term tariff strategy — like his recent moves with Spain — demonstrates how trade can be wielded as a non-violent pressure tool. While long-term tariffs layered on top of income taxes can be problematic, precise, lightning-fast tariffs can achieve compliance without crippling the economy. History note: The founders envisioned tariffs as a revenue tool before federal income taxes existed. 4. Power & Perception The U.S. economy has enormous leverage over other nations through trade — leverage many Americans don't realize. Trump's approach highlights the untapped power of economic policy as a non-violent weapon. This episode explores the enormous financial and geopolitical implications of overturning Trump-era tariffs — from multi-trillion-dollar payouts to strategic trade leverage in global politics. Key Topics Supreme Court ruling on Trump tariffs Potential $1–2 trillion in refunds and damages Law firms buying claims and class action dynamics Tariffs as a targeted, non-violent tool Historical context: tariffs vs. federal income tax U.S. trade leverage and global economic power

Is the market actually crashing, or are we seeing a generational entry point? Hosts Matty A. and Ryan Breedwell break down the geopolitical shockwaves from the Middle East, the "Trump Conflict Playbook," and why smart money is buying the dip while everyone else panics.Key TakeawaysInstitutional Resilience: Despite headlines of a $1 trillion loss, major indices remained within normal volatility ranges. Institutional "smart money" bought back a majority of the midday pullback.Defense Sector Gains: Historically, wartime events involving US munitions and aerospace are positive for the domestic economy. Leading names like Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman are positioned for massive government contracts.Real Estate Distress: Commercial loans flagged for foreclosure in Texas topped $800 million for the fourth consecutive month. Roughly 70% of these properties are apartment complexes, signaling a major oversupply in previously "frothy" markets.Rate Cut Timeline: Goldman Sachs maintains that a June rate cut is the base case scenario.

While the physical fires are kept burning with a metric ton of heating pellets here in the freezing Latvian buffer zone, the geopolitical cesspool has officially overflowed. In this massive, fast-paced dispatch, we tear apart the outbreak of the largest Middle Eastern war since 2003—Operation Epic Fury.As American stealth bombers dance through the Iranian skies, the myth of the "Multipolar World" burns to the ground. Russia and China have completely abandoned Tehran, triggering an absolute panic among the Z-Patriots. We break down the delusion of the exiled Russian opposition, deliver the brutal pragmatic truth from the Baltics, and explain how Iran's asymmetric terror strategy is dragging the global economy into the abyss.Meanwhile, the Russian economy is actively cannibalizing itself. We look at the 30 trillion ruble crater in the budget, the Orwellian trap being laid to freeze civilian bank deposits, and the hardline military faction explicitly citing the UN to justify a "holy mutiny" against Vladimir Putin. Finally, we end on a darkly comedic note: watching Solovyov's top propagandist accidentally admit to the Holodomor on live state television, only to get accused of being a Banderite.The cardboard armor of the authoritarian world is violently catching fire.Support the show and keep the Gonzo journalism alive:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheEasternBorderMerch Store: https://theeasternborder-shop.fourthwall.com/Help the frontline units in Ukraine who are fighting in the mud:Donate a truck: https://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-the-eastern-borderHappiness is mandatory.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

Many parents and leaders are wondering if a college degree is still worth the high educational costs. With student debt reaching nearly $2 trillion and the AI impact changing the future of work, the traditional path to success is facing a major disruption. In this episode, Eric Gertler, Executive Chairman and CEO of US News and World Report, joins us to talk about the "broken compact" in higher education and how college rankings are changing as consumer trust falls. We explore how university leadership must move away from focusing on real estate growth and instead prioritize critical thinking, internships, and lifelong learning. We also cover the growing demand for high-paying trades like electrical work over four-year degrees and a story from Eric's time in government where a hospital leader identified the need for data analysts years before it became a trend. This episode helps CHROs build better talent strategies by showing how to find and train workers based on their actual skill development in a job market where actual skills matter more than a diploma.
