In this episode, portfolio manager Steven Visscher covers how Mawer's balanced portfolios navigated 2025 and how they are positioned in 2026. With a war-driven energy shock on one side and an AI investment boom on the other, the market is pulling in two directions at once. Steven walks through what that means for asset mix, where the team is seeing signs of investor complacency, and why cracks in private credit could soon create a meaningful opportunity. Key Takeaways: Two forces are competing for market direction in 2026: a war-driven energy shock from the conflict in Iran pushing inflation and rates higher, and a broadening AI investment boom driving strong earnings momentum across the global economy. AI capital investment has expanded well beyond the hyperscalers to include memory, storage, cooling, data centres, and electrical grid infrastructure, with more than 80% of S&P 500 Q1 reporters beating earnings expectations. Current positioning remains close to neutral at 60% equity, with a continued underweight to U.S. equities in favour of international and emerging markets. Valuations, interest rates, and investor psychology all support staying close to that neutral stance. Cracks in private credit are emerging through rising defaults and client redemption gating. The team is building global credit exposure gradually and is prepared to deploy capital more aggressively when a dislocation occurs. In an environment of competing forces and mixed signals, staying diversified, maintaining valuation discipline, and building portfolios that can withstand multiple scenarios remains the priority.

Five and a half years after his last solo studio album, we finally have a BRAND NEW Paul McCartney record! To mark this historic occasion—and celebrate the 300th episode of 2Legs—Andy and Tom are proud to present our in-depth review of Paul's latest release, THE BOYS OF DUNGEON LANE released on 29th May 2026. Rather than rush out a "first listen" reaction, we wanted to spend a few days living with the album, absorbing the songs, studying the lyrics, and getting to know the record before sharing our thoughts. We felt an album this significant deserved that time and attention. The verdict? We absolutely love it. For us, "THE BOYS OF DUNGEON LANE stands comfortably alongside some of Paul's finest post-Beatles work, including TUG OF WAR, FLAMING PIE and BAND ON THE RUN. It's a rich, rewarding listen that continues to reveal new layers with every spin. We know many of our loyal subscribers have been patiently waiting for our review, and we wanted to make sure we got it right. We hope you enjoy our discussion, presented with accompanying images and audio throughout. Now it's your turn: What do you think of The Boys of Dungeon Lane? Masterpiece? Instant classic? Or simply another entry in Paul's incredible catalogue? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below—we can't wait to hear them. It's 2026, and Paul McCartney has just released a brand-new album. What an extraordinary gift for fans after all these years. We hope this album brings you as much joy, excitement, and inspiration as it has brought us.

Today from SDPB News — how South Dakota's Republican legislative primary races reflect a broader battle within the GOP, plus how drought conditions are impacting both wildfire conditions in the Black Hills and farmers and ranchers on the plains.
US-Iranian negotiations to end the Iran war have evolved into a performative tug-of-war over who has the longer breath rather than an all-out effort to resolve differences, given that neither US President Donald Trump nor Iran wants a full resumption of hostilities. Mr. Trump admitted as much during this week's public Cabinet meeting that resembled a sycophantic choir praising the conductor. The meeting enabled Mr. Trump to showcase his perceived achievements and shore up support for his desperate search for an off-ramp that would allow him to declare victory in the war credibly and would justify his 2018 abrogation of the 2015 international agreement that curbed Iran's nuclear programme. The abrogation put the United States on a slippery slope, facilitated by President Joe Biden during his interregnum between the two Trump administrations, that ended up in the February 28 US-Israeli assault on Iran.
If you've ever been working and thought “I should be with my kids,” then been with your kids and thought “I should be working,” you're not alone. This episode came straight out of a coaching call with a private-practice SLP and homeschool mom who was living that exact tug-of-war at the pool on a workday—guilty the whole time. And here's the shift: this isn't really a time management problem. It's identity, self-worth, values, and the way your brain turns every choice into a loaded decision.What You'll LearnWhy “the perfect calendar” doesn't solve guilt if the mind drama is still running A reframe that helps work and motherhood stop feeling like competing priorities The sneaky belief underneath the guilt loop: loving work means loving your kids less A broader definition of self-care (including meaningful work, creativity, and purpose) Why flexibility can create decision fatigue—and how to make choices without spiraling Three questions to help you fully choose and stop reopening the debate every 15 minutesIf This ResonatesIf this hit home, I'd love to support you. This is exactly the kind of work I do with my coaching clients—untangling guilt, decision fatigue, and the constant “should” loop so you can actually feel present in your life. Book a free consult and we'll talk through what's happening and what would make it feel lighter.Resources & Links

Send us Fan MailFive assets keep showing up when divorcing couples hit a wall, and the reason is almost never just emotion. It is value. I sit down with founding attorney Lewis Landerholm to unpack why retirement accounts, the marital home, business interests, investment portfolios, and valuable personal property become the flashpoints in divorce and family law cases, especially when each asset carries different tax rules, different volatility, and different paperwork.We get practical about the hidden math: why pre tax 401(k) dollars are not the same as cash, when pensions require an actuary, and how premarital versus marital components can change the division. Then we move to the marital home, where the deed is often easy but the mortgage can be the real obstacle, particularly when a refinance means higher interest rates and a smaller buying power for the spouse who keeps the property. We also explain why judges tend to choose the simplest clean break if a plan is not realistic, and why vague terms in a divorce decree can lead to expensive enforcement fights years later.From there we dig into business valuation, including why picking the right valuation expert matters, what happens when both spouses work in the business, and how buyouts can collide with future cash flow and support issues. We also cover investment accounts, RSUs and stock gains, cost basis, and the tax surprises that can dwarf the “headline” account value. Finally, we talk about appraisals for cars, jewelry, art, and even bitcoin, where volatility makes timing and documentation critical.If you found this helpful, subscribe for more real world divorce guidance, share this with someone sorting out a separation, and leave a review so more families can find clear answers.If you would like to speak with one of our attorneys, please call our office at (503) 227-0200, or visit our website at https://www.pacificcascadelegal.com.Disclaimer: Nothing in this communication is intended to provide legal advice nor does it constitute a client-attorney relationship, therefore you should not interpret the contents as such.

January is doing what it does best – pulling markets in opposite directions. Beef splits between falling middle meats and rising end cuts, chicken prices wake up, pork stays a value, grains soften, and dairy pushes into rare territory. These early-year moves may look quiet, but they're setting up what comes next. BEEF: The New Year split continues — middle meats are sliding while end cuts quietly climb. With Valentine's Day approaching and demand holding steady, this market is setting up for its next turn sooner than it looks.POULTRY: Chicken prices are officially on the move, led by breasts with wings and tenders following close behind. Add a slipping hatch rate and ongoing avian flu cases, and this value market may not stay cheap for long.GRAINS: Grain prices took another step lower as supply keeps growing faster than demand. Great news for feeders, but these markets are still searching for a spark.PORK: Pork remains one of the strongest values on the board, even as prices begin to inch higher. With steady production ahead, this quiet strength could be telling.DAIRY: Dairy keeps pushing lower into territory we haven't seen since the pandemic. Whether this creates short-term opportunity or signals something deeper is the question worth watching.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Send us a textRHOP-Pink Ponies, Shady Kisses, and Family FightsRHOP S10 E12 – “Potomac and Ponies and Problems” Podcast SummaryThis episode picks up right where tensions left off, with Angel clarifying the confusion around her move and timeline. She insists there was no eviction and that had she known the exact July 1 date, she never would've put her family in that position. Ashley questions whether Angel moved to be part of the group, which Angel firmly denies.At the polo day, relationships and awkward dynamics take center stage. Eddie shares with the guys that his and Wendy's 15-year anniversary is coming up—and Wendy wants a new ring. Charisse introduces herself to Stacy's partner Thiemo, who later leaves early, prompting Giselle to question why the group is “handling him with kid gloves.”The day turns playful with lawn games: a three-legged race (Ashley & Jassi win), tug-of-war, and a pink inflatable pony relay. But the fun is quickly overshadowed by a bombshell revelation—Ashley admits she once kissed Charisse's son Jackson after a crab boil in 2023. The group is stunned, with reactions ranging from disbelief to “that should've gone to the grave.”At home, we see deeper family and relationship moments. Tia juggles parenting woes and reconnects emotionally with her sister Ameera, sharing a powerful conversation about their late father, childhood distance, and healing as adults. Angel prepares for a Colorado trip tied to her luxury outdoor business, Wanderland, while feeling overwhelmed trying to host friends properly.Stacy and Thiemo attempt to rebuild their relationship, bonding at the gym and agreeing they made the right choice for their daughter. Meanwhile, Kiarna moves back in with Greg—again—only to be left questioning his commitment after an underwhelming “gift” and his refusal to discuss changing the deed if they marry.The emotional core of the episode belongs to Wendy. After renovating her home, she bravely reaches out to her estranged father for the first time in years. The call is warm, emotional, and leaves Wendy hopeful. However, that optimism is shattered when Wendy's mother and sister visit. What begins as admiration for the renovations erupts into a painful, explosive argument about Wendy's father—his absence, past hurt, and unresolved resentment. The argument escalates in front of the children, forcing Wendy to draw boundaries, which only fuels her mother's anger. Eddie steps in to de-escalate, but the damage is done, leaving Wendy in tears and feeling painfully alone.The episode ends with fractured relationships, unresolved family trauma, and the reminder that in Potomac, even a day of ponies can't outrun deep-rooted problems.Support the showhttps://www.wewinewhenever.com/
Mike Dickson sees a solid macro backdrop into 2026 and thinks the rotation trade may continue as earnings broaden. “We're pretty close to neutral” on rates, he argues, adding that it “doesn't really matter” who the next Fed Chair is. Absent weakness in the labor market, he expects the committee to continue a “tug of war.” He breaks down sectors he's watching for next year, including tech and healthcare. Margins will be the most sensitive area to watch, he concludes.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In this episode, host Cary Sinnett is joined by Jeff Levine, CPA, CFP, and nationally recognized tax planning thought leader, to examine one of the most persistent dilemmas in personal financial planning: the tension between income tax strategies and estate tax minimization. They explore why these two priorities often conflict and walk through practical examples CPA financial planners face when advising clients on gifting, step-up in basis, trust structures, and navigating compressed tax brackets. Jeff explains how changes to the federal estate tax exemption, evolving client priorities, and multi-generational considerations require a fresh look at long-standing estate planning techniques. Whether you are working with high net worth business owners or everyday clients with legacy concerns, this episode offers clear guidance on when to prioritize short-term tax efficiency, when to focus on long-term wealth transfer, and how to serve both goals when possible. Topics Covered: Why estate and income tax strategies often work against each other The trade-off between gifting highly appreciated assets versus preserving step-up in basis When income tax planning should take priority even for affluent clients Rethinking outdated uses of credit shelter trusts in the modern exemption environment Grantor versus non-grantor trusts and the income tax implications of each Building flexibility into irrevocable trusts through toggling, decanting, and situs changes AICPA Resources: Toolkit: Year-end planning Article: Tax Trifecta Trust after H.R. 1 Article: Year-End Planning Through the Lens of H.R. 1 Guide Excerpt: The Adviser's Guide to Financial & Estate Planning: V4 This episode is brought to you by the AICPA's Personal Financial Planning Section, the premier provider of information, tools, advocacy, and guidance for professionals who specialize in providing tax, estate, retirement, risk management and investment planning advice.

This revelation, published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, highlights the complex movements of Cepheid variable stars within the galaxy, indicating that it is being stretched in multiple directions. By utilizing data from the European Space Agency's Gaia satellite, researchers have gained unprecedented insights into the interactions between these two galaxies, prompting a reevaluation of their structural dynamics and gravitational relationships with the Milky Way.Europa's Spider: Signs of Subsurface Water?A striking spider-like feature on Jupiter's moon Europa has scientists buzzing with excitement. Researchers suggest this formation, found near the Menanan impact crater, may be evidence of subsurface water seeping through the moon's icy crust following an asteroid impact. The findings, reported in the Planetary Science Journal, could have significant implications for the moon's habitability and the presence of life. By drawing parallels with similar features on Mars, scientists are eager to explore Europa's subsurface properties further, especially with the upcoming Europa Clipper mission set to launch in April 2030.Mars: A Longer Habitable History?New research indicates that Mars may have been habitable for a much longer duration than previously believed. A study published in the Journal of Geophysical Research Planets reveals that ancient underground water may have flowed beneath the Martian sand dunes, creating conditions conducive to life long after its surface water disappeared. This discovery not only enhances our understanding of Mars' geological history but also highlights the potential of subsurface environments as targets for future exploration in the search for past life.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstrophysical Journal LettersPlanetary Science JournalJournal of Geophysical Research PlanetsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.

Today's guest is Joe Davis, Vanguard's Global Chief Economist and Global Head of Vanguard's Investment Strategy Group. His latest research on megatrends is covered in his book, Coming Into View: How AI and Other Megatrends Will Shape Your Investments. In today's episode, Joe explains why the coming decade for the U.S. economy will be shaped by a tug-of-war between AI and demographics-driven deficits. While the most likely outcome is optimistic (the benefits of AI offset demographic pressures), the next most likely outcome is pessimistic (AI fails to meet our expectations and growth tumbles, putting pressure on the government's balance sheet). Joe emphasizes the need for investors to prepare for non-consensus outcomes and embrace diversification to navigate this uncertain future.

Doug McHoney (PwC's International Tax Services Global Leader) is joined by Chris Desmond, a Principal in PwC's Customs & Trade Practice. Chris leads PwC US's Global Trade Services. Doug and Chris, while at PwC's Global Transfer Pricing, Customs, and Indirect Tax Conference in Prague, discuss the Supreme Court's expedited review of IEEPA‑based tariffs, possible outcomes, and the implications of an estimated ~$108B refund exposure across multiple industries (See our PwC Insight: IEEPA Tarrif: Understanding the Potential outcomes ahead of the Supreme Court's Ruling for more details). They cover how persistent tariffs elevate customs to the C‑suite and require close integration with transfer pricing and Pillar Two modeling. They also discuss practical mitigations including first sale for export, duty drawback, Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) reclassification and origin analysis, transfer‑pricing alignment, and use of foreign‑trade zones -- paired with rigorous controls as US government scrutiny intensifies. The episode closes with sector‑specific developments and a data‑driven playbook.

It's essentially the opposite of artificial intelligence — the innate, deeply human abilities we're all born with but often lose touch with over time. U.S. Army Special Operations has been studying it, along with my guest, Angus Fletcher. He's a professor of story science at Ohio State's Project Narrative and was awarded the U.S. Army Commendation Medal in 2023 for his groundbreaking research into primal intelligence. In this fascinating conversation, Angus shares how we can reclaim and strengthen this natural gift to solve problems, adapt faster, and think more creatively. He's the author of Primal Intelligence: You Are Smarter Than You Know (https://amzn.to/3HvfeMi). Humans are wired to both compete and cooperate. While we evolved to survive in groups, we have our own self-interests and desires. So how do we strike the right balance between cooperation and competition? Jonathan Goodman, social scientist at the University of Cambridge, unpacks this age-old tension — revealing how it shapes our relationships, workplaces, and even our evolution. He's the author of Invisible Rivals: How We Evolved to Compete in a Cooperative World (https://amzn.to/45QBrh1), and his insights might change how you see human nature itself. The number of overweight pets in the U.S. continues to escalate. Well over half of the dogs and cats in this country are overweight or obese.
