Today we were thrilled to host Julien Dumoulin-Smith, Managing Director of U.S. Power, Utilities, and Clean Energy Research at Jefferies. Julien joined the firm in July 2024 after serving as a Senior Research Analyst at Bank of America Merrill Lynch and as an Executive Director at UBS. He holds an MBA and a B.S. in Applied Mathematics from Columbia University. Institutional Investor magazine has ranked Julien as a #1 double-ranked analyst in both Utilities and Alternative/Clean Energy, and he was inducted into the II Hall of Fame for his cumulative accomplishments. It was our pleasure to welcome Julien to our office and hear his thoughtful perspectives on the ever-evolving energy and power landscape. In our discussion, we explore Julien's coverage universe, which he describes as “the full electron and derivatives landscape” spanning utilities, IPPs, renewables, gas plants, industrial adjacencies, and service providers. We discuss the influx of new investors entering power and utilities, Julien's observation that the biggest surprise isn't data center proliferation, but rather how tech companies are paying premiums for power to secure supply, and how utilities once seen as “defensive” are now showing growth characteristics. We touch on the tension between tech companies' need for rapid, large-scale power and their reluctance to become capital-intensive or FERC-regulated, why we're not seeing more long-term offtakes with existing power plants and how state level politics play into it, and how legacy players, new entrants, and regulators are all adapting to a power market being reshaped by AI demand, infrastructure bottlenecks, and novel deal structures. Julien shares that rising inflation across the economy is showing up in utility bills and expresses concern that LNG developers or data centers could be scapegoated for higher gas and power prices. He highlights the parabolic rise in the value of capacity and reliability, the drivers of power inflation including turbine shortages and rising capital costs, whether utilities are properly incentivized to control costs, the role of demand-response mechanisms, and how regulatory and state-level actions are shaping markets. We cover power market scenarios for high and low demand cases, the role of innovation in batteries, fuel cells, and other technologies, and the tension between patching existing systems versus building large-scale infrastructure. We also discuss constraints on ramping renewables, the growing influence of behind-the-meter power, implications for Q3 earnings, and much more. We covered a lot of territory and greatly enjoyed the conversation.

The 10-year bond yield continues to trade sideways at ~4.1% with economic reports on pause until the government reopens. Internationally, Japan's Liberal Democratic Party elected Sanae Takaichi (who is viewed as fiscally expansionary), which some believe increases the risk of an unwind of the long-standing Yen carry trade. The S&P 500 is up roughly 80bps since the government shutdown, with Healthcare and Technology outperforming. He highlighted AMD's chip deal with OpenAI, which added roughly $70B in market cap, and Oracle's pullback on AI cloud margin concerns. On the crude oil market front, WTI price has increased modestly this week due to OPEC+ announcing a smaller than expected ~135kbpd oil production increase for November. While this could widen the 2026 surplus, traders are weighing when and how prices might react amid limited OPEC spare capacity. On the energy equity front, he pointed out FERMI America's strong IPO debut and continued investor enthusiasm for electricity generation. He ended by flagging the upcoming Rockpoint Gas Storage IPO (280bcf in Canada &

Preaching is never meant to stop at information - it is meant to produce transformation. That was the heart of Eric Lockhart's message, Preaching for Change and Obedience, delivered at the Expositors Collective training event in Kampala on 13 September 2024. With warmth and clarity, Eric urged preachers to stay rooted in the biblical text while pressing their listeners toward holiness and obedience through Spirit-empowered application.He reminded participants that the preacher's task is not to simply talk about the Bible but to faithfully declare what the Bible says. Using the image of a river, Eric explained that the power of preaching flows from the Holy Spirit working through the proclamation of Scripture. The goal is not to impress hearers with knowledge but to persuade them toward faithful action in response to God's Word.Eric also highlighted the necessity of application, both in the preacher's own life and in the lives of the audience. Biblical truth, he insisted, always demands a response. Application may be woven throughout a sermon or drawn out at the end, but it must be Christ-centred, specific, and actionable. In doing so, preaching helps believers become doers of the Word and not hearers only.Mr Eric Lockhart serves as Deputy Principal of Academic Affairs at Uganda Baptist Seminary. He holds an MDiv and ThM from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in North Carolina, and before moving to Uganda in 2018 with his wife and four boys, he pastored in the USA for fourteen years. At UBS, he lectures on Hermeneutics and Homiletics and continues to champion preaching that does more than inform - preaching that transforms.Mr. Eric Lockhart is First Deputy Principal of Academic Affairs at Uganda Baptist Seminary in Jinja, UG where he also serves as Lecturer. In addition, he serves with the International Mission Board (IMB) as the Theological Education Strategist for Sub-Saharan Africa. Likewise, he serves as convener of ABTEN and a contributor to AB316, the writing branch of ABTEN. Mr. Lockhart holds both a MDiv in Christian Ministry and a ThM in Applied Theology from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary (SEBTS) in Wake Forest, NC. He is currently pursuing a PhD in Applied Theology with an emphasis on preaching. Mr. Lockhart is a contributing author and co-editor of  True Prosperity: A Bible Study for the African Church. Previously, he served eighteen years as a pastor in United States. He has been married to Rebekah for 23 years. They are blessed with four sons, Elijah, Noah, Gavin, and Corban.For information about our upcoming training events visit ExpositorsCollective.com The Expositors Collective podcast is part of the CGNMedia, Working together to proclaim the Gospel, make disciples, and plant churches.

La scorsa settimana il Consiglio Federale ha messo in consultazione la regola che più scotta tra quelle pensate per evitare un nuovo disastro come quello che fece scomparire il Credit Suisse: i requisiti in capitale proprio per le banche di rilevanza sistemica con filiali all'estero. Questa regola, di fatto, interessa solo UBS, tant'è vero che già si parla di una “Lex UBS”. E UBS si è già fatta sentire: ha detto che quella regola è troppo severa, troppo distante dagli standard internazionali e che penalizza esageratamente la sua competitività con i concorrenti all'estero.La prima banca elvetica ha però anche in qualche modo lasciato capire, pur affermando il suo attaccamento per il Paese, che nell'assenza di passi indietro di Berna potrebbe anche essere costretta a lasciare la Svizzera e trasferire la sua sede centrale altrove, forse negli Stati Uniti. Ma quanto è credibile questa possibilità? Quanto sarebbe opportuna per una banca che neanche tanti anni fa fu salvata da Berna e che ha poi ricevuto per una cifra considerata irrisoria l'ex concorrente Credit Suisse? Quali conseguenze avrebbe una simile decisione per la piazza finanziaria ed economica svizzera? E per UBS andarsene sarebbe davvero un vantaggio? Ne discutiamo con: ·      Alberto Petruzzella, Presidente dell'Associazione bancaria ticinese·      Carlo Lombardini, avvocato, professore di diritto bancario all'Università di Losanna, siede in alcuni Consigli d'amministrazione di banche·      Sergio Rossi, professore di macroeconomia e economia monetaria all'Università di Friburgo

This episode of Leaders in Investment was recorded live on stage at the IPE Real Assets Infrastructure & Natural Capital Global Conference & Awards in Rotterdam. In the interview Jan-Willem is interviewed by IPE Real Assets Editor in Chief Richard Lowe. They discuss why pension funds should look to take back their power and invest for the long term, seeking strong societal value; how APG plans to grow its infra allocation from 6% to 10% of its portfolio by 2030; his conviction that geopolitical volatility should not cause investors to panic or change course and the parallels between what the energy transition looked like 10 or 15 years ago, to where biodiversity is now. This episode of Leaders in Investment is sponsored by UBS. ‘The truth is that the threat to biodiversity is a bigger threat to us as humankind than the energy transition.’ In this podcast series from IPE and IPE Real Assets, members of our editorial team speak to leading figures in the institutional investor community to curate a library of in-depth, focused content. Conversations with chief investment officers and other asset-owner leaders will range across beliefs, objectives, investment philosophy, strategy and outlook. Engaging with asset owners both in Europe and beyond, this series will provide unique access to the thinking that guides their decisions.

In his 20s, yet running a $50billion book, Kweku Adoboli had worked his way up the trading floor at the very point the market crashed. His actions wiped £2.7bn from the UBS share price, prompted the resignation of their chief executive - and got him a seven-year jail sentence for fraud. In this remarkable interview with Olly, he reveals a corporate culture of ‘wilful blindness', explains how he fell foul of the UK's hostile environment policy for migrants - and re-lives the moment he realised that, having taken responsibility for his actions, he would forever be known as Britain's biggest ‘rogue trader'... This episode first aired in February 2018. Now remastered and with an update from Olly, we've paired this episode with Priscilla Coleman's interview on Drawn To Justice, released this month.

Send us a text◆ QNB deal to pique Gulf interest in euro issuance ◆ Denmark develops green market with EuGB ◆ Foreign AT1s return to Aussie marketGlobalCapital began life in 1987 as a weekly newspaper called EuroWeek, dedicated to tracking the international flows of capital developing in the growing Eurobond market. This week provided some classic examples of the genre as borrowers looked abroad for new sources of cash.QNB, a Qatar bank, priced an eye-catching bond in euros this week. It was the issuer's first in the currency and offered a tantalising glimpse of an underexploited pool of cash to Gulf borrowers. We discuss why the region's issuers can and should visit the market.Denmark, meanwhile, may not have come to the international markets but it did do an important green bond — one that adhered to the European Union Green Bond Standard. We delve into why this trade was such an important development for this nascent asset class.Finally, UBS brought the first additional tier one bond in Australian dollars for six years. Again, the deal will tip off other big European banks that there is cash to be raised in the Australian market. We explain why AT1s work in Aussie dollars even after the Australian regulator binned the asset class for its own banks in what is an illustrative tale of how important the market is becoming to international bond issuers.

Ze dachten dat ze ervanaf waren bij Philips. Patiënten, slachtoffers, de Amerikaanse toezichthouder... Met iedereen hadden ze een schikking weten te treffen in het drama rond de apneu-apparaten die vlam vatten. Toch moet Philips nog even herinnerd worden aan het schandaal dat de beurskoers jarenlang in z'n greep had. Want juist die beleggers die hun geld zagen verdampen, die willen nu hun gelijk krijgen. De VEB vraagt de rechter om een onafhankelijk onderzoek, en mocht dat grote fouten bij Philips uitwijzen dan kan er een schadevergoeding geëist worden. Hoe gaat Philips het apneu-spook weer terug in de fles krijgen? En is het dan ein-de-lijk klaar met het drama? Dat bespreken we deze aflevering. Dan pakken we ook de meetlat erbij. We gaan kijken wie de grootste heeft. Amerika of China? We hebben het over hun datacenters. Bedrijven in beide landen blijven maar keer op keer nieuwe plannen aankondigen. De geldput lijkt geen bodem te hebben. Maar wie wint uiteindelijk? En het gaat ook nog over de treurwilg van de dag. Dat is Jerome Powell, de baas van de Federal Reserve. Hij drukt de stemming met een speech vol waarschuwingen over de lage rente, de arbeidsmarkt, en: de 'redelijk hoog gewaardeerde aandelen'.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

China must accelerate reform measures to reinforce the stable and healthy development of the capital market in the coming five years as a strategic pivot in transforming the country's economic growth model, said leading economists and financial experts.著名经济学家和金融专家表示，中国必须加快改革措施，在未来五年加强资本市场的稳定和健康发展，作为转变国家经济增长模式的战略支点。Despite Thursday's market correction, they said the recent rally in Chinese equities, together with the ongoing regulatory initiatives to enhance market stability, still highlights a strategic shift toward positioning the capital market as a central driver of innovation, consumption and domestic economic circulation amid external headwinds.他们表示，尽管周四出现了市场回调，但中国股市近期的反弹，以及正在实施的加强市场稳定的监管举措，仍突显出在外部不利因素的影响下，中国将资本市场定位为创新、消费和国内经济循环的核心驱动力的战略转变。Looking at the new round of capital market reform to be unfolded in the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-30) period, top priorities should include firmer determination to close regulatory loopholes that leave room for improper profits, ensure market fairness for retail investors, and improve transparency for global investors, they added.他们补充说，展望第15个五年计划（2026-30）期间将展开的新一轮资本市场改革，当务之急应该包括更坚定地弥补为不正当利润留下空间的监管漏洞，确保散户投资者的市场公平，提高全球投资者的透明度。Proposals for formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan for national economic and social development will be studied at the fourth plenary session of the 20th Communist Party of China Central Committee, scheduled to be held in Beijing in October.关于制定国民经济和社会发展第15个五年计划的建议将在定于10月在北京举行的中国共产党第二十届中央委员会第四次全体会议上进行研究。Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, called for giving full play to the pivotal role of the capital market at the Central Financial Work Conference in 2023.习近平，中国共产党中央委员会主席，在2023年的中央金融工作会议上，要求充分发挥资本市场的关键作用。At the CPC Central Committee Political Bureau meeting on July 30, which Xi chaired, it was pointed out that the attractiveness and inclusiveness of the domestic capital market should be boosted, in order to consolidate the improving and stabilizing trend of the capital market.7月30日习主持的中共中央政治局会议上，习指出要增强国内资本市场的吸引力和包容性，巩固资本市场向好企稳的态势。"The ongoing rise of A shares reflects that the strategic position of the capital market in China's economic agenda is rising significantly," said Tian Xuan, president of Tsinghua University's National Institute of Financial Research and associate dean of Tsinghua University's PBC School of Finance.清华大学国家金融研究院院长、中国人民银行金融学院副院长田轩表示：“A股的持续上涨反映出资本市场在中国经济议程中的战略地位正在显著上升。”In the upcoming 15th Five-Year Plan period, high-quality development of the capital market will act not only as a key pathway to address structural economic issues, but also as the "central pivot" for transforming the country's growth model, Tian said.田说，在即将到来的“十五”计划期间，资本市场的高质量发展不仅是解决结构性经济问题的关键途径，而且是转变国家增长模式的“中心支点”。The bottlenecks faced by traditional growth drivers, the remaining financing difficulties for innovation and intensified global tech competition all demand steady, healthy growth of the capital market to guide long-term capital into core technologies, Tian said. The growing household demand for wealth management also requires the capital market to provide diverse investment channels, he said.田说，传统增长动力面临的瓶颈，创新的剩余融资困难以及加剧的全球技术竞争都需要资本市场稳定，健康的增长，以引导长期资本进入核心技术。他说，家庭对财富管理日益增长的需求也要求资本市场提供多样化的投资渠道。He added that China should further improve fundamental institutions to ensure sustainable market momentum, calling for better management of expectations, greater policy transparency and timely, positive signals to shore up sentiment, as well as stricter information disclosure and an improved delisting mechanism to raise listed companies' quality.他补充说，中国应该进一步完善基本制度，以确保市场的可持续发展势头，呼吁更好地管理预期，提高政策透明度，及时发出积极信号来提振市场情绪，以及更严格的信息披露和完善的退市机制，以提高上市公司的质量。China's A-share market fell on Thursday, as experts cited profit-taking pressure, while the United States Federal Reserve's 25-basis-point interest rate cut on Wednesday fell short of some investors' expectations for a bolder move.中国A股市场周四下跌，专家们认为这是获利了结的压力，而美联储周三降息25个基点的决定，没有达到一些投资者对更大胆举措的预期。Despite a 1.15 percent drop on Thursday, the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index has risen by nearly a quarter from the April trough, closing at 3,831.66 points. US investment bank Goldman Sachs said in a report on Thursday that it forecasts an 8 percent upside for the A-share market over the coming 12 months.尽管周四下跌了1.15%，但基准上证综合指数已经从4月份的低点上涨了近四分之一，收于3831.66点。美国投资银行高盛在周四的一份报告中表示，预计未来12个月a股市场将上涨8%。Liu Jipeng, a senior expert on capital markets and a professor at the Business School of China University of Political Science and Law, said that further closing regulatory gaps to safeguard market fairness and investor interest would hold the key to future capital market reforms and steady market growth.资本市场资深专家、中国政法大学商学院教授刘继鹏表示，进一步缩小监管空白，以维护市场公平和投资者利益，将是未来资本市场改革和市场稳定增长的关键。"A slow bull market has taken shape. The goal should be making it steady and long-lasting, so that the capital market can serve as a platform for common prosperity, where the majority of investors can share returns, rather than only a few getting rich overnight," Liu said.“一个缓慢的牛市已经形成。目标应该是使其稳定和持久，以便资本市场可以作为共同繁荣的平台，大多数投资者可以分享回报，而不是只有少数人一夜暴富。”Wu Qing, chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, pledged at a recent symposium to accelerate the new round of capital market reform and opening-up to consolidate the improving market trend, stressing that the market is at a crucial stage in its pursuit of high-quality development in the 15th Five-Year Plan period.中国证券监督管理委员会主席吴清在最近的一次座谈会上承诺，将加快新一轮资本市场改革开放，巩固市场向好趋势，并强调市场正处于“十五”期间追求高质量发展的关键阶段。China has ramped up capital market reform efforts after it released a high-level guideline in April last year, rolling out nine measures to promote the high-quality development of the capital market.自去年4月发布高层指导意见以来，中国加大了资本市场改革力度，推出了促进资本市场高质量发展的九项措施。Since then, the country has issued new rules and measures to better regulate holding reductions by major shareholders, raise the dividends for equity shareholders, and encourage the entry of long-term capital while improving mechanisms to anchor market liquidity amid slumps.此后，国家出台了新的规则和措施，以更好地规范大股东减持，提高股东股息，鼓励长期资本进入，同时完善机制，以稳定市场流动性。Liu attributed the recent rally to such reform measures, and said that more must be done to further enhance market fairness, including in areas such as stock issuance review and pricing, quantitative trading and large shareholders' stakes.刘将最近的反弹归因于这些改革措施，并表示必须做更多的工作来进一步增强市场公平，包括股票发行审查和定价，量化交易和大股东股权等领域。Luo Zhiheng, chief economist at Yuekai Securities, said that enforcing rules with greater rigor and raising penalties for fraudulent practices are essential to building lasting investor trust.悦凯证券首席经济学家罗志恒表示，更严格地执行规定，加大对欺诈行为的惩罚力度，对于建立投资者的持久信任至关重要。With the A-share market showing an improving and stabilizing trend, Luo said it can lift household income and offset part of the drag from the housing slowdown, and make people more confident to spend, thus supporting consumption and overall economic vitality.随着A股市场呈现出改善和稳定的趋势，罗说，这可以提高家庭收入，抵消住房放缓的部分拖累，使人们更有信心消费，从而支持消费和整体经济活力。The A-share rally has also enhanced the attractiveness of Chinese financial markets globally.a股的上涨也增强了中国金融市场在全球的吸引力。Thomas Fang, head of China global markets at investment bank UBS, said that global investors are showing greater interest in Chinese financial assets as the country's shining economic prospects help them to diversify their allocations from US dollar-denominated assets.投资银行瑞银（UBS）中国全球市场主管方德华（Thomas Fang）表示，全球投资者对中国金融资产表现出更大的兴趣，因为中国光明的经济前景有助于他们将资产配置从美元计价资产中分散出来。Fang applauded China's recent opening-up policies that offer global investors more instruments to invest in China, facilitating their risk management and helping them take bigger positions in the country.方赞扬了中国最近的开放政策，为全球投资者提供了更多投资中国的工具，促进了他们的风险管理，并帮助他们在中国占据更大的位置。capital market reformn.资本市场改革/ˈkæpɪtl ˈmɑːkɪt rɪˈfɔːm/A-share marketn.A股市场（中国内地股票市场）/eɪ ʃeə ˈmɑːkɪt/

שלום, הגעתם לאינטרסנטים הפודקאסט הכלכלי היומי שלTheMarker , יום ראשון 21 בספטמבר, היום ה-716 למלחמה, 48 חטופים עדיין בעזה. באולפן איתן אבריאל ומהבית – סמי פרץ. (10:26) ערב ראש השנה, לאחר שנתיים של מלחמה וכמעט שלוש שנים של הפיכה משטרית שמיועדת להפוך את ישראל לאוטוקרטיה של איש אחד, למרות כלכלה שמתחילה לקרטע ובידוד בינלאומי, נראה שממשלת ישראל והעומד בראשה נחושים להמשיך בדיוק באותה הדרך. נכון להיום אירופה שואפת, לדבריה, להציל את אזרחי ישראל מהקואליציה ששולטת בהם על ידי הטלת סנקציות כלכליות והכרה במדינה פלסטינית, ואילו הפוליטיקאים בישראל כבר מדברים בגלוי על הניסיון הצפוי לדחות את לשבש את הבחירות בשנה הבאה. האם זה מה שיקרה? לא מעט תלוי בשאלה האם האלוף, דוד זיני, יקבל את האישור לעמוד בראש השב"כ, הגוף הביטחוני שאמון על שמירת הדמוקרטיה הישראלית. זיני יתייצב היום מול ועדת גרוניס הדנה באישור המינוי, ולכן אנחנו נדבר עם פרופ' ברק מדינה, מומחה למשפט חוקתי, לשעבר רקטור האוניברסיטה העברית ודיקן הפקולטה למשפטים. (24:50) בינתיים, בכלכלה, נראה שהאופטימיות של ראש הממשלה, שאותה הוא הציג במסיבת העיתונאים שערך בשבוע שעבר כדי לתקן את הרושם המחריד שהוא השאיר אחרי 'נאום ספרטה', לא בדיוק מחוברת למציאות. הצמיחה לנפש נמוכה, אבדן התוצר בשנתיים האחרונות הוא עצום, ישראלים רבים עוזבים את המדינה ומאזן ההגירה הפך לשלילי, ואחרים החלו שוב להוציא חלקים מהכסף שלהם לחו"ל – כביטוח נגד התסריט בו הבידוד הבינלאומי יגרום לממשלת ישראל להטיל מגבלות על תנועות הון, כפי שהיה בישראל בעשורים הראשונים שלאחר הקמתה, וכפי שקיים במדינות מוכות סנקציות כמו רוסיה. איך אנחנו יודעים את זה? ד"ר בועז ברק, לשעבר חבר הנהלה בקרדיט סוויס וUBS שאל את עמיתיו בציריך ובג'נבה – והוא יביא את הממצאים שלו. (37:29) והנה, בכל זאת, פיסת מידע חיובית. בשנים האחרונות כמעט בכל פעם שדיברנו כאן על חברת אינטל, שהיא המעסיקה הכי גדולה והיצואנית הכי גדולה בהיי-טק הישראלי, זה היה בהקשרים שליליים. היו החלפות מנהלים, היו צמצום בכוח אדם, היו סימני שאלה על השלמת המפעל החדש – וזו רשימה חלקית. הפעם, בסוף השבוע האחרון, קרה לאינטל משהו טוב: חברת אנבידיה, יצרנית שבבי הבינה המלאכותית, הודיעה שהיא תשקיע באינטל 5 מיליארד דולר וגם תשתף איתה פעולה – והמניה זינקה ב-25%. האם העובדים בקריית גת ובחיפה צריכים לפתוח בקבוקי שמפניה? אנחנו נדבר עם עורך ההיי-טק שלנו, שגיא כהן.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

De cryptomarkt laat zich deze week van zijn beste kant zien. Bitcoin noteert 117.000 dollar, een paar procent hoger dan vorige week. Dat optimisme komt vooral door de draai bij de Amerikaanse Federal Reserve, waar voorzitter Jerome Powell een meer stimulerende toon aansloeg. Voor beleggers in crypto betekent dat een steuntje in de rug. Het sentiment is duidelijk breder: ook altcoins doen het goed, met flinke plussen voor Binance Coin, Solana en Dogecoin. Dat positieve beeld zien we terug bij de beleggingsfondsen. De Bitcoin ETF’s beleefden hun sterkste instroom sinds juni en ook de Ethereum ETF’s trekken nieuwe investeerders. Tegelijkertijd lijkt de markt overspoeld te worden met aanvragen voor nieuwe fondsen. Na de Dogecoin ETF volgen talloze andere plannen, waaronder een voorstel voor een BONK ETF. Die moet niet alleen inspelen op de prijs van de memecoin, maar ook via een optiestrategie maandelijks inkomen genereren. Daarmee wordt de gok eigenlijk dubbel: op de munt én op het slagen van de strategie. Sinds de Amerikaanse toezichthouder van koers veranderde, is het hek van de dam en lijken dit soort aanvragen eerder regel dan uitzondering. Ook rond crypto-exchange Gemini is er nieuws. Het bedrijf van de Winklevoss-tweeling maakt morgen zijn debuut op de beurs. Gemini stond jarenlang bekend als de braafste partij van de Verenigde Staten als het om regelgeving ging, maar inmiddels is dat speelveld veranderd. Toch blijkt de belangstelling groot: volgens Reuters was de vraag twintig keer groter dan het aanbod, zelfs nadat de prijs per aandeel al werd verhoogd. De beursgang levert 425 miljoen dollar op en waardeert het bedrijf op 3,3 miljard dollar. Daarmee lijkt opnieuw een cryptobedrijf succesvol de stap naar de beurs te zetten. In Zwitserland wordt ondertussen geschreven aan een primeur. Drie banken, waaronder UBS, claimen de eerste juridisch bindende betaling via een publieke blockchain te hebben gedaan. Daarbij ging het om getokeniseerde banktegoeden die werden verstuurd over Ethereum. Dat is opvallend, omdat grote banken traditioneel terughoudend zijn met publieke blockchains. Juist dit soort toepassingen kan de manier waarop bankbetalingen wereldwijd werken ingrijpend veranderen. Tegelijkertijd wordt er volop gewerkt aan stablecoins. In de Verenigde Staten bracht de Genius-wetgeving duidelijkheid en inmiddels zijn vrijwel alle grote banken, betaaldienstverleners en fintechs ermee bezig. In Europa zijn er initiatieven bij onder meer Societe Generale en Duitse banken, terwijl ook ING plannen heeft. De Europese Centrale Bank volgt dit met argusogen. Deze week in de CryptocastEen gesprek met Solana-watcher Geale Simon Postma, over de tweede smartphone van Solana, de Seeker. Solana is het enige serieuze cryptonetwerk dat echt lijkt in te zetten op hardware, en deze smartphone is een heel aardige poging voor 450 dollar. Voor dat bedrag krijg je een midrange telefoon mét een aantal extra cryptofeatures, bijvoorbeeld een ingebouwde crypto-portemonnee en recht op -je raadt het al- allerlei gratis memecoins. Co-host is Jacob Boersma. Met Daniël Mol bespreken we elke week de stand van de cryptomarkt.

Das neu in Kraft getretene Fischerei-Abkommen der Welthandelsorganisation WTO soll die Ausbeutung der Weltmeere beenden. Mit dabei ist auch China - obwohl China immer wieder mit Verstössen gegen jetzt schon bestehende Abkommen auffällt. Was sich China davon erhofft, erklärt ein Beobachter. Weitere Themen: · Weniger Ferienwohnungen für Touristinnen und Touristen, mehr Wohnungen für Einheimische. Das will die spanische Regierung – und plant, mehr als 50'000 Ferienwohnungen von den Onlineplattformen streichen lassen. Denn die hohen Mieten gelten in Spanien als eines der grössten innenpolitischen Probleme. Ein Korrespondent erklärt, welche Ferienwohnungen nun gestrichen werden sollen. · Laut neu aufflammenden Gerüchten erwäge die UBS einen Wegzug aus der Schweiz. Offenbar haben Gespräche zwischen führenden Manager, der Bank und Vertretern der US-Regierung stattgefunden. Hintergrund sind strengere Vorschriften in der Schweiz, die aktuell in Bundesbern diskutiert werden. Der Wirtschafts-Redaktor sagt, was dazu bisher bekannt ist. · Menschen im Internet an den Pranger stellen - das nennt sich Doxing. Dieses Phänomen ist wieder Thema, seit dem Attentat auf den rechten Aktivisten Charlie Kirk in den USA. Fans des Trump-Unterstützers nutzen Plattformen, um Kritiker und Kritikerinnen abzustrafen. Unser Digitalredaktor sagt, wie problematisch das ist.

We took economics to a music festival, and somehow packed the tent. In this Electric Picnic highlights episode from Mindfield, we rock up bleary-eyed and buzzing, then dive straight into the big stuff: what Trump's assault on America's institutions means for money, markets, and the rest of us. We map the new super-cycle from post-war social democracy to Reagan-Thatcher finance, to today's populist reboot, and why we think the US is flirting with a fiscal, monetary, and dollar crunch. Closer to home, we ask why Ireland looks rich on paper but feels poor in reality. In between, we tell the story of the 1992 currency crisis, a lo-fi mission to the Dorchester, and accidentally swapping the Central Bank for UBS and because we were literally in a field surrounded by stages, we tackle the music economy: streaming's winner-takes-all logic, Daniel Ek's “music costs almost zero,” algorithms that feed nostalgia over novelty, and why culture only renews when the young can afford to create.

Most organizations aren't blind to the rising stress, burnout, and quiet quitting at work. They're just implementing workplace well-being programs that don't work. Leaders are left wondering why their people are disengaged despite offering meditation apps and mental health webinars.

On this week's episode of Viewpoints, Burkhard reflects on and share takeaways from his UBS summits on longevity, and shares perspective around the connection between longer lives and rising markets. Plus, a look at where to find opportunity in the current environment.

This week we are delighted to welcome Betty Jiang, Managing Director of U.S. Integrateds and E&P Equity Research at Barclays. Betty joined Barclays in 2023 after leading the U.S. ESG Research team at Credit Suisse and has more than 15 years of equity research experience, with prior roles at UBS, Illuminate Capital Group, and Bank of America. We were thrilled to hear Betty's insights on what's top of mind for investors, key themes from earnings, and a preview of Barclays' upcoming 39th Annual Energy-Power Conference, taking place next week from September 2-4 in New York. In our conversation, Betty shares why she finds energy research compelling and reflects on the interesting timing of her career, beginning in 2007 during the shale boom years. She explains how her experience in ESG and sustainability broadened her analytical skills and highlighted the complexity of the energy transition. We discuss the value of cross-sector research collaboration and Betty outlines key takeaways from Q2 earnings, including significant increases in free cash flow, shale resilience, a long-term bullish gas production outlook, and a market focus on efficiency and free cash flow discipline. We explore the intersection of gas and power demand and how factors like regional grid dynamics and AI are shaping the sector, the continuing need for baseload power, reluctance in adopting low-carbon gas, the importance of strategic positioning and capability for companies seeking exposure in power markets, and gas price and production outlook. Betty provides an insider perspective on how she navigates earnings season, noting how AI and research tools are increasingly shaping how research is consumed and analyzed, while emphasizing that AI cannot replace deep analysis essential for understanding nuance, context, and cross-company trends. We discuss the tension between short-term shareholder expectations and long-term strategic initiatives, emphasizing the importance of a clear “North Star” and consistent communication. Betty notes that energy sector investors vary widely, and while the E&P sector is generally out of favor with generalists, sustained capital discipline, cash returns, and demonstrated resilience are attracting renewed interest. We touch on the challenge of differentiation in energy companies and how thoughtful execution and innovative approaches can create competitive advantages, the key themes for Barclays' upcoming conference with over 170 companies currently registered to attend, how efficiency gains and current free cash flow could influence 2026 outlooks, and more. It was a fantastic discussion and we greatly appreciate Betty for sharing her time and insights. To start the show, Mike Bradley noted that last week's COBT theme was investor “anticipation” of the Jackson Hole meeting, while this week it's investor “expectations” around NVIDIA's Q2 results/forward guidance. On the broader equity front, the S&P 500 hit another high last week but traded sideways this week ahead of NVIDIA's Q2 results. NVIDIA expectations are pretty bullish, with most expecting a beat-and-raise quarter, and the only real question at this point is whether NVIDIA's forward outlook will be bullish enough to satisfy investors. At a $4.4 trillion market cap, larger than all but three countries' GDP, NVIDIA's AI commentary and forward guidance will be a market mover. On the crude oil market front, WTI price continues to trade sideways (low-mid $60s) amid continued 2H25 global oil surplus concerns that are being somewhat offset by lack of headway in Russian/Ukrainian peace (leading to possible stiff oil sanctions). On the natural gas front, U.S. natural gas price (prompt & 12mo strip) were trading at ~$2.70/MMBtu & ~$3.50/MMBtu (YTD lows). Investor sentiment is still more bullish for natural gas E&Ps, even though prompt natural gas price has significantly underperformed prompt WTI price this year. Mike also highlighted a

At the Wyoming Blockchain Summit, Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller delivered one of the most striking pro-crypto speeches ever from a senior central banker. Waller argued that decentralized finance is simply the next iteration of financial technology, praised stablecoins as now-mature infrastructure, and said the Fed itself must modernize its payment rails to be compatible with crypto. He even joked about trading meme coins on a DEX as if it were the most normal thing in the world. Later, Senator Cynthia Lummis outlined her timeline for market structure legislation, with momentum building around the Clarity Act. Meanwhile, Wall Street analysts from Goldman Sachs and UBS are increasingly focused on the multi-trillion-dollar stablecoin opportunity. Today's Breakdown unpacks the shifting discourse, the Fed's evolving stance, and why 2024 may be the decisive year for U.S. crypto regulation.
