Investopedia's Caleb Silver says there's a lot Cava Group (CAVA) needs to serve to investors when with its earnings report. While the company has experienced notable growth, Caleb tells investors to keep it in a category separate from giants like Chipotle (CMG), adding that Cava's valuation is stuffing the current price. Tom White adds example options trades for Cava and Chipotle to investors' plates.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Nigam Arora returns to Market on Close to discuss some of the biggest tech moves he's watching in the market. He's impressed with Microsoft (MSFT) continuing to beat "very high" expectations in Azure cloud and Copilot. On Palantir (PLTR), Nigam outlines the company's path to reaching $1 trillion in market cap. While he sees the current price-to-sales ratio as unsustainable, he says Palantir is "so deeply embedded" in the U.S. government that it has a "sticky" source of revenue even if its commercial business wavers.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Stepping beyond America's borders might be the smartest move for savvy investors right now. Phil Wool of Raliant Capital makes a compelling case for international equities—particularly emerging markets—at a time when U.S. stocks trade at historically high valuations.The numbers tell a striking story: U.S. equities currently command a Shiller-CAPE ratio of 38 times earnings—three standard deviations above historical averages. While this doesn't predict an imminent crash, it strongly suggests lower-than-average returns over the next decade. Meanwhile, international markets offer better growth prospects at more attractive valuations.Wool challenges the oversimplified narrative that international stocks have performed well this year solely because of dollar weakness. He highlights how emerging markets contain significant technology exposure, with many companies either competing with or supplying critical components to U.S. tech giants driving the AI revolution. This mirrors patterns from the dot-com era, when companies supplying internet infrastructure in emerging markets ultimately outperformed many headline-grabbing U.S. names.For investors concerned about selecting winners in unfamiliar markets, Raliant's "quantamental" approach offers a solution. Their systematic strategies analyze billions of data points to identify companies with strong fundamentals flying under the radar. They incorporate market-specific factors that pure fundamental investors might miss, like foreign institutional investor holdings in South Korea or retail investor behavior in Taiwan.Recent trade policy developments, including the Japan-U.S. trade agreement, demonstrate how market overreactions to political theater create opportunities for patient investors focused on fundamentals. These dislocations generate alpha for systematic strategies that can identify when stocks have unreasonably discounted good news or failed to properly price in positive developments.Ready to diversify globally? Consider using the ACWI as your benchmark, with approximately 60% in U.S. stocks and 15% in emerging markets—then adjust based on current valuations and opportunities. With today's pronounced valuation disparities, overweighting international exposure might be the prudent choice for investors seeking both diversification and potential outperformance in the coming years.

Zoom's Special Announcement – The summit will be the platform for a major product update from Zoom, the event's gold sponsor.

Marion and Peterson emphasize that the Financial Summit delivers three core benefits: direct access to the industry's top experts, unmatched C-level networking, and visibility with analysts who influence major buying decisions. For members and first-time attendees alike, it's a chance to align strategy with market reality while making high-value connections.

On the latest episode of the Financial Samurai podcast, I sat down with Ben Miller, cofounder and CEO of Fundrise, for a deep dive into AI, venture capital, and what it really takes to get into the best deals. Key Takeaways from the Podcast 1. AI Growth and Market Dynamics Revenue growth is accelerating in big AI companies like Anthropic. There's an AI benchmarking race where many products seem similar, but differentiation still matters—Ben Miller doesn't believe AI is a commodity at all. The biggest AI players continue to extend their lead, creating a “winner-take-most” dynamic. 2. Venture Capital Strategy and Concentration How much concentration is acceptable in a venture fund: up to 50% of the portfolio can be concentrated in just two companies. Importance of building a pipeline (“bench”) of potential giants like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Databricks. Leveraging scouts in key hubs like San Francisco to source the next wave of private growth companies. 3. Valuation and Economic Concepts Growth-Adjusted Revenue Multiple as a more nuanced valuation approach for high-growth companies. Baumol Effect – rising costs in labor-intensive sectors despite limited productivity gains, and how this might influence AI adoption and consumer behavior. 4. Access and Allocation Challenges Figma IPO: Allocation was difficult even for well-connected investors; demand for strong growth companies far outstrips supply. Innovation Fund's approach: invested in 6 of the top 50 companies on the CNBC Disruptor list. The battle of connections and wealth—strong networks often determine who gets into the best deals. See related post: The Futility Of Chasing Allocation In A Hot IPO Company 5. Strategic Advantages for Investors Directing a 2M+ user base to both invest in and use portfolio company products (examples: Ramp, Flywheel) as a growth driver. Using product adoption to create a feedback loop of higher valuations and more capital access. 6. Macro Perspectives on AI China's optimistic, aggressive push into AI contrasts with America's more cautious and sometimes pessimistic stance. Why I'm personally increasing my allocation to AI—both as a long-term growth opportunity and as a hedge against missing the next big wave. Invest in Private Growth Companies With Fundrise Companies are staying private longer, which means more gains go to early private investors rather than the public. If you don't want to fight in the IPO “Hunger Games” for scraps, consider Fundrise Venture. About 80% of the Fundrise venture portfolio is in artificial intelligence—an area I'm extremely bullish on. In 20 years, I don't want my kids asking why I ignored AI when it was still early. The investment minimum is just $10, compared with $200,000+ for most traditional venture funds (if you can even get in). You can also see exactly what the fund holds before you invest, and you don't need to be an accredited investor.

What SaaS metrics actually move the needle on your company valuation? In episode #304, Ben Murray shares his “Power 3” SaaS metrics — the three investor metrics that consistently signal scalable growth and increase SaaS valuations. While many articles list “top metrics” without context, these three have proven to be the most impactful in boardrooms, investor meetings, and due diligence. If you want to attract investors, strengthen your business model, and maximize your valuation, start by mastering these three metrics. What You'll Learn: Gross Profit Why high gross profit (80%+ for pure-play SaaS) is a foundation for growth. How revenue mix and margins by stream impact scalability and valuation. Gross Revenue Retention (GRR) Why GRR is the ultimate measure of product stickiness. How poor retention erodes efficiency and drags on working capital. ROSE (Return on SaaS Employees) Ben's proprietary alternative to “revenue per FTE.” Now updated to account for AI-driven roles that replace human labor. Why ROSE is more accurate for modern SaaS org efficiency. Why These Metrics Matter for Investors & Valuation Investors look for predictable, efficient growth — these metrics show exactly that. High gross profit and retention indicate a sustainable business model. ROSE reveals operational efficiency that supports long-term profitability. Together, these KPIs create a clear narrative for maximizing company valuation. Resources Mentioned: The Power 3 SaaS Metrics — Blog post + downloadable templates: https://www.thesaascfo.com/the-power-3-saas-metrics-that-predict-if-youll-scale-or-stall/ Quote from Ben: “If I could only choose three metrics to see if you're scaling the right way, it would be gross profit, gross revenue retention, and ROSE.”
Jason Blackwell doesn't see flashing red signals, but thinks it could be a good time to trim positions and reallocate within your portfolio with the market near highs. He explains how he uses valuation as a timing mechanism for investing, but says one certainly needs to look at additional market factors as well. On earnings, “margins continue to be really healthy.” Jason also discusses recent economic data and Fed speakers taking a turn towards dovishness.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

"Can I make money selling AI... or should I give it away to sell more of something else?" — Irwin Lazar, President and Principal Analyst, Metrigy In this special preview podcast for the upcoming Cloud Communications Alliance (CCA) Financial Summit, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sits down with Irwin Lazar, President and Principal Analyst at Metrigy, to discuss how AI is reshaping the economics of cloud communications—and how that impacts everything from vendor strategy to company valuations and M&A activity. As part of a diverse panel at the CCA Financial Summit, October 7–8 at the Willard Hotel in Washington, D.C., Lazar brings the voice of the buyer to the discussion. Drawing from Metrigy's extensive buyer-side research, he offers a data-driven look at how AI is being implemented, monetized, and evaluated across the communications and contact center landscape. Key Insights from the Podcast: The Monetization Dilemma: Vendors face tough choices—charge premiums for AI features or offer them for free to drive core product adoption. Strategic M&A: Recent deals, like NICE acquiring Cognigy, suggest buyers are favoring tech-focused acquisitions over ego-driven, market-share plays. Build vs. Buy: With AI coding tools becoming more accessible, enterprises face classic tradeoffs—develop internally using models like OpenAI and Anthropic, or accelerate capability through acquisitions. Risks on the Horizon: Lazar identifies power availability, data trust, and model disruption (e.g., DeepSeek's entry) as potential speed bumps for future AI adoption. Avoiding the Avaya-Nortel Trap: Today's acquirers appear more cautious, focused on adding capabilities—not just size. With AI influencing everything from product development to boardroom decisions, Lazar's perspective will be a highlight of the CCA Financial Summit's finance-focused programming. His message is clear: AI isn't just a tech trend—it's a business driver that's rapidly influencing enterprise strategy, investor sentiment, and go-to-market approaches.

Ben Emons talks all things A.I. He points to OpenAI's valuation bid that could propel it as the highest valued private company as reason enough to keep evolving tech top of mind.

What if HR could be measured with the same rigor as finance?

On this week's Glossy Podcast, international fashion reporter Zofia Zwieglinska joined editor-in-chief Jill Manoff to discuss three major stories shaping fashion this week. First, we discuss American Eagle Outfitters's “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans” campaign and the criticism around its wordplay on “genes,” drawing accusations of eugenics undertones while simultaneously driving the company's stock up by as much as 10%. At the same time, Vogue debuted an AI-generated Guess ad, created entirely by an external agency. And in the world of direct-to-consumer brands, Quince raised $200 million, doubling its valuation to $4.5 billion, prompting debate over whether a “dupe-first” model can evolve into long-term brand equity. Later in the episode (26:00), Manoff spoke with senior reporter Sara Spruch Feiner about Ty Haney's surprise return to Outdoor Voices, the DTC athleisure brand she founded in 2013.

Today, we look at the downdraft in the euro and European stocks yesterday and wonder if this is merely a kneejerk reaction to the EU-US trade deal or the start of something bigger. We also run down a few big movers in the US yesterday as the AI theme remains strong in the "shovel" space in AI (those who make the hardware driving AI data centers). Finally, we use Visa's valuation to demonstrate the rich valuation in US equities, look at levels for major Euro crosses and gold and silver, break down the US macro data up today and more.
