In this episode, in collaboration with the International Masters of Gaming Law (IMGL), Cristina Romero of Loyra Abogados, breaks down the complex, often-overlooked, world of fundraising in regulated iGaming markets.With nearly 15 years of experience advising on cross-border gaming finance and acquisitions, she explains why fresh capital is essential for driving innovation, market entry and long-term sustainability in an increasingly capital-intensive industry.From Spain and Sweden to Brazil and beyond, Cristina explores the investment landscape in both mature and emerging iGaming jurisdictions. She categorises the three dominant investor profiles, generalist private equity, gambling-savvy venture firms, and strategic industry players, unpacking what each seeks in a high-risk, high-reward environment.In the final segment, the conversation turns to the evolving relationship between traditional regulated operators and disruptive ‘adjacent' tech firms in Web3, blockchain and AI-powered marketing. Cristina explains how unregulated innovators are setting new benchmarks for speed and agility, often providing vital tools that solve operational pain points for legacy brands.To read more on the topic discussed in today's episode, click on the following link:- https://www.imgl.org/publications/imgl-magazine-volume-3-no-1/raising-capital-in-regulated-gambling-and-betting-markets/Host: Ted MenmuirGuest: Cristina RomeroProducer: Anaya McDonaldEditor: James RossiGaming Daily is also now on TikTok.

There's "tremendous pressure on the Fed to do nothing" with interest rates, says Jim Bianco. Catalysts of an improving economy and tariffs leaving less concerns than expected are two key arguments behind Bianco's reasoning. However, he says higher interest rates will add pressure against the stock market. Jim adds that the gargantuan rally in stocks can continue but will eventually face a valuation issue.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

"Momentum is in favor of the market to continue to go up," argues Adam Coons. He says we're back to where we started at the beginning of 2025, with valuations at elevated levels and a "very, very thin" margin of error that comes with it. Adam expects the FOMC not to cut interest rates in July and makes the case that the Fed doesn't need to cut anytime soon. On stocks, he sees financials doing well in the back half of the year and labels Alphabet (GOOGL) as an undervalued Mag 7 company.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

This week's blogpost - https://bahnsen.co/4nZl7Sv Cautiously Pessimistic – Navigating Investment Expectations In this episode of The Thought Somebody Podcast, host Trevor Cummings and guest Blaine Carver discuss Trevor's latest article titled 'Cautiously Pessimistic.' They explore the concept of cautious pessimism in finance, explaining how it contrasts with the common term 'cautiously optimistic' often used by financial pundits. Trevor and Blaine delve into the importance of setting reasonable investment expectations, emphasizing the significance of understanding the purpose of investment funds and developing grounded, historically-informed perspectives. They also caution against misplaced optimism and the psychological impacts of investment decisions, explaining the potential pitfalls of reacting to market volatility and irrational exuberance. Through various analogies and historical instances, they underscore the value of asking the right questions, such as the purpose and time horizon of investments, to ensure alignment with financial goals and to mitigate the emotional scars of market fluctuations. 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 00:19 Cautiously Pessimistic: An Article Overview 02:29 The Importance of Context in Financial Advice 06:16 Understanding Investment Expectations 07:39 The Role of Time Horizon in Investment Strategy 16:12 Reasonable Expectations for Bonds and Stocks 24:46 Understanding Premiums and Historical Correlations 26:16 The Impact of Valuations on Future Returns 28:09 The Concept of Market Bubbles 29:42 Setting Realistic Expectations 32:27 Lessons from Historical Market Trends 34:50 The Role of Emotions in Investing 42:02 The Importance of Groundedness in Investing 48:08 Concluding Thoughts and Listener Engagement Links mentioned in this episode: http://thoughtsonmoney.com http://thebahnsengroup.com

Recording date: 8th July 2025Olive Resource Capital's impressive 33% first-half return demonstrates the potential for focused mining investment strategies. The fund's success with three key holdings—Omai Gold Mines, Troilus Gold, and Sailfish Royalties—each delivering over 100% returns, validates the selective positioning approach within the mining sector. Troilus Gold's appreciation from the $30-39 range to $60-70 exemplifies the re-rating potential when mining companies execute development plans or benefit from improved market conditions.Recent transactions, particularly Royal Gold's acquisition of Sandstorm Gold and Horizon Copper, provide concrete valuation frameworks that reveal substantial upside in undervalued royalty companies. The Royal Gold-Sandstorm transaction establishes a concrete methodology for valuing royalty companies at approximately 88% of attributable gold ounces at current spot prices. This approach, focusing on deliverable resources with reasonable certainty, provides more reliable metrics than complex net present value calculations. Historical precedent supports this framework, with similar transactions ranging from 60% to 100% of spot gold value.The 88% valuation metric to Sailfish Royalties reveals approximately 150% upside potential. Based on estimated deliverable resources from San Albino and Spring Valley projects, the company's fair value approaches $350 million, while currently trading at just under $150 million enterprise value. The presence of tier-one development assets may command premium valuations, as royalty companies particularly value growth opportunities on the path to production.Understanding why more M&A doesn't occur reveals both challenges and opportunities. The complex process involves multiple failure points: unrealistic valuations, excessive management compensation demands, structural complexity, and hidden liabilities discovered during due diligence. These challenges protect against hostile takeovers but also create opportunities for investors who can identify logical consolidation candidates before market recognition.The consolidation imperative creates specific investment opportunities: targeting royalty companies with tier-one development assets trading below M&A comparables, identifying management teams with proven M&A experience, and focusing on logical consolidation candidates in established mining districts. Failed transactions often create attractive re-entry opportunities, as companies trade down despite unchanged fundamentals.The sector's fragmentation necessitates fewer, stronger companies rather than the current proliferation of small, poorly capitalized entities. Companies with experienced management teams capable of executing transactions may command premium valuations, while potential targets trading below fair value based on M&A comparables represent attractive opportunities.The mathematical framework demonstrated by recent royalty M&A transactions provides investors with concrete tools for identifying undervalued assets and understanding catalysts that drive substantial returns. While M&A complexity creates execution risk, it also ensures that successful transactions often command significant premiums, benefiting investors who understand these dynamics and position appropriately.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Sam Vadas and Diane King Hall kickstart Thursday's trading day with a recap of the latest tariff actions taken by the Trump administration. With tariff hikes revealed via Truth Social letters, 21 countries have now been targeted with 20%-40% rates and Sam posits the thought: Could hikes on countries like Brazil push it closer to China for trade?

H.C. Wainwright gave a double downgrade to Coinbase (COIN) over its ballooning valuation from a staggering run higher. However, as Sam Vadas notes, the firm sees Coinbase being a "best in breed" for crypto exchanges. She talks about how improved regulation and greater adoption of crypto is bullish for Coinbase long-term despite today's downgrade. Joe Tigay turns to an example options trade for the stock.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I look at the ongoing relevance and success of so-called "legacy" organizations in the Cloud Wars Top 10.Highlights00:16 — Now interesting to see across the 10 companies in the Cloud Wars Top 10, we've got four that would fall under the sort of goofy legacy title. They've been around about half a century or more. And then we've got six companies that we referred to as cloud native. Interesting to see that right now the Cloud and AI revolution is fully underway.00:49 — Because if you take the valuations of those four companies, Microsoft plus Oracle plus SAP plus IBM, it comes to a little over $5 trillion, which is almost exactly the same as the combined valuations of the six cloud native companies. My point is not just to play some goofy arithmetic game, but rather to say that there is a lesson here about the power of incumbency, right? 01:20 — If you've been in a market for a certain amount of time, something new comes along. You can try to ignore the new thing and say "No, no, we'll just power through this on our own." Or you can say, "Let me take the capabilities I currently have as an incumbent ... and then blend that in with his cool new stuff here." 02:11 — I mentioned the four legacy, so-called legacy tech vendors, Microsoft is say 52, no 50 years old this year, $3.71 trillion market cap. Oracle is about 47-years-old this year, $667 billion, SAP is 53-years-old, $370 billion, and IBM 114-years-young, and combined those four add up to $5.02 trillion. 03:14 — I'm not taking away anything from either side, but this is a remarkable example of how it's not just the bright shiny objects that are going to determine who's going to win or lose or start up with the cool new stuff. 04:10 — It also shows us that the mindset of companies is so important these days. We can't say, "Well, I can't make it. I am caught in the old world." But instead, "How do I take the new things that are happening, weave that into what I h Visit Cloud Wars for more.

Increased ridesharing using robotaxis could bring down traffic levels, says Ivan Feinseth. He believes a car is an under-used asset by sitting around all day, and says an autonomous vehicle could provide more value for consumers by picking up packages and passengers. Ivan says it is the catalyst behind future valuations of both Uber (UBER) and Tesla (TSLA). In self-driving technology space, he likes Mobileye (MBLY) as another weigh to play the autonomous tech trend.

In this in-depth interview with Maggie Lake, chockfull of investing advice, Peter Boockvar, CIO of Bleakley Financial and Editor of the popular Substack the “Boockvar Report” offers crucial insights into the markets and the U.S. economy. With significant concerns over the impact of tariffs and a belief that valuations haven't priced in the risk… he believes with Q1 and Q2 2025 GDP growth averaging a mere 1%, we're "knocking on the doors of a recession,” Peter highlights compelling opportunities in international equities and commodities including specifics on oil, precious metals and real estate. He also says the years of “set it and forget” it are passed and active portfolio management is the future as traditional S&P 500 returns are unlikely to be repeatable in the coming decade.

What's your intellectual property truly worth when it's on the line? Not what you hope or what you feel, but what courts, investors, and negotiators will actually pay. This episode of Intangiblia dives deep into the high-stakes world of IP valuation, where patents, trademarks, and copyrights transform from abstract legal protections into concrete dollar amounts.We journey through landmark global IP disputes that have defined how creative assets are valued in courtrooms from California to Colombia. The Samsung v. Apple design patent battle set precedent for how much of a product's profit can be attributed to its appearance. Epic Systems v. Tata Consultancy Services revealed the billion-dollar worth of trade secrets when they cross into competitors' hands. Meanwhile, cases like Liffers in Spain demonstrate that even moral rights, the right to be credited for your work, carry financial value that courts will recognize and enforce.The podcast unpacks three essential valuation methodologies that every creator should understand: cost-based (what it took to create), market-based (what others pay for similar assets), and income-based (what future earnings it will generate). Through fascinating case studies across industries, from pharmaceuticals to streaming services, sneakers to smartphones, we see how these approaches play out in real disputes with massive financial implications.Beyond methodology, we explore how valuation strategies differ across borders, with emerging economies like India pushing back against one-size-fits-all licensing rates, and Mexico's courts mandating that IP damages reflect genuine commercial impact. The digital transformation adds another layer of complexity, as shown in Disney v. Redbox, where even access codes carried enforceable intellectual property value.Whether you're protecting your creative work, licensing your technology, or facing infringement, this episode delivers a crucial message: in intellectual property, real power lies not just in registration but in pricing. Because in the world of IP, value isn't what you feel, it's what you can prove.Send us a text

Episode 3200: Vitaliy Katsenelson challenges the simplistic notion that value investing is about buying only the cheapest stocks. Drawing on insights from Ben Graham, Charlie Munger, and Warren Buffett, he reveals that true value lies not just in low prices but in the blend of quality, growth, and sound judgment proving that a Motel 6 mindset won't build a Berkshire Hathaway-sized portfolio. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://contrarianedge.com/values-value-investing/ Quotes to ponder: "I thought value investors were supposed to like cheap stuff." "A $36-a-night room at Motel 6 by the airport, overrun by cockroaches and bedbugs and with questionable plumbing, may be statistically cheap, but it's not a bargain." "Charlie is not a ‘sidekick'! Charlie changed Buffett's investment philosophy. Sidekicks don't do that."
