Podcasts about volatile

Way back in March 2020, I published two episodes about VUCA. VUCA V - U -C- A is an acronym describing a concept that was developed by the U. S. Army War College to describe the world after the end of the Cold War. A world that was more Volatile, V; Uncertain, U: Complex, C; and Ambiguous, A.Peter Schein talked with me in Episode 361, published two weeks ago, about his book, Humble Inquiry: The Gentle Art of Asking Instead of Telling, which was published earlier this year.In the book, Peter refers to VUCAA. That's VUCA with an additional A. The second A stands for Anxiety. Difficult enough to deal with volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity. Anxiety affects our ability to handle every one of those.What can we do about it all in the context of conflict?We can start by recognizing that we come from different perspectives.VUCAA may be our new norm.  And, we will benefit from recognizing that we won't all experience it or deal with it the same way. And we can exercise as much grace as we can muster. Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest? An idea or question about conflict management or conflict resolution?

In this episode of the No Sediment Wine Podcast, I sit down with Sietze Wijma, a wine educator specializing in flavor chemistry, to discuss wine faults - how common they are, how to spot them, and the fine line between a true fault and a harmless flaw. We discuss why professionals notice different things than consumers, what causes wines to go “off” in the vineyard versus the winery, and why faulty bottles still happen even when prevention is possible. Be sure to check out Sietze's website https://artoftasting.nl/ and follow him on Instagram @artoftasting!Thank you @67pallmall1 for providing their amazing premises at London for filming this video!You can also listen to the No Sediment Wine Podcast episodes on Spotify, Apple Podcast, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts and Castbox.Some of the WINE ACCESSORIES I use regularly:

How can higher education remain resilient in an age of uncertainty?Universities everywhere are under pressure, from political interference and funding cuts, to rapid technological change and shifting public expectations.In this episode of Our World, Connected, host Christine Wilson speaks with Michael Ignatieff, an award-winning author and historian, former leader of Canada's Liberal Party, and former President and Rector of Central European University (CEU). A keynote speaker at the British Council's Going Global 2025 conference, Michael reflects on the “storm clouds” gathering over higher education, drawing on his experience leading CEU through significant challenges, including political pressure that forced the institution to relocate. Together, they examine what resilience means for higher education today, the role of international partnerships and values-led leadership, the defence of academic freedom, and the human side of teaching and learning.We also hear live reflections from three delegates at last month's Going Global conference. Urvashi Prasad, a public policy and health specialist explores the role of empathy and evidence in shaping education, whilst Rawan Taha, a UN World Food Programme officer and UK Alumni SDG Ambassador shares her experience of adapting, upskilling and building resilience through international study. Finally, Caryn Nery, Director of Transnational Education (TNE) Partnerships at Victoria University, reflects on how TNE models proved robust during Covid and why diversified, student-centred partnerships matter now more than ever. Listen to Our World, Connected, brought to you by the British Council.

Asian equities fell after Wall Street shares declined, weighed down by concerns over stretched artificial intelligence valuations and signs of a cooling labor market. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index slipped 0.6%, led by declines in Japan, putting the gauge on track for its first drop in three weeks. US equity benchmarks dropped for the second time in three sessions with AI-related stocks such as Nvidia Corp. tumbling, while a closely watched volatility gauge spiked. We heard from Pruksa Iamthongthong, Aberdeen Investments Head of Equities Asia Pacific. She spoke to Bloomberg's Yvonne Man and David Ingles.Plus - Tesla Inc. shareholders approved a $1 trillion compensation package for Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk, the largest payout ever awarded to a corporate leader. The pay agreement clears a path for Musk, the world's richest person, to become the first-ever trillionaire and expand his stake in Tesla to 25% or more over the next decade. To achieve the full payout, he'll have to deliver on targets to significantly expand Tesla's market value, revive its flagging car business and get the fledgling robotaxi and Optimus robotics efforts off the ground.And in the US, volatility lashed Wall Street, with strong evidence of a cooling labor market pushing high-valuation tech stocks and crypto to big losses while bonds rallied on bets the Federal Reserve will cut rates.

Title: Episode 78 – Circular economy in a volatile world: Building resilience through circular systems Author(s): Worm, Loa Dalgaard Description: In this special episode of Forest for the Future, we dive into the intersection of circular economy, forest resources, and global resilience. Host Loa Worm, in her role as leader of the FSC Circularity Hub, convenes an expert panel to discuss how circular thinking can strengthen resource security in an era of geopolitical volatility. Guests include Luisa Santiago from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, Nina Grießhammer, Sebastian Mandiola of Arauco, and FSC's own Fabian Farkas—each bringing a unique perspective on how industries, NGOs, and certification systems must evolve to drive a regenerative, bio-based future. The discussion touches on everything from the 45% of emissions linked to production and consumption patterns to the urgent need to use wood more wisely and the pivotal role of FSC in enabling circular transformation. This episode is an honest, forward-looking conversation about how collaboration, innovation, and leadership can turn the circular economy from theory into action. Topics Covered • The key role of forestry and agriculture in building economic resilience • How companies like Arauco are turning circular principles into practice • The risks of overreliance on virgin wood—and how to rethink its use • Policy gaps and the need for better alignment on circularity incentives • The role of FSC's Circularity Hub as a driver of systems change

BT and Sal unleash a fiery Week 7 NFL Power Rankings debate, revealing a chaotic landscape with surprising teams cracking the top five. Sal's shocking list has the Chiefs at number five and the Packers rising to number four, while BT makes an impassioned case for the Patriots at number five and defends the Colts at number four, citing their massive $+78$ point differential—a number that stuns both hosts! The ultimate clash comes at number one: Sal elevates the Buccaneers to the top spot based on their consistent success, but BT goes all-in on a projection bet, naming the Denver Broncos as the best team in the NFL thanks to their elite defense, sparking a major disagreement on the AFC's wide-open nature. The hosts debate whether current results (reaction) or future expectations (projection) should rule the rankings.

Asia's recycling markets are shifting, but Korea is staying steady. In this Seoul special of Inside the Markets from GMS Podcasts, host Jamie Dalzell speaks with Gyungbae Gil, Head of the GMS Korea Office, to explore how Korean shipowners are navigating a volatile environment with patience, discipline, and a long-term view. Gyungbae explains how falling steel prices, fluctuating currencies, and uneven regional demand are reshaping the recycling landscape. With freight markets still firm, most Korean owners are keeping vessels trading and preparing for future compliance under the Hong Kong Convention. Key Discussion Points Market Pulse: steel prices under pressure with India around USD 390 per ton, Bangladesh USD 520, and Pakistan USD 610 per ton Currency Impact: a weakening Indian rupee near 89 per USD is keeping buyers cautious across South Asia Owner Strategy: Korean shipowners continue trading longer amid firm freight rates with limited tonnage recycled in recent months Compliance Focus: increased attention on HKC certified yards as ESG reputation drives recycling decisions Regional Outlook: India remains active but soft, Bangladesh cautious, and Pakistan strong on pricing but lacking HKC certification Forecast: a quiet end to 2025 expected with more recycling likely once freight softens and prices stabilize From Seoul to shipyards across the subcontinent, the message is consistent. Trade now, recycle responsibly later. Follow GMS Podcasts for market intelligence and regional updates from our country heads in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe.

Russell Rhoads discusses today's options action, saying Friday's sell-off was likely exacerbated by low liquidity and a lack of decision-makers on trading desks ahead of the long weekend. With the VIX still elevated, Rhoads notes that short-dated straddles are pricing in limited near-term volatility, but VIX futures are suggesting a potentially more volatile fourth quarter.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Matt Tuttle sees Friday's sell-off as a buying opportunity for investors. He urges everyone to focus on President Trump and the fields he's focused on to see what the next potential movers are, seen through government stakes in companies like Intel (INTC), MP Materials (MP) and Lithium Americas (LAC). Matt still sees upside in the A.I. trade as well, but warns investors may have to stomach volatility in the industry.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

When Damon Lee reflects on his first conversations with C.H. Robinson's CEO, he recalls how natural the alignment felt. “We spoke the same language. We were finishing each other's sentences,” Lee tells us. For a finance leader whose ambition had long been to step into the CFO chair, the clarity of vision he encountered at Robinson made the opportunity stand out.Lee emphasizes that Robinson's longevity mattered. “A company that survived and thrived for 120 years—that's special in its own right,” he tells us. The business, rooted in logistics services, relies on people as its core differentiator. “Our people really make the difference with our customers,” he adds, underscoring why the culture resonated with him.What sealed the decision, however, was the simplicity of the CEO's plan. “We're going to outgrow the market, we're going to expand our operating margins, we're going to do both,” Lee recounts. Complexity, in his view, often derails execution. A straightforward mandate with conviction behind it gave him confidence that transformation was possible.The CEO, Lee notes, wanted more than a traditional finance executive. He wanted someone who could “show up like a CEO,” bring lean discipline, and act as a true partner in reshaping the company. For Lee, this aligned perfectly with the operational mindset that had guided his career.After more than a year in the role, he reflects simply: “We're winning in the marketplace. We're winning in the eyes of investors. So certainly it was the right move for me, no doubt.”
