There are some earnings surprises as we focus on a pivotal week for the markets, highlighted by major earnings reports, the Federal Reserve's latest meeting, and growing signs of market divergence beneath the surface. Microsoft and Amazon delivered strong results driven by cloud and AI-related growth, while Apple and Meta faced significant selloffs. We also examine how the Nasdaq has broken below an important trading range, making the coming weeks critical for determining whether technology stocks can resume leadership or face a deeper correction. We talk the rising long-term interest rates, signs of stagflation, weakening economic growth, elevated inflation, shrinking consumer savings, and growing concerns about market concentration as a handful of mega-cap stocks continue to mask weakness across the broader market. Investors should focus on strong fundamentals and cash-generating businesses rather than chasing popular stocks with weak growth prospects. Today we discuss...  The market-moving impact of a busy week featuring Federal Reserve decisions, major earnings reports, and heightened market volatility. How Microsoft and Amazon posted strong earnings while Apple and Meta saw sharp post-earnings declines, highlighting increasing investor selectivity. Why AI enthusiasm alone is no longer enough and why companies are being rewarded based on execution and profitability. The collapse of a highly leveraged AI-focused hedge fund and what it reveals about leverage and institutional trading on Wall Street. How rising long-term Treasury yields and a more hawkish Federal Reserve are creating additional pressure on stocks and corporate borrowing. Growing signs of stagflation as economic growth slows while inflation remains stubbornly elevated. Weakening consumer finances, including falling savings rates and the impact of persistent inflation on household budgets. How a small number of mega-cap technology stocks continue to mask weakness across the broader stock market. Increasing risks in global markets, including currency volatility, Japan's interest rate outlook, and weakness in South Korea's market. The outlook for gold, Bitcoin, bonds, and other asset classes as investors navigate an increasingly uncertain environment. Why investors should remain patient, focus on strong cash-generating businesses, and avoid chasing expensive stocks without solid underlying growth.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the full show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/earnings-surprises-839

Chris Perkins explains why he joined Franklin Templeton to lead its digital asset business, arguing that crypto has entered a phase where fundamentals, regulation, and institutional capital matter more than hype.

My guest today is Gavin Baker, founding partner and CIO of Atreides Management. This is our seventh conversation, and just two months after Gavin's last appearance. It's about the gap between what the market is doing and what companies are seeing. It's been a tough month or so for public AI names, but there's no sign of a slowdown on the ground in Silicon Valley. We discuss the latest moves, contracted vs. spot GPU prices, the game theory of memory supply agreements, and why Claude has become the Walter Cronkite of the stock market. We close on SpaceX, orbital compute, and what Gavin sees as the single biggest risk to all of it. Please enjoy this conversation, from the famous table at Benchmark, with my friend Gavin Baker.

Wall Street's transfer agents want issuers, not outside platforms, to control tokenized stock. Securitize's CEO says the alternative invites insider trading. ======================================================== Thank you to our sponsor! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cape⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: Your biggest crypto vulnerability isn't your wallet, it's your phone number.

Get 33% off your first six months at cape.co/unchained (use code: UNCHAINED). ======================================================== Securitize took itself public twice this year: once through a direct listing, and once by tokenizing more than $265 million of its own stock via a SPAC with Cantor Equity Partners, testing whether Wall Street lets equities trade onchain. Carlos Domingo, founder and CEO of Securitize, joins Laura Shin to argue that much of crypto's tokenized stock boom is unauthorized, offshore paper exposing investors and issuers to real legal risk, and to make the case that transfer agents, not outside platforms, should control what gets tokenized. They cover Rule 611, the SEC rule locking onchain and offchain share prices together, the Securities Transfer Association's push for issuer authorization, and a Netflix stock split that left an unauthorized derivative trading five times off. Domingo also lays out Securitize's NYSE partnership, launching tokenized trading in the fourth quarter. The SEC is now weighing whether to unwind the rule that keeps those prices identical, with real stakes for how equities trade next.

In Episode 347, Chris goes solo and pulls apart one of the wildest Wall Street stories of the year: the near-collapse of Situational Awareness, the AI-focused hedge fund launched by 25-year-old prodigy Leopold Aschenbrenner. What began as a multibillion-dollar bet on the future of artificial intelligence quickly became a masterclass in concentration risk, leverage and what happens when Silicon Valley confidence runs headfirst into experienced Wall Street operators. From FTX and OpenAI to a brutal margin call, a massive portfolio sale to Ken Griffin's Citadel and a suspiciously well-timed rebound in the very stocks that had just been crushed, Chris walks through the timeline, separates the facts from the theories and asks the question nobody wants to answer: was this simply reckless risk management—or did one of the smartest young minds in AI get completely outplayed?

In Episode 160 of the MAX Afterburner Podcast, former Navy TOPGUN fighter pilot, Wall Street executive, and No Fallen Heroes Foundation Founder Matthew "Whiz" Buckley delivers a powerful update on two worlds that are rapidly converging: the evolution of psychedelic medicine and the realities of modern combat.Buckley begins with a deeply personal reflection on his son's demanding service in the United States Air Force, honoring the men and women who care for wounded warriors and support the families of America's fallen heroes.He then explores the unprecedented momentum in the psychedelic space, including Big Pharma's entrance into the field, groundbreaking industry developments, and what these advances could mean for millions suffering from trauma. While celebrating the progress, Buckley also offers candid warnings about the challenges and risks that accompany rapid commercialization.The episode then shifts to the escalating conflict in the Middle East, where hundreds of U.S. service members have already been injured, many with traumatic brain injuries and other life-altering wounds. Buckley explains why organizations like the No Fallen Heroes Foundation are preparing now to help these heroes heal when they return home and why emerging psychedelic therapies may offer one of the most promising frontiers for treating TBI and the invisible wounds of war.Equal parts market intelligence, national security briefing, and message of hope, Episode 160 challenges listeners to think differently about the future of warrior care, mental health, and America's responsibility to those who serve.This is an episode every veteran, first responder, policymaker, healthcare professional, investor, and patriot should hear.

Today, we're bringing you an episode from another podcast in the FT stable: The Story of Money.Jesse Livermore was a legendary trader who made and lost several fortunes in the early 20th century, most famously by shorting the Wall Street crash of 1929. His early life was immortalised in the roman à clef Reminiscences of a Stock Operator by Edwin Lefèvre, and his trading insights and stunning successes continue to inspire professional traders and would-be traders to this day. But his life also contains cautionary tales about the ease with which success can morph into failure, and what happens when the buzz of the markets is no longer enough. Host Robin Wigglesworth and the FT's US financial commentator Robert Armstrong explore the extraordinary life of the greatest day trader in history.Watch, listen and subscribe to The Story of Money for free on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, at ft.com/tsom or wherever you get your podcasts.Content note: This episode includes discussion of suicide and mental health.Further reading:Reminiscences of a Stock Operator (1923), Edwin Lefèvre1929: Inside the Greatest Crash in Wall Street History and How It Shattered a Nation (2025), Andrew Ross Sorkin Credits: Getty Images, The New York Times To enjoy future episodes, be sure to subscribe to The Story of Money wherever you get your podcasts, also on the show's dedicated YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@FTTheStoryOfMoney Learn more at www.ft.com/tsom or get in touch at thestoryofmoney@ft.com.Hosts: Gillian Tett and Robin WigglesworthProducer: Lulu SmythSenior Producer: Michela Tindera Executive Producer: Manuela SaragosaOriginal music and sound design: Breen TurnerBroadcast engineers: Bianca Wakeman and Petros GiuompasisPodcast Development: Laura ClarkeFT Global Head of Audio: Flo Phillips Hosted on Acast.

Novo Nordisk has spent years warning patients, regulators, lawmakers, and courts about the risks of synthetic semaglutide. Now, as patents begin to expire and China's pharmaceutical industry becomes increasingly important, Novo may be staring at a very uncomfortable question: what happens if synthetic semaglutide suddenly makes sense when Novo is the one making it?In this week's episode of The Weekly Dose, I dig into Novo's long-running recombinant-versus-synthetic semaglutide argument, the lawsuits and FDA petitions built around it, and a clip from more than 16 months ago showing that we were covering this exact issue long before it became part of the mainstream conversation. Novo Warned Us About Synthetic Semaglutide_ Now This_.txtWe also break down Pfizer's decision to kill two clinical-stage obesity drugs, including an oral GLP-1 acquired through its $10 billion Metsera deal, the strange science behind GIP receptor antagonism, and why Pfizer's remaining obesity pipeline still deserves attention. Plus, Wall Street is looking at Eli Lilly's obesity-fueled rally and asking just how big this market can get.In this episode:00:00 Novo's synthetic semaglutide problem02:00 VoaFit sponsor message03:30 The 16-month-old On The Pen receipt05:00 Recombinant vs. synthetic semaglutide07:00 Novo's FDA, legal, and political strategy09:00 Pfizer kills two obesity drugs11:00 What happened to Metsera's oral pipeline?13:00 The GIP agonist vs. antagonist paradox15:00 Why China matters to Pfizer and Novo17:00 Could Novo eventually make synthetic semaglutide?18:30 What comes next for Lilly, Novo, and PfizerThe big question: If Novo Nordisk eventually launches its own synthetically manufactured semaglutide, does that change how you view the arguments it has made against compounded semaglutide over the last several years?Comment below.

President Trump said the U.S. brokered a deal for Hamas to disarm and for Israel to leave Gaza, but neither side has moved on it yet. The Washington Post’s Michael Birnbaum explains why. Wall Street firms can now pay up to $100,000 a month for early access to Trump’s Truth Social posts. The Wall Street Journal’s Caitlin Ostroff breaks down the edge this new service gives investors — and the insider-trading concerns it’s raising. Tens of thousands of migrants rushed into the Spanish territory of Ceuta in North Africa last week, only to be turned away almost immediately. Reuters’s Victoria Waldersee unpacks the factors that contributed to the surge. Plus, how a bitter family feud between two Ohio lawmakers over abuse allegations is threatening an otherwise likely safe GOP seat, why FIFA's president is facing a mutiny, and women’s professional baseball players have a new league of their own.

Anika sat down with Andrew Bolton, CEO and co-founder of Tech Rescue, to explore the massive cultural and corporate shift currently prioritizing artificial intelligence over human connection—and why it's a losing bet. Starting from a moment of intense frustration while trying to help his grandmother with technology, Andrew bootstrapped a 24/7, human-only tech support company that has defied the "chatbot era" of Silicon Valley. Andrew's journey offers a masterclass in recognizing the power of empathy in business, building culture in a service company, and why trusting the basics of customer care is the ultimate growth hack.   In This Episode   The origins of Tech Rescue: Why a simple email forward sparked a fast-growing business How the tech industry has abandoned the 14% of Americans who struggle with modern devices The psychological and physiological benefits of talking to a human over a robot Why implementing a strict "no AI, no chatbots" policy became their greatest competitive advantage Bootstrapping the company with his mother as CFO after getting rejected by traditional VCs The connection between lowering a caller's cortisol levels and boosting corporate retention rates Why the modern education system's failures present a massive threat to the U.S. workforce How Tech Rescue grew from answering calls at 2 AM to a team of 78 employees in three years The danger of monopolies and the slow creep of corporate mediocrity Why real success isn't just about billions—it's about protecting creativity, connection, and culture   Timestamps   00:00 Introduction: Solving a human problem in an AI world 01:34 The origin story: Watching an 80-year-old struggle to forward an email 04:47 How the relentless pace of tech has left 14% of the population behind 09:21 The death of customer service: Why optimization actually means abandonment 11:24 The ultimate value proposition: Choosing humans over chatbots 16:01 Walking away from Wall Street to build a business with his mom 18:51 The fundamental truth: How you treat your customers is how they treat your wallet 22:15 Building a 24/7 call center powered by psychology majors, not IT techs 24:01 The science of empathy: Lowering cortisol to reduce call times and save money 26:27 Smacking the "Palo Alto 5-year plan" and proving empathy is profitable 33:13 Why hiring for emotional intelligence is harder—and more important—than hiring for tech skills 36:31 A warning about the U.S. education system and the future of the workforce 43:25 Why becoming a billionaire in a mediocre world means absolutely nothing 48:44 Conclusion: The core mission of connecting people   Key Insights & Takeaways   Insight 1: "Optimization" Often Just Means Abandonment   For the last decade, companies have used terms like "optimization" or "streamlining" to justify firing their HR, sales, and customer service departments, replacing them with endless phone trees and chatbots. This has created a massive void in the market where customers are desperate to speak with a real human—a void that human-centric businesses can easily and profitably fill.   Insight 2: Empathy is a Quantifiable Metric   Tech Rescue hires psychology and sociology majors rather than IT professionals because teaching tech is easier than teaching empathy. According to medical studies, simply addressing a caller by their name can lower cortisol and adrenaline levels by 13%. In a call center environment, a calmer customer translates directly to a conversation that ends seven minutes sooner, vastly reducing operational costs and boosting retention.   Insight 3: The "No Chatbot" Guarantee is a Growth Strategy   While VCs and marketing agencies constantly pressure companies to adopt AI to save money, Tech Rescue found that their greatest selling point is their strict refusal to use it. In a world where consumers are fatigued by automated voices and generic AI outputs, guaranteeing a human interaction builds a level of brand trust and loyalty that algorithms cannot replicate.   Insight 4: Generational Tech Gaps Require Psychological Safety   Older generations aren't just confused by rapidly changing tech (like Meta rearranging its settings menus multiple times a year); they are often embarrassed to ask for help. Tech Rescue provides a psychologically safe space for users to ask questions—whether it's about online banking or setting up a dating profile on Bumble—without feeling rushed or condescended to.   Insight 5: You Can Make Money by Doing Good in the World   Andrew pushes back against the modern corporate mandate of "alpha at all costs," which he argues leads to monotonous, poor-quality products and a lack of innovation. His core philosophy—often repeated as "Business 101"—is that if you solve a genuine problem and treat people with respect, the financial success will naturally follow. Monopolies prevent competition, but incredible customer service shatters monopolies.   Resources & Links Mentioned Tech Rescue   About Andrew Bolton   Andrew Bolton is the CEO and co-founder of Tech Rescue, a 24/7 human-powered tech support company. A Harvard-trained strategist with Wall Street roots, Andrew walked away from traditional corporate America to build a business centered entirely around empathy, trust, and connection. He co-founded the company alongside his mother after witnessing firsthand how the modern tech industry disregards the elderly and the less tech-savvy. Today, he manages a growing team of 78 employees out of a call center in Colorado, proving that human connection is the ultimate competitive advantage.   Connect with Andrew Bolton Website: https://techrescue.io/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

From a small Brazilian butcher's shop to the world's largest meat empire, Wesley and Joesley Batista built a global powerhouse feeding millions every day. Journalist Zing Tsjeng and BBC business editor Simon Jack trace the Batista brothers' rise from teenage entrepreneurs learning the family trade to billionaires dominating the global food supply. But behind their staggering growth lies another story - a sprawling corruption scandal involving bribery, insider trading allegations, and secret recordings that rocked Brazil's political establishment. Despite jail time, massive fines, and global scrutiny, the Batista brothers staged an extraordinary comeback, rebuilding their business and joining the billionaire ranks. Good Bad Billionaire is the podcast that explores the lives of the super-rich and famous, tracking their wealth, philanthropy, business ethics, and success. There are leaders who made their money in Silicon Valley, on Wall Street and in high street fashion. From iconic celebrities and CEOs to titans of technology, the podcast unravels tales of fortune, power, economics, ambition and moral responsibility. Simon and Zing put their subjects to the test with a playful, totally unscientific scorecard — then hand the verdict over to you: are they good, bad, or simply billionaires?

Tune in for a conversation that's as darkly clever as Bateman's own diary, and catch every pointed observation and sly joke that keeps the horror just as entertaining as the satire.

Markets are entering a pivotal week as investors brace for another wave of corporate earnings and a closely watched US jobs report that could shape expectations for Federal Reserve policy. Michelle Martin examines why Bank of America is bullish on Spotify and Ralph Lauren ahead of earnings, the diverging fortunes of Apple and Amazon, and what results from Palantir, AMD, Disney, Uber and Airbnb could reveal about AI, consumer spending and travel demand. She also looks at Berkshire Hathaway's steady rise, Nio's strong vehicle deliveries, the Straits Times Index's impressive July performance, the debate over Great Eastern's rally, and why the latest Spider-Man blockbuster is proving that the right franchise can still deliver box office magic.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Die Wall Street geht uneinheitlich in den Tag. Wir sehen starke Gewinne im Dow Jones, und leichte Gewinnmitnahmen beim Nasdaq. Rückenwind liefern die Entspannung im Nahen Osten, deutlich fallende Ölpreise und niedrigere Renditen der US-Staatsanleihen, nachdem Donald Trump einen angekündigten Militärschlag gegen Iran vorerst gestoppt und neue Verhandlungen in Aussicht gestellt hat. Marriott überzeugt mit soliden Zahlen und einem angehobenen Jahresausblick, mit der Aktie aber dennoch leicht unter Druck. Im Technologiesektor bleibt KI das dominierende Thema: OpenAI meldet mehr als eine Milliarde aktive Nutzer, Alibaba verschärft mit Qwen3.8 Max den Wettbewerb, zugleich wächst die Sorge über die Finanzierung des Booms, da die Hyperscaler Investitionen von fast 2,4 Billionen US Dollar zugesagt haben und der freie Cashflow unter Druck gerät. Analystenseitig erhalten Microsoft, Applied Materials, UPS und Delta Rückenwind, während NXP Semiconductors und eBay abgestuft werden. Im Fokus stehen heute der ISM-Einkaufsmanagerindex sowie nach Börsenschluss die Zahlen von Palantir, ON Semiconductor und Snap.

This one needs to be heard, not summarized.

Fox. Summary of the Interview In this episode of Money Making Conversations Masterclass, Rushion McDonald interviews Ashley M. Fox—former Wall Street analyst, Howard University alum, financial educator, and founder/CEO of Emplify, a fintech platform focused on making wealth‑building accessible to everyday people. Ashley shares her journey from working with ultra‑high‑net‑worth clients on Wall Street to becoming an entrepreneur determined to bring financial education and empowerment to communities traditionally excluded from wealth conversations. She discusses the creation of Amplify, her financial fall and recovery, her work in schools and prison systems, and how digital content has allowed her to scale her mission globally. The discussion emphasizes mindset, self‑belief, access, and a practical path to wealth, even starting with as little as $20. Purpose of the Interview The interview aims to: 1. Inspire financial empowerment Ashley explains how anyone—regardless of background or starting point—can begin building wealth and shift generational outcomes. 2. Demystify investing and wealth-building She breaks down how simple investing can be, the power of small consistent contributions, and how wealth isn’t limited to entrepreneurs or high earners. 3. Highlight her fintech platform Emplify She shares how Amplify democratizes financial education through online tools, community, and accessible investing classes. 4. Encourage a mindset shift Ashley stresses the importance of eliminating fear, building confidence, and using logic instead of emotion when making financial decisions. Key Takeaways 1. Wealth Begins with Belief and Mindset Ashley learned on Wall Street that the biggest difference between wealthy and non-wealthy people is not education—it's self-belief. Many people don’t believe wealth is possible for them because they've never seen it. 2. You Don’t Need a Lot of Money to Start Investing She urges people to start with $20, even buying fractional shares. It’s consistency—not starting amount—that builds wealth. 3. You Can Invest in Others’ Ideas—Not Just Your Own Building wealth doesn’t require launching a business. Buying stock is one of the easiest ways to participate in wealth creation. 4. Ashley’s Own Journey Included Failure After leaving Wall Street, she was evicted, slept on her parents’ couch for two years, and maxed out credit cards. Her purpose kept her going. 5. Financial Education Should Start Early She developed financial education programs for schools, prison systems, and everyday families because adults often learn too late. 6. Emplify Scales Wealth Education Her platform offers 300+ hours of videos and tools, helping members open 3,000+ investment accounts and invest $7.4M collectively. 7. Social Media Is Her Biggest Access Point Ashley reaches millions by being authentic, relatable, and consistent—meeting people where they are. 8. You Must Pay Yourself First Most people pay bills, companies, and creditors before investing in themselves. She emphasizes reversing that pattern. 9. Logic Over Emotion Wealth requires logical decision‑making, especially in the market. Emotional reactions undermine long-term financial growth. Notable Quotes (Taken From the Transcript) On Wealth Mindset “When you think and know and believe you have the power to create wealth and you deserve wealth, you move a different way.” “There is no president that can build the wealth that you can create for your family.” On Starting Small “You don't have to have a lot of money to start. You just have to have the will to begin.” “A whole lot of $20 can get you to a million—as long as you don’t stop.” On Investing “Consider the companies you give your money to and own them, because they are a lot cheaper than you think.” “If I’m helping you build a billion‑dollar business by using your products, I deserve a piece of the pie.” On Self-Reliance “You pay everybody… the bartender, the mortgage company—and you’re the one without money. Who’s going to worry about you?” On Purpose and Identity “My story never changed. The mission was always dedicated to the people I didn’t see coming into that building on Wall Street.” “Emplify is the movement. It just has my DNA.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if bonds aren't dead at all—and we've just spent the last decade misunderstanding what job they were hired to do? Bill welcomes back Frank Vasquez, the hotdog-named engineer-lawyer-DIY investor behind Risk Parity Radio, for part one of a lively fixed-income deep dive. Starting with the basics, Frank explains what a bond actually is, why owning one makes you the lender rather than the shareholder, and how bonds can provide income, stability, or diversification depending on the type and duration. They work through the very real risks hiding behind the phrase "safe investment." Along the way, they visit the Witch of Wall Street, Frank's crystal balls, and the illusion that individual bonds never lose value just because nobody checks the price every day.  This is Part 1 of a 2-part Episode. Be sure to catch Part 2 next week (August 9th). This episode covers What bonds are and how they differ fundamentally from stocks The three main roles bonds can play: income, stability, and diversification The differences between Treasuries, corporate bonds, municipal bonds, and TIPS Why higher yields usually come with higher credit or default risk Maturity, par value, duration, yield to maturity, and the yield curve Why individual bonds fluctuate in value even when investors do not see the daily price How interest-rate changes affect short-, intermediate-, and long-duration bonds The major risks of bond investing, including inflation, liquidity, credit, and call risk Why diversification depends on correlation, not simply owning investments with different names What 2022 taught investors about stocks, bonds, inflation, and unusual market environments   === SUPPORT  THE  SHOW ===

On today's show, we're reviewing a new book by Andrew Ross Sorkin called 1929: Inside the Greatest Crash in Wall Street History, and How It Shattered a Nation.Sorkin is best known for Too Big to Fail, his account of the 2008 financial crisis. In this book, he goes back nearly eighty years earlier to examine the most famous market collapse in American history.Most people know the basic outline. The stock market rose dramatically during the Roaring Twenties. Speculation took hold. The market crashed in October of 1929, and the Great Depression followed.But knowing the outline is not the same as understanding what happened.Sorkin's strength is narrative. He takes a complicated financial event and tells it through the people who experienced it. Bankers, traders, politicians, regulators, journalists, and ordinary investors appear not as distant historical figures, but as human beings operating under pressure.The book's central lesson is not simply that markets can fall. Everyone already knows that.The deeper lesson is that intelligent, experienced people can see warning signs and still fail to act.Why?Because the incentives of the moment are often stronger than the consequences of the future.-------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)
