While COP30 gets underway in Brazil - Donald Trump is ripping up climate policy, blasting his allies for falling for what he calls the ‘world's greatest con job' and trying to get big business to follow his lead - and yet in New York, Zohran Mamdani - a left-wing populist unafraid to tout a green agenda - has just won the mayoral race and in the UK, the Green Party has surged under Zack Polanski.So is the direction of travel really a climate rollback - or is a new left preparing to claim power and reclaim the climate argument? With me, from the COP in Belém, is our Chief Correspondent Alex Thomson - and in London, the financial journalist and author Andrew Ross Sorkin, whose new book 1929 investigates the Wall Street crash.

Vivian Tu walked away from Wall Street to teach a different kind of wealth building, one that starts with conversations nobody wants to have. She exposes the uncomfortable truth about proximity and money: the rich stay rich partly because they grew up watching how wealth actually works, learning the unspoken rules at dinner tables and country clubs while everyone else was left guessing. Her approach to financial success isn't about grinding harder or cutting out coffee, it's about understanding that being likable often trumps being the smartest person in the room, that your relationships with money will make or break your relationships with people, and that real wealth protection starts with conversations most couples avoid until it's too late. You'll walk away knowing exactly how to position yourself as irreplaceable at work, why women especially need their own money regardless of who they marry, and how a prenup is actually an act of love rather than a sign of distrust.Buy Vivian's book Rich AF: The Winning Money Mindset That Will Change Your LifePre order Well Endowed: The Secrets to Strategic Spending, Building a Financial Foundation for You and Your Family, and Creating Lasting Generational WealthListen to Vivian's podcast Networth and Chill with Your Rich BFFIn this episode you will:Discover why proximity to wealth matters more than talent alone and how people who grew up rich have soft skills that open doors you didn't even know existedTransform your earning potential by understanding that the most paid person isn't the smartest but the one everyone actually likes and wants to work withMaster the art of asking for raises by maintaining a brag book and strategically reminding your boss you're money motivated for six months before everyone else asks in DecemberUncover why talking about money with your partner isn't optional but essential, since money and intimacy are the top two reasons relationships failLearn the STRIP method for financial health: building emergency savings first, attacking high interest debt strategically, investing in retirement with tax advantages, actually buying assets with that retirement money, and planning your specific version of happily ever afterFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1846For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Lewis Howes [SOLO] – greatness.lnk.to/1798SCCodie Sanchez  – greatness.lnk.to/1701SCLeila Hormozi – greatness.lnk.to/1735SC Get more from Lewis!

Publicly-listed Oklo sits at the intersection of two hot areas for Wall Street: artificial intelligence and energy companies. This year alone, Oklo's share price has jumped more than 400 per cent. But the business hasn't generated any revenue. It hasn't built a nuclear reactor, and it hasn't secured any binding contracts with customers. The FT's US energy editor Jamie Smyth explains the enthusiasm for Oklo, its links to the Trump administration and whether it can live up to the hype.Clips from New York Stock Exchange, The White House, a16z- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - For further reading:Inside Oklo: the $20bn nuclear start-up without any revenueUS and investors gambling on unproven nuclear technology, warn expertsDonald Trump's assault on US nuclear watchdog raises safety concerns- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Attend the FT Global Banking Summit, 2-4 December in London: Enter SAVE20 for a 20% discount, register here.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Follow Jamie Smyth on X (@JamieSmythF), or on Bluesky (@jamiesmythft.bsky.social).

Wall Street limps into a new day of trading after its worst single session in nearly a month, driven by growing fears of an AI bubble and a massive wealth wipeout in chip stocks. Plus, investors are zeroing in on Election Day and what's shaping up to be a potential Democratic sweep, as President Trump faces a critical tariff test in the Supreme Court. And later, lawmakers in Congress return to the negotiating table in what has now become the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of UNSCRIPTED, Sarah Nicastro sits down with Erin Coupe, former Wall Street executive turned leadership expert, to explore why modern leadership demands greater self-reflection and how to achieve it without burning out. Erin shares powerful insights on transforming routines into meaningful rituals, building authentic leadership practices, and creating sustainable success without sacrificing personal wellbeing. Whether you're a high-achieving executive feeling stretched thin or a leader seeking to cultivate a more conscious approach to success, this conversation offers practical wisdom on balancing achievement with fulfillment in today's demanding business landscape.

Send us a textThe ground shifted under America's political feet, and you can feel the rumble from City Hall to Capitol Square. New York—long the altar of finance—just elected a socialist mayor on a platform of affordability, transit access, and universal childcare. Virginia flipped every top office behind a former CIA officer who campaigned on paychecks, federal jobs, and dignity at work. Two wins, two styles, one unmistakable signal: voters are rewarding leaders who meet real life where it hurts—rent, groceries, and stability.We unpack how Ziran Mamdani's biography—immigrant roots, community organizing, openly Muslim faith—became a strength because it matched the substance: fare-free buses, housing that doesn't demand three jobs, and public goods treated as modern infrastructure. We connect his rise to New York's deeper memory, from LaGuardia to labor, and trace why the old worship of productivity cracked after a pandemic, a rent crisis, and billionaire spectacle. The moral language matters here, too—faith against mammon, compassion against cynicism—without demanding shared theology to feel the charge.Then we head south to Virginia, where Abigail Spanberger's steadiness beat the spectacle. By centering affordability and protecting the federal workforce, she offered competence over culture-war theatrics. We talk stakes for both parties: why Democrats need the left's fire to animate purpose and the center's discipline to build maps; why Republicans misread a cycle where shutdowns and cuts landed in kitchen-table budgets. Along the way, we explore California's Prop 50 redistricting gambit and widen the lens to the myths that keep Americans divided—especially the “lazy millions” narrative that blames downward while power concentrates upward.If you care about affordable housing, living wages, public transit, and a middle class worth the name, this conversation maps the new political imagination taking shape.

En Capital Intereconomía hemos comenzado la jornada repasando las claves del día y la evolución de los mercados en Asia, Wall Street y Europa, marcadas por el nerviosismo en torno al sector tecnológico y la inteligencia artificial. En el primer análisis de la mañana, Alexis Ortega, profesor de Finanzas en la EAE Business School, ha explicado las causas del pánico bursátil que sacude los mercados ante las dudas sobre las valoraciones de las empresas de IA. Ortega ha señalado que “llevamos meses escuchando que viene una corrección” y que el mercado “ha entrado en una fase de ajuste natural tras la exuberancia de los últimos trimestres”. También ha analizado el comportamiento del dólar y los refugios preferidos por los inversores, como el yen japonés o los bonos soberanos, en un entorno de creciente volatilidad. En el repaso de la prensa económica, nacional e internacional, se ha puesto el foco en los últimos movimientos de los bancos centrales, la evolución del empleo en EE.UU. y las tensiones políticas en Europa. Además, entrevistamos a Enrique Cocero, consultor político, para analizar la actualidad en Estados Unidos, donde el cierre de Gobierno se ha convertido ya en el más largo de la historia, con consecuencias económicas y sociales notables. Cocero también comentó la victoria de Zohran Mamdani en las elecciones de Nueva York, un resultado que consolida el giro progresista en la política local y que podría tener implicaciones nacionales de cara a 2026.

En Capital Intereconomía hemos seguido en directo la apertura del Ibex 35 y del resto de bolsas europeas, que arrancan la sesión a la baja siguiendo la estela de Wall Street, arrastradas por el miedo a una posible burbuja en la inteligencia artificial y la huida de los inversores hacia activos refugio. En el análisis de mercados, Patricia García, socia fundadora de MacroYield y directora del Máster en Finanzas de ESIC Business & Marketing School, ha explicado las causas del pánico bursátil que domina los mercados. La experta destacó la fuerte demanda de bonos del Tesoro estadounidense, cuya rentabilidad a 10 años ha caído a mínimos de la última semana, reflejando la búsqueda de seguridad por parte de los inversores. Se han volatilizado 500.000 millones de dólares de capitalización en el mercado tecnológico, lo que reaviva las dudas sobre una posible corrección estructural tras meses de subidas impulsadas por la euforia de la IA. En el plano corporativo, Novo Nordisk redujo previsiones de crecimiento para sus fármacos de pérdida de peso ante la presión sobre los precios, mientras que Ørsted mantuvo sus estimaciones para el año. Además, el cierre de Gobierno en Estados Unidos se convierte ya en el más largo de la historia, añadiendo más incertidumbre al panorama económico global. La jornada se completó con el consultorio de bolsa, dirigido por Miguel Méndez, analista independiente, quien analizó valores clave y las oportunidades que pueden surgir en un contexto de corrección.

Craig Siegel was The Walking Dead. Thirteen years on Wall Street. Making good money but the lights were on and nobody was home. Depleted at the end of every day. Not tired from a job well done. Depleted from being completely out of alignment. Then he started running marathons. Those miles became his connection time. Tapping into divine inspiration without caring about anything else. The pandemic hit and Craig shut his office for two weeks. Used that time to get quiet and reassess. Realized his obsession with personal development wasn't just passion. It was assignment. Built a ten-lane highway strategy. Coaching. Speaking. TED talk. Podcast. Book deal. Started with zero following. Zero connections. Here's what gripped me. Craig said going back to his old life equated to death. Not metaphorically. He actually associated death with choosing to return to Wall Street. He went back one day after starting CLS. Came home and said never again. Burned the ships. All in or die trying. The difference between pressure and stress became clear. Pressure is a flashlight showing massive growth on the other side. Stress means you're in the wrong arena. Out of alignment. Soul contracting. When you feel drained depleted tired in that deep way it's your signal to reassess everything. The transformation included his entire identity. Got engaged to his soulmate. Got a new puppy. Everything reinvented. Before that he wasn't even himself. Created a persona based on nothing. When he reinvented he gave himself permission to be less than perfect. Journey back to actual him. People would gravitate or they wouldn't. He could live with that. The money story is crucial. Craig makes more now than he ever made on Wall Street. Difference is it's a byproduct and energetic exchange. You can have purpose and love what you're doing while unapologetically doing business too. Most people think what made them successful was the arena not themselves. Wrong. You make everything successful. Those characteristics transfer. The Reinvention Formula released last August. Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller. Fifteen years of personal development condensed. First step is getting clarity. Realizing you're not in alignment. Understanding you have a choice. This is your movie. You're the main character. If you don't like the plot the pen is in your hands to rewrite the next scene.We Meet: Craig Siegel, Global Keynote SpeakerConnect:Connect with Rick: https://linktr.ee/mrrickjordanConnect with Craig: https://www.instagram.com/craigsiegel_cls/Subscribe & Review to ALL IN with Rick Jordan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickJordanALLINAbout Craig: Craig Siegel, Wall Street Journal and USA Today Best-Selling Author of 'The Reinvention Formula,' is a global keynote speaker, coach, TEDx speaker, and host of The CLS Experience podcast. Endorsed by luminaries like Jim Kwik and Ed Mylett, Craig, a 7-time marathoner, left his Wall Street job during the pandemic to pursue his true purpose. His mastery, energy, and inspirational impact have made CLS one of the most engaging communities globally. Craig focuses on removing limiting beliefs, fostering positive mindsets in both business and personal realms, and encouraging a wholehearted commitment to one's true purpose. He believes the riskiest thing we can do is to play it safe.

In Geopolitics with Ghost Ep. 54, Ghost unpacks the tangled web of war drums, deep-state deception, and global power plays. The episode opens with Maria Corina Machado,fresh off her Nobel Peace Prize, calling for U.S. military strikes against Venezuela, a move Ghost exposes as a textbook regime-change psyop orchestrated by Western intelligence and global finance. From leaked Pentagon timelines predicting attacks during the “Beaver Moon” to revelations about Wall Street hedge funds salivating over Venezuela's oil, Ghost draws the throughline between economic conquest and spiritual corruption. Dick Cheney's death becomes a symbolic pivot point for dissecting neocon legacies, CIA operations in Mexico, and the U.S. military buildup in the Caribbean. He then expands the scope, connecting cartel wars, Middle Eastern oil manipulation, and the Sovereign Alliance's resistance to globalism. Rounding out the show with Saudi diversification, Microsoft's AI ambitions in the UAE, and Trump's stance on Nigeria's Christian genocide, Ghost ties the week's chaos into one grand geopolitical thriller where energy, ideology, and empire collide.

Emmanuel argues that modern markets have become spiritually and ethically unmoored — a “Wild West” driven by greed, memes, and misplaced faith in AI. He shares his candid views on what true stewardship means, why hoarding gold is spiritually toxic, and why investors need humility more than hype.In this episode:– Why “stacking” gold is spiritual hoarding, not investing– How AI mania mirrors the dot-com bubble of the '90s– The moral hazard of speculation and market idolatry– Where Fr. Emmanuel still finds real value in equities like Adobe and Flower Foods– Why faith and finance don't have to be at oddsLead-Lag Live brings you inside conversations with the financial thinkers who shape markets.

Diving into the controversial world of Modafinil, the "all-nighter in a pill", Matt begins with the story of Olympic sprinters using the narcolepsy drug as a loophole for a competitive edge. He then unpacks the science of how Modafinil affects brain chemistry to boost wakefulness and cognition, tracing its evolution from a medical treatment to a performance enhancer for the military, Wall Street, and students, all attempting to push human limits by cheating sleep.Despite its potent effects, Modafinil carries significant risks and ethical dilemmas. Matt discusses its side effects, potential for psychological dependency, and the unknowns of long-term use. The episode examines complex questions of fairness and the potential for "cognitive inequality." Ultimately, Matt argues that while the drug masks fatigue, it cannot replace the vital restorative functions of natural sleep. The "sleep debt" must eventually be repaid, as true well-being depends on this biological necessity, not a pill.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.One of this week's sponsors, LMNT, offers a science-based electrolyte drink with no sugar or artificial ingredients.
