Veteran personal finance journalist John Waggoner stops by to answer the questions that experts are getting at the grocery store, the doctor's office or anywhere someone can inquire about whether current events — and fears over the potential future of tariffs, Social Security, Medicare and more — need to be addressed by financial moves now. Waggoner notes that people who crave some certainty and comfort can make moves — like considering annuities to bolster retirement income — but he suggested keeping changes to a minimum and avoiding knee-jerk reactions. Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, looks at bitcoin mining — and compares the investment allocation possibilities of the crypto world versus gold and gold miners — with his pick for "ETF of the Week." Will Rhind, chief executive officer at GraniteShares talks about disruptive stocks — his firm runs the Nasdaq Select Disruptors ETF — and business-development companies in the Market Call.

And, what is the manufacturing sector signaling about the overall economy? Snap-on CEO Nick Pinchuk weighs in.
Dave Rosenberg, president of Rosenberg Research, says that anyone believing a no-landing scenario believes in pixie dust, and that investors are mistaking record highs on the stock market for a booming economy. He sees the economy as cooling off, and warning signs building, and notes that the Federal Reserve is too focused on lagging indicators, but the trouble they have been guarding against is still coming. Meanwhile, Rosenberg says investors aren't getting paid to take on equity risk, so he is happy in being in money markets and bonds while he waits for conditions to change.

Emily Roland, co-chief investment strategist at John Hancock Investment Management, says that there is a lot of value opening up in fixed income, allowing bonds to do "more heavy lifting" in a portfolio than in recent years. She notes that bonds will ride out the choppy market until a recession sets in and yields fall precipitously, at which point bond prices will rise, goosing returns amid an economic contraction.

CNBC's Courtney Reagan spoke with Will Rhind, Founder and CEO of GraniteShares, and Dave Nadig, Financial Futurist at VettaFi. They did a deep dive into single-stock ETFs one year after launching in the U.S. - exploring the promise and pitfalls of single-stock bets on and against big names like Tesla and Nvidia. Plus, gold has yet to regain its luster despite high hope from gold bugs earlier in the year. Our panel debated what's going on with gold, bitcoin and the broader commodity space amid China's deflationary environment.
Are we in a trap between positive U.S. economic data and weaker China economic data? The gold price has fallen to the lowest level since March 2023. The Russian risk has de-escalated, but still remains. Will Rhind says that the U.S. Dollar price firming is not good for gold. Recessionary pressures, however, would help the commodity. Is gold a hedge against an ever-rising stock market today?
“Clearly, people that are familiar with the market would say, 'what do they know that nobody else doesn't?'” asks Will Rhind, founder and CEO of GraniteShares, as news circulates that BlackRock's spot bitcoin exchange-traded fund application may likely get approved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. He claims that the saga has been ongoing for years and it is unclear why many large institutions such as Fidelity and Invesco are following suit now. Additionally, Rhind claims that investors should be level-headed about Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's comments on raising interest rates. “We have to be a little bit careful at the same time… that's why the response from the market so far has been a little bit measured.” He concludes that the U.S. economy is strong and that signals a “dampening demand for [precious] metals.” ➡️ Watch Here

We have three different aid Ks, right? Form eight, three different aid Ks last night, um, around, uh, at, uh, out between five 16 and 5:26 PM.You, you all have seen these by now. The middle one is the one that says that the CEO, uh, as resigned, the CFO is resigned and several board members have, have resigned. That's what the eight K said. Um, that's kind of all that the eight K said, right? Um, there it is Chris Ferguson resignation as a CEO, um, bread bread, Roman resonation to CFO.Um, and then we used to king was appointed. So new CEO, you know, this was out in the AK last night. Okay. Let me, that was at 5:16 PM. Let's go into the chart here. Let's pull up a chart of BBI G you can see the reaction right away to the filing, not to any media report. Not to any tweets or any articles to the filing immediate.Okay. Right there. That's why the stock went down. Okay. Fast forward a little while. Uh, I'm going to go to a different newsfeed. Now. This is just a news feed of Benzinger pro headlines from our news desk. Um, five. This is the best part of it is being a pro is we have receipts for everything. 5:49 PM was our first headline on, on BBG 5:49 PM.At that point, the stock had already actually bottomed had already bought them for the free for the after hours session. Right. And this is right there. We actually bought them ticket. That's pretty impressive. So, so we, we post about the, the eight K at 5 49. We post a little longer version of an article at 6 0 6.Okay. Fast forward to this morning, 12 hours later, right? 6:18 AM. Let's go back to my press release theater is actually 6 15, 6, 15:00 AM, 12 hours after the filing 13 hours after the filing Mathis hard. And they, and they come out with this press release and they clarify what they provide more color on, on, on the Mo the, the news from yesterday, uh, what Chris is actually doing, what Brett's actually doing, what Lisa is actually doing, um, 13 hours after the fact.And so can we pull up here's, let's go back to my. Let me zoom out. This is a one minute chart, by the way. Um, it really, wasn't a reaction to the press release this morning, but you, I, I guess if you zoom out and you, you, you can say the fact that zoom in here, the fact that we're trading higher today is in itself a reaction to the press release.Um, but clearly the market is confused about this. A lot of you, people in the chat I've been following the story a lot more closely than I have. And then Aaron has, um, so you, you probably understood this better than, you know, the, the, the market, but if the press release this morning is saying that, you know, these are, these are planned resignations.There's nothing really new here with them. The market did not know that the AK was not clear if that's the case, but in any case, we're going to get 10 on a few minutes to clarify, hopefully clarify what exactly happened here. Uh, cause this is confusing stuff. You've got three eight Ks plus a press release and they come out on different days.Um, it's a little bit, a little bit confusing. So, so, so that's the story. Everyone was like shitting all over us last night as if we are the reason the stock was down. I was going to ask Spencer, I mean, say we live in an alternative universe where. Uh, you know, Benzinga doesn't exist. Benzinga pro doesn't exist.These eight Ks still go out last night, correct. In case we're out last night, again, pull, I'll pull at the timestamp here. So the AKA's hit the tape. There's three of them, the first one at 5:16 PM. The second one, 20 seconds later. Right. Right here is where I'm at. So wait, go back to, so Tuesday, 5:16 PM, this eight K.And that would hit any, you know, uh, w was there a PR that went out with that or no, no, no, no, no press release last night, just three sec filings three eight Ks with the sec. And, and they said different things, right. Uh, one of them talked about, you know, spinning off. One of them talked about th the, the news that actually matters.I think though, again, I'm not quite clear, which is why we've only had Ted on the show today. Um, but it's confusing. You would think with news of this nature, that they would have also been in accompanying press release, or they would have clarified a lot of confusion in any case. Um, but you did see the stock react to the AKA's last night, quickly.It was immediate, which means that, um, you know, it means what the chart shows. It means that the market thought that this was bad news. I don't actually know if it was hopefully technically. Got it. I'm just trying to, I'm trying to see the, the viewpoint that, um, all right. So Brent Slava and the Chad St.Benzinga pro also reported timely when the press release was issued in the morning. Um, and like you said, spend something the stock's been trading up all day today up about 9% from where it opened. Um, so yeah, I mean, I'm excited to get Ted on, see, you know, his explanation for everything that went down.Um, it, it sounds like maybe even just the market in general, wasn't aware that these resignations had been planned, correct. I mean, that's what you could imply from the chart. Right? Right. I guess my question for Ted, uh, if that really, if that's the case is this whole thing could have been avoided if they just clarify that in, in, in the, in the eight Ks that these were planned, but that's the point is they didn't say that in the eight K I can show it to you.They didn't say anything. It just said there was more color this morning and the press release. Then there was in the three filings last night. So basically the way I'm seeing it, Spencer is, wait, do we still have here on my I'm sharing my Benzinga pro now. So we have the eight K come out. Um, you know, obviously the, the resignations, a lot of times not great sign for a company to stock trades off.Then we put out a headline saying the stock is plummeting, which is just reporting on what has happened. Um, so, and like I said, I'm pretty sure we bought him ticket, which is actually impressive. Yeah. If you look at the time of that, What was that five for the post where we put the headline out after the AKA's was about 6 0 6 0 6 PM.Okay. And then the, the, the bottom last night was made at, uh, I've lost my, it took my woman and turn off the screen, but it was made somewhere around there, which is, which is interesting in any case, right around like 5 45. Um, but yeah, I mean, look, this has been performing well today, like I said, up about 9%, um, from it's open, let me get a, even a shorter timeframe chart on here.So yeah. I mean, let's Spencer. I see Ted hanging out. I think just get, I think enough of us blabbing. I agree. I see Ted backstage. Let's just, let's just get, get Ted Farnsworth on the show here.There he is. Good. How are you doing today? I'm doing great. And I'm still hoarse from our dandelion festival up here. So my voice is a little hoarse, but I'm doing, we appreciate you taking time today. Uh, well, let's start with this. Can you clarify? The filings are out last night, you guys had asked a bunch of stuff.Design CFO, resigned board members resigned. Was that all planned resignations. It's been playing for almost since we started this for months and months where it was a natural transition. So for instance, Chris Bergeson, the CEO now and Brett, the CFO, first of all, all the management staying intact. I mean, I literally been on the phone with Chris probably three or four times today, alone.Um, just in really what he's doing is coming in the field to help us to grow the business on that side. And then Lisa King really being the new CEO is all about operations executing internally while we're up building the business. So this has been planned for months and months and months. Um, and Chris have been working together for quite some time during the whole process as well.Okay. Um, there appears to be some, some confusion though, right? In, in the market, right. Uh, if you, the shorts love to do so many reports, the eight K and they'll start running with their own stories until we get our press release out and start to clarify the story. Go ahead. Right. So, so Mike, so the AKA's were out last night, the press release was out this morning, you know, 99 times out of a hundred, you see an AK and you see that the CEO and the CFO resigning, you don't even think you just, you react.Right. So, right. So, um, you clarified the, that was our bad, but by the way, for it really should have gone out with the Presley's at the time, but we didn't have all the sign-offs on that. So the AK went out because of the time limits and knowing we're going to do it. We didn't think, you know, And in hindsight, you always look at that stuff, but the press release was already in the works already in legal for process and everything else.And we're sitting there looking at it. They're not resigning at all. We're, we're taking the board from Vinco and moving them over to immersive, to a brand new startup. I think that's the best thing in the world for the shareholders, because you have a proven board, a proven CEO and a proven CFO, and then Brian being the one was with Vinco before who's now going to be the CEO of the new company everybody's intact, but you're surrounding Brian, the new CEO with the best possible board, the best CFO who they've been doing this for years together.So our natural thing was to push that, to put them in the new subsidiary that we're spinning out, give it the best chance of success that it could have. And then, um, and everybody's still intact. And Chris will be out on the road with us, just building a business day to day. Just what we're doing. You know, I guess, I guess why not clarify that in the eight K last night?Well, two things that's, it's a great question. I've had that a bunch of times the AK and the Presley's are two different things. Your AK is always very factual for all the sec filings the regulations, the timelines, factual. This is what it is. Is it a tender your resignation? It is because that's what it is.And that's what the law calls it. However, it's really a handoff, any staying in the company, all of them. And we're just shifting the management around. And this has gone on this whole management plan has been planned now for several months of what to do, but you're right about that. Most people asset, and they don't realize they're two different things, the press release, but normally you would put your Presley's with the cat.So when we put out the press release is really to clarify the bullet points of that. Chris is here on a three-year deal. You know, I mean, look what, when we came together months before that working with Chris and everybody at Vinco and we decided to come together with, with those guys, we've been, look what we built as a team.Why would you break up the team? It's like, it's like having an NBA basketball team championship or a super bowl team. Why in the world would you break up that team? So the opposite, you know, it's almost like special teams. I can push them over here to make sure as we're pushing over here, the new company that we're spinning out, you absolutely.We're all going to have shares in that. So you absolutely want to make sure that it has the best shot to go forward. And, um, so I'm thrilled with where it is. And Lisa King is an amazing executive. Um, you know, came up through Dick's sporting goods when they had three stores, et cetera, has her own book done, done incredibly well.And I've worked with Lisa for probably the last four or five years on multiple projects. And really, it was really about her time to. To shine and to really show the world where she can go see, were you surprised then to see the reaction last night too clearly to the eight K, right? Oh yeah. Yeah. Because, but you know what, in all fairness, even like with nobody, like, like you guys like Benzinger or CNBC or whatever, you only see the facts of the AK.So that's what you report last night right now. I know. Right, right. But, but what I'm saying is like, it's not anybody doing it maliciously. Now the shorts will run with it. They'll do their own thing and try to spin their own story and keep shorting the stock or whatever it is. And then everybody will feed into that or they won't.But the one thing you gotta remember, like, as you know, you know, where like the Reddit crowd and all this stuff, these guys are way more sophisticated than people give them credit for. They understand what's going on. They know it's about the name change. Why change the name disaster? Well, yesterday Facebook announced that they're changing their name.Plus I'm a check marks. We're CRISPR. Well, these like you're out, but he's going and where he's going. So to us, even with that, with the name change is to clarify the story. So there's no more like Vinco CVV this, that, or, and it's really to consolidate the story. All one company, all under one company, all the management and the boards are all intact and working side-by-side with each other.And look, we got 62% of the vote of. Last week or whatever, whatever date it was was to do that. And then the other was pushing, cause I'm sure you guys are getting the same questions is as you're taking Krypton and you're pushing it down the road, which we don't like doing that. But we also to make sure it's a tax-free exchange.And when the shareholders get those shares on that public company, they're free trading shares, you know? And so that dividend to them is really worth something. It's not a, you know, that, you're just not that you're just thinking about it and you're trying to do it. So it's a very well thought out pattern.And definitely we have learned lessons along the way, just for the fact of growing, you know, so quick, so fast. Um, but besides that, it's, it's like I'm thrilled to have the management teams and everybody all going full speed ahead. We were all were a little shocked for the reaction of it. I mean, we knew there'd be some, some reaction, but shock Ted.What's the, I guess like lesson learned here is it to put out, make sure the press release is ready to go out with these eight Ks or wait until the next morning to put out these eight Ks. I mean, I, that's a great question and I'll tell you, and this is on the record. I was talking to Lisa King last night.I said, your lesson here is you never put out an eight K without a press release attached to it to explain it to clarify. And, uh, you know, it's just one of those things that happen, uh, going through the process of switching boards or whatever it was. And it was nobody in LA, Chris, everybody, they, they felt horrible.And I said, guys, it's okay. It's like when we started out in this. Literally you had like a $20 million market cap. I don't know, you know, eight, nine months ago. It's like the market will figure out as we keep telling the story exactly what we're doing as we're acquiring companies and things like that, Ted, uh, the chat, all they really want to know about is the spinoff date, uh, for tides, speaking of aid, Ks, that was actually the first aid K last night that, that hit before the other ones where you announced that the new record date is going to be is changed to October 22nd.Clarify the timeline for us here. It was look it's out there on the AK. And, uh, it was, um, whatever the date was on there, but the reason why it got pushed out was exactly what I said was with the lawyers and everybody else in here saying, look, you want to give, when you give this dividend, you want it to be a tax-free exchange for the shareholder as well as you want it to be free trading for the shareholder.And, um, he's pulling up right now. I see, I love, so I hear he, he he's pulling me up. I'll just read it to you directly. Okay. Um, upon successful completion of the standalone audit, the company has based filing the form 10 K the week of October 25th with a record date of approximately 60 days post filing, which would be on or about December 27th, again, all in the AK guys, all right there.Right? Right. And, and what people do is shorters, we'll grab that and just grab, oh, another delay, whatever, none of that. And it's, it's so methodical. Look, our law firms are Greenberg Traurig, and in VIN, CO's got their law firms and TLP. Great great people around us that sit here and give us advice on these things about how to do it.And what's best for the shareholder. We don't always make the right decision. We never will. It's like, you're always gonna have like a mess up like this. But to your point, when I was talking to Lisa last night, I said, lesson, number one, you never put out an AK without a press release. And, uh, that was our bad on our side.And look, we're moving a million miles a minute. Um, and uh, I knew the AK was going out. I wasn't really thinking about the press release. I thought it was going to be attached to it, but it's like, you'll see over the next few weeks, all the different things we got going on. I mean, we're a little busy.Okay. So I, I, I hope that we're gonna be seeing some filings and press releases to go with them. Oh you, well, you absolutely will. And look, I love coming on your guys' show to clarify stuff and any time where, you know, there's confusion and then confusion, breeds confusion. So what I'm saying is when you see what's going on behind Zass, it's like you would never break up this team.You you'd be crazy to break up this team. What we've built together as a team pinkos Ash and all of our companies together over the last several months is, you know, it's phenomenal in the pace that we're going at. And also the companies that we're acquiring and things is real like ad riser and, uh, you know, things like that.LAMODA is doing phenomenal. You're going to see the. You know, refacing of the motives, some rebranding, all that stuff, uh, coming up here shortly. So in our numbers for revenue, as they had been, co-ed very small revenues over the years, you're going to see pretty significant growth going forward here in, on the revenue side, we're testing out all kinds of things on the ad platform could not be happier with ad riser where that's going.I mean, that's just a machine in itself that really is like Google ad words and Facebook where that's going to drive revenue from LaMotta. But even on its own, it tries to look, you know, I'm just trying to clarify some stuff from the China. So let me read you all again directly, and then I'll ask Ted, uh, I'm going to read from the filing, the K the, the, the one about, uh, tide.And it says the company anticipates filing the form 10 and the week of October 25th with a record date of 60 days from there. So you still don't have a referral date yet, right? Correct. No, we do. I mean, unless something comes up that we don't foresee, I mean, you, you never put like the exact date, just because if something happens, you know, God forbid one of us was in the hospital or something you don't know, but so you always have that language, but I'm telling you that we know what's under the clock.And we also know we want to spin out to happen before the end of the year. So it's December 27. So it really, it, it really fits into all the things we're doing in look, forgive us. You know, maybe putting out the AK without the Presley saw that, but when you really look at what's going on with the company itself, that to me is the bigger story, the growth, everything that we're seeing being, you know, uh, the short form video that whole spaces has blown up.The metaverse, all these things that were really on the forefront of, and you'll be seeing a lot of that stuff coming out. I said, I know last time we had you on, we talked a lot about, um, I might butcher the pronunciation here, but I think it's low motive, the motive, the motive, and like everybody here.It's funny, everybody here in Paul, in Singapore, by the way, the whole Singapore team was here a couple of weeks ago, we had a whole executive summit here in Syracuse at the studio when we kicked off the dandelion music concert and all that, which was phenomenal, it turned out great. And we're putting that on the road.Cause it's all about content guys. Like we live at millions of streamers on that and they were, you know, sit there and edit it and all that. But it's the motive when everybody calls it Lomo. So you'll be seeing stop where, you know, we've already trademarked Lomo and stuff like that. You'll be starting to see here, things coming up over the next, you know, even a couple of weeks, maybe in the next few days, you know, where we're doing different branding initiatives with other companies out there and some exciting things.So, um, but talking about locomotive, Lomo, you know, um, Go ahead. Lobo. That's a little easier for me, for me to say , but I think last time it was, uh, there was a certain, uh, you know, percentage or steak that y'all held. And I was curious if, you know, you've thought about like fully at acquiring or what the status is there.Look, we have it out there that our intention is to fully acquire it in. Um, and we have that right to do that. So the bottom line is that that is when they were all here, everybody from Singapore, and they're still here in the states, they're in California and be, you know, traveling around the states, doing different things with different groups with us, but absolutely, um, th the whole intention is to own a hundred percent of it.And we couldn't be happier with that whole team. And then adding our other technology teams together and putting them together, Ted Ted, before we hop off here, uh, Chad, all they really care about, I guess, aside from the record date here on the spinoff, is this ratio. Can you share that ratio with us of the spinoff or not, or not yet for tide?You know what I, I thought the ratio is in the K so I better not, you didn't see it, but it's very good for the shareholders. We'll leave it at that. What about ballpark? I didn't see the name. I'm looking for. The I'm looking at the you're giving me heat for the AK. Now you want me to say something? That's not okay.Come on. I don't shoot the messenger. They're about to kill us. Listen, I'll tell you. I'll tell you this, you know, when, when you're a shareholder of both sides, I mean, you're fighting for the shareholder, right? So let's, let's leave it at that. I mean, and uh, I thought it was in there last night, or I thought it was in one of the filings a bit ago, but I'll take a look and then I'll come back on and tell you if it's not, how about that?We'll put a press release out with that. It can be exactly,uh, with our audience and stuff like that. We have tens of thousands of shareholders. I mean, it's way even more than that, but, and the whole crowd out there. So we really appreciate your support and letting us clarify things coming on and chatting about it. Ted, Ted Farnsworth. Thanks a lot for coming and for coming on today.I appreciate it. Thanks. Thanks. Talk to you later. All right. Just to clarify one thing, everyone, the record date, this is how it goes for M and a for spinoffs for dividends. The record date is the date that the company is going to take stock of all their shareholders, right? They're going to basically go look at all the lists of, okay, who owns shares in our company.Those people are going to get the spinoff, right? If you, if you, so Ted, you said December 27th, that's what, that's what you just said that day. It was also in the final and it wasn't as firm, but that's what he said just now. So December 27th is gonna be your deadline. If you want the spinoff to get to, you have to own BBI BBG on December 27th.That's that's the record. That's the day where they're going to like take stock of all of their shareholders and. Go from there. That's what Ted said. The, the eight K said, uh, they, it was less from the AK actually said they anticipate filing the 10, the 10 K the week of, uh, October 25th, the anticipate filing that week and then 60 days from there, which will be the 27th of December.So everyone sit tight. It all will come. The clock doesn't start until we get the 10 K. Okay. When we got the 10 K the clock will start until then no clock. So Spencer, I got, I got Corey in the chat. He or she is saying, Spencer, what does this all mean? I'm a newbie. Let's do a quick 62nd, ER, Eli fi uh, about what this whole thing.Okay. When a man loves a woman, I have no idea what this whole thing, uh, PBIG is going is, is spinning off another company. Um, okay. They're spinning off tide. They're doing all their stuff too. This is just one part of that one piece of the puzzle and what is tied, who cares? Okay. Okay. That's not the point.The point is just spinning off tide. Okay. That spinoff hasn't happened yet. They have to let their shareholders know when it does happen. They're going to let the shareholders know in their 10 K in their quarterly filing, which hasn't happened. From there 60 days from whenever that filing is, is going to be the date where you at your deadline to own the stock.If you want to spinoff, that's the bottom line here. I'm not going to pretend I'm not, I'm not going to sit here. Pretend that I'm an expert in BBI G I don't think I'm acting like one, but I do understand like, like the timeline process. And I, I understand why people were upset with the way, uh, you know, things, the information came out last night, but as Ted said, you know, that was a plain and simple mistake on the company's part to not have a press release out, explaining this eight K that, Hey, look, all these rights, the nations are planned part of this spinoff.Um, you know, cause if you just see that information, come out with no explanation with no color and you see all these guys are designing, of course the markets are going to react like that. And that has nothing to do with how we reported it or anything else. So, I mean, I, you know, it's a interesting section, I think understand the type of people that are trading after hours.Right. They see that it's it's people and it's also bots, right? It's also algos. They see a head, they see, uh, an eight K and for the record form 10 equals a 10 K it's the same thing for me equals eight K. It's the same thing you see, you see an eight K see you on the CFR out. You don't, you don't think you, you don't even care.You don't even, you just, you sell. That's how, that's, how these things always work. Okay. In this case, there's obviously a little bit more to the story. You had to, you had to either know the story or wait 13 hours to get the story. Um, so that, that's why the stock reacted the way it did last night. Uh, I, I'm just curious in the chat like, and we have our next guests here.We have to bring them on into this in a second. I see him waiting, but like, I, don't almost afraid to ask this question, but like what percentage of your portfolios is BBI? G I, I really just am genuinely curious. I'm not trying to shame. I'm not judging. I'm just genuinely curious. What percentage of y'all's investments is BBG?Is that like, are we talking like 90%? We're talking like 10%. Thank you. Pencil. Get crypto. That's very helpful. Whoever's whoever's posting, flipping. Think of crypto low Giddings in Logan's in like psychology 1000 right now in Ann Arbor posts. Thank you, Logan. That's extremely helpful. 50 15, 0 hundred, a hundred seventy five forty.Seen a couple of 69. That's very helpful. Um, five 70 trading options only didn't even know this was stock was optionable. Okay. Uh, 1%. 5%. Okay. I'm just, I'm just curious. I just want to get an idea. All right. Uh, so I hope you guys enjoyed that. I, I hope we have more clear. I think we have more clarity. The bottom line is wait for the, the, the damn quarterly filing.Wait for the wait for the. The week of the 25th. So that's next week, right? Yeah. I don't know. What's today, the 20, the 20th. So, so yeah, next week we'll get their quarterly filing. Presumably there'll be more color in that, presumably that will, that will determine the record date. And then we just go from there.So I don't know what the stock is doing. I haven't looked in since Ted came on. What is it doing here? It's down. Yeah, guys. Sorry. There's there's mutual fund market players out there. Sorry. Yeah. Blame the market makers, not special. Like, you know, we get Ted Farnsworth on the show, uh, you know, to, to give this explanation, you will not find this anywhere else on YouTube.You know, you can go tune in to other places, CNBC, but you won't get this transparency. And at the end of theyou're breaking up, uh, it's not our job to make sure your stock goes up. Okay. Sorry. I mean, I don't know what else to say about that, but, uh, we, we, we, we got, uh, our, our, our, our next guest is here just like laughing in the background about this. So we should probably bring him on here. Uh, we're going to transition away from the BBI G talks.So if that's why you're here. Great. You just got to have 38 minutes of it. And now we're going to move on with the rest of our. All right. So our next guest is, will rind. Yeah. Smash that like button we've got, will Ryan here, the founder and CEO of granted shares. We're going to talk, uh, inflation and commodities here with will.So, uh, w w let's get well on here. Well, oh, sorry about that. That was my fault. Well, what's up, man? How are we doing great. We're doing great. We're doing great. Our chat hates us right now, but like, it is what it is. How's your day going? Doing good. Doing good. Thank you. Okay. Um, well, uh, you see your granite chairs.You guys have a couple, uh, commodity focus ETFs. Um, I guess let's just start beyond that here. Um, inflation is a thing is a transitory. I don't know. You don't know? No one seems to really know. Um, but what are you seeing right now with, with your different ETFs and the various commodities? Cause theoretically, a lot of commodities are seen as inflation hedges, whether that actually happens is of course a different story.Yeah, no, absolutely. I mean, I think the key question, like you said, there's inflation. Um, that's something that, you know, let's be honest, we haven't seen for the multiple decades. Uh, and so this is all a new thing for people. Um, seeing the crisis rising kind of in front of them, whether it's the gas pumps, whether it's the grocery stores or whether it's, you know, rants or used cars.I mean, this is all kind of new stuff. And obviously in the investing side, people are asking themselves, well, I know inflation is a bad thing, right. But how do I, how do I play that? How do I make sure my portfolio is positioned? Well, make sure that I can make some money out of this. And so commodities or real assets has always been kind of one of those places that people go to.Why? Because a lot of the things that are rising in price, the reason why, um, we have inflation is because commodities themselves are rising. So price of oil is rising, which affects your gas prices at the pump. Price of raw materials are rising, which affects a lot of the goods that we buy. Um, and so for that reason, you know, you have energy and food, which in the commodity complex, those arising.And one way to get ahead of that is actually to invest in those yourself. Okay. Let's talk about oil here for a second because, uh, oil can't seem to stop going up. Uh, I guess it's the, uh, one of the elephants in the room here. Um, I, whenever I see oil rising, I'm inclined to, to sell it and not think it'll keep going higher, but I even proven wrong this entire time here.So oil is at $83 right now. Um, w just, what is your take on what's going on? Well, what's going on, Spencer is that, um, you know, part of this is we do have obviously huge amount of demand, uh, global economies opening up. And so there is a, there is a large amount of demand and the right now we have more demand than supply.And so, yes, we could put more supply. We could see more supply coming on the market from OPEC or the OPEC plus group, but I don't think that's going to matter at this stage. What really matters is people almost expecting there to be higher prices with going into winter at the moment. There's a huge energy crisis going on in Europe, which you may have seen, they've have talked about on the show.Um, but gas prices, um, in a lot of Europe are the equivalent of over $150 a barrel oil. And so people are sort of worrying that that might happen. That could happen here this time, around your other traditional kind of methods of putting more supply onto the market, such as shale, et cetera, it'd be much more disciplined because a lot of activists, shareholders and things have gotten involved and said, well, look, you got to focus on, uh, you know, rewarding shareholders as opposed to just pumping more.And so from that perspective, you know, we're in this situation where the market's pretty tight prices are going up. I don't really see the reason or the capitalist, the prices to go down and sure. Are you going to enough to throw on a target for us or now I, I, I don't know. I mean, I, I think that, you know, we could see over a hundred dollars a barrel, certainly in the next six months.Um, it's definitely not implausible given what's happened in Europe, really just crazy. Uh, what's coming out of the UK and what's going out of the European countries in terms of the gas crisis. Um, so I think, you know, coming into this, the big, there's another sort of El Nino effect. Um, this winter's already, we're starting to hear about colder winter than normal.Um, so in this environment, I don't think a hundred a barrel is, is, is out of this world. Okay. What about gold here? You've got this bar ETF, right? The Greenwich has gold trust. Why hasn't gold gone up? Explain to me, I always was told gold is an inflation hedge. Gordon's an inflation hedge. Why is that not working right now?Where we actually have inflation? That is a great question. I hope you can answer it. I I'll try. I'll try. I'll certainly give you my take on, on what's going on. And what I think is happening is that the market, and this is the important thing you and I know there's inflation. But that's not what the market effects.The market's still things that inflation is transitory. And that is by and large, the narrative that comes out of the federal reserve. And I think at the moment you still have the market cleans this idea that inflation is a short-term phenomenon. So the administration saying this is lot of a lot as well, and that it's nothing to worry about.It will all pass quickly. And we'll sort of be back to our normal kind of trajectory now because of this gold prices, aren't reacting in that way because the market participants in the market more broadly, there doesn't think that inflation is a problem. But I think the moment that there's an acknowledgement by the market, that inflation is a problem.Then I think we see gold prices significantly north of here. But until that point, you have this scenario where the dollars being strong, you have inflation transitory narrative, and that has suppressed the price of gold for the moment. That's as good a theory as I guess you can throw out there right now, but I guess everyone is sort of scratching their heads.So in theory, based on what you just said, if the February. Well, they already have come out actually to some extent and said that, yeah, inflation is a bit stickier than we thought it would be right off the bat. Um, but if they were to come out and reiterate that in theory, then you think gold should go higher.Well, then so expensive because you know, that inflation is not great for the market mean let's be honest. I mean, you can't really have a situation where the one hand pick market acknowledges that inflation is a problem, but yet we have stock markets all time highs because as we know right now, we're still at a situation where the earnings, at least what we've seen so far earnings have been really strong.So that means that companies are able to pass on inflation effects to customers where relevant or adapt to this particular environment, still posts, great earnings. Now that all ends when they can't do that. And that's why inflation at the end of the day is a really bad thing for markets more broadly.But we're just not there yet. What about this idea that everyone who would have bought called has, would you just much rather just buy Bitcoin? Right. Um, I definitely think that there's some of that going on. Um, but I think you're kind of traditional gold investors, um, are still sort of resolutely pinned to the idea that, you know, go with the, something different, a different investment.They'll still be kind of in the gold camp. That doesn't mean to say that they, they have not, or would not buy some Bitcoin as well, but yeah, That's largely Bitcoin's largest sort of a new or investment crowd that is in that. And that I think based upon my experience of the two counts, that's a different investor.Um, you, you you're, you're the CEO of an ETF company. So I guess I just want to ask you real quick about that Bitcoin futures ETF, right? What do you make of the opening? It, that it was almost a billion dollars in volume yesterday took in half a billion in inflows and one day it seems like it's tracking the NAF.Pretty good. So, uh, what's your take on all this? Well, it was nothing short of phenomenal. Um, I think that, you know, I, I, to be honest with you, I was surprised, and I did think that there would be a lot of demand, but I've thought that might be used a little bit because the price, I mean, yesterday's price and they could open up around $62,000 a Bitcoin.Um, so I thought, okay, if it was 30,000, you know, could be significantly higher, but you know, who's sort of jumping in and buying the coin that aggressively at that price, but it seemed like there was absolutely no lack of demand. Um, and obviously crazily, uh, opening yesterday, huge amounts of volume happening again today.So I think again, to me shows the strength and the power of the ETF wrapper that that's the weapon of choice for investors and that, you know, there's still, there's still some lack of trust with some of these other venues, a lot of platforms in terms of buying crypto, nobody wants to be having. Um, when they're holding an investment on a platform and so ETF, at least you can say a number of different things, but you know, you're not going to lose your money because of someone hacking you by buying the today.Yeah. It seems like yesterday was a gigantic victory for like ETF people, right? People like you, because it just showed that the ETF can, it can handle the volume and it can, it can, it can trade with a tight spread. It can be liquid, it can track the, you know, the nav net asset value and, and it can do it.You can do a well, even in a environment like yesterday where there was a ton of demand. So I think it just, uh, just a big victory probably for, yeah. I think it's in many ways, it's the greatest expression. I think of what an ETF is, which is gives market access to markets that are either difficult or there's some sort of issue that prevents it being kind of ubiquitous or available to everybody.And so when you look back at the history of ETF, some of the greatest kind of products have been where the ETF has unlocked a market that has caused problems. So if you look at gold, which is a good one, you know, back in 2004, um, different other asset classes as well. I think that's the, that's really like the power of what an ETF does is just puts whatever that investment is or that asset class is in your portfolio in a way that was not available before.Yep. Yeah. Great point. We'll Ryan is the CEO of granted shares. Well, uh, thanks, uh, bond for coming on today. And hanging out with us for a few minutes. We appreciate the pleasure. Thanks so much. All right. Uh, let's get a be back here in a second. Uh, okay. So just to put a ball, I think, put a bow on, on the BBG discussion.Um, I guess here's what I'll say about, about Benzinga and how we fit into that. Um, our headline last night was reflective of the eight K. Okay. Should we have known that the, uh, oh, what's up, man? Uh, should, should we have known that the departures were planned potentially? I mean, it's, I like the, it sounded like the shareholders held a vote on that.So I don't know if that becomes public info at that point. Um, there was probably a filing at some point that the shareholders were holding it. I would say just from a practicality standpoint, it is basically impossible for our news desk of 20 people to know the details of every single stock out there.Right. It's just not realistic. And, and that's not just for us. It's true for everyone because you saw, I saw headlines last night on MarketWatch and seeking alpha, and they all said the exact same thing that the eight K did, which was resignations. They did not say what the AK didn't say, which was that these were voted on, they're moving to a different company.So I think, I think the takeaway here, yes, I love Stonebridge rewind. The stream, like 50 minutes, 40 minutes. Right. Um, the takeaway here is that company could have been clear, um, and media sometimes right. Needs to take a second and, you know, try to understand the story. But, uh, you know, I, but, but the, the whole thing was kind of, uh, uh, communication cluster.Um, it's not everyday. You see this, that kind of finding come out with no pressure waste attached. Um, Flos asked me why BBG is down today or down since the interview. I mean, I don't know. I'm here talking to you. I'm not trying to pump, I don't own, we don't own this. We don't own it. We don't, we're not short it, no one here owns GBIG or a short PBIG.We have no dog in this fight. Only thing I genuinely care about is being right. Like accurate with information. That's what I genuinely care about. Okay. Accuracy. I think we have a better picture now from the interview with Ted. Yeah. So, so rage quitter is saying, you know, I'll bring it up on the screen.Right. We left out the whole left out the whole story though. Only report one part. We reported the part that everybody else saw, which was the part that was in the. This is a really complicated company. There's like, there's spinoffs, there's like mergers. There's, there's like four companies that play here.It's really confusing for the average person who is not spending his or her entire time understanding Vinco ventures. Right? Yeah. I mean, that's the thing, Spencer, if we had people on our news desk that were shareholders of vanco ventures, maybe they would have known that this vote was held, but, but the bottom line is, is we don't, we cover all, however many thousands of publicly traded companies there are out there.Um, so it's it's yeah. I mean, it is what it is. It sounds like Ted Ted understood, uh, the fault of the company, um, for not having that press release, go out with the eight K and I think that alone clears up all this confusion. Um, and like you said, is it possible that, you know, someone could have known that, Hey, look, this was voted on in the past, this is, um, you know, a hundred percent.So, you know, I, I think it's one of those things you live in your learning and hopefully the company learns from it as well. Um, Patrick star and the chat AB how your calls going? Yeah. Tell us please. Yeah, I pulled up my Robin hood earlier. They're doing well. The problem is I kind of screwed myself and I made a not dumb decision by opening some calls this morning that I can not close today.Well, I can close them, but if I do that, I'm going to be restricted. So, um, I sold, let's see. Go to my messages. So I sold my Baba calls this morning, Spencer. I opened a Roku one, wait, wait, wait, wait, don't tie me into this. This is you. This is all, you know, Spencer. That was your co that backed me up here.Shelly. I may have suggested it, but okay. I may fine. Fine. Uh, okay. Um, I bought the call for three. Wait, what? Okay. 3 83 per contract. Uh, sold it for three, seven days. So took a $13 loss, but we'll live with that. Made some money on the Baba calls today. That's why I was up about $725. Then I was up a few more hundred dollars on this Tesla call and I went to, went to close it.Couldn't close it because if I do, I'm going to be restricted. So now I'm basically stuck holding this Tesla call into tomorrow, which I don't love, not happy about it, but learn from the mistakes. Uh, I want to show up, show us something real fast. Um, someone asked why, why you wouldn't contact the company, um, before posting.So this has been single pro. This is our real-time news platform. It's behind the paywall. You have to pay for it, yada, yada yada. Okay. This is a newsfeed within the platform. This is just a newsfeed of headlines that we post look how many headlines we post. It is constant. And if you know anything about in the markets, you know, that all the news happens before the market opens and after the market closes.Okay. So I'm scrolling down here to last night because I just wanted to show you all. I still haven't gotten there yet. I'm trying to get to last night still. Haven't got, I want to show you all the frequency I'll here. I'm there. Okay. So we're at four. This is okay. 4:00 PM Eastern. That's where we are right now in the newsfeed.Look how many headlines we're posting after hours. Okay. It is the reason we have sec filings is to communicate this stuff to the public, right? We cannot be calling every single company to verify every single fact in every single AK or sec filing. We can't, it's not feasible. That's not how the stock market news ecosystem works, frankly.Right? You call the company when, uh, the, you know, there's a major unknown, and you're trying to figure out why, right? Or there's another report out there. And you want to, you want them to confirm or deny on the record. You do not call them about stuff. That's in the aid. K, because they're, if they'll just say, Hey, Hey, dummy, look at the damn filing.And they hang up the phone on you. That's what a company would do if we call them, Hey, excuse me, is, is, is the information in your filing, right? Oh, I'm not going to call a company and be like that. So. I just want to, I, I I'm, I'm gonna, I'm moving on here, but I thought it was a genuinely good question, right?Like, why don't we call the company because it's not feasible for anyone to do that. That's why, that's why, that's why we have to see filings in the first place. Right. Um, and again, I'll move on. I'm done. The stock was down before he posted it. I'm I'm, I'm done. I mean, I, I we've talked about this for like an hour at this point.So, um, so I hope, I hope we helped if you own the stock. Good luck genuinely. I'm not being like an asshole, like good luck. You know, you know, we have, Aaron has longs. I have, I own stocks. He, we all own different things, you know, in my case, most of the ETFs, our next guest has long positions. I hope everybody makes money.That's I hope everybody makes money on everything. Life is better that way, but. You know, there's two sides to every market, right? You got bowls and berries and that's what makes the market work. So, anyway, moving on, let's get, uh, Jessie, people talking about a lawsuit. They can, they can Sue if they want, they're not going to get anywhere, but they can do it.I mean, whatever helps you sleep at night when it lawsuit against PBIG against, I don't know, man, dude, do whatever. I mean, look, you know, what's funny is that we actually regained more than half of those losses from overnight. Like what, wait, what did we close out of the closed at 7 85? We oh, and we got down to, you know, the made $5 and we're now we're clearly in the sixties.We're like halfway back. So I don't know if I was long, the stock, I would be less upset now than I was last night. Zuckerberg don't come at me with, with that right now. You no, no, no, no, no. AB you don't learn. We tell you not to buy call options. Okay. But mark is changing the name of his whole company because of bad publicity.I'm not in that big of a piece. I mean, I bought some, I bought some options that I shouldn't have bought. That's the bottom line. I don't have to change the name of my whole company because of bad press. So Martin, I told you, I was worried about your own problems before you come at me. What are your months ago to stop buying call options.You're like, oh, okay. And then you, yeah, I'm up like damn up this week on call options. All right. Whatever. Uh, our next guest is here, Jessica Kaylor. We're going to, uh, let him run through some shots with us for a few minutes. So we're going to hang out. If you have a ticket that you want to discuss, that's not BBG.You preferably drop it on the chat. You know, we'll talk about it. RS is dropping. Wishing. There we can talk. My wish. Let's bring Jesse on now, Jesse. Hey man, you're on, he's on mute. Let's get him off of you though. For a second. There we go. Jesse, unmute yourself.I on the, on the bottom of the screen there, you see that. I think it's not it's on you. I can't, I can't do it.You have to unmute yourself on the bottom of the screen. There's that? Mute the microphone button on the bottom left. Yes. No. Okay. Well, while he's doing that, I still say, oh, now he's gone. Okay. Look at you. I see you back here in a second. In the meantime, uh, wanted to, uh, talk about Tesla for just a sec there.Port earnings tonight. Uh, let's take a look at the stock. This is the part where I disclosed that I have a long Tesla call. Would that expires? When is Friday? Whoa, wait, you didn't buy that yesterday. Did you know? I bought it today. That's the one that I was complaining that I can't close. Like I was up a couple of hundred bucks on it.Couldn't close it. Now I'm down in one 40. We got Jessie back. Sorry about that guys. Um, yeah, so I like lost the stream yard so I could not find it to get back to it. So I'm going to pull up my charts again and start sharing my screen. But how are we doing today? We don't know what we're doing. We're doing, I mean, it is, it's, it's a green to, I'm going to go to me because it's a green day, right?I mean, the SNPs are in the green and the NASDAQ. Cause I guess this image on the right, but the, you know, the Russell's green, how many green sectors do we have as opposed to red sector as let's take a look here, we've got, looks like. Come on computer. Why don't you work for me? Every sector in the, in the greening Sephora technology.So I'm in a good mood. Markets are up. Yeah, I think I'm feeling good. I mean, I'm, I'm really happy because I had some weird plays. I think you see it in the chat with some of the guys James and, um, easy we in the morning, pre-market we've been talking about the EDU plays and kind of go with the China over.Oh, you talking about that? I saw you talking about someone mentioned EDU, I guess it was you. Yeah, I don't trade a lot of small dollar, $50 eighties, but I mean, it was just sitting there at a dollar 80 and one day he was in there talking about the education and I was like, let's go in here and let's see what what's going on here.I was like, I'm just going to throw a thousand shares at it, just to see. And then it went to like 2 45. I'm like, how'd it half. And then today it was up like the 2 55 got out another two 50 and I'm like, I'm just gonna let the other two 50 play around and just see if it goes to $4 again. Cause this thing actually, you know, has been, um, performing, you know, pull up the real fast.But before, before I forget, I just want to plug something. Um, we're doing something that we don't normally do on our channel right now. We're actually doing two streams at the same time. Uh, our cannabis crew, our cannabis team, the crew that hosts our cannabis, our show, uh, their live in Vegas. They're alive in Vegas at MJ biz con uh, streaming live from the conference.Uh, if you're into cannabis and cannabis stocks, youtube.com/ I'll put the link in chat right now. Um, youtube.com/benzinga, but they're alive right now. So it's very rare for us to have two streams going at the same time. Um, I'm going to paste it in chat, but I just wanted to plug that. So let's get your charts back up on the screen.So we got EDU new Oriental education. This is a Chinese education stock that got rocked a few months ago. And you are now long, is that right? Well, it was a trade. It was more of a, I saw that they were consolidating down here in the eighties. And then I was like, you know what, I'm just going to take a flyer out.It was a tight stop loss, you know, like 30 cents, 20 cents. And then it just, every day I was doing well on it. We were kind of just getting excited, watching it go. And then it just broke out the last two days, in my opinion, um, you know, 30, 40 cents on a $2 stock is great. So a dollar stocks, um, but the one that I liked that I actually put in, I, I didn't buy much today, but I did buy some Footlocker and I don't think anyone's been talking about this.I think it's kind of just a sleepy, uh, took a $20 smack from that, the other and the sixties. And for me, it, it just seems like with the earnings and it's more of a, I guess, Bias position. Cause my, my family member is a very big collector of shoes and he kind of gave me some shoe insider information and he's like, man, Nike, he's like, I'm charging double for what I bought six months ago because the supply and demand is just so, um, it's so great right now for these specific types of shoes.And I think that going online, um, it has been a lot easier for people to find these shoes. They're actually being able to buy them because they're not having to drive to the store, go into the Footlocker, actually hope that the shoes on the shelf and their size, they can get online, they can buy them, they can get them quicker and have access to them.And I see that they've made their website and ordering process a lot easier. So it's kind of just one of those things where I like where they're at now. I know they're kind of on a downturn at this moment. I'd be crying, kind of calling a call on a 50% retracement from that previous move. If you look where they went from thirties to sixties, now we're getting in the forties 48, 45 in that range is kind of coming back down here.I think it's just going to be a good, a good time to enter here. And I, and I'm, I'm tight stop loss. Um, I put it right here at this lower channel, 46, uh, 25 is on my radar. So if it, if it alerts me and it gets down there and starts to fail there that I'm going to be out right here. So looking for 50, $52, I, I appreciate the technical aspect of it.Cause I have a hard time, you know, divorcing chart from the narrative and the narrative would be like. I'd be terrified of like supply chain problems. So, yeah. And, and I, and I get that. I get that, but I feel like it hasn't, I think that's going to be next quarter. I think that we're not hitting we're right there.I think there's going to be a, um, I know that you guys have been talking about it on a pre-market prep. I know that I'm feeling it when it comes to like inflation supply issues. When I go to the grocery store, I have young children, I have a lot of needs, different things that you're used to buying brands, things of that nature.And they're just not there. You know, there are certain things and I laughed at my wife. I said, you know what? I figured out that things were going bad is that they didn't have chocolate chip waffles. They had every other waffle in the, in the place. But that one, and I'm like, you know, it made me just as a joke.I, you know, jokingly, I told her, I said, what else is missing? You know, from the aisle, like, what's, what's going on? Like, what are you looking at? How many that you're not that I don't know, like feminine products that I may not be purchasing. So I've been researching them, um, as well. And, you know, looking into, you know, who's going to be hurt by this.Is it like shaving companies, uh, you know, razors, things like that, where people are, um, are they going to be going out and stocking up on these? So is it the opposite? You know, they're going to be a run-up and, um, bodily, uh, toiletries, you know, I think that there's going to be a big thing in toiletries that people are gonna be stuck, not just the food is like, everyone's worried about food and be.Well, we're all gonna be bearded men. Who was it? Who was it? Was it, um, oh shoot. I saw of headline go by to this morning. Was it Nestle? No, it wasn't Nestle. It's Tom, some big international, um, food slash consumer staple conglomerate. I have normally I don't remember who it was. I apologize said that they're not seeing consumers stockpiling.They're not observing that, but I don't remember who sent it though. Shoot, really? Uh, I may have a Nestle. Hold on. Um, uh, I don't, I don't remember who said it. I I'm sorry. No, um, I'm gonna hold it against you. Yeah. I don't know. You mentioned LVS this morning. That was on your radar. Yeah. In earnings tonight.What do you think? Um, what do you think here? Are you long? Are you, what are you saying is going to happen? So LVS is entirely a Macau play, right? You're you're not nothing to do with Las Vegas, nothing near or Las Vegas, right? It says Las Vegas in the name. No Las Vegas. When the company sold their Vegas, they're all in the, um, so that's all that matters.My understanding. Is so, um, we, uh, I listened to a podcast with someone who has lived in Macau for 20 years. Um, and if you, if you've been following the story a couple of months ago, the Chinese government basically came out and said, Hey, we, we, we think we want to like exert more control over all the casinos in Macau.And every casino stock, like took a shit on that. Right. Almost was like a Sans. When you see in the chart, um, what this guy from who's lived in Macau said was he, wasn't totally surprised by it. And I think people's worst fears were that, oh, like, they're just gonna like kneecap the, these casinos. Right. And he, this guy, he was like, basically not, we don't see that being the case.Um, I don't know where Macau stands as far as reopening goes. And like, Qur'an, COVID, I have absolutely no idea if they're better or worse than we are in the U S I know they're much more prone to go into lockdown, but I don't, I don't know where they stand right now. Um, so it seems like the, look, the initial move back, the chart look all ugly, but it, I guess, I, I don't know enough about it to like, want to like stick my neck out and say, oh, it won't be, it won't be, uh, you know, I buy the casinos here.I won't buy them here, but similar to Alibaba ways, this is still the LVS chart. So similar to Alibaba where like, you could look at the chart and say, okay, this looks a little bit silly here is it really, is it really. Should it deserve to be down here. I think there's a case to be made for, for LVS here too.You're like, should, should it really be down here is I think a fair question to ask and I agree. So I'm really big on these. When I see these moves on the chart where you see, okay, it has a day where it should never been at $2 and 53 cents. I wish we were talking about it there together. And then we would be probably buying a whole bunch together, but, um, let's see how it moves up.It, it goes all the way up here to $54 hangs out and then it blasts off. So this is the move I care about. I don't really care about this one here. I care about how it, how it treated $34. It loved this area and it blasts off up here to 90 and came all the way back and then blast off, came all the way back and then not as much of a move to the upside.Uh, we didn't make another high and it hasn't done that each time. Every time it came here, it's made a lower high, if you noticed. So maybe a play to like 52, even though that sounds crazy, but to play to 52, doesn't seem outrageous right now to me. Um, and you have a short stop-loss right here at 32 16, somewhere around there.Keep you give yourself a couple bucks to the downside. I mean, you're looking for a big play to the upside. This is a longer term play. This isn't something that I would say is going to happen overnight. But even if you were to take a flyer on this and they get somewhat of decent earnings. You're going to get a dollar popper.So, you know, maybe in my opinion, that that's easily done on a stock like this, but if it breaks out or breaks down to the downside, you don't have support. It looks like until maybe some key, um, option levels like 25, 30, 35, you know, $5 intervals to the downside, probably. So, yeah. Um, wait, hold the, I, I missed this.I was busy preparing for the streaming stuff, so I did not see this until the charges alerted me to a thanks is Dr. Berg. Um, you would know about this PayPal reportedly is exploring and enjoying a purchase of Pinterest. Can you pull, put poor pins, pull a or art that works through PayPal on pins, Bloomberg reported that PayPal and Pinterest discussed, um, taking Pinterest over for $70 a share hold.I'm not sure. I, I get the synergies there, but it doesn't really matter. I guess they don't care. So Pinterest was halted. It's out of a hot now, right? Yep. That wa

Study after study has shown that picking stocks that turn out to be winners is an exceedingly difficult task, with very little consistency in performance over time. Thus, the common refrain of "Past results are no indication of future returns". But what if instead of trying to pick likely winners, you instead screen out the potential losers from your portfolio? GraniteShares Founder and CEO Will Rhind had just this thought, which he decided to put into action late last year. He rejoins Let's Talk ETFs to discuss his firm's newest strategy, The GraniteShares X-OUT U.S. Large Cap ETF (XOUT). XOUT takes the largest 500 U.S. companies by market cap and runs them through a series of screens meant to single out companies demonstrating the least adaptability in the current age of technological disruption. The bottom 250 U.S. large cap stocks are thus removed from XOUT's portfolio, with the screen re-run and the portfolio rebalanced quarterly. And while past results are certainly no guarantee of future results, the fund has garnered strong investor interest out of the gate. Show Notes 3:15 - What's the basic underlying strategy of the fund? 6:15 - How is the index constructed? How do you exclude the losers? 9:00 - How did you arrive at your 7 selection criteria? 11:00 - Why do you reshuffle the index quarterly? 12:30 - Story behind the design of the strategy 17:15 - Will this strategy be able to predict a shift from growth to value? 21:30 - Sector weighting. Does the overweight on healthcare and IT cause any concerns? 27:30 - Why aren't Verizon and AT&T included? 31:30 - How does the exclusion of some financial services companies reflect on the industry? 34:30 - "Fun" pairs trades of rivals based on which is in and out of the index: Coke vs. Pepsi, Visa vs. Mastercard, Walmart vs. Costco, State Street vs. BlackRock 36:30 - Why a large position in QQQ? 38:45 - Strategy behind HIPS ETF 44:45 - What's the rate risk with HIPS?

Once he got a taste, Will Rhind became addicted to start-ups - and lucky for Will, he's good at them. After going from 30 to 360 million in 10 months, Will's start-up Granite Shares was named ETF issuer of the year. This week, the CEO and founder sits down with Adam to talk about his strategies, and what he makes of the hectic market.
William Rhind is the Founder and CEO of GraniteShares, an exchange-traded fund company based in New York City. In 2016, Will Rhind challenged himself to find a way to do things differently. As a 16-year veteran of the ETF industry with experience working at, building and running, well-established successful ETF businesses, he made a keen observation: investing just isn't as exciting as it once was. Will asked himself is how do you bring back that excitement? As an experienced entrepreneur, he decided to answer that question by launching his own ETF company - GraniteShares was born. Will's focus on disrupting the financial industry has taken GraniteShares from an idea to a successful start-up garnering the attention of Bain Capital and other well-known ETF investors who support his passion to create products that will change the way people see investing. Will spends his time outside of GraniteShares with his wife and three children. He's on the Board of Directors of the Bath University Foundation, has a passion for classic cars, Manchester United, and travel - especially back to his roots in Aberdeen, Scotland, “The Granite City”. “Don't wait, what I mean by that is that when I look back on my career, while I'm incredibly fortunate to be doing what I'm doing, at some level I maybe could have branched out on my own sooner and there are really no good reasons as to why there's never a perfect time to set up your own business. I sometimes say to people don't over think it, just get on with it there's never a perfect time”…[Listen for More] Click Here for Show Notes To Listen or to Get the Show Notes go to https://wp.me/p6Tf4b-6BU
Will Rhind joins Kate on the show today to have a candid conversation about commodities. Will is Founder and CEO of GraniteShares, an ETF company. GraniteShares from an idea to a successful start-up garnering the attention of Bain Capital and other well-known ETF investors who support his passion to create products that will change the way people see investing. Will is a graduate of the University of Bath, in England, with a Bachelor of Arts in French, Russian, Politics and Economics. He has spent 17 years in the ETF industry, which began with iShares. He then transitioned to ETF Securities, and lastly, became the CEO of GLD before founding GraniteShares. Will has worked with both European and US ETF Markets, has a wealth of experience under his belt, and is an entrepreneur working hard to disrupt the financial industry with a start-up that’s gaining success. Listen to today’s episode to find out more! Show Highlights: Will discusses how GraniteShares focuses on commodities and high income passthrough securities. Will defines commodities as the most economically significant and most traded commodities in the world. Ie. energy market, agriculture market, metals market and food market. Will further tells us that this works by not investing in commodity companies, but in commodities themselves. Will says these can pair nicely complement to a portfolio. Both COMB and COMG funds pull from a different pool of assets than those of stocks or bonds. The COMB and COMG funds seek to do the same thing, which is to provide commodity exposure at a low cost and tax efficient manner to investors. Will says the main difference between the two funds is that the COMB is a more diversified fund and the COMG has more exposure to oil and energy. To break it down further, Will says the investment will be 80% in Treasury Bonds, and the shares/holdings are held in a subsidiary company, which eliminates the K1 at tax time. Will explains the cap of exposure you can get with the COMB fund. Will addressee why, at times, exchange traded funds underform. Will explains how his company fits into various portfolios based on diversification. Longer-term plans vs. shorter-term investing is explained by Will. Will explains how approachable his company is, and encourages investors to reach out to anyone on his team.
