Podcasts about Wool

Stepping beyond America's borders might be the smartest move for savvy investors right now. Phil Wool of Raliant Capital makes a compelling case for international equities—particularly emerging markets—at a time when U.S. stocks trade at historically high valuations.The numbers tell a striking story: U.S. equities currently command a Shiller-CAPE ratio of 38 times earnings—three standard deviations above historical averages. While this doesn't predict an imminent crash, it strongly suggests lower-than-average returns over the next decade. Meanwhile, international markets offer better growth prospects at more attractive valuations.Wool challenges the oversimplified narrative that international stocks have performed well this year solely because of dollar weakness. He highlights how emerging markets contain significant technology exposure, with many companies either competing with or supplying critical components to U.S. tech giants driving the AI revolution. This mirrors patterns from the dot-com era, when companies supplying internet infrastructure in emerging markets ultimately outperformed many headline-grabbing U.S. names.For investors concerned about selecting winners in unfamiliar markets, Raliant's "quantamental" approach offers a solution. Their systematic strategies analyze billions of data points to identify companies with strong fundamentals flying under the radar. They incorporate market-specific factors that pure fundamental investors might miss, like foreign institutional investor holdings in South Korea or retail investor behavior in Taiwan.Recent trade policy developments, including the Japan-U.S. trade agreement, demonstrate how market overreactions to political theater create opportunities for patient investors focused on fundamentals. These dislocations generate alpha for systematic strategies that can identify when stocks have unreasonably discounted good news or failed to properly price in positive developments.Ready to diversify globally? Consider using the ACWI as your benchmark, with approximately 60% in U.S. stocks and 15% in emerging markets—then adjust based on current valuations and opportunities. With today's pronounced valuation disparities, overweighting international exposure might be the prudent choice for investors seeking both diversification and potential outperformance in the coming years.

Clara Parkes became many knitters' guiding light and best friend when she launched Knitter's Review in 2000. One of the early standouts in the early online knitting landscape, the site developed a devoted following for its in-depth, objective yarn reviews and lively forums. Several years after the site's inception, she began writing books, starting with The Knitter's Book of Yarn, which was followed by The Knitter's Book of Wool and The Knitter's Book of Socks. As she explored the yarn industry, Clara carefully maintained a journalist's independence, taking readers along with her as she learned how the yarns we love come to be. After her first three books, which were large-format, full-color, and featured a number of designs, her following works have been memoirs of her literal and metaphorical travels or in-depth narratives reporting about the yarn world. In 2012, she launched the Great White Bale, a combination small-batch yarn experiment and behind-the-scenes tour of the remaining American wool industry, for which she purchased a very special bale of wool and reported on its progress through the process of becoming yarn. In recent years, she has created several online communities: The Wool Channel, which is devoted to celebrating wool, and The Daily Respite, which offers a moment of wonder and calm each morning. Clara invites knitters and readers to join her in exploring the ways in which wool is a force for good in the world, and how crafters can join in its support.

About 1,000 yards of 3-ply worsted weight yarn. Cheviot Top: Finished! 8 oz braid of Cheviot Top in hot pink. Have 572 yards of 2-ply fingering weight. Socks: Using Patons Kroy sock in the colorway Blue Striped Ragg. Finished first sock and halfway down leg of second. Spacetime 18: Heidi Kirrmaier. Using my handspun Flowers From My Garden. On hold. Simple Shawl by Jane Hunter. Using my Into the Whirled handspun. Rag Rugs: I put the warp on the loom and threaded the heddles. Now I need to thread the reed, and sew fabric strips together. I plan to make two 24”x36” rugs. Deer Scarf: Ben and his roommates rescued a concrete deer lawn ornaments. I am making a red scarf for the deer to wear this holiday. Brought on an overnight trip and had my friend Sue knit on the scarf. Weaving Studio: It's a work in progress.  Kelly's Projects Fireweed Sock sock two is still in the leg. Worked on it while the handspun sweater was in a time out!  I am back to working on the Lace and Fade Boxy by Joji Locatelli. I'm using a merino silk handspun along with a skein of Sincere Sheep Vernal (silk/linen). I had a mistake in the lace pattern somehow because my stitch counts got off so I ripped back about 4 inches and am back on track. Finished spinning the 2018 CVM that I've been carding since November. Total yardage isn't calculated, but I spun almost 700 g (1.5 lbs) of yarn. I have three colors. Dark and medium blue-green and then a red-purple. They were all dyed with the same dyes and the colors were blended in the batts.  Combing the remaining CVM. I have two-pitch wool combs from Red Barn Farm from long ago. I had about 1.5 lbs left of the fleece that I plan to comb. So far I have about 120 g of combed top. I timed myself to see how long it took to comb an ounce (28 g) of fiber. It took about 45 minutes and I got 4 balls (about 14 g) of combed top. Slow process with lots of waste. But the fiber is really nice! Washing Ernest. First time processing merino. Very greasy. Six 1 lb batches. Overnight cold soak of the whole fleece. Two very hot washes in a pot on a burner using Dawn. Two very hot rinses. Still greasy. Two batches got an extra wash and seem a little felted.  International Tour de Fleece YouTube binge: Mijn Wolden: Jente spins and dyes mostly local Belgian wool. She does all the fiber crafts with her handspun. Etienne is somewhere in Québec. He spins on a Canadian production wheel.  Also watched Knitting with Ève (Montreal) and Piiamt (Estonia) Tour de Fleece content.  Summer Spin In  Now until September 1.

It's the business equivalent of sporting's yellow card - a New Zealand wool company putting out an open letter to New Zealand rugby about the acrylic beanies that are made overseas. Norsewear posted on social media saying die hard fans had contacted them upset once they had realised their beanies were "synthetic, offshore imports". This lead the company to ask why our sporting legends don't wear the fabric our Kiwi identity is wrapped up in. Norsewear owner Tim Deane spoke to Melissa Chan-Green.

What topic would you like us to cover next?What does it take to market an iconic British agricultural product in today's digital world? Graham Clark, Director of Marketing at British Wool, pulls back the curtain on the fascinating journey of promoting this sustainable fiber to modern consumers.British Wool stands as the last remaining farmers' cooperative in the UK, representing approximately 30,000 sheep farmers across the nation. Unlike conventional businesses, this unique organization returns all profits directly to farmers, supporting rural communities while championing sustainability. Graham shares how they've navigated the complex challenge of communicating their distinctive identity to consumers who often don't understand the difference between "wool" and "British wool."The conversation takes us through British wool's remarkable versatility beyond just clothing. Did you know the iconic upholstery on London Underground seating is made from British wool in Yorkshire? Or that wool bedding naturally regulates your body temperature while you sleep? These practical applications highlight wool's superiority over synthetic alternatives, which Graham pointedly reminds us are essentially plastic.We explore how British Wool has built brand awareness through innovative campaigns, including collaborations with Love Island's Farmer Will and Shaun the Sheep. Their marketing strategy balances traditional channels like radio with contemporary digital approaches, resulting in measurable success brand recognition has increased 7% in recent years, with nearly a third of consumers now recognizing their iconic "crook mark" logo.The episode also delivers honest reflections on marketing mishaps, from printing 50,000 high-quality brochures with the wrong phone number to mail merge disasters that sent customers competitors' information. These candid stories remind us that even seasoned marketers make mistakes, it's how we respond and learn that matters.Listen now to discover how this legacy brand is fighting fast fashion while supporting local farmers.

The global investment landscape is shifting as international markets gain momentum despite lingering trade tensions. After years of US stock dominance creating stretched valuations, investors are increasingly looking abroad for more reasonably priced opportunities with similar growth potential.Phil Wool, Chief Research Officer at Rayliant, makes a compelling case for emerging markets as fertile ground for active management strategies. Markets like Taiwan, South Korea, and China feature 80-90% retail trading volume, creating inefficiencies that systematic approaches can exploit by targeting strong fundamentals and positive sentiment.One of the most overlooked aspects of emerging markets is their substantial technology exposure. South Korea's market comprises roughly 50% tech stocks yet trades at just 10x forward earnings—compared to the S&P 500's 23x. Taiwan's market is approximately 75% tech-focused but remains more affordable than US indices. These markets offer exposure to companies building critical components for data centers and AI infrastructure that often don't receive the same attention as the Magnificent Seven.Japan represents another intriguing opportunity with its broad market featuring limited analyst coverage beyond top companies. After decades of deflation and stagnation, Japan is experiencing an economic inflection point with normalizing monetary policy and significant corporate governance reforms unlocking previously trapped value.For investors concerned about international risk, Wool notes that much potential downside is already priced into these markets, unlike US equities where the recent recovery suggests investors may be underestimating lingering uncertainties. While emerging markets carry additional geopolitical and governance risks, these create opportunities for disciplined active managers who can identify well-governed companies.The evolution toward sophisticated multi-factor frameworks has transformed international investing. Rather than relying on traditional value or growth tilts alone, advanced systematic strategies now incorporate diverse signals including market-specific factors accounting for local regulations and institutions—particularly valuable when navigating diverse global markets with varying characteristics.Ready to explore international opportunities?

There's a clever new marketing ploy from a Wanaka fashion designer. ‘The Precious Collaborative' are selling $10,000 coats in order to subsidise New Zealand wool products in their store. The profits of the coats are able to discount a once $700 item to under $200 – the aim to put quality NZ wool items within the average person's reach. Founder Claire O'Connell told Mike Hosking that by purchasing the coat, people are supporting so much within the country – from the strong wool industry right through to local production. So far two people have bought the $10,000 coat, and O'Connell says that since then they've sold almost 100 garments, of which 85% were bought at the discounted price.

Today, we meet up with John Garcia of Dancing Sun Farm.  We were able to grab a moment of conversation with him at the lively meetup known as Texas Wool Week, held in the wild weather days of March at Sheepwalk Ranch in Bandera.  Cold, wind, sun, warmth – we had it all.  After all, this IS Texas.After 29 years in the U.S. Army, John began his second career in service, but this time to contribute to America's food and fiber systems.  He and his family raise sheep, goats and chickens in the lovely, lonely, beautiful area known as Texas Hill Country.  We hope you enjoy our conversation about endings and beginnings, his second life, and the programs and support systems that helped him on his way.Links:www.TexasWoolWeek.comwww.TheSheepwalkRanch.comhttps://www.facebook.com/Dancing.Sun.Farm.NM PodMatchPodMatch Automatically Matches Ideal Podcast Guests and Hosts For InterviewsSupport the show

Episode 117: In this conversation, Kate sits down with Cutter Wood to discuss his new book Earthly Materials: Journeys Through Our Bodies' Emissions, Excretions, and Disintegrations. It's a poignant and touching exploration of the often-overlooked aspects of our physical being: our body's "effluvia." From the science of mucus to our last breath, from our tears to our flatulence, Cutter delves into the interconnectedness of bodily materials and how these substances reflect our shared vulnerability, humanity, and care for one another. These substances are sometimes hidden for reasons of sanitation, but also because they remind us of our fragility and mortality, which means—this is also a podcast abut death. Cutter brings humor, depth, and honesty to his exploration of the body's excretions and emissions, reminding us that these “leaky meat suits” are also what connect us.

Ever wondered how mechanical textile recycling actually works? What shoddy and mungo is, and why we called it that? What the rag n' bone man collected back in the day and how the trade grew up, then scaled back? And what it will take to bring it back and keep what's already here, going?Wonder no more! John Parkinson has a masterclass for you, complete with magic and secrets. For 200 years, Yorkshire made recycled wool cloth for the world. But don't think its all disappeared. John's mill in Huddersfield is aptly called iinouiio - an acronym for It Is Never Over Until It Is Over. With centuries of accumulated of skill and knowledge, they're doing what they always did, only better.Find all the links & further reading at thewardrobecrisis.comTell us what you think?
