As 2026 enters its final third, investors face an unusual combination of strong market fundamentals and several potential sources of volatility. In this episode, Tony Zabiegala and Derek Gabrielsen examine what has supported the market so far, including broader market participation, a rotation from growth toward value, and earnings and revenue growth. They also consider what could challenge that outlook, including Federal Reserve uncertainty, the midterm elections, geopolitical developments, energy prices, and the possibility that current earnings strength represents an unusually favorable environment. The conversation emphasizes diversification, appropriate risk tolerance, and maintaining a disciplined investment plan rather than reacting to momentum or attempting to move in and out of the market.
SMALL BUSINESS FINANCE– Business Tax, Financial Basics, Money Mindset, Tax Deductions
The money in your business bank account is not always yours to spend. In this episode, Tiffany shares how one business owner confused cash with profit—and nearly ran out of money after taking large owner draws. A hidden $68,500 tax bill and penalty left her business with a dangerously small cash cushion. You'll learn the three numbers every owner should track: total cash, committed cash, and truly available cash. Tiffany also explains how to build a tax reserve, update estimated tax payments, and review smart year-end moves. These practical tax planning and cash flow lessons can help you make better money decisions and protect your business finance. Before you transfer another dollar, listen to this episode.

Finish strong and prepare for Q4! The Auman's discuss the transition from a chaotic, "hamster wheel" business model to a structured, system-driven enterprise. Caleb introduces his new "Built for Contractors" mentorship program, which focuses on providing scalable processes and accountability for hardscaping professionals. They emphasize the importance of financial clarity and the courage to fire underperforming service providers to ensure long-term growth. They also review seven critical end-of-year metrics, including profitability, labor efficiency, and backlog management, to help listeners prepare for the fourth quarter. Key Takeaways: Implement structured, scalable systems in both the office and the field instead of relying solely on hard work to escape the endless business hamster wheel. Embrace "clarity is kindness" by letting go of service providers, partners, or employees who aren't performing or communicating well so they have the chance to improve elsewhere. Calculate your true revenue per hour by dividing your gross invoiced revenue by the total paid hours to quickly spot gaps in your estimating and crew production rates. Proactively map out your remaining weeks of capacity and backlog in the fourth quarter to build a realistic schedule that successfully lands the plane by year-end. Begin squirreling away cash and aligning on winter expectations with your financial advisor during the busy season so you can afford to retain your crew during the colder months.

In this episode of WSJ's Take On the Week, co-host Telis Demos is joined by guest co-host and Wall Street Journal reporter David Uberti to break down the Federal Reserve's latest moves, and what oil's volatile pricing—exacerbated by the U.S.-Iran conflict—might mean for inflation and the Fed going forward. Then, BCA Research's chief commodities strategist Roukaya Ibrahim joins the show to break down what's behind oil's volatile pricing. They discuss what current geopolitical tensions mean for oil and whether recent inventory data suggests a looming supply crunch. Plus, Ibrahim explains why the traditional link between gold and inflation has fractured, and how oil price shocks may impact the Fed.

Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA Research says investors should "be prepared for some additional volatility" at least until and through the midterm elections, but he thinks it represents "a reason to buy, not to bail." Stovall says that he's looking for solid double-digit earnings growth into 2027, and he makes the case that the technology sector has been driving the market higher but remains trading at a relative discount in price/earnings ratio. Traditional summer market doldrums, therefore, set up chances to profit from a rally he expects once the voting is done. Further, he points to the market's expanded breadth which, when combined with a positive first half of the year, historically is a sign that the market will rise over the rest of the year. Stovall's big worry for the economy and market involves the Federal Reserve and the potential for higher rates to lead to stagflation and other condition changes, but he's not expecting the Fed to move rates this year, so he thinks those worries are further into the future. Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, has focused a lot of his recent ETF of the Week picks on actively managed funds, but today he goes with a hot fund based on a technology-heavy index as something that would work well for investors who expect the market's uptrend to continue. In the Market Call, Manny Weintraub, principal at Cannell & Spears, talks about how he finds "super great stocks that are not going to kill you" and whether stocks in the hottest sectors are being set up to murder investors when market conditions and sentiments change.

The year is not over — but it is moving. In part one of the Mid-Year Money Check-In, Shari looked at cash flow, cash reserves, savings, investing, retirement accounts, and whether your money is actually doing what you want it to do. Now in part two, we are looking ahead. Because a lot of financial stress does not come from true surprises. It comes from predictable things that did not have a plan. Taxes. Holiday spending. Travel. Family obligations. Home projects. Insurance premiums. Lifestyle creep. Charitable giving. Year-end decisions. The things you keep saying you will deal with later. In this episode, Shari walks through the second half of your mid-year strategy check-in so you can stop letting predictable expenses, vague goals, and delayed decisions sneak up on you. This is not about budgeting because you are broke. This is about lifestyle planning because your life costs money — and your money deserves direction. You'll learn: Why tax planning should not wait until next spring What to review before year-end if your income, bonus, business revenue, or investments changed How to plan for upcoming expenses before they become stressful Why predictable expenses feel chaotic when you keep pretending they are surprises How lifestyle creep shows up when your defaults quietly get more expensive Why being able to afford something does not automatically mean it is the best use of your money How to revisit your January goals without shame Why a goal that no longer fits your life is not a moral obligation How to choose one to three financial priorities for the rest of the year The goal is not to fix everything in one sitting. The goal is to create visibility, make one or two stronger decisions, and stop letting the lack of a decision become the decision. Money should not just accumulate, disappear, or sit there because you are unsure what to do next. Money should be a tool that helps you live life on your terms.

Jeffrey Bierman, chief market technician at TheoTrade — where he runs the Genesis Cog and Burn Signal platforms — says the stock market remains "ridiculously strong," but that won't allow it to sidestep a summer slowdown and a difficult fall, before picking back up with a tremendous rally near the end of the year. He makes it clear that current conditions are not looking like a bear market or a bubble, and while the market has gotten a bit ahead of itself, he's thinking it's mostly choppy with maybe a small setback before it starts the next leg up. David Leiter, who runs The Ultimate Investor website, discusses his new book, "Stop Making Stupid Investments," and gives his take on everything from initial public offerings — and pre-IPO investments — to cryptocurrency and more, and focuses on the emotional control that helps investors avoid the key blunders that can bring a portfolio crashing down. In the Market Call, Max Wasserman, co-founder and senior portfolio manager at Miramar Capital, talks about how everyone is jumping so hard into technology stocks that it's "hard to find a great company at a good price." He discusses where he is finding the right valuations for his dividend-driven investment style, and what kinds of companies fit his long-term buying perspective now.

Victoria Fernandez, chief market strategist at Crossmark Global Investments, says that she is expecting the market to suffer some late summer doldrums as seasonal economic impacts end and mid-term elections put their traditional damper on enthusiasm, but that there will be some support for the market near year's end, making for "a positive year, but nothing like we've seen in the last two years." She acknowledges that makes her forecast a bit more sour than many observers, but says she thinks the market is showing signs of rotating and broadening out, and that change will slow down stock gains. Also contributing to that will be continued economic uncertainty; Fernandez does not expect a recession, but noted that stagflation could be hard to avoid if inflation gets higher and stickier and the War in Iran continues past the end of this month. In the Market Call, Chuck Carlson, chief executive officer at Horizon Investment Services — which publishes "The Best Dividend and Income Investments" newsletter — discusses the firm's analytical system, called Quadrix, for sizing up a wide range of factors, and notes that a lot of the stocks that have been leading the way have fundamentals that should allow them to keep going strong from here, regardless of the broad economic storm clouds that are making many investors nervous. Plus, Chuck answers a question from a listener who thinks his strategy of trying to make his baby grandson a millionaire in 65 years is "just showing off," because "Really, how much will a million dollars be worth then?"

Every year I finish the homeschool year kinda lackluster. And you know what? I’m good with that. I recognize it for what it is: a season. That’s exactly why I do a Homeschool Year End Review — and why I think every homeschool mom should too. Because, seriously, what are the chances I’m gonna love every dang minute of this homeschool thing? And when else would I feel homeschool fatigue? At the end of the homeschool year! (Oh, and February, cause ya know: slump month…Oh, and usually about year two or three of our homeschool journey when I need to have a giant shift from “how I thought homeschool would be” to “how homeschool actually is”…Anywho, I digress…) In this post, you’ll discover my approach to the Homeschool Year-End Review — and how it sets you up to actually enjoy your summer instead of dreading September. Finish your year with a Homeschool Mom Year-End Review https://youtu.be/z_GP9smtgBM?si=g3MIJgKK-OpAh_RI Join me for a Homeschool Mom Year-End Review. Finish Your Year With a Homeschool Mom Year End Review If we do a homeschool year end review now, I don’t have to return to it in July. I can sit by my watering hole of choice and not think about homeschool planning. By the end of May, I usually close the homeschool room door and don’t return till early July. I let stuff sit.The books get closed.The planner gets closed.And we just shift into a season of being outdoors. And you know what? We all need it after that point. A chance to recollect our ideas about last year, check what worked, check what didn’t, and springboard into the new year with ideas that did work and new ideas I want to include. If you’re there and want to springboard — join me at the Homeschool Year End Review. Join the Homeschool Year End Review Real Planning for Real Homeschool Moms: Why the Year-End Review Works Are you wrapping up your homeschool year? Even in my most traditional homeschool years, I’ve always wrapped things up by the end of May. Typically at the beginning of June, I’d bring the kids outside to sit, draw, read some poetry, write some poetry, narrate a Shakespeare play, learn Latin names for native plants, learn the name of cloud formations, and identify animal scat. (AKA harnessing my inner Charlotte Mason — although I don’t think she ever mentions animal scat, ha.) It’s also the time of year I assessed my past homeschool year and used that as a brainstorming tool to imagine my upcoming homeschool year. It was fresh on my mind! That’s why I created a Year End Review for you — a group coaching opportunity. If you want to do your homeschool and your life on purpose, you need regular breaks from the same-ole same-ole to check how it’s working for you and your kids. (Or if it’s not.) Three Things Your Homeschool Year-End Review Should Cover Over the years I’ve learned that a meaningful year-end review isn’t just about curriculum or schedules. It goes deeper. Here are the three areas that matter most. 1. Is your homeschool plan still working for this season? This is the question most of us are afraid to ask honestly — because what if the answer is no? A plan that fit beautifully two years ago can quietly become the thing that’s exhausting you today. Not because you failed. Because your season changed. Your kids grew. Your family shifted. Life happened. And if this year didn’t go the way you hoped — that gap between your vision and your reality deserves to be acknowledged. Maybe even grieved a little. Because when we skip that step and jump straight to “okay, new plan!” we carry the weight of disappointment straight into next year. The first part of a good year-end review is giving yourself permission to look honestly at what happened, release the expectations that were never realistic, and ask: what actually fits our life right now? Need a starting point for your planning? Homeschool Planning for Four Kids: Our Sixth Year walks through exactly how I’ve approached this in real life. 2. Where is your time really going — and does it match what matters? Here’s a question I love to sit with during my Homeschool Year-End Review: Is how I’m spending my time actually aligned with what I say I value? Because most of us are busy. Very busy. But busy doing what, exactly? When we slow down and look at where our time is actually going, we often discover a gap between our values and our daily reality. A time-and-values check-in isn’t about guilt. It’s about awareness. Once you can see where your energy is going, you can make intentional choices about where it goes next year. 3. How does homeschool mom life actually feel — and can it feel better? This one is the one we skip most often. Because we’re so used to asking how our kids are doing that we forget to ask the same about ourselves. How are you doing? Not your homeschool. Not your curriculum. The question isn’t about your kids’ progress. It’s about you. Are you enjoying this? Does homeschool feel like something flowing from you — or something running over you? Because when a homeschool mom is depleted and disconnected, the whole family feels it. And no curriculum swap in the world will fix that. This part of the Homeschool Year End Review is about reconnecting with yourself — with who you are beyond the role of homeschool mom, and what it would look like to actually enjoy the life you’ve built. If that question is sitting heavy on you right now, you might also want to read: Are You Homeschooling Good Enough? What We’ll Explore in the Homeschool Year-End Review Together In the Year-End Review workshop, we’ll chat about: What worked for you this year — and what didn’t What worked for each of your kids — and what didn’t And what you learned about your kids this year What you learned about yourself — and how you’re addressing that How you record and acknowledge the learning, growth, books read, and things done this year The hard moments you don’t want to repeat — and how to address them next year What your vision words are for next year How you used your resources, time, and skills this past year How you’ve contributed to the world — and how you want to What to Expect at the Homeschool Mom Year-End Review Here’s what we’ll do together in our two hours: Rethink your homeschool plan for 2026/2027 — and release what no longer fits your season Audit how your time and energy are really being used Reconnect with how homeschool mom life feels — and how to make it better Design a personalized Burnout Prevention Plan Explore child-inspired learning approaches Create a Y.O.U.

Not blank pages to figure out later. Bring your journal and a pen. Come without the kids. You’ll receive personal coaching feedback during and after the session. Save Your Seat → What You’ll Leave With After the Homeschool Year End Review Clarity & confidence about your 2026/2027 homeschool year An updated home education plan that fits this season A personalized Burnout Prevention Plan Personal wellness practices that fit your real life A Y.O.U. Plan — because your identity matters too The Wellness Journal for Homeschool Mamas The Homeschool Mama Vision Planner Kind Words “Before the Year-End Review session with Teresa, I felt overwhelmed and exhausted — even thinking about planning next year filled me with dread. After just that one conversation, I walked away feeling confident, hopeful, and clear. Teresa’s kindness, understanding, and gentle guidance saved me so much indecision and stress. If you’re a homeschool mom feeling stretched thin or unsure where to begin — this is the support you didn’t know you needed.” — Jen, homeschool mom of 3 Ready for a more personalized conversation?

On this episode of What Did We Learn, Josh Brown sits down with Nick Colas and Jessica Rabe of DataTrek Research to discuss why Big Tech has just 12 months to prove AI is worth the cost. Nick breaks down how Amazon, Alphabet, and Meta Platforms have dramatically shifted their business models pouring 100% (or more) of cash flow into AI capex as margins are set to decline in 2026. These three companies make up 11% of the S&P 500, and they are not the same high-margin machines they were just a few years ago. Jessica then shows where investors are reallocating capital, comparing the S&P to the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index. With non-U.S. stocks gaining traction, investors have a clear choice: stick with Big Tech's AI bet or look elsewhere. This episode is sponsored by Teucrium.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump announces that the U.S. America has launched “Operation Hawkeye Strike” in Syria after ISIS ambushed and killed two of our soldiers and an interpreter. Trump promised overwhelming retaliation—and he's delivering—sending jets, helicopters, and artillery to wipe out ISIS fighters and their infrastructure. This is real leadership: when you kill Americans, you pay the price. Also, Ukraine drones blew up a Russian oil tanker. For all the talk of Ukraine losing this war, they are putting up a fight. Ukraine is on the offense! Later, America was founded by Christians—all delegates at the Constitutional Convention and Second Continental Congress were Christian—and Christianity is a tolerant, and humane faith enabling religious minorities to live freely. The Declaration of Independence's references to God stem from Judeo-Christian values, with Christianity heavily influenced by Judaism, as recognized by the founders; modern efforts, like those by Tucker Carlson, to separate the two are a new attack on both Jews and Christians, repudiated as blasphemy by pastors. Americanism is fundamentally incompatible with Islamism. There's an alliance between leftists and Islamists driven by a shared goal of destroying the West, America, its Constitution, and republican system. Afterward, America owes its greatness to the Republican Party, which ended slavery and passed civil rights acts that Democrats wrongly claim credit for, rooted in foundational principles called constitutional conservatism. Without it, the nation would be an awful, dark, lawless place. The party fights to secure borders, promote assimilation, teach true history (good, bad, and ugly), and elect conservatives who embrace national ideals, leading to better quality of life in free states compared to dying blue ones. However, internal threats like Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes, and Steve Bannon seek to destroy the Republican Party—not just its establishment—and its Judeo-Christian foundations, abandoning the legacy of Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Coolidge, Eisenhower, Reagan, and Trump, without specifying a replacement.

Wrap up the year with laughs and jaw-dropping pop culture moments as Chris Franjola dives into the wildest stories of 2025. We break down the shocking Rob Reiner murder headlines, react to Katy Perry going to space, and unpack the nonstop buzz around a possible Taylor Swift engagement. The conversation also hits the Wicked cast chaos and the year's most controversial figure, Diddy. Dark, absurd, and hilarious, this year-end review covers it all with zero filters and plenty of laughs. -Save 20% Off Honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/JUICY #honeylovepod -Download Cash App Today: https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/9l268n36 #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.
