Is 2026 shaping up to be the most compelling year for short-term rental investing since the post-pandemic boom? In this episode of The STR Data Lab, AirDNA Chief Economist Jamie Lane and co-host Scott Sage break down the newly released 2026 Best Places to Invest report — and explain why smart investors may finally see the odds shifting back in their favor.After several challenging years marked by high home prices, rising interest rates, and uneven STR performance, the data is starting to tell a more optimistic story. Jamie walks through the core metrics behind AirDNA's rankings — including investability, demand momentum, revenue growth, and regulatory viability — and explains why yield, not hype, is driving today's best opportunities. The result? A list that favors overlooked small and mid-sized cities, infrastructure-driven demand, and markets where affordability still creates room for returns.The conversation also explores how investors can tailor their strategy using price-tier analysis and demand drivers like universities, national parks, and major infrastructure projects. Rather than chasing “vacation-only” destinations, this episode challenges listeners to rethink what makes a strong STR market — and how to build a repeatable investment thesis using data, not instinct.You don't want to miss this episode if you're planning your next STR investment.Key Takeaways2026 may mark a turning point for STR investing as yields improve and financing pressures ease.Yield matters more than ever — especially in markets with lower home prices and steady demand.Small and mid-sized cities continue to outperform, driven by infrastructure, workforce, and extended-stay demand.Price-tier analysis unlocks opportunity, showing where returns change dramatically at different budget levels.Demand drivers like universities and national parks create resilient, diversified booking patterns beyond traditional vacation travel.Best Places To Invest:https://www.airdna.co/best-places-to-invest-in-vacation-rentals—------------Sign up for AirDNA for FREE

Rob Thummel previews energy earnings and shares his outlook for the sector. He tells investors to watch free cash flow yield, which he expects to improve – and notes that investors can't get the same in big tech. Everyone should have an allocation in energy because of how “significant” it is in our daily lives, he says, “We've always liked the sector because it's absolutely essential.” Exxon Mobil (XOM) and Chevron (CVX) are on deck this week. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

838 Bone of My Bone and Flesh of My Flesh, A Guided Christian Meditation on Genesis 2:21-25 with the Recenter With Christ app The purpose of this podcast is to help you find more peace in  and connect with the true source of peace, Jesus Christ.  Outline: Relaxation, Reading, Meditation, Prayer, Contemplation and Visualization.  You can sit comfortably and uninterrupted for about 20 minutes.You should hopefully not be driving or anything tense or unrelaxing.  If you feel comfortable to do so, I invite you to close your eyes.   Guided Relaxation / Guided Meditation:   Breathe and direct your thoughts to connecting with God. Let your stomach be a balloon inflate,  deflate. Scripture for Meditation NABRE 21 So the Lord God cast a deep sleep on the man, and while he was asleep, he took out one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. 22 The Lord God then built the rib that he had taken from the man into a woman. When he brought her to the man, 23 the man said: "This one, at last, is bone of my bones     and flesh of my flesh; This one shall be called 'woman,'     for out of man this one has been taken." 24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and clings to his wife, and the two of them become one body. 25 The man and his wife were both naked, yet they felt no shame. ESV 21 So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. 22 And the rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. 23 Then the man said, "This at last is bone of my bones     and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman,     because she was taken out of Man." 24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. 25 And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed. Reflection on Scripture: The final stage of creation that God did was to create Man then Woman. Eve was the final act of creation. In our modern society we have totally lost the unity this was meant to entail. With a fallen perspective man and women are in competition for power, influence, and dominance. This was not what we were created to be. We were meant to be united as husband and wife as one flesh. Adam said bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh. This is the biblical basis for man and woman cleaving to each other and becoming one flesh.  I invite you to ponder what your perspective is on this? Do you embrace the perspective of the world? Do you feel that all men or women have certain characteristics that are the source of relationship conflicts? The truth is that both men and women are fallen. Many people have had such poor exposure to marriage, either parents or personally, Dont allow the fallen world destroy your perspective of what marriage should be.  Regardless of the experience you have had so far with the marriage relationships or not, know this, the world is seeking to destroy faithful families greater than any single thing. Challenge any notions that would favor one gender above the other. Yield your understanding of sexual ethics, gender ethics, and goodness overall, yeild them all to God. Trust in Him to direct you toward what God wants for you.  Meditation of Prayer: Pray as directed by the Spirit. Dedicate these moments to the patient waiting, when you feel ready ask God for understanding you desire from Him. Meditation of God and His Glory / Hesychasm: I invite you to sit in silence feeling patient for your own faults and trials. Summarize what insights you have gained during this meditation and meditate and visualize positive change in your life: This is a listener funded podcast at patreon.com/christianmeditationpodcast Final Question: If you consider the invitation and command to persevere in the faith, what change in your life does that bring to your mind?  FIND ME ON: Download my free app: Recenter with Christ Website - ChristianMeditationPodcast.com Voicemail - (602) 888-3795 Email: jared@christianmeditationpodcast.com Apple Podcasts - Christian Meditation Podcast Facebook.com/christianmeditationpodcast Youtube.com/christianmeditaitonpodcast Twitter - @ChristianMedPod

This week the boys break down the Crypto Clarity Act's dramatic Senate markup with Coin Center's Peter Van Valkenburgh, covering developer liability concerns, tokenized securities language controversy, the banking industry's war against stablecoin yield. Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. Tarun's out this episode, but we're joined by Peter Van Valkenburgh, Principal of Policy at Coin Center and one of the sharpest legal minds in crypto. This week, we're diving deep into the Crypto Clarity Act drama that has DC in chaos mode. What started as crypto's best shot at comprehensive regulation just hit a major roadblock when Coinbase pulled their support hours before the Senate markup. We'll break down the developer liability questions around "control" definitions, the tokenized securities language that has Brian Armstrong fired up, and the stablecoin yield restrictions that have banks and crypto companies at each other's throats. Peter gives us the inside scoop on what's really in this 200-page bill, why Polymarket odds crashed from 80% to 40%, and whether this legislative train wreck can still get back on track. Let's get into it. Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pods, Fountain, Podcast Addict, Pocket Casts, Amazon Music, or on your favorite podcast platform. Show highlights

Seed corn package diversity is more than relative maturity. Hybrids build yield in a variety a ways - ear length, ear girth, kernel weight. It's important to know how each product gets to the finish line and what package can work best on your acres.On today's podcast, the Wyffels agronomy managers discuss our yield component trials. Wyffels has conducted research to better understand how individual hybrids express their yield components. Hybrids are planted at low and high populations to determine how hybrid yield components change, or "flex", in response to stress. Ears are collected to determine how the girth, length, and kernel weight are affected by stress. Differences are converted to a percentage to show how each yield component influences total ear flex by product. You can fine-tune management to protect genetic yield potential by knowing how hybrids respond to stress.Links discussed in this episode:Our Corn Products - Wyffels HybridsRequest our Product Guide with Yield Component Information.Between the Rows® - Fungicide Use on Wyffels HybridsWyffels Hybrids Trial ResultsWe want to hear from you.

Today's episode digs into the deepening market structure fallout in Washington, tracing how Coinbase's withdrawal from the bill triggered White House anger, exposed fractures across the crypto lobby, and reignited bipartisan resistance in the Senate, particularly around DeFi liability and stablecoin yield. The episode explores why stablecoin yield has become the central fault line between banks and crypto, with banks warning of deposit flight while critics argue the real issue is banks protecting profits at the expense of consumers, leaving the bill stuck between irreconcilable interests. The result is a pessimistic moment for crypto legislation, where momentum still exists but the path forward increasingly looks like it will require one side to cave—or the effort to collapse entirely.

Today's message emphasizes the importance of cultivating a deep and meaningful prayer life by following the acronym P.R.A.Y.—Pause, Rejoice, Ask, Yield. It highlights the significance of pausing to connect with God and then rejoicing in His presence as a loving and holy Father. ​ Will Dyer explains that God is both a compassionate parent who desires a relationship with us and a holy, sovereign Creator deserving of reverence. ​ To rejoice in God's presence, we are encouraged to awaken our souls, pray the Psalms, worship through music, and celebrate with others in community. ​ The message concludes with a call to reflect on where and how we feel closest to God and to embrace opportunities to rejoice in His love and holiness. ​

Yield to the sovereignty of God in all the details of life, and rest in his infallible promises to show himself mighty on your behalf.

Sermon Summary: “Yielding – Our Will vs. God's Will” 1. Yielding Is the Greatest Spiritual Battle The sermon opens by showing that yielding to God's will is the greatest struggle every believer faces. Jesus' prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane reveals that His most intense battle was not the cross, but surrendering His will to the Father. Once Jesus yielded, the cross became inevitable and victory was secured. 2. The Flesh vs. the Spirit Jesus' words—“The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak”—describe the ongoing conflict believers experience. Outside of Satan, our greatest enemy is our own flesh. This battle does not fade with age or maturity; it remains a lifelong challenge requiring vigilance, prayer, and humility. 3. Factors That Work Against Yielding Several forces resist surrender to God: A fallen nature inherited from Adam Pride and self-reliance Presumption about tomorrow Subjectivity toward God's Word Lack of prayer and a renewed mind These pressures cause believers to resist God's authority and delay obedience. 4. Yielding Is the Path to Blessing Surrender is not loss—it is the doorway to blessing, peace, and clarity. Yielding acknowledges God's wisdom, authority, and foresight. When believers refuse to yield, they restrict themselves and miss what God intends to accomplish through them. 5. True Wisdom Is Willing to Yield From James 3, the sermon contrasts earthly wisdom with godly wisdom. Wisdom from above is pure, peaceable, gentle, and willing to yield. Self-seeking and envy are identified as destructive, opening the door to confusion and spiritual harm. 6. Subjectivity Is a Spiritual Trap The fall of Adam and Eve illustrates the danger of being subjective with God's Word. Satan convinced Eve that God was withholding something, leading her to replace God's truth with personal reasoning. The sermon warns against the modern lie of “living your own truth,” emphasizing that there is only one truth—God's. 7. Setting Yourself Up to Succeed Romans 6 teaches that believers must present (yield) themselves to God, setting themselves up for righteousness rather than sin. Yielding involves changing access points, habits, and environments so the flesh has less opportunity to dominate. 8. Presumption Blocks Obedience Using Psalm 19 and James 4, the sermon warns against presuming upon tomorrow. Life is fragile, brief, and uncertain. Delayed obedience—putting God off for convenience or comfort—often results in missed divine appointments. 9. Yielding Begins at Salvation and Continues Daily Surrender starts when a person comes to Christ and continues throughout life. Many resist salvation itself because they do not want to yield control. God's will requires availability, humility, and obedience in both small and great things. 10. Final Call: Be Available The sermon concludes with a powerful call: Yield fully to God Stop delaying obedience Make yourself available to His will Live with eternal perspective The central truth is clear: no one owns tomorrow—only today. God is looking for people who will say, “Here am I, send me.”

The message focused on the importance of prayer and the practice of pausing to connect deeply with God. ​ Will Dyer emphasizes that prayer is not merely a transactional act of asking for things but a relational practice that fosters a meaningful connection with God. ​ Drawing from scripture, including Psalm 46:10 and Ecclesiastes 5:1-2, the message highlights the significance of stillness and silence in prayer, encouraging believers to pause, reflect, and recenter their priorities on God. ​ Using insights from Pete Greig's book How to Pray: A Simple Guide for Normal People, Will Dyer introduces the acronym PRAY—Pause, Rejoice, Ask, Yield—as a framework for prayer. ​ Practical tips for pausing include relaxing, breathing, speaking simple phrases, and repeating the process to quiet the mind and focus on God's presence. ​ The message concludes with a call to embrace silence as an essential step in cultivating a deep and transformative relationship with God. ​

Everyone is talking about how broken the current financial system is—but few talk about why. In this episode of the Private Banking Strategies Podcast, Vance Lowe and Seth Hicks Esq., expose the flawed economic model fueling massive U.S. debt and inflation, and reveal how understanding this system allows you to position your personal finances for stability, growth, and opportunity in any market cycle. Learn why cash flow, yield, and liquidity consistently outperform average rates of return over time, and how relying solely on traditional investments leaves families vulnerable to volatility. We break down why traditional financial planning often fails to deliver real cash flow, control, and long-term wealth—and what you can do instead. Vance and Seth discuss: Introduction: Why most financial plans fail long term The truth about traditional financial planning (and who it really benefits) Yield vs. rate of return: the real driver of long-term wealth building The hidden failures that derail most retirement and investment plans 401(k)s & IRAs vs. Private Banking strategies: reclaiming control of your money The broken U.S. economic model, national debt, and how it erodes your wealth Resources: To Schedule a Call with Vance, Click the Link Below: https://go.oncehub.com/VanceLowe To learn more about Private Banking Strategies®, download a copy of our E-book today: https://privatebankingstrategies.com/resources/free-e-book/  Connect with Seth Hicks and Vance Lowe: Seth's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/privatebankingstrategies/  Vance's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vancedlowe-rfc-chfc-351479100/
