  Episode 195: How AI Driven Productivity Could Reshape Inflation And Markets

  Sep 1, 202628 minS5

  AI is not just a stock market storyline. It is a productivity story, and productivity is where higher wages, stronger corporate earnings, and long-run wealth creation actually come from. We walk through why AI and Federal Reserve policy can look unrelated on the surface, yet collide in the same place: inflation expectations, interest rates, and how investors price the future. We also get practical about what people are feeling right now. Bonds have been a rough spot for anyone who expected “safe” to mean steady, and a traditional 60/40 portfolio can feel out of balance when inflation runs hot and markets whipsaw on geopolitical risk and Fed messaging. I share what I’m watching in the AI investment landscape and why technology can be naturally deflationary over time if it truly lifts output per worker. Then we zoom out to the labor market and the real-world constraints shaping it: historically low unemployment, slower labor force participation, aging demographics, and shifting immigration dynamics. The big takeaway is perspective. I explain the bucket approach we use with clients, why seven years is a more realistic definition of “long term” for most people, and how volatility can create opportunity when your plan is built to handle it. If you want a clearer, calmer way to think about AI, inflation, and the Fed without getting pulled into daily noise, hit play.

  Episode 193: July Volatility Survival Guide

  Aug 4, 202630 minS5

  July was the kind of month that makes smart people do dumb things with their money. We felt the whipsaw firsthand: AI names getting hit hard, Treasury yields climbing to multi-year highs, oil ripping higher on renewed Middle East tension, and a Federal Reserve that holds rates steady while offering less guidance than investors are used to. Even when the S&P 500 ends only slightly lower, the day-to-day swings can make it feel far more painful, especially if you’re concentrated in one theme. We walk through the numbers that mattered and the ones that distract, including why we pay more attention to broader benchmarks like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq than the Dow. From the VIX jump to bond index weakness, the message is simple: markets do not go up every day, and volatility is part of the price of admission. Then we dig into the real lightning rod, AI investments. Corporate earnings raised fresh questions about massive data center and AI infrastructure spend, free cash flow pressure, and whether the return on investment will show up fast enough. We also explore how new developments like the open-weight Kimi K3 model from Moonshot AI could reshape expectations around AI costs, hardware demand, and data trust. From there, we connect the dots to oil prices, inflation sensitivity, Fed uncertainty under new leadership, and the reemergence of tariffs as another source of economic complexity.

  AI Can Transform Markets But Investors Need Proof

  Jul 28, 202621 min

  AI can feel like magic: download an app, type a prompt, and you get an answer that would have sounded like science fiction not long ago. But we don’t invest in “magic” we invest in real businesses with real costs, real supply chains, and real expectations baked into stock prices. That’s why we step back and look at AI through a clearer lens: the full AI value chain, from semiconductors and GPUs to data centers, software, and the companies trying to turn AI into measurable productivity gains. We walk through the two big compute phases that drive demand, training and inference, and why that matters for chip makers, cloud capacity, and the massive buildout of data center infrastructure. We also talk about why the market can swing so hard around AI-related stocks: new facilities take time to build, models may become more efficient, and investors keep asking whether hundreds of billions in AI spending will earn sufficient returns. Along the way, we connect today’s uncertainty to familiar market history, including dot-com era lessons about valuation, execution, and how long it can take for a new technology to translate into durable profits. Finally, we bring it back to practical investing. Valuations are not a crystal ball, but they can help us choose an appropriate mix of assets, stay diversified, and keep our focus on long-term financial goals and legacy planning.

  Episode 191: What Happens When Space Becomes Infrastructure

  Jul 14, 202625 minS5

  Space is quietly becoming the backbone of modern life, and most of us only notice it when something breaks. We sit down with Matt Voss, President of Near Space Launch in Upland, Indiana, to unpack how the small-satellite revolution is changing the cost of building, testing, and launching real hardware into orbit. From CubeSats to rapid prototyping, we talk about why the “new space” era looks more like manufacturing and iteration than slow, custom, one-off missions. We also get practical about what satellites actually do for people on the ground and how they can help everyday people save money. Matt connects space technology to critical infrastructure such as GPS and positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT), as well as improved weather forecasting, wildfire detection, and disaster communications that can reconnect communities when terrestrial networks go down. We dig into why constellations are a big deal, how low Earth orbit and very low Earth orbit (VLEO) open new opportunities for data, and why “space weather” and atmospheric effects matter more than most people realize. One of the most inspiring parts of the conversation is education. Near Space Launch’s student-focused programs show how STEM education, space camps, and hands-on clean room work can move from theory to a full build-to-launch-to-data cycle in about a year, so students can learn fast and see outcomes before they graduate.

  Midyear Market Checkup For Long-Term Investors

  Jul 8, 202629 minS5

  A market at all-time highs can still feel like rough water when the news cycle never stops. We step back and make the first half of 2026 understandable, using a simple investing lens: markets can climb even when uncertainty is loud, and the real advantage comes from discipline, diversification, and a long-term time horizon. We walk through the midyear scoreboard across major asset classes, including the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow, then contrast that strength with the frustration many bond investors feel as the US Aggregate Bond Index lags. From there, we connect the dots on key drivers people ask us about every day: Treasury yields, the Federal Reserve holding rates steady, the business cycle that began in the pandemic era, and why consumer sentiment can look gloomy even while spending stays resilient. We also tackle the stories behind the volatility. Oil spikes and pullbacks tied to the Iran conflict feed directly into inflation prints like CPI, while measures like the VIX show how quickly fear can fade. On opportunity and risk, we discuss the wave of IPO attention, including SpaceX and anticipated AI-related listings, plus what high stock valuations really mean when earnings are strong. We close with a hard truth about “cash on the sidelines”: cash feels safe, but after inflation, purchasing power can quietly erode.
