    Katie Stockton Still Sees a Bull Market. So Why Is Her ETF Only 50% in Stocks?

    Katie Stockton of Fairlead Strategies explains why the S&P 500 can reach record highs while many individual stocks struggle. She sees the bull market as intact, but weaker participation raises an important question for diversified investors: is the pullback creating opportunity, or signaling a more lasting change? In this episode of Excess Returns, Katie Stockton joins Matt Zeigler and Justin Carbonneau to examine market breadth, rising Treasury yields, sector leadership and the signals that would change her outlook. She also explains why the Fairlead Tactical Sector ETF holds roughly half its assets in equities at the time of the conversation, and walks through the charts for gold, oil and Bitcoin. Topics covered: Why narrow leadership can sustain the index while diversified portfolios lagThe difference between an overbought market and a downturn in momentumWhy weak breadth alone is not a reliable market-timing signalSmall-cap support levels and the difference between a relief rally and a lasting recoveryThe Treasury-yield breakout and credit spreads as a longer-term risk gaugeSector relative strength, technology leadership and international market concentrationHow the TACK ETF's rules-based approach produces more defensive positioningGold's role as a potential hedge despite a weakening price trendCrude oil's support and resistance levels and Katie Stockton's Bitcoin outlookThe BNAV ETF's tactical Bitcoin strategy and the risk signals to watch into year-endLearn more about Fairlead Strategies.

    Tom Maher on Small-Cap Investing, AI Infrastructure and Opportunities Beyond Big Tech

    Tom Maher of Hilton Capital Management explains what is changing for small-cap stocks as earnings improve and AI spending reaches beyond big tech. After years of justified large-cap leadership, he sees reasons to revisit smaller companies while remaining selective about business quality, financing needs and valuation. In this episode of Excess Returns, we explore the physical infrastructure behind AI, the case for diversifying beyond the largest stocks, and how Tom Maher finds businesses with improving fundamentals. We also discuss the effects of passive investing, opportunities in reshoring, and why knowing more about a company does not always lead to a better investment decision. Topics covered: Why stronger earnings helped justify large-cap leadership and what could change that balanceHow AI construction and equipment spending can benefit smaller industrial companiesWhy some small companies grow into large caps while others remain smallSelf-funding businesses versus companies that depend on outside capitalUnprofitable index constituents, private equity and the changing IPO marketHow interest rates affect financing costs, valuations and portfolio decisionsWhy ETF flows can move a stock independently of its business fundamentalsFinding improving businesses without mistaking a low valuation for an opportunityEvaluating management incentives, consistency and acquisition decisionsTom Maher's lessons on taking partial profits and reading unexpected stock-price reactionsLearn more about Hilton Capital Management.

    Ed Yardeni Still Sees S&P 10,000 by 2029. So Why Is He Getting More Cautious?

    Ed Yardeni of Yardeni Research explains why he still sees the S&P 500 reaching 10,000 by 2029, even as higher oil prices and bond yields make him more cautious near term. His destination hasn't changed, but the timetable has: he has pushed his 8,400 target to mid-2027 while retaining his Roaring 2020s outlook. In this conversation with Justin Carbonneau and Jack Forehand, Ed distinguishes an earnings-led bull market from a speculative melt-up, explains why retiring baby boomers keep spending, and makes the case for AI's benefits spreading beyond the Magnificent Seven. He also weighs the return of the bond vigilantes, diesel's inflation impact, global diversification and the risks that could challenge his optimistic base case. Topics covered: Ed Yardeni's FEMO: fabulous earnings momentum versus fear of missing outWhy strong earnings can support stocks even as valuation multiples fallThe assumptions behind Ed Yardeni's S&P 500 target of 10,000 by 2029Retiree wealth, consumer spending and Ed Yardeni's G-shaped economyAI, productivity and data as a fourth factor of productionWhy Ed Yardeni favors the “impressive 493” as potential AI beneficiariesCloud revenue, compute demand and the returns on AI capital spendingBond vigilantes, fiscal deficits and the difference between growth-driven yields and a debt crisisHow diesel costs could feed into core inflationGlobal diversification and the bond market's role in guiding Fed policy Chapters: 00:00 Ed Yardeni's bull case and near-term caution 04:26 The Roaring 2020s and retiree spending 08:53 Technology and the productivity thesis 13:06 AI, economic growth and data as a resource 18:22 Why the economy is more than AI spending 24:10 AI returns and the impressive 493 29:48 Valuations, S&P 10,000 and rising bond yields 38:42 Government debt and demand for Treasuries 43:34 Diesel inflation and global diversification 47:41 Fed policy and signals from the bond market 51:55 Yardeni Research's process and tools 56:19 Why Ed Yardeni favors a G-shaped economy Learn more about the Excess Returns podcast network: https://excessreturns.co

    Andy Constan, Brent Kochuba and Eric Pachman examine rising bond yields, options positioning and the inflation risks facing stocks. What happens if the rate relief traders are betting on never arrives? On this month's Last Call, Jack Forehand and Matt Zeigler connect three perspectives on the market. Andy Constan explains why stronger growth and debt supply can push yields higher without signaling a bond crisis. Brent Kochuba examines options flows that suggest traders are still leaning toward a rebound. Eric Pachman traces the path from refinery constraints and diesel shortages to freight costs and consumer inflation.

    The Game Was Rigged in Their Favor. 28% Went Bust Anyway | Kris Abdelmessih on How to Size Bets

    How much of your portfolio does a good investment idea deserve? Kris Abdelmessih of Moontower joins Matt Zeigler to explain why having an edge is only part of the decision: position size can determine whether favorable odds translate into long-term growth or damaging losses. Through a coin-flipping experiment and everyday examples, Kris makes the Kelly Criterion accessible without a complicated derivation. The conversation explores the difference between expected returns and compounded wealth, why growth-maximizing bets can still be uncomfortable, and how uncertain probabilities make a case for betting less. From portfolio decisions to insurance and extended warranties, the goal is to build better intuition about how much risk to take. Topics covered: How a favorable coin-flipping game exposed costly mistakes in bet sizingWhy maximizing the expected payoff of one bet differs from maximizing long-term compounded growthHow oversized bets can undermine an otherwise profitable opportunityThe Kelly Criterion's three inputs: probability of winning, probability of losing, and payoffWhy a constant percentage of your bankroll means changing the dollar amount after wins and lossesHow different payoffs change the appropriate size of a betApplying the framework to hypothetical self-insurance and extended-warranty decisionsWhy full Kelly can involve substantial drawdowns, and the tradeoffs of fractional KellyWorking backward from a position size to the odds needed to justify itAllowing for uncertainty in your estimates and preserving capital for future opportunitiesThe essay behind this conversation: After this post you will be sizing bets in your head https://www.panoptica.com/after-this-post-you-will-be-sizing-bets-in-your-head/ Research discussed: Rational Decision-Making Under Uncertainty: Observed Betting Patterns on a Biased Coin https://arxiv.org/abs/1701.01427 Kris Abdelmessih's Moontower newsletter: https://moontower.substack.com/ Moontower: https://moontower.ai/ Kris Abdelmessih on X: https://x.com/KrisAbdelmessih Chapters: 00:00 Position sizing and the favorable coin-flip experiment 04:45 Why a good bet can produce bad outcomes 13:49 The Kelly Criterion formula explained 18:10 Adjusting your bankroll and accounting for the payoff 23:03 Applying Kelly to a self-insurance decision 30:25 Full Kelly, drawdowns, and reasons to bet less 34:59 Working backward from bet size and evaluating warranties 41:09 Volatility drag, uncertain odds, and the experiment's results 46:09 How much capital does your edge deserve?

    We Asked the Data Journalist Who Rebuilt the Jobs Report What the Headline Number Hides

    What are headline jobs and inflation numbers missing about the economy investors actually face? Eric Pachman of Data 4 The People joins Matt Zeigler to examine how a changing workforce, rising fuel costs, and differences in household spending could affect inflation, consumer demand, and corporate margins. Using interactive data tools, Eric looks beneath monthly payroll reports, maps changes in America's labor force, and traces how diesel prices can work their way into retail prices. He also shares a grocery-price study that challenged his own assumptions about CPI and explains how he is using AI to make rigorous data journalism more accessible. Topics covered: Why monthly jobs reports need context, including survey uncertainty and revisionsHow to spot unusual industry-level payroll changes and assess the quality of jobs addedWhat county-level labor force trends reveal about aging and rural AmericaEric Pachman's research on foreign-born workers and the limits of replacement assumptionsHow a shrinking supply of workers could create pressure on service pricesHow diesel costs flow through freight surcharges, retailer margins, and consumer pricesWhat to watch for in retailer earnings calls as companies weigh price increasesWhy household income, driving habits, and spending patterns change the experience of inflationWhat Eric Pachman's Kroger study found about CPI, the Thrifty Food Plan, and store brandsUsing AI to test assumptions and expand access to data journalismExplore Eric Pachman's research and interactive tools: https://www.data4thepeople.com/ The Men Who Vanished: Testing Labor Market Displacement https://www.data4thepeople.com/p/the-men-who-vanished How do the government's grocery prices stack up against the real ones? https://www.data4thepeople.com/p/kroger-shelf-vs-cpi-thrifty-food-plan/ Chapters: 00:00 Introduction and Data 4 The People's mission 09:20 Spotting unusual changes in the jobs data 18:27 Mapping America's changing labor force 27:00 Foreign-born workers, aging, and labor supply 34:51 Energy costs and the path to consumer inflation 47:49 Why your inflation experience differs from CPI 56:12 Personal inflation tools and testing grocery prices 1:02:36 AI, data journalism, and challenging your own bias 1:11:17 Where to find Eric Pachman's work and tools Learn more about the Excess Returns podcast network: https://excessreturns.co No information discussed in this podcast should be construed as investment advice.
