    Is the Biggest Investing Solution Becoming the Market's Biggest Problem?

    If markets no longer price value, then what's actually setting the price?Raise Your Average hosts Pierre Daillie and Adam Butler sit down with Michael Green, Chief Strategist and Portfolio Manager at Simplify Asset Management, for a deep dive into the passive investing thesis he has spent over a decade researching, defending, and stress testing. Green argues that trillions of dollars flowing automatically into index funds via 401(k)s, RSPs, and defined contribution plans have created a market where price no longer reflects judgment about value. He walks through the mechanics of the "inelastic market hypothesis," the outsized role of leveraged and levered sector ETFs like SOXL, the Grossman-Stiglitz framework and why its core assumptions no longer hold, and why active and value investing have become structurally disadvantaged in the current regime. The conversation also covers the 2026 macro backdrop of a US-Iran conflict, an oil shock, and equities at all-time highs despite it, the risk of a passive "end stage," and where genuine diversification (like managed futures) still fits. It's a candid, occasionally combative, and consistently illuminating discussion for anyone trying to understand why markets are behaving in ways that don't match historical patterns.

    Why 0% in Bitcoin & Blockchain is Actually a Riskier Bet Than 1%

    Bitcoin is down 50% from its highs — but Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan says the price is the least important thing happening in crypto right now. In this episode of Raise Your Average, hosts Pierre Daillie and Mike Philbrick sit down with Matt Hougan, Chief Investment Officer at Bitwise Asset Management, to make sense of the 2026 crypto winter. Hougan argues this is "the best winter ever" for crypto: prices are down, but the fundamentals, regulatory clarity, and institutional infrastructure are stronger than in any prior cycle. The conversation moves from Bitcoin's role as scarce, digital hard money to the quieter, faster-moving story underneath it: stablecoins and tokenization rebuilding the plumbing of global finance. Hougan walks through why the "neutral" Bitcoin allocation isn't zero, why advisors and institutions get stuck at the finish line even after months of due diligence, and how blockchain rails already move money and assets faster and cheaper than traditional banking. The episode closes with a deep dive into agentic AI, exploring how autonomous AI agents transacting 24/7 could become the largest driver of blockchain activity yet, and what that means for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Chainlink, and Bittensor. A must-listen for advisors trying to figure out how to talk to clients about crypto without the noise.

    David Dziekanski: The End of the Options-Based Income ETF Trade-Off

    The options income ETF industry just crossed $1 trillion in assets — and almost nobody is talking about the structural flaw buried inside every one of those products. David Dziekanski, co-founder, CEO, and CIO of Quantify Funds, spent nearly two decades building ETFs — more than 75 of them — before he saw a gap so fundamental he had to build something entirely new. In this episode of Raise Your Average, Pierre Daillie and Mike Philbrick sit down with David to examine what covered call and derivative income ETFs get wrong, why most investors don't realize it, and how Quantify's Stacked Income fund family — powered by Return Stacked ETFs and Convexitas as options sub-advisor — attempts to deliver income, full upside exposure, and genuine diversification without asking investors to choose between them. ⏱ Chapters00:00 — Introduction: The $1 trillion problem hiding in options income ETFs 03:00 — David Dziekanski: Career background, Tidal Financial Group, and the founding thesis of Quantify Funds 05:00 — The three design flaws of derivative income ETFs: income targeting, formulaic strategies, and lack of benchmarking 10:00 — Why covered call ETFs became popular — and why advisors accepted the trade-off for so long 13:00 — Delta drift explained: how a 0.74 delta on day one becomes 0.54 by month-end without any manager decision 17:00 — Negative alpha in plain sight: why most covered call products underperform even a T-bill + equity blend 20:00 — Convexitas's three-step options framework: implied vs. realized vol, skew profiling, and tenor selection 24:00 — The core thesis: income without sacrificing total return — ending the trade-off 27:00 — Return stacking as capital efficiency: A + B in a single dollar, and imposed diversification 30:00 — Distribution policy: why Quantify lowers payouts in drawdowns and tops up on rebounds 53:00 — Fee structure: 114 bps on 200% exposure = 57 bps unlevered, and why that beats the competition 55:00 — Daily trade transparency: how Quantify posts options rationale on X every trading day 59:00 — Building behavioral stickiness: transparency, distributions, and investor intuition 01:01:00 — The advisor conversation: aha moments and the covered call education gap 01:05:00 — Simplicity vs. complexity: blind spots are the cost of simple option strategies 01:09:00 — Quantify as "version 3.0" of options income — crawl, walk, run adoption framework 01:11:00 — BTGD, ISBG, ISSB: the Bitcoin + gold stacking thesis and currency debasement 01:15:00 — Gold, Bitcoin, and scarcity assets: what comes after the bazooka 01:22:00 — Closing: why the derivative income category exists, and where it needs to go Links & Resources Quantify Funds: quantifyfunds.com Daily trade rationale: Quantify Funds on X (Twitter) Return Stacked ETFs: returnstackedetfs.com Convexitas: convexitas.com #OptionsIncome #CoveredCallETF #ReturnStacking #ETFinvesting #QuantifyFunds #Convexitas #VolatilityHarvesting #BitcoinETF #GoldETF #IncomeInvesting #DividendETF #OptionsStrategy #WealthManagement #AlternativeInvesting #FinancialAdvisor #RaiseYourAverage #ETFEducation #ImpliedVolatility #OptionsAlpha #CurrencyDebasement #PortfolioConstruction #CapitalEfficiency #RetailInvestor #PassiveIncome #SmartBeta

    Justin Huhn: Uranium is the Missing Layer Beneath the AI Trade

    Most portfolios already own the AI trade — but almost none own the energy underneath it, and that's exactly where the next big opportunity lives. In this episode of Raise Your Average, hosts Pierre Daillie and Mike Philbrick sit down with Justin Huhn, Founder, Lead Analyst and Editor of Uranium Insider, to unpack why uranium is the missing layer beneath the AI trade — and why the structural supply-demand imbalance in the nuclear fuel cycle may be one of the most consequential and overlooked investment opportunities of the decade. Justin traces uranium's journey from a forgotten commodity trading near $18/lb in 2017 to today's spot price of $85 — and explains why the bull case is more durable now than ever. The convergence of AI data center power demand, Western electricity grid strain, reactor life extensions, hyperscaler nuclear power agreements, and a deeply undersupplied fuel cycle has created a structural setup that, in Justin's view, doesn't require the AI tailwind to deliver significantly higher uranium prices. That tailwind is, as he puts it, "a bonus." The conversation covers the full uranium fuel cycle — from mine to reactor — including why supply simply cannot respond as quickly as demand, why utilities are systematically late to contract, how hyperscalers like Microsoft, Google and Amazon entering the nuclear fuel market is a landmark signal, and how advisors can think about positioning uranium as an infrastructure-adjacent hedge on the AI power squeeze. ⏱ Chapters00:00 — Introduction: AI, energy crisis, and the nuclear renaissance 04:04 — Why nuclear is the only power source AI infrastructure actually needs 09:07 — Justin Huhn: from $18/lb uranium to the global nuclear renaissance 13:50 — Safety, carbon, and why the anti-nuclear narrative finally broke 16:16 — Western electricity demand awakens: AI and electrification converge 21:32 — U.S. grid stress: data centers testing the limits of existing infrastructure 23:40 — Every U.S. reactor getting life extended; hyperscalers entering the fuel cycle 26:39 — What Microsoft, Google and Amazon signing nuclear deals actually signals 28:49 — Supply vs. demand: why uranium can't be turned on like an oil well 34:44 — Why uranium price is almost irrelevant to reactor restart decisions 39:17 — How utilities contract uranium: long-term deals, herd behaviour and missed timing 44:57 — Why utilities have been "utterly wrong" about price trajectory — and why that matters 50:35 — How Uranium Insider models supply and demand out to 2040 52:40 — The dynamic trading model: doubling money while outperforming ETFs by 50–60% 53:10 — Reading the physical market, sentiment signals, and RSI for trade timing 57:54 — Uranium as an advisor portfolio play: the AI-adjacent energy infrastructure trade 59:07 — SMR demand, OPG Darlington, and what the next leg of the cycle looks like #Uranium #NuclearEnergy #AIInfrastructure #EnergyInvesting #UraniumInsider #NuclearRenaissance #DataCenterPower #SmallModularReactors #UraniumBullMarket #RaiseYourAverage #CriticalMinerals #EnergyTransition #NuclearStocks #UraniumMining #PowerGrid #AIDataCenters #AlternativeEnergy #PortfolioConstruction #InvestmentStrategy #FinancePodcast

    Larry Swedroe: The Adaptive Market & The Undiversified Investor

    Larry Swedroe has spent 30 years proving the market will almost always beat you — and in this episode, he explains why that's about to become even more true. In this episode of Raise Your Average, hosts Pierre Daillie and Mike Philbrick sit down with legendary evidence-based investing author and outsourced CIO Larry Swedroe for a wide-ranging masterclass on where markets are heading and what investors must do to survive them. Swedroe breaks down how AI is accelerating market efficiency rather than unlocking alpha, why the 60/40 portfolio carries far more equity risk than most investors realize, and why true hyper-diversification — across private credit, reinsurance, return stacking, and long-short factor strategies — is the only credible response to a world where correlation assumptions break at exactly the wrong moment. He confronts the behavioral mistakes social media is making worse, challenges advisors to stress-test risk tolerance with real dollar numbers, and argues the future of wealth management belongs to those who master alternatives. ⏱ Chapters00:00 — Cold Open: AI and the Adaptive Markets Hypothesis 02:00 — Welcome to Larry Swedroe 03:00 — Post-Retirement Life: Consulting, Writing, and Giving Back 09:00 — AI and Market Efficiency: Does Technology Create or Destroy Alpha? 11:00 — Factor Model History: CAPM, Fama-French, and Shrinking Active Alpha 14:00 — Warren Buffett's Disappearing Alpha 21:00 — The Danger of AI Data Mining and False Correlations 23:00 — What Makes a Factor Worth Owning: Persistent, Pervasive, Robust 28:00 — Leverage Aversion: When a Little Is Good and a Lot Is Dangerous 30:00 — Private Credit and the Case for Senior Secured Loans 31:00 — Return Stacking and Portable Alpha 34:00 — Hyper-Diversification: Why Your 60/40 Is Really 90/10 in Risk Terms 39:00 — The 40-Year Period Growth Stocks Underperformed Long Treasuries 40:00 — Reinsurance and AQR Style Premium: Self-Healing Assets and Impatience 45:00 — The Real Definition of Diversification: Something Is Always Hurting 47:00 — Good Advisors Are People Managers, Not Money Managers 54:00 — Stress-Testing Risk Tolerance with Real Dollar Numbers 56:00 — Monte Carlo and the True Cost of Avoiding Alternatives 59:00 — Trend Following: Clustered Returns and Why You Buy Insurance at a Cost 01:05:00 — Behavioral Mistakes in the Age of Social Media 01:07:00 — Information vs. Value-Relevant Information: Why Reddit Won't Make You Rich 01:11:00 — The Future of Advisory Practice: Wealth Management and the Next Decade #EvidenceBasedInvesting #FactorInvesting #MarketEfficiency #AIInvesting #ReturnStacking #BehavioralFinance #WealthManagement #AlternativeInvestments #PortfolioConstruction #FinancialAdvisor #RaiseYourAverage #LarrySwedroe #RetirementPlanning #ManagedFutures #TrendFollowing #PrivateCredit #Reinsurance #HyperDiversification #InvestmentStrategy #FinancePodcast #IndexInvesting #FactorPremium #ActiveVsPassive #AdvisorAnalyst #MikePhilbrick #PierreDaillie #LongShortStrategy #MonteCarloSimulation #SequenceOfReturnsRisk #PortfolioRisk

    The Covered Call ETF Gap | Zed Francis and Devin Anderson

    Most investors think they understand what they own — Devin Anderson and Zed Francis of Convexitas are here to prove they don't, and to show what the next generation of derivative investing actually looks like. Pierre Daillie and Mike Philbrick welcome Devin Anderson and Zed Francis, Co-Founders of Convexitas, for a masterclass in derivative investing that challenges everything advisors and investors think they know about covered calls, buffered ETFs, and options-based income strategies. Drawing on deep institutional backgrounds — Devin from two decades at Deutsche Bank's equity derivatives structuring desk, and Zed from UBS credit trading, distressed hedge funds, and Legal & General — the two founders lay bare the hidden complexity lurking inside "simple" yield products that dominate today's wealth management landscape. The conversation pulls no punches: the hockey-stick diagrams used to explain covered call ETFs at point-of-sale actively mask real-time risk exposures that can shift dramatically intraday. A product sold as "half the risk of equities" can quietly become nearly full equity exposure within hours of a 1% market move — and most advisors and clients have no idea. Devin and Zed argue this isn't a reason to abandon these products, but a powerful case for active, continuous derivative management that delivers what the product actually promised. The founders introduce Convexitas's philosophy: that the options market is structurally mispriced, and that most yield-seeking investors are sitting on the wrong side of that mispricing. They walk through the SMA-based approach — designed to generate accessible liquidity precisely when markets crash, enabling advisors to rebalance into distressed assets rather than being frozen by tax friction, behavioral paralysis, or trapped capital in fund wrappers. From the mechanics of short volatility to the case for unfunded overlays, return stacking, and Warren Buffett's alpha decoded through Fama-French factors, this episode is essential listening for any advisor navigating the derivative income revolution.

    Dave Nadig: The ETF Bubble Nobody is Talking About

    The ETF industry has never been more powerful — or more crowded. Dave Nadig, President & Director of Research at ETF.com, joins Pierre Daillie and Mike Philbrick for a no-holds-barred conversation on the structural risks building beneath the surface of the world's most successful financial innovation.

    Paul Kornfeld: Don't Fight the Market—Align With It

    When cash is outranking U.S. equities and gold sells off when it's supposed to rally, the advisors holding up aren't reacting faster — they're working from a better framework. In this episode of Raise Your Average, host Pierre Daillie sits down with Paul Kornfeld, Portfolio Manager and Director of Technology Services at SIA Wealth Management, for a wide-ranging conversation on what the firm's rules-based relative strength system is signalling right now — and why those signals have been readable for over a year. Paul walks through SIA's point-and-figure methodology, explaining how millions of pairwise asset comparisons cut through geopolitical noise and behavioural bias to reveal where money is actually flowing. From the Canada-vs.-U.S. rotation that started in April 2024, to the semiconductor-vs.-software divergence that flagged the SaaS repricing before most advisors saw it coming, to a candid story about a Calgary advisor group with zero energy exposure in an oil boom — this episode is a masterclass in process-driven investing. Paul and Pierre also look ahead to the durable themes likely to define the next 12–18 months: real assets over financial assets, international over U.S. broad indices, AI infrastructure over AI software, and the looming wildcard of North American trade renegotiation in Q3. ⏱ Chapters00:00 — Introduction: Markets whipsawing, cash beating U.S. equities 01:00 — Welcome Paul Kornfeld: Real rotation or relief rally? 01:40 — What advisors are asking right now 04:36 — SIA's methodology: Relative strength, point-and-figure, opportunity cost 07:12 — The goal is alignment, not prediction 12:32 — Risk management: The equity action call and the traffic-light model 14:01 — Asset class rankings: Cash above U.S. equity, commodities pulling back 15:39 — The rotation that started April 2024: International overtakes U.S. 17:51 — One takeaway: Reevaluate your U.S. equity weight vs. international 21:48 — Gold's anatomy: The longest gold rally Paul has seen 29:14 — Tactical sleeves: How advisors can outsource the hard calls 31:51 — Canada vs. U.S. sector breakdown: Energy, financials, IT divergence 33:44 — Software vs. semiconductors: The SaaS reckoning since ChatGPT 40:02 — Data infrastructure: The durable AI theme the market keeps pricing in 40:38 — Point-and-figure in action: Salesforce sell signal, CSCO buy signal 44:47 — S&P 100 positioning: Semis dominate the top five right now 50:06 — Keep politics out of your investing 50:56 — TSX60: Energy, mining, chemicals — and the Kinross success story 54:13 — The Calgary story: Zero energy exposure in an oil boom 56:57 — Buying insurance vs. making a call: Aligning without predicting 59:49 — U.S. equities at 65% of global market cap: Is the world overweight? 01:03:39 — Durable signals for the next 12–18 months 01:05:59 — Real assets, domestic production, AI infrastructure as core theme 01:07:16 — Q3 trade negotiations: The biggest wildcard for positioning 01:08:47 — Biggest surprise in 12 months: AI disruption, faster than anyone expects 01:14:28 — Where to find SIA Wealth and SICharts #RelativeStrength #SIAWealth #SectorRotation #PortfolioManagement #InvestingStrategy #CanadianInvesting #WealthManagement #TacticalAllocation #MomentumInvesting #AIInvesting #GoldBullMarket #EnergyStocks #Semiconductors #SaaSStocks #FinancialAdvisor #InvestmentAdvisor #RaiseYourAverage #MarketRotation #PointAndFigure #BehavioralFinance #EtfInvesting #TSX #SP500 #MacroInvesting #ActiveManagement Find SIA Wealth Management:siawealth.com | siacharts.com
