    This Isn’t Priced In | PIMCO’s Libby Cantrill on the Policy Risks Markets Are Missing

    Policy uncertainty is rising—but markets seem unfazed. In this episode, we sit down with Libby Cantrill, Head of Public Policy at PIMCO, to explore the critical policy risks that investors may be underestimating or ignoring altogether. From the real-world implications of the tariffs to questions around Fed independence, fiscal stimulus, and housing market interventions, Libby provides an insider’s perspective on what’s happening in Washington—and why it matters more than the market suggests. She also discusses how policy risk differs from macroeconomic risk, how investors often price the wrong factors, and why the next shock may not come from where most expect. Topics covered include: Why policy risk remains underappreciated by markets The lasting impact of tariffs—and how they could evolve The Big, Beautiful Tax Bill: What’s real, what’s hype Risks to Fed independence and central bank credibility GSE reform and the political tightrope in housing The intersection of fiscal policy and market complacency Whether you're focused on macro trends, portfolio positioning, or simply trying to understand what Washington might throw at markets next, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

Topics discussed include: Why recession indicators failed to predict this cycle The real risk behind the Liberation Day tariff panic How the Fed’s rate hikes lost their bite What’s changed in the economy’s sensitivity to rates Prometheus’ approach to stress testing and forecasting How Aahan translates macro data into portfolio strategy The behavioral traps investors fall into during macro shifts

    In this episode, we speak with Luca Paolini, Chief Strategist at Pictet Asset Management, about the firm’s 2025 Secular Outlook and the unfolding shift in global markets. Paolini argues that the era of U.S. exceptionalism is fading—and investors may be mispricing what comes next.

Whether you're a global macro watcher or a long-term investor thinking about regime shifts, this conversation offers a roadmap for the next five years.

    Broken Models. Misleading Yields | Ryan Krueger on Avoiding the Dividend Trap

    Most investors chase yield. But what if the very models they rely on — from dividend screens to the 4% rule — are fundamentally broken? In this episode, we’re joined by Ryan Krueger, co-founder of Freedom Day Solutions and manager of the MBOX ETF, to explore the overlooked truths of dividend investing. Ryan breaks down the importance of dividend growth over yield, why most dividend strategies ignore free cash flow, and how a disciplined sell process separates long-term success from failure.

Whether you're a dividend investor, financial advisor, or retiree planning for long-term income, this conversation offers a fresh, practical framework you won’t hear elsewhere. We discuss: Why dividend growth beats high yield over time The flaws in the 4% withdrawal rule How yield-on-cost changes investor behavior Red flags hidden inside popular dividend ETFs How “Freedom Day” redefines retirement planning Ryan’s quant + discretionary investment process The underrated power of sell discipline Why “never add to losers” might boost your returns 📈 Learn more about Ryan’s work: https://freedomdaysolutions.com
