  • The Widening Gap Between Markets
    Aug 29 2023

    Inflation coupled with concern about the labor market’s trajectory is a recipe for economic disaster that must be avoided.   

    We examine what’s incited a division in the markets and why the Federal Reserve should step in with policies that will reduce uncertainty and give everyone a fighting chance at success.  

    In this episode, you’ll also hear:

    • 3 Factors causing the markets to separate 

    • Potential outcomes of current labor market trends 

    • How the Federal Reserve can protect the economy 



    Must-listen moments: 

    [00:02:00] If Wall Street continues to boom while Main Street suffers, it could lead to a widening gap between the rich and the poor.

    [00:02:39]  The labor market is currently very tight, with more job openings than there are people to fill them. As a result of the tight labor market, workers are demanding higher wages.

    [00:03:21] The Federal Reserve needs to be careful not to raise interest rates too quickly, as this could slow down the economy and lead to job losses. However, the Fed also needs to take steps to address the inflation that is caused by rising wages.

  • AI Protocol Design Warning
    Aug 22 2023

    Technology has tremendously advanced in the field of artificial intelligence, more commonly known as AI.   

    In this episode, I explain why we must be cautious when designing the protocols that govern AI’s behavior. 

    In this episode, you’ll also hear:

    • Sci-Fi’s warning about artificial intelligence

    • Understanding AI’s protocol 

    • Designing AI technology with caution 



    Must-listen moments: 

    [00:00:25] The problem with artificial intelligence is that there is no problem with artificial intelligence until the protocol does unethical things on purpose.

    [00:00:58] It is important to remember that AI is a tool, and like any tool, it can be used for good or for evil.

    [00:01:06] It is up to us to ensure that AI is used for good by carefully designing the protocols that govern its behavior.

  • Secondary Market Securities Trading
    Aug 15 2023

    Blockchain technology has the power to facilitate the trading of illiquid assets on secondary markets. This increases accessibility, allowing fractional ownership and the 24-7 trade of traditionally slower moving large assets like real estate properties, venture capital, fine art, intellectual property, and more.  

    In this episode, I share the impact of smart funds on the blockchain, the tokenization of illiquid assets, and what you should know before trading securities on the secondary market.  

    In this episode, you’ll also hear:

    • Benefits of smart funds on the blockchain

    • Tokenization process for multiple asset classes

    • Key regulatory considerations of the secondary market 

     

    Must-listen moments: 

    [00:01:15] Smart funds can attract a global investor base as blockchain technology enables seamless cross border transactions and eliminates geographical barriers.

    [00:03:30] By tokenizing multiple asset classes, smart funds create new opportunities for retail investors to diversify their portfolios and gain exposure to previously inaccessible markets.

    [00:07:55] It is important for market participants to stay updated on the evolving regulatory landscape and comply with applicable laws and regulations.
