    6-8-26 Lending Cycles & Real Estate Risk - David Zugheri Interview
    Jun 8 2026
    What really drives lending cycles, and why do they always seem to end the same way? Lance Roberts and RealFin Capital founder, David Zugheri, break down how credit is created, why risk builds beneath the surface, and what happens when underwriting standards begin to loosen. From the origins of the RTC to today's lending environment, we explore the structural forces that shape booms, busts, and the transfer of wealth across the economy. We also dig into the evolution of housing, the growing risks in multi-family real estate, and the unintended consequences of regulation on credit availability. Through the RealFin story and real-world experience in esoteric lending, we highlight what separates success from failure in volatile cycles, how liquidity disappears when it's needed most, and why being battle-tested matters. If you want to understand why there's rarely a "soft landing" in lending—and what that means for investors and business owners—this episode connects the dots. 0:00 - INTRO 2:11 - Building a Business During Business Cycles 5:35 - How We Got the RTC 7:16 - Risk is like Stretching 9:22 - The Beginning of the End 12:15 - The Two-trick Pony: Lower Rates or Loosen Underwriting 13:39 - There's no such thing as a soft landing in lending 14:06 - We loan money into existence 15:13 - Lending, Borrowing, & Redistribution of Wealth 19:54 - Capitalism is Not Broken 21:31 - Dodd Frank Killed the American Spirit 24:13 - The Different Flavors of Lending (Ass National Bank) 26:08 - It has Always Been Expensive to Buy a House 29:00 - When Asset Prices Get Out of Control 30:52 - The Evolution of the Housing Market, Problems in Multi-family Real Estate 32:09 - The RealFin Story - Esoteric Lending 34:33 - Regulation-induced Lending Restrictions 36:51 - The Difference Between Success & Failure in a Business 39:56 - When You Get Yourself in Trouble... 40:58 - The RealFin REIT - We eat our own dog food 44:43 - Being Battle-tested 46:01 - The Liquidity Issue 50:17 - Getting in Touch w RealFin 52:48 - The Most Powerful Force in the World 57:54 - Mistakes We've Made Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO, w Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Do you enjoy our content?

    6-4-26 Single Sector Driving Markets | Before the Bell
    Jun 4 2026
    One Sector Is Driving Everything The S&P 500 continues to make new highs, but the story beneath the surface is far different. Technology and semiconductors have become the dominant force behind market performance, creating a widening gap between the S&P 500 and nearly every other major sector and factor. In today's pre-market update, we compare the S&P 500 to Momentum, Value, Quality, Energy, Healthcare, Utilities, Materials, and Technology. The results reveal just how concentrated market leadership has become and why many diversified portfolios may appear to be lagging despite owning fundamentally strong companies. We also discuss the risks of performance-chasing, why semiconductor stocks have become such a large part of the index, and what investors should expect when market leadership eventually rotates into other sectors.
