What separates great advisors today? According to David Chubak, Head of Wealth Management and Field Management at Edward Jones, it's the same qualities that have always mattered: trust, relationships, and a deep understanding of clients. David joins Greg Hall to explain why, even in the age of AI and endless information, human connection remains at the heart of great advice. Drawing on his own experience working with advisors, lessons from behavioral finance, and the values instilled by his grandparents, David shares a framework for building strong client relationships as we enter the "Golden Age of Advice."

From the pages of The Credit Market Lens to the Accrued Interest microphone, Lotfi Karoui joins host Greg Hall to explore why the focus on direct lending may be overshadowing the structural themes important to the future of credit markets. Together, they discuss the cyclical pressures weighing on business development companies and why liquidity alone may not resolve today’s challenges. Looking ahead, they explain why the AI CapEx super cycle, global energy reshoring, and renewed defense spending may test the market’s ability to absorb issuance. For advisors, these dynamics highlight the potential value of diversification in bonds and emerging markets.
