Alpine appears to be leading the race to sign Franco Colapinto for the 2025 F1 season, outpacing Red Bull due to their openness to a loan deal with Williams. Colapinto, who made his debut replacing Logan Sargeant at Williams and has already shown strong results, has become a rising talent in F1. His performances, particularly his top-10 finish at the United States Grand Prix, have caught the eye of several teams. Williams is reportedly willing to entertain moves that could allow Colapinto to gain experience elsewhere, provided it benefits his career trajectory. Red Bull’s interest in Colapinto was further fueled…

The drawn-out downturn in private market returns is hitting one group of investors especially hard: Ivy League university endowments. Leading US university endowments, many of which allocate outsized portions of their portfolios to private equity and venture capital, have underperformed the university average for the second year in a row, with prominent ones like Yale and Princeton lagging far behind their smaller peers, as the once lucrative asset class suffers from a plunge in dealmaking and stock listings. Top endowments have long used aggressive exposure to private investments in pursuit of excess returns they believe are out of reach through public…

Three investment return trends related to the green transition concern me. These apply across all sectors but to automotive in particular. Here is how I see it. 1. Pricing is challenging. The strong automotive demand during the COVID-19 pandemic was fueled largely by wealthier customers and is on the wane, especially for electric vehicles (EVs), which are often second vehicles priced as premium products. Until recently, automakers experienced bottlenecks with their finely tuned production systems. The mismatch between supply and demand adjusted pricing upward to reestablish equilibrium. Cheap financing and a shortage of used vehicles exacerbated this trend. According to…
If you’ve ever heard the term “portfolio rebalancing”, you’ve probably wondered what it is and why—or if—it’s important. I would argue that it is important, and should be properly done. Portfolio rebalancing is something that becomes necessary when your investment portfolio strays too far from its intended balance. For example, let’s say that you’ve taken a risk assessment and determined that 70% equities and 30% bonds is an appropriate portfolio for you. You buy the assets. Your stocks have a great run, and 6 months later they’ve gone up 20%. Unless bonds have similarly surged during those 6 months, your…
NuScale Power (NYSE: SMR) is an upstart looking to be at the forefront of what could be a massive overhaul of the nuclear power industry. That’s the hope, anyway. However, at least one notable utility industry veteran doesn’t think NuScale Power’s approach to nuclear energy will work out as well as investors seem to hope right now, given the stock’s rapid ascent of late (the stock is up 400% in a year!). Here’s how investors should be thinking about NuScale Power. It’s important to recognize right up front that NuScale Power is not for the faint of heart. First you…
