Practice Makes Perfect: Building a Well-Behaved Portfolio
Monday, September 14, 2026 • Duration 51:15
Even the most experienced investors can fall prey to one of the 150+ behavioral biases researchers have documented. But Dr. Anastasia Buyalskaya, a behavioral finance advisor to PIMCO, and Devin Ekeberg, PIMCO senior consultant in advisor education, believe the goal isn’t to rationalize them away; it’s to build frameworks that keep biased thinking from driving decision making.
Together with Greg Hall, they discuss:
The behavioral finance biases that hide in plain sight and how they can quietly shape investment decisions
How advisors can act as financial therapists, keeping clients level-headed when emotions run high
What AI really means for advice, both personal and financial, and why those AI compliments aren’t always so nice

Lotfi Karoui on Private Credit and the AI CapEx Supercycle
Thursday, July 16, 2026 • Duration 49:43
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.

A Crude Interest: Greg Sharenow on Structural Changes in the Commodity Complex
Monday, July 6, 2026 • Duration 39:56
We didn't rename the podcast… we're just drilling into commodities this
episode, and for good reason. Few asset classes sit at the center of so many disruptive forces right now. The global energy complex is contending with both the near-term shock of the Iran conflict and the long-term push for energy security. The AI infrastructure buildout is devouring power and raw materials, and reshoring and renewed defense spending are adding to demand pressures. Greg Sharenow, who leads PIMCO's commodity portfolio management group, joins Greg Hall to explain how these dynamics will test the balance between rising demand and disrupted supply – and why commodities deserve a close look from advisors.
Show notes:
(0:52) The beginning of the end of this phase
(7:04) Measuring what’s happened to global energy supply
(9:28) Left tail vs base case vs right tail

Dan Ivascyn: Secular Shifts, Tail Risks, and Portfolio Resilience
Wednesday, June 17, 2026 • Duration 01:06:08
Fresh off publishing PIMCO’s Secular Outlook, “Rupture and Resilience,” Group CIO Dan Ivascyn joins Greg Hall to discuss the structural forces likely to shape markets over the next five years.
From the pervasive role of AI in both equity and debt markets, to a macroeconomy increasingly driven by geopolitics, financial advisors face a new reality: long-term returns rely on preparing for the unexpected. True resilience requires a globally diversified approach both to generate returns and absorb macro shocks. Dan and Greg analyze these dynamics against today's core uncertainties: the Iran conflict, U.S. fiscal sustainability, and the capex “supercycle” powered by AI, defense, and global re-shoring and supply chain realignment.
Show notes:
(4:30) How politics are shaping economics
(11:50) Planning beyond the base case
(17:00) Why today’s bond math is favorable
(21:00) The Iran conflict & global diversification
(33:00) The state of U.S. creditworthiness
(38:00) Optimism and uncertainty around the CapEx super cycle
(49:00) The start of the credit default cycle
(54:00) The tipping point in financial engineering

Commercial Real Estate Reset: Finding Value Across Debt and Equity
Monday, June 8, 2026 • Duration 51:11
Commercial real estate is one of the few asset classes that went through a relatively recent recession and still offers attractive valuations, whether through lending or owning.
Seray Incoglu, Global Head of Asset Management for PIMCO Real Estate Credit, and Matt Tuten, who leads the commercial mortgage-backed securities team, join Greg Hall to assess where the market stands: resilience in multifamily and industrial, continued dislocation in office, and the unresolved question of how AI reshapes demand.
The conversation examines how the current cost basis, durable cash flows, and creditor rights differentiate CRE debt from corporate lending—particularly private direct lending—and where to find relative value between public and private real estate.
(2:23) The state of commercial real estate
(11:49) From strip malls to industrial spaces: where opportunities are emerging
(16:18) How AI may impact the modern workplace
