  Lotfi Karoui on Private Credit and the AI CapEx Supercycle 16.07.2026 49min

  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. Show notes: (2:24) The State of Direct Lending (9:24) Will Transparency or Liquidity Help (20:49) The Default Cycle in Credit has Begun (25:05) Return of the Financial Engineers (28:53) Financing the AI Super Cycle (40:33) What’s Compelling in Credit Markets (44:21) Revisiting the 60/40 Portfolio If you want to go deeper, check out a few of Lotfi’s articles mentioned in the episode: • The Credit Market Lens: Sharpe Is Back in Emerging Markets • Daily Pricing Is Not Daily Liquidity Sign up for The Credit Market Lens, a weekly newsletter Lotfi publishes on LinkedIn and PIMCO.com The discussion and content provided within this podcast is intended for informational purposes only and may not be appropriate for all investors.

  A Crude Interest: Greg Sharenow on Structural Changes in the Commodity Complex 06.07.2026 39min

  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 (11:03) The new face of the global energy complex (18:42) Commodities and three CapEx cycles (27:37) Will energy prices impact the economic outlook?

  Dan Ivascyn: Secular Shifts, Tail Risks, and Portfolio Resilience 17.06.2026 1h 6min

  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 If you enjoyed the episode, check out our other resources below: • Read: Secular Outlook: Rupture and Resilience • Video: Precision Over Prediction in Today’s Bond Market • Podcast: Money and Politics: Richard Clarida and Libby Cantrill on the New Fed Chair, Iran Conflict, and the 'Stag vs the Flation (Apple and Spotify) • Podcast: PIMCO Perspectives: When Geopolitics Becomes an Economic Input (Apple and Spotify) The discussion and content provided within this podcast is intended for informational purposes only and may not be appropriate for all investors.

  Commercial Real Estate Reset: Finding Value Across Debt and Equity 08.06.2026 51min

  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.

  Expect the Unexpected with Pramol Dhawan 24.02.2026 38min

  Stability, calm, and order are giving way to fragmentation, volatility, and surprise. In his most recent PIMCO Perspectives, co‑authored with Marc Seidner, Pramol Dhawan says that this shift makes 2026 a year when investors should “expect the unexpected.” He joins host Greg Hall to explore how this new world order is reshaping markets — from the opportunities volatility can unlock in global fixed income to the evolving rebalancing between stocks and bonds. They even get into why the world is tilting toward mercantilism, though thankfully, not in a way that forces you to dust off your economics textbooks.
