But while investors focus on the stocks, Brian Carney, Portfolio Manager at Mawer Investment Management, is watching the credit markets—and he sees risks most investors are ignoring. \nOn this episode, Brian, who manages the Mawer Global Credit Opportunities Fund explains why Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, Oracle and others are becoming some of the largest borrowers in the world, why credit markets may be underpricing risk, and why he believes we're getting closer to a \"reckoning\" after years of easy money and aggressive lending. He also shares why he's skeptical of parts of the private credit market, what surprised him about SpaceX's investment-grade rating, and why the next big opportunity could emerge when investors least expect it.\nBrian also makes the case that investors are too complacent about America's fiscal situation. With deficits running at historically elevated levels and government debt continuing to climb, he argues the bigger risk may not be a U.S. default—but a shift in investor sentiment that forces borrowing costs higher. What happens if investors start demanding more compensation to finance Washington's spending? And what could that mean for stocks, bonds, and the broader economy?\nIn Pro Picks Brian shares three high-conviction bond ideas, including AI infrastructure player CoreWeave, fertilizer producer FMC Corp, and energy company Continental Resources. He breaks down where he's finding attractive yields, how he's assessing downside risk, and why he's keeping dry powder ready for a potential market dislocation.\nWhether you're an equity investor, bond investor, or simply trying to understand how AI is reshaping global capital markets, this conversation offers a perspective you won't hear often.\nTimestamps\n00:00 Trailer\n02:15 Intro 04:30...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/er9NR63MREFV6i2rlZX8f-yMY6gNSK83fNUOzBPoSt8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zZmQy/OWMwNmEzY2Y0YTg1/NjM4MjQ3Y2NjMWYy/Zjk1My5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
