We’ve got a real treat for you today on the 💵 ℙ𝕠𝕨𝕖𝕣𝕗𝕦𝕝 𝕎𝕠𝕞𝕖𝕟 𝕚𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕝𝕝𝕤𝕥𝕣𝕖𝕖𝕥 & 𝕄𝕠𝕟𝕖𝕪💵 series on Heads Talk. Not just because of the exceptional guest (who I’ll introduce in a moment), but because of what she brings. A rare blend of market intelligence, macro strategy, and the kind of insight that shapes how institutions move billions.
You know those conversations where every sentence is a data drop? This was that. Clear-eyed, forensic, and ahead of the curve. We dove into the mechanics behind the market calls that ripple through Wall Street.
And if that weren’t enough, we revisited one of my favourite themes. Back in 2021, I first spoke to the brilliant Schaad about the eerie echoes of the 1920s. Since then, a wave of 2.0s has been unfolding… could one of them be 1929? You’ll have to hear what the experts think.
Gina Martin Adams, Chief Equity Strategist and Global Head of Portfolio Strategy at Bloomberg, is a leading authority in equity strategy and portfolio management, known for her expertise in fundamental, quantitative, and technical analysis. A top-ranked strategist, she has shaped market outlooks, sector strategies, and investment allocation at major institutions for decades, leveraging data-driven insights, macro trends, and sector rotation models.

I had a fantastic time speaking with my next guest for the 💵 ℙ𝕠𝕨𝕖𝕣𝕗𝕦𝕝 𝕎𝕠𝕞𝕖𝕟 𝕚𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕝𝕝𝕤𝕥𝕣𝕖𝕖𝕥 & 𝕄𝕠𝕟𝕖𝕪💵 series on HeadsTalk. Rarely do I meet someone who so perfectly mirrors my twin obsessions: mathematics and art. We talked about that familiar tug-of-war between the analytical and the artistic—when your 'maths brain' and your 'creative soul' keep jostling for airtime. It’s a paradox I know well (once explored it in an article some years back), and it was a joy to unpack it with someone who lives it just as vividly. The promo video for this series gave you a subtle glimpse - but trust me, the full conversation, both on and off mic, was a tonic.
Mical Jeanlyn-White, Wall Street Executive, MD JP Morgan Chase and currently the CEO of Wealthmore is a powerhouse in the financial industry. She led, for JP Morgan, a $22 Billion Dollar Credit Card Portfolio and launched Innovative Products like My Chase Plan and the Slate and Sapphire Cards.

◽️Wall Street's Evolution: Structural Changes, Automation & Talent Shifts
◽️New Generation of Wealth Builders
