What if the firm disrupting the ETF industry launched 197 funds in its first year — and priced them cheaper than Vanguard?
Jeff Weniger, Chief Investment Strategist at Corgi Invest, joins hosts Pierre Daillie and Mike Philbrick on Raise Your Average for a wide-ranging conversation that moves from the macro landscape of mid-2026 — rising yields, a surprisingly hot economy, and the great AI infrastructure build-out — to the audacious product shelf of one of the ETF industry's boldest new entrants. Jeff brings his trademark macro clarity, market history, and plain-spoken honesty to a conversation that covers bubbles, bond vigilantes, copper, fiscal profligacy, and the case for precision over breadth in portfolio construction.
