Welcome to "Ahead in the Count," presented by BIP Wealth. Our Baseball Division combines their collegiate and professional baseball playing experience with financial acumen to provide expertise in life on and off the field. We aim to give ballplayers and their families a better understanding about their unique lifestyle, the opportunities that come from playing this game, and insight into the complex financial world. This is "Ahead in the Count," hosted by Nolan Alexander, from BIP Wealth. In this quarterly market update episode, Eric Cramer, Chief Investment Officer at BIP Wealth, along with Kyle Schmidt of the BIP Wealth Baseball Division hop on for a mid-2026 check-in on markets, tax strategy, and financial planning for professional baseball players and their families. The conversation covers Monte Carlo simulation and tax-efficient planning, a first look at BIP Wealth's short-term municipal bond strategy, insights on the wave of private equity exits expected later this year, a candid look at stretched valuations in the technology sector, a preview of how the midterm election landscape could shape tax and monetary policy, and a fascinating breakdown of what actually predicts life expectancy — plus why VO2 max matters more than you think. Whether you're a professional athlete navigating a signing bonus, an investor watching the S&P 500 and Russell 2500 diverge, or just curious about the financial world behind the game, this episode blends baseball, markets, and long-term planning.
