Khost has over 30 years of experience in private wealth and asset management.

'I'm thrilled that Lynn, Greg, Brook and Andrew have joined Voya IM. The Distribution team is very much in growth mode as we work to meet Voya IM's ambitious goals for the rest of 2025 and onward,' said Potesta. 'I am confident this team will bring the passion and expertise that will benefit Voya and our clients.'

VGC offers resources to improve advisor communication skills, deepen understanding of client behavior and build confidence in client interactions.
'We are committed to enhancing our Intermediary channel. As such, we made a concerted effort to provide our intermediary clients with not only the best products to meet their client's needs but also cutting-edge insights to help them meet their business needs,' said Potesta. 'Initial feedback from advisors has been overwhelmingly positive, and I look forward to working with Jason and Greg to develop VGC further.'

CAVA Q2 2025 Preview: Slowing Comps Test Profitability
CAVA Group (NYSE:CAVA) is scheduled to report its Q2 2025 financial results after the market closes on Tuesday, August 12. Analysts are forecasting a revenue of approximately $286 million, which would represent a 22% YoY increase. However, the consensus for adjusted EPS is $0.14, a projected decline of 18% from the prior year. Shares are down 25% year to date and well below the November 2024 all-time high of $172. Even so, it remainsmore than 100% above its June 2023 IPO price. A primary focus for investors will be on same-restaurant sales trends. Growth is expected to cool to mid-single-digit growth after a 10.8% gain last quarter, as tougher comparisons and softer traffic are likely behind the slowdown. The company has raised its full-year restaurant opening guidance, thus investors will want to hear whether those new restaurance are performing according to the targets and if pre-opening spending stays under control. On profitability, analysts will watch restaurant-level margins, which management has maintained in its guidance but face inflationary pressures from higher wage rates and produce costs. Any signs of supply chain stability or efficiency gains in labor scheduling might change the outlook for the second half. Lastly, management's guidance for the remainder of 2025 will matter and a reaffirmation of unit growth targets and stable margin outlook could help restore confidence after the recent share pullback. If not, with valuation still elevated versus peers, the stock could face more pressure. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

State Street Seizes Back $317B ETF Empire After 26 Years--Here's Why It Matters Now
State Street Corp. (NYSE:STT) is moving to bring the sales and marketing of its flagship Select Sector SPDR Funds back in-house after more than two decades of outsourcing. Beginning in December, State Street Global Advisors Funds Distributors will replace ALPS Inc. as the distributor for the 11-fund suite, which collectively manages about $317 billion in assets, according to a regulatory filing. This change means fees once paid to ALPS will now remain with State Street, though the bottom-line benefit will depend on sales and marketing expenses. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 7 Warning Sign with STT. The shift marks a notable change for some of the most recognizable products in the $12 trillion ETF industry. Since 1998, when the S&P 500 sector-tracking ETFs debuted, State Street had outsourced distribution and later marketing of these funds to ALPS. Now, products like the $84 billion Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLK) and the $51 billion Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLF) will be sold directly under State Street's own umbrella. The firm has begun hiring dedicated ETF sales specialists, a move that follows its recent asset management rebrand and suggests a push to consolidate brand identity and investor outreach. This isn't happening in isolation. Other legacy ETF managers are also exploring ways to capture more economics from their largest funds. In July, Invesco Ltd. sought shareholder approval to change the structure of its Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1 a step that could allow the firm to finally earn direct revenue from the massive vehicle. For State Street, reclaiming control over its Select Sector SPDR lineup could be more than an operational shift it may open the door to stronger alignment between product management, distribution strategy, and potential revenue growth.
