## Resource

The March 2026 Marks on the Markets episode arrives at a defining moment: a major U.S.-Israel military operation in Iran, a cracking AI investment thesis, and a small-cap rotation that may finally be underway. Richard Cunningham brings together John Coleman, Matt Monson of Sovereign's Capital, and Brian McClard of Blue Trust for an unfiltered look at what faith-driven investors need to know right now.
