In this Daily Editorial, we are joined by Marc Chandler, Managing Partner at Bannockburn Global Forex and Editor of the Marc to Market website. Marc breaks down the massive moves in the precious metals market to end the month, with Silver surging over 7% to break $57/oz and significantly outperforming Gold. We discuss the macro drivers behind this rally, primarily the shift in market sentiment which is now pricing in an ~80% chance of a Federal Reserve rate cut in December. Marc provides his analysis on the weakening US Dollar, the tightening spreads between US and German debt, and the potential for a Bank of Japan rate hike next month. Key Discussion Points: Silver's Historic Breakout: Analyzing the $5+ move in Silver futures to over $57/oz. Is this the legendary "short squeeze" driven by dislocations in China, or a fundamental repricing? The Fed Pivot: US 10-Year yields are falling as the market aggressively prices in rate cuts for December and into 2026. Currency Markets: The US Dollar softens while the Yen strengthens on expectations of a BOJ hike. Marc also highlights the Australian Dollar as a standout. Equity Resilience: Despite valuation concerns, the S&P 500 continues to grind higher, fueled by liquidity and rate cut hopes. Sector Watch: A look at the Rare Earths sector, which remains in a downtrend despite the broader commodity boom.   Click here to visit Marc's site - Marc To Market   -------------------- For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks: The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/ Investment Disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Welcome to the one hundred fifty-sixth episode of the #ExpatChat podcast, where we explore the latest tax, investment, and financial issues affecting #AustralianExpats. In this episode, Atlas Wealth Group's Managing Directors Brett Evans and James Ridley discuss Where is the Australian Dollar Heading — diving into forecasts, currency drivers, and strategies for managing exchange rate movements. Throughout the episode, Brett and James review differing forecasts from major banks, exploring whether the Australian dollar could climb toward the 67–71 cent range. They unpack the key factors influencing the Aussie dollar's outlook, including US dollar weakness, Australia's improving interest rate differential, and shifting commodity prices. The discussion also touches on the US Federal Reserve's cautious approach to rate cuts, which has steadied the greenback and limited its depreciation against the AUD. Brett shares practical guidance on hedging and dollar-cost averaging when repatriating wealth — reminding expats not to stay anchored to historical exchange rates. Whether you're managing income abroad, repatriating funds, or simply watching the markets, this episode offers valuable perspectives to help you navigate the Australian dollar with confidence.

The Kiwi dollar continues to weaken against the Australian dollar, hitting a three-year low last week. The NZD is currently trading at 88 cents off the back of soft GDP growth and rate cuts, and concerns are raising as China's economic rebound could widen the gap further. Investment director for Craigs investment partners Mark Lister told Mike Hosking that New Zealand's rate cuts are having a stronger impact on the economy than Australia's. 'We are obviously looking at more rate cuts than we expected and not for the right reasons.' LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you're planning an overseas trip, a weaker Australian dollar could mean you'll be paying more, whether it's for hotels, shopping, or that morning coffee in Paris. The Aussie dollar has been making headlines lately, caught in the ripple effects of market volatility tied to US tariffs introduced during Donald Trump's presidency. In this podcast, we speak with an international financial expert Dr Asjeet Lamba, who breaks down what's going on—and whether all the talk about the Aussie dollar's “struggle to rise” is something we should be worried about.

The Australian dollar is at its lowest level against the US dollar in five years. That hurts travellers going to the United States for a holiday, but some economic commentators think it also means Australia's Reserve Bank should hold off longer on cutting interest rates. Our chief business correspondent Ian Verrender doesn't agree. Today, he explains why China and Trump are largely behind the fall in the Australian dollar and why interest rate cuts should still be on the table. Ian says the strength of the US dollar, driven by Trump's tariffs and economic policies, is a major factor in the Australian dollar's decline. Featured: Ian Verrender, ABC chief business correspondentKey Topics:Australian dollar declineUS dollar strengthTrump's tariffsReserve Bank interest ratesLocal exportersImport pricesChina's economic slowdownEconomic policiesCurrency speculation

If there is any one investment product that has experienced a true boom over the last 10 years, it is exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and exchange-traded products (ETPs) more broadly.  The number of listed products has increased by 17.5 times in Australia during the last decade alone. More than 300 products are now listed across the ASX and CBOE exchanges and two million Australians have at least one ETF in their portfolio. And, as if you need more proof of the growth of ETPs, 2024 marked the first time that inflows outpaced those going into unlisted managed funds.  So if we've seen this growth over the last decade, what could the next 10 years hold? In this episode of The Rules of Investing, we put this and other questions to Tamara Haban-Beer Stats, Director and ETF/Index Investments Specialist at BlackRock Australia. BlackRock is the world's largest asset manager and its ETF arm iShares runs 49 ETPs in the Australian market. In this episode, Tamara also discusses the key mega forces that BlackRock believes could drive markets over the long run, where they are overweight in portfolios and the asset classes they believe could see the biggest growth within ETPs over the coming years.

A top investment strategist has predicted the Australian dollar will drop to a record-low of US 40 cents in as soon as five years, as the world begins to enter a global recession. Mr Ramanathan Karuppiah explains more - ஆஸ்திரேலியா டாலரின் மதிப்பு சமீபத்தில் குறைத்துள்ளது. இதற்கான காரணம் என்ன? இதனால் ஏற்படவுள்ள பாதிப்பு என்ன போன்ற கேள்விகளுக்கு பதில் தருகிறார் நிதிதுறையில் பல ஆண்டுகள் அனுபவம் கொண்ட பிரிஸ்பனை சேர்ந்த திரு ராமநாதன் கருப்பையா. அவரோடு உரையாடுகிறார் செல்வி.

In this episode, Mike and Rory discuss the importance of understanding the correlation between commodities and the respective FX pair. The currencies highlighted in the podcast include Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar, Euro, Great British Pound, Norwegian Krone, and US Dollar. At the beginning the blokes mention how 2 of the main traded FX pairs (EURUSD & GBPUSD) are not directly pegged to commodities rather the moves are based on macroeconomics such as changes in interest rates, politics, or other economic indications.Mike and Rory discuss the importance of understanding the country behind the currency. For example, when looking at CAD or NOK, it's important to understand that their main export is oil therefore demand for their currency has a strong correlation with the demand for oil. Looking at the chart of USDCAD or USDNOK and overlaying the WTI Crude or Brent price you will be able to see a strong correlation between the two. Rory has also shared resources in the App to help you calculate the correlation between two variables such as USDCAD and WTI Crude prices.Mike also discusses the importance of having a macro picture and not exclusively focusing on technical analysis. He explains if these ideas were presented to serious investors such as those at Investment banks that they would simply laugh you out of the room. Mike explains that you need a solid fundamental picture with trade data of the country and all aspects of the macro covered and only use technical to gauge entry and exit positions.Download The Two Blokes Trading APP
