SHARESIES · MARKET UPDATE · Week of 28 September 2026Jacki Neumann, Head of Capital Markets ↑ WHAT'S UP — The S&P 500 rose 1.2% for the week and the Nasdaq gained 2.1%, hitting a record high.

Microsoft added 4.5% on reports of Copilot discounts for business customers. ↓ WHAT’S DOWN — The ASX 200 fell 0.8%, its fourth straight weekly loss, and closed at its lowest since mid-June. It’s down around 4.5% for September, with utilities the weakest sector last week at around −5.2%. Oracle fell over 7% after invoking force majeure on its New Mexico data centre, citing power and permit delays. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — The US 10-year Treasury yield topped 5.2% on Thursday, driven by strong business data, weak Treasury auctions, and hawkish Fed comments. Markets now see a 66% chance of an October Fed hike. In Australia, unemployment rose to 4.6%, the highest since late 2021, though employment grew more than expected. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — The RBA’s latest decision comes on Tuesday afternoon, with a hike to 4.60% around 90% priced in. August household spending is also out Tuesday. Wednesday brings Australian inflation, building approvals and private sector credit, plus China's manufacturing PMI and US core PCE. US non-farm payrolls land Friday. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE — The Fed, RBA, and RBNZ all have hikes on the table. RBNZ Governor Anna Breman warned inflation will run higher if oil prices persist, and markets price a 70% chance of an October hike.

(SHOW OPEN): Aaron Judge is better off focusing on the bigger picture rather than rushing back for a series the Yankees can win without him.

“You just need to strengthen your pelvic floor.” Maybe you've heard this from a doctor, a friend, a trainer—or good ol' Google.

This episode of Rest, Eat, Move explores why no single health marker—whether Apo B, LDL, insulin, calcium score, cortisol, or another lab value—should be viewed in isolation. The conversation argues for looking at trends and the “big picture,” combining blood work with foundational measures such as resting heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, sleep, nutrition, movement, and how you actually feel. Matt and Chris emphasize shifting from simply reacting to abnormal numbers toward understanding what may be driving them and focusing on sustainable behaviors that support long-term health.#HealthAndWellness #HeartHealth #Cholesterol #ApoB #HealthyLivingontargetliving.com

In this special PCOS Awareness Month episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, Ashlene addresses one of the most common and painful experiences women with PCOS share: working hard, trying everything, and still not getting lasting results. This episode reframes that experience entirely. The issue is almost never effort. It is almost always missing context. When women understand the physiology connecting their symptoms, something fundamental shifts. Not just what they do, but how they feel about themselves and their body. This is a framework clarity episode designed to create emotional relief, physiological understanding, and genuine readiness for what comes next.Why PCOS Advice Feels Confusing and ContradictoryMost PCOS advice is built in silos. Diet advice for weight. Supplement advice for cycles. Lifestyle advice for energy. But the body does not work in silos. Symptoms that seem unrelated are almost always connected through deeper physiological patterns. When advice treats them separately, results are partial at best and confusing at worst.Women Are Missing Context, Not EffortOne of the most important reframes in this episode: women with PCOS are not failing because they haven't tried hard enough. They are missing the physiological context that would make their efforts land. Understanding that distinction changes everything about how women approach their health and how they relate to their own body.How Symptoms Connect Through PhysiologyWeight, fertility, cycles, cravings, mood, inflammation, and energy are not seven separate problems. They are seven expressions of the same underlying system under strain. This episode walks through the physiological connections between symptoms that most advice treats as unrelated, and explains why addressing root causes often creates shifts across multiple areas at once.Why Generic PCOS Advice Often FailsGeneric advice is built for the average. But individual women have different physiology, different root causes, and different environments. When advice designed for the average is applied to a specific body, results are unpredictable. This episode explores why personalization is not optional and what it means to build support that's genuinely tailored to your body.Understanding Metabolism and Hormones TogetherInsulin signaling, stress hormones, thyroid function, and reproductive hormones do not operate independently. They communicate constantly. Understanding how they influence each other is the foundation of root-cause awareness and the key to why isolated symptom treatment so rarely produces lasting results.Sustainable Hormone Support: What It Actually Looks LikeSustainable support starts with curiosity rather than restriction, building a supportive environment rather than imposing a perfect protocol, and giving the body the consistency it needs to respond. This episode explores what it feels like to work with the body rather than against it and why that approach creates results that actually last.PCOS Awareness Month: The Awareness That Matters MostReal PCOS awareness is not just knowing the name of the condition. It is understanding it deeply enough to feel hopeful rather than overwhelmed. This episode is Ashlene's contribution to PCOS Awareness Month: a clear, grounded, emotionally intelligent case for why understanding the bigger picture changes everything.Take the Root Cause QuizLearn more about the PCOS Root Cause BootcampLet's continue the conversation on Instagram! What did you find helpful in this episode and what follow-up questions do you have?The full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at: https://nourishedtohealthy.com/ep-196

SHARESIES · MARKET UPDATE · Week of 21 September 2026Jacki Neumann, Head of Capital Markets ↑ WHAT'S UP — New Zealand was the standout, with the NZX 50 up 1.2% after Q2 GDP beat expectations at 0.2% for the quarter, lifting annual growth to a two-year high of 2.6%. The Nasdaq also edged up 0.7%, even as the broader US market drifted. ↓ WHAT'S DOWN — The S&P 500 slipped 0.1% and the ASX 200 dipped 0.1%, with hawkish central banks and elevated oil keeping a lid on equities. Tech sentiment took a knock from an AI safety essay by Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, which called for a slowdown in model scaling. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — The Fed's 25 basis point hike came with a hawkish message, as Chair Warsh said he'd be "hard pressed to call current policy restrictive" and 16 of 18 officials pencilled in at least one more hike this year, pushing the 10-year Treasury yield above 5% to its highest since 2007. RBA Governor Bullock warned that August's flagged inflation risks are now arriving, lifting the odds of a September hike to around 85%. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — Governor Bullock and Assistant Governor Hunter both make public appearances on Tuesday, before Thursday's August employment figures feed directly into the RBA's rate decision next Tuesday. Overseas, Chinese President Xi Jinping's state visit to Washington begins Thursday, with AI high on the agenda. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE — Globally, things are still skewing hawkish, with the Fed, Bank of England and Bank of Japan all signalling or delivering tighter policy. Because US Treasuries anchor asset prices worldwide, a 10-year yield above 5% squeezes equity valuations everywhere by discounting future earnings more heavily. With oil still above US$100 and the RBA now odds-on to hike again, the tension between persistent inflation and stretched borrowers is only building.

What happens when we let one difficult moment define our entire story? In this youth devotion, we explore the reminder that one puzzle piece doesn't reveal the whole picture. Through Scripture, real-life experiences, and honest conversations about fear, anxiety, relationships, school, family, and the future, we're reminded that God sees what we cannot. Your current circumstances are not the final chapter. Fear may tell you the worst is coming, but faith reminds you that God is still working, even when you can't see how the pieces will fit together. We'll talk about biblical hope, Jesus as our anchor in life's storms, changing our perspective, and the importance of refusing isolation by doing life together.   Whatever piece of the puzzle you're holding right now, God sees the whole picture and He isn't finished with your story.

This episode is part of our four-part Avocados in Practice mini-series, sponsored by Avocados – Love One Today®. Today, we're asking whether we're focusing on the right things when it comes to diabetes nutrition. When someone is diagnosed with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, nutrition conversations often become all about sugar and carbohydrates. But are we missing the bigger picture?

The Bigger Picture | Week 2 | Sean Mabee

When life feels uncertain, it's easy to focus on what's right in front of us instead of what God is doing long-term. In Episode 5 of our Haggai series, we dive into the prophecy of the latter house's glory, God's ownership of all things, and real-life proof that He takes care of His children.

How can global businesses turn corporate purpose into lasting social impact, and communicate that work without losing public trust? Meet social impact pioneer: Charlotte West. Charlotte has spent more than three decades navigating that challenge. As Vice President of Global Corporate Communications at Lenovo and a Board Director of the Lenovo Foundation, she works at the intersection of technology, business leadership, reputation and positive social change. Her global role spans internal and external communications, executive positioning, ESG storytelling, social media, crisis response and reputation management. She also helps guide the Lenovo Foundation, which works to give under-represented communities greater access to technology and STEM education. Charlotte began her career at specialist technology communications agency Harvard, where she spent 16 years and rose to Board Director. An early encounter with corporate social impact came through her work on Sky's Bigger Picture programme. It demonstrated how communications could do more than promote a company: it could engage employees, strengthen partnerships and help effective community organisations reach a wider audience. She joined Lenovo in 2011 and has since led communications across the UK, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia-Pacific. Working within a company operating across 180 markets has shaped her belief that global inclusion strategies must respond to local cultures and realities, rather than imposing a single Western perspective. In this episode of Social Impact Pioneers, Charlotte explores the responsibilities that come with corporate influence. Together we discuss how businesses can build long-term, balanced partnerships; support disaster relief, community programmes and employee volunteering; and use their scale to amplify the work of smaller organisations. Charlotte also confronts one of the central dilemmas facing corporate leaders: how to talk credibly about purpose and ESG without slipping into performative communications. We talk about why reputation should be independently measured, how responsible business creates trust, and why companies must understand their wider impact on employees, families, suppliers and communities. Looking ahead, she reflects on artificial intelligence as both a defining societal challenge and a potential “force multiplier” for small charities; And the growing importance of human resilience as businesses and civil society organisations contend with uncertainty, funding pressures and rapid technological change.

You used to be able to jump, sneeze, run, or make it home from Target without thinking twice about your bladder… And now? You're leaking. You're peeing “just in case.” You know exactly where every bathroom is. Or the second you pull into your driveway your bladder suddenly decides THIS IS AN EMERGENCY.

SHARESIES · MARKET UPDATE · Week of 14 September 2026Jacki Neumann, Head of Capital Markets ↑ WHAT'S UP — Oil was the big climber, with Brent crude rising as high as US$108 a barrel on Thursday — its highest since May — before settling around US$105 after fresh US–Iran strikes. Oracle was a bright spot, jumping 7% after hours on strong results as revenue rose 30% and cloud infrastructure revenue surged over 120%. ↓ WHAT'S DOWN — Equities fell broadly, with the ASX 200 down around 3% — dragged by an 8.6% slide in tech and a 3.9% fall in materials — while the NZX 50 lost 2.8% and US indices slipped, the S&P 500 off 0.8% and the Nasdaq 0.7%. Sentiment soured at home too, with consumer confidence falling 5.2% and NAB's business conditions index turning negative for the first time in six years. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — The bond sell-off deepened, even as the US Treasury tripled its long-dated buyback operation to US$6 billion. The 10-year yield pushed toward 5%, its highest since mid-2007. In-line August CPI of 3.4% did little to help, lifting the odds of a September Fed hike to around 85%. Meanwhile, Australian 10-year yields climbed to 5.37%, their highest since 2011. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — It's a week packed with central bank decisions: the Fed on Wednesday (now favouring a hike), the Bank of England on Thursday (expected to hold), and the Bank of Japan on Friday (tipped to hike). RBA Governor Bullock fronts a parliamentary committee on Friday, and New Zealand's Q2 GDP lands Thursday. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE — Markets are still focused on the global repricing of interest rate risk, with the return of oil prices stoking inflation fears and driving bond yields higher. Central banks are leaning hawkish — the Fed, the RBA, and even the Bank of Japan — putting pressure on borrowers. With three hikes already hitting Australians this year, there’s a growing gap between a slowing real economy and still-rising rates.

The Bigger Picture | Week 1 | Alex Hotz

Sit up straight. Pull your shoulders back. Tuck your pelvis. Engage your core. Stop slouching. Sound familiar?

SHARESIES · MARKET MOVEMENTS · Jacki Neumann, Head of Capital Markets at Sharesies Note: Filmed Monday 31 August ↑ WHAT'S UP — US indices edged higher, with the S&P 500 up 0.5% and the Nasdaq up 0.9%, while the ASX 200 added 0.4%, propelled by results including Qantas’ 4.8% jump on a $2.06 billion underlying profit, Coles rising 5%, and NEXTDC beating guidance with revenue up 16% on surging AI infrastructure demand. ↓ WHAT'S DOWN — The NZX 50 fell 1.5% in its worst week since May, snapping three weeks of gains. DroneShield sank 11% despite a 74% revenue jump as it swung to a $32.2 million loss, Air New Zealand posted a $336 million full-year pre-tax loss, and Xero drew a 70.6% protest vote against its remuneration report. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — Australia's July CPI ran hotter than expected at 3.5%, with trimmed mean inflation at 3.6%, lifting the odds of an RBA hike by year-end to 78% from 67%. At Jackson Hole, Fed Chair Kevin Warsh’s tone was hawkish, pushing September US rate-rise odds from around 36% to nearly 60%. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — The RBNZ meets Wednesday, with markets expecting a 25 basis point hike from 2.5%, and Australia's Q2 GDP lands the same day. In the US, the August employment report on Friday will be a key read ahead of the Fed's next decision on September 16. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE — Inflation is proving stickier than hoped, with a hot Australian CPI and a hawkish Warsh pushing rate-hike expectations sharply higher on both sides of the Pacific. The AI build-out still looks robust — Nvidia flagged hyperscaler capex near US$800 billion this year — but its warning on shrinking margins is a reminder that even the AI winners face cost pressure.

What do you do when your body says, “Ouch”? Do you immediately stop because you're afraid something is wrong? Or do you ignore it, push through, and hope it goes away? Pain can feel scary and confusing—especially when you're trying to heal, get stronger, or return to activities you love. But pain isn't always a simple stop sign. Pain is communication. And communication needs interpretation. In this episode, we're talking about shifting the way we respond to pain. Instead of immediately fearing it or ignoring it, what if we learned to get curious about what our bodies are trying to tell us? Because listening to your body doesn't always mean stopping. Sometimes it means adjusting. Sometimes it means resting. Sometimes it means getting help. And sometimes it means realizing you're okay to keep going. In This Episode We Explore Why we tend to either fear pain or ignore it Why pain doesn't always equal damage How factors beyond an injury can influence the pain experience Why the behavior of your pain can give you useful information Questions to ask yourself when something hurts The difference between normal exercise challenge and ignoring your body's signals A simple green-light, yellow-light, red-light way to think about symptoms How modifying a movement can help you learn more about what your body needs Why connection and body awareness can build confidence instead of fear Why This Matters When something hurts, it's easy to immediately think: “Something is wrong.” But it's also easy to swing too far in the opposite direction and decide: “I'll just push through it.” Neither response leaves much room for listening. Learning to pay attention to what you're feeling, when you're feeling it, how long it lasts, and what changes it can help you make more intentional decisions about movement. The goal isn't to become afraid of every sensation. And it isn't to ignore your body's signals in the name of getting stronger. It's learning the difference between challenging your body and ignoring your body. The Big Takeaway The next time something hurts during movement, instead of immediately asking: “Is this bad?” Try asking: “What is my body asking me to notice right now?” Then: Pause. Notice. Adjust. Reassess. Maybe your body needs you to change the range, load, speed, position, or breath. Maybe it needs recovery. Maybe it needs professional evaluation. Or maybe after checking in, you realize you're okay to continue. Listening doesn't always mean stopping. It means responding. And the better you become at listening, the more confidently you can make decisions about your body. Ready to Understand the Bigger Picture? If you've been listening to the last few episodes, you're probably noticing a theme: I don't want you endlessly searching for someone to give you the perfect exercise. I want you to understand the body you're actually living in. That's a huge reason I created Healing Beyond Kegels. Pelvic floor symptoms aren't simply problems we throw exercises at. Your breath, pressure, core, movement, strength, stress, nervous system, and the rest of your body are all part of the conversation. Healing Beyond Kegels is designed to help you zoom out, connect those dots, and start understanding your body differently. It's coming soon, and I can't wait to share it with you. Until then, remember: Connection first. Intention over perfection.

A new analysis out of Japan says a dementia drug might ease Long COVID fatigue and depression. But it's basically a reanalysis of the same trial that already failed back in 2025, and even where it helped, results were mixed. The reanalysis splits people by whether they had a reactivated herpesvirus. Evan H. Hirsch, MD breaks down what that virus is actually doing to your brain, why the drug only helped part of the group and made others worse, and why chasing one virus and one brain chemical never gets to the real cause. He also shares how a client recovered by addressing all of the Toxic 5, the five root causes behind almost every case of Long COVID and chronic fatigue. In this episode, you'll learn: Why the new Japan analysis is actually a reanalysis of the same JAMA trial that already found no benefit in 110 people, and why results stayed mixed even where it helped How HHV6B, a herpesvirus that reactivates after COVID, produces a protein called SITH1 that drains acetylcholine and drives brain fog Why treating one reactivated virus or one brain chemical never resolves Long COVID on its own What the Toxic 5 are, and why nervous system dysfunction, what Dr. Patrick Porter calls neurological lock, is one of the five root causes How a client recovered by addressing all five root causes together, not just the reactivated virus driving her brain fog Discover your fatigue score and the root causes keeping you stuck: https://myfatiguescore.com Free Fatigue Masterclass: https://fixyourfatigue.com See real results: https://energymdmethod.com/results Chapters: 00:00 - Introduction 00:25 - What the New Japan Analysis Found 01:39 - Why the Results Were Still Mixed 02:17 - Why Donepezil Misses the Bigger Picture 02:54 - The Toxic 5 and Neurological Lock 04:08 - Case Study: A Client's Recovery 05:55 - Why Full Recovery Takes Time Subscribe to the EnergyMD Podcast for weekly conversations with leading experts on resolving ME/CFS and Long COVID by addressing the real root causes. .

What if finding the “perfect” exercise isn't actually the thing that moves you forward? I recently told a patient that I didn't really care what exercise she did—which probably sounds like a strange thing to hear from a physical therapist! But what I meant was that I cared far less about choosing the perfect exercise and far more about what was happening in her body while she was doing it. In this episode, we're talking about why two people can do the exact same exercise and have completely different experiences—and why learning to notice your breath, pressure, tension, symptoms, and overall connection can be more valuable than constantly searching for the “right” movement. Because the goal isn't perfect exercise. It's learning how to move with intention, awareness, and confidence. In This Episode We Explore Why I told a patient I didn't care what exercise she chose Why we get so caught up searching for the “best” pelvic floor or core exercise How the same movement can look completely different inside two different bodies What I'm actually paying attention to when I watch a patient move The relationship between breath, pressure, tension, symptoms, and movement Why intention over perfection matters How awareness helps you make better decisions about your body Why learning to listen to your body can ultimately build confidence and trust A simple way to approach an exercise you're already doing differently this week Why This Matters When you're dealing with leaking, pelvic pressure, pain, core weakness, or simply trying to get stronger, it's easy to believe there's a specific exercise you're missing. But healing isn't about collecting more exercises. It's about understanding you. When you learn to notice how your body responds during movement, you can begin making adjustments instead of immediately assuming an exercise is “good” or “bad.” And over time, that awareness can help you move away from fear and toward something much more powerful: trusting yourself to move. Ready to Understand the Bigger Picture? This connection-first approach is one of the reasons I created Healing Beyond Kegels. Pelvic floor healing isn't just about finding the right Kegel, core exercise, or stretch. Your breath, core, pelvic floor, pressure, movement patterns, nervous system, and the rest of your body are all part of the conversation. Healing Beyond Kegels will help you zoom out and understand how those pieces work together—so you can stop chasing random exercises and start making sense of what your body is actually telling you. Healing Beyond Kegels is coming soon. Stay connected  by Downloading the Pelvic Floor, Core and More APP for all the details! Link below!   Want More Support?

SHARESIES · MARKET MOVEMENTS · 17 AUGUST 2026Jacki Neumann, Head of Capital Markets at Sharesies Note: Filmed Monday 17 August ↑ WHAT’S UP — US markets saw slight gains, with the S&P 500 up 0.4% and the Nasdaq up 0.2%, while the NZX 50 added 0.2%. Super Micro jumped 19% on an earnings beat and upbeat guidance, and Commonwealth Bank posted a record annual cash profit of $10.98 billion, up 7%. ↓ WHAT'S DOWN — The ASX 200 fell 1.6%, dragged by financials: Westpac lost almost 6% after a 20% drop in mortgage applications, while Suncorp's and IAG's profits fell 44% and 25% respectively. In the US, solid numbers didn't prevent declines, with RocketLab down about 7%, Cisco 5% and AST SpaceMobile 4% despite reporting record or fast-growing revenue. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — The RBA held at 4.35% but Governor Bullock struck a hawkish tone, refusing to rule out further hikes on inflation concerns. In contrast, US core CPI eased to a multi-year low of 2.5% and core PPI slowed to 4.2%, cutting the odds of a September Fed hike to 28%. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — Australian earnings ramp up, with NAB's update rounding out the big four banks and results due from JB Hi-Fi, BHP, Fortescue, CSL and Cochlear among others. The FOMC's July minutes land Wednesday and Australia's July unemployment rate follows on Thursday. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE — Australian bank earnings showed resilience but growing exposure to a cooling housing market. In the US, AI and space infrastructure investments stalled despite strong revenue growth, with investors zeroing in on losses, margins, and execution risks. Meanwhile, a hawkish RBA is still weighing hikes just as softening US inflation nudges the Fed the other way.

This should be it for coup gate questioning of the Prime Minister. Bruce Cotterill's piece over the weekend in the NZ Herald I hope, and more importantly actually I think, represents a growing feeling in this country among middle New Zealand that the superficiality of what the media obsess in is not really what counts. And what counts is the record and, as Bruce very clearly lays out, the record is not a bad one - from crime, to education, to exports there is a very good story to be told. Perhaps, and the Government might want to work a bit harder on this, the only story this election outside the record of achievement is tax. One side want to tax us more. The side in Government doesn't. It's that simple. In a country that has been through what we have for the past seven or so years, we are fed up with tax and the constant raiding of our pockets by people who have no other ideas than having you and I pay for everything. Anyway Luxon was at our Newstalk ZB 100th party on Friday night and everyone commented on his speech, which was kind, self deprecating and funny. "Why couldn't we see more of that," they asked. My answer is the country is not a party and when you see the Prime Minister he isn't giving birthday speeches. It's the old issue they have argued all along; meet the bloke and you like him but watch him in a 20 second news clip and he can look troubled. My guess from the mood in the room on Friday is it was the opposite of what you probably read over the weekend, which was "Luxon is done for", "National are mortally wounded". I think last Wednesday enhanced Luxon. It showed balls, it showed self-belief and it showed courage. Most of us like that stuff. In a caucus of 48 does he have some self-absorbed dickheads? Yes, but that's not his fault. It's not a reason to be derailed. The big picture should never be interrupted .by the trials and tribulations of the small-thinker. By the time we vote this will be yet another non-event in a campaign full of things we thought were a big deal, until they weren't. If you're bullish, and I am, last Wednesday could be the making of him. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SHARESIES · MARKET MOVEMENTS · 11 AUGUST 2026Jacki Neumann, Head of Capital Markets at Sharesies Note: Filmed Monday 10 August ↑ WHAT’S UP — The S&P 500 hit a new record close to finish the week up 3.6%, the Nasdaq up 5.2% in its best week since May, and the ASX 200 climbing 3.2% to its own new record. Strong corporate earnings helped power the rally: Palantir jumped 29.5% after 93% revenue growth, AMD posted record quarterly revenue of US$11.5 billion, and SpaceX surged around 23% on its first public results. ↓ WHAT’S DOWN — ResMed shares fell after a mixed underlying result. Oil was choppy, falling initially on hopes of a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, only to climb later in the week as Iran moved to restrict US and Israeli vessels. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — The US July jobs report shed 23,000 jobs against expectations to gain around 80,000, even as the unemployment rate fell to 4.1%. Markets read it as easing Fed pressure, cutting September rate-hike odds to 41% from 55%. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — The RBA decides on Tuesday, with a hold at 4.35% expected, and US July CPI and PPI will test whether price pressures are easing after the oil run-up. Reporting season continues with RocketLab, Cisco and Super Micro in the US, and CBA, ANZ, Westpac, QBE, IAG and Suncorp locally. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE — Records across Wall Street and the ASX show a firmly risk-on market, powered by strong earnings and tentative signs of easing Middle East tensions. Appetite remains for the AI and growth trade, demonstrated by Palantir, AMD, and SpaceX. But unsettled oil prices and the impact of a soft US jobs print sit in the background as potential swing factors.

You've probably heard both sides of Dr. McCullough's protocol: some people say it changed their lives, while others say it only helped temporarily. So what's the difference? Dr. McCullough's protocol has gotten a lot of attention in the Long COVID community, and for good reason. It uses three over-the-counter supplements to clear lingering spike protein from the body, and the research behind it holds up. In this episode, Evan H. Hirsch, MD explains why the protocol can work, why progress sometimes stalls, and what may be missing from the bigger picture. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why the research behind Dr. McCullough's protocol actually holds up • Why clearing the spike protein often helps at first, then stalls • The other root causes this protocol never touches: heavy metals, chemicals, mold, and a nervous system stuck in survival mode • What this looks like in people recovering from Long COVID • Why relief doesn't last unless you address all of the Toxic 5     • Discover your fatigue score and the root causes keeping you stuck: https://myfatiguescore.com • Free Fatigue Masterclass: https://fixyourfatigue.com • See real results: https://energymdmethod.com/results     Chapters: 00:00 - Introduction 00:30 - Inside Dr. McCullough's Spike Protocol 01:53 - The Toxic 5: The Bigger Picture 02:50 - What the Protocol Doesn't Touch 03:19 - The Bucket Analogy 03:45 - From Plateau to Full-Time Again 05:37 - Evan's Take on the Protocol     Subscribe to the EnergyMD Podcast for weekly conversations with leading experts on resolving ME/CFS and Long COVID by addressing the real root causes. .

SHARESIES · MARKET MOVEMENTS · 3 AUGUST 2026Jacki Neumann, Head of Capital Markets at Sharesies Note: Filmed Monday 3 August ↑ WHAT’S UP — Equity markets snapped back, with the S&P 500 up around 1%, the Nasdaq up 1.6%, and the ASX 200 gaining 2.3% to break a falling streak. Rio Tinto shared strong results, while Microsoft and Amazon rose on Azure and AWS cloud growth. ↓ WHAT’S DOWN — The 30-year US Treasury yield jumped to its highest level since 2007 as investors demanded more compensation to hold amid lingering inflation doubts. Meta's earnings fell short on legal and AI infrastructure costs and Apple's record quarter was overshadowed by weak guidance. The NZX 50 bucked the trend, slipping 0.5%. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — The Fed held rates steady despite three votes to hike, and again offered no forward guidance, leaving markets pricing a 65% chance of a September move. In Australia, June quarter CPI came in lower than expected at 3.8%, cutting the odds of an RBA hike by year-end to roughly 60%. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — More earnings this week, with SpaceX reporting for the first time as a public company, and AMP, ResMed and REA Group due locally. Friday brings July’s US jobs report, a key read on the labour market as the Fed weighs its next move. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE — As long-dated yields hit a 9-year high, the bond market clearly doesn’t believe inflation is beaten. Investors are still responding cautiously to earnings, rewarding Microsoft and Amazon for proving that their AI spending drives revenue, while unenthused about results that don’t show a clear payoff.

SHARESIES · MARKET MOVEMENTS · 28 JULY 2026Jacki Neumann, Head of Capital Markets at Sharesies Note: Filmed Tuesday 28 July ↑ WHAT’S UP — Renewed Middle East conflict drove Brent crude oil up nearly 14% for the week and back above US$100 a barrel, lifting ASX energy names like Santos and Woodside. The NZX 50 gained around 0.6% even while overseas markets fell. ↓ WHAT’S DOWN — Alphabet fell 7% despite solid results and Tesla around 14%, dragging the Nasdaq down 2.1% and the S&P 500 down 0.6%. The weakness rippled into the ASX tech sector, down 6.6%, and the ASX 200 falling 0.3% for a third straight week. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — Australian jobs jumped by 76,000 in June, well above expectations, and unemployment was steady at 4.4%, keeping an August RBA rate rise on the table. A spike in US Treasury yields lifted the odds of a Fed hike this week from around one-in-ten to nearly one-in-three. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — The Fed hands down its rate decision on Wednesday US time, with a hold expected. Microsoft and Meta report the same day, with Amazon and Apple following on Thursday. In Australia, Wednesday's Q2 CPI print is a key input into the RBA's next rate decision. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE — The theme of earnings season is that strong revenue is no longer enough and investors want proof that AI capex is translating into returns. Until that spending clearly converts to profit, it seems the market will stay sceptical, even if the underlying numbers beat expectations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, we examine housing, the labor market, rising interest rate expectations, and our broader investment thesis. The Census Bureau's latest report on new home sales modestly exceeded expectations, but sales remain historically subdued as the housing market continues to slow across much of the country. Initial unemployment claims unexpectedly declined, yet the headline figure masks several important developments, including weaker hiring, the retirement of baby boomers, and slower immigration, all of which have reduced labor force growth and complicated the interpretation of employment data. Meanwhile, the yield on the 10 year Treasury note climbed to 4.7 percent, its highest level of the year, as investors responded to concerns over an escalating conflict and the prospect of higher oil prices. The Federal Reserve remains in an increasingly difficult position, confronting a series of supply shocks that monetary policy is poorly equipped to address. Our view remains unchanged. Even if policy rates do not rise further, expectations that interest rates will remain elevated are likely to place additional pressure on households, weighing on consumer spending and broader economic activity.

SHARESIES · MARKET MOVEMENTS · 22 JULY 2026Jacki Neumann, Head of Capital Markets at Sharesies Note: Filmed Tuesday 21 July ↑ WHAT’S UP — As US–Iran tensions re-escalated, Brent crude oil spiked more than 13% for the week. US banks posted strong results on record ECM and trading revenue off the back of the SpaceX IPO and AI infrastructure fundraising. ↓ WHAT’S DOWN — A tech-led sell-off pulled the S&P 500 down 1.5% and the Nasdaq 2.9%. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index tumbled almost 10%, closing more than 20% below its June peak. Materials and tech led an ASX pullback. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — June US inflation came in cooler than expected, even as several Fed officials stayed hawkish. China's Q2 GDP grew just 4.3% — its weakest since late 2022 — with a knock-on risk for Australian iron ore names like BHP, Rio Tinto and Fortescue. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — Earnings season steps up this week, with Alphabet and Tesla both reporting. On Thursday the ECB delivers its rate decision, with a hold expected, and Australia's June jobs data lands, with unemployment tipped to stay near 4.4%. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE — Debate over the cause of the semiconductor sell-off: capex sustainability, open-source competition, an AI earnings bubble? The next few weeks of tech earnings reporting should show whether this was a healthy reset or the start of something bigger.

SHARESIES · MARKET MOVEMENTS · 15 JULY 2026Laura Marwick & Jordan Cunningham, Sharesies Head of Data & Analytics Note: Filmed Tuesday 14 July ↑ WHAT’S UP — Meta surged 14.8% on plans to add 14 gigawatts of compute, driving the Nasdaq up 1.74% for its fourth gain in five weeks. SK Hynix's US debut raised US$26.5 billion, the largest-ever US listing by a foreign company. ↓ WHAT’S DOWN — The ASX 200 fell 0.4% to 8,806 as miners tumbled over 4%, while the Dow was down 0.5% and Russell 2000 0.6%. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — The RBNZ lifted the OCR 25bps to 2.5% — its first hike in three years — and signalled that more tightening is likely. Renewed US-Iran strikes pushed WTI crude up 4.3% and the 10-year Treasury yield to 4.57%. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — US CPI lands Tuesday (est. 3.9% y/y), alongside new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's first congressional testimony and big US bank earnings. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE — Analysts have unusually lifted S&P 500 earnings estimates into Q2 reporting season, stirring "earnings bubble" talk, while the US-Iran ceasefire looks fragile after fresh strikes. NZ's rate hike and improving PMI point to a Q3 recovery.
