On today's show we are looking at a divergence between lumber futures prices and current lumber composite prices. These two graphs always tend to track each other, sometimes with a small delay. But the prices always follow the futures. However, this is a moment in time when the lumber futures are diverging. The week-to-week framing lumber composite price fell by 0.5% on June 27, 2025, declining to $422 per 1,000 board feet. This was the 12th consecutive week of declines, and the lowest price since October 2024. The falling prices reflect falling demand for lumber as construction starts continue their steady decline. Production also fell in response to the fall in demand. But the July Futures price is $615, September is $664 and November is $675. That's a 60% premium over the current spot price. Holding physical lumber (spot price) incurs costs. This includes warehousing, insurance, and the cost of capital tied up in inventory. Futures prices reflect these "carrying costs" that would be avoided by buying a contract for future delivery rather than purchasing the physical commodity today and storing it. Storing that lumber incurs interest costs if the inventory is financed. So part of the difference in price is explained by the cost of carrying physical inventory. There is anticipation of future increase in demand for new construction later this year and into next year. So the market is forecasting growth, even though the market is clearly experiencing a decline over the past 6 months. Finally, the trade war is anticipating supply side constraints as we have already seen a 6% decline in lumber from Canada entering the US. This is further anticipated to amplify as the trade dispute continues. This will make forecasting of construction costs more difficult for the foreseeable future in the US which will put downward pressure on new construction until the uncertainty is removed. ------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)
AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports on what Senators are hearing from the Trump administration about Iran.
Kia ora,Welcome to Wednesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news a relief rally is underway on Wall Street, responding to the delays in tariffs by the US on EU goods.But first, an update of the overnight dairy Pulse auction where prices for both SMP and WMP slipped although less than the futures market had suggested. The WMP was down -2.7% in USD from the prior week's full event, and a bit more in NZD. To be fair both prices had risen sharply since April but this pullback still leaves it in a rising trend despite today's adjustment.Data releases resumed in the US after their weekend holiday with durable goods orders pulling back in April after the unusually strong March gains. The pullback was largely in line with what was expected however, -6.3% lower than the prior month but up +2.7% from a year ago. Perhaps worryingly, excluding aircraft orders, nomn-defence capital goods barely budged in April, a sign that boardrooms remain skittish about future investment.That was matched by the Dallas Fed's May factory survey where activity was reported flat with a decline in new orders.But consumers seem happier, according to the Conference Board's May survey of consumer sentiment. But it was a survey taken before the latest US threats on the EU, so there is a sense of 'relief rally' here after the China tariff pullback. However, despite the month-on-month gain, this indicator is still tracking lower on the longer term, still lower than year-ago levels.Sentiment will be challenged again soon. There were a couple of housing indicators out overnight, and both recorded falls in American house prices. The FHA one was spun as an improvement, but it wasn't. The S&P/Case-Shiller one was a gain but a tiny one and the least since mid-2023.The bond market isn't feeling any better. The latest US Treasury 2 year auction, although as well supported as usual, brought a median yield of 3.90%, up from 3.74% at the prior equivalent event a month ago.And we can note that pricing for Trump Media shares, a marketplace that basically attracts investors who are supporters, is doing terribly. TMTG is down -11% today, down -33% so far this year, down more than -50% from a year ago. To rescue itself, it says it wants to raise US$2.5 bln to shift into crypto investing. It is an idea not going down well with shareholders.Across the border, core Canadian business activity is struggling a bit too. April wholesale trade was down -0.9% from March. That is kind of a lot for a one-month impact, one that records the initial tariff-war skirmishes.Across the Pacific in China, profits at industrial firms rose +1.4% in the first four months of 2025 compared to the same four months in 2024, picking up from +0.8% growth in the January–March period. For April alone, that was a rise of +5.2% from April 2024. Having noted that, April 2024 was a weak base. Still, given the trade challenges, and that China's factories are still very export oriented and vulnerable to trade war risks, this has to be seen as a good result in the circumstances.And we should start to keep an eye on China's carmakers. It is attracting increasing scrutiny because the economic fundamentals seem to be leaking away and quite fast. It could be another 'property development' industry failure, and could have just as large consequences if it wobbles too. They have no problem making cars, and good ones. But not only are they making more than the world needs, there are serious questions as to whether they can sell them for more than they cost to make.We should probably note that South Korean consumer sentiment jumped in May, rising back to levels that were common in November 2024 and prior. The ugly confusion period when its president went full-Trump and tried a palace coup (which resulted in impeachment, one that was upheld by the courts) is now behind it and Koreans are breathing easier. The rule of law won against a power grab. South Koreans will vote in a snap presidential election on Tuesday, June 3.And still in South Korea, they should join the CPTPP and diversify its trade as part of the bloc in the face of US uncertainties, a senior trade ex-minister is saying. (New Zealand runs a huge trade deficit with Korea.)In the EU, consumer and business sentiment basically held steady in May, according to the latest update. The trade wars are not yet unnerving the Europeans.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.44%, and down -6 bps from yesterday.The price of gold will start today at US$3,302/oz, and down -US$38 from yesterday.Oil prices are down -US$1 at just over US$60.50/bbl in the US and the international Brent price is still just under US$64/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is down at 59.5 USc, a -½c retreat from yesterday at this time as commodity currencies are out of favour today. Against the Aussie we are down -20 bps at just on 92.3 AUc. Against the euro we are holding at 52.5 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today still just over 67.6 and down -30 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$110,309 and up another +1.2% from yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just on +/-1.2%.Check back with us at 2pm for the RBNZ's May Monetary Policy Statement and OCR review. As you will knwo by now, 'everyone' expects a -25 bps cut. But the outlook from there is reasonably clouded, so Governor Hawkesby's analysis at 3pm is keenly awaited. We will have full coverage.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

With the goal of revisiting the churches established on their first missionary journey, Paul and Barnabas find themselves in a dispute that results in them separating. Each found new partners and set out on the mission in different directions.
In this episode, I sit down with João Esteves, founder of DiVERGE Sneakers, a brand that's rewriting the rules of footwear from the ground up. We discuss why customization matters, how DiVERGE puts the customer's individuality front and center, and what it truly takes to build a business rooted in purpose, not just profit. João opens up about his entrepreneurial journey, including the emotional resilience required to stay the course and the people who believed in him when the business needed it most. From launching a brand inspired by a Robert Frost poem to becoming a B Corp committed to people and the planet, João shares how DiVERGE is challenging mass production and the wasteful norms of the fashion industry. We also dive into the brand's incredible social impact program that helps underprivileged youth design their own shoes and share their stories with the world.

At the Paris AI Action Summit on February 10-11, remarks by EU and US leaders indicated significant divergence on how to think about AI. But on balance, nations are moving decisively toward innovation and exploitation of this technology and away from containing it or restricting it. In this episode, Justin Hendrix surfaces voices from the Summit, as well as reactions and discussion on these matters at this year's State of the Net conference on February 11 in Washington, DC, including comments by Center for Democracy & Technology vice president for policy Samir Jain, Abundance Institute head of AI policy Neil Chilson, and former Biden administration assistant director for AI policy Olivia Zhu.

Could plan fiduciaries violate their duty of loyalty to plan participants despite a prudent process? A recent federal judge says yes. Nevin (Adams) & Fred (Reish) discuss. Participant-plaintiff (and pilot) Bryan P. Spence filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas in June 2023 against Defendants American Airlines, Inc., American Airlines Employee Benefits Committee, Fidelity Investments Institutional, and Financial Engines Advisors, LLC (he subsequently dropped the latter two). The suit alleged that they “breached their fiduciary duties in violation of ERISA by investing millions of dollars of American Airlines employees' retirement savings[i] with investment managers and investment funds that pursue leftist political agendas through environmental, social and governance (‘ESG') strategies, proxy voting, and shareholder activism—activities which fail to satisfy these fiduciaries' statutory duties to maximize financial benefits in the sole interest of the Plan participants.” And now—following a four-day bench trial during which there was “testimony from multiple witnesses and examined numerous exhibits,” a review of the record in its entirety and where the Court “has observed the witnesses to assess their credibility and weigh their testimony”—that same Judge O'Connor has now determined what appears to be an unusual divergence. So, what's going on with this case, and what does/should it mean for retirement plan fiduciaries? Nevin (Adams) and Fred (Reish) discuss.

Kia ora,Welcome to Friday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news China and Japan seem to be in the process of swapping places.But first, following a much better than expected rise in October, and driven by fast-rising credit card debt, the November American consumer debt levels corrected in November, falling -US$7.5 bln. Again, it was a sharpish pullback in credit card debt that drove the surprise November result. On the other hand, nonrevolving credit, which includes car loans and mortgages, saw a still-modest +2% rise, after small increases of +0.7% in October and +0.4% in September.There were announced job cuts involving 39,000 American workers in December, much lower than November and only marginally different to December a year ago. For the full year employers announced 761,500 job cuts, the most since 2020, and prior to that pandemic year, the most since 2009. In 2024, 134,000 of those cuts were in the tech sector. But in terms of the 160 mln US labour market, these announced annual cut levels are a truly tiny 0.4%.Across the Pacific in China, we noted yesterday that authorities there seem to have instituted a hard peg for the official yuan exchange rate to the USD. Now they have to defend that in open markets. Overnight they announced a massive ¥60 bln bill issue in Hong Kong in an effort to build demand for their under-pressure currency.The battle against deflation is far from over too. China's annual consumer inflation rate edged down to +0.1% in December from +0.2% in November, aligning with estimates and marking the lowest rise since March. It is now at a nine-month low. The latest result came amid a slight decline in food prices and a modest rise in non-food costs. But beef prices were down -13.8% for the year, lamb prices down -6.1%, and milk prices were down -1.6%.Meanwhile, producer prices fell by -2.3% in December from a year ago, but that was their softest fall in four months. It was the expected fall.And perhaps we should also note that, although there was little movement in the past 24 hours, the 30 year Chinese bond yield at 1.89% is now lower than the equivalent Japanese government bond at 2.30%. While it is not the case for other tenors, the shifting directions are the same - China down and Japan up. China is turning Japanese, and Japan is shifting out of its hard deflationary cycle.In Japan, wages rose +3% in November from the same month a year ago, rising from the +2.6% increase seen in October and higher than market forecasts of a +2.7% gain. However, real wages adjusted for inflation and a key indicator of consumers' purchasing power fell by -0.3% year-on-year in November.In India, they have downgraded their fast economic growth estimates. After growing +8.2% in the year to June 2024, they now say that will 'slow' to +6.4% in the year to June 2025. Apart from the pandemic period, that will be their slowest expansion in more than a decade. While these expansion rates are still high by any standard, the worrying component for them is the fast slowdown in private investmentFrom the EU there was some positive economic news. Retail sales volumes - that is, after considering inflation's impact - were up +1.5% in November and to their best level since September 2022.In the UK, there are bond yield shifts too, some of them sharp. Their 30 yr Government bond is up to 5.46%, their 10 year up to 4.88%. That is more than +100 bps higher than a year ago. In just the past month their 10 yr is up from 4.37%. These 10 year benchmark levels are higher than either New Zealand or Australian equivalents now, and the shift up has caught financial market attention.Australian retail sales rose +4.1% in November from the same month a year ago, a positive 'real' gain. They were up stronger than that national average in Victoria, Queensland, and Western Australia. But the were only up +2.9% in NSW.Australian exports rose to AU$43.8 bln in November from October in a recent rising trend and boosted by strong rural exports. But at that level they are still -5.0% lower than in November 2023. Imports were also lower in November from a year ago. And their merchandise trade surplus was -AU$4.5 bln lower than in November 2023.The rush to get product from China to the US is in full swing now and commanding a premium on containerised freight rates. Those routes saw a +13% jump last week, which pushed the overall market up +2% for the week. Freight rates for other key routes are not on the move however. This special situation is expected to reverse within the next two weeks, and the global trade system's immediate outlook is quite uncertain. Bulk cargo rates fell -8% last week, and are now back to levels that prevailed in the mid-1980s.And an update on the US East Coast and Gulf waterfront labour dispute. The automation issue is settled and another strike is averted. On balance, employers lost. Markets have repriced equities lower for listed port operators. So US waterfront costs will stay higher than in most other port jurisdictions.The UST 10yr yield is now at just on 4.69%, and up +1 bp from yesterday.The price of gold will start today at US$2669/oz and up +US$18 from this time yesterday.Oil prices are back up +50 USc from this time yesterday at just on US$74/bbl in the US while the international Brent price is now just under US$77.The Kiwi dollar starts today just under 56 USc and down -10 bps from this time yesterday. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 90.3 AUc. Against the euro we are down -10 bps at 54.3 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just under 66.9 but really little-changed from this time yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$94,218 and down -0.5% from this time on yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at +/- 1.9%.You can find links to the articles mentioned today in our show notes.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora.

Investors are likely to focus on consequences for oil prices and safe-haven flows, which seem muted for now. The success of the far-right in Austria's weekend elections may be a larger investor concern. The global trend toward prejudice politics risks disrupting global trade and capital flow in the near term, and undermining the benefits of technological change in the longer term.

This week Dr. Donut & The Dingus discuss their own "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood" decision that changed the whole course of their lives. You're Welcome.THE ROAD NOT TAKEN by Robert FrostTwo roads diverged in a yellow wood,And sorry I could not travel bothAnd be one traveler, long I stoodAnd looked down one as far as I couldTo where it bent in the undergrowth;Then took the other, as just as fair,And having perhaps the better claim,Because it was grassy and wanted wear;Though as for that the passing thereHad worn them really about the same,And both that morning equally layIn leaves no step had trodden black.Oh, I kept the first for another day!Yet knowing how way leads on to way,I doubted if I should ever come back.I shall be telling this with a sighSomewhere ages and ages hence:Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference.
The Egyptian regime would hardly shed any tears if Hamas – which they view like the outlawed Muslim brotherhood – was destroyed. Yet Cairo is threatening to abrogate the historic peace treaty with Israel if the IDF goes through with its planned invasion of Rafah and takeover of the Philadelphia corridor along the frontier. Ruth Wasserman Lande, a former member of Knesset and deputy ambassador to Egypt and today a research fellow at the Misgav Institute for National Security, said that Israel needs to beef up its strategic dialogue with Egypt. She outlined to reporter Arieh O'Sullivan some of Israel's leverages it can exercise with Egypt. (photo: Tsafrir Abayov/AP)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
