Het was de kortste presentatie sinds de aankondiging van de iPhone. De eerste iPhone wel te verstaan. In ongeveer anderhalf uur vloog topman Tim Cook (op de jaarlijkse World Wide Developer Conference) met z'n collega's door de nieuwste bedenksels van Apple heen. En daaruit bleek dat Apple het nog steeds NIET voor elkaar krijgt om hun eigen AI te maken. Het hoogtepunt was een nieuw uiterlijk voor alle Apple-systemen. Maar ook dat ging niet helemaal goed. Want bij de video die Apple erover op YouTube publiceerde stond het YouTube logo over de G en de L van Liquid Glass heen. Waardoor er Liquid Ass stond.Apple werd ineens een grap. Daar hebben we het deze aflevering over. Hoe kon het zo ver komen en hoe komt Apple hieruit? En kan het nog een rol van betekenis spelen op het gebied van AI?Misschien moeten we even bellen met Mark Zuckerberg. Zijn Meta loopt ook hopeloos achter, maar hij heeft de oplossing gevonden! Hij speelt recruiter en is persoonlijk in gesprek met nerds.Verder hebben we het ook over de onderhandelingen tussen de Amerikanen en Chinezen, in Londen. De vorige gesprekken (in Geneve) bevielen de kemphanen zo goed, dat ze ze voortzetten in een ander land. We kijken of het einde van de handelsoorlog nu eindelijk nabij is. De termijn van Klaas Knot komt ook steeds dichterbij. Nog maar drie weken en dan is 'ie baas van De Nederlandsche Bank af. Maar er is nog steeds géén opvolger. En dat heeft gevolgen voor het rentebeleid van de ECB.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's episode of Retire in Texas, Darryl Lyons, CEO and Co-Founder of PAX Financial Group, breaks down the recent U.S. credit downgrade by Moody's - and what it really means for the economy, the markets, and your personal finances. While headlines may spark panic, Darryl walks listeners through the facts with clarity and perspective. From the ripple effect on mortgage rates to the role of active bond managers, Darryl explains why this downgrade, though historic, isn't cause for alarm - and why the U.S. remains, in his words, “the cleanest shirt in a dirty load of laundry.” Key highlights of the episode include: What the Moody's downgrade means - and why it happened now. How it impacts stock and bond markets differently (and why the stock market already saw it coming). The connection between U.S. Treasury yields and rising mortgage rates. Why active bond management matters more in volatile conditions. The long-term perspective: why the U.S. is still the safest place for capital despite the headlines. Whether you're an investor, homeowner, or business owner, this episode offers a calm, candid take on a complex topic - helping you understand what really matters behind the noise.

In this high-octane episode of The Higher Standard, Chris and Saied officially welcome Rajeil to the show—and initiate him with a healthy dose of sarcasm and button-pushing. They hop right in to Moody's U.S. credit downgrade. What does it mean when Uncle Sam takes a hit to his credit score? It's not just a bad look—it signals rising debt, inflation, and interest payments spiraling out of control. With 30-year mortgage rates back above 7%, the crew dives into why your rate acts more like a moody teenager than a constant, and how the 10-year Treasury is the true puppet master behind housing affordability.➡️ But wait—there's more. Chris explains why your home isn't an investment, it's a utility (no, you can't charge rent to your shower), and why “marry the house, date the rate” is advice best left in 2019. The guys talk taxes and why today's housing market may be the most unaffordable in U.S. history—yes, even worse than 2006. Whether you're scraping by on Top Ramen or flexing your broker's license, this episode delivers a reality check wrapped in a warm tortilla of wit and wisdom.

Kathy breaks down how the fiscal outlook, rising interest costs, and a controversial new spending bill, The Big Beautiful Bill, could reshape real estate investing.
