In a sobering comments, legendary hedge fund manager Ray Dalio recently warned that the U.S. has crossed a fiscal Rubicon. NLW breaks down Dalio's thesis of irreversible debt doom, currency devaluation, and the looming end of American monetary dominance. With interest payments surpassing the defense budget and the government falling short on reform, Dalio argues that fiat systems are expiring—and that investors should seek refuge in hard assets like gold and Bitcoin. Plus, updates on Interactive Brokers' stablecoin plans, PayPal's expanded crypto support, and the ECB's warnings of monetary irrelevance. Enjoying this content?

Steeds meer institutionele partijen stappen in crypto. Dat blijkt uit een nieuw rapport van het Amerikaanse advocatenkantoor Barnes & Thornburg. In dat rapport zijn honderden professionele beleggers en fondsbeheerders ondervraagd, die actief zijn in de Verenigde Staten. Het gaat daarbij nadrukkelijk niet om een zelf-feliciterend onderzoekje uit de cryptowereld zelf, maar om een juridisch kantoor dat opereert binnen het traditionele financiële systeem. De respondenten geven aan dat ze cryptovaluta inmiddels serieus overwegen als onderdeel van hun portfolio. Veel van hen investeren niet voor het eerst, en ook niet op goed geluk. Dat suggereert dat het om strategische langetermijnkeuzes gaat, waarbij onder meer risicoafdekking en rendement een rol spelen. Ook biedt de institutionele interesse mogelijk houvast voor verdere groei van de sector. Daarbij wordt vaak naar de Verenigde Staten gekeken, maar ook in Europa en Nederland zien partijen de eerste bewegingen. De verschillen zijn echter groot: in Europa lijken de eerste instanties net wakker te worden. Toch is het beeld duidelijk dat de cryptosector wereldwijd serieuzer wordt genomen door professionele investeerders. Ondertussen kende Bitcoin zelf een onrustige week. De koers daalde richting de 115.000 dollar, nadat een groot volume Bitcoin op de markt zou zijn gebracht door Galaxy Digital, een bekende partij binnen de industrie. Volgens berichten ging het om 80.000 munten, een hoeveelheid die normaal gesproken veel grotere impact zou hebben. Dat de koers vervolgens weer snel richting de 120.000 dollar herstelde, wijst mogelijk op robuuste vraag in de markt. Daarnaast zijn ook altcoins in opmars, met Ethereum als koploper. Analisten zien dat de zogenoemde bitcoindominantie afneemt: het aandeel van Bitcoin ten opzichte van de rest van de cryptomarkt wordt kleiner. Dat kan duiden op een nieuwe fase in de cyclus, waarbij beleggers meer risico durven nemen. Verder stelt ECB-adviseur Jürgen Schaaf dat de digitale euro het moeilijk gaat krijgen tegenover stabiele cryptodollars. In een nieuw blog noemt hij dollar-stablecoins zelfs een mogelijk risico voor het Europese financiële systeem. Tegelijk stelt hij dat Europa meer moet doen om euro-stablecoins te steunen. Schaaf laat daarmee een ander geluid horen dan in 2022, toen hij Bitcoin nog afschreef als voorbijgaand fenomeen. Co-hosts zijn Bert en Peter Slagter, beiden analist bij kennisplatform Bitcoin Alpha.

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 the IMF says global growth is projected at 3.0% for 2025 and 3.1% in 2026, an upward revision from the April 2025 World Economic Outlook. This reflects front-loading ahead of tariffs, lower effective tariff rates, better financial conditions, and fiscal expansion in some major jurisdictions.But first, the overnight GDT Pulse dairy prices came in without the signaled drop in WMP prices by the derivatives market. In fact it rose +1% from the prior event. The SMP price however fell -1%. So in fact little net movement.And the Stockholm US-China tariff negotiations are to be extended, essentially ignoring the US imposed August 1 deadline. And the US-EU 'deal' wasn't 'done' as the Whitehouse claimed. More 'horse-trading' is being scheduled.The growth steam is slowly leaking from the Redbook retail index, up +4.9% last week from this time last year. Most of this will be goods inflation.US exports rose +3.4% in June from a year ago whereas US imports were up +0.3% on the same basis. That reduced their merchandise trade deficit to -US$87 bln and back to about where it was at the start of 2024. Without the +11% rise in aircraft exports there would have been little improvement.The number of job openings in the US fell by -275,000 from May to 7.4 mln in June, below market expectations of 7.55 mln. Their quit rate fell to a six month low. Expectations for the July non-farm payrolls are pretty modest at +110,000, taking them back to early 2025 levels.The latest Conference Board survey of consumer sentiment, for July, was little changed. But almost 19% of those surveyed indicated that jobs were hard to get in July, up from 14.5% in January. This group thought inflation was running at 5.8% currently, and is likely to go higher.There was a very well supported US Treasury bond auction overnight, for their seven year Note. But investors still wanted higher yields with the median coming in at 4.06%, up from 3.96% at the prior equivalent event a month ago.But expect rising pressure from the demand side. The US Treasury said during the July - September 2025 quarter, they expect to borrow US$1.007 tln in privately-held net marketable debt, assuming an end-of-September cash balance of US$850 bln - which may be optimistic. This new borrowing estimate is +US$453 bln higher than they announced in April so it is rising faster than even they expected, primarily due to the lower beginning-of-quarter cash balance and projected lower net cash flows.In Europe, the latest ECB survey of inflation expectations has them well contained, coming in at 2.6% for the year ahead, the lowest in four months. Policymakers there are not battling high inflation expectations.Later today, Australia will release its Q2 CPI inflation rate, expected to be 2.2% and down from the 2.4% in Q1-2025.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.33%, down -9 bps from yesterday.The price of gold will start today at US$3,327/oz, up +US$18 from yesterday.American oil prices have risen +US$2.50 at just under US$69/bbl with the international Brent price is now at just over US$72/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at 59.6 USc and down -10 bps from yesterday. Against the Aussie we are down -20 bps at 91.4 AUc. Against the euro we are up +10 bps at 51.6 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on 67.5, down another -10 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$117,725 and essentially unchanged (+US$61) from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has remained low at just on +/-0.8%.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.

Following a number of trade deals announced in the last week, financial markets seem to be taking the news in a positive manner with equity markets continuing to edge higher and bond yields remaining in fairly narrow ranges. However, one bond market that has stood out is Germany where yields have jumped following hawkish ECB commentary after their July rate meeting, which we discuss in this episode alongside the potential EU-US trade deal. We also discuss the US implications of trade deals, preview the FOMC decision and US labour market data, both of which are due next week. In Asia, we focus on trade developments in India and ASEAN, the Japan upper house election, and the US-Japan trade deal. Chapters: US: 01:54, EMEA: 10:29, Asia: 15:05, Japan: 22:13.

Het woord herstel kennen ze niet bij Volkswagen en LVMH. Bij de autobouwer zijn de marges laag en keldert de winst. Met maar liefst 38,5 procent. Als klap op de vuurpijl verlaagt Volkswagen de verwachtingen voor de rest van het jaar. Bij LVMH gaat de omzet voor het vierde kwartaal op rij naar beneden.En de Franse luxeketen ziet het voorlopig nog niet goed komen. De Duitsers dus ook niet. Toch zijn beleggers enthousiast, want de beurskoers van beide bedrijven ging flink omhoog. Wat zien beleggers dat wij niet zien? Je hoort het deze aflevering.Hebben we het ook over een pijnlijk bezoek. President Trump kreeg een bouwhelm op en mocht langskomen op de bouwplaats van de Federal Reserve. De centrale bank bouwt daar aan nieuw hoofdkantoor. Hij stond de pers te woord met naast hem Fed-baas Jerome Powell. Dezelfde man die hij elke dag uitmaakt voor rotte vis.Gaat het ook over de goedkeuring die de Amerikaanse toezichthouder heeft gegeven voor de fusie tussen Skydance en Paramount. Waardoor we het dus even moeten hebben over de films van Tom Cruise, want die krijgen nu een ander onderkomen.Ook bespreken we problemen bij Intel. Daar gaat het nog steeds niet goed. Na al die ingrepen. Bij Tesla gaat het ook niet goed (dat hoorde je gisteren al), maar er komt nu nog iets bovenop. Musk blijkt niet al te best gehandeld te hebben met Bitcoin.

Nossos sócios Luiz Eduardo Portella, Tomás Goulart e Sarah Campos debatem, no episódio de hoje, os principais acontecimentos da semana no Brasil e no mundo. No cenário internacional, os EUA anunciaram um acordo comercial com o Japão, fixando a tarifa de importação do país em 15% - nível acima do atual, mas abaixo dos 25% sugeridos pelo Trump. O PMI dos EUA atingiu o melhor ritmo de crescimento do ano, sustentado inteiramente por serviços, enquanto a indústria enfrenta retração. Na Europa, o ECB manteve o juro inalterado, como esperado. O Comitê sinaliza que a barra para novos cortes é elevada. No Brasil, o IPCA-15 veio ligeiramente acima do esperado, puxado por uma alta nos preços de passagens aéreas. No entanto, o ambiente inflacionário segue mais positivo, com os núcleos da inflação apresentando comportamento próximo ao padrão sazonal. No âmbito comercial, ainda não há novidades concretas das negociações comerciais com os EUA, mas o vice-presidente Geraldo Alckmin esteve em contato com o Secretário do Comércio americano e relatou a disposição brasileira em negociar. Nos EUA, as bolsas tiveram bom desempenho – S&P 500 +1,5% e Nasdaq +1,0% e os juros longos fecharam (30y -6bps). O EUR valorizou 1,0%. No Brasil, os juros também fecharam (jan/27 -15 bps) e o Ibovespa ficou estável. O petróleo caiu ao redor de 2%. Na próxima semana, destaque para as decisões do FOMC e do Copom. Serão divulgados também os dados de emprego e atividade nos EUA, além de inflação e PIB na Europa. Não deixe de conferir!

We moeten het echt hebben over Elon Musk. Hoe lang moet Tesla nog onder hem lijden? Voor een tweede keer op rij daalt de omzet - en flink ook. Wanneer het beter wordt, dat weet hij ook niet. Terwijl hij zelf voor heel wat problemen persoonlijk verantwoordelijk is.Beleggers schrikken van de cijfers (en de sombere vooruitzichten) en dumpen het aandeel. Tesla is het slechtst presenterende techbedrijf dit jaar op de beurs. Deze aflevering staan we uitgebreid stil bij de problemen van het bedrijf. Met de belangrijkste vraag: hoe lang mag Musk nog blijven aanmodderen? Blij werden beleggers wél van de cijfers van Alphabet, eigenaar van Google. Dat overtreft de omzet- en winstverwachting. Als klap op de vuurpijl gaat het bedrijf even 10 miljard dollar méér investeren. Christine Lagarde gaat juist even rustig aan doen. De baas van de Europese Centrale Bank verlaagde zeven keer op rij de rente, maar laat die nu voor wat het is. Ze maakt zich zorgen, zegt ze. Over de ‘uitzonderlijk onzekere’ situatie. Welke dat is, vertellen we je.Hebben we het ook over: Een beursbedrijf dat civiel én strafrechtelijk onderzocht wordt De meest geavanceerde Nvidia-chips komen tóch China in Besi maakt beleggers blij met hun blije outlook En het stopt niet met goed nieuws: SK Hynix boekt een recordwinst!

The current earnings season is proving particularly intriguing, with some companies surpassing analyst expectations and others struggling, particularly due to the impact of US tariffs. On the subject of tariffs, the recently announced US-Japan trade deal has boosted market confidence and fuelled optimism that others, such as the European Union, may also be able to secure similar deals. Meanwhile, attention is slowly but surely shifting towards interest rate decisions, with the ECB set to announce its decision tomorrow and the US Federal Reserve scheduled to follow next week. Joining us on the show today is Manuel Villegas from Next Generation Research, who provides an update and outlook on the crypto space.(00:00) - Introduction: Jan Bopp, Investment Writing (00:35) - Markets wrap-up: Lucija Caculovic, Investment Writing (07:10) - Digital assets: Manuel Villegas, Next Generation Research (10:37) - Closing remarks: Jan Bopp, Investment Writing Would you like to support this show?

Met het oog op de komende verkiezingen spreekt Yael Potjer met econoom Han de Jong over de staat van de Nederlandse en Europese economie. Hoe gezond is ons verdienvermogen, wat bereiken de Russische sancties, en hoe verhouden stijgende defensie-uitgaven zich tot de houdbaarheid van de verzorgingsstaat? Komt er een Europees stelsel van gezamenlijke schulden?Terwijl de EU inzet op strategische autonomie, sluiten steeds meer chemiebedrijven in Nederland hun deuren en gaan cruciale banen verloren. Wat gaat hier mis? Wat zijn de economische gevolgen van deze ontwikkeling en welke keuzes moeten we maken om onze industriële basis te behouden?Ook bespreken ze de Russische sancties. Bereiken die hun doel, of schieten we onszelf ermee in de voet? Han de Jong deed er onderzoek naar en waarschuwt dat de Russische economie op lange termijn juist sterker uit de strijd kan komen.Is het echt nodig om 5 procent van onze economie aan defensie te besteden? Wat betekent dat voor andere uitgaven, zoals de verzorgingsstaat, en is de AOW op termijn nog wel houdbaar? Daarnaast spreken ze over de roep om gemeenschappelijke Europese schulden, waar vooral landen als Frankrijk op aansturen. Een risicovolle ontwikkeling voor Nederland. Ook komt de aanhoudende stagnatie van de Duitse economie en auto-industrie aan bod.Tot slot deelt Han de Jong zijn visie op het beleid van centrale banken, de EU, inflatieverwachtingen en het degrowth-denken.

De voorbije jaren moesten we ons vooral zorgen maken over te hoge inflatie, maar nu dreigt het omgekeerde: te lage inflatie. De Europese Centrale Bank verwacht dat de inflatie het komende anderhalf jaar lager zal zijn dan het streefdoel van 2 procent. Maar is dat echt een probleem, dat het leven de komende tijd niet veel duurder wordt? Wat kan de ECB daaraan doen? En hoe speel je daar zélf best op in, als spaarder en belegger? In deze extra aflevering van De 7 gaat host Lara Droessaert in gesprek met beleggenjournalist bij De Tijd Wouter Vervenne en analist bij De Belegger Simon Renty over de risico’s van lage inflatie en de do's & don'ts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
