It's been quite a ride for equity markets this year. Uncertainty and volatility hit a fever pitch in the weeks following President Trump's sweeping tariff announcement in April as investors feared the potential for rising inflation, slow economic growth, and US assets, losing their aura of dominance. Tony DeSpirito, global CIO for BlackRock's Fundamental Equities Group, joins host Oscar Pulido to help make sense of recent market turmoil from an equity perspective where he sees opportunities amidst the volatility and what history tells us to expect as we look ahead to the rest of the year.Sources: Equity Market Outlook Q2 2025, BlackRock; BlackRock Fundamental Equities, with data from Morningstar & Bloomberg as of April 30, 2025;Check out the full series covering tariffs and market volatility on The Bid: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3iiZbbNz3eI08zXGZ4n3LI?si=TNiOrYRoSxyXVsbwsBs68QKey moments in this episode:00:00 Stock Market Turmoil and Recovery01:22 Tony DeSpirito Gives His Q2 Outlook04:15 Historical Equity Markets Volatility06:53 Where Equity Opportunities in Volatile Markets Lie12:55 Global Market Comparisons17:34 Final Thoughts and Investor Considerations

La semana pasada Donald Trump realizó la primera gira internacional de su segundo mandato. Visitó Arabia Saudí, Qatar y los Emiratos Árabes Unidos. Este viaje, centrado en acuerdos comerciales y asuntos geopolíticos de primer nivel como la cuestión de Siria, supone un punto de inflexión en tanto que Trump se mostró dispuesto a dialogar. Algo llamativo ya que, al menos en este ámbito, su postura es realista y libre de los maximalismos de su primer trimestre en el cargo. De forma un tanto sorprendente dejó a Israel en un segundo plano. Lo que no fue sorprendente en absoluto fue su silencio por el respeto a los derechos humanos en aquella región, pero eso ya estaba previsto y es coherente con lo que ya hizo en su primer mandato. El periplo comenzó en Riad, donde Trump fue recibido por el príncipe heredero Mohammed bin Salman. Arabia Saudí comprometió 600.000 millones de dólares en inversiones en EEUU enfocadas en defensa, tecnología y energía. Un foro de inversión reunió a líderes empresariales como Larry Fink de BlackRock y Jane Fraser de Citigroup, subrayando la importancia que el presidente dio al apartado económico de la gira. En Riad se reunió con el presidente interino sirio, Ahmed al-Sharaa, en un encuentro histórico. Anunció el levantamiento de sanciones a Siria para impulsar su estabilización tras la caída de Bashar al-Assad. Esta decisión, respaldada por Arabia Saudí y Qatar, fue elogiada por las cancillerías europeas, pero criticada por Israel, que considera a al-Sharaa un exyihadista. En Doha Trump fue agasajado por el emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani. Qatar firmó acuerdos por 243.000 millones de dólares que incluyen la adquisición de más de 200 aviones Boeing. Desde la base aérea Al Udeid, la mayor instalación militar estadounidense en Oriente Medio, Trump reiteró su prioridad de “terminar conflictos, no iniciarlos”, aunque advirtió que no dudaría en usar el poder militar si fuera necesario. Propuso una “zona de libertad” en Gaza, un concepto vago que ha generado infinidad de especulaciones, pero evitó hablar de la guerra aún en curso en la franja. La gira culminó en Abu Dabi, donde el Gobierno de los Emiratos anunció una inversión de 440.000 millones de dólares en el sector energético estadounidense a lo largo de la próxima década. Trump visitó la Gran Mezquita y la Casa de la Familia Abrahámica tratando de proyectar una imagen de cooperación cultural. Poco antes, en su discurso en Riad, condenó el intervencionismo estadounidense del pasado, y eso fue bien recibido entre los líderes políticos del golfo Pérsico, pero alarmó a defensores de los derechos humanos. Un aspecto notable fue la exclusión de Israel del itinerario, lo que revela que hay tensiones latentes con su primer ministro, Benjamin Netanyahu. Trump ignoró las objeciones israelíes para levantar las sanciones a Siria y negociar con Hamás con el objetivo de liberar al rehén estadounidense Edan Alexander. Todo de forma directa y dejando a un lado a los israelíes. Además, avanzó que quiere reiniciar las conversaciones nucleares con Irán mediadas por Omán, lo que ha provocado nuevas fricciones con Israel, que teme un acuerdo favorable a Teherán. La gira, salteada por una serie de aciertos, supone el regreso al pragmatismo que caracterizó a su primer mandato, más centrado en la estabilidad económica que en decisiones rupturistas y problemáticas como la guerra comercial contra todo el mundo.

Josh Sigurdson reports on the real reason President Donald Trump went to the Middle East and made major deals with Syria, Qatar and the Saudis. Only days after absurd stories came out claiming Donald Trump was splitting with Netanyahu and Israel, Trump signed a 1.2 trillion dollars economic pact with Qatar, one of the main countries arming Iran which Trump just spent 1 trillion dollars funding military efforts against (the largest military budget in US history). Trump also signed a $600 billion investment pact with Saudi Arabia which is in the middle of leaving the US dollar for BRICS+. Trump also signed a pact with Syria's Al Qaeda leader al-Jolani, a puppet of Israel. He is now lifting sanctions on Syria. Alongside the world leaders in the Middle East, the main investment deals made were in artificial intelligence (AI) and digital technology. As we have been saying for years, this is about a technocratic shift from the west to the east. Trump is meeting with those creating the new global governance system. BlackRock's Larry Fink, OpenAI's Sam Altman, Elon Musk, Karp of Palantir. This couldn't be more blatant. The deal that was made would involve the shift into a total technocracy worldwide with digital IDs, CBDCs, AI militarism and the end to human independence as has been laid out by The World Economic Forum. As western civilization inevitably falls, they need to make it appear as though there was a fight. In reality, that which appears as being part of a fight is actually the very replacement system meant for the inevitable collapse. This is why Elon Musk just sold X to X-AI for $33 billion and is establishing a social credit based digital ID system. This is why the trade war is happening, allowing the manufacturing shift and the need for food and grid rations. But let's all just keep sitting on our hands and thinking massive military spending and AI takeover of jobs is "winning." Get prepared today. Stay tuned for more from WAM!

Two explosive commentaries unravel the real story behind Donald Trump's high-profile visit to Saudi Arabia—an audacious display of American power, flanked by tech and finance titans like Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and Larry Fink. Far from symbolic, the trip marks a pivotal shift in U.S. foreign policy aimed at countering China's growing influence over energy and AI in the Gulf region. Meanwhile, mainstream media narratives collapse under scrutiny as financial doomsayers are proven wrong: inflation cools, markets rebound, and confidence surges. This is a deep dive into the geopolitical chess match where AI, oil, and currency supremacy are the ultimate prizes—and Trump is going all-in.

"China ha ganado la guerra comercial a EEUU. Trump solo ha tirado por la borda su arma arancelaria"En la reunión de Donald Trump en Arabia Saudí, el director ejecutivo de BlackRock, Larry Fink advirtió que el bono americano sigue cercano al 4,5% instando a la cautela con la deuda de EEUU. Alicia García Herrero, economista jefe para Asia Pacífico en Natixis, ha explicado que la guerra comercial no ha terminado, pero que los aranceles sí porque Donald Trump no puede utilizarlos. "Trump por fin ha entendido que la estrategia arancelaria no es la buena para contener a China", pero seguirá en su objetivo y su viaje al Golfo es parte del plan para que no dependa de la tecnología china. "La guerra comercial entre EEUU y China sigue, aunque no sea con aranceles". Para el bono americano el país más importante es Japón y parte de Europa, aunque sean entidades privadas y Taiwán también es muy importante, porque las aseguradores taiwanesas tienen gran parte del PIB. "China sola no puede acabar con el bono americano", pero la economía americana no puede operar contra la segunda economía del mundo, China. "Hasta ahora China ha ganado la guerra comercial, Trump ha liquidado su poder de aranceles" porque los ha usado mal. Justo lo que Trump advertía a los BRICS, que si desdolarizaban impondría aranceles, unos aranceles que ya ha eliminado, ha explicado Alicia García. "Trump ha tirado por la borda los aranceles, por ahora China ha ganado la guerra comercial". Alicia ha explicado que entiende la preocupación del presidente estadounidense por la dependencia estadounidense respecto a China.

On April 9th, the U.S. administration announced a 90-day tariff pause on country-specific reciprocal tariffs, exempting key tech imports while maintaining high tariffs on select Chinese goods. This decision introduced extraordinary volatility to global markets. Notably, the S&P 500 rebounded nearly 6% last week, marking one of its largest daily jumps in history. Meanwhile, long-term U.S. Treasury yields spiked, reflecting investors' altered risk perceptions in light of the tariff adjustments. At the same time, the U.S. dollar tumbled to three-year lows against major currencies, highlighting concerns about future currency valuations in these tumultuous times. But the question remains, how should investors respond when considering the implications of prolonged uncertainty, including potential recession risks, impacts on corporate investment, and consumer spending?In this episode of The Bid, Oscar Pulido is joined by Alex Brazier, Global Head of Investment & Portfolio Solutions and Helen Jewell, Chief Investment Officer for EMEA at BlackRock.

It seems we have reached an inflection point in the fight to adopt what President Trump has called an “America First Investment Policy”: Last week, two influential Wall Street financiers appear to have broken with their colleagues' determination to continue investing in China first. Friday morning, Shark Tank personality Kevin O'Leary objected to the unfairness of Communist Chinese companies enjoying privileged access to U.S. capital markets. He demanded that Paul Atkins, the Securities and Exchange Commission's newly confirmed chairman, ensure that they instead comply with our laws and regulations – just as O'Leary's companies and everybody elses' must.  Later that day, BlackRock chairman Larry Fink declared that “nefarious” Chinese companies should be delisted from our capital markets. If he now walks the walk, and divests his company's vast holdings propping up Xi Jinping's regime, we may finally stop underwriting our enemy.    This is Frank Gaffney.

China doet een laatste bod in de biedingenstrijd met de VS. Het land verhoogt nog één keer z'n importheffingen voor Amerika, naar 125 procent. Maar daar stopt het ook, wat betreft Xi Jinping. De Chinese overheid noemt de nóg hogere heffingen van Donald Trump een 'grap in de economische wereldgeschiedenis'. Volgens China maakt het niet uit, want Amerikaanse producten zijn nu zo duur dat geen enkele Chinees zo gek is om ze te kopen. Geeft China zich gewonnen? Dat hoor je in deze aflevering. En daarin gaat het ook over de nieuwe fase in de handelsoorlog tussen Amerika en de Europa. Want EU-baas Ursula von der Leyen heeft een nieuw doelwit op het oog. Het is een sector die niet gewend is om belasting te betalen: Amerikaanse techbedrijven. Die worden als het aan Von der Leyen ligt belast met extra heffingen.

This week's Swan Signal Live unpacks a major market anomaly: on a day when the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and gold all dropped sharply, Bitcoin stayed strong—even ticking up. The team explores whether we're witnessing the early stages of a true decoupling, as more voices from TradFi, including Joe Weisenthal and Larry Fink, acknowledge Bitcoin's resilience.They also dive into Trump's new tariff strategy, branded “Liberation Day,” raising questions about trade math, inflation, and how tariffs could play into broader economic negotiations. While some call the plan misguided, the crew sees it as a blunt but intentional negotiation tactic—one that may pair with interest rate cuts to boost markets before the midterms.The show also calls out Galaxy Digital's shady Terra Luna dealings, with Novogratz dumping $100M worth of Luna while publicly promoting it. It's a clear reminder of why Swan stays Bitcoin only—to protect investors from altcoin pump-and-dumps.On Jack Dorsey's claim that Bitcoin will “fail” if it doesn't become a medium of exchange, the team pushes back. Bitcoin is following a natural monetary evolution: first a collectible, then a store of value, and eventually, a medium of exchange—driven not by consumers, but businesses who want to be paid in Bitcoin.Finally, they react to Tom Lee's $150K BTC prediction by year-end. Some see it as a floor, not a ceiling—especially if the U.S. adopts the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve Act. Start buying your first Bitcoin in just minutes.

Gold prices are solidly up and hit more record highs Monday. 58% of fund managers view gold as the best-performing haven in a trade war—leaving Bitcoin with only a 3% preference. Gold's no longer just a hedge against inflation; it's being treated as the hedge against everything: geopolitical risk, de-globalization, fiscal dysfunction, and now, weaponized trade. Meanwhile, Tokenized gold continues to skyrocket on Ethereum, far above any other blockchain.~This episode is sponsored by iTrust Capital~iTrustCapital | Get $100 Funding Reward + No Monthly Fees when you sign up using our custom link! ➜ https://bit.ly/iTrustPaul00:00 Intro00:08 Sponsor iTrust00:35 Gold pumping00:45 Peter Schiff01:15 Silicon Valley crash01:55 Argument dead03:10 RWA03:30 Tiamonds launches gold03:49 Fort knox audit?04:20 Elon on Fort Knox Audit05:10 Global Tokenized audits creates panic06:20 BRICS using blockchain instead?07:00 Record physical purchases07:22 Russia Using ethereum07:41 Swiss bank using ETH08:11 Gold DeFi Yields08:24 Banks Love Gold Collateral09:30 ETH is the DeFi King09:48 Larry Fink loses hope in economy???11:11 Larry Fink: Bitcoin vs Tokenization11:57 Stablecoin regulation coming soon12:30 Circle IPO12:45 Trump signing DeFi bill13:01 Did eth bottom?13:19 ETH upgrade incoming13:48 Outro#Bitcoin #Gold #ethereum~Gold Hits All-Time High!

IntroductionLIVE from a bottomless pit of CEO pay, it's a Business Pants Friday Show here at March 21st Studios, featuring AnalystHole Matt Moscardi. On today's weekly wrap up: Nelson Peltz hates woke ice cream, Self-hating Cybertrucks, and anti-ESG manbabies Our show today is being sponsored by Free Float Analytics, the only platform measuring board power, connections, and performance for FREE.Story of the Week (DR):‘Incompetent:' Jamie Dimon unloads on proxy advisor ISSJamie Dimon said Glass Lewis and Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) should be “gone and dead and done with”, as he also launched an attack on those who pay for their services.In an interview with Semafor at Blackrock's retirement summit, Mr Dimon said: “Anyone who gives them money – shame on you.”Unilever hit ‘new levels of oppressiveness,' Ben & Jerry's claims as its CEO was sacked over social activismIce cream maker Ben & Jerry's has accused its parent company of firing its CEO David Stever over his support of the brand's progressive politics.On Tuesday, the Vermont-based brand filed an amended complaint in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging that Unilever “has repeatedly threatened Ben & Jerry's personnel, including CEO David Stever, should they fail to comply with Unilever's efforts to silence the Social Mission.”Ben & Jerry's said Unilever informed its board on March 3 that it was removing and replacing Ben & Jerry's CEO David Stever. Ben & Jerry's said that violated its merger agreement with Unilever, which states that any decisions regarding a CEO's removal must come after a consultation with an advisory committee from Ben & Jerry's board.“empowered to protect and defend Ben & Jerry's brand equity and integrity”White man David Stever, 4 women of color (one who is the chair), and two black men. In Vermont? Are they trolling us?!?! I guess it can be done. Unilever board member Nelson Peltz is still trying to find a white actor for Black PantherUnilever has not publicly disclosed a reason for Stever's firingThe ice cream company has a unique corporate structure that was meant to protect its activist mission, even after its 2000 sale to Unilever:Independent Board of Directors: Unlike most Unilever-owned brands, Ben & Jerry's has an independent board specifically tasked with preserving the company's social mission.Merger Agreement Protections: The 2000 acquisition agreement required consultation with the board for key leadership decisions, including hiring or firing the CEO.Social Mission Oversight: The board exists to prevent the dilution of the company's activist identity—something that appears to be under increasing pressure.Ben & Jerry's Founders Say They Stand Behind Ousted CEOBoeing Sued for Wrongful Death by Family of WhistleblowerBoeing pushed John Barnett, who was a quality manager at Boeing for nearly three decades, to his death by harassing and intimidating him after he raised safety concerns about the company's plant building the 787 Dreamliner in Charleston, South Carolina, a wrongful death lawsuit filed in federal court in the state alleges. His family claim in their suit that Boeing responded by carrying out a “campaign of harassment, abuse and intimidation intended to discourage, discredit and humiliate him until he would either give up or be discredited”.In the evening of March 8th last year, Barnett left the law offices of Boeing's outside counsel in Charleston after testifying for two days in the OSHA case. Barnett was giving his account of how Boeing violated its own policies and procedures, and FAA rules, during his seven years as a quality inspector at the North Charleston plant that assembles the 787 Dreamliner. He'd delayed a trip back to his home in Louisiana to finish his deposition the next day, a Saturday. Videos cited in the police report show Barnett leaving the hotel around 8:30 PM, and getting in his Clemson orange, Dodge truck. When Barnett failed to show by the 10 AM starting time for his final round of testimony, Turkewitz called the Holiday Inn to conduct a “welfare check.”Note: “America come together or die!!! Pray that the motherfk…ers who destroyed my life pay!!! I pray that Boeing pays!!! Bury me face down so that Boeing and their lying ass leaders can kiss my ass. I can't do this any longer!!! F-k Boeing!!!'Business has been neglected': Longtime Tesla investor demands Elon Musk resign as CEO MMElon Musk Says He Has No Idea What He Did to Make Everybody So Mad at Him"It's really come as quite a shock to me that there is this level of, really, hatred and violence from the left.""My companies make great products that people love and I've never physically hurt anyone.”“So why the hate and violence against me?”"I always thought that the left, you know, Democrats, were supposed to be the party of empathy, the party of caring, and yet they're burning down cars, they're firebombing dealerships, they're firing bullets into dealerships, they're smashing up Teslas," Musk said. "Tesla is a peaceful company. We've never done anything harmful.""I've never done anything harmful."“Because I am a deadly threat to the woke mind parasite and the humans it controls."Tesla just recalled basically all the Cybertrucks ever sold in AmericaTesla workers in Germany say they don't have time to use the bathroomTesla workers at a German factory say working conditions don't allow them enough time for drinking or bathroom breaks.Over 3,000 workers at a Tesla gigafactory near Berlin have signed a petition asking for more breaks and an end to intimidation from management, according to a statement from German metalworker's union IG Metall.A Huge Amount of Money Is Missing From TeslaEven the company's financials are now sprouting some glaring questions. As the Financial Times reports, a whopping $1.4 billion appears to have vanished in thin air. The enormous hole arises when examining the carmaker's capital expenditures and how those compare to the reported rise of the value of its assets.According to Tesla's cashflow statements, the firm spent $6.3 billion on "purchases of property and equipment excluding finance leases, net of sales" in the second half of 2024. However, its balance sheet claims the gross value of property, plant, and equipment rose by only $4.9 billion — leaving an eyebrow-raising $1.4 billion discrepancy.Musk Set to Receive Top-Secret Briefing on U.S. War Plans for ChinaMusk Tells Tesla Workers: Don't Sell Your SharesTesla board members, executive sell off over $100 million of stock in recent weeksTogether, four top officers at the company have offloaded over $100 million in shares since early February.Last week, longtime Musk ally James Murdoch became the latest to do so, exercising a stock option and selling shares worth approximately $13 million, according to an SEC filing.Elon Musk's brother, Kimbal Musk, who also sits on the board, unloaded 75,000 shares worth approximately $27 million last month, according to a filing.The chairman of the board, Robyn Denholm, has offloaded more than $75 million dollars worth of shares in two transactions in the past five weeks, federal filings show.Goodliest of the Week (MM/DR):DR: Chobani CEO: Why we're now giving all workers at least 12 weeks of parental leaveDR: JD Vance rips globalization, calling cheap labor a 'drug'MM: Tesla Cybertruck deliveries are on hold as trims are flying off the 'bulletproof' truck DRThey recalled ALL of them - imagine if Mary Barra put out a car at GM that, 1 year after releasing, they had to recall ALL of them?

They were not mentioned in 2023.

Regulators have previously found that the advanced driver assistance software shuts off a fraction of a second before making impact.It's a highly questionable approach that has raised concerns over Tesla trying to evade guilt by automatically turning off any possibly incriminating driver assistance features before a crash.PredictionsDR: Bowyer Research and Robbie Starbuck blame female CEOs in the S&P 500 for reducing the overall percentage of male CEOs in the S&P 500MM: Bowyer Research and Robbie Starbuck blame all the women running the big 5 - Larry Fink, Ron O'Hanley, Salim Ramji, Gary Retelny, and Bob Mann - for the failure of their shareholder proposals and demand a report from each requesting an analysis of the risk of having so many woke women running the big 5
