En Capital Intereconomía repasamos las claves del día y la evolución de los mercados en Asia, Wall Street y Europa en una jornada marcada por la fuerte corrección del sector tecnológico, el repunte de las tensiones geopolíticas y el temor a que los bancos centrales mantengan una política monetaria más restrictiva durante más tiempo. Las ventas se intensifican en Asia, con el KOSPI registrando un fuerte desplome y el Nikkei 225 ampliando sus pérdidas arrastrado por la debilidad de las grandes compañías tecnológicas. En Estados Unidos, el NASDAQ Composite sufrió su peor sesión desde abril de 2025 tras un sólido informe de empleo que reactivó las dudas sobre futuras subidas de tipos de interés. En el primer análisis de la mañana, Eduardo Bolinches, analista de Invertia, examina si la corrección tecnológica responde a una simple toma de beneficios o si puede convertirse en un movimiento de mayor profundidad. También analiza el impacto que está teniendo el repunte de los precios del petróleo tras los últimos ataques entre Israel e Irán y las implicaciones que este escenario puede tener para la inflación y el crecimiento económico. Además, repasamos las principales noticias de la prensa económica nacional e internacional. En el bloque internacional, Enrique Navarro, analista experto en geoestrategia y defensa, analiza la visita de Xi Jinping a North Korea, un viaje de alto contenido estratégico que refuerza la alianza entre Pekín y Pyongyang en un momento de creciente rivalidad geopolítica en Asia. También abordamos la situación política en Perú, donde la segunda vuelta de las elecciones presidenciales se mantiene en empate técnico, aumentando la incertidumbre sobre el futuro político y económico del país.

It's Tuesday, June 2nd, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed 92% of Australians say it's risky to affirm Christian beliefs publicly  The first Australian Christian Freedom Index was released at the Australian Parliament last week.  The Index produced a national survey of more than 10,000 Australian Christians concerning their views on faith and freedom in their country. A full 92% of respondents in the survey felt it is riskier to affirm Christian beliefs publicly today than it was five years ago.  And, of the 74 Acts of Parliament produced that negatively affect Christian freedom, nearly half were issued in the last five years.  Thus far, 40 Christians have been penalized for their beliefs by fines or imprisonment.  Chinese Communists sentenced 31 Christians to prison In related news, persecution against Christians is on the rise in China as well.  China Aid reports that a communist court in Hubei Province has sentenced 31 members of a house church fellowship for trumped up charges, to 2-4 years in prison. A 77-year old Christian leader, named Yang Zhijing, was sentenced to three years and two months in prison, and was fined $1,180 under the charge of being involved in a cult. His defense argued that he only advocated basic Christian teachings, that “faith in Jesus leads to Heaven” and that “everyone is sinful and must confess and repent.” The defense argued these were central doctrines in orthodox Christianity. In 2 Timothy 3:12, the Apostle Paul wrote, “Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.” U.S. military killed 3 narco-terrorists in Pacific Ocean The United States is back to striking drug boats in the Caribbean Sea. The U.S. Southern Military Command announced that it struck a narco boat in the eastern Pacific, killing three over the weekend.  Plus, the U.S. military struck several boats earlier last week. The death toll has risen to 205 for suspected narco-terrorists trying to traffic drugs into the United States by water.  100,000 Canadians have been killed by euthanasia Canada's euthanasia deaths have soared past 100,000 since legalization in 2016. A tragic new report records 17,000 killings in 2025, up from 16,500 in 2024 and 7,500 in 2020. Add this to 104,000 abortions in the country. That makes up 40% of the total deaths in Canada in a given year.  Listen to Euthanasia Prevention Coalition Director's Alex Schadenburg's comments on euthanasia at a committee hearing in Canada's parliament.  SCHADENBURG: “Canada is increasingly seen internationally as a cautionary example. The rapid growth of euthanasia deaths and the expansion of the types of cases are being closely watched abroad. … “More broadly, Canada's assisted dying law is vague. While Health Canada provides guidance, the legal framework allows for wide interpretation and lacks effective oversight.” Stocks inflated now like 2001 dot-com bust & 2009 real estate bust The S&P 500 Technology Sector stock metric gained 36% in two months. That's the biggest jump in 36 years. And the NASDAQ Composite took a 23% leap over the same time period.  Artificial Intelligence is driving much of the growth, according to some experts.  Meanwhile, the S&P 500 Price-to-Earnings Ratio reached 33. That's the same territory the ratio exceeded in the 2001 dot-com bust and 2009 real estate bust. America's twelve most highly capitalized companies have reached a worth of $30 trillion which is five times what they were worth six years ago. By contrast, income for these companies increased by only 2.5-fold.  The Buffett Indicator, which takes the total stock market funding as a percentage of the Gross Domestic Product, has reached 232%. That's twice what it was before the 2009 real estate bust, and four times what it was just after the bust. Virginia Democrats want constitutional right to kill baby at birth The state of Virginia is looking to legalize abortion up until birth with a proposed constitutional amendment.  A Roman Catholic Bishop, Michael Francis Burbidge, spoke out against the proposed amendment. He said, “This may be the only election in our lifetime where you hear me, or the Church, speak directly on how to approach the ballot box. God Himself knitted us together in our mother's womb, and our Lord Himself instituted the sacrament of marriage.” Indeed, in Psalm 139:13, David told God, “For You created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's womb.” Nevada and Missouri have abortion on the ballot The states of Nevada and Missouri are also planning referendums on abortion in the 2026 mid-term elections. Thus far, 16 states have run referendums on abortion since the reversal of Roe v. Wade. Only South Dakota preserved a trigger ban on abortion. Nebraska allowed for 12-week abortions, and Florida allows for 6-week abortions. Pro-abortion majorities voted to keep abortion legal in Arizona, Colorado, California, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Ohio, Nevada, New York, and Vermont. Planned Parenthood has $2 billion in annual income And finally, Planned Parenthood is raking in the dollars. The largest abortion provider in America has released its latest annual report, recording $2.14 billion in annual income -- up from $1.29 billion in 2014-2015, and $1.64 billion in 2019-2020 prior to the reversal of Roe v. Wade. Psalm 37:35-36 speaks of powerful evil forces. ”When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it. I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a native green tree. Yet he passed away, and behold, he was no more. Indeed, I sought him, but he could not be found.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, June 2nd, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Investing.com framed the latest US equity rally as a melt up driven by earnings momentum. The outlook hinges on whether profit growth and guidance can justify higher valuation multiples across the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite. Market breadth and policy remain key variables, with the Federal Reserve's rate path and inflation data shaping financial conditions. Founders may see a more receptive window for IPOs, follow on offerings, and stock financed M&A if fundamentals stay strong. CFOs can use the window to refinance, extend duration, and reinforce working capital. Sales leaders should calibrate pricing, quotas, and contract terms as enterprise buyers gradually unfreeze projects.

On Sunday, President Trump rejected Iran's latest response to his administration's ceasefire proposal by taking to Truth Social, calling it "totally unacceptable." In the meantime, the Strait of Hormuz, a critical oil chokepoint through which a fifth of the world's oil travels, remains effectively blocked. And people everywhere are beginning to feel the squeeze. The national average cost of gas is now $4.55 per gallon, and diesel is inching closer to $6 a gallon. The Philippines has long declared a national energy emergency, government workers moving to a four-day work week. Lufthansa has canceled 20,000 flights through October of this year. But curiously, you wouldn't know it if you wandered down Wall Street. Last week, the S&P 500 Index and Nasdaq Composite hit an all-time high, and both have continued to climb this week. This week, host Brooke Gladstone sits down with Bryan Walsh, editor of Vox's Future Perfect section, to discuss the phenomenon of “economic blindness,” or the jarring mismatch between economic reality and the markets. Plus, how human evolution may play a role in this cognitive dissonance.   On the Media is supported by listeners like you. Support OTM by donating today (https://pledge.wnyc.org/support/otm).

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite have scaled new summits, inching up to new record highs, but beneath the surface of this historic rally, a tug-of-war is emerging between robust corporate fundamentals and a thickening fog of global instability.

El comportamiento reciente de los mercados financieros refleja un escenario marcado por contrastes entre regiones. Según Pepe Baynat, director de Bolsas y Futuros, la atención se centra especialmente en la fortaleza de Estados Unidos frente a una Europa que avanza con más cautela. Baynat destaca que “lo curioso lo vemos en bolsas americanas”, donde los índices continúan en máximos, impulsados en gran medida por el dinamismo de los grandes valores tecnológicos. En particular, el Nasdaq Composite arranca con fuerza, consolidando una tendencia que refuerza la idea de una cierta descorrelación respecto a Europa. En este contexto, el experto señala que “hay que sobreponderar EEUU e infraponderar Europa”, al menos en el corto plazo. Sin embargo, este desequilibrio no necesariamente se mantiene en el tiempo. Baynat matiza que “no sería extraño que Europa termine de recoger el optimismo de EEUU”, lo que sugiere un posible efecto arrastre que podría equilibrar el comportamiento entre ambos mercados si las condiciones acompañan. En cuanto a valores concretos, el análisis técnico ofrece claves interesantes. Naturgy se encuentra en un momento decisivo, enfrentándose a una zona de resistencia en niveles históricamente elevados. El valor “lucha con la zona de máximos”, lo que obliga a vigilar si consigue superarla con claridad, un movimiento que podría abrir la puerta a nuevas subidas. Por su parte, Symbotic muestra un perfil atractivo dentro del mercado estadounidense. Tras superar máximos y atravesar una fase correctiva, el valor retoma el sesgo positivo y “se convierte de nuevo en título alcista”. Este comportamiento refuerza la percepción de fortaleza en determinados segmentos del mercado norteamericano, especialmente aquellos vinculados a la innovación y la tecnología. En conjunto, el análisis dibuja un escenario en el que Estados Unidos lidera el impulso bursátil, mientras Europa se mantiene a la expectativa, con potencial para sumarse más adelante a esa tendencia si el optimismo se consolida.

US stocks pulled back on Thursday, led by a drop in software and higher oil prices, as investor uncertainty toward the trajectory of the Iran war hovered over the market.The S&P 500 traded down 0.41% to close at 7,108.40, after earlier hitting a new all-time intraday high. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite declined 0.89% to finish at 24,438.50. It had also scored a new all-time high in the session. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 179.71 points, or 0.36%, to finish at 49,310.32.Shares of IBM and ServiceNow tumbled more than 8% and almost 18%, respectively, after the companies posted their latest quarterly results. While IBM beat on the top and bottom lines, the company maintained its full-year guidance, disappointing investors. For ServiceNow, the company's subscription revenue growth was hindered by the Middle East conflict.SPI down 4 – Gold down – Oil up – PLS FMG Quarterlies.—Marcus Today – Daily Market InsightsMarcus Today provides clear, practical commentary for self-directed investors – covering markets, portfolios, education, and decision-making without the noise.If you'd like to go further:Start a free 14-day trial of Marcus Today http://bit.ly/mt-trial-podcastJoin Marcus Today Use code MTPODCAST for 10% off http://bit.ly/mt-join-podcast-offerMT20 – Managed ETF Portfolio A professionally managed portfolio run by Marcus Padley and the team, using ASX-listed ETFs with active market timing. http://bit.ly/mt20-podcastPrinciples – How We Think About Investing A short video series on timing, behaviour, and decision-making.

U.S. equity markets finished lower on Thursday, with all three (3) major indices retreating from recent highs as intraday strength proved unsustainable. Both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite briefly printed fresh record levels before reversing, pressured by weakness in software and broader technology names, which weighed on overall market sentiment.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite finished at record levels on Wednesday after President Donald Trump extended the U.S. ceasefire with Iran, while upbeat earnings reports also lifted sentiment.The broad market index added 1.05% to finish at 7,137.90, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq added 1.64% to settle at 24,657.57. The latter had hit a new all-time intraday high in the session. The S&P 500 had erased all of its Iran war losses last week. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 340.65 points, or 0.69%, to end the day at 49,490.03.SPI down 23 - Quarterlies drop - Gold up - Oil up—Marcus Today – Daily Market InsightsMarcus Today provides clear, practical commentary for self-directed investors – covering markets, portfolios, education, and decision-making without the noise.If you'd like to go further:Start a free 14-day trial of Marcus Today http://bit.ly/mt-trial-podcastJoin Marcus Today Use code MTPODCAST for 10% off http://bit.ly/mt-join-podcast-offerMT20 – Managed ETF Portfolio A professionally managed portfolio run by Marcus Padley and the team, using ASX-listed ETFs with active market timing. http://bit.ly/mt20-podcastPrinciples – How We Think About Investing A short video series on timing, behaviour, and decision-making.

Markets are sending mixed signals—and in this episode, we break down how to stay grounded when everything feels uncertain. We unpack the sharp reversal from March's selloff to April's surge, with the NASDAQ Composite, S&P 500, and Dow Jones Industrial Average all turning positive for the year despite ongoing tensions surrounding the U.S.–Iran conflict. The real focus, though, is on decision-making: why indecisiveness can quietly destroy returns, how emotional reactions lead investors to miss the market's best days, and why having conviction before volatility hits is one of the biggest edges you can develop.We also dive into one of the most overlooked advantages in investing—actually reading annual reports. From spotting inconsistencies in company narratives to identifying genuine growth opportunities (and AI strategies that are real vs. just buzzwords), this episode lays out a practical framework for building your “ready-to-buy” watchlist. The takeaway is simple but powerful: do the homework now so you can act fast when opportunities appear. Whether you're navigating geopolitical risk, market whiplash, or your own instincts, this episode will help you think more clearly, act faster, and invest smarter.*This podcast contains general information that may not be suitable for everyone.

Stocks dropped fast in March. Headlines turned sharply bearish. Goldman Sachs warned of a potential 20%+ decline. Commentators pointed to oil shocks, rising rates, and recession risks.Paying attention to all that led investors astray.In this 16-minute video, I walk through the Nasdaq Composite year-to-date through April 16, 2026, exactly where the headlines told you to panic versus where our rules told us to gear up, and what happened next (spoiler: the market erased its Iran war losses in weeks).If you followed the news, you probably sat it out. If you followed a schedule and predefined rules, you're already in new profit territory.And, believe it or not, the pundits are already warning again. The lesson never changes: adhere to a methodology, follow a schedule, ignore the headlines. This is a public episode.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite are breaking records and riding massive win streaks, but is the market ignoring the risks right in front of it? Aninda Mitra, Head of Asia Macro and Investment Strategy at BNY Investments discusses a fascinating Wall Street session where the Nasdaq advanced 1.6% to hit 24,016 (marking an 11-day win streak) and the S&P 500 gained 0.8% to close at 7,023. While investors seem buoyed by hopes of a resolution to the Iran war, the Dow shed 72 points, reminding us that the broader economic picture remains complex.

Trump lockert den Jones Act für 60 Tage, damit Öl, Erdgas, Düngemittel und Kohle leichter in US-Häfen gelangen und die Märkte im Iran-Krieg stabilisiert werden. Trotzdem steht die Wall Street unter Druck: Der Dow Jones verliert rund 200 Punkte, der S&P 500 etwa 0,6 %, der Nasdaq Composite rund 0,4 %. Belastet wird der Markt von heißen Inflationsdaten: Der PPI steigt im Februar um 0,7 % statt erwarteter 0,3 %. Gleichzeitig springt der Ölpreis an, mit WTI bei knapp 99 Dollar und Brent bei rund 109 Dollar – kurz vor der Fed-Entscheidung steigt damit der Druck auf Jerome Powell.

Nevertheless, US indices ended the day higher, with the Nasdaq Composite closing up 1.26%, and Asia's tech-biased indices following suit.

En el consultorio de bolsa de hoy, Javier Alfayate advierte de un mercado que avanza “en dos direcciones”: mientras sectores defensivos como salud, utilities o energía muestran fortaleza, otros segmentos sufren un deterioro notable. Esta divergencia interna, con un número elevado de valores marcando mínimos anuales pese a que los índices siguen en tendencia alcista, lanza una señal de advertencia sobre la amplitud del mercado. A nivel técnico, Alfayate señala que los grandes índices mantienen estructura positiva, pero empiezan a situarse en zonas sensibles. El equiponderado del S&P 500 sigue alcista, al igual que varios selectivos europeos, pero el Nasdaq Composite muestra debilidad tras encadenar cierres por debajo de su media clave. Javier Alfayate insiste en que, aunque el mercado aún es alcista, la pérdida de determinados niveles podría complicar el escenario en las próximas semanas. En el foco también está NVIDIA, considerado uno de los pilares del mercado tecnológico. Alfayate señala que, mientras conserve niveles técnicos relevantes, la estructura se mantiene, pero advierte de que un mal resultado podría generar un efecto negativo en cadena. Por ello, recomienda vigilar soportes y priorizar sectores fuertes frente a valores bajistas o débiles. Más allá de Estados Unidos, el experto destaca oportunidades en mercados como Noruega —por su exposición a energía— y en emergentes, donde el comportamiento técnico es sólido pese a las tensiones comerciales entre Washington y Pekín. La conclusión es clara: todavía hay opciones para estar invertido, pero el momento exige mayor selectividad, disciplina con los niveles de salida y atención constante a las señales técnicas.

David Trainer, founder and president at New Constructs, says the intensity of competition in the artificial-intelligence business is setting up a path for big winners and losers, and he says that it's nearly time "to see a lot of the companies in the AI race fall out." Trainer cits cash flows turning negative, and says that accounting tricks have hidden much of the problem by allowing companies to keep some debts off of balance sheets. When focusing on what he calls the real debt level of the companies, Trainer says "the cash flow for these companies is highly negative and it cannot be sustained." Further, Trainer notes that with so much money committed to the development of A.I., there is no guarantee that the companies that get in trouble will find a market waiting to take them over once the financial troubles hit. In "The Week That Is," Vijay Marolia, chief investment officer at Regal Point Capital, discusses how last week's software sell-off isn't changing his take on how "Software will eat the world," but it is a symptom of how the speed of development is amping up investor concerns about the A.I. revolution. He also discusses how and why the "Sell America" sentiment has been building, and why the Dow Jones Industrial Average — and not the Nasdaq Composite or the Standard & Poor's 500 — is leading the way for market gains early this year. David Bach, author, "The Automatic Millionaire: A Powerful One-Step Plan to Live and Finish Rich," celebrates the revised, 20th anniversary edition of the book and the countless people it has helped by getting them started small towards long-term lifelong savings and living goals. Bach — who last appeared on Money Life a decade ago with the 10th-anniversary edition of the book — discusses how time and technology have changed, but how they also have helped savers reach their goals more easily.

US equities were lower this week with the S&P 500 down for a second-straight week, Nasdaq Composite for a fifth-straight week, and the small-cap Russell 2000 down for the third week in the past four. Software saw a fairly tepid bounce from its recent plunge and elevated volatility amid ongoing AI displacement fears. This week also saw spillover of the AI displacement narrative into other industries, including asset managers, wealth management, trucking, logistics, and commercial real estate.

Earnings and Big Tech remain in focus, with Alphabet beating Wall Street's expectations but causing some investors to take flight in the wake of projected capex spending. The rotation out of tech stocks continued on Wednesday - the Nasdaq Composite dropped 1.5%. China's Hong Kong-listed technology stocks slid overnight with the Hang Seng Tech Index now 20% below its October peak. The threat of VAT increases being imposed on internet platforms exacerbated the move. The ECB and the Bank of England are both expected to keep rates on hold today. With investors hypnotised by swings in gold and silver prices this year, it's easy to lose sight of oil and natural gas markets.  In light of the current geopolitical tensions impacting these markets, Norbert Rücker, Head of Economics and Next Generation Research joins the podcast to put things in perspective.(00:00) - Introduction: Roman Canziani, Head of Product & Investment Content (00:38) - Markets wrap-up: Bernadette Anderko, Product & Investment Content (05:58) - Oil and Gas: Norbert Rücker, Head of Macro & Next Generation Research (12:01) - Closing remarks: Roman Canziani, Head of Product & Investment Content Would you like to support this show?

Michael Nadeau went risk-off in October and has been targeting Bitcoin's fair value near $65K. In this episode, he joins Ryan to unpack what changed after BTC broke below $80K, why he does not think this is the macro low yet, and what a real bottom typically looks like (capitulation, then apathy). They also dig into the new wild card: incoming Fed chair Kevin Warsh, and why “rates down” could still mean tighter liquidity if the balance sheet shrinks. Mike walks through the key cycle signals he is watching (MVRV/realized price, 200-week moving average, long-term holder behavior, miners), how Bitcoin tends to lead the Nasdaq Composite, and the price zones on his watch list for ETH and SOL as he prepares to scale back into risk.

Bryce Doty, senior portfolio manager at Sit Investment Associates, says that history has shown that nearly every new Federal Reserve chairman does "something dumb" when they first get the job. With Jerome Powell soon to be out as Fed chair, Doty says the central bank is in a tricky place, where it could make a cut before the change and have the next chairman come in anxious to cut further, making a policy mistake that hurts the market, but creates buying opportunities for investors willing to ride it out. He's not the only one on today's show fearful of a Fed mistake, as that is the nightmare scenario for Dustin Reid, chief investment strategist at Mackenzie Investments, who says in the Big Interview that the economy has gotten to a point where further moves forward may have some negative impacts, hurting credit markets, raising more potential for a downturn and recession and, generally, not providing the classic economic boosts that frequently drive the markets higher.  In the "Talking Technicals" interview, Gregory Harmon, president at Dragonfly Capital Management, says he is expecting a small-cap rally to lead the market higher into year-end, and he says that the large-cap stocks — as measured by the Standard & Poor's 500 — will follow suit, and that the question will be whether the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite comes along for the ride. "Technicals are all pointing higher, earnings are doing fantastic," Harmon says, noting that it would take "an unexpected crisis" to derail the underlying trends pointing "strongly to the upside" right now. Plus, Chuck discusses a visit to the bank to grab some cash that was met with an unusual question from a teller, a query that he says is a reason why consumers may want to have more face-to-face relationships with financial advisers of all stripes, rather than doing everything online.
