Kia ora,Welcome to Tuesday'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 US downgrade is seeing the trend of higher interest rates extend.And in the US, we have more negative signals. The Conference Board's Leading Economic Index (LEI) "plunged" by -1.0% in April, after declining sharply by -0.8% in March. The LEI has declined by -2.0% in the six-month period ending April and is now just shy of signaling 'recession' they say. But it is actually back lower than in the last Trump presidency when there was recession.At an investor day in New York, the boss of the US's largest bank, JPMorgan Chase, said investors are underestimating geopolitical and inflation risks. “Credit today is a bad risk,” he said earlier today. “The people who haven't been through a major downturn are missing the point about what can happen in credit.”In Canada, their largest province has announced a Budget that prioritises higher spending and larger deficits in the coming year in a direct effort to "protect Ontario". The next federal Canadian budget isn't due until at least September.In China, retail sales rose by +5.1% in April from the same month a year ago, moderating from March's over 1-year high of +5.9% and missing market estimates of +5.5%. But is was one of the still-good data releases from China, one that is in a rising trend and even better because they have virtually no inflation.Another positive data release from China came from their industrial production which grew by a claimed +6.1% in April from a year ago and better than the expected +5.5% gain. However, the latest figure eased from the +7.7% growth recorded in March. Meanwhile, electricity production rose only +0.9% in April, hardly supporting the much stronger industrial production data.China, which regulates the wholesale price of petrol and diesel, announced cuts overnight, to take effect immediately.Meanwhile their national real estate development investment fell sharply yet again, and the residential sector was down -9.6% from April last year. And prices for new, and previously-owned housing are still down sharply on a year-on-year basis even if there are small pockets of regional improvements.Meanwhile, Chinese residents trading foreign stocks or holding offshore accounts are being put on notice as authorities take fuller advantage of cross-border data to trace unreported earnings.In the EU, their economy is projected to grow by +1.1% in 2025 and +1.5% in 2026, and both are downgrades from the levels forecasted last autumn. This is according to the European Commission's Spring outlook. The downgrade is primarily attributed to the impact of rising tariffs and increased uncertainty stemming from recent abrupt shifts in US trade policy. On the inflation front, disinflation is now expected to proceed more rapidly than previously anticipated. Inflation in the Eurozone is projected to ease to 2.1% by mid-2025, reaching the ECB's target earlier than previously expected, and to decline further to 1.7% in 2026. And staying in Europe, we should probably note that BNPL giant Klarna, which also operates in New Zealand, is seeing its losses grow. In Q1-2025 they doubled to -US$100 mln as "consumer credit losses" rose sharply, even as revenue grew.Later today (at 4:30pm NZT), the Australian central bank will review its cash rate target, currently at 4.10%. It is widely expected to be cut by -25 bps to 3.85%. That would put it still above the New Zealand OCR at 3.50% and our official rate is also expected to be cut by -25% mid next week to 3.25%, restoring the differential. But although both cuts are expected and priced in, more attention will focus on the next likely shift. Some see the RBA 'done' at one cut with the next move a rise. Background inflation risks are still elevated there, their labour market isn't suffering, and growth prospects are still there even in the current turbulent world.The UST 10yr yield is at 4.47%, up a mere +3 bps from this time yesterday, but curves are steeper.The price of gold will start today at US$3227/oz, and up +US$25 from yesterday.Oil prices are holding again today at just over US$62.50/bbl in the US but the international Brent price is -50 USc lower at US$65/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at 58.9 USc, up +10 bps from yesterday at this time. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 91.8 AUc. Against the euro we are also unchanged at 52.7 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today still just over 67.5 and up +10 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$105,393 and essentially unchanged from yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been moderate however at just under +/-2.2%.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. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

Kia ora,Welcome to Monday'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 with claims of "substantial progress" and "a deal we struck" by the Americans in their Geneva talks with China, but no indications of anything from the Chinese. Bluster from the White House doesn't count for much these days.But first in the coming week, US attention will shift to Wednesday's CPI data for April although no real surprises are anticipated. There will be April data for retail sales too, PPI data, housing starts, and the next sentiment update from the University of Michigan at the end of the week.China will report new loan data, house price data, and updates for industrial production and retail sales. Japan will release its Q1-2025 GDP data, and both South Korea and Australia will release labour market data updates. Locally we will get travel, population, retail and productivity data, not to forget the Q1 ready mixed concrete data (!).In Japan, household spending rose +2.1% in March from a year ago and far better than the expected +0.2% gain. It was the strongest growth since December. Helping was that the previous retreats of spending on food basically stopped, while spending on furniture and on recreation rose a good levels.China's April CPI inflation dipped -0.1% from a year ago, holding the same easing for a second month and that was what was expected. It was the third consecutive month of consumer deflation. Within that result, food prices were up +0.3% but beef prices fell -4.9% from a year ago, lamb prices were down -3.8%. Milk prices fell -1.2%.Deflation was more pronounced for producer prices, down -2.7% from a year ago, the steepest retreat for any month in 2025.Staying in China, April exports came in very much better than the pullback that was expected. In fact their trade surplus was almost as strong as the unusual March trade surplus. Few were expecting this 'good' result. Here are the results by trading partner.New Zealand exported twice what we imported from them. For Australia it was almost the same but the Aussies have a higher dependency on China than we do. For the US, they are still taking more that 10% of all Chinese exports although that is down from nearly 13% usually. But Chinese buying of American goods is now under 6% of all Chinese imports, down from the usual 16%. The Americans may have initiated the tariff war, but the Chinese have reacted far faster.Meanwhile China said its Q1-2025 current account surplus hit a record high, more than treble what it was in the same quarter a year ago. US demand saw their merchandise trade surplus leap, while their services deficit narrowed slightly.Across the Pacific in the US, that foreigners are avoiding travel there has been confirmed by new data that shows an historic drop in inbound travel spending. It has only been a sharper drop in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks and the early stages of the badly-handled response to Covid. The US as a travel destination is a significant reason they have run services surpluses. The travel boycott may build over fears it is unsafe, amid numerous reports of immigration officers detaining tourists or denying entry even for transit.Further the American spring real estate season is shaping up to be 'a dud'. High unsold inventories, high price expectations, and still-high mortgage rates are putting off buyers during this prime selling period.The US barbeque season is approaching and the cost of beef is rising and rising. Tariffs are raising prices and drought is thinning local cattle supply. That means the Americans are more dependent than ever on imported beef, especially ground beef. They are price takers so are paying both the premium for the supply shortfall, plus the full imported tariffs.Looking north, although the Canadian jobless rate rose a touch more than expected to 6.9% in April (and a 3 year high), and there was only a minor rise in overall payroll employment, there was in fact a strong rise in full-time jobs and an equally notable fall in part-time roles.The Canadian dollar fell on the jobless rise. The overall softness however probably means the Bank of Canada will cut its 2.75% policy rate again at their next meeting on June 5 (NZT).The UST 10yr yield is at 4.38%, unchanged from this time Saturday and up +16 bps for the week. The price of gold will start today at US$3323/oz, and down -US$15 from Saturday.Oil prices are holding today at just on US$61/bbl in the US and the international Brent price is still just under US$64/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at 59.1 USc, down -10 bps from Saturday at this time, down -30 bps from a week ago. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 92.2 AUc. Against the euro we are still at 52½ euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today just under 67.6 and little-changed from Saturday, down -20 bps from this time last week.The bitcoin price starts today at US$104,041and up +0.9% from Saturday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just under +/- 1.7%.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.

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has met with King Charles III at Buckingham Palace in London, just hours after the death of Pope Francis. Luxon confirmed he spoke to the King about the death of the Pope during his meeting, but would not divulge further details. A spokesperson for the Prime Minister said Luxon “enjoyed discussing New Zealand issues with the King”. Luxon said discussions with British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer in coming days will revolve around the Ukraine-Russia war and trade. He and Starmer will travel to meet New Zealand soldiers who are training Ukrainian troops. “I certainly welcome any efforts around just and lasting peace for Ukraine … we'll keep discussing options about being involved in peacekeeping support once the conflict concludes. “We, as a small country with limited resources a long way away, aren't going to be the ones to end that war, obviously … but, regardless, we stand beside our set of values which we think Ukraine, Zelensky, embodies.” Luxon said trade would also be a hot topic given the UK had recently become NZ's seventh-largest trading partner. “We just need to keep pushing forward on it and keep pushing food and beverage and tourism.” King Charles had a busy few days ahead of Luxon's arrival, with various Easter-related events. Late last week, he attended the annual Maundy Service, during which he awarded gifts to individuals in recognition of outstanding Christian service. Maundy Thursday takes place on the Thursday prior to Easter and commemorates the Washing of the Feet and the Last Supper of Jesus Christ. On Easter Sunday, Charles was joined by other members of the royal family at St George's Chapel in Windsor for a traditional church service. In his Easter message, the King said: “The abiding message of Easter is that God so loved the world – the whole world – that He sent His son to live among us to show us how to love one another, and to lay down His own life for others in a love that proved stronger than death. “There are three virtues that the world still needs – faith, hope and love. ‘And the greatest of these is love'. It is with these timeless truths in my mind, and my heart, that I wish you all a blessed and peaceful Easter.” Luxon met with the King for the first time at the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Samoa in October. The Prime Minister gave away little about what the pair discussed during that meeting, but said it was obvious King Charles had a “deep, deep affection for New Zealand” and was “very knowledgeable about a number of issues”. “It was a very natural conversation; it was just the two of us sitting outside and having a chat on a couple of seats.” This is Luxon's first visit to the UK as Prime Minister. He touched down late on Sunday night (NZT). Ahead of the trip, Luxon highlighted that trade was likely to be a key talking point. “New Zealand is a champion for free trade, and I look forward to talking to Sir Keir Starmer about what our countries can do together to support the rules-based trading system,” Luxon said. “The UK is one of NZ's closest and most trusted partners, and, for many Kiwis, it is where they base themselves on their OE. The UK is also important to NZ's prosperity. Our exports there grew by more than 20% in 2024 and are still growing.” Two-way trade with the UK, which NZ signed a free-trade agreement with in 2022, was worth $7.27 billion in the year ending December 2024, making it our seventh-largest trading partner.

Kia ora,Welcome to Tuesday'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 week started with a strong risk-on mood and equities rose on Monday in Asia, and especially in Europe. Wall Street opened with the same vibe, but lost momentum in the middle sessions, although it is returning in the later session. It's volatile.But first in main street US, the New York Fed's consumer expectations survey mirrored the other recent sentiment surveys, noting a defensive turn in the mood. Consumers' year-ahead expectations about their households' financial situations deteriorated in March, with the share of households expecting a worse financial situation one year from now rising to 30%, the highest level since October 2023. Those surveyed said they see higher inflation in a year, up to 3.6% from 3.0% in the February survey. The expectations for earnings growth fell, and for joblessness to rise. Of course, this one was taken before the heavy tariff policies hit in early April. The April update will be available on May 9 (NZT).In Washington, the Trump administration is moving swiftly to end enforcement of white collar crime, dismissing federal prosecutors involved in enforcing foreign bribery cases, crypto crime, and money laundering crime. Its open season for white collar criminals. Washington is also apparently open for far-right Russians.It is so risky to visit the US, EU diplomats are now being issued with burner phones for their visits, just like they do when visiting China or Russia.On the tariff front, exemptions are coming for car parts, new tariffs for pharmaceuticals. The common thread is bolstering profits for campaign supporters. Need a favour? Go to Washington with money for Trump.In Canada, their central bank is about to review its monetary policy settings. It was on a rate cutting track, but is now more likely to leave its policy rate unchanged given the inflationary threats from the trade war.In China, their exports surged by +12.4% in March to US$314 bln, far above market forecasts of +4.4% rose and accelerating sharply from a +2.3% rise in the January–February period. It marked the fastest increase in overseas sales since last October, driven by the urgent frontloading before the American tariffs took effect. Since November when talk of tariffs first became a credible risk, the rise of Chinese exports has been exceptional. Meanwhile, March imports fell -4.3%. As a consequence, China's merchandise trade surplus has hit record levels in 2025.We exported +13% more to them in Q1-2025 from a year ago, and imported -5% less. Australia exported -29% less, and imported -5% less, for comparison.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.37%, down -13 bps from this time yesterday. The price of gold will start today at just on US$3213/oz, and down -US$23 from yesterday.Oil prices have dipped -50 USc from yesterday to be now at US$61/bbl in the US and the international Brent price is now just under US$64.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at 58.8 USc, up +½c from yesterday at this time and the highest since mid-December. The fall of the USD extends. Against the Aussie we are up another +20 bps at 93 AUc. Against the euro we up +60 bps from yesterday at just on 51.9 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today now just on 67.3 and up +40 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$84,546 and holding, and down a mere -0.3% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at +/- 1.6%.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.

Kia ora,Welcome to Thursday'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 that past notions of safe havens have been upended, and now it is the turn of the bond market to be roiled. The cost of long-term money is rising sharply as risk premiums leap.First, China has reacted in equal measure to Trump's capricious 104% tariffs on their goods, with their own extras, a 50% retaliatory tariff. The predictions any junior could see from the known Smoot-Hawley tit-for-tat protectionism are playing out.The first to blink hasn't been the Chinese. Trump has made an about-turn and paused higher reciprocal tariffs "for 90 days" that hit dozens of trade partners just after they became effective, while raising duties on China further to 125%. This u-turn surprised markets which is having an emotional relief reaction. But any gains today will be built on sand.So we are in a period of unmoored 'policy', with all the impacts ahead of us. History tells us this doesn't end well, for anybody including us.American homeowners know what's coming, and are rushing to fix their mortgage rates before they rise unaffordably. There was a sharp +20% rise in mortgage applications last week from the week prior, with the refinance component up an eye-popping +35% and almost double the level of a year ago. Borrowers sense they may not see rates this low again for a long time.Meanwhile, at the other end of the interest rate market, US Treasury yields are leaping, which means prices are dropping and holders are taking large losses. Today's US Treasury 10 year bond auction was well supported but at notably higher yields. Today the median yield was 4.34% whereas at the prior equivalent event a month ago it was 4.27%. This is a market where participants have regulatory obligations to buy.But in the open secondary market, the effects are starker. The UST 10 year yield rose +16 bps just from yesterday. (from a month ago, up +11 bps). Volatility is a new feature of these bond markets too.There was some US wholesale inventory data out overnight, but it was for February, and these were up just +1.1% from a year ago. But of course this was from a period well before the April omnishambles.Also out today were the US Fed minutes from their March 20 (NZT) meeting, but the views in these have all been overtaken by subsequent events, so have little current relevance. But even back then they sensed threats to inflation from Washington's tariffs, with heightened concerns about stagflation.In Japan, machine tool orders jumped sharply in March driven by export orders. They were up +11.4% year-on-year for the sixth consecutive month. Domestic demand remained stableIn India, and as expected, their central bank cut its policy interest rate by -25 bps to 6.00%. They cited easing inflation, slowing economic output, and growing global trade tensions as the reasons why they cut for a second successive time.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.40%, up +16 bps from this time yesterday. Risk premiums are growing.Wall Street is currently up +7.4% on the S&P500 in its Wednesday trade as the tariff-pause relief rally kicks in. Who knows where it will end today. The price of gold will start today at just under US$3070/oz, and up +US$91 from yesterday. Perhaps this is one commodity exhibiting traditional safe-haven attributes.Oil prices have risen +US$2 from yesterday at just on US$62/bbl in the US and the international Brent price is now just on US$65/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at 56.2 USc, up +70 bps from yesterday at this time. Against the Aussie we are down -80 bps at 92.1 AUc. Against the euro we up +30 bps from yesterday at just on 51.1 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today now just on 65.8 and up +20 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$81,930 and rising, and up +6.1% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been very high at +/- 4.2%.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.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Opposition leader Peter Dutton are set to face off in the first election debate of the campaign. The debate is set to air on Sky News at 9:30pm (NZT) - and both leaders will be looking to boost up their campaigns and showcase their policies. 7 News political editor Mark Riley says opposition leaders stand to gain more from debates - and the pressure's on for Dutton. "Campaigns are all about momentum - and if you can get what you believe is a shift in momentum from a debate and then ride it into the campaign proper, it can have a material impact."

Kia ora,Welcome to Monday'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 we are now in a 'new world economy' and it will take some getting used to. The roll-out and consequences will develop over days, weeks, months, and years.The immediate past is irrelevant today. Tomorrow will be quite disconnected from the recent past.But first up, we have a busy week ahead. On Wednesday, the RBNZ will release the results of its OCR review, and a -25 bps cut is anticipated, taking it to 3.50%. It has been clearly signaled by the central bank, although we should note that much has happened to change the immediate economic outlook over the rest of 2025 and beyond.The Indian central bank will also review its policy rate, also on Wednesday, and a -25 bps cut is also anticipated there from the current 6.25%.Elsewhere both the US and China will release CPI and PPI inflation data. EU retail sales data and German industrial production data will also come this week.But nothing will be as influential as the tariff war hostilities, punch and counterpunch. Over the weekend China has responded to the US tariffs with its own sweeping restrictions on trade with the US, with more to come. In all, we count eight major announcements on restriction of trade with the US.China placed export restrictions on rare earth elements squeezing supply to the West of minerals. These materials are used in optical lasers, radar devices, high-powered magnets for wind turbines, jet engine coatings, communications and other advanced technologies. That leaves many manufacturers scrambling for fresh supplies of the critical minerals they have relied upon for decades.Late last week we reported that Canada retaliated. But so far, we haven't heard of EU retaliation, although they are huddling to plan a united response. (And oddly, no US tariffs were applied to Cuba, Iran, North Korea or Russia - even though the US runs a large -US$4 bln trade deficit with Russia.)Fed boss Powell was speaking over the weekend and he said the economic impact of new tariffs is likely to be significantly larger than expected, and the central bank must make sure that doesn't lead to a growing inflation problem. "The same is likely to be true of the economic effects, which will include higher inflation and slower growth."All this will have very large secondary effects on New Zealand, and our currency dived sharply on the news at the end of last week. It was an even larger negative reaction for Australia.Commodity prices have taken outsized hits, all consistent with pricing for a deep recession. Copper is down -16.5% since its late-March peak. It is far from the only one, and the adjusting is still underway. Gold wasn't immune. Nickel, zinc, and aluminium are all also down sharply. So far, food prices haven't really moved much, and the FAO report for March confirmed that.Those secondary reactions will be widespread however. The airfreight market is expected to be thrown into turmoil, up in the immediate scramble to get ordered goods, then a deep drought, as it will be for shipping. Collapses will further hinder the reduced trade expected.The key takeaway from all this is unsettling - this isn't the bottom. It may only be the start of a steep decline. It certainly is a 'Black Swan' event. That tariffs were coming, no surprise. But the size and comprehensiveness were very much larger than anyone, friend or foe, expected. Everyone should be worried, especially savers. Stagflation is the most likely future we face.For the record, there was economic data out over the weekend. The US non-farm March payrolls came in better than anticipated with a +228,000 seasonally adjusted rise in the month. The monthly average gain in 2025 is now the lowest since the 2020 year (and also lower than any year 2016-2019.) Canada reported a -33,000 drop in March employment. Deeper rate cuts are the likely Bank of Canada response, and soon - on April 17, NZT.And across the Pacific, Japanese household income rose more than expected in February from the steep drop in January. But it wasn't enough to show a gain year-on-year.German factory orders remained low in February, and unchanged from January in an under-shoot.But none of this recent-history data really means much anymore.The following changes are outsized, and still moving. But this is what we see now.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.00%, down -25 bps from a week ago. The VIX volatility index has jumped suddenly, moving up towards an extreme level.Wall Street fell hard in its Friday trade with the S&P500 down -6.0% on the day and the Nasdaq was down -5.8%. The S&P500 futures trade suggests a small part of that (maybe +0.7%) could be recovered when Monday trade resumes.The price of gold will start today at just on US$3037/oz, up +US$17 from Saturday but down a net -US$71 from Friday, a huge move as gold is just being classed as "another commodity". Also, even before the latest tariff chaos, the Germans were worried about a Trump America, and talking about relocating its gold reserves out of New York. Those voices are louder now.Oil prices have dropped another huge -US$4.50 from Friday at just on US$62/bbl in the US and the international Brent price is now just on US$65.50/bbl. This market faces steep demand drops just as it wants to increase production.The Kiwi dollar is now at 55.9 USc, up +30 bps from Saturday but an enormous -220 bps dump from this time Friday, down -4.3%. Against the Aussie we are down -10 bps at 92.5 AUc and the Aussie dollar took an even larger hit on Friday. Against the euro we up +20 bps but down -150 bps from Friday at just under 51.1 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today now just on 65.8 and down -120 bps from Friday to its lowest since the brief pandemic dive on March 20, 2020, and before that in March 2011 as the GFC bit hard..The bitcoin price starts today at US$81,097 and down -3.2% from this time Saturday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at +/- 1.5%.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.

Trump's tariffs are coming tomorrow - and he's basically playing God with the global economy. I've found the stuff we should know: The presser is 4pm Eastern time in the Rose Garden at the White House. That's 9am NZT. The reason it's late over there is because they want markets closed when he announces it. This is big league stuff. This guy has the power to make or break countries, markets and entire industries. Here's some stats: Goldman Sachs' odds on a US recession are up from 20 percent to 35 percent. Moody's reckons it could cost 5.5 million jobs - that would lift the unemployment rate from 4 percent to 7 percent. GDP would fall 1.7 percent from peak to trough. For context, that's the equivalent of 2/3rds of the growth our economy is expecting this year. Reciprocal tariffs are broad-based tariffs across all countries. The White House has been tight-lipped on carve-outs or exemptions, but some countries are hammering the phones begging for them. They're panicked on Downing Street - though Starmer says he's staying calm and they're working the phones. Talk of getting an economic deal has turned into just that - they now say they're likely to be hit like everyone else. India - they've been on the phones. They're notorious for trade protectionism, so it's a bit rich from them but their share market's been feeling the heat. Vonderlayen's readying the war chest. The EU will fight back. Britain won't. Neither will Vietnam. Neither will New Zealand. Luxon's message today was keep calm and carry on. Agriculture, as we've been talking about since the minute Trump tweeted about it, is on the cards. The US overtook the Aussies this year as out second largest export market for goods, thanks to red meat. That could hurt. But applied equally to Argentinian and Aussie beef, perhaps not so much. It all depends on the number. 10 percent is fine. 25 percent is a bigger problem. The real threat is the word's biggest economy going into recession - and the flow-on effects. The smart money's already been piling into gold and European stocks. Tomorrow we find out what 'America First' really means for the rest of us.

Burning Bright and Chris Paul crack open Limitless and its eerie parallels to modern life, from brain-boosting nootropics and AI overreach to the deep state's obsession with control. They explore the film's Faustian bargain as a metaphor for everything from Adderall addiction to the seduction of algorithmic power. With sharp insight, they connect the dots between NZT and adrenochrome rumors, government psyops, psychological warfare, and the terrifying potential of artificial intelligence. From decalcified pineal glands to the illusion of knowing “the news,” this episode dives deep into how truth, control, and temptation collide in the information war.
