Recording date: 16th February 2026Gold mining companies are generating unprecedented levels of free cash flow, with major producers like Agnico Eagle reporting more than $11 million per day in Q4 2024 at an average realized gold price near $4,200 per ounce. With gold prices running approximately $800 per ounce higher in the current quarter, that figure is tracking toward $15 million or more per day - a level that is fundamentally reshaping how companies think about capital allocation.Speaking on the Compass podcast, Samuel Pelaez and Derek Macpherson of Olive Resource Capital argued that this cash flow environment gives producers the rare ability to pursue multiple priorities simultaneously: debt reduction, dividend increases, share buybacks, and acquisitions. That flexibility, they noted, sets the current cycle apart from previous periods in the sector.The discussion comes as the mining industry enters its most active conference season of the year. An institutional-focused gathering in Miami is followed shortly by PDAC in Toronto - the world's largest mining conference - beginning around March 1st. Both events are expected to accelerate M&A discussions, as corporate development teams from major miners hold direct meetings with junior company management. Pelaez and Macpherson suggested that transaction announcements could coincide with or immediately follow PDAC.In the near term, Chinese New Year - which began February 17th - introduces a period of thin liquidity across commodity markets as Chinese exchanges close for the week. The hosts characterized any resulting price volatility as mechanical rather than fundamental, and suggested investors treat sell-offs in stocks they already favor as potential entry points.On the macro side, four factors continue to underpin the commodity bull market: expanding US manufacturing PMIs, resilient employment data, continued global liquidity growth, and a US fiscal deficit of approximately $800 billion - the third largest on record - reinforcing the case for hard assets even as the economy grows.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

US equity futures are pointing sharply lower to start the week, with Asian markets broadly higher and European equities trading a weaker open. Markets are reacting to Friday's Supreme Court ruling striking down the IEEPA tariffs, followed immediately by President Trump announcing a new global tariff rate of 10%, later raised to 15% under a different authority. The move has injected fresh uncertainty into the trade landscape, with expectations that the administration will pursue additional trade investigations to restore its effective tariff rate. Questions also remain around potential tariff refunds after the court offered no clear guidance. The ruling and subsequent policy shift come against a backdrop of mixed macro data, including softer flash PMIs, hotter-than-expected core PCE, and below-consensus fourth-quarter GDP. Fed commentary leaned hawkish, with officials highlighting upside inflation risks and signaling that further tightening could return to the table if price pressures reaccelerate. Geopolitical tensions remain elevated amid discussions of a potential limited US strike on Iran, though risk assets had largely shrugged off the headlines late last week.Companies Mentioned: Netflix, TPG, KKR, Fortune Brands Innovations

Michael Reinking, NYSE Senior Market Strategist, recaps a volatile holiday‑shortened week marked by easing inflation and shifting market tone. Softer CPI readings pushed yields to multi‑month lows, while the S&P 500 churned between key moving averages amid options‑driven swings. AI‑related selling showed early signs of thawing, even as geopolitical tensions—especially around Iran—kept oil prices elevated. Economic data remained resilient, highlighted by strong capital goods orders and lower jobless claims. With GDP, PMIs, and major tech earnings on deck, investors head into next week cautiously optimistic but alert to global risks.

The year is starting with solid global momentum. Fading caution, firming in employment, signs of a broadening in non-tech related capex are prompting a bounce in industry—underscored by this week's strong February flash PMIs. While the SCOTUS overturning of US IEEPA tariffs lays down some guardrails, we do not see it materially altering the US war on trade in aggregate. Resilient growth combined with elevated inflation make market pricing for Fed cuts in 2H26 increasingly untenable.   Speakers: Bruce Kasman Joseph Lupton   This podcast was recorded on 20 February 2026.

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, o PIB do quarto trimestre dos EUA mostrou crescimento abaixo do esperado, com impacto negativo dos gastos do governo, mas o restante da composição melhor. Foi divulgada a minuta da última reunião do Fed, demonstrando que os membros enxergam também possibilidade de aumento de juros. Na Europa, os PMIs melhoraram marginalmente, com destaque para a recuperação da Alemanha, em serviços e manufaturas. A semana também foi marcada pela decisão da Suprema Corte nos EUA derrubando tarifas impostas sob medidas emergenciais, seguida do anúncio de novas tarifas globais temporárias de 10% por parte de Trump, o que, por ora, reduz a tarifa efetiva frente ao cenário anterior. Houve forte noticiário ligado às negociações entre EUA e Irã, com aumento do receio de ataque americano. No Brasil, o noticiário político ganhou destaque com repercussões do Carnaval, após homenagem ao presidente Lula gerar críticas e impacto negativo em indicadores de popularidade. No campo institucional, o STF voltou ao centro do debate com desenvolvimentos ligados ao Banco Master. Nos EUA, o juro de 1 ano abriu 8 bps, e as bolsas tiveram bom desempenho – S&P 500 +1,07%, Nasdaq +1,13% e Russell 2000 +0,55%. No Brasil, os juros fecharam marginalmente (jan/29 -9 bps), o Ibovespa valorizou 2,17% e, o real, 0,92%. Na próxima semana, destaque para IPCA-15, Caged e pesquisa eleitoral no Brasil. Nos EUA, atenção à comunicação de membros do Fed.

Brian Szytel from Dividend Cafe provides a broad market update with all three major stock indices higher (Nasdaq up about 0.75%, S&P 500 up about 0.5%, and Dow up about 0.25%) while interest rates rose slightly, with the 10-year yield up three basis points. He reviews several economic releases, including January FOMC minutes that conveyed a more hawkish tone as inflation was described as slower to return to the 2% target, January industrial production that beat expectations (0.7% vs. 0.4%), and December durable goods orders that fell 1.4% but were better than consensus, with underlying measures stronger (excluding transportation up 0.9%, and core capital goods orders excluding defense and aircraft up about 0.67%, roughly double expectations). He notes housing starts and building permits were slightly better than expected but characterizes housing as still stuck due to interest rates, tax law changes, and reduced post-COVID mobility. 00:00 Market Snapshot: Stocks Up, Yields Higher 00:35 Key Economic Releases: Fed Minutes, Production & Durable Goods 01:41 Why Durable Goods Matter: Business Confidence & Capex Signals 02:40 Housing Starts & Permits: Still Stuck in a Range 03:10 Tariffs and GDP Explained: Net Exports, Double-Counting, and Reality 04:47 What's Next This Week: PCE, GDP, PMIs & Consumer Sentiment 05:12 Wrap-Up: Broadly Positive Day + Q&A Invitation Links mentioned in this episode: DividendCafe.com TheBahnsenGroup.com

Santiago de la Torriente, institutional sales de Bellevue Asset Management, analiza cómo fue el 2025 para las empresas de renta variable europeas y cuál fue su rendimiento. ¿Está habiendo una gran rotación dentro de los mercados bursátiles? “La rotación es fruto de unas cadenas de suministro que se están saneando”, afirma el invitado. También añade que se ha dado gracias a “unos planes de expansión de Europa, donde el tejido empresarial europeo lo va a absorber”. ¿Cuáles han sido otros factores fundamentales? El invitado señala que algunos de ellos son “la recuperación de los PMIs” y “el hecho de que la política económica europea, con los tipos a la baja, son un entorno favorable a estas empresas”. El entrevistado analiza las bolsas europeas y como estas les han ido recortando terreno. “El año pasado el dólar hizo estragos en las carteras de los clientes europeos”, afirma el invitado. También destaca que “aunque el S&P hiciese una rentabilidad similar a las compañías europeas, si les quita el 10-11% del dólar, te quedan rendimientos menores”. ¿Cómo influyó esto a los inversores europeos? El experto explica que “este es un factor fundamental por parte los europeos para darse cuenta de que tienen que tener un menor riesgo por la parte de divisas, porque hacen daño”. ¿Los inversores han conseguido valoraciones atractivas o estas empiezan a ser exigentes? El institutional sales de Bellevue Asset Management aclara que “las presentaciones de resultados están siendo buenas, las compañías están creciendo y a pesar de que las acciones hayan tenido un buen comportamiento, esas valoraciones siguen siendo atractivas”. ¿Por qué las pequeñas compañías europeas tienen estas valoraciones más bajas? Santiago de la Torriente explica que “a nivel de deuda están en línea con la media” y que “los márgenes no han hecho más que ampliarse en los últimos cinco años”.

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.Today we lead with news commodity prices are still falling after last week's crazy surge. The retreats are widespread and substantial. Oddly, it isn't having much effect on commodity-based currencies however.But first today, the January factory PMIs for the US were positive, based on good new order growth. The closely-watched local ISM version expanded for the first time in 12 months, preceded by 26 straight months of contraction. Prices rose sharply for both inputs and outputs, and some buying appears to be to get ahead of expected price increases due to ongoing tariff issues, they said.Meanwhile the S&P Global factory PMI came in with similar trends, finding rises in production when sales growth was subdued. These two surveys are positive, but we should remember that January is "reorder month" and with the tariff threats lingering, it might mean this distortion is playing an outsized role.In China, their PMI's trends were not too different from the US, even if they were in contrast to their official version. They reported an expansion in production at a faster pace amid higher new orders. Employment rose Output charges increased for the first time in 14 months.In Taiwan, their factory sector recovery gathered pace in January, but cost pressures intensified.In Singapore and Malaysia, they recorded a January uptick, but the expansions there are still modest in their factory sectors.India and the US announced an agreement to lower tariffs and lower the temperature in their trade disputes. Given that India's exports to the US were already rising even with the higher tariff's, this is likely to be a substantial boost for India.Back in the US, and under the radar, they have entered a new federal government shutdown, with layoffs. This one is expected to be short because a deal between Congress and the White House seems to be in effect. But it will delay this weekend's non-farm payrolls report announcement.In Australia, Cotality said low supply levels, first home buyer incentives and a resilient labour market are combining to keep house prices rising. They are up +9.4% nationally from a year ago. But there is wide variation. They said mounting affordability and debt headwinds are butting up against 'fragile sentiment'. This is especially true where the prices are highest, in Sydney and Melbourne, where prices rose only +6.4% and +5.4% in January from a year ago, the least of any major city. The median house price in Sydney is now AU$1.29 mln (NZ$1,5 mln). It is now also above AU$1 mln in Brisbane at AU$1.055 mln (NZ$1.22 mln).The UST 10yr yield is now just on 4.27%, up +3 bps from this time yesterday.The price of gold will start today down -US$183 from yesterday at US$4707/oz. Silver is down -US$6 to US$US$78.50/oz. Non-precious metals are falling hard too.American oil prices are down -US$3 at just underer US$62/bbl, while the international Brent price is now just on US$66/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is down -20 bps against the USD from yesterday, now at 60.1 USc. Against the Aussie we are also down -20 bps at 86.3 AUc. Against the euro we are up +10 bps at just on 50.9 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today just under 63.8, and down -10 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$78,946 and recovering +2.0% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been high at just on +/- 3.0% with all the fall coming yesterday.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston and we'll do this again tomorrow.

Neste episódio do Dedo no Pulso, referente à semana de 2 a 8 de fevereiro de 2026, o programa analisa uma agenda intensa de indicadores no Brasil e no exterior. No Brasil, destaque para o IGP-DI em deflação, IPCA da Fipe, balança comercial e produção industrial, que segue em desaceleração com expectativa de resultado negativo no primeiro trimestre. O Copom manteve a Selic em 15%, mas sinalizou início de flexibilização já em março, apontando maior confiança na queda da inflação e expectativas mais bem ancoradas. Nos Estados Unidos, foco no mercado de trabalho com Payroll, taxa de desemprego e pedidos de seguro-desemprego, além da decisão do Fed de manter juros. O episódio comenta também a indicação de Kevin Warsh para substituir Jerome Powell como chairman. Na Europa, saíram dados de varejo, IPP e PMIs. No Brasil, os números fiscais revelaram deterioração: dívida bruta em 78,7% do PIB, déficit primário de R$ 55 bilhões e pagamento recorde de R$ 1 trilhão em juros em 2025, equivalente a 7,9% do PIB. O episódio conclui com alerta sobre os impactos da política fiscal irresponsável, a pressão sobre juros e os riscos para o crescimento econômico, além da preocupação com a inadimplência no setor agro.

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.Today we lead with news commodity and financial markets delivered some rather spectacular gyrations over the weekend, forcing investors to review how they are going to deal with the 'certainty of uncertainty' enveloping global markets.But first this week, our local coverage will be dominated by Wednesday's Q4-2025 labour market report. If it brings a notable improvement from the expected no-change 5.3% jobless rate, then the recent high inflation rate (3.1%) will get more of the RBNZ's attention at its February 18 meeting.Also this week, the RBA is meeting tomorrow to review Australia's monetary policy settings. A +25 bps change is now expected taking this rate to 3.85%, a sharp adjustment in sentiment following the strong December CPI data (3.8%).Elsewhere, important labour market data will come from the US at the end of the week via their January non-farm payrolls report. Markets expect a modest +70,000 job gain there, slightly better than the disappointing December +50,000 rise. Before that, there will be their JOLTs report, the ADP jobs report, and the layoff data for January. Then we get the first February consumer sentiment report, and it is expected to stay near its historic lows.There will be many more PMIs reported this week. And the EU will release its CPI data update, the ECB will review its policy rate. India will too. As will England.In Japan, they will release business sentiment survey results.But the week has already started in China, with dour official PMI survey results released. Their factory sector slipped back into contraction indicating their December expansion was a rogue result. Their services PMI also reverted to contraction as well, and they will be very disappointed. Neither was expected to reverse in January. The non-official PMIs will be released later today.Also over the weekend, Taiwan said its economy expanded at more than a +12% rate in Q4-2025 in a spectacular release, and their best quarter ever. That means all of 2025 was up +8.6%, even better than the outstanding 2025 gain of +5.3%. No wonder Beijing covets the neighbouring island nation.In Japan, they reported that its retail sales unexpectedly fell in December, although it did revise up its November retail sales results.In South Korea, the pandemic recovery excepted, their exports rose at a record +34% year-on-year rate in January to a massive US$66 bln. This is largely as a result of booming tech exports to China and the US. And it sets up 2026 with a great start, after 2025 exports also hit all-time records.Indian bank loan growth is still rising very fast indeed, up more than +13% year on year in its January 9, 2025 data released over the weekendIn the US, Trump said he will appoint Kevin Warsh from the conservative Hoover Institute and member of the billionaire Este Lauder family, to replace Powell when Powell's term ends in May 2026. The choice seemed to trigger the precious metals selloff. Trump once thought of appointing Warsh in 2017 but pulled back on doubts he would be compliant. Since then Warsh has become more MAGA.US producer prices rose +3.0% in December from the same month a year ago, defying expectations they would fall to +2.7%. Core data was up +3.3%, the fastest rise since July.Meanwhile in Chicago, the region's PMI made a spectacular recovery, one quite unexpected. New orders rose in this survey, employment surged. It is in complete contrast to the prior 25 consecutive months of decline. (However it will be worth waiting a month to know if this isn't just a rogue survey, one they have every two years or so. The last such unusual surge in November 2023 wasn't sustained.)In Europe, Eurozone economic activity rose +1.5% in 2025, up +1.6% in the wider EU, up from +0.9% in 2024 and better than the European Commission's projection of +1.3%. Resilient household consumption, lower borrowing costs and easing inflation, and a surge in exports to the US, all contributed to the better result. Germany and Italy were laggards, France about average, and Spain expanded at double the overall average.The UST 10yr yield is now just on 4.24%, unchanged from this time Saturday, down -2 bps for the weekThe price of gold will start today little-changed from Saturday at US$4888/oz when the big crash happened. Silver is down to US$US$84.50/oz.American oil prices are up +50 USc at just over US$65/bbl, while the international Brent price is now just under US$69/bbl. From a week ago these prices are up +US$3.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is down -10 bps against the USD from Saturday, now at 60.3 USc. That is a weekly appreciation of +100 bps. From the start of the month it is up +300 bps. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 86.5 AUc. Against the euro we are also unchanged at just over 50.8 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today just on 63.9, and down -10 bps from Saturday, up +80 bps for the week, up +200 bps for the month, almost all because the USD devaluation in global markets.The bitcoin price starts today at US$77,404 and down a very sharp -6.8% from this time Saturday. That makes it down -18% for the week. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest however at just on +/- 0.8% with all the fall coming Saturday.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora.

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.Today we lead with news repricing for American risk is underway, evidenced by rising UST yields, a falling US dollar, and commodity price spikes.First up today, American durable goods orders rose in November by more than expected to be +10.5% higher than year ago levels, a gain that has impressed markets, and came as a complete surprise. Non-defense capital goods orders, excluding aircraft, were up +4.3%, also a good gain.But there are a number of factors we should take into account when assessing this data. It is 'nominal' and not inflation adjusted and tariff-taxes will be a part of the increase. Second, we looked back at the ISM and S&P Global factory PMIs for November and they did not pick up this type of gain. The ISM one actually reported contraction, the S&P Global and unchanged expansion. And then there is the 'new management' at the US data agency that releases this data. All three factors mean we should wait a bit to see if this is an outlier result. Risks abound.Meanwhile, the Chicago Fed's National Activity Index came in below trend in November, although not as negative as it was in October. This is the ninth below-trend reading in the past twelve months.It was a similar story for the Dallas Fed factory survey, which also recorded a pullback, for January, although not as steeply as it did in December. Output and new orders rose, but the overall index was held back by a sharp jump in prices paid for inputs. Only about half that was recovered by prices received even though that rose sharply too.There was a US Treasury bond auction today and while it was well supported, it did bring a notable rise in the yield achieved. The 2 year bond delivered a yield of 3.55% at todays event, up from 3.45% at the prior equivalent event a month ago. This is the largest shift in yields we have observed at these events in more than a year. The US's ballooning deficit can't really afford rising interest rates, but then again it couldn't afford the tax cuts for the rich either.Singapore's industrial production dipped rather sharply in December to end up +8.3% from the same month a year ago. But the December pullback was less than observers had expected.In addition to Auckland, and Australia, Monday was also a public holiday in India, Republic day. And the two top EU officials were in New Delhi to seal a key trade deal between the two economic powers. In fact, it has been called "the mother of all deals" and is set to be signed later today. Both sides are making major concessions to get it done and it is likely to boost trade in a globally significant way. The EU will get major access to India's car market. India will get the EU's preferential tariff MFN treatment.The UST 10yr yield is now just on 4.21%, down -3 bps from this time yesterday.The price of gold will start today at US$5087/oz, up +US$104 from yesterday and a new record again. Silver is up proportionately more, up +US$12/oz at US$115/oz and also a record high. Platinum has risen to US$2857/oz, up +US$116/oz.Tin prices are up +9.5% today, and copper is up +1.5%. Both build on recent surges to record highs. A falling greenback accentuates these rises, but all commodities are still priced in USD.American oil prices are holding at yesterday's at just under US$61/bbl, while the international Brent price is firmish, now just under US$65.50/bbl and down -50 USc.The Kiwi dollar is up +30 bps from yesterday, now at 59.7 USc. Against the Aussie we are up +10 bps at 86.4 AUc. Against the euro we are also up +10 bps at just on 50.4 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today just under 63.5, and up +40 bps from yesterday, its highest since late September.The bitcoin price starts today at US$87,677 and down just -0.3% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just under +/- 1.4%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora.

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.Today we lead with news we need to keep an eye on the 'Sell America' trade, which until now has been more headlines that substance and mainly about China's divestment in US Treasuries. But the Greenland kerfuffle has triggered a serious rethink by many pension fund managers, and more are taking this action.But first, the week ahead will be a relatively quiet one locally on the data front, but we will get a big range of December banking sector data, allowing us to cap the 2025 year on a number of important metrics. In Australia, the key event will be Wednesday's CPI data where it is expected to rise to 3.6%, the final indicator before next week's RBA rate review.Globally, all eyes will be on the gold price and its expected push up through US$5000/oz which could come early in the week.And in the US, all eyes will be on the Fed and its January 29 meeting, amid increasingly contrasting takes by voting members on the appropriate rate path. But most things related to public policy are in turmoil in the US, and the Fed's position is just part of that. We will be watching for bond market reactions.Elsewhere, official interest rate decisions are expected in Canada, Brazil, and Sweden, and the Bank of Japan will publish meeting minutes.An don't forget it is a holiday today in the north of the North Island (Auckland Anniversary Day), and in Australia (Australia Day),In the first news up today, China released its December FDI data overnight and it was negative again. For all of 2025 foreign direct investment fell -9.5%, following a sharp -24.7% fall in 2024 and that makes it the third consecutive year of contraction. December alone recorded a good pickup from November but even with that it was -7% lower than the December 2024 month. But at least it didn't shrink as it did in November from October.China also release minimum wage rate data that showed 27 of the country's 31 provincial jurisdictions have increased monthly minimum wages over the past year, with half introducing double-digit rises.In an interview with state media Xinhua, the Chinese central bank governor indicated that cuts to their interest rates and reserve ratio requirements are on the cards in 2026.Taiwan said industrial production surged more than +21% in December from the same month a year ago, the strongest growth since May. For all of 2025 it was up +16.7%, so the latest activity is an acceleration. But their local retail sector is not showing the same exuberance, up just +0.9% in December from a year ago but down -0.2% for all of 2025. Consumers there are prioritising saving over spending, just like in the country to their west.Japanese inflation eased to 2.1% in December from 2.9% in November, the lowest since March 2022. Food inflation fell to a 13-month low of +5.1%, driven by the slowest rise in rice prices in 16 months.The Japanese January 'flash' PMIs were quite positive with private sector output expanding at their quickest rate for nearly a year-and-a-half to start 2026.The Japanese central bank reviewed its monetary policy and no change was made, held at 0.75% - because an election is imminent. But now inflation concerns seem to be easing too. But markets are on alert for official intervention to support the yen.In India, their 'flash' January PMIs rose across both sectors, maintaining the very high rates of economic expansion there.We are starting to get the early January PMI reports for many key economies. The US factory version was little-changed in a modest expansion and it was the same for their services sector. But both recorded slightly better new order flows. Both noted cost pressures from their tariff-taxes. But as you will note from below this expansion lags most of the other large global economies.The Conference Board's leading economic indicator tracking for the US isn't positive reading, with the latest update reporting further declines.In Canada, their retail sector reported good gains in November, up +3.1% from a year ago, but these may not have extended into December, according to their overnight update.In the EU, output continues to rise in January and business confidence strengthened. That raised their factory PMIs to expansion, but their services PMI's hesitated.In Australia this week, they posted stronger than expected labour market data. That has sharply changed financial market pricing. And in turn there has been a rush by banks, both a major (NAB) and some challengers, to hike their fixed home loan rates today. They get their December CPI result next week and it is widely expected to challenge the upper end of their policy tolerance. If it does, suddenly Australian floating mortgage rates are at risk of a rise on February 3, 2026. If they do hike then, the Aussie policy rate will be 3.85% (3.60% +25 bps). And that will put it 160 bps higher than the RBNZ current 2.25%. It has been 14 years since this difference was that large.In Australia, private sector output expanded at its fastest pace in five months in December according to the S&P Global 'flash' PMI report. Both the factory and services sector expansions picked up, the services sector more than the factory sector however. Faster new order growth, including for exports, was a noted feature.And we should probably note that China received its first shipment of iron ore from their giant African mine at Simandou, Guinea. This likely marks a shift in China's iron ore import focus, likely to Australia's detriment.The UST 10yr yield is now just on 4.24%, down -2 bps from this time Saturday. And here is something to keep an eye on, Europe's largest pension fund cut its holdings of US Treasury debt sharply in 2025, a trend that seems to be gathering steam, the 'sell America' trade, one started by Norway's sovereign wealth fund late last year.The price of gold will start today at US$4983/oz, up a minor +US$1 from Saturday bit still a new record again. US$5000 could come quickly now. Silver is up +US$2/oz at US$103/oz and also a record high. Platinum ihas eased marginally to US$2741/oz.American oil prices are holding at Saturday's at just on US$61/bbl, while the international Brent price is firmish, now just under US$66/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is little-changed from Saturday, still at about 59.4 USc. That makes it almost a -2c loss for the greenback for the week. Against the Aussie we are up +10 bps at 86.3 AUc. Against the euro we are down -10 bps at just on 50.3 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today just under 63.1, and up +10 bps from Saturday, its highest since late September, and up +150 bps for the week.And we should probably note that the official Chinese yuan setting by the Peoples Bank of China slipped below 7 to the US dollar in Saturday's fixing, the first time it has done that since May 2023. Although to be fair, most currencies are rising against the USD, ours included.The bitcoin price starts today at US$87,968 and down -2.0% from this time Saturday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just under +/- 1.0%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora.

Nossos sócios Luiz Eduardo Portella e Sarah Campos debatem, no episódio de hoje, os principais acontecimentos da semana no Brasil e no mundo.⁠ ⁠ No cenário internacional, ocorreu o Fórum Econômico Mundial de Davos, onde Trump amenizou o tom adotado até então, afirmando que não enviaria tropas para a Groenlândia e que não imporá tarifas sobre a Europa. No Japão, a primeira-ministra defendeu a redução temporária de impostos sobre o consumo de alimentos, medida com impacto fiscal e anunciada às vésperas das eleições, que foram confirmadas para o início de fevereiro após a dissolução do Parlamento. O Banco Central do Japão manteve a taxa de juros inalterada e reforçou a estratégia de gradualidade, com ajustes condicionados ao cenário econômico e de preços. Na Europa, os PMIs vieram mistos – de maneira agregada demonstrando estabilidade.⁠ ⁠ No Brasil, o foco foi para o noticiário político: o governador Tarcísio de Freitas cancelou a visita a Jair Bolsonaro, e seguiu negando intenção de candidatura presidencial. As pesquisas eleitorais foram positivas para Flávio Bolsonaro, com aumento de intenção de votos em cenários de segundo turno. Também houve destaque para as notícias envolvendo o Banco Master, incluindo possível ligação ao ministro Dias Toffoli, podendo levar o caso novamente para a primeira instância. ⁠ Nos EUA, os juros ficaram praticamente estáveis, e as bolsas tiveram desempenho misto – S&P 500 -0,35%, Nasdaq +0,30% e Russell -0,32%. No Brasil, o jan/29 fechou 19 bps, o Ibovespa subiu 8,53% e o real valorizou 1,62%. O ouro subiu mais 8,38% e o petróleo subiu 3,08%. ⁠ Na próxima semana, destaque para as decisões do Fed e do Copom e, também por aqui, IPCA-15 e dados de mercado de trabalho. ⁠

Análise semanal de mercado e os impactos no mundo RPPS, com destaques:No Exterior: Tensões geopolíticas, Payroll, ADP, Jolts e PMIs ditaram o rumo dos negócios.No Brasil: Panorama global e IPCA foram os destaques da semana.

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.Today we start with news the fall of the USD is driving some renewed realignments.To start we should note that gold has surpassed US Treasuries as the world's largest reserve asset globally for the first time in 30 years driven primarily by sharply rising prices, and some aggressive buying by some (mainly autocrat) central banks.Elsewhere in the real economy, the private US ADP employment report for December rose by +41,000 jobs following a revised -29,000 retreat in November. The December result was slightly less than forecasts of a +47,000 gain. This huge sample has been in a yo-yo pattern since mid-2025 and over that six month period they have reported a net gain of +129,000 - but almost all that gain was in August. We get the December non-farm payrolls report on Saturday, and it is expected to show a gain of +60,000.US job opening shrank in November. They fell by -303,000 to 7.146 mln in the month, the lowest since September 2024 and well below market expectations of a good gain.The ISM Services PMI rose for a third consecutive month in December, well above what was expected due to more positive holiday season trading. It was their best services sector PMI since October 2024, and broad-based. This was quite a different view to yesterday's S&P Global services PMI which told the inverse story.Meanwhile the US released catch-up factory order data, delayed by their shutdown, and a desire to make bad data seem less relevant. This report for October revealed orders fell +1.3% from September, to be just +1.6% higher than a year ago, far less than current price inflation. A driver of this pullback has been lower aircraft orders.Meanwhile, the NY Fed's global supply chain pressure index jumped rather more than expected in December, a clear signal that American importers are feeling rising stress - although nothing like its pandemic stress.In Canada, their widely-watched Ivey PMI turned back to an expansion in December, and they reported lower cost pressures, even if they remain elevated.In China, their central bank said it will cut the reserve requirement ratio and interest rates in 2026 to keep liquidity up with a loose monetary policy.Meanwhile their foreign exchange agency explicitly committed to “effectively guaranteeing” fx access for all market players, a move to reassure businesses of currency liquidity amid the global pressures.And China's FX reserves rose to US$3.358 tln in December, a +4.9% or +US$160 bln change from a year ago, boosted in part by a falling USD. But next week, China will announce a +US$1 tln trade surplus in the same period, so it does make you wonder where the difference has gone. Clearly there are large capital outflows. China's gold reserves rose more than +55% in 2025, largely due to the rise in price. But they also added volume from local mining.Another consequence of this rise in reserves and the swelling trade surplus, is that the yuan is appreciating, especially against the USD (but not significantly against the AUD or NZD). However the appreciation against the USD is crucial because most of the world's trade in conducted or priced in USD.Taiwan said its CPI rose +1.3% in December from a year ago, and its PPI fell -2.6% on the same basis.In Europe, they said their CPI was up +2.0% in the euro area in December, a slight dip from November. So it is at the ECB target now. The range was from +0.7% in France to over +3.0% in front-line eastern countries. Germany was +2.0%, Spain +3.0% and Italy +1.2%.Australia's CPI inflation slowed to 3.4% in November from a year ago, down from 3.8% in October. This was a bigger fall than expected, but it is still above the RBA's 2–3% target. Still, this will ease the pressure on the RBA and push back any thought of rate rises. Housing was up 5.2%, food by 3.3%, and transport by +2.7%. As the electricity subsidy rollback fades, that is reducing pressure overall.Australian building consents rose sharply in November, up +15.2% to 18,406, a rise dominated by apartment approvals.And while we complain about high prices for dairy products and meat because of our low dollar and high international demand, get ready for much higher fish prices too. The West Australian government has permanently closed it's snapper fishery, and fish wholesalers there are now flying in New Zealand snapper to fill the shortage.The UST 10yr yield is now just under 4.14%, down -4 bps from this time yesterday. The key 2-10 yield curve is now at +67 bps.The price of gold will start today at US$4458/oz, and down -US$29 from yesterday. Silver is down -US$4 to US$78/oz.American oil prices are down -US$1.50 USc from yesterday at just under US$56/bbl, while the international Brent price is now at just under US$60/bbl. These are both near five year lows.The Kiwi dollar is little-changed from yesterday, still at just over 57.8 USc. Against the Aussie we are up +10 bps at 85.9 AUc. Against the euro we are also up +10 bps at 49.5 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today just over 61.8, and actually little-changed yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$91,276 and down -1.3% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has again been modest at just on +/- 1.4%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora.

En el episodio de hoy de VG Daily, Andre Dos Santos y Eugenio Garibay exploran el caso de Costco, que decidió llevar al gobierno a los tribunales para recuperar los aranceles que ha pagado en los últimos años, una disputa que abre preguntas más amplias sobre la legalidad, el costo y el impacto de la política comercial actual. A partir de ahí, analizan cómo estos aranceles se han convertido en una fuente creciente de ingresos para el gobierno federal y qué tan relevante es ya esta recaudación frente a otras fuentes tradicionales como los impuestos a individuos y corporaciones. Y para cerrar, aterrizan todo en la actividad económica del día a día con una lectura de los PMIs y los indicadores de manufactura, que muestran una economía enviando señales mixtas entre expansión moderada y sectores que siguen bajo presión. Una conversación para entender cómo decisiones fiscales y comerciales se traducen en realidades económicas más amplias.

In this week's Macro Mondays, Lisa Aziz joins James Brodie and James Todd to break down the key macro trends driving global markets. With US labour data showing early signs of strain, unemployment rising, and consumer confidence sinking to its lowest levels since 2022, recession risk is moving sharply higher.AI-linked equities face renewed volatility as NVIDIA's blockbuster earnings failed to lift markets, triggering a multi-asset liquidation event. UK data softens further ahead of a critical budget, while currency markets rotate back into dollar strength. Commodities remain mixed—gold clings to key support, copper holds firm, uranium unwinds, and Brent struggles as geopolitical risks collide with weakening macro signals.Key highlights include:✅ US unemployment ticks higher; weekly jobless claims exceed expectations✅ Michigan consumer confidence falls to the second-weakest level since 1990✅ Inflation re-accelerates to 3% YoY, complicating the Fed's December meeting✅ UK retail sales disappoint; PMIs weaken; budget deficit widens✅ Pound breaks key support as UK sentiment deteriorates✅ NVIDIA beats expectations but triggers heavy tech liquidation✅ SPX, AI stocks & leveraged tech positions unwind sharply✅ Oracle CDS jumps as markets question AI-linked debt loads✅ Gold holds support; copper resilient despite broader volatility✅ Uranium sells off as power-demand assumptions face scrutiny✅ Bitcoin drops 24% in November — worst month since June 2022✅ Markets price a 77% chance of a Fed cut on December 10

US equities finished lower in Monday trading, ending a bit off worst levels. There were a few moving pieces as the market waits for a number of higher-profile events this week, including Nvidia NVDA earnings, retail earnings, FOMC minutes, a barrage of Fedspeak, and September's NFP and flash PMIs. In macro news, the Empire State manufacturing survey for November posted a surprise increase to 18.7, its highest since last November.

Capital Intereconomía ha comenzado la semana analizando la evolución de los mercados en Asia, Wall Street y Europa, marcada por la expectativa ante los PMIs y las actas de la Reserva Federal, que serán determinantes para el tono de los mercados en los próximos días. En el primer análisis, Eduardo Bolinches (Invertia) ha evaluado el comportamiento reciente de bonos, bolsa y dólar, destacando que la probabilidad de un recorte de tipos en diciembre cae al 52%, lo que genera más cautela en renta variable. El Ibex 35, pese a mantenerse en el podio de las ganancias anuales, empieza a alejarse de su directriz alcista vigente desde septiembre, lo que alimenta dudas sobre posibles episodios de vértigo alcista. Telefónica también centra la atención con la cuenta atrás para su ERE masivo, clave para su plan de reestructuración. En el plano internacional, el profesor José María Viñals ha analizado la gira diplomática de Zelenski, que hoy se reúne con Macron y mañana con Pedro Sánchez en un momento en el que Ucrania sufre cortes eléctricos de hasta 14 horas al día por los ataques rusos. También se ha comentado el resultado de la primera vuelta de las elecciones en Chile, con claves políticas y económicas para el país andino.

Michael Reinking, Senior Market Strategist at the NYSE, recaps a week marked by the end of a record 43-day government shutdown and fading AI euphoria. Markets wrestled with delayed data and Fed caution on rate cuts as volatility ticked higher. AI stocks cooled after bubble warnings and bearish bets, while investors rotated toward quality and large caps. Crypto weakness and rising VIX added to risk-off signals. The week closed steady, with eyes on earnings, global PMIs, and fresh economic data ahead.

The balance of risks has been buffeted by resilient spending and survey data (the tick) and weak labor market data (and the tock). After a tick of solid  3Q GDP tracking and improving PMIs through October, we once again see the tock of even weaker labor market data this week from the US and Western Europe. Resilience into next year depends on how well the tick weathers the tock.   Speakers: Bruce Kasman Joseph Lupton   This podcast was recorded on 14 November 2025.

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, membros do Fed adotaram tom mais hawk ao longo da semana, reforçando que a decisão de dezembro está longe de ser trivial. O governo americano chegou a um acordo orçamentário, encerrando o maior shutdown da história e garantindo financiamento até janeiro. Ainda nos EUA, Trump falou sobre cheques de US$2 mil à população, aumentando o risco fiscal. Na Europa, o Reino Unido recuou na proposta de elevar impostos após revisão positiva das projeções fiscais. Na geopolítica, houve novos ataques entre Rússia e Ucrânia. No Brasil, a ata do Copom esclareceu que o modelo de projeção condicional do BCB incorporou preliminarmente o impacto da nova faixa de isenção do IR, com o cenário condicional ainda projetando inflação em 3,3%, interpretado como mais dove que a expectativa. O IPCA de outubro veio melhor do que o esperado, com núcleos em desaceleração, exceto os ligados a mão de obra — ainda pressionados por um mercado de trabalho forte. Os dados de atividade vieram mistos: serviços surpreenderam positivamente, enquanto comércio recuou. No campo político, Lula interrompeu a sequência de melhora nas pesquisas e o cenário para 2026 voltou a ficar mais apertado. Nos EUA, o juro de 1 ano abriu 7 bps, enquanto as bolsas tiveram desempenho misto – S&P 500 +0,08%, Nasdaq -0,21% e Russell 2000 -1,83%. No Reino Unido, o juro de 30 anos abriu 14 bps.

Our strategists Michelle Weaver and Adam Jonas join analyst Christopher Snyder to discuss the most important themes that emerged from the Morgan Stanley Annual Industrials Conference in Laguna Beach.Michelle Weaver: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Michelle Weaver, Morgan Stanley's U.S. Thematic Strategist.Christopher Snyder: I'm Chris Snyder, Morgan Stanley's U.S. Multi-Industry Analyst. Adam Jonas: And I'm Adam Jonas, Morgan Stanley's Embodied AI Strategist.Michelle Weaver: We recently concluded Morgan Stanley's annual industrials conference in Laguna Beach, California, and wanted to share some of the biggest takeaways.It's Tuesday, September 16th at 10am in New York.I want to set the stage for our conversation. The overall tone at the conference was fairly similar to last year with many companies waiting for a broader pickup. And I'd flag three different themes that really emerged from the conference. So first, AI. AI is incredibly important. It appeared in the vast majority of fireside conversations. And companies were talking about AI from both the adopter and the enabler angle. Second theme on the macro, overall companies remain in search of a reacceleration. They pointed to consistently expansionary PMIs or a PMI above 50, a more favorable interest rate environment and greater clarity on tariffs as the key macro conditions for renewed momentum. And then the last thing that came up repeatedly was how are companies going to react to tariffs? And I would say companies overall were fairly constructive on their ability to mitigate the margin impact of tariffs with many talking about both leveraging pricing power and supply chain shifts to offset those impacts. So, Chris, considering all this, the wait for an inflection came up across a number of companies. What were some of your key takeaways on multis, on the macro front? Christopher Snyder: The commentary was stable to modestly improving, and that was really consistent across all of these companies. There are, you know, specific verticals where things are getting better. I would call out data center as one. Non-res construction, as another one, implant manufacturing as one. And there were certain categories where we are seeing deterioration – residential HVAC, energy markets, and agriculture.But we came away more constructive on the cycle because things are stable, if not modestly improving into a rate cut cycle. The concern going in was that we would hear about deteriorating trends and a rate cut would be needed just to stabilize the market. So, we do think that this backdrop is supportive for better industrial growth into 2026.We have been positive on the project or CapEx side of the house. It feels like strength there is improving. We've been more cautious on the short cycle production side of the house. But we are starting to see signs of rate of change. So, when we look into [20]26 and [20]27, we think U.S. industrials are poised for decade high growth. Michelle Weaver: You've had a thesis for a while now that U.S. reshoring is going to be incredibly important and that it's a $10 trillion opportunity. Can you unpack that number? What are some recent data points supporting that and what did you learn at the conference? Christopher Snyder: Some of the recent data points that support this view is U.S. manufacturing construction starts are up 3x post Liberation Day. So, we're seeing companies invest. This is also coming through in commercial industrial lending data, which continues to push higher almost every week and is currently at now record high levels. So, there's a lot of reasons for companies not to invest right now. There's a lot of uncertainty around policy. But seeing that willingness to invest through all of the uncertainty is a big positive because as that uncertainty lifts, we think more projects will come off the sidelines and be unlocked. So, we see positive rate of change on that. What I think is often lost in the reassuring conversation is that this has been happening for the last five years. The U.S. lost share of global CapEx from 2000 when China entered the World Trade Organization almost every year till 2019 when Trump implemented his first wave of tariffs. Since then, the U.S. has taken about 300 basis points of global CapEx share over the last five years, and that's a lot on a $30 trillion CapEx base. So, I think the debate here should be: Can this continue? And when I look at Trump policy, both the tariffs making imports more expensive, but also the incentives lowering the cost of domestic production – we do think these trends are stable. And I always want to stress that this is a game of increments. It's not that the U.S. is going to get every factory. But we simply believe the U.S. is better positioned to get the incremental factory over the next 20 years relative to the prior 20. And the best point is that the baseline growth here is effectively zero. Michelle Weaver: And how does power play into the reshoring story? AI and data centers are generating huge demand for power that well outstrip supply. Is there a risk that companies that want to reshore are not able to do so because of the power constraints?Christopher Snyder: It's a great question. I think it's part of the reason that this is moving more slowly. The companies that sell this power equipment tend to prioritize the data center customers given their scale in magnitude of buying. But ultimately, we think this is coming and it's a big opportunity for U.S. power to extend the upcycle.Manufacturing accounts for 26 percent of the electricity in the country. Data center accounts for about 5 percent. So, if the industrial economy returns to growth, there will be a huge pull on the grid; and I view it as a competitive advantage. If you think about the future of U.S. manufacturing, we're simply taking labor out and replacing it with electricity. That is a phenomenal trade off for the U.S. And a not as positive trade off for a lot of low-cost regions who essentially export labor to the world. I'm sure Adam will have more to say about that. Michelle Weaver: And Adam, I want to bring robotics and humanoid specifically into this conversation as the U.S.' technological edge is a big part of the reshoring story. So how do humanoids fit into reshoring? How much would they cost to use and how could they make American manufacturing more attractive? Adam Jonas: Humanoid robots – we're talking age agentic robots that make decisions from themselves autonomously due to the dual purpose in the military. You know, dual purpose aspect of it makes it absolutely necessary to onshore the technologies.At the same time, humanoid robots actually make it possible to onshore those technologies. Meaning you need; we're not going to be able to replicate manufacturing and onshore manufacturing the way it's currently done in China with their environmental practices and their labor – availability of affordable cheap human labor.Autonomous robots are both the cause of onshoring. And the effect of onshoring at the same time, and it's going to transform every industry. The question isn't so much as which industry will autonomous robots, including humanoids impact? It's what will it not.And we have not yet been able to find anything that it would. When you think about cost to use – we think by 2040 we get to a point where to Chris's point, the marginal cost of work will be some factor of electricity, energy, and some depreciation of that physical plant, or the physical robot itself. And we come up with a, a range of scenarios where centered on around $5 per hour. If that can replace two human workers at $25 an hour, that can NPV to around $200,000 of NPV per humanoid. That's discounting back 15 years from 2040.Michelle, there's 160 million people in the U.S. labor market, so if you just substituted 1 percent of that or 1.6 million people out of the U.S. Labor pool. 1.6 million times $200,000 NPV; that's $320 billion of value, which is worth, well, quite a lot. Quite a lot of money to a lot of companies that are working on this. So, when we get asked, what are we watching, well, in terms of the bleeding edge of the robot revolution, we're watching the Sino-U.S. competition. And I prefer to call it competition. And we're also watching the terra cap companies, the Mag 7 type companies that are quite suddenly and recently and very, very significantly going after physical AI and robotics talent. And increasingly even manufacturing talent. So again, to circle back to Chris's point, if you want evidence of reshoring and manufacturing and advanced manufacturing in this country, look at some of these TMT and tech and AI companies in California. And look at, go on their hiring website and watch all the manufacturing and robotics people that they're trying to hire; and pay a lot of money to do so. And that might be an interesting indicator of where we're going.Michelle Weaver: I want to dig in a little bit more there. We're seeing a lot of the cutting-edge tech coming out of China. Is the U.S. going to be able to catch up?Adam Jonas: Uh, I don't know. I don't know. But I would say what's our alternative. We either catch up enough to compete or we're up for grabs. OK?I would say from our reading and working closely with our team in China, that in many aspects of supply chain, manufacturing, physical AI, China is ahead. And with the passage of time, they are increasingly ahead. We estimate, and we can't be precise here, that China's lead on the U.S. would not only last three to five years, but might even widen three to five years from now. May even widen at an accelerating rate three to five years from now.And so, it brings into play is what kind of environment and what kind of regulatory, and policy decisions we made to help kind of level the playing field and encourage the right kind of manufacturing. We don't want to encourage trailing edge, Victorian era manufacturing in the U.S. We want to encourage, you know, to skate to where the puck is going technology that can help improve our world and create a sustainable abundance rather than an unsustainable one. And so, we're watching China very, very closely. It makes us a little bit; makes me a little bit kind of nervous when we – if we see the government put the thumb on the scale too much.But it's invariably going to happen. You're going to have increased involvement of whichever administration it is in order to kind of set policies that can encourage innovation, education of our young people, repurposing of labor, you know. All these people making machines in this country now. They might get, there may be a displacement over a number of years, if not a generation.But we need those human bodies to do other things in this economy as well. So, we; I don't want to give the impression at all in our scenarios that we don't need people anymore. Michelle Weaver: What are the opportunities and the risks that you see for investors as robotics converges with this broader U.S. manufacturing story? Adam Jonas: Well, Michelle, we see both opportunities and risks. There are the opportunities that you can measure in terms of what portion of global GDP of [$]115 trillion could you look at. I mean, labor alone is $40 trillion.And if you really make humanoid that can do the work of two workers, guess what? You're not going to stop at [$]40 trillion. You're going to go beyond that. You might go multiple beyond that. Talking about the world before AI, robotics and humanoid is like talking about the world before electricity. Or talking about business before the internet. We don't think we're exaggerating, but the proof will be in the capital formation. And that's where we hope we can be of assistance to our clients working together on a variety of investment ideas. But the risks will come and it is our professional responsibility, if not our moral responsibility, to work with our partners across research to talk about those risks. Michelle, if we have labor displacement, go too quickly, there's serious problems. And if you don't, if you don't believe me, go look at, look at you know, the French Revolution or the Industrial Revolution, or Age of Enlightenments. Ages of scientific enlightenment frequently cohabitate times of great social and political turmoil as well. And so, we think that these risks must be seen in parallel if we want to bring forth technologies that can make us more human rather than less human. I'm sorry if I'm coming across as a little preachy, but if you studied robots and labor all day long, it does have that effect on you. So, Michelle, how do you see innovation priorities changing for industrials and investors in this environment?Michelle Weaver: I think it's huge as we're seeing AI and technology broadly diffuse across different segments of the market, it's only becoming more important. About two-thirds of companies at the conference mentioned AI in some way, shape, or form. We know that from transcripts. And we're seeing them continue to integrate AI into their businesses. They're trying to go beyond what we've just seen at the initial edge. So, for example, if I think about what was going on within AI adoption a couple years ago, it was largely adding a chat bot to your website that's then able to handle a lot of customer service inquiries. Maybe you could reduce the labor there a little bit. Now we're starting to see a lot more business specific use cases. So, for example, with an airline, an airline company is using AI to most optimally gate different planes as they're landing to try and reduce connection times. They know which staff needs to go to another flight to connect, which passengers need to move to another flight. They're able to do that much more efficiently. You're seeing a lot on AI being adopted within manufacturing to make manufacturing processes a lot more seamless. So, I think innovation is only going to continue to become more important to not only industrials, but broadly the entire market as well.Clearly the industry is being shaped by adaptability, collaboration, and a focus on innovation. So, Chris, Adam, thank you both for taking the time to talk. Adam Jonas: Always a pleasure. Michelle.Christopher Snyder: Thank you for having us on.
