There have only been two U.S. recessions since 2001 – the Great Financial Crisis and the Pandemic Recession. Both of these were huge – accounting for two of the only three times since the 1940s that the unemployment rate has vaulted to double digits. However, because the recessions of our recent memory have been so dramatic, investors may not appreciate the risks from a softer sort of slowdown.
China is said to be conducting an assessment on US trade negotiations and urged the US to demonstrate sincerity for trade talks, while it urged the US to correct mistakes regarding tariffs and noted it is currently evaluating possible US trade talks.US Secretary of State Rubio said the Chinese want to meet and talk, while he added those talks will come up soon and there's a broader question about how much we should buy from China going forwardJapanese Finance Minister Kato said Japan's huge US Treasury holdings are among the tools it can wield in trade negotiations with the US but added that whether Japan wields that card is a different question.European bourses are entirely in the green as the region returns from holiday; US equity futures gain, AMZN -2% & AAPL -2.7% pre-market.USD's recovery pauses for breath as markets brace for NFP, AUD outperforms.Gilts outperform, EGBs largely unaffected by HICP, USTs digest trade updates & Kato's remarks into NFP.Crude is on the backfoot, whilst XAU and base metals benefit from the softer Dollar.Looking ahead, US NFP & Durable Goods, Earnings from Exxon Mobil, Chevron, Apollo, Brookfield.Read the full report covering Equities, Forex, Fixed Income, Commodites and more on Newsquawk

(00:01) Golf Tees and Playing Tips This chapter takes you into the vibrant world of golf and its unique intersections with events like the Kentucky Derby Festival. I share insights into a special hole-in-one contest tied to the festival, where hitting the perfect shot could eventually lead to a million-dollar prize, although it's a rare feat to achieve. Anecdotes of friends, including a 72-year-old who managed to hit a hole-in-one, highlight the unexpected joys and challenges of the game. We also explore the idea of what tees golfers should use, emphasizing the importance of playing from a position that allows for an enjoyable game without unnecessary strain. Stories from a Facebook group for senior golfers illustrate how people adapt their approach to the sport, even taking it up later in life. Through humor and shared experiences, we celebrate the camaraderie and strategy that make golf a beloved pastime for many. (12:10) Golf Fitness Tips for Seniors This chapter takes us into the world of golf, focusing on the realities faced by older players. I explore common misconceptions about driving distances and hitting greens in regulation, highlighting how expectations often don't match reality, especially as we age. We discuss the temptation of purchasing gimmicky golf clubs from late-night infomercials, but instead emphasize the importance of physical fitness, encouraging older golfers to engage in regular exercise like treadmill workouts, cycling, and weightlifting to maintain their game. I also touch on the financial aspects of golfing frequently and the challenges of finding affordable equipment. Lastly, I suggest some golf-specific exercises for older players to help improve their game and keep them active on the course. (19:58) Golf Swing Mobility and Equipment Upgrade This chapter focuses on the importance of flexibility and strength in improving your golf swing, emphasizing exercises that target the back, legs, and core. We discuss the benefits of shoulder mobility and how simple exercises, like arm rotations, can enhance your swing and prevent injuries. We also explore the advancements in golf equipment, noting that while yearly updates are common, significant improvements typically occur every three to four years. Whether you're returning to golf after a hiatus or just starting, understanding the role of modern equipment can greatly enhance your game. We also highlight resources like Ben Shear and MyTPI.com for further guidance. (24:52) Golf Club Fitting Importance This chapter explores the frequent release cycles of golf equipment by companies like Callaway and TaylorMade, noting how new models often follow just after purchases, avoiding the need for sales. We emphasize the importance of getting fitted for golf clubs to ensure optimal performance, rather than relying on marketing claims. By examining how lighter, more flexible shafts might benefit golfers with slower swing speeds, we highlight the need for personalized fittings to truly understand the value and performance of different clubs. Additionally, I share anecdotes about golfers upgrading from outdated equipment, illustrating the significant advancements in technology. The chapter underscores the idea that while new technology can offer better performance, the perceived ease of use is equally valuable, even if the actual distance improvement is minimal. (34:56) Improving Golf Skills and Enjoyment This chapter focuses on the approach one should take when engaging with golf, whether as a sport or a game. We discuss the importance of understanding one's goals and the commitment required to achieve them. For those treating golf as a sport, athleticism and consistent practice are emphasized, while others may prefer to enjoy it as a recreational game. I stress the significance of realistic self-assessment and setting achievable expectations, highlighting that improvement demands effort and sometimes professional lessons. Additionally, we touch on common misconceptions about golfing knowledge and the value of learning the basics to enhance one's game. The conversation also highlights the joy of using the right equipment and the satisfaction of improving skills through focused practice. (42:26) Club Fitting and Grip Size This chapter emphasizes the importance of being selective and thoughtful when purchasing golf equipment, especially for newcomers or those returning to the game after a break. We explore how essential it is to get properly fitted for clubs, just as one would tailor a tuxedo for a special event. The discussion highlights the significance of grip size, particularly for seniors who may experience arthritis. Softer, larger grips can enhance comfort and performance, allowing for a more relaxed and efficient swing. By reconsidering outdated, hard grips, golfers can enjoy a more enjoyable and less painful experience on the course. Ultimately, it's crucial to assess your current equipment, explore new options, and invest in lessons to enhance your game.

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about space—not the kind between stars, but the space in our homes, in our hearts, and in our minds. After my dear mum passed away, something stirred deep inside me. I felt an urge to declutter—not just the rooms in my house, but the layers of who I used to be. So I started with my wardrobe. It's incredible how much a closet can carry. Skirts I hadn't worn in decades. Blouses from a time when I tried to be perfect for everyone. Pieces that cost too much to throw away… but were costing me peace by staying.Then I asked myself a question I now want to ask you too:Do I really want to keep parts of an identity I've already outgrown?Because the truth is—I've changed. I'm not the stressed-out mum juggling two little boys. I'm not the corporate woman trying to be liked by everyone. I'm someone new. Softer. Wiser. Freer. And I have a feeling you are too.Letting go became a sacred act. That was just the beginning.I walked through my kitchen and asked: “Do I still want to eat from these plates that carry years of old energy?”I opened drawers, sorted through papers and notebooks from seminars I had forgotten. I cleaned the garden pond and cleared the overgrown plants—suddenly, there was room for new life to emerge. Frogs, toads, peace.And all throughout, something in me softened.I felt the joy of becoming again.Of remembering that I am allowed to change.That I don't have to carry everything I once was into the life I'm living now.If you're feeling stuck, unsure, or simply longing for a shift, maybe this is your moment too.BOOKS:

The Aussie stock market rebounded strongly today, with inflation data fueling expectations of an imminent interest rate cut by the Reserve Bank.

Locally, all 11 sectors ended higher, led by tech, utilities, and property.

There was a clear relief rally in both the stock and rates market, following softer-than-expected US CPI numbers last week. In the grand scheme of things however, asset pricings have swung between growth and inflation or policy shocks over the past year. In this episode, Richard Tang, Head of Research Hong Kong at Julius Baer, discusses the significant treasury moves over the past year, the implications of the latest CPI print, and what to watch out in rates and equities markets.
US futures are indicating a higher open today, following Wednesday's sharply higher close where the S&P 500, Nasdaq and R2K all logged their best sessions in two months. European equity markets have opened in the positive territory, following a solid handover from the firmer Asian markets.

Happy New Year and welcome back to Our Mindful Nature, where we explore the intersection of meditation, nature, and mental health. Let's start the year by diving into a fresh, gentler perspective on mindfulness — or should we say, heartfulness?In this episode, I share a thought that's been swirling in my mind: what if we reframed our practice? While in the West, meditation is often translated as “mindfulness,” the original Pali word aligns more closely with the concept of “heartfulness.” Imagine how this shift might change the way we experience meditation practice and life.
Ever wondered what strings might help your instrument sound warmer? Brighter? Louder? Softer? Should you try gut strings? Is there a difference between synthetic and composite strings? What about all metal strings, and do different types of metals make a difference? What about different gauges, or tensions for that matter? How should you best care for your strings, and when should you change them? In this episode, host Laurel Thomsen answers your questions about strings, arming you with more knowledge to make an informed choice to balance your instrument tone and get the most out of your strings.

"Seal" by William Jay Smith See how he divesFrom the rocks with a zoom!See how he dartsThrough his watery roomPast crabs and eelsAnd green seaweed,Past fluffs of sandyMinnow feed!See how he swimsWith a swerve and a twist,A flip of the flipper,A flick of the wrist!Quicksilver-quick,Softer than spray,Down he plungesAnd sweeps away;Before you can think,Before you can utterWords like "Dill pickle"Or "Apple butter,"Back up he swimsPast Sting Ray and Shark,Out with a zoom,A whoop, a bark;Before you can sayWhatever you wish,He plops at your sideWith a mouthful of fish!

Bible Reading: Ezekiel 36:26; Matthew 5:43-48; 1 Timothy 1:12-17Abby slid her lunch tray next to her best friend Everly. "Can you believe these cookies?" she complained, tapping a hard chocolate chip cookie against her front tooth. "A squirrel couldn't eat these!"Everly shrugged. "They're not so bad if you soak them first." She dunked her cookie in a glass of milk and took a bite. "See?""Oh yeah!" Abby said. "You're always full of good ideas.""I wish." Everly's expression soured. "Maybe then I'd know how to get Kenzie to quit pestering me. She's such a bully."Abby glanced across the cafeteria to where Kenzie sat alone. She'd started teasing Abby and her friends after learning they all went to the same church camp each summer. She called them dumb and stuck-up and claimed she'd never be caught dead in church, much less a summer camp for babies."Maybe we should invite her to eat with us," Abby suggested with a nervous nibble of her cookie. She knew it was the right thing to do even though she didn't like Kenzie very much, and the idea of eating lunch with her tied her stomach in knots. "Maybe then she'd get to know us better and we could tell her more about what we believe.""Yeah, I guess," Everly said. "She's asked me questions about my faith before, but I got the feeling she was just trying to pick a fight with me."As Abby thought it over, she had an idea. "Hey, what if Kenzie is like this cookie?"Everly wrinkled her nose. "You want to dunk her in milk? I could go along with that."Abby laughed. "No, I mean, what if Kenzie needs some softening too? Remember how I talked bad about God and the Bible before I knew Jesus loved me?" Everly tightened her lips, recalling some of the things Abby had said. "God had to change my heart," Abby continued. "Let's pray and ask God to soften Kenzie's heart and help us be kind to her." Everly considered her friend. "Okay, let's pray and then go ask Kenzie if she wants to join us for lunch." She dunked her cookie in her milk. "And can we pray for better cookies too?" Abby laughed and nodded. "Softer cookies and softer hearts."–Christa HoganHow About You?Have you met anyone whose heart seemed hardened toward God? It's easy to forget that we all had hard hearts before we experienced Jesus's love and He changed us. God can soften any heart, and He can help you love those who tease you or are mean to you because of your faith. Pray for those who don't know Jesus, and trust Him to help you show them His love.Today's Key Verse:But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. (NIV) (Matthew 5:44)Today's Key Thought:God softens hearts
