Just two months ago, the World Trade Organization predicted global trade would grow by nearly 2% next year. Now, it's revised that forecast down to just 0.5% as the impact of the Trump administration's sweeping tariffs sinks in. We'll hear what's been propping up trade so far and what's on the road ahead. Then, "Marketplace Tech" shares tips for spotting job scams. And later, we'll hear how other countries' "gold card" visa programs fared.
When President Donald Trump slapped tariffs on Chinese goods earlier this year, China ceased crop purchases from U.S. farmers.

Plus, the price of gold keeps climbing, and we check in with a tea shop owner about how tariffs are affecting business.

We head to Switzerland, a small but very successful country with a population of just 9 million.And now coping with some of US President Donald Trump's highest tariffs.

Air Date 10/7/2025 The Trump administration has been doing what we knew it would: breaking laws and losing about 95% of their court battles. And the conservatively stacked Supreme Court has been doing what we knew it would: overwhelmingly ruling for Trump to cover his tracks because that's what they were put there to do.

Today, it still is the best option compared to the other rising manufacturing companies like Vietnam, India, and Thailand. Compared to America, manufacturing in China is still the best option even factoring in the transit costs and 3PL costs. However, in the far future, China might not be the country to manufacture from. We're holding a special Importing from China webinar on October 8th where we'll be talking about how you can find products that still make sense to source only in China (and skip the ones that don't) while getting the lowest tariff rates and more!

00:00:55 – Trump's War on FarmersOpening segment frames Trump's tariffs as a betrayal of the middle class, driving family farms into collapse and pushing farmers toward welfare dependency. 00:31:40 – Frankenbutter & Gates' Food AgendaBill Gates funds lab-grown “Frankenbutter” made from CO2, mocked as expensive technocratic food control. Knight argues the goal is to eliminate family farming and force populations onto synthetic foods. 00:52:57 – Trump–Pfizer Deal SecrecyClosing sections highlight secrecy around Trump's Pfizer agreements, comparing them to Epstein files, and framing them as crony capitalism with Big Pharma shielded from accountability. 00:55:21 – Trump–Pfizer Deal SecrecyPfizer's $70 billion deal with Trump sparks outrage over secrecy.

Hotel owners lose money every day on purchasing inefficiencies. AI can change that. On No Vacancy Live, I spoke with Charles Oswald, CEO of Aperture Hotels, and Ryan Zaucha, Director of Strategic Partnerships at Reeco, about how technology transforms purchasing into profit. Here's what we uncovered:
In this week's Ag Tribes Report, fourth-generation Missouri cattleman and board member Glenn Cope joins the discussion to analyze a turbulent moment for agriculture. The conversation explores President Trump's plan to redirect tariff revenues to soybean growers, the unintended consequences of a U.S. bailout enabling Argentina's cheap soybean exports to China, and how these actions increase price and input pressures on farmers. It also addresses the looming threat of New World Screwworm nearing the U.S. border, its potential impact on animal health and markets, mitigation tools like ivermectin and Zoetis' Decomax CA, and the importance of border policy and fly control. With a government shutdown stalling USDA services during harvest, the discussion highlights how delayed loans, payments, and data disrupt cash flow and accelerate consolidation. Glenn offers insights on the Bitcoin Land Price Report from the Ozarks, the Peter Thiel paradox on land values, and his “worthy adversary” perspective on RFK Jr.'s stance on agricultural tools like Roundup, emphasizing the necessity of no-till and modern inputs for efficiency and environmental outcomes.The report includes the honoring of the memory of Ryan Whitehouse of the Illinois Farm Bureau and encouraging the recording of family stories—through Legacy Interviews or simple, intentional conversations—to preserve memories that shape understanding of the past and strengthen connections.Legacy Interviews - A service that records individuals and couples telling their life stories so that future generations can know their family history. https://www.legacyinterviews.com/experienceRiver.com - Invest in Bitcoin with Confidence https://river.com/signup?r=OAB5SKTP
Investors' exuberance is fueling this year's stock rally, but will key economic risks dampen the market's mood? The current bull run has lifted stocks from their springtime lows to higher levels in autumn. The artificial intelligence boom is one of the big factors driving it. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve is dealing with the challenging situation of balancing the weakening job market and stubborn inflation. The Fed cut interest rates for the first time in 2025 in the third quarter, but the path forward from here is less certain. Morningstar Inc Senior Markets Reporter Sarah Hansen discusses seven key market factors you should watch in Q4 2025.Nvidia's investment of up to $100 billion in ChatGPT creator OpenAI could shatter records. The big bet is helping feed two simple narratives about the AI era, according to Dan Kemp, chief research and investment officer at Morningstar Investment Management Europe. First, there's too much investment in the technology, and booms tend to lead to busts. Second, AI has changed the rules of investing and returns. Kemp cautions investors to remember that there are a wide range of possible outcomes than these easy stories. On this episode:You examine the highs and lows during each quarter and write about it. What do you think are the biggest takeaways from Q3? Stocks are climbing higher despite a lot of risks. What signals is the market ignoring, and could it be at its own peril? The AI boom is driving what's going on in the market. Mega-cap tech companies are making huge investments. Where's the money going, and how long is this level of spending expected to continue? The hot IPO market has benefited from AI. Some of the most successful IPOs this year involved the industry. Can you describe this revival? The first interest rate cut of 2025 is in the books. The Federal Reserve pointed to the softening job market as one reason for the move. What are strategists telling you as the markets await the Fed's next move? Inflation is still not tamed and hovering above the Fed's 2% target. There are expectations that tariffs could raise prices for a while. What are the outlooks from Morningstar and other strategists? As the Fed cuts rates, short-term yields will come down. What about the rest of the bond market? Where do people see the risks? The federal funding fight is continuing in Washington, D.C. Let's timestamp this moment. It's Tuesday, Sept. 30. The US government would shut down on Oct. 1 if there's not an agreement. How does uncertainty like this affect the markets, and what should investors think? Earnings season is coming up in a couple weeks. What is your team watching for? What's the takeaway for investors as we enter Q4?We talked on last week's Investing Insights about inflation. The Federal Reserve's preferred tracker showed inflation slightly ticked up in August as forecasters expected. It also revealed consumer spending rose. What do you think that's signaling about the US economy? In this week's Markets Brief column, you highlighted Nvidia's potentially record-breaking investment. The chipmaker announced it would invest up to $100 billion in OpenAI. How should investors think about this deal?New economic data is due out this week. What are you tracking for next week's Markets Brief? Read about topics from this episode. 13 Charts on Q3's Tech-Driven Stock Rally Will the AI Boom in Semiconductor Stocks Continue?

In a climate where most consumers are concerned about tariffs (84%) and inflation (80%), the holiday season is poised to be a battlefield for retention and revenue. Optimove's Moshe Demri, SVP of Global Revenue, joins Future Commerce to walk through the 2025 Consumer Holiday Shopping Report and explain why the “charm customer” (those responsive to modest 10%-15% discounts) may be the key to sustainable growth.The Cherry-Picker's DilemmaKey takeaways:Meet the three customer archetypes: Full-price buyers who purchase regardless of promotions, cherry pickers who chase deep discounts and rarely return, and "charm customers" who respond to modest 10%-15% discounts and show the highest retention rates over time. (The fourth archetype: Brian)Transparency as a competitive advantage: Brands that communicate their promotional calendar early (like telling customers in October "this is the only Black Friday promotion you'll see from us") build trust while competitors exhaust and frustrate their audiences.Post-holiday retention begins at checkout: Collecting gift-giving data and offering time-sensitive follow-up promotions can transform one-time gift purchasers into repeat customers. The key is creating urgency without devaluing the brand.Communication requires quality, not quantity: Dodging customer fatigue is worth the awareness risk. Dialing back from daily to weekly emails might be the better move for companies this year.Strategic budget allocation matters more than discount depth: Want to boost long-term profitability and brand equity? Give your VIP customers high-value discounts and experiences, not low-tier cherry-pickers who are unlikely to stick around.

RICHARD HAASS returns to the podcast to talk about the US FOREIGN POLICY implications of Trump's Tariffs and other initiatives. We take another tour of the world's hotspots after the recent UN conference here in New York. Finally, we weave in an analogy of the recent crowd misbehavior at the Ryder Cup as a symptom of America's current mood. https://youtu.be/z4FlnrXl8tE US FOREIGN POLICY: INTRO Frazer Rice (00:01.277) Welcome aboard, Richard. We are past our technology glitch, I think. The next big thing here is to try to figure out what the US looks like. We're on the heels of the UN week and also the Ryder Cup. I'm not sure which one was more chaotic, but as you look at the US's standing after the UN, what do you take from the events that took place last week? Richard Haass (00:02.744) on US FOREIGN POLICY Great to be back. THE US MOOD (AND THE RYDER CUP) Richard Haass (00:28.172) It was not a great week for what Joe and I, may he rest in peace, called soft power. What happened at Beth Page, the terrible manners, the coarseness, vulgarity, choose your word, the lack of sportsmanship, we could go on, but you get the point, was really poorly received in Europe, as it should have been. And I thought the PGA here just showed a blind spot would be generous. So it was not good. I felt somewhat between embarrassed and ashamed and also just overshadowed some unbelievable golf on both sides. Frazer Rice (01:11.069)Kind of where I came out on it. And it just felt bad watching some really good players doing their thing and then all of a sudden, again, overshadowed by pretty boorish behavior. Richard Haass (01:22.51) Particularly golf, because golf's a game of rules and norms. I think it was Rory Mclroy who used the word etiquette, and what we saw was anything but. I really wondered at times whether some of those people ever played golf. And then the UN. Look, it didn't happen in isolation. The President's US Foreign Policy speech was…at times just, it was seen, it was taken badly by Europeans. It was for understandable reasons, seen by them as something of an attack on them. The comments like about Sharia law in London were over the top. The criticism of immigration policy, some of which, for the record, deserve some criticism, I would say. The total denial of climate change was badly received. So it was not good, even though, and I think the president detracted for some of his legitimate criticisms of the UN. My own sense, though, is the UN's got bigger problems than Donald Trump's speech. The UN has basically made itself increasingly irrelevant. It's no longer a place for serious diplomacy. At most, it's a venue for side meetings. And since then, you've had the announcement of a "peace" plan for Gaza and so forth. So the world's moved on. quite honestly, what matters is not what happened during a few days of traffic in New York, but rather what happens more broadly. So we'll see what, if anything, comes of this Middle East announcement. We'll see what happens next, if anything, diplomatically with Ukraine. President Trump's about to meet his Chinese counterpart in less than a month in South Korea. So there's a lot going on. And not to mention domestically, there's a lot going on we can discuss. So the fact that the Ryder Cup or the UN were not great in and of themselves, they're more data points. And I think what matters is more the larger story for better and for worse. US Foreign Policy: Russia and the Ukraine Frazer Rice (03:32.339)As we just a couple of quick points to hit back on Ukraine Russia. What's the state of play in there right now? Richard Haass (03:41.71) Well, we're reaching the end of what you might call the third fighting season of this phase of the war, the one that started just over, mean, just under three years ago, in February of 22, if I have my dates right. My sense is things will dial down militarily somewhat during the winter,

When President Trump came into office, he promised to fuel an economic boom with a magic bullet: tariffs. They're taxes added to a wide range of imports. And money is coming in, more than $30 billion a month so far. Eight months into Trump's second term, it's unclear what the larger impact of these tariffs will have on the economy. Despite that, the president keeps promising to roll out new ones.
