Last week, I joined Juliette Saly on Ausbiz to discuss the contrasting bull and bear market outlooks for 2025. On the bearish side, concerns are mounting over a weakening global and U. S. economy.

This week, I spoke with Phil Clark on ABC Nightlife about the latest moves from the Trump administration and their impact on the U. S. economy. We looked at how markets are reacting to Trump’s 90-day tariff pause amid ongoing policy flip-flops that are shaking investor confidence.

I recently joined Paul Turton on ABC Newcastle Mornings to discuss current market volatility and what investors might expect under a Labor government. We touched on the unpredictable influence of Donald Trump – from talk of firing the Federal Reserve Chairman to his “Liberation Day” tariffs – which has fuelled market turbulence.

I joined Juliette Saly on Ausbiz to discuss the first 100 days of the Trump administration, which has been marked by controversial executive orders, mass deportations, ‘January 6’ pardons, and of course – tariffs.
