From China’s gray trade workarounds to Trump’s tariff theatrics and a bond market behaving more like Bitcoin, this week delivered geopolitical tension and monetary mayhem in equal measure.
Al breaks down why so-called safe havens are now showing cracks, while Rich explores how global turbulence is seeping into Aussie markets—where yields are steady, but credit spreads and labor data suggest all is not calm.

Read All About It: In Episode 2 of The Weekly Edge, Rich and Al tackle a turbulent week that saw global markets rattled by tariff threats, bond volatility, and the creeping specter of stagflation. From Trump’s tariff salvos to China’s counterpunches and the safe-haven unraveling of U.S. Treasuries, this week’s macro headlines had teeth.
Al explains why bond yields are rising despite recession fears, and how the “safe assets” of the past may be the risk drivers of tomorrow. Rich draws parallels between the global chessboard and Aussie shores—where job numbers are weakening, credit markets are tightening, and investors are being forced to rethink traditional diversification.
