As the U.S. pushes forward with new tariffs and a tougher trade stance, China appears to blink — signaling potential cracks in its economic armor. Lance Roberts and Danny Ratliff dive into the latest developments in the U.S.–China trade conflict, why China is making strategic concessions, and what it means for global markets, supply chains, and future negotiations. Danny reviews his trip to South Africa, and they discuss the possible impact of AI on employment; market dynamics are being pulled by two forces: older, more bearish investors, and youthful, more bullish types; dealing with investor exhaustion. The first fallout from the GLP-1 craze is Weight Watchers' bankruptcy; health = wealth.
