Today we are joined by Christopher Joye, founder of Coolabah Capital and regular columnist for the AFR.

Chris is never one to pull his punches, so tune in as we discuss:

• What is happening in the fixed income market
• Where the US and Australian economy may go from here
• Why the RBA may be "humiliated" by the coming economic data
• Why he is not-so-quietly bullish on DOGE's impact
• And so much more!

Money doesn't make you happy. But it does give you control over your life. And it turns out, that makes you happy.

That was the conclusion of Angus Campbell, a psychologist at the University of Michigan who studied happiness and the biggest predictors of it.

• Katy Perry is going to space (trust us, there's an investing angle here)

The global opportunity set for investors is massive. And yet, so much of our attention focuses on such a narrow section of one market. Today's guest wants us to break out of our bubble and explore the full global opportunity that we have before us.

We speak to Alexander about:

• Two companies Alexander is finding interesting at the moment: API Group (NYSE: APG) and Aramark (NYSE: ARMK)

There was always going to be a day when this happened. Australia's superannuation industry has grown to more than $4 trillion assets under management. That is becoming too big for a country with a GDP of $3 trillion and a local stock market with a market cap of $2.7 trillion.

That's only the start of another big episode of Equity Mates:

• Luke Laretive joins for Pimp my Portfolio
• We explain how fees can compound into hundreds of thousands of dollars
