In today’s episode, we untangle the globe’s tightest trade knots and diplomatic snubs. President Trump threatens 30% tariffs on both the EU and Mexico, sparking fury in Brussels and Mexico City. Meanwhile, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent ditches the G20 in South Africa for Japan’s Expo — and somehow that’s not the weirdest part of the day.

Markets? They’re playing it cool... or are they just numb from shock?

We’ll also look at NATO’s Rutte heading to D.C., Gulf investors treading lightly, and why high-risk assets are suddenly everybody’s favorite escape plan.

All this, plus a side of satire and economic déjà vu. Tune in, laugh (darkly), and stay globally informed.
