In this episode of SB Talks, CEO Vincent O'Neill and CIO Nick Ryder take listeners on a rapid-fire tour of a turbulent start to 2026. They explore the capture of Venezuela's President, rising tensions between the U.S. and its allies over Greenland, and the White House's growing standoff with the Federal Reserve. The conversation then moves through emerging U.S. policy risks, from credit card interest rates to government shutdown chatter, before circling back to what it all means for investors.
Wrapping up, they cover Australia's resilient labour market, Japan's bond and currency moves, and the speculative surge in gold and precious metal prices that is capturing headlines worldwide.
