Buckle up, because this week, we're diving into two massive stories shaking up the financial world. First up, Trump is back with a fresh batch of tariffs, sending markets into a tailspin and making investors everywhere question what’s next (and yes, avocados are at risk). We break down why global trade drama affects your portfolio and how companies are scrambling to keep up. Then, we tackle Google's surprising move to ditch its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) goals - alongside other corporate giants like Meta and Amazon. What does this shift mean for the future of workplace diversity? And should you rethink where you invest your money? We break it all down, from trade war tensions to the shifting landscape of socially responsible investing. The Forsyth Barr Funds are issued by Forsyth Barr Investment Management Limited.
