Trump has remained in the news in the week since he cruised to victory in the US presidential election as more major figures in the world of finance weigh in on what his inflationary policies could mean for global economies.
We’ll discuss what Trump’s picks for secretary appointments could signal going forward and likely policy impacts, breaking down Future Fund CEO Raphael Arndt’s take on a Trump presidency, and the surging price of crypto in the wake of a Republican sweep.
Tune in as we also unpack embattled super fund Cbus’ appearance before a Senate committee and the Australian Securities and Investments Commission’s newly launched lawsuit against the trustee.
