UBS On-Air: Paul Donovan Daily Audio 'Domestic demand drivers' Aug 06, 2025

Show notes

There is apparently a shortlist of four for the position of next governor of the Federal Reserve, and prospective nominee to be chair of the board of governors. US Treasury Secretary Bessent is not on the short-list. The question is whether anyone nominated can possibly shake off the perception of being a political puppet.

UBS On-Air: Paul Donovan Daily Audio 'The bigger picture on trade' Aug 05, 2025

Show notes

The US June trade balance is due—measuring both goods and services. For some bilateral relationships (e.g. trade with the EU), the US goods deficit is almost entirely offset by a services surplus. Goods export patterns have been distorted by the anticipation of trade taxes, and to some extent by boycotts of US goods. It is unlikely that there will be any evidence of tariffs transforming the US into an export powerhouse.

We explore the drivers behind the dollar’s slide, the implications for international portfolios, and why now is the time for investors to review and diversify their currency exposures. Join Dominic Schnider, Head CIO Global FX & Commodity, and Constantin Bolz, CIO FX Strategist, for a discussion with co-hosts Christopher Swann and Belinda Peeters.

We recap last week’s, FOMC meeting, July Jobs report (and revisions), Q2 earnings, and a key Fed resignation. Featured is Jason Draho, Head of Asset Allocation Americas, UBS Chief Investment Office. Host: Daniel Cassidy

UBS On-Air: Paul Donovan Daily Audio 'Fragility' Aug 04, 2025

Show notes

Last Friday’s US employment report revisions were in line with a fragile labor market narrative. The story is still “not hiring, not firing.” Falling manufacturing employment is consistent with policy uncertainty. The most troubling development on Friday was not the data, but US President Trump firing the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner.

Featured is Danny Kessler, Asset Allocation Americas, UBS Chief Investment Office. Host: Shiavon Chatman

UBS On-Air: Paul Donovan Daily Audio 'The taxation burden descends' Aug 01, 2025

Show notes

The global economy is reverberating with the dull thud of the yoke of taxation dropping onto the shoulders of US consumers. These taxes do not show up in consumer baskets with full force until January next year—the question is whether the courts will overturn these taxes before then. If they do (forcing the government to return tax revenues to the US supply chain), it is possible US consumers will never fully appreciate the costs.
