The truth, Trump, trade and tenders

Update: 2025-07-07

Description

My word is my bond, so they say.

But is the bond market telling us the truth? Mark Barnes and Tim Cohen discuss, wait for it, the bond market.

Exciting! Also … all the other stuff. The Trump tariffs trauma is back, so the subject of trade is back on the agenda.

But the story of the week is KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi throwing down the gauntlet on Police Minister Senzo Mchunu. Please do, Listen Up!
