Secretary Howard Lutnick on the historic Japan deal: "The Japanese have given President Trump $550 billion for President Trump to direct where and how he wants it invested in America. And if you think about that, that's half a percent of GDP growth per year for the rest of his term, given to Donald Trump by the Japanese in order to build in America for our national and economic security."

This man, William Ruto, isn't receiving his followers he rightly deserves... In 2022, inflation was 9.6%; it's now 3.8% in 2025. The Kenyan shilling against major currencies has stabilised—from KES 162 in 2022 to KES 129 in 2025 against the dollar. Kenya's foreign exchange reserves hit an all-time high of around $11 billion last month. Kenya's economic growth has made remarkable strides, surpassed that of Ethiopia, and become the 6th in Africa from 8th. All these strides, are as a result of bold and strategic measures under taken in the last 2.5 years.

Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed officially commenced the nine-month performance review for the 2017 E.C. earlier today. The session began with a macroeconomic presentation, which provided an overview of the impact of global economic trends on the local economy, as well as an update on the progress of ongoing macroeconomic reforms. It was highlighted that the global economy is projected to grow by 3.3% in 2025, with most regions, including sub-Saharan Africa, showing positive trends. Ethiopia’s growth is forecasted at 8.4%. As a result of Ethiopia’s macroeconomic reform program aimed at fostering a stable macro environment, both savings and investments have shown an upward trajectory. The external debt-to-GDP ratio has significantly declined, currently standing at 13.7%. Furthermore, the introduction of a new foreign exchange regime has led to increased remittance inflows and a rise in foreign currency reserves. Export earnings from agriculture, mining, industry, and electricity have all seen an increase compared to the same period last year, with the top five export earners comprising coffee, gold, pulses, oilseeds, flowers, and electricity. The review also highlighted notable progress in key infrastructure and large-scale projects. The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), for instance, has reached 98.66% completion, with six units currently operational. This morning’s presentation concluded with a review of sustainable development efforts, emphasising inclusivity as a key performance indicator. It also outlined initiatives aimed at creating an enabling environment for sustainable development. #PMOEthiopia

Reporter: Venezuela has over 300 billion barrels of crude oil reserves. That's more than any country on the planet. Maduro has claimed that this potential military confrontation is being driven by a desire to control Venezuela's oil reserves. The Trump administration says this is really all about trying to stop the flow of illegal drugs and undocumented migrants, but it can't be lost on US officials that this is a place of potential new sources of oil production, and it's right in the US's backyard.

🚨🇵🇰📉Pakistan's financial situation is facing a serious crisis, with the country's total debt now reaching 80 trillion rupees, including 36 trillion in external debt, which is linked to the exchange rate of the US dollar. Chief Minister Suhail Afridi stated that most of these external loans have been provided by the IMF, the World Bank, & the Asian Development Bank. Around 70% of Pakistan’s $20 billion in foreign reserves consist of debt or aid from friendly countries. He warned that if these countries demand repayment, the artificially maintained exchange rate of 280 rupees per dollar could surpass 400. Declining exports, heavy debt, & reliance on foreign aid have put Pakistan’s economic stability at serious risk.

Counselor to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent Joseph Lavorgna: If you look at capital spending, it grew over 15% in the first half of the year... we saw good growth in industrial equipment, transportation, and that was the result of the fact that the [One Big Beautiful] bill was written to make capital spending retroactive to inauguration day, so that spending has accelerated. We saw the new orders component in the ISM the other day improve. The widely followed Atlanta Fed GDP is forecasting 3.5% GDP growth. And that’s after a 3% plus gain in the last quarter. So, the trajectory of growth is very solid.

Look at the numbers. The amount of damage done in the last 10 years across every metric you want to measure, is catastrophic. The collapse of growth in Canada from a GDP basis, the collapse of invested capital in the country, debt per capita, foreign investment invested per capita, completely chaotic immigration policy, policy around resources and energy that basically crushed the competitiveness. There is no number you can measure during the mandate of Trudeau and Freeland that isn't a complete collapse.

Since the start of the full-scale invasion, Russia has been increasing its war spending every year. In the 2026 budget, the Kremlin plans to spend 12.93 trillion rubles ($163,4 billion) (almost 30%, a record since the Soviet era) on the war, the army, and weapons purchases. This rapid growth in spending is happening without an adequate revenue base. The Russian economy has rested on three main pillars: energy exports, gold and foreign exchange reserves, and the National Wealth Fund. ◾️ Oil and gas revenues account for about 25% of Russia's budget and are the main source of funding for the war against Ukraine. As of mid-December, prices for Russian Urals crude are at their lowest level since the start of the full-scale war, at just over $40 per barrel. In February 2022, Urals prices were in the range of $80-90 per barrel. ◾️ Russia's National Wealth Fund is rapidly losing liquid assets: from $113.5 billion in 2022 to $51.6 billion in 2025. It was used to finance the budget deficit, especially in 2022-2024. ◾️ Gold and foreign exchange reserves - at the end of November, according to Ukraine's Foreign Intelligence Service, in order to quickly patch up holes in the budget and support the ruble exchange rate, Russia's Central Bank began selling strategic gold reserves. The sale is taking place on the domestic market. Access to foreign markets is blocked by sanctions. In fact, Russia is "eating through" reserves that for decades were considered untouchable. ◾️ Even the Russian media are now openly writing about the possibility of the Russian economy entering a phase of stagnation. According to experts, the 1% GDP growth projected by the economic development ministry for 2025 will most likely not be achieved. Declines in industrial output have been recorded across all civilian sectors of the Russian economy. According to the latest data, there has even been a decline in production in the military sector, despite government contracts and financial backing from the budget. ◾️ Due to sanctions restrictions, declining international trust, and high risks, Russia has extremely limited access to external loans. There is little reason to expect a rise in energy prices. Therefore, social programs are being cut, payments to contract soldiers are being reduced, and further emissions and tax increases are being implemented. 🔷 From January 1, 2026, the VAT rate will increase from 20% to 22% - the highest level in Russia since 1992. 🔷 A radical tax reform for small businesses has been approved, affecting not only hundreds of thousands of entrepreneurs but also millions of their customers. 🔷 A law introducing a "technology levy" has been signed - a tax on equipment and electronics sold in Russian stores. However, even the usually reserved head of the Central Bank, Elvira Nabiullina, speaks bluntly - due to tariff and VAT increases in early 2026, the Russian economy will experience an acceleration of inflation. "In December, certain companies have already begun adjusting prices with this in mind, but the main impact is yet to come," she said. For now, the Kremlin is doing everything it can to sustain military spending, which it considers a priority. But the Russian economy may not be able to withstand the continuation of the hot phase of the war. Especially if sanctions are tightened further.

EXCESS LIQUIDITY MAKES 2027 ELECTION SPENDING A RISK TO THE ECONOMY - CBN Nigeria’s Central Bank Governor has warned that despite recent economic gains, the country faces significant risks to stability, especially with elections looming next year. Governor Yemi Cardoso told the National Economic Council Conference at the Presidential Villa that a large amount of liquidity remains in the system, and election year spending could destabilize the gains made by the Central Bank. He said past interventions, reaching ₦10.93 trillion, provided short term support but also created long-term distortions and higher costs of liquidity management. Cardoso also cautioned that monetary policy alone cannot stabilize the economy, highlighting food supply shocks, high energy costs, infrastructure deficits, and global trade tensions. He stressed the critical role of state and local governments, whose management of spending, deficits, and investment affects inflation, liquidity, and growth.

"The authorities have completely lost control over the economy," — Igor Lipsits Igor Lipsits, an exiled Russian economist, argues the Russian economy is not a true market economy and is in a precarious state, characterized by a war-driven "mobilization economy" that relies heavily on state spending and is depleting long-term resources. He points to rising poverty and a severe budget deficit, which the government is trying to address through tax increases, while official figures of growth are misleadingly high due to factors like panic-driven inventory accumulation rather than genuine productivity. Key points from Igor Lipsits on the Russian economy: •Misleading official figures: He states that reported GDP growth is misleading, inflated by military spending and the accumulation of inventories by businesses afraid of supply chain disruptions, not by actual economic progress. •"Mobilization economy": The economy is shifting towards a wartime footing, with resources directed towards the military-industrial complex. This erodes the framework of a free market and sustainability for other sectors over time. •Budget crisis: The government faces a massive budget deficit, with military spending consuming a huge portion of the budget while tax revenues are falling and reserves are being depleted. •Strained private sector: Businesses are being squeezed by tax hikes and a lack of investment. Many industries are operating at a loss, and the government is taxing profits that don't exist. •Economic inequality: While the middle class is struggling, a segment of the population, particularly families of soldiers and those in stagnant regions, are experiencing a form of economic benefit from the war through increased payouts. •Negative long-term outlook: He warns that the current path is unsustainable and could lead to a full-scale industrial and financial crisis, as the economy is "eating itself" by consuming its remaining pre-war reserves and exhausting its resources.

"The authorities have completely lost control over the economy," — Igor Lipsits Igor Lipsits, an exiled Russian economist, argues the Russian economy is not a true market economy and is in a precarious state, characterized by a war-driven "mobilization economy" that relies heavily on state spending and is depleting long-term resources. He points to rising poverty and a severe budget deficit, which the government is trying to address through tax increases, while official figures of growth are misleadingly high due to factors like panic-driven inventory accumulation rather than genuine productivity. Key points from Igor Lipsits on the Russian economy: •Misleading official figures: He states that reported GDP growth is misleading, inflated by military spending and the accumulation of inventories by businesses afraid of supply chain disruptions, not by actual economic progress. •"Mobilization economy": The economy is shifting towards a wartime footing, with resources directed towards the military-industrial complex. This erodes the framework of a free market and sustainability for other sectors over time. •Budget crisis: The government faces a massive budget deficit, with military spending consuming a huge portion of the budget while tax revenues are falling and reserves are being depleted. •Strained private sector: Businesses are being squeezed by tax hikes and a lack of investment. Many industries are operating at a loss, and the government is taxing profits that don't exist. •Economic inequality: While the middle class is struggling, a segment of the population, particularly families of soldiers and those in stagnant regions, are experiencing a form of economic benefit from the war through increased payouts. •Negative long-term outlook: He warns that the current path is unsustainable and could lead to a full-scale industrial and financial crisis, as the economy is "eating itself" by consuming its remaining pre-war reserves and exhausting its resources.

Maria Bartiromo just asked Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent a deceptively simple question — and the answer completely exposed Democrats on Capitol Hill. She asked whether Democrats even bothered to question him about economic growth during his latest Senate hearing. He said don’t want to talk about growth at all...because they can’t. Instead, they just want to “hoot and holler.” BESSENT: “Maria, they can’t compete on economic growth because the president’s plan is working, the Trump economy is delivering for the American people.” He then rattled off the numbers Democrats would rather ignore. “We have strong growth and inflation is, in fact, coming down. For the past three months, inflation is 2.1%, close to the federal reserve’s target, and a measure called true-flation, which is daily observations now is below 1%.” That’s when he twisted the knife. “So inflation down, strong growth, stocks at a record high, and the lowest crime rate in over 100 years.” “Democrats don’t want to talk about that, they want to hoot and holler.”
