In this video, I discuss the Senate's vote to move forward with the Genius Stablecoin Act, emphasizing that while the bill hasn't passed yet, it's a significant step for crypto regulation. I highlight the potential for massive liquidity and capital influx into the crypto market, especially with only 1.1% of the US dollar currently tokenized as stablecoins. I explore the broader macroeconomic landscape, discussing the recent market capitulation and my optimism about an upcoming altcoin bull market. I analyze charts for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Cardano, pointing out key resistance levels and potential breakout points. My main thesis is that we're in a transitional period where altcoins have not yet had their bull market, but are positioned for a potentially explosive growth phase, driven by regulatory clarity, economic shifts, and technical chart patterns.

Explore Woolworths' remarkable return to profitability amid rising costs. Delve into the implications for pricing strategies, consumer sentiment, and market competition.

Woolworths swung back to profit for the first half of the financial year, compared to a $781million statutory loss the year before. Its gross food margin was squeezed because of higher meat costs, more discounts and customers buying cheaper items. Food sales would have been higher if not for strikes at its distribution centres, costing the business $240 million. Woolworths will cut $400 million in costs, meaning some office jobs will go. And like Coles, it's also slashing the number of products it sells.  Retail analyst George Boubouras from K2 Asset Management says both supermarkets will expand their homebrand range to maintain margins and deliver for their shareholders. He says even though margins are falling, they're not falling fast enough and are still double those of supermarkets in the EU and UK.  Woolies chief executive Amanda Bardwell dismissed the claim saying "every country has a different economic setting, different wage rates" and she didn't want to make direct comparisons to global benchmarks.  Together, Woolworths and Coles account for about 67 per cent of supermarket retail sales. Australia's consumer watchdog has been investigating that market power, and is due to deliver its final report to the federal government by February 28.  The ACCC has also taken Coles and Woolworths to court, alleging the pair engaged in misleading and deceptive practices by inflating the prices of hundreds of grocery products before marking them as discounted. Food and non-alcoholic drink prices were one of the biggest contributors to inflation in the year to January, up 3.3 per cent, driven by higher costs for fruit, vegetables, meat and seafood.  In the same period, headline inflation remained steady at 2.5 per cent.  Former ACCC boss Graeme Samuel says he's yet to see evidence of the supermarkets price gouging.  He says competition is the ultimate solution to keep prices competitive. He thinks Aldi, IGAs, Costco and Amazon are giving Australians greater choice.  Rhiana Whitson reports.
