☆ Here's how investors are trading France’s political chaos
▼ + stars: | 2024-12-04 | by ( Ganesh Rao | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

The French government is on the brink of collapse and investors are gearing up for a volatile week of trading, with some eyeing opportunities amid the chaos. The Oat - Bund spread, as the two respective sovereign bonds are known, shows the negative sentiment investors have toward French government bonds relative to German government bonds. It comes after Barnier said he would force through cuts in social security, to lower the government's 6% budget deficit, without a vote. If the recently appointed government is toppled, Barnier would be the shortest-serving prime minister in France's modern history. "They're agents of chaos for little political end," Everett added.

A new fund hitting the market on Tuesday has a phrase in the title that ETF investors are about to become very familiar with: private credit. There is now a few trillion dollars in private credit assets under management, but the total addressable market for the asset class in the U.S. could top $30 trillion , according to consulting firm McKinsey & Company. The use of collateralized debt obligations, which pool a bunch of private credit loans together, is one approach. "The big hurdle to clear in investing in private credit in an ETF is liquidity. One high profile example is the proposed SPDR SSGA Apollo IG Public & Private Credit ETF, a collaboration between ETF giant State Street and Apollo's private credit expertise.

☆ Investors Punish France Over Budget Turmoil
▼ + stars: | 2024-12-02 | by ( Liz Alderman | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

France tumbled further into financial uncertainty on Monday as the government teetered on the brink of collapse, prompting investors to sell French stocks and bonds, which has sent the country’s borrowing costs soaring. A political showdown over France’s budget could lead to the ouster of the prime minister, Michel Barnier, as early as Wednesday, after he pushed the measure through the lower house of Parliament on Monday without a vote. Mr. Barnier’s forced departure would leave the government rudderless, raising questions about the ability of President Emmanuel Macron to manage the fallout. France has become one of the most financially troubled countries in Europe, with an outsize debt and deficit that have grown rapidly in recent months. But efforts by Mr. Barnier’s fragile government coalition to address the problem, with a budget bill seeking 60 billion euros in savings for 2025, have become snared in a political minefield.

☆ Wisconsin Judge Strikes Down Limits on Public Sector Unions
▼ + stars: | 2024-12-02 | by ( Mitch Smith | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

A Wisconsin judge on Monday struck down portions of a 2011 law that stripped most government workers in the state of collective bargaining rights and set off fierce demonstrations. The ruling by Judge Jacob Frost of the Dane County Circuit Court is certain to be appealed. “Restoring union freedoms to Wisconsin workers will strengthen Wisconsin’s middle class, lift up the voices of workers and lead to better public services for our communities,” said Stephanie Bloomingdale, the president of the Wisconsin AFL-CIO, in a statement. Republicans passed the law, known as Act 10, shortly after winning control of state government in the 2010 elections, arguing that limits on public sector unions were necessary to balance the budget and attract business investments. They advanced the legislation despite large-scale protests at the State Capitol in Madison and an attempt by Democratic lawmakers to scuttle the vote by fleeing to Illinois.

Some Hispanic men are defining college differently. “Latino men are checking out because they are the labor force for a lot of these jobs that require manual labor and blue-collar workers,” Ponjuán said. Hispanic men work in some of the most dangerous jobs, mostly in transportation and construction, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Like Garza, some Hispanic men are using their blue-collar skills to start their own contracting, landscaping, restaurant and other businesses. But one of this year’s election takeaways is that those gains weren’t enough to overcome frustrations, especially among Latino men, about high costs and the impact on their families.

☆ The way Americans pay for higher education is changing

Education experts told BI these shifts could force colleges to change the way they charge students. Still, steep college costs remain a barrier for many seeking a higher education. Additionally, institutional grant aid for all students rose by $19.6 billion over the same timeframe, accounting for 52% of all grant aid in the 2023-24 school year. Since state funding shifts, there are steps colleges can take to make higher education more affordable for its students. However, it's unclear where federal investment for higher education will sit under President-elect Donald Trump, placing the focus on colleges to consider ways to make a four-year degree affordable.

☆ Volkswagen workers prepare to strike across Germany

London CNN —Tens of thousands of Volkswagen workers will participate Monday in strikes at plants across Germany, labor union IG Metall said, marking the largest walkouts at the carmaker’s domestic operations since 2018. “If necessary, this will become the toughest wage dispute Volkswagen has ever seen,” IG Metall’s chief negotiator Thorsten Groeger said in a statement Sunday. The walkouts will be the first large-scale strikes that Volkswagen has faced since 2018, according to IG Metall, when 50,000 workers idled plants over pay. Indefinite strikes could also be called as a last resort, but only after members have been consulted again, IG Metall said. Volkswagen has said it may need to close plants in Germany for the first time in its 87-year history.
