They're all part of a much larger transformation taking place beneath the surface of the global economy.  &amp;nbsp;  From rebuilding supply chains and defence capabilities to massive investments in AI infrastructure and energy security, governments and corporations around the world are entering a new era of capital spending. At the same time, investors are beginning to question long-held assumptions about U.S. exceptionalism as international markets take on a greater leadership role.  &amp;nbsp;  Rob and Tyler discuss:   Why &quot;The Great Rebuilding&quot; could define the next decade  Kevin Warsh, the Federal Reserve and the outlook for interest rates  Why inflation may remain more persistent than investors expect  The challenge to U.S. market leadership  Korea, Taiwan and the resurgence of international markets  AI's infrastructure boom and what investors are missing  Canada's economic outlook and why productivity still matters  What today's headlines really mean for long-term portfolios   &amp;nbsp;  Every week brings another crisis, another tariff, another geopolitical shock. Yet markets keep moving higher. Why? Because the biggest story isn't the latest headline. It's the rebuilding of the global economy happening underneath it all.  &amp;nbsp;  Thanks for listening.  &amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;  Time Stamps  01:07  Welcome back to Global Thinking  02:33  The first half of the year in two words: The Great Rebuilding  05:15  Kevin Warsh, the Fed and why higher-for-longer rates may be here to stay  09:10  Inflation isn't dead.
