Haiti’s Prime Minister Ariel Henry has been prevented from leaving the nation, as investigations continue into the assassination of former President Jovenel Moïse

Prosecutors are seeking charges against Henry… as they try and determine the PM’s links with a key suspect in the murder.

It comes as records that were released show that the two men had multiple phone calls just hours after the former president’s death.

Jovenel Moïse was shot dead at his home on July 7 after gunmen stormed his private residence… with his death sparking a political crisis in the country.

It’s been a difficult few months for Haiti after the country also experienced a huge earthquake about a month ago.

Prosecutors confirmed that Henry spoke twice to the suspect after Moise’s killing… with the suspect calling from teh murder location before fleeing from authorities.

He remains on the run.

This all follows authorities ramping up their efforts to arrest additional suspects, with police confirming that 44 people are being held in custody in connection with the plot.

RBA holds rates at 3.6%, shifting investor focus from property to potential stock market gains amid persistent inflation pressures.

The Reserve Bank of Australia has held interest rates at 3.6 percent, signalling a steady approach as inflation pressures persist and prompting investors to reassess their strategies in an uncertain climate.

The decision has shifted attention away from the property market, with experts suggesting the stock market may offer stronger opportunities, especially for those looking to outpace inflation over the long term.

We speak with Dale Gilham from Wealth Within about what the RBA’s call means for investors, why confidence in housing is changing, and what smarter financial choices look like in 2025.

U.S. retail sales weaken, raising concerns about consumer spending and economic resilience ahead of the holiday season.

Retail sales in the U.S. have unexpectedly weakened, raising new questions about consumer strength and the resilience of the economy. As Americans pull back on spending, analysts are watching closely to see whether this signals a broader shift toward caution in the lead-up to the holiday shopping period.

The slowdown has amplified uncertainty around the Federal Reserve’s next move on interest rates, as policymakers weigh mixed economic signals against cooling demand. With some categories falling sharply, economists warn that faltering retail activity could ripple into GDP forecasts and overall market confidence.

Brad Gastwirth from Circular Technologies joins us to break down which categories were hit hardest, why shoppers are becoming more value-conscious, and what this means for the economy heading into 2025.
