Part 2

In this show you get two hours on money, AI scams, the law and some of the strangest stories of the week. The lineup covered the markets, stablecoins, voice-cloning fraud, domestic worker rights and Themba Robin’s latest plans.

TD Markets trading educators Tshepo Makaodi and Ashley Reeve break down where the markets stand:

The US Federal Reserve raised interest rates again on 16 September 2026.

The rand has weakened from R15.92 to R16.60 against the US dollar.

Oil has slipped back below $100 a barrel, and they explain why that doesn’t change the fuel price overnight.

Bitcoin has strengthened through the second half of 2026.

They also explain stablecoins and the future of money. You’ll hear what a stablecoin is, how USD-backed stablecoins give South Africans another way to hold and move dollar value, whether they could replace the rand or threaten the banks, and whether they protect you from inflation.
