  • Today,

  • President Zelensky says the agreement signed with the US on rare earth minerals is a truly equal partnership.

  • But how much difference will it make?

  • There's an adage in the mining business that rare earth minerals are actually not that rare.

  • The rare part is the ability to process those minerals and make a usable end product out of those.

  • The boss of Apple says US tariffs could cost the tech giant almost a billion dollars this quarter.

  • We'll have more on that.

  • We'll also hear about the impact they're having on small businesses.

  • And the world's drinking less wine than it has for 20 years.

  • So how is the Australian wine industry bearing up?

  • Don't forget, we love it when you get involved.
