A recent report by PYMNTS Intelligence found that despite economic uncertainty, consumers are still willing to spend on certain goods and services, such as salon nail treatments and children's extracurricular activities. The report, based on a survey of over 2,200 US consumers, revealed that personal care products and services, as well as children's activities, show remarkable price resilience, with only 5.1% and 2.9% of consumers, respectively, saying they would stop spending on these categories if prices increased. In contrast, other categories, such as technology and digital devices, groceries, and dining out, are more sensitive to price increases, with nearly 52 million consumers saying they would abandon spending on these categories if prices increased by 10%. The report also found that financial security plays a significant role in consumer price elasticity, with paycheck-to-paycheck consumers showing greater sensitivity to price increases compared to financially secure consumers. Key takeaways from the report include the strong price resilience of personal care and children's activities, the significant impact of price doubling on consumer spending, and the importance of financial security in determining consumer price elasticity.

The Trump administration's actions have prompted European leaders to recognize the need for their own defense capabilities. In response, the European Commission has launched the "ReArm Europe Plan / Readiness 2030," aiming to mobilize €800 billion to strengthen the continent's defense by 2030. However, this goal is ambitious and faces significant challenges, including dependence on US technology and military infrastructure, limited stocks of precision munitions, and the need for high-quality military personnel. Developing a European architecture for modern war is crucial, but it's extremely challenging due to the complexity of detecting and identifying enemy targets, merging input from multiple sensors and platforms, and operating against enemy countermeasures. European countries will need to design and develop new technologies, which will inevitably encounter technical problems, requiring fixes and solutions. Ramping up production of weapon systems and munitions will also be difficult due to bottlenecks and choke points in global supply chains. European countries will need to recruit high-quality military personnel, but they face demographic decline, reduced societal support for military service, and intense competition from the private sector. To achieve their defense goals, European countries must ask themselves critical questions about their strategy, including what they want to achieve and how they intend to pursue deterrence. They will need to strengthen and develop a culture and institutions that enable them to design, elaborate, and execute their defense policies, requiring a paradigm shift in which defense policy is not dictated by finance ministers. Ultimately, rearming Europe will require a long-term commitment to technological innovation, industrial expansion, military recruitment, and strategic education. Without a comprehensive and pragmatic approach, the vision of an independent European defense force will remain an aspiration rather than a reality.

Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate has suggested offering homeless people a free bus ride to relocate to Byron Bay. The proposal comes after the council issued move-on notices to a group of homeless campers at Carey Park in Southport.

The City of Gold Coast, the state government, and support services are working towards a solution, with Housing Minister Sam O'Connor urging people to take up offered support, including hotel or motel accommodation and state-funded services.

A biotech start-up, Loyal, has made progress in developing an anti-aging pill for dogs. The FDA has certified the pill, LOY-002, as having a "reasonable expectation of effectiveness" in extending the lifespan of senior dogs. The pill is intended for dogs 10 years or older and weighing at least 14 pounds. While the FDA still needs to confirm the drug's safety and manufacturing process, Loyal's pill may soon become a reality, bringing hope to dog owners who want to extend their pets' lives. The company is conducting trials, and if approved, the pill would be a significant milestone in extending canine life expectancy without altering appetite or requiring significant lifestyle changes.
