He once said in a Facebook post "<a href="https://www.facebook.com/daveramsey/posts/most-millionaires-dont-drive-fancy-carsand-that-might-surprise-youthe-truth-is-m/1142002823955997/">Most millionaires</a> don't drive fancy cars—and that might surprise you. The truth is most millionaires live simple, disciplined lives. They don't waste money on luxury cars or big mansions. Instead, they follow a proven plan, avoid debt, and let their wealth grow over time."&nbsp;
The<a href="https://247wallst.com/investing/2024/05/08/8-times-dave-ramsey-nailed-it-with-savings-advice/"> 24/7 Wall Street</a> website also quoted Ramsey as saying, &#8220;A typical millionaire lives in a middle-class house, drives a two-year-old or older car, and buys blue jeans at Walmart.&#8221; It sounds more like Ramsey is describing your door neighbor than a millionaire, but his words are profound. Ramsey knows being worth over $1 million doesn't guarantee a lifetime of financial security, which is also why he's a proponent of developing<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/25/03/44292825/heres-how-you-can-earn-100-in-passive-income-by-investing-in-public-storage-stock"> passive income streams</a>.

<li>These five entrepreneurs are worth $223 billion –<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-homes-private-credit-fund"> they all believe in one platform that offers a 7-9% target yield with monthly dividends</a></li>
</ul>
Being worth $1 million may have allowed you to live a high lifestyle in the mid to late 20th century, but the relentless march of inflation means $1 million doesn't go nearly as far as it used to. The median American household income is $80,610 per year, according to the<a href="https://www.census.gov/library/publications/2024/demo/p60-282.html"> US Census</a>. So, theoretically, every $1 million you have will allow you to live like an average American for 12 years.
It would take $3 million to go over thirty years without working, but your money won't last nearly that long if you're buying luxury cars, dining out, and living an excessively lavish life. Remember, inflation is going to be climbing for every one of those years, so you don't have much choice about leading a relatively modest lifestyle if you want your money to last.
That assumes your net worth is all cash, which it likely isn't. Most Americans have a significant portion of their net worth tied up in their homes, and the<a href="https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MSPUS"> Federal Reserve</a> says the median home sale price for American homes was $419,200 in Q4 2024. However, that includes millions of properties in less expensive regions like the Plains, the South, and the Upper Midwest.
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
Median home prices over $1 million are becoming increasingly common in America's major metropolitan areas, especially on the coasts. So, you could be a typical homeowner in Los Angeles or San Francisco and have a net worth that approaches or exceeds $1 million. However, you wouldn't be super rich, and you would have no illusions about the fact that you were not super-rich.
You'd likely be living as frugally as possible to maximize your money. That would mean living in a regular, middle-class house, not a mansion. You would probably drive a slightly older used car and not buy the newest model year as soon as it came out. You might even shop at a Walmart. In other words, your life would sound a lot like the one Ramsey described.

Why Dave Ramsey Says Your "Typical Millionaire" May Look Just Like Your Next Door Neighbor

French MEP Raphael Glucksmann expressed gratitude for American sacrifices during World War II, amidst escalating tensions between the U.S. and EU.
What Happened: On Wednesday, Glucksmann took to X to share his views on the current U.S.-European relations. He referenced a statement made by the White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt, saying, &#8220;As the press secretary for this shameful Administration said: without your nation, France would have &#8216;spoken German.&#8217; In my case, it goes further: I would simply not be here if hundreds of thousands of young Americans had not landed on our beaches in Normandy.&#8221;

As the press secretary for this shameful Administration said: without your nation, France would have &quot;spoken German.&quot; In my case, it goes further: I would simply not be here if hundreds of thousands of young Americans had not landed on our beaches in Normandy. <a href="https://t.co/Yy4ELT7OuL">pic.twitter.com/Yy4ELT7OuL</a>
&mdash; Raphael Glucksmann (@rglucks1) <a href="https://twitter.com/rglucks1/status/1901749044268908874?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 17, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Glucksmann said in the thread on X that European gratitude to American World War II heroes is &#8220;eternal.&#8221; He compared the prevailing policies of the Trump administration toward Russia and Ukraine with the bravery of U.S. heroes during the war.
&#8220;The America of these heroes fought against tyrants, but it did not flatter them. It was the enemy of fascism, not the friend of Putin. It helped the resistance and didn&#8217;t attack Zelensky.&#8221;

Why It Matters: This post comes in the wake of Glucksmann&#8217;s controversial suggestion that the US should return the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/44351406/statue-of-liberty-should-be-returned-to-france-french-mep-suggests?utm_source=msn.com&amp;utm_campaign=partner_feed&amp;utm_medium=partner_feed&amp;utm_content=in">Statue of Liberty</a> to France, criticizing the US for aligning with authoritarian leaders and attacking scientific freedom.
The MEP said he was &#8220;petrified&#8221; by Trump&#8217;s &#8220;betrayal.&#8221; and that is why he suggested that the Statue of Liberty be taken back by France &#8220;symbolically.&#8221; Glucksmann termed it a &#8220;wake up call.&#8221;
The tensions between the US and EU have been escalating recently, with Trump threatening to <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44301836/trump-warns-of-200-tariff-on-french-champagne-and-eu-spirits-in-retaliation-to-europes-tariff-on-us-whiskey">impose a 200% tariff</a> on EU alcoholic products in response to a 50% tariff on US whiskey by the EU.

Some people pay Grant Cardone thousands of dollars for his coaching, but a 12-year-old kid recently got an entire crash course for free. Not only that, but Cardone donated to the kid's school after giving his impromptu sales coaching session.
However, the sales advice wasn't just for the kid. Cardone posted the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVtcrqJJYQs">video</a> on his YouTube channel, and it has practical advice that any sales professional can use.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Keep It Nice, Tight, and Concise</h2>
Cardone started by listening to the student's sales pitch and then proceeded to ask for his name. It turns out this was the third time he asked for the kid's name, and the real estate investor responded by saying that people don't remember things.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Are you rich?</a> Here&#8217;s what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.</li>
<li>If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-private-credit-fund">7-9% target yield with monthly dividends would you invest in it</a>?</li>
</ul>
It's a valuable nugget that receives more clarity after Cardone shifts into giving advice. He recommends keeping the pitch nice, tight, and concise. Not only do people forget things, but they are also busy. A strong hook can keep them interested in what you have to say and potentially lead to a sale.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Know How Much You Can Charge</h2>
This isn't your typical sales video, as Cardone decides to add some suspense to keep viewers engaged. Instead of telling the 12-year-old how much he will donate, Cardone turns it into a challenge.&nbsp;
He invites the student to write down how much he wants Cardone to give, and Cardone writes his own number. Cardone says he will only donate to the school if the student asks for less money than Cardone is willing to give. Asking for the full $20,000 the student is aiming for would have resulted in a rejection. The boy could have guaranteed money by asking for $1, but that would have been leaving money on the table.
Trending: The secret weapon in billionaire investor portfolios that you almost certainly don't own yet. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">See which asset class has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 (1995-2024) – and with near-zero correlation.</a>
In the end, the student asked for $500, and Cardone showed that he was willing to give $1,000. The real estate investor congratulated the student and said he would donate $1,000.
This part of the video demonstrates the value of knowing your customers and how much you can charge. You have to keep the customer in mind and consider how much they can afford when presenting your offer. Sometimes, it may require walking away from a customer who cannot afford your services, but that didn't take place in the video.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Always Get to the Ask</h2>
Every sales pitch eventually has to get to the ask. Practicing the pitch and reviewing some bullet points can help you navigate the presentation better and make an ask. It's worth knowing the different ways you can make an ask. Having multiple options can help you tailor your request to the potential client's budget, mentality, and other details you pick up during the conversation.

The sales pitch ends quickly after the prospect says yes. Instead of mudding the waters, provide a way for the prospect to make a payment. The boy tells Cardone about a QR code that he can use to make a payment. This is a great sales tactic since it shifts the conversation into making a payment.
Once you get someone to buy a product or service, it becomes much easier to sell them additional products and services in the future.
Cardone provided the 12-year-old with a mini masterclass on sales. Cardone expressed confidence in the kid's "killer instinct" and believes that he can become successful in sales. Teaching young kids about sales and real-life skills, just as Cardone did, can set them up for better careers in the future.

Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) on Tuesday launched Verified Pools, a new initiative designed to improve transparency and security in decentralized finance (DeFi) liquidity pools.
The <a href="https://www.coinbase.com/en-gb/blog/the-future-of-onchain-Liquidity-is-here-via-coinbase-verified-pools">move </a>comes amid growing scrutiny of risks associated with DeFi platforms, particularly regarding opaque liquidity sources and counterparty risks.
The product, available to users in the U.S., Singapore, the Netherlands, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands and Channel Islands, introduces a verification system that integrates identity checks through Coinbase Verifications.
The system aims to reduce the uncertainty associated with who is providing liquidity in these pools, a common issue within DeFi ecosystems.
Verified Pools uses the Uniswap v4 protocol and operates on Coinbase&#8217;s Base layer-2 network, which focuses on reducing transaction fees and improving transaction speeds. 
Coinbase has also partnered with risk modeling firm Gauntlet to help optimize the liquidity pool configurations.
For institutional participants, Verified Pools offers features such as concentrated liquidity strategies, restricted access via verified credentials, and non-custodial asset management through Coinbase&#8217;s Prime Onchain Wallet. Institutions can also connect via API for liquidity provisioning.

Retail users are provided with simplified access to liquidity pools through Coinbase Wallet. 
The system allows direct interaction with pools while offering verified liquidity sources aimed at reducing potential risks. 
Users maintain full control over their assets while participating in onchain trading.
"Verified Pools is the next step in Coinbase's commitment to advancing the onchain ecosystem," the company stated, indicating plans to expand, though no specific schedule has been set.
Despite the new offering, Verified Pools enters a competitive market where DeFi participants already have access to a variety of liquidity solutions on decentralized exchanges. 
Coinbase's approach highlights the increasing trend of incorporating identity verification into DeFi protocols, as regulators and users push for higher security and transparency standards.
Coinbase said the new product is part of its broader strategy to expand onchain adoption, but stopped short of offering specifics on future geographic expansions or additional features.
The company has stated that Verified Pools will continue to evolve, with further developments expected depending on user demand and regulatory requirements across different markets.

Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) took another hit on Tuesday when NVIDIA Corp.

What To Know: Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang announced the GM partnership, which will include robotics, in-vehicle hardware for advanced driver-assistance systems and in-cabin safety driving experiences, at the GPU Technology Conference (GTC) on Tuesday afternoon.
&#8220;The time for autonomous vehicles has arrived," Huang said.&nbsp;

Tesla said it will begin its first robotaxi service in Austin starting in June 2025 using Tesla-owned vehicles equipped with an unsupervised version of the company&#8217;s Full Self-Driving (FSD) software. 
The Nvidia/GM partnership brings more competition for Tesla in the robotaxi space which already includes Alphabet Inc.‘s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Waymo and Amazon.com Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Zoox. 
Tesla shares have fallen nearly 50% year-to-date as the company faces declining sales, increased competition and political controversy.&nbsp;
Deepwater Asset Management managing partner Gene Munster told Benzinga that he remains bullish on Tesla.&nbsp;
"I&#8217;m still positive for the long term. Believe they&#8217;re the best positioned company for physical AI. Jensen talked about Physical AI today at the NVDA keynote," Munster said.&nbsp;
Huang reviewed the development of AI as a timeline and discussed how the focus shifted from generative AI to agentic AI and now to physical AI, or robotics. 
&#8220;Artificial intelligence has made extraordinary progress,&#8221; Huang said and explained the next phase is physical AI. 
&#8220;A new era of AI we call physical AI," he said.

Tesla Takes Another Hit With Nvidia, GM Self-Driving Partnership

A newlywed couple called into "<a href="https://youtu.be/rMk7CKwJ8OM?si=uv9XNqRaExFM6ju0">The Dave Ramsey Show</a>" hoping for financial advice, but what they got was a brutal reality check. Their total debt? Just shy of $1 million. The breakdown was staggering: $335,000 in student loans, $136,000 in credit card debt, $44,000 in personal loans, $35,000 in car loans, and a $210,000 mortgage.
Dave Ramsey didn't waste any time getting to the heart of the problem. "You have $300,000 of credit cards and personal loans?" he asked, clearly stunned. Then came another gut punch: "Why does he, at 29 years old, run up a hundred grand in credit card debt?" The woman explained that her husband, 32, had made poor financial decisions, assuming he'd be able to pay it off over time. Spoiler: He didn't.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">"You're Scared, and You Should Be"</h2>
Reality was sinking in fast. Ramsey zeroed in on what they were feeling: "You're scared, and you should be. You're disgusted, and you should be." This wasn't just about numbers on a spreadsheet—this was about their future, their marriage, and whether they could pull themselves out of the financial mess they had created.
And while $1 million in debt sounds extreme, their situation isn't as far from the average American household as some might think. According to the <a href="https://www.newyorkfed.org/microeconomics/hhdc">Federal Reserve</a>, total household debt in the U.S. hit an all-time high of $18.036 trillion as of Q4 2024, with the average household carrying $105,056 in debt. Sure, this couple was in the deep end, but <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42746966/debt-and-broke-are-the-norm-says-dave-ramsey-explains-why-normal-isnt-working-for-most-americans-and-how-to-take-control-of-your-money">plenty of people are drowning</a>.
Trending: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $250 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">"I'm Getting Ready to Destroy Your Life As You Know It"</h2>
Despite earning $230,000 per year, their spending had completely outpaced their income. Ramsey put it bluntly: "You've been living at about 10x where you're gonna get to live for the next three years."
Then came the reality check: "I'm getting ready to destroy your life as you know it." That meant no vacations, no eating out, no unnecessary spending of any kind. "You're not gonna see the inside of a restaurant unless it's your extra job or you're waiting on some of the people you work with during the day."
But Ramsey made it clear—this wasn't just a budgeting problem: "This is not a math problem. The math problem is the symptom. The problem is what's going on inside of you guys." Their spending habits weren't just about bad decisions; they were rooted in something deeper.
Trending: Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Road to Financial Survival</h2>
The couple mentioned they had enrolled in a credit card debt relief program, hoping it would ease their financial burden. Ramsey shut that down immediately, calling it a mistake. "The administrative layer is really, really, really pitiful. They're incompetent." His advice? Get out of the program, sell their rental property, and throw the $90,000 in equity straight at their debt.
He didn't sugarcoat the reality of what they were about to face. "You're gonna be living beans and rice, rice and beans. Your friends are gonna think you've lost your mind, and your mother's gonna think you need counseling."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Wake-Up Call for Anyone in Debt</h2>
This couple didn't just need a budget tweak—they needed a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/42026823/this-is-how-you-get-wealthy-dave-ramsey-details-how-one-move-could-make-you-5-million-by-retirement">full-blown financial intervention</a>. Ramsey drove the point home: "I'm gonna pinch the lifestyle out of you. And it's gonna change your life for the better."

For anyone sitting on a mountain of debt, the takeaway is simple. Change won't be easy, but it's necessary. The good news? No situation is truly hopeless. Financial experts recommend several ways to get back on track:
<ul>
<li>Consulting a financial advisor to develop a structured repayment plan</li>
<li>Using the debt snowball or avalanche method to tackle balances strategically</li>
<li>Cutting unnecessary expenses to free up cash for aggressive debt repayment</li>
<li>Building an emergency fund to avoid future reliance on credit</li>
</ul>
The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">road to financial stability</a> requires discipline, but with the right approach, it's possible to turn things around—even if it means embarking on a beans and rice diet for a little while.

</ul>
Kiyosaki's main message is that many people enter the market without a clear understanding of how it works. They may follow advice from friends, social media, or financial news without doing their own research. According to Kiyosaki, this approach is more like gambling than investing, which can lead to significant financial losses.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Education Matters in Investing</h2>
Kiyosaki's philosophy centers on the idea that financial success comes from knowledge and strategy, not luck. His company, Rich Dad, emphasizes the importance of understanding different asset classes and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing">investment strategies</a> before diving in.&nbsp;
According to the Rich Dad blog, there are five major asset classes to take into consideration when investing:&nbsp;
<ol>
<li>Real estate</li>
<li>Commodities</li>
<li>Business</li>
<li>Paper assets (like stocks and bonds)</li>
<li>Cryptocurrency</li>
</ol>
Trending: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $250 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
Kiyosaki encourages investors to focus on the types of assets they are most interested in and start educating themselves more on that area. For example, stock market investors should learn more about specific methods of investing.&nbsp;
"The interesting thing is that most people only know of one way to invest in the stock market, so they never ask the question of how they should do it," the Rich Dad blog says.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Common Pitfalls of Investing Without Knowledge</h2>
Kiyosaki's warning reflects the reality that many investors make decisions based on market trends or emotional impulses rather than sound financial principles. According to a Magnify Money <a href="https://www.magnifymoney.com/news/emotional-investing/">study</a>, 66% of investors have made impulsive or emotion-based investing decisions that they later regretted.&nbsp;
The study also reports that 58% of investors agree their portfolio performs better when they leave emotions out of the equation; however, nearly half say that it's difficult to keep emotions at bay when investing.&nbsp;

Some common investment mistakes include:
<ul>
<li>Chasing hot stocks – Investing in companies because they are popular rather than because of their fundamentals.</li>
<li>Following bad advice – Acting on tips from friends or influencers without independent research.</li>
<li>Overdiversification – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40605821/charlie-munger-said-you-dont-need-to-own-a-lot-of-things-in-order-to-get-rich-but-believed-you-a">Spreading investments too thinly</a> without a clear strategy, which can dilute potential returns.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Key Takeaway: Knowledge Before Action</h2>
Kiyosaki's message is straightforward: education comes before investing. Understanding how markets work and having a clear investment strategy can help prevent costly mistakes. For investors, this means taking the time to study asset classes, market trends, and financial strategies before putting money on the line.
As Kiyosaki puts it, &#8220;Learn first. Then invest. That's how the rich get richer.&#8221;

Nvidia , Inc. (NVDA) today experienced a Power Inflow, a significant event for those who follow where smart money goes and value order flow analytics in their trading decisions.&nbsp;
Today, at 10:11 AM on March 18th, a significant trading signal occurred for Nvidia, Inc. (NVDA) as it demonstrated a Power Inflow at a price of $115.07. This indicator is crucial for traders who want to know directionally where institutions and so-called "smart money" moves in the market.

Signal description
Order flow analytics, aka transaction or market flow analysis, separate and study both the retail and institutional volume rate of orders (flow). It involves analyzing the flow of buy and sell orders, along with size, timing, and other associated characteristics and patterns, to gain insights and make more informed trading decisions. This particular indicator is interpreted as a bullish signal by active traders.&nbsp;
The Power Inflow occurs within the first two hours of the market open and generally signals the trend that helps gauge the stock&#8217;s overall direction, powered by institutional activity in the stock, for the remainder of the day.&nbsp;
By incorporating order flow analytics into their trading strategies, market participants can better interpret market conditions, identify trading opportunities, and potentially improve their trading performance. But let's not forget that while watching smart money flow can provide valuable insights, it is crucial to incorporate effective risk management strategies to protect capital and mitigate potential losses. Employing a consistent and effective risk management plan helps traders navigate the uncertainties of the market in a more controlled and calculated manner, increasing the likelihood of long-term success

<a href="https://europeancapitalinsights.substack.com/p/german-parliament-backs-changes-to?r=3nmatg">Germany's parliament backed </a>on Tuesday a plan to increase government borrowing limits as the largest economy in Europe looks to bolster its defense and infrastructure spending.
The Bundestag approved <a href="https://x.com/eurocapinsights">several amendments</a> to the country&#8217;s constitution, allowing future federal and state governments to take on more debt. This will enable higher defense spend and €500 billion for infrastructure to bolster the European Union's (EU) military capabilities.
German Chancellor-in-waiting Friedrich Merz proposed defense spending as the EU grows increasingly concerned about the US commitment to Europe's security. President Donald Trump <a href="https://x.com/eurocapinsights/status/1902097767855796426">has criticized European</a> nations for not meeting their NATO commitment of <a href="https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/topics_49198.htm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">2% of GDP</a> per year by 2024, threatening to reassess the US commitment to the military alliance.
&#8220;We have for at least a decade felt a false sense of security,&#8221; Merz <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/merz-sees-new-era-european-defence-with-german-spending-surge-2025-03-18/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">told</a> the Bundestag lower house of parliament on Tuesday. "The post-war peace dividend had been used up long ago and a total rebuilding of Germany&#8217;s defense capabilities was needed," he added.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><a href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc4695a40-182f-47ee-a596-893066a6c178_622x387.png" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc4695a40-182f-47ee-a596-893066a6c178_622x387.png" alt="" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Source:<a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://x.com/MichaelAArouet/status/1901544764081680698"> X</a></figcaption></figure>
In an interview with public broadcaster ARD on Sunday, Merz <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://thedefensepost.com/2025/03/18/germany-defense-spending/">said </a>the "situation has worsened in recent weeks." He cited Trump's overtures to Russia to end the Ukraine war and his wavering commitment to NATO.
"That is why we have to act fast," Merz said. He has urged an amendment to the constitution to exempt defense spending beyond <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://europeancapitalinsights.substack.com/p/europes-ambitious-defense-plans-face">1% of GDP.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">German Decisions Push European Markets Higher</h2>
The pan-European Stoxx 600 closed 0.61% higher on Tuesday, with most sectors and all major bourses in positive territory. Frankfurt's DAX German corporates Rheinmetall, Bayer, ThyssenKrupp, and Continental traded higher on the news.
DAX is up 16.76% year-to-date, outperforming its American counterpart, the S&amp;P 500, by over 20%.
<a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.dw.com/en/germanys-bundestag-votes-in-favor-of-reforming-debt-brake/live-71956815">Some 513 parliamentary </a>members voted in favor of the constitutional changes, while 207 voted against them. Over two-thirds of parliament members needed to vote to change Germany&#8217;s basic law to soften the debt brake.
The decision to increase public investment and relax constitutionally enshrined borrowing rules to allow higher defense spending "sends a very clear message to Europe that Germany is determined to invest massively in defense,&#8221; EU Commission President <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.dw.com/en/ursula-von-der-leyen/t-70279537">Ursula von der Leyen</a> said.
The center-right bloc of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and Christian Social Union (CSU), along with the center-left Social Democrats (SPD) and the Greens, supported the package.
The Bundesrat, a body representing the country's states, will meet on Friday to vote on the law. Only then will it become enshrined in Germany's constitution.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">German Economy Constrained by ‘Debt Brake'</h2>
German government spending has <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://europeancapitalinsights.substack.com/p/europes-ambitious-defense-plans-face">historically been constrained</a> by its "debt brake." The limits have restricted new annual borrowing to 0.35% of total GDP. If Germany amends its constitution, it will allow the government to borrow <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.euronews.com/business/2025/03/05/germany-to-ease-government-debt-limits-to-boost-economy-and-defence-spending">over </a>€1<a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.euronews.com/business/2025/03/05/germany-to-ease-government-debt-limits-to-boost-economy-and-defence-spending"> trillion </a>over the next decade.
"The next federal government will have little choice but to make massive public investments in defense capabilities," Deutsche Bank Research Institute <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.dbresearch.com/PROD/RI-PROD/HIDDEn_GLOBAL_SEARCH.alias">wrote</a> on March 13. "This effort cannot be financed within the confines of the debt brake without impacting other core government tasks and thus risking public support."
Merz's CDU and its sister party won the election with 28.6% of the national vote on February 23. He has pledged to form a coalition government in April.
<a href="https://x.com/eurocapinsights/status/1902099051933278522">The economic starting </a>point for the next federal government is extremely challenging, Deutsche Bank Research Institute said. "If the status quo were to persist, German economic growth would likely remain well below 1% per year until the end of the decade."

On Sunday, Germany&#8217;s parliamentary budget committee approved plans to increase state borrowing to bolster defense and revive growth massively.
The committee convened for an extraordinary session and backed the plans &#8212; agreed on Friday between the conservative CDU/CSU, the Social Democrats, and the Greens &#8212; sending them to parliament for adoption.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">German Economic Sentiment Surges on Fiscal Policy</h2>
Ahead of parliament's vote, German economic sentiment expectation surged to its highest level since January 2023.
The ZEW Indicator of Economic Sentiment for March rose to 51.6 points or 25.6 points above the previous month's reading. The last time the indicator increased this substantially was in January 2023.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><a href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4183db1a-8a50-4567-afc8-679f55547faa_670x385.png" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4183db1a-8a50-4567-afc8-679f55547faa_670x385.png" alt="" /></a></figure>

"The brighter mood is likely due to positive signals regarding the future German fiscal policy," including the multi-billion-euro financial package for the federal budget, ZEW President Achim Wambach said on Tuesday. "Prospects for metal and steel manufacturers as well as the mechanical engineering sector have improved"
On March 12, the S&amp;P Global Business Outlook survey showed a slight improvement in the mood among Germany&#8217;s businesses during the first quarter of the year. "Optimism has returned to the country&#8217;s manufacturers," S&amp;P Global said.
"Still, growth forecasts were subdued, amid a backdrop of geopolitical tensions," S&amp;P Global said. Firms predicted sustained strong cost pressures and, as such, cited plans to reduce workforces amid concerns over competitiveness, it said.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Germany Faces Strong Headwinds Despite Fiscal Change</h2>
Germany still faces considerable headwinds. These include, among other things, an aging population, high energy costs, weak productivity, and China&#8217;s emergence as an industrial rival.
Gross domestic product contracted 0.2% in 2024, according to data from the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis). Investments fell by 2.7% in the 4th quarter, compared with the same quarter a year earlier, Destatis said.
Analysts have questioned Germany's commitment to fiscal reform and defense spending. They point to the €100 billion of the €500 billion allocated to climate change rather than increasing power supplies.
"Instead of reopening its nuclear power plants, Germany will vote today to spend another €100 billion for green fairytale projects," Michael A. Arouet, an economy, politics and investing analyst, wrote on <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://x.com/MichaelAArouet/status/1893913497299288311">X</a>. "One could not make it up."
After the parliament's decision, Arouet wrote: "RIP German industry."
