Rick Rieder, CIO of global fixed income at BlackRock, reacts to the July US employment report, calling it "unremarkable," and says the economy is going through a "productivity revolution." Speaking on "Bloomberg Open Interest," Rieder also discusses the outlook for Federal Reserve monetary policy and how the company is currently investing in the fixed income market.

The July jobs report made one thing very clear: Policymakers and investors can't take their eye off the ball. Going into Friday's data release, the consensus was that the labor market was stable and had gained ground since last year's stalled-out environment. It proved to be a bit of a similar pattern to recent years, particularly 2025, when July payrolls disappointed and the BLS lowered the previous two months' estimated payroll gains by 258,000.

Digitalbox PLC (AIM:DBOX, FRA:RLXB) CEO James Carter spoke with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's new Creator Network strategy, aimed at accelerating video production, broadening audience reach and supporting future revenue growth. The initiative has already recruited around 200 creators across brands including The Tab, with Digitalbox targeting roughly 500 original videos a month as it diversifies beyond its traditional text-based publishing model. Carter said the expanded output will help the company engage audiences across more platforms and open up further direct advertising opportunities, particularly in the student and entertainment markets. He also addressed how Digitalbox is adapting to shifting social media algorithms, including Meta's push towards original creator content. Despite audience headwinds from the platform changes, Carter said the advertising market remains strong, with advertising returns up 20% year-on-year. Carter highlighted the growing importance of on-platform revenue, which now accounts for around 20% of the company's total — a shift he said increased video output should accelerate. Looking ahead, Carter pointed to audience reach as a key metric: Digitalbox has around 30 million followers across TikTok, Instagram and Facebook, with total reach of roughly 600 million over six months. As he put it, "It could well be transformational for the business."
