Kara Nortman '93 is co-founder of Los Angeles's professional women's soccer team Angel City. In this episode, Kara recounts her evolution from leading LA's largest venture capital firm, Upfront Ventures, to co-founding Angel City alongside partners Natalie Portman and Julie Uhrman in 2020. Since then, Angel City has not only garnered significant fan followings and profitability (quadrupling its revenue projections in year one), but also developed a profit model to enable community and philanthropic impact. Using Angel City as a model, Kara has since broadened her focus--leading a $150M raise to form Monarch Collective, whose mission is to invest in women's teams, sports, and rights across the world. Finally, Kara describes her own Harvard-Westlake story and personal connections to the team—noting that three of Angel City's stars, including team captain Ali Riley '06, Gisele Thompson '24, and Alyssa Thompson '23 are all HW alumnae. Kara references Jeanne Huybrechts and Barb Welch of Harvard-Westlake, as well as Alan Blinder and Lori Dauphiny of Princeton University, as profound educational influences.

Stocks finish higher despite briefly turning negative in midday trading. G Squared's Victoria Green and JPMorgan's Phil Camporeale discuss the market action. Former Fed officials Randal Quarles and Alan Blinder weigh in on this week's rate hike and why Blinder called the 25bp move a “mistake.” Plus, Evercore's Mark Mahaney on why this time is different for TikTok and regulation as the CEO gets grilled on the hill. Block shares dropped nearly 15% after a scathing short seller report: SVB Moffetrnathanson's Lisa Ellis and Empire Financial Research's Herb Greenberg discuss what to make of the claims. 

Princeton University's Alan Blinder is one of the most prominent economists to have expressed optimism that the Federal Reserve can engineer a so-called “soft landing” for the US economy—taming inflation without triggering a recession. But Blinder, who served in the 1990s as a vice chair of the Fed and a member of the president's Council of Economic Advisers, explains on this episode of What Goes Up why he's toned down his assessment. A big reason is the change in the way the Bureau of Labor Statistics adjusts inflation data for seasonal factors, he says. The result is that, while inflation moderated in the second half of 2022, it didn't cool off as quickly as previous data indicated. Blinder says that means there's reason to expect more rate hikes from the Fed. “I think they still have a chance” at a soft landing, he concludes, “but it's a tougher chance than it was.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The one and only Alan S. Blinder, former Vice Chair of the Federal Reserve and member of President Clinton's Council of Economic Advisors, shines a brilliant light on some of today's hottest economic topics — including the politicization of economic policy, the criminality of cryptocurrency, the likelihood of a soft landing, the prospect of a national digital currency, and more.

Olivier Blanchard, former chief economist at the IMF, says the French election isn't a big short-term risk and the lack of informed economics debate is an issue. Prior to that, Jason Furman, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute, says economic problems have been increasing since the 1950s. Alice Rivlin, a former vice chair of the Fed, says the U.S. political system's so polarized that the country isn't getting anything done.
