Podcasts about Backdrop

Sam Burns is still cautious around a potential market drop, seeing an “extremely negative” policy backdrop and continued uncertainty around trade and earnings. He notes that tariff impacts to economic data haven't shown up in the data yet. He also reacts to the FOMC decision and says the Fed “can't save” markets should things go south. Looking for defensive areas, he likes utilities, some financials, and some consumer staples.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Disability Series, #4 of 4. The Tuskegee Syphilis Study was an ethically problematic, to say the least, medical research project conducted in Alabama. Officially titled “The Effects of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male,” this government-sponsored research project was conducted by the United States Public Health Service in Macon County, Alabama, between 1932 and 1972. For four decades, researchers observed the progression of untreated syphilis in approximately 399 African American men without their informed consent. Many of the men thought they were being treated for “bad blood,” which had a variety of connotations. They were not aware that they were being actively blocked from receiving effective treatment, even after penicillin became the recognized standard of care for syphilis in the 1940s. Rather than viewing the study as an isolated event, we'll see how the Tuskegee study fits into a broader framework of American medical and disability history and racial discrimination.  Select Bibliography Jones, James H. Bad Blood: The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment. (Simon and Schuster, 1993).  Lederer, Susan. “Experimentation on Human Beings.” OAH Magazine of History, Vol. 19, No. 5, Medicine and History (Sep., 2005), pp. 20-22.

As market turmoil continues, our global economists give their view on the ramifications of the Trump administration's tariffs, and how central banks across key regions might react.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley. ---- Transcript -----Seth Carpenter: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Seth Carpenter, Morgan Stanley's, Global Chief Economist, and today we're going to be talking tariffs and what they mean for the global economy.It's Monday, April 7th at 10am in New York.Jens Eisenschmidt: It's 4pm in Frankfurt. Chetan Ahya: And it's 10pm in Hong Kong. Seth Carpenter: And so, I'm here with our global economists from around the world: Mike Gapen, Chief U.S. Economist, Chetan Ahya, our Chief Asia Economist, and Jens Eisenschmidt, our Chief Europe Economist. So, let's jump into it. Let me go around first and ask each of you, what is the top question that you are getting from investors around the world?Chetan?Chetan Ahya: Tariffs.Seth Carpenter: Jens?Jens Eisenschmidt: Tariffs.Seth Carpenter: Mike?Michael Gapen: Tariffs.Seth Carpenter: All right. Well, that seems clear. Before we get into the likely effects of the tariffs, maybe each of you could just sketch for me where you were before tariffs were announced. Chetan, let me start with you. What was your outlook for the Chinese economy before the latest round of tariff announcements?Chetan Ahya: Well Seth, working with our U.S. public policy team, we were already assuming a 15-percentage point increase on tariffs on imports from China. And China also was going through some domestic challenges in terms of high levels of debt, excess capacities, and deflation. And so, combining both the factors, we were assuming China's growth will slow on Q4 by Q4 basis last year – from 5.4 percent to close to 4 percent this year.Jens, what about Europe? Before these broad-based tariffs, how were you thinking about the European economy?Jens Eisenschmidt: We had penciled in a slight recovery, not really getting us much beyond 1 percent. Backdrop here, still rising real wages. We had some tariffs in here, on steel, aluminum; in cars, much again a bit more of a beefed-up version if you want, of the 18 tariffs – but not much more than that. And then, of course, we had the German fiscal expansion that helped our outlook to sustain this positive growth rates into 2026.Seth Carpenter: Mike, for you. You also had thought that there were going to be some tariffs at some point before this last round of tariffs. Maybe you can tell us what you had in mind before last week's announcements.Michael Gapen: Yeah, Seth. We had a lot of tariffs on China. The effective rate rising to say 35 to 40 percent. But as Jens just mentioned, outside of that, we had some on steel and aluminum, and autos with Europe, but not much beyond that. So, an effective tariff rate for the U.S. that reached maybe 8 to 9 percent.We thought that would gradually weigh on the economy. We had growth at around 1.5 percent this year and 1 percent next year. And the disinflation process stopping – meaning inflation finishes the year at around 2.8 core PCE, roughly where it is now. So, a gradual slowdown from tariff implementation.Seth Carpenter: Alright, so a little bit built in. You knew there was going to be something, but boy, I guess I have to say, judging from market reactions, the world was surprised at the magnitude of things. So, what's changed in your mind? It seems like tariffs have got to push down the outlook for growth and up the out outlook for inflation. Is that about right? And can you sketch for us how this new news is going to affect the outlook?Michael Gapen: Sure. So instead of effective tariff rates of 8 to 9 percent, we're looking at effective tariff rates, maybe as high as 22 percent.Seth Carpenter: Oh, that's a lot.Michael Gapen: Yeah. So more than twice what we were expecting. Obviously, some of that may get negotiated down. Seth Carpenter: And would you say that's the highest tariff rate we've seen in a while?Michael Gapen: At least a century. If we were to a 1.5 percent on growth before, it's pretty easy to revise that down, maybe even a full percentage point, right?So you're, it's a tax on consumption and a tariff rate that high is going to pull down consumer spending. It's also going to lead to even much higher inflation than we were expecting. So rather than 2.8 for core PCE year-on-year, I wouldn't be surprised if we get something even in the high threes or perhaps even low fours.So, it pushes the economy, we would say, at least closer to a recession. If not, you're getting closer to the proverbial coin toss because there are the potential for a lot of indirect effects on business confidence. Do they spend less and hire less? And obviously we're seeing asset markets melt down. I think it's fair to describe it that way. And you could have negative wealth effects on the upper income consumers. So, the direct effects get you very modest growth a little bit above zero. It's the indirect effects that we're worried about.Seth Carpenter: Wow, that's quite a statement. So, a substantial slowdown for the U.S. Flirting with no growth. And then given all the uncertainty, the possibility that the U.S. actually goes into recession, a real possibility there. That feels like a big call.Jens, if the U.S. could be on the verge of recession with uncertainty and all of that, what are you thinking about Europe now? You had talked about Europe before the tariffs growing around 1 percent. That's not that far away from zero. So, what are you thinking about the outlook for Europe once we layer in these additional tariffs? And I guess every bit is important. Do you see retaliatory tariffs coming from the European Union?Jens Eisenschmidt: No, I think there are at least three parts here. I totally agree with that framing. So, first of all, we have the tariffs and then we have some estimates what they might mean, which, just suppose what we have heard last week sticks, would get us already in some countries into recessionary territory; and for the aggregate Euro area, not that far from it. So, we think effects could range between 60 and 120 basis points of less growth. Now that to some extent, incorporates retaliation. And so, the question is how much retaliation we might expect here. This is a key question we get from clients. I'd say we get something; that seems, sure.At the same time, it seems that Europe weighs a response that is taking into account all the constraints that are in the equation. After all the U.S. is an ally also in security concerns. You don't wanna necessarily endanger that good relationship. So that will for sure play a role. And then the U.S. has a services surplus with Europe, so it's also likely to be a response in the space of services regulation, which is not necessarily inflationary on the European side, and not necessarily growth impacting so much.But, you know, be it as it may. This is going to be down from here, for sure. And then the other thing just mentioned by Michael, I mean there is clearly a read across from a slower U.S. growth environment that will also not help growth in the Euro area. So, all being told it could very well mean, if we get the U.S. close to recession, that the Euro area is flirting with recession too.Seth Carpenter: Got it. Chetan Ahya: Seth, can I interrupt you on this one? I just wanted to add the perspective on retaliatory tariffs from China. What we had actually originally billed was that China would take up a retaliatory response, which would be less than be less than proportionate, just like the last time. But considering that China has actually, mashed U.S. reciprocal tariffs, it makes us feel that it's very unlikely that a deal will be done anytime soon.Seth Carpenter: Okay. So then how would you revise your view for what's going on with China?Chetan Ahya: Yeah, so as I mentioned earlier, we had already built in some downside but with these reciprocal tariffs, we see another 50 to 100 [basis points] downside to China's growth, depending upon how strong is the policy stimulus.Seth Carpenter: So, at some point, I suspect we're going to start having a discussion about what it really means to have a global recession, and markets are going to start to look to central banks.So, Mike, let me turn to you. Jay Powell spoke recently. He repeated that he is in no hurry to cut interest rates. Can you talk to me about the challenges that the Fed is facing right now?Michael Gapen: The Fed is faced with this problem where tariffs mean it's missing on both sides of its mandate, where inflation is rising and there's downside risk to the economy.So how do you respond to that?Really what Powell said is it's going to be tough for us to look through this rise in inflation and pre-emptively ease. So, for the moment they're on hold and they're just going to evaluate how the economy responds. If there's no recession, it likely means the Fed's on hold for a very long time. If we get negative job growth, if you will, or job cuts, then the Fed may be moving to ease policy. But right now, Powell doesn't know which one of those is going to materialize first.Seth Carpenter: Alright Mike. So, I understand what you're saying. Inflation going higher, growth going lower. Really awkward position for the Fed, and I think central banks around the world really have to weigh the two sides of these sorts of things, which one's going to dominate…Jens Eisenschmidt: Exactly. Seth, may I jump in here because I think that's a perfect segue to the ECB; which I was thinking a lot about that – just recently coming back from the U.S. – how different the position really is here. So, the ECB currently is on the way to neutral, at least as we have always thought as a good way of framing their way. Inflation is falling to target. Now with all the risks that we have mentioned, there's a clear risk we see. Inflation going below 2 percent, already by mid this year – if oil prices were to stay as low as they are and with the euro appreciation that we have seen.The tariffs scare in terms of the inflationary impact from tariffs, that's much less clear. Now, whether that's really something to worry about simply because what you typically see with these tariffs – it's actually a depreciation of the exchange rate, which we haven't seen. So, we think there is a clear risk, downside risk to our path; at least that we have an anticipation. A quicker rate cutting cycle by the ECB. And potentially if the growth outlook that we have just outlined all these risks really materializes, or threatens is more likely to materialize, then the cuts could also be deeper.Seth Carpenter: That's super tricky as well though, because they're going to have to deal with all the same uncertainty. I will say this brings up to me the Bank of Japan because it was the one major central bank that was going the opposite direction before all of this. They were hiking while the other central banks were cutting.So, Chetan, let me turn to you. Do you think the Bank of Japan's gonna be able to follow through on the additional rate hike that you all had already had in your forecast?Chetan Ahya: Yes Seth. I think Bank of Japan will have a difficult time. Japan is exposed to direct effect of 24 percent reciprocal tariffs. It will see downside from global trade slowdown, which will weigh on its exports and yen appreciation will weigh on its inflation outlook. Hence, unless if U.S. removes tariffs very quickly in the near term, we see the risk that BOJ will pause instead of hiking as we had assumed in our earlier base case.Seth Carpenter: Well, this is a good place to stop. Let me see if I can summarize the conversations we've had so far. Before this latest round of tariffs had been announced, we had thought there'd be some tariffs, and we had looked for a bit of slowdown in the U.S. and in Europe and in China – the three major economies in the world. But these new rounds of tariffs have added a lot to that slowdown pushing the, the global economy right up to the edge of recession. And what that means as well is for central banks, they're left in at least something of a bind. The Bank of Japan though, the one major central bank that had been hiking, boy, there's a really good chance that that rate hike gets derailed.Seth Carpenter: Well, thank you for listening. And if you enjoy the show, please leave us a review wherever you listen and share Thoughts on the Market with a friend or a colleague today.

Fredrik snackar med Oskar Groth om hans nya app Backdrop, problemen med Swiftui, och om utveckling med AI-stöd. Backdrop är Oskars nya Mac-app för att smycka sin dator med animerade skrivbordsbakgrunder. Utvecklingen har varit lång och tagit många intressanta svängar, och Oskar berättar om hela vägen och vad som kan tänkas komma framöver. Därifrån kommer vi in på Apples vyramverk Swiftui - en modell och abstraktion som lite har misslyckats och saknar vision? Oskar har jobbat länge och djupt med Swiftui, men har nått en punkt där han istället börjat gå tillbaka till Appkit i högre grad. Det går för långsamt, kräver senaste operativsystemen, och är för svårt att gå på djupet vid behov. Sist snackar vi om Oskars syn på AI och utveckling. Oskar har svårt att se att vi kommer att sitta och skriva - och ladda ner - appar för var och varannan funktion vi behöver utan snarare ha data och be våra AI-agenter bearbeta och visa upp den på det sätt vi som användare begär. Oskar berättar också hur han använder språkmodeller i sitt utvecklande. Ett stort tack till Cloudnet som sponsrar vår VPS! Har du kommentarer, frågor eller tips?

The Tower of Babel is one of those events that is incredibly important but often misunderstood. Today, we'll study Genesis 11 and see why this passage is in our Bibles and how it serves as a dark backdrop to the entire message of God's Word. Join us for a key study in the key chapters in God's Word! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: Genesis 11 1. Read through Genesis 11 and place a box around any words or phrases that speak of man's unity. Place a triangle around any words or phrases that speak of man's disunity. How does man's inability to communicate contribute to the disharmony among people? 2.    Read through Genesis 11 and circle the names Shem (in verse 10), Eber (in verse 14), Terah (in verse 24), and Abram (in verse 26). Then draw a line that connects them all, starting from Shem and ending with Abram. What is the significance of these connections?  3.    How did the study suggest that Genesis 11 serves as a dark backdrop to the rest of the Bible? What is so dark in this chapter? What is the diamond at the end of it?  4.    In verse 4, what reason did the people give for wanting to stay in the land of Shinar? What command was this in direct disobedience to? What was the purpose of that command?  5.    Looking at how the people were reasoning in verses 3 and 4, would you say they were taking God's instructions into consideration or disregarding them? Why do you think they had this mindset? 6.    In verse 4, was their sin “building the tower” or something else? How is that significant to the plan of God given in Genesis 1:28 and 9:1? 7.    The people used God's blessings to sin against Him. How might a person still use their God-given blessings to sin against Him? What, instead, should we do with God's blessings? 8.    How did God's judgment redirect the people to obey His commands? What does this tell us about one of the purposes of God's judgment? 9.    Who is the key person mentioned in verse 26? According to Genesis 17:5, what was his name later changed to? What did this new name mean?  10.    The people who settled in the Plain of Shinar were doing what seemed good to them, but they completely disregarded God's commands. When you look at your approach to life, how do you make decisions? Do most of your decisions simply reflect what you think is best? Do you normally consult God's Word for what He says on that matter? Why or why not? 11.    Would the people who know you describe you as a person who is actively seeking live according to God's way? Are you a person who seeks to please God, obey Him, and glorify Him? Why or why not? 12.    What implication does the meaning of “Abraham” have for the kind of nation Abraham was to be the father of? What does the study tell us about God's plan for choosing Abram from among the nations? 13.    Although we ought to obey God, none of us do perfectly. None of us can fully obey Him in our own strength. As we end our study in Genesis 11, take a moment to seek God's transforming grace, so that He might transform your heart, mind, will, and actions to conform to His holy standard in submission to His Son, who is our Lord and God and King?

We've got the tree lit, the Moose mug filled, and the jersey on—peak festive vibes achieved. And as a gift to you, our loyal audience, we're delivering THE definitive Top 10 Christmas Movie Tier List for the season. Will your favorite make the cut? Stick around until the end to find out (spoiler: it's scientifically perfect). But first—housekeeping, because that's how we roll. It's over, folks. After weeks of drama, intense debates, and a twist that would make M. Night Shyamalan blush, the backdrop situation has been resolved. The verdict? Jeff's fiancée pulled him back from the brink, and he's now Team Backdrop. Los from 280+ Podcast swooped in with a killer zinger (comparing it to the Roku screensaver), and honestly, we can't unsee it. Thanks, Los. Backdrop stays—it's a holiday miracle. We've heard you. The button sound effect has been a hot topic, sparking everything from mild annoyance to death threats involving my French Bulldog, LuBug (seriously, who hurt you?). After consulting friends, family, my therapist, and even Los, we've made a decision. Instead of removing it…we're quadrupling it. That's right—four buttons, four times the chaos. Hate it? Let me know in the comments, and maybe I'll make it eight. Democracy, baby. Breaking news: Haley Welch is awake after a two-week crypto coma caused by a rug pull on her meme coin. She's back tweeting apologies and linking victims to Berwick Law (shoutout, not sponsored). Jake Paul vibes all over this, but hey, at least she's alive. Luigi Mancuso (or is it Maroni?) is being treated like Gotham's #1 villain. NYPD rolled out SWAT-level security as they paraded him through New York, and Trump weighed in with his usual “this is terrible, but I know everything” energy. The man is now sharing a jail block with Diddy and Sam Bankman-Fried. What's next? Luigi starring in a toothpaste ad? Stay tuned—your boy is headed to NYC to crack this case true-crime style. The New Jersey drones saga continues. Trump says the government knows the truth, but I'll let you decide if they're just DJI drones or the opening act for WWIII. Either way, keep your eyes on the sky and your Nerf guns locked and loaded. The Ultimate Christmas Movie Tier List - Top 10: 10. Bad Santa 9. Die Hard (we're finally calling it a Christmas movie—sue me) 8. Four Christmases 7. Ghosts of Girlfriends Past 6. Deck the Halls 5. The Santa Clause 4. Home Alone 3.

In this episode of Crime Time, Inc., we unravel the complexities of the Julius and Ethel Rosenberg case. Accused of espionage and executed in the 1950s, their story is steeped in atomic secrets, Cold War tensions, and lingering questions of justice. We explore FBI records, historical accounts, and personal letters to paint a vivid picture of the trial. From the FBI's discovery of leaked atomic bomb secrets in 1949 to the courtroom drama that became a global event, we delve into the conflicting evidence and ethical dilemmas surrounding the case. Join us as we dissect the prosecution and defense arguments, the global reaction, and recent revelations that continue to fuel the debate on whether the Rosenbergs were guilty masterminds or victims of Cold War paranoia.00:00 Introduction to the Rosenberg Case00:34 Backdrop of the Cold War00:54 The FBI Investigation02:47 The Trial Begins03:22 The Human Element04:22 Global Reactions05:58 Evidence and Arguments09:20 Ethical Considerations11:11 Recent Revelations13:05 Conclusion and Reflection Hosted on Acast.

Brandon Thurber, chief market strategist at Regions Asset Management, says the market is looking strong for the next 12 to 18 months, provided it can avoid a big earnings shortfall. With high earnings expectations, he sees earnings pressure overhanging a market that is overbought but which still has pockets that represent good values. Thurber sees the market broadening out, with mid-caps being part of the rally but small companies likely to keep struggling, delivering moderate growth despite increased levels of volatility than investors have seen this year. Likewise, Buck Klintworth of Chase Investment Counsel — co-manager of the Chase Growth Fund — says that all of the market's underlying fundamentals are positive right now, and he suggests to stick with a friendly trend, even though they should look for "any cracks that begin to develop" that could be signs that the economy is turning. Kevin Mahn, president and chief investment officer at Hennion & Walsh Asset Management — which runs the Smart Trust Unit Investment Trusts — expects that rate cuts in the next two years will drive investors to turn for income alternatives "since they can't find the 5 percent in the short-term CDs any more." That will drive investors toward business development companies and leveraged municipal closed-end funds, and he discusses the benefits of playing those areas of the market using unit investment trusts.

Emerging-market assets are likely to swing on US-centric narratives, yet domestic growth and inflation dynamics may be of less concern than in previous cycles. Ricardo Adrogue, head of global sovereign debt and currencies at Barings, joinsDamian Sassower, Bloomberg Intelligence's chief emerging market fixed income strategist, to discuss the year-ahead outlook for EM credit, rates and foreign exchange. Adrogue and Sassower touch on issues ranging from US trade policy and EM remittances to Chinese deflation and a weaker euro. The EM Lens podcast is part of BI's FICC Focus series.

Listen in to conversation from a multi-lens perspective on the lead-up to the Hamas attack of October 7, 2023, and the Israeli response in Gaza.

While the Accords were seen by supporters as only a first step in regional normalization, they ignored the Palestinian question. In addition to offering historical insight, the conversation will also address where the rapidly unfolding events in Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran might be heading in the future.Thanks for listening!

Stephen Grootes speaks to Xhanti Payi, an Economist at PWC about the South African Reserve Bank's surprise move to cut the repo rate by 25 basis points to 7.75%, effective Friday, and what this decision means for the economy, amidst a cautious outlook due to global interest rate fluctuations and the recent rand depreciation.   In other interviews on the Money Show, we unpack the wisdom of hindsight: what seasoned investors wish they knew about equity investing at 21, and the valuable lessons they've learned by 45.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Joe Kalish, chief global macro strategist at Ned Davis Research, says he won't be surprised if there is a "normal correction" for the stock market once the presidential election is decided, followed by a pick-up into year's end, regardless of the election outcome. Kalish says he is skeptical that the economy can get to a 2 percent inflation level sustainably without going through a recession, but he does not have a recession prediction in his outlook, which argues for no landing over the next year or two. He expects the market to keep growing, albeit not at the pace seen over the last two years. Larry Tentarelli, editor of the Blue Chip Daily Trend Report, says that he is holding to a year-end target for the Standard and Poor's 500 of 6,000 to 6,100 — a gain of about 5 percent from current levels — provided the presidential election is decided in a timely fashion, so that uncertainty doesn't start to setin and cause unexpected problems. Mona Mahajan, senior investment strategist at Edward Jones discusses the firm's research into caregivers and the sandwich generation, which showed that caregiving responsibilities have sapped the confidence of American women about their ability to save for the future. And while the election results likely won't be known for several days, Mark Hamrick, senior economic analyst and Washington bureau chief at BankRate.com talks about the pocketbook issues that Americans are facing and how the election could impact what happens next.

Fall is a beautiful time of year for a drive in the country to witness a Wisconsin harvest with a backdrop of changing leaves. Badger Farms LLC in Deerfield sweetens the deal with a stunning and historical event barn overlooking 500 acres of canary grass. Dave Muehl says agritourism and the special forage crop business balance each other out to keep his farm alive. He adds the canary grass has brought value to fields that weren't ideal for growing crops. We're introducing you to these destinations courtesy of USDA Specialty Crop Block Grant 23-10.

It's an election year, so the politicians are treating Detroit like a game show set.

Small businesses suffer, but they don't care- they're small. In parachutes the media. “How are the auto workers going to vote?” they ask me without asking the auto workers. “How is Dearborn going to vote?” they ask me without asking the little people of Dearborn. “How would I know?” I tell them. I didn't ask them how they would vote. I asked them instead, how they're going to feed their children now that they got laid off. Geraldo said Black men don't want hard jobs. How would he know? He never asked them. Watch our joint report with NewsNation. Plus an update on the latest Trump hoax. And fact checking the most recent Samantha Woll murder report.
