Flat Beveridge strikes again. You know the drill. We've been stuck in forgot how to grow and its no-hire/no-fire labor market the past few years. That began to change last year, especially last summer when no-hiring somehow got to be even less hiring. Then last year and this year, no-firing became some firing, in other words, shifting to the flat part of the Beveridge curve. But what we've been getting more recently looks to be an escalation in firing. Verizon just announced it may be cutting 15% of its 100,000 strong workforce.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

The collapse and bankruptcy of another private credit supported firm has generated significant losses this week. But as I pointed out last week with the shuttered UBS sponsored hedge funds, it isn't necessarily the amount of money being burned. It's what each of these cockroaches reveals, and how they add to the growing mistrust about the entire private credit shadow banking network. That's the real danger which could threaten to unravel a whole lot more than a few troubled firms. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------------Get the free guide that breaks down the real economic signals behind America's shrinking consumer demand, and how to protect your wealth before the slowdown hits your income https://web.eurodollar-university.com/home-------------------------------------------------------------------Bloomberg BlackRock Faces 100% Loss on Private Loan, Adding to Credit Market Painhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-10/blackrock-eyes-100-loss-on-private-loan-amid-debate-over-marksBloomberg Why First Brands Has Sparked So Many Concerns on Wall Streethttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-10/why-first-brands-collapse-sparked-concerns-on-wall-streetBloomberg Car Loan Delinquencies Hit Record for Riskiest Borrowershttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-12/car-loan-delinquencies-hit-record-for-riskiest-borrowershttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

Fast food chain Wendy's said it's closing hundreds more US locations than previously announced because customers can't afford to eat there. It fits with what McDonalds US President said last week about how the entire industry is fighting for contracting traffic. It sounds practically Chinese talking about oversupply of cheap hamburgers and chicken nuggets. But as we know only too well from China's economy, it isn't too much production it is the lack of demand. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------------Get the free guide that breaks down the real economic signals behind America's shrinking consumer demand, and how to protect your wealth before the slowdown hits your income https://web.eurodollar-university.com/home-------------------------------------------------------------------USA Today Wendy's to close roughly 300 stores nationwide starting in late 2025https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2025/11/07/wendys-closing-hundreds-stores-2025/87146469007/CNBC McDonald's U.S. boss puts focus on ‘value and affordability' as consumer spending splitshttps://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/06/mcdonalds-us-boss-memo-value-affordability.htmlBloomberg US Small-Business Optimism Dips to Six-Month Low on Earningshttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-11/us-small-business-optimism-slips-to-six-month-low-on-earningsBloomberg US Companies Shed Jobs in Late October, Weekly ADP Data Showhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-11/us-firms-shed-11-250-jobs-per-week-in-four-weeks-to-oct-25-adphttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

The federal government may be opening back up but the administration floating a tariff dividend is the real news here. It's yet another dose of reality showing the stock market is not that reality. Americans are struggling and the timing behind this dividend is transparently in response to worsening economic conditions.

CarMax sacked their CEO after preannouncing just brutal results for an industry already reeling and at the epicenter of the current ongoing breakdown in credit markets. The stock plunged 25% Thursday when management disclosed unit sales are looking to crash by 8 to 12% in the latest quarter. Relatedly, consumer confidence plunged to record and near-record lows...and it has little to do with the govt shutdown. Eurodollar University's conversation w/Steve Van Metre---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

We'd love to hear from you. What are your thoughts and questions?In this enlightening conversation, Collin Plume shares his journey into the world of precious metals, particularly silver, and discusses its significance as a wealth protection tool. He elaborates on the industrial uses of silver, its recent price surge, and the long-term investment strategies that can benefit investors. The discussion also touches on the role of central banks in the silver market and offers practical steps for new investors looking to diversify their portfolios with silver.Main Points: Collin's journey into precious metals began with his grandfather's gift of silver coins.Gold and silver are considered real money, unlike fiat currency.The demand for silver is driven by over 10,000 industrial uses.Recent price surges in silver are influenced by geopolitical factors and market sentiment.Investing in silver can provide a hedge against economic uncertainty.Central banks are increasingly buying gold and silver as a strategic investment.Silver's industrial demand is expected to grow, leading to potential shortages.Investors should consider the long-term value of silver rather than short-term fluctuations.Building a relationship with a trusted investment firm is crucial for new investors.Physical ownership of silver offers a tangible asset in an increasingly digital world.Connect with Collin Plume:https://www.linkedin.com/company/noble-gold-investments/posts/?feedView=allhttps://www.facebook.com/NobleGoldInvestments?mibextid=wwXIfrhttps://www.instagram.com/noblegoldinvestments?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==X: @NobleGoldIRAhttps://www.youtube.com/@NobleGoldhttps://www.tiktok.com/@noblegoldinvestments

UBS is reportedly closing down not one but two hedge funds, in a more that raises a lot of questions but also some very uncomfortable parallels to 2007. One of those funds is exposed to First Brands, so understandable. The other...isn't. And that raises the prospect of the R-word; in this case, that does not stand for recession, rather its uglier monetary twin. Bloomberg UBS Winds Down O'Connor Funds in Sign of First Brands Strainhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-06/ubs-to-wind-down-o-connor-funds-with-first-brands-exposureNYT $3.2 Billion Move by Bear Stearns to Rescue Fundhttps://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/23/business/23bond.htmlhttps://eurodollar.university

The most October job cuts in over twenty years. More than October 2008, if you're keeping score. While that doesn't mean this is a repeat of 2008, can we all finally admit this is a really serious situation? And as the flat Beveridge curve emerges more clearly, the rising unemployment it represents is also causing collateral damage, pun intended. The New York Fed said yesterday auto, credit card and student loan delinquencies hit levels, well you'll have to see.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

Who was Rachel Reeves really speaking to when she hinted at higher taxes this week? How much of a threat is the Supreme Court to Treasury tariff revenues? And how useful is “G2” as a lens for the new global order? Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing unpacks these big global macro questions in the latest episode of The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics. Also on the show, Chief Markets Economist John Higgins assesses whether this week's sell-off marks the end of the great AI-driven US equity boom, or was just a wobble on the way to new highs.Analysis and events referenced in this episodeRead: UK Autumn Budget 2025 PreviewRead: How could the Budget influence UK housing?Drop-In: India at the geo-economic crossroadsDrop-In: Commercial Property Outlook - What to watch out for in 2026Read: Reliance on tech is a double-edged swordRead: What to make of the mixed reaction to this week's big-tech results

The dollar is accelerating and not in the direction most people were anticipating, to the point it has rattled the entire cryptocurrency space. That's why cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin just got hit with a major selloff this week as the dollar debasement theme which had driven their latest surge comes up completely empty. More important than that, however, the dollar is accelerating higher which signals quite a lot all its own. But what? You can see how this gets confusing with all this unnatural noise. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisWhat is a Eurodollar University membership?

Not only is retail giant Target not committing to the big seasonal hiring it always does, the company is actually laying off nearly 2000 of its corporate staff in its biggest management and job shakeup in years. Target is merely the latest “one-off” big name to announce job cuts. No wonder consumer confidence just took another huge hit and that was from the one survey that has held up the best this year.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisWhat is a Eurodollar University membership?

The cash squeeze in wholesale money markets that we've been following got a whole more exciting on Friday, and now we have the full set of numbers on it. Interest rates soared the most since 2020 further proving the Federal Reserve's program which is supposed to keep this from happening doesn't keep it from happening. Imagine my shock. We also know that there were plenty of spare reserves available, too. And with more borrowing from the Fed again this morning so far, we have to consider the question whether this ongoing and escalating tightness is pointing to something bigger. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

Buying a home in Ireland can be one of the most exciting and daunting parts of an expat move.In this episode, I chat with Rob Priestman, Business Development Manager at EBS, who's been helping people secure mortgages for over 20 years. Rob's also an ultra-marathon runner, which might explain his stamina for navigating the twists and turns of Ireland's mortgage market!We talk through what's really happening in the market right now and what expats and returning Irish need to know before applying. Rob explains how Central Bank lending rules work in practice, how lenders assess affordability, and what to expect if you're earning in a foreign currency (including why only 80% of that income is typically taken into account). We also cover practical essentials like getting “mortgage ready,” working with a solicitor or buyer's agent, and why opening a euro bank account early on can save you trouble later.The key thing to note here is that every case is different, but Rob's advice will help you plan ahead and approach the process with confidence. His calm, practical insight is a real reassurance in what can be a complex journey.Topics Discussed in this Episode:Changes in the Irish Mortgage Market: Rob outlines how lending practices have evolved since the Celtic Tiger years, with Central Bank rules now enforcing stricter loan-to-income and affordability criteria to ensure borrowers can manage repayments.Getting Mortgage-Ready from Abroad: We discuss the practical steps expats should take before applying—understanding costs, securing mortgage approval in advance, and assembling the right professional support team including a solicitor and buyer's agent.Foreign Income and Currency Considerations: Rob explains how lenders assess non-euro income (typically taking 80% of its value to allow for currency fluctuations) and why having a euro bank account is essential for repayments.Understanding Affordability and Repayment Capacity: We look at how repayment capacity is tested, including why existing overseas rent or mortgage payments must still be included until you return to Ireland—often reducing how much you can initially borrow.Buying vs. Building in Ireland: Rob shares how the process for self-builds mirrors that of a purchase, with extra focus on documentation and costings, and stresses the importance of starting conversations early to make the process smoother.Get in touch with Rob (and mention the podcast when you do!):Email: rob.priestman@ebs.iePhone: +353 879 037 867LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-priestman-3767277/*****If you loved this episode or have a similar story, we'd love to hear from you!

The ECB this week held its policy rate right at 2% with policymakers out in force claiming to everyone who might listen they're likely done at that level. Instead, GDP data from all over the continent just came out and showed there's more pringles yet to come from Europe. But there's also one big factor here few people are considering and it has to do with the 2% level itself.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisIn a world where markets swing on every headline, focus matters.

New home sales in China collapsed by 42% in October when compared to last October, representing more than just another setback for the beleaguered Chinese real estate market, the world's largest asset class. This is a major problem for Chinese banks, not that they were expecting different. So, we see interest rates are back to moving lower, setting multi-month lows with the latest short-lived stretch of optimism based on Chinese tech stocks being burst yet again by the reality stocks are not real life. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisWhat is a Eurodollar University membership?

It was a big week for central banks — from rate cuts and policy holds to talk of wrapping up quantitative tightening. The Fed made another move, bringing questions about what 2025 might bring. Dave Spano and Brian Jacobsen unpack the key takeaways in this Week In Review. Plus, we'll dive into the “Labubu Trend” shaking up the collectibles market and what it teaches about investor behavior. Wrapping up the show, we highlight six practical benefits of using trusts in your financial planning. 

Simon Dixon joins the show to expose the financial power structures controlling governments, wars, and the illusion of democracy. He unpacks how the “Proof of Weapons Network” operates behind the scenes through central banks, debt, and corporate influence — tracing the origins of global control from gold movements to modern technocracy. They discuss BlackRock's growing dominance, the weaponization of fiat, and how Bitcoin serves as a peaceful counterforce against this system. Simon Dixon is a Bitcoin pioneer, investor, and author of Bank to the Future, known for his work uncovering the intersection of money, war, and state power. // GUEST // Website: https://simondixon.com/ X: https://x.com/SimonDixonTwitt YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UC_wNYJCyycXXPmWni2JNZhQ // SPONSORS // Cowbolt: https://cowbolt.com/ Heart and Soil Supplements (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://heartandsoil.co/ Blockware Solutions: https://mining.blockwaresolutions.com Onramp: https://onrampbitcoin.com/?grsf=breedlove Mindlab Pro: https://www.mindlabpro.com/breedlove Coinbits: https://coinbits.app/breedlove The Farm at Okefenokee: https://okefarm.com/ Orange Pill App: https://www.orangepillapp.com/ // PRODUCTS I ENDORSE // Protect your mobile phone from SIM swap attacks: https://www.efani.com/breedlove Lineage Provisions (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://lineageprovisions.com/?ref=breedlove Colorado Craft Beef (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://coloradocraftbeef.com/ Salt of the Earth Electrolytes: http://drinksote.com/breedlove Jawzrsize (code RobertBreedlove for 20% off): https://jawzrsize.com // UNLOCK THE WISDOM OF THE WORLD'S BEST NON-FICTION BOOKS // https://course.breedlove.io/ // SUBSCRIBE TO THE CLIPS CHANNEL // /@robertbreedloveclips2996 // TIMESTAMPS // 0:00 - WiM Episode Trailer 1:23 - The Illusion of Democracy and Control 2:50 - The Shift to a Multipolar World 6:13 - Understanding the Proof of Weapons Network 9:03 - The Debt-Based Ponzi Scheme 12:05 - Central Banks and War 14:52 - Weaponization of Money and Civil Unrest 17:57 - Bitcoin as a Counterforce 21:04 - Future of Currency and Technocracy 24:01 - Power Dynamics and the Federal Reserve 26:57 - Gold and Geopolitical Power 39:24 - Deep State and Corporate Control 42:46 - The Illusion of Democracy 48:36 - Boycotting the Financial System 51:45 - The Role of Money in Society 57:52 - Evolution of Economic Theories 1:01:42 - Rise of Multipolarity 1:07:50 - Future of Global Power Dynamics 1:20:50 - Rise of BRICS and Regional Power 1:21:20 - Decolonization and Africa's Future 1:22:21 - China's Global Strategy 1:23:44 - Shift from Western Hegemony 1:25:41 - Technology and Future Society 1:29:13 - Avoiding Global Conflict 1:31:24 - Economics of War and Reconstruction 1:34:42 - Centralization vs Decentralization in Bitcoin 1:43:09 - Spiritual Warfare and Personal Responsibility 1:51:16 - Conclusion and Call to Action // PODCAST // Podcast Website: https://whatismoneypodcast.com/ Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast… Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/25LPvm8… RSS Feed: https://feeds.simplecast.com/MLdpYXYI // SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL // Bitcoin: 3D1gfxKZKMtfWaD1bkwiR6JsDzu6e9bZQ7 Sats via Strike: https://strike.me/breedlove22 Dollars via Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/RBreedlove Dollars via Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/Robert-Br… // SOCIAL // Breedlove X: https://x.com/Breedlove22 WiM?

The reason why Fed Chair Jay Powell didn't want to commit to a December rate cut is simple. A number of voting members at the FOMC are not convinced the weak labor market is actually all that weak. Sure, the numbers don't look good, but they're wonder if it is real. Well, Chipotle and Kraft-Heinz would like to answer them with a pair of serious warnings about what they're seeing from consumers.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

AP correspondent Karen Chammas reports on Europe's economy

Amazon announced today it will be cutting 14,000 corporate jobs, though leaker reports say the real number will be roughly 30,000 over time. The company itself says it needs to be more nimble to leverage AI technology when the timing and the target instead shows macroeconomic headwinds are behind the move. There is a reason why consumers believe the US economy is in recession right now. While layoffs like Amazon's remain relatively scarce, unemployment is piling up all over the place and so does the confirmation.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisWhat is a Eurodollar University membership?

Key Takeaways: Understand what inflation really is: Traditional finance often explains inflation the wrong way. Knowing what causes it helps you protect and grow your wealth. Income isn't the same as wealth: Making more money isn't enough—you need to invest in rare assets that grow faster than inflation. Know how central banks work: Since central banks control the flow of money, understanding their actions can help you spot trends and grow your wealth. Borrow smartly instead of selling: Using your assets as collateral lets you access cash without losing your long-term investments. Invest in scarce assets: Putting money into things like Bitcoin or real estate can protect you from the falling value of government-controlled currency.  Chapters: Timestamp Summary 0:00 Understanding Inflation and Wealth Through Energy Principles 4:31 Understanding Government, Central Banks, and Bitcoin's Role in Economy 14:40 Embracing Creativity Over Consumerism for Personal Empowerment 16:38 Leveraging Scarce Assets for Financial Growth and Stability 23:19 Scarcity and Wealth Building in an Inflationary Economy 27:36 Emotional Intelligence in Investing Amid Ideological Differences Powered by Stone Hill Wealth Management   Social Media Handles    Follow Phillip Washington, Jr. on Instagram (@askphillip)   Subscribe to Wealth Building Made Simple newsletter https://www.wealthbuildingmadesimple.us/   Ready to turn your investing dreams into reality?

$25 trillion! This is the sum injected into the economy by Governments and Central Banks to protect a significant portion of the global economy during the Covid crisis. Where does this funding come from, and what are the impacts of such government spending? Is this strategy sustainable in the long term? These are important questions to consider, particularly since we are in a year where half of the world's population is heading to the polls and many candidates are advocating for a 'whatever it takes' approach.Even if we are near full employment, witnessing rising wages, have defeated the Coronavirus, and have inflation levels gradually approaching central bank objectives, let us not overlook the consequences of this approach. The massive government spending to save lives, known as 'whatever it takes,' is not without costs. As the saying goes, there‘s no such thing as a free lunch! The result? Endemic sovereign debt and budget deficits – a metaphorical portrayal of 'original sin.'In this episode of 2050 Investors, Kokou Agbo-Bloua will delve into sovereign debt sustainability and explore how governments can balance their finances amid high-interest rates while meeting the demands of voters. Joining the discussion is Anatoli Annenkov, Societe Generale's Senior Economist for Europe, who will analyse the relationship between public debt and central banks. He will explain how central banks can help stabilize sovereign debt crises and shed light on the importance of their independence.CreditsPresenter & Writer: Kokou Agbo-Bloua. Producers & Editors: Jovaney Ashman, Jennifer Krumm, Louis Trouslard.Sound Director: La Vilaine, Pierre-Emmanuel Lurton.

The Federal Reserve's Open Market Committee starts a two-day meeting on interest rates today. Most of the government data the Fed usually considers when voting on rates isn't available because of the shutdown. We did get a tardy consumer price index report last Friday, though, and the Fed also produces some data itself. But can that paint a clear enough economic picture? Also: why workplace insurance premiums are likely to climb.

Another day, another significant borrowing from the Federal Reserve's repo facility. This has become a regular occurrence and concurrent with a rise in money market rates due to the cash squeeze I told you about yesterday, there's a lot of similarities to 2019 and it's got the Fed on track to not just cut rates this week also possibly terminate the balance sheet runoff – even if Steve doesn't quite agree.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

The ongoing cash squeeze in money markets is very likely to bring an end to the Federal Reserve's balance sheet runoff, known as QT. When the FOMC meets this coming week, officials are almost certainly going to cut rates given the perilous situation in labor. But with financial firms still using the Fed's repo facility and especially as benchmark money rates stay elevated, the second item on the list of decisions is going to be ending QT. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisIn a world where markets swing on every headline, focus matters.
