Jim Thorne discusses the FOMC decision to keep rates unchanged and its impact on the fight against inflation. Thorne doesn't believe the Fed is using the correct data indicators, such as BLS Labor Data and Consumer Sentiment, to make its decision. He believes the committee will be late in rate cuts, adding "I am completely and totally disappointed" in the FOMC stance. Thorne adds that "deflation is the risk" and believes there is a failure by economists at the Fed.======== 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 – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

#604: The biggest trade shake-up in 135 years is happening right now. April brought tariff levels that economists say haven't been seen since the 1890s, creating ripple effects throughout the economy. We're seeing a stark disconnect between official economic data and how people feel about their financial future. While the economy added 177,000 jobs in April — beating forecasts — consumer confidence has plummeted to alarming levels. Almost 70 percent of Americans now expect higher unemployment ahead, despite the strong job numbers. The tariffs have triggered some unexpected behaviors. Companies rushed to import goods before prices increased, which ironically pushed the trade deficit to record levels. Consumers went on buying sprees for cars, computers, and other expensive items, fearing they'd soon cost much more. Meanwhile, inflation expectations have surged to their highest levels in decades. What does this mean for investors? Bond markets reacted dramatically, with Treasury yields posting one of the sharpest spikes on record mid-April before settling back down. The dollar weakened significantly, and economists have raised recession probability to 45 percent — up from 30 percent just last month. Small businesses are feeling the uncertainty too. After initial optimism about potential tax cuts and deregulation, their expectations have soured amid concerns about how tariffs might hurt smaller firms disproportionately. Market volatility has hit retirement savers particularly hard. We take a call from a listener named Johanna who shared that she lost 30 percent of her portfolio due to recent tariff-related swings. She's wondering whether she's still "Coast FIRE" — even when market shocks alter her retirement math. Join us as we break down April's economic data, explain what's behind the market volatility, and discuss what these historic tariffs might mean for your money in the months ahead.

Ian Wyatt and Ted Rossman discuss the Consumer Sentiment survey, which fell for the fourth straight month. The data is predictive, Ted argues, because it shapes purchasing decisions: consumers are stocking up, advancing purchases, and might pull back in the future. He thinks the data could push the Fed to keep rates higher for longer. Wyatt said what's “concerning” about higher expectations around inflation is the threat of “stagflation.”======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Equifax advisors Jesse Hardin, Dave Sojka, Tom O'Neill, and Maria Urtubey explore the disconnect between positive hard data and declining consumer sentiment, rising concerns over tariffs, and their disproportionate impact on households and businesses. They dig into leading indicators to watch—like delinquency rates, employment trends, and consumer spending—and offer practical recommendations to help lenders and businesses navigate uncertainty. 

With tariff headlines changing by the day, it's tempting to react—but that could be a costly mistake. We'll break down why chasing policy noise is a fool's game, why our stance at Henssler remains grounded in facts not forecasts, and how our Henssler Ten Year Rule is designed to help you ride out this kind of manufactured volatility. Despite ongoing uncertainty and speculation about a potential slowdown, the hard economic data remains resilient. We break down the latest economic reports, including the Consumer Price Index, the Federal Reserve's March meeting minutes, the Producer Price Index, and recent consumer sentiment readings.After the break, K.C. brings together his two favorite topics: college sports and finance. Nico Iamaleava was essentially forced off the University of Tennessee's football team over a dispute tied to an NIL agreement. He potentially lost millions before ever seeing a dime—which begs the question: what kind of financial advice was he getting? We explore why having the right team around you—financially and personally—is more important than ever. Whether you're an athlete, a business owner, or just trying to make smart money moves, this conversation matters.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C.

Consumer confidence collapses, China flashes its “nuclear option,” Zillow goes after secret listings, and uh oh, renovations could get even pricier—what does it all mean for your investments? Americans are dealing with severe trade war whiplash, and it's starting to show. Consumer sentiment has fallen off a cliff in the most recent reading, with many Americans fearful that inflation will spike back up, the economy will slow way down, and we'll be stuck in economic quicksand. How close is this to reality, and if average Americans are panicking, what should investors do to keep their sanity and portfolios stable? It's been quite a week, so we're bringing you the biggest headlines from the housing market and more! Zillow fights to unlock some of the “gated” listings agents and brokers have been using to curate their clientele selectively. Don't know what secret listings we're talking about? There's a good chance they were hidden from you, too! China holds the “nuclear option” that could end the trade war, but will they use it, knowing that it could quickly send a shockwave across the shore and straight into China's own economy? Plus, are things really that bad? According to Americans…yes. Consumer sentiment is now hovering around ten-year lows. Flipper confidence could be next, as construction costs may rise due to tariffs. How do you protect your deals, no matter what's coming down the pipeline? In This Episode We Cover China's secret weapon against high tariffs (and whether they'll actually use it) New consumer sentiment numbers that show just how bad Americans think the economy will get  Inflation expectations and why many Americans are prepared for a return to constantly rising prices Zillow's move to end listing gatekeeping and open up more housing options for ALL buyers James' time-tested advice to take NOW if you're renovating or flipping a home And So Much More!

This marked the third consecutive decline in consumer sentiment. --- A year ago during the same period, the index stood notably higher at 79.4. - Several key factors contributed to this decline. -- The Current Economic Conditions Index decreased from 65.7 to 63.5, down from 82.5 a year earlier. -- Similarly, the Index of Consumer Expectations saw a sharp drop from 64.0 to 54.2, compared to 77.4 a year ago. -- Inflation expectations also played a significant role, with year-ahead inflation expectations climbing from 4.3% to 4.9%, marking the highest level since November 2022. --- Additionally, long-run inflation expectations increased from 3.5% to 3.9%, the largest month-over-month rise since 1993. !--The overarching takeaway from the report was that the decline in sentiment affected various demographic groups across age, income, wealth, political affiliations, and geographic regions, with inflation concerns and policy uncertainty emerging as critical factors behind the drop.
