Economic data looks backward while equity markets are looking ahead. Our CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist Mike Wilson explains why this delays the Federal Reserve in both cutting and hiking rates – and why this is a feature of monetary policy, not a bug.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Mike Wilson, Morgan Stanley's CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist. Today on the podcast I'll be discussing why economic data can be counterintuitive for how stocks trade. It's Monday, August 4th at 11:30am in New York. So, let's get after it. Since the lows in April, the rally in stocks has been relentless with no tradable pullbacks. I have been steadfastly bullish since early May primarily due to the V-shaped recovery in earnings revisions breadth that began in mid-April. The rebound in earnings revisions has been a function of the positive reflexivity from max bearishness on tariffs, the AI capex cycle bottoming, and the weaker U.S. dollar. Now, cash tax savings from the One Big Beautiful Bill are an additional benefit to cash flow which should drive higher capital spending and M&A. As usual, stocks have traded ahead of the positive sentiment and the lagging economic data – which leads me to the main point for today. Weak labor data last week may worry some investors in the short term. But ultimately we see that as just another positive catalyst for stocks. Further deterioration would simply get the Fed to start cutting rates sooner and more aggressively.The bond market seems to agree and is now pricing a 90 percent chance of a Fed cut in September, and the 2-year Treasury yield is 80 basis points below the fed[eral] funds rate. This spread is not nearly as severe as last summer when it reached 200 basis points. However, it will widen further if next month's labor data is disappointing again. While weaker economic data could lead to further weakness in equities, the labor data is arguably the most backward-looking data series we follow. It's also why the Fed tends to be late with rate cuts. Meanwhile, inflation metrics are arguably the second most backward looking data, which explains why the Fed also tends to be late in terms of hiking rates. In my view, it's a feature of monetary policy, not a bug. Finally, in my opinion, the bond market's influence is more important than President Trump's public calls for Powell to cut rates. The equity market understands this dynamic, too—which is why it also gets ahead of the Fed at various stages of the cycle. We noted in our Mid-Year Outlook that April was a very durable low for equities that effectively priced a mild recession. To fully appreciate this view, one must acknowledge that equities were correcting for the 12 months leading up to April with the average stock down close to 30 percent at the lows. More importantly, it also coincided with a major trough in earnings revisions breadth. In short, Liberation Day marked the end of a significant bear market that began a year earlier. Remember, equity markets bottom on bad news and Liberation Day was the last piece of a long string of bad news that formed the bottom for earnings revisions breadth that we have been laser focused on. To bring it home, economic data is backward looking, earnings revisions and equity markets are forward looking. April was a major low for stocks that discounted the weak economic data we are seeing now. It was also the trough of the rolling recession that we have been in for the past three years and marked the beginning of a rolling recovery and a new bull market. For those who remain skeptical, it's important to recognize that the unemployment typically rises for 12 months after the equity market bottoms in a recession. Once the growth risk is priced, it's ultimately a tailwind for margins and stocks, as positive operating leverage arrives and the Fed cuts significantly. Based on this morning's rebound in stocks, it looks like the equity markets agree. Thanks for tuning in; I hope you found it informative and useful. Let us know what you think by leaving us a review.

Let's talk about inflation going up and what it means for Trump's economic goals....

“Russia cannot stand economic pressure”Maria Jevstafjeva speaks to Czech President, Petr Pavel about ending the war between Ukraine and Russia. Mr. Pavel was elected to the role in 2023, having retired from a military career that began with serving in the military of communist Czechoslovakia during the Cold War in the 1980s and ended three decades later after chairing NATO's Military Committee.The first military officer from the former Eastern Bloc to hold the post, he oversaw the Alliance's responses to a number of crises - including the fallout from Russia's 2014 annexation of the Crimean peninsula in Ukraine.As Russia's war on Ukraine continues into its third year, Western leaders are renewing efforts to bring an end to the bloodshed and implement a ceasefire. Mr. Pavel, who was elected on a platform of closer ties with the EU and NATO, believes the only way to do this is by getting Putin to the negotiating table - even if that means allowing Russia to occupy parts of Ukraine, but without recognising Moscow's claim to them.Thank you to Maria Jevstafjeva and Tatina Preobrazhenskaya for their help in making this programme.The Interview brings you conversations with people shaping our world, from all over the world.

The former Commissioner of Bureau Statistics weighs in on the absurdity that is Trump's decision to fire her successor following a weak jobs report; why a high-ranking U.S. official's trip to Gaza may be a substitute for action and not a call to it; and Abdi Nazemian's young-adult novel “Like A Love Story” is the subject of this week's “Velshi Banned Book Club.”

Just hours after a weak jobs report showed signs of a clear slowdown in the job market, President Trump did what he does best: fire the messenger. Senior Economics reporter for Axios, Courtenay Brown, and former Sen. Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota join The Weekend to discuss the president's direction to fire the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics and his claim that the job numbers were “rigged.” Plus, humanitarian aid groups have issued a new warning about the starvation in Gaza. Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert joins The Weekend to discuss the growing international frustration with Israel over the humanitarian crisis, as he says, “enough is enough.”

President Trump announced another list of new tariffs on more than 60 countries, an unprecedented economic move that seeks to remake the global trade system. The tariffs, which range in rates from 10 to 41 percent, will take effect next week. It comes as the jobs report came in weaker than expected, with just 73,000 added last month. Geoff Bennett discussed more with Oren Cass of American Compass. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders

Donald Trump signed an executive order modifying the tariff rates he first announced in April ahead of a Friday deadline for the new rates on imported goods to go into effect. The order states that goods imported from every nation on Earth will be subject to a 10% tariff except for goods from the 92 countries listed in an annex that are subject to higher tariff rates. The highest tariff is on goods from Syria, which will be taxed at 41%.

The Inside Economics team turned lugubrious in this week's episode. Given this week's data dump showing that inflation is uncomfortably high and accelerating, and the job market and broader economy are struggling, it's hard not to be. They also consider what it all means for the Fed, which is in an increasingly difficult position, and prospects that the economy will fall off the narrow tight rope it is on, into recession. Guest: Dante DeAntonio, Senior Director of Economic Research, Moody's AnalyticsHosts: Mark Zandi – Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, Cris deRitis – Deputy Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, and Marisa DiNatale – Senior Director - Head of Global Forecasting, Moody's AnalyticsFollow Mark Zandi on 'X' and BlueSky @MarkZandi, Cris deRitis on LinkedIn, and Marisa DiNatale on LinkedInQuestions or Comments, please email us at helpeconomy@moodys.com.

In a fiery takedown of mainstream economic pundits and globalist narratives, this commentary exposes the repeated failures of financial "experts" who predicted doom under Trump's tariff-driven economic strategy. From fake forecasts of recession to ignored trade victories, the speaker argues that elite media and institutional investors tried — and failed — to crash the market for political gain. Instead, everyday Americans held strong, Trump secured historic trade deals, and economic power was wielded through tariffs rather than missiles. This episode paints a picture of Trump's bold economic remaking of America — unapologetically confrontational, surprisingly effective, and completely ignored by legacy media.

In this fiery breakdown, the hosts revisit dire economic forecasts made by mainstream media and financial institutions about Trump-era tariffs—warnings of "Tariffmageddon" and inevitable recession. Contrary to those predictions, they highlight real wage growth, particularly among blue-collar workers, and the strongest private-sector-led economic expansion in years. The discussion shifts to Trump's aggressive energy and trade strategy, including deals with the EU, India, and Pakistan, positioning U.S. natural resources as the cornerstone of global economic power. From rare earth minerals to energy dominance, they argue it's a fast-moving, genius-level plan unfolding in real time.

This two-part broadcast delivers a fiery critique of media misinformation and political elitism while celebrating populist resilience and technological justice. In part one, the host exposes how mainstream financial outlets and globalist pundits tried — and failed — to sabotage Trump's economy, only to be proven wrong by historic trade wins and unwavering mom-and-pop investors. In part two, the spotlight shifts to South Carolina politics as Nancy Mace enters the governor's race, promising accountability and transparency in stark contrast to an absentee Governor McMaster. The segment concludes with a riveting exploration of how surveillance technology is making stranger-on-stranger murder nearly impossible — ushering in a new era where crime has nowhere left to hide.

US equity futures are firmer with S&P up ~1%. Asia was mixed and European markets opened higher. The market focus remained on post-FOMC reactions and trade actions. Powell reiterated data-dependent stance on rate path in months ahead. Trump announced a South Korea trade deal with a 15% tariff that will also apply to autos and new investment commitments of $350B in US LNG, while threatening a 25% tariff on India. Trump also watered down 50% Brazil tariffs. Economic data showed Q2 GDP growth and ADP payrolls both beating forecasts, while core PCE inflation accelerated. China PMIs showed unexpected further deterioration in manufacturing and services, reinforcing concerns over domestic demand.Companies Mentioned: AbbVie, Atai Life Sciences, JD.com, CECONOMY, CSX Corp

In this episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Alpha Warrior sort through the headlines with a critical lens. They unpack the strange optics surrounding the White House's appearance, including what might be construction activity or stage-like elements, and question why mainstream coverage avoids the topic. The conversation shifts to Ukraine, where skepticism is growing about the narrative surrounding Russia's missile strike on a nuclear facility. CannCon raises doubts about the authenticity and timing of the story, while Alpha connects the dots between perception, public distraction, and deeper agendas. They also touch on Ghislaine Maxwell's reported offer to testify in exchange for clemency, financial system pressures, and the growing undercurrent of discontent in America's institutions. Grounded in current events and media analysis, the episode invites listeners to look beyond the headlines and question the stories they're being told.

In this episode of the STR Data Lab, Jamie Lane and Bram Gallagher discuss the midyear outlook for the economy and short-term rentals. They explore the updated forecast through 2026, addressing uncertainties surrounding recent economic events, inflation trends, and stock market fluctuations. Despite mixed signals, including recent inflation data and policy disagreements, the economy remains robust with low unemployment and solid job growth. The data shows a strong start for short-term rentals in 2024, with a 5.7% demand growth and 4.6% increase in listings, leading to slightly higher occupancy rates compared to last year. Supply growth, although slower since high interest rates and house prices have cooled the market, is experiencing a rebound.  The episode highlights the variance in performance across different markets, such as urban vs. resort areas, and discusses the impacts of international and domestic demand shifts. They also delve into the impact of changing booking lead times on pacing data and future demand predictions. Gallagher forecasts continued demand and occupancy growth into 2026, while closely monitoring economic indicators, particularly inflation, for any potential disruptions. The discussion culminates in an analysis of economic prospects and the potential impact of policy changes, tariffs, and consumer confidence on the short-term rental market.

Wall Street finance and compliance expert Sean O'Malley gives us his Wisconsin common sense take on the latest economic news—raw numbers that suggest things aren't as bad as people feared they might be, but there's no clear path out of the current sluggishness.

This morning's GDP figure showed that the U.S. economy grew at an annual rate of 3% in Q2 — a higher-than-expected rebound. But there's more than meets the eye. "The headline number is showing the volatility in trade and imports and exports, but the numbers underneath are showing very much a slow slowing of the U.S. economy," says economist Kathryn Anne Edwards. We'll discuss. And later: South African entrepreneurs are bringing power generation within reach to lower-income families and small businesses.

Across these two fiery transcripts, the narrative unfolds of a dramatic economic turnaround under Donald Trump's leadership—defying dire media forecasts of "Tariffageddon." The commentary begins with the European Union folding under pressure, agreeing to buy $750 billion in U.S. goods, including LNG and agriculture, after tariffs force their hand. Then, the focus shifts to the aftermath: a 3% GDP rebound, record-breaking exports, and stunned financial pundits proven wrong. With biting criticism of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and corporate media, the speaker champions Trump's “commercial diplomacy” as the catalyst for restoring American strength at home and abroad.

Why fight with tanks when you can cripple enemies with trade? Here, Chokepoints author Edward Fishman reveals the new rules of economic warfare.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1189What We Discuss with Edward Fishman:Invisible choke points give US asymmetric power. The dollar dominates 90% of global foreign exchange, enabling sanctions on countries with no US involvement, like blocking China-Iran oil payments.Economic warfare threshold lowered, impact increased. Unlike naval blockades requiring military force, cutting countries from dollars/semiconductors imposes "just as much economic harm" with less risk.China built counter-arsenal after 2018. China now controls 99% of rare earth minerals, batteries, and clean tech supply chains, and recently forced the US to back down using export controls as leverage.US-Europe split weakens economic leverage. Acting unilaterally pushes allies toward Euro alternatives, reducing dollar dominance that enables effective sanctions against adversaries.Economic warfare offers hope over military conflict. Understanding these dynamics enables democratic participation in choosing economic tools over shooting wars.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

A groundbreaking new study published in the British medical journal The Lancet Global Health finds that unilateral economic sanctions—most of which are imposed by the United States—lead to approximately 564,000 excess deaths worldwide each year. Up to half of these deaths are children. While sanctions are often touted as an alternative to military force, this research shows they can devastate public health, cause severe food and medicine shortages, and drive mortality rates to levels comparable to those seen in armed conflicts. In fact, the findings suggest that sanctions are about as deadly as military conflicts around the world each year. Joining me to discuss this new study is one of its authors, Mark Weisbrot of the Center for Economic and Policy Research. We begin by examining his key findings and then explore how and why sanctions end up killing so many people globally. https://www.globaldispatches.org/40PercentOff Mark Weisbrot's research.
