Sean Brodrick, Editor of Wealth Megatrends and contributing analyst to Weiss Ratings Daily, joins us to outline why he is not convinced in the Wall Street narrative that the worst parts of the tariff implications are behind us, based on macroeconomic data he is following including the weakness in the US long bond, US dollar, and business guidance through year end. He is only holding the highest conviction sectors like gold, precious metals stocks, dividend paying mid-tier oil and gas stocks, and utility stocks, in this continued environment of uncertainty. We start off discuss the continued challenges to trade barriers, issues with the US deficit and increased debt loads, and international buyers still scaling out of US markets to repatriate funds into their own domestic stock markets. Sean has been bullish European defense stocks, South American fintech and water stocks, and even Canadian stocks, although he's not yet transitioned to buying Japanese stocks at this point. He is not convinced that large US tech stocks are in the same kind of safe upward trajectory that they have been for years and believe AI and other foreign platforms may be a threat to some domestic large-cap tech stocks. With regards to the commodities sector, Sean is constructive that this recent pullback in gold has been a buying opportunity and is still bullish both gold and silver stocks in the medium-term. He is also is getting interested in accumulating the better run intermediated oil and natural gas stocks that pay good dividends and may be the acquisition targets of the larger energy companies. He likes nat gas power as a bridge energy for big data companies and AI, and still sees value in the utility stocks. This leads into a discussion on why he's still bullish in the longer-term for copper and copper equities, but doesn't feel it is as imminent or urgent to get positioned.

The current average price for a gallon of regular gas is $3.17, and no state has an average gas price of $1.98, as per Trump's claim. GasBuddy could find no gas station in the country selling gas at that price contradicting Trump's made up numbers.

A historic gap between consumer sentiment and economic data is raising concerns about future tech spending. Despite positive economic indicators, such as a steady unemployment rate and a slight increase in the Consumer Price Index, consumer confidence is faltering, as evidenced by a significant drop in the Consumer Sentiment Index. Analysts from Bank of America have noted that this disconnect, the widest on record, suggests that businesses, particularly in sectors sensitive to consumer demand, may become more risk-averse in their tech investments. This could lead to longer sales cycles and a shift in budget approvals for tech solutions. The delivery of cloud services is evolving, with a focus on outcomes rather than just uptime. A recent survey by the International Data Corporation emphasizes that managed service providers (MSPs) must prioritize customer success and align their services with clients' business objectives. As cloud technology becomes more integral to business transformations, MSPs are encouraged to move beyond traditional service level agreements (SLAs) and adopt a value-oriented approach. This shift is crucial to avoid commoditization and maintain profitability in a competitive market. TD Cinex has introduced a new Partner Loyalty Program aimed at strengthening relationships with business partners through rewards similar to consumer loyalty programs. This initiative reflects a growing trend in the industry, where partners increasingly value loyalty incentives over traditional vendor benefits. However, there is skepticism regarding the effectiveness of such programs, as some partners argue that consistent pricing and margin protection are more critical than loyalty perks. The challenge for vendors and distributors will be to ensure that these programs deliver tangible value rather than merely serving as marketing optics. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has retracted a controversial AI research paper that claimed artificial intelligence enhances productivity in research settings. The paper, which suggested that AI tools led to increased discoveries but decreased job satisfaction among researchers, faced scrutiny from both economists and computer scientists. MIT's decision to withdraw the paper signals a growing skepticism towards AI productivity claims, indicating that the market will demand more verifiable and transparent evidence before accepting AI as a driver of innovation. This development is seen as a positive step towards ensuring the integrity of research in the field of artificial intelligence.

Michelle Gibley gives viewers the state of global central bank policy. “Trade policy is really influencing action at most central banks,” she says, noting that the Bank of Japan cut its inflation forecast and Canada's central bank paused its cycle. She also talks about the “distortions” in economic data as companies and consumers pull forward demand ahead of tariffs, adding this could create a “vacuum” of useful data in the future. Michelle emphasizes the need for clarity on trade around the world.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

The ways that statisticians and governments measure the economy were developed in the 1940s, when the urgent economic problems were entirely different from those of today. Diane Coyle argues that the framework underpinning today's economic statistics is so outdated that it functions as a distorting lens, or even a set of blinkers. When policymakers rely on such an antiquated conceptual tool, how can they measure, understand, and respond with any precision to what is happening in today's digital economy? Coyle argues that to understand the current economy, we need different data collected in a different framework of categories and definitions, and she offers some suggestions about what this would entail. Diane Coyle is a Professor of Public Policy at the University of Cambridge and author of The Soulful Science: What Economists Really Do and Why it Matters and GDP: A Brief but Affectionate History. Her new book is The Measure of Progress: Counting What Really Matters. Read Diane Coyle's new article for Skeptic.

Ted Thatcher thinks we can “get back to a steady scenario quickly” as soon as markets get clarity on trade. In the meantime, he's looking at opportunities in gold and is watching Powell closely.

The opening monologue deal with the essence of playing trivia. I use this backdrop to frame so much of what is happening in our world and how so many people are so sure of things that are just not true. I think we should all govern ourselves on how much we “know” versus how much we “believe” we know. We move to a comment from Peter St. Onge about the economy and how the Left is suddenly more focused on pushing “soft” data versus “hard” economic data. We this dive into a piece by Victor Davis Hanson about Donald Trump his his attempt to wage this counter-revolution against all that has come before, especially the last 20 years since Obama pledged to fundamentally transform our country. The United States isn't the only Western democracy practicing lawfare, Democrats are just not as good at it as some of our other European allies. Marine LePen seems to be the latest victim of this disturbing trend among populists. To add to the cultural divide between the US and the UK, it seems a 3-4 year old was dismissed from the nursery because they “misgendered” another toddler. It's stunning to see how far the Woke mind-virus has spread. We then spend some time with a presentation shared over the weekend by Elon Musk and Antonio Gracias. They found the proof of what I have been stating for years about the Democrat party's intentions to create a permanent underclass of voters by opening the floodgates at our southern border. I close with a reminder that we have to be patient with AG Bondi and FBI Director Patel. They will not be afforded the luxury of mistakes or missed steps. They won't even be believed for a truthful case. They need a case to rock-solid and airtight that it will defy all attempts by the Left to paint it as nothing more than political retribution.

From the controversy at Columbia University over free speech to the latest Senate budget resolution and the shifting global power dynamics, this episode explores the policies, ideologies, and leadership decisions that are shaping America's future.Topics Discussed in This Video:- Columbia University Protests & The Free Speech Debate: Paul Johnson and his panel discuss the expulsion of Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia University student who lost his green card after leading a controversial protest. Is this a violation of free speech, or a justified consequence of illegal actions? The panel weighs in on the parallels to the January 6th Capitol riots and the broader implications for freedom of expression.- The Senate Budget Resolution & America's Growing Deficit: With government spending at an all-time high and debates over the national deficit intensifying, Paul, Bob, and Henry break down the latest Senate budget resolution. Is there a path to fiscal responsibility, or are both parties locked in a cycle of excessive spending with no real solution in sight?- Wall Street vs. Main Street – What's Really Driving the Economy?: As consumer sentiment fluctuates and the stock market faces turbulence, the discussion turns to whether America's economic policies favor Wall Street elites or everyday citizens on Main Street. Does government intervention help or hurt? How does inflation impact working-class Americans? The panel offers insight into the economic strategies of both Trump and Biden.- Trump's Foreign Policy & The Future of Global Alliances: Is Trump's approach to NATO and Ukraine a calculated move to shift U.S. strategic focus to China, or a dangerous policy of appeasement? With America's global influence in question, the panel examines the impact of Trump's stance on military alliances, international relations, and the shifting world order.- Is America Becoming More Isolationist?: While some argue that America is retreating from the world stage, others believe it's a necessary shift toward self-reliance. The panel explores the potential consequences of withdrawing from global commitments, how Europe is reacting, and whether the United States can truly afford an isolationist stance.
Earlier this week, our Industry All-Access (https://brewingindustryguide.com/subscription/) subscribers received in their email inbox this week's subscriber-exclusive article that Kate reported, parsing the latest industry economic data but reading beyond the surface for a deeper look at what's really going on. We've all read the hyperbolic clickbait articles out there about craft beer's demise, and for the first time in almost twenty years, we saw a net decline in operating breweries in the United States last year. But at the same time, we've been hearing anecdotally from a number of brewers such as Neil Fisher of WeldWerks, in episode 400, that they were growing despite the significant headwinds. This cognitive dissonance got us thinking about how data purport to tell certain truths, but that “truth” is limited by the nature of how data are collected. Craft beer in the United States is both big and small, but our primary sources of data address only the biggest channels of the craft-beer business, leading to distortions in perception that could potentially have damaging effects for craft beer as a whole. With that in mind, Kate sought out some answers to the questions we had—does this meta-narrative we've been reading have truth to it, does it accurately describe the reality that craft brewers are facing, do other data that suggest different or more varied truths, and what can we take away to build a fuller picture of the current state of craft beer?
