Podcasts about Economic Outlook

We've heard enough from the pessimists. Yes, these are hard times, but what investors, business owners and all of us need right now is not more despair about the economy, but a clear roadmap towards growth and prosperity. In October 2025, Jeremy Hunt came to the Intelligence Squared stage to share his vision of how we can achieve economic renewal. Hunt's optimism is grounded in the authority of experience. As a former Chancellor of the Exchequer, Foreign Secretary and Health Secretary, he held some of the most demanding government offices during an extraordinarily turbulent time in recent history. Drawing on the themes of his new book Can We Be Great Again?, he challenged the fatalism that dominates so much of today's public debate. While candid about Britain's weaknesses, he argued that on issues ranging from European security and global trade to climate, migration and the future of democracy, the UK still has the potential to lead — if it chooses to act like a country that matters. Hunt was in conversation with BBC journalist Jonny Dymond for this instalment of the Intelligence Squared Economic Outlook series, in partnership with Guinness Global Investors. The event was a wide-ranging discussion with one of Britain's most experienced leaders on how the country can get back on track, at home and on the world stage. --- This recording is part of The Intelligence Squared Economic Outlook series of events made in partnership with Guinness Global Investors, an independent British fund manager that helps both individuals and institutions harness the future drivers of growth to achieve their investment goals.

On this epidode of The Rate Guy we're breaking down this Thursday's CPI release — why the market will probably react even though it's full of noise, what could drive the 10-year Treasury to 3.62%, and the one signal that could tell us the Fed won't cut rates at the next meeting.

On October 9, 2025, Federal Reserve Governor Michael S. Barr took the stage at the Economic Club of Minnesota's luncheon, to discuss the U.S. economy amid rising inflation and policy challenges. In his speech, “The Economic Outlook and Monetary Policy,” Barr highlighted how recent tariffs have driven inflation up, with the PCE index hitting 2.7% in August and core PCE nearing 3%. These pressures, he warned, could push inflation above 3% by year-end, complicating the Fed's 2% target. Barr gave a personal nod to his Minnesota roots by sharing that his grandmother's family ran a clothing store in Eveleth during the 1906 iron ore boom.  In a candid Q&A with Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari, Barr addressed the Fed's delicate balancing act between curbing inflation and supporting a softening labor market. With unemployment creeping up and consumer spending showing a split between robust high-income households and struggling lower-wage workers, he urged caution on further rate cuts after September's 25-basis-point reduction. The looming threat of a government shutdown added to the uncertainty, though Barr noted its economic impact remains unclear. Governor Barr was especially engaged with the students in the audience and discussed his journey and important mentors he relied on to advance in his career.

Welcome to the Complexity Premia podcast by Coolabah Capital, hosted by Christopher Joye, Chief Investment Officer and Portfolio Manager at Coolabah Capital, and Ying Yi, a Portfolio Management Director at Coolabah Capital.

You can listen on your favourite podcast app, or you can find it on Spotify, Podbean or Apple Podcasts. In this new flash episode of the Complexity Premia podcast, Chris and Ying Yi unpack the paradox facing investors today: tight corporate credit spreads against the backdrop of historically high bond yields. They explore how this dynamic is reshaping opportunities across global debt markets, the shifting balance of risk between governments and corporates, and what it all means for returns. The discussion also delves into September's market rally, Australia's inflation outlook, and how population growth and housing trends could shape the nation's economic future.

The UK economy continued to show signs of strain this week as growth indicators stayed subdued and business confidence weakened. The construction Purchasing Managers' Index rose slightly to 46.2, though activity remained weak amid soft residential and civil engineering output. Business sentiment fell to a three-year low, weighed by tax and inflation concerns, while footfall and retail demand declined. Labour market data revealed slowing wage growth and rising candidate availability, reinforcing softer employment conditions. The Bank of England (“BoE”) warned of risks from stretched artificial intelligence-related (“AI”) valuations, while policymakers Catherine Mann and Huw Pill stressed the need for restrictive policy to ensure inflation returns to target...Stocks featured:IAG, Imperial Brands and Unite GroupTo find out more about the investment management services offered by Walker Crips, please visit our website:https://www.walkercrips.co.uk/This podcast is intended to be Walker Crips Investment Management's own commentary on markets.

Episode overviewIn this special episode, hosts and Co-Chief Investment Strategists Kevin Headland and Macan Nia welcome Nathan William Thooft, Chief Investment Officer for Multi Assets and Equities at Manulife Investments. Nate shares his global perspective on markets, asset allocation, and the evolving investment landscape, with insights tailored for Canadian investors.---Key topics & insights1. U.S. economic outlook: resilience amid uncertainty· No imminent recession expected—Nate explains that while recent U.S. labor market data has softened, it's not likely a signal for an imminent recession. The U.S. economy's balance between manufacturing and services helps offset sector-specific weaknesses.· Policy uncertainty—Earlier legislative and tariff changes have caused “paralysis” in company decision-making, but clarity is expected to improve economic data in coming months.· New paradigm—The severity of future U.S. recessions may be more muted due to the economy's diversification.2. Inflation & tariffs: what's really happening?· Tariff impact delayed—Studies show tariffs typically take up to a year to affect inflation. Many imports are exempt, and companies are absorbing costs, leading to lower-than-expected inflationary effects.· Substitution effect—Companies are shifting imports to countries with lower tariffs, further dampening inflation pressures.  3. Regional equity markets: Europe & Asia· Europe's outperformance—European equities have surprised with strong returns in 2025. Nate attributes this to a sentiment shift away from the U.S. amid geopolitical uncertainty, but sees it as opportunistic rather than a long-term trend.· Active vs. passive management—Active management is especially valuable in regions like Europe and Asia, where opportunities are less covered.· China's mixed signals—Despite strong equity performance and policy support, China's fundamentals (consumer spending, industrial production) remain weak. Nate is cautiously optimistic, citing potential in technology and AI, and improving sentiment.4. Asset allocation: equities vs. fixed income· Modest equity overweight—Manulife portfolios remain overweight equities, reflecting solid fundamentals despite stretched valuations.· Fixed income caution—Less conviction in long-duration fixed income due to changing yield curve dynamics and rising term premiums.· Diversification beyond 60/40—Nate advocates for broader diversification, including alternative assets, to manage risk.5. Private Assets & Alternatives· Democratization of privates—The trend toward making private assets (infrastructure, private credit, real estate) accessible to retail investors is accelerating, as seen in recent industry partnerships.· Role in portfolios—Private assets offer diversification and potential downside protection, especially when traditional fixed income may be less effective.6. Artificial Intelligence (AI) in asset management· Efficiency & speed—AI is transforming research, data analysis, and commentary writing, but won't replace portfolio managers who bring creativity and intellectual capital.· Research revolution—AI enables analysis of vast data sets, improving productivity and decision-making.  7. Cryptocurrency: a legitimate asset class?· Growing acceptance—Nate views crypto as a legitimate asset class, though volatility and regulatory uncertainty mean exposures should remain modest and client-specific.· Regulatory trends—As demand grows, policy is likely to become more accommodating.8. Career advice for aspiring portfolio managers· Decisiveness—Don't wait for perfect information—make decisions with 60–80% of the data to avoid missing opportunities.· Passion & objectivity—Be passionate about investing, but unemotional in decision-making. The ability to cut losses and remain objective is crucial for success.---Actionable takeaways for Canadian investors· Stay diversified—Consider global opportunities and alternatives beyond traditional stocks and bonds.· Monitor policy impacts—Watch for delayed effects from tariffs and monetary policy.· Embrace active management—Especially in regions with less coverage and more inefficiencies.· Explore private assets—As access expands, these can enhance portfolio resilience.· Leverage technology—AI will increasingly support research and efficiency, but human insight remains essential.---Links & Resources · Listen to the episode: Investments Unplugged Podcast · Learn more about Manulife Investments: Manulife IM Canada---Share & SubscribeIf you enjoyed this episode, please share it with your network and subscribe for future insights on markets, investing, and portfolio strategy.---For informational purposes only.
