    This week, James and Antony kick things off with a wild story out of New York City: ATMs spitting out millions in cash thanks to a government blunder. From there, they turn to political absurdities, including a congressman who thinks presidential term limits are optional. Finally, the guys dive deep into recession talk—what it really means, how it's measured, and why even the experts can't agree. Along the way, they cut through media spin, call out political nonsense, and remind listeners why economic reality is always more complicated than the headlines. Learn more about your ad choices.

    The headlines on the Wall Street Journal have been marvelling at the lack of inflationary pressure as a result of tariffs. The latest CPI announcement had the annualized rate at 2.7% against the backdrop of a weakening labor market. This is converging on the Fed's 2% target for inflation. We are looking at inflation because the Fed's interest rate policy is linked to balancing both price stability and maximizing employment. If inflation is too high, they raise rates in order to suppress demand. If unemployment is too high they lower rates to stimulate investment. Of course we know it is not just the rates which affect the economy, it's access to credit which is infinitely more important. We know that tariffs have been making headlines for most of this year. Tariffs have been in effect on a wide range of goods for many countries since April 1. There have been several delays to the implementation of tariffs which were designed to incentivize new trade deals with the US. Some of these have concluded and others like Canada and China are still in process. Last Friday the Producer Price Index was published and it showed that prices increase 0.9% for the month of July. That's a huge jump in a month. Is this all the result of tariffs? No. The services component of the PPI rose 1.1% and the goods component rose 0.7%. Tariffs are not the whole story. When I consider that companies need to maintain profitability, there are several ways they can do this. For example, retailers might hold the line on prices for goods that have tariffs attached to them. But I think the cost pressure from tariffs and the incentive to bring manufacturing to the US will have two effects.Any new manufacturing in the US will take time to implement. In the meantime, companies will have to find other ways to cut costs. If and when they do eventually bring new manufacturing to the US, it will be very highly automated to minimize the impact of higher wages in the US. With the advent of AI, manufacturers will be looking for ways to eliminate other positions in the company and reduce headcount to improve operating margins. The drive to save costs will accelerate the adoption of AI in companies and speed up the elimination of jobs. Strangely, this will have the opposite effect that the White House is hoping for. So if inflation ticks up as a result of tariffs, can the Fed do anything about it? The answer is a resounding NO. Raising interest rates won't make the tariffs go away. Increasing costs for businesses won't cause demand to fall enough to suppress prices. So the Fed would be rendered completely impotent to bring price stability from an artificial imposition of tariffs causing prices to increase. You see these economic models assume normal economic behaviour. But if the model doesn't explain the real situation on the ground, then at a certain point you have to abandon the computer simulation and look out the window to see what's happening.--------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

    In the name of “fixing” the economy, this administration has its hands deep in the market. From firing the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner to inserting itself into corporate deals and demanding a cut of it to imposing tariffs on Americans, President Trump is disrupting vital market signals. That's no place for a president, especially in what should be a free-market capitalist system (it's not).There is a place for presidential leadership—urging fiscal discipline, lowering taxes, and cutting red tape. It's encouraging to hear the president express interest in these areas, but continued actions will speak louder than words.Meanwhile, Texas' first special legislative session called by Governor Abbott to revisit bills he vetoed ended on Friday.

    When the EU and US hit Russia with fresh sanctions in 2022, many analysts expected the country's economy to crack. Instead, Russia has shown strong GDP growth, powered in large part by a massive boost to war-related industries. Now, the effects of that boost appear to be fading. Have western sanctions finally started to bite? What would happen to Russia's economy if the Ukraine war were to end? And how difficult might it be for the country's economy to return to normal? To find out, the FT's economics editor Sam Fleming speaks to Elina Ribakova.

    01:13:28 – EV Hype DeflatesHigh truck prices and waning EV demand lead to a critique of electrification promises; real‑world costs and usability concerns dominate. 01:25:32 – Musk & War TechA segment links Silicon Valley glamor to battlefield applications and even synthetic engine noise —mocking techno‑theatrics over substance. 01:36:47 – German Migration RealityReport on German schools highlights language barriers and integration failures, framed as proof elites ignore practical limits of mass migration. 01:50:44 – Homeownership SqueezeRising property taxes, insurance, and repair costs are presented as a quiet squeeze pushing families out of owning homes. 02:00:49 – American Dream RationedA mid‑show reflection on wealth concentration and mobility asks whether the “dream” is increasingly inaccessible to ordinary workers. 02:36:12 – Fed Policy & BRICS GrowthTony Arterburn critiques Trump's push to increase the money supply, arguing it creates temporary booms but long-term inflation and instability. He warns that U.S. tariff threats are driving nations like India closer to China and strengthening BRICS alliances. 02:42:12 – Russia Adds Silver to ReservesRussia's move to classify silver as a strategic reserve asset is called one of the most significant silver stories in 50 years, signaling a global shift toward commodities over fiat currencies. 02:46:47 – Housing Market BubbleDiscussion on how post-COVID liquidity and corporate purchases of real estate, especially by BlackRock, have kept housing prices artificially high and priced out many Americans. 03:00:41 – Income Tax as Control MechanismTony asserts that the income tax was designed by elites to cement their dominance and prevent competition, dismissing political promises to dismantle the IRS as empty rhetoric. 03:18:10 – Tariff History & Trump's Economic NationalismDiscussion of Trump sharing a Peter Navarro video praising historical tariff advocates like Hamilton and Clay, followed by critiques that tariffs in a de-industrialized America amount to a hidden tax on consumers. 03:27:57 – Tariffs as a Tax on AmericansCommentary stresses that with weak domestic manufacturing, tariffs raise costs on essential goods like cars and appliances, punishing citizens rather than foreign producers. 03:33:23 – Trump's Corporate Tax for DemocratsMark Cuban praises Trump for imposing a 15% revenue skim on NVIDIA and AMD chip sales to China—framed as a “progressive dream tax”—while critics note it violates constitutional limits on export duties. 03:47:14 – Swiss F-35 Deal at RiskAnalysis of how Trump's steep 39% tariff on Switzerland may backfire by prompting the Swiss to cancel a $7.5 billion F-35 order, worsening the U.S. trade deficit. 03:55:05 – Ukraine Summit & False Flag FearsTrump warns Putin of “severe consequences” if the Ukraine war continues; Russian officials accuse Kyiv of plotting a provocation to derail upcoming peace talks.
