You would think this would be McDonald's moment. When household budgets are under pressure, when consumers are trading down, and when price suddenly means everything, McDonald's should be thriving. It's not. This isn't happening in isolation. Consumer confidence plunged – and I mean plunged - in September to its lowest level since 2014—and that's according to the Conference Board, typically the most optimistic of the major confidence surveys.

Just months after PepsiCo slashed prices by as much as 15% to win back cash-strapped shoppers, the company is preparing to **raise** them again. The cuts were supposed to revive demand after prices for some bags of chips climbed above seven dollars. But they didn't work. In July, the company admitted consumers were under even more strain than expected.Now Pepsi is trapped.

The Treasury market is doing something it has only done on 5.4% of the time over the last 36-plus years. In broad terms, the yield curve is unusually steep at the front and unusually flat at the back.

India just attracted an extraordinary amount of foreign money into its banking system. And yet the rupee is moving back toward its record low. Then there's Japan. The Bank of Japan just raised its policy rate to the highest since 1995. And yet the yen is approaching 160 per dollar again.So India attracted dollars and the rupee still fell. Japan raised rates and the yen still fell.Meanwhile, China has done almost the opposite.

Private credit defaults have officially reached a record. According to Fitch Ratings, the default rate rose to 6.3% in August, exceeding the previous record set only one month earlier. But the most important number may not be 6.3%. It may be Fitch's 45%. And that reveals the bigger story, one about liquidity and tightening.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this episode, we dive into the Federal Reserve's most recent – and highly anticipated – decision to raise the federal funds rate by a quarter-point, its first hike since July 2023. While policymakers cite robust economic data—resilient consumer spending, strong productivity growth, and steady unemployment rates—our discussion questions whether the Fed's view reflects the reality felt by everyday Americans, especially those struggling on the so-called “wrong side of the K.” With supply shocks, ongoing geopolitical turmoil, and an energy crisis mounting, is the Fed's approach truly tackling inflation or simply following a playbook that doesn't match today's unique challenges? We'll break down why sentiment may matter more than statistics, the potential consequences of missing growth targets, and whether this rate hike is the right call in a deeply divided and uncertain economy. Plus, we bring in insight from Jeff Snider of Eurodollar University to explore what consumer confidence and labor force participation are really telling us beneath the surface. Stick around as we unpack the risks, the data, and what this all could mean for your financial future.Special thanks to Jeff Snider At Eurodollar University! https://www.youtube.com/live/sHNNc4eu4ls?si=MEMKjqwermrhSIi9What's up, everybody?

More Americans now believe unemployment will rise than at any point since April 2020. Not inflation. Unemployment. And that's according to, yes, the Federal Reserve. At the same time, consumers believe that if they lose a job, finding another one quickly will be nearly impossible. That fear is already showing up in what households are already doing - and how rates are really being priced.

Most people believe the private-credit mess has gone away – because that's what you're led to believe. It has been roughly a year since Tricolor and First Brands became the warning signs—the first cockroaches suggesting something much larger might be hiding inside the walls of private lending. And because there hasn't been a dramatic collapse since then, the assumption is that the industry absorbed the losses, restricted a few withdrawals, and moved on.But the truth is almost the exact opposite.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

Everyone believes the energy shock is about oil. It isn't. The most important price in energy today isn't really the price of crude.

J-Hole jolted the markets, only to have Warsh's J-Hole narrative jolted right back with JOLTS.

What is happening inside Mark Walter's financial empire - which until recently included the LA Lakers - has the potential to blow the lid off the entire private credit story - if not the whole debt cycle. A billion-dollar loan connected to Guggenheim Investments is trading at roughly 73 cents on the dollar, a price normally associated with serious distress.

Ray Dalio says the United States is approaching a debt crisis, or maybe is already in one. The government knows UST demand is becoming a problem, so the argument goes, and it is quietly trying to control the bond market with buybacks before the situation gets out of control.But what you probably don't know is that there are ways to test Ray Dalio's warning.

Special Thanks To Jeff Snider From Eurodollar University. Check out the video:https://youtu.be/ams5suvGO8I?is=d5vCrI9g0uaRyDOVWelcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In today's episode, we break down the growing economic turmoil facing the world's two largest economies: the United States and China. With both nations experiencing troubling trends—China hit by a historic pullback in lending and government borrowing, and the U.S. seeing a sharp drop in consumer spending—our guest, Jeff Snider of Eurodollar University, helps us unravel the complex interplay between banking systems, government policy, and national psychology.We'll explore why China's hidden debt crisis and the CCP's response could trigger global ripple effects, how low interest rates signal trouble rather than prosperity, and the critical role expectations play in shaping economic outcomes. Drawing vital parallels between China, Japan's “lost decade,” and the current state of the U.S., we'll discuss what these shifts mean for the future—and for your own financial strategy in uncertain times. Strap in as we connect the macroeconomic dots and reveal why understanding these currents is essential for anyone aiming to thrive in a volatile world.Cash App: Download Cash App Today: https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/v6nymgjl #CashAppPod*Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

Blaming Amazon's Prime Day, everyone is trying to work around yet another "unexpected" negative number. Following an "unexpected" drop in July payrolls, the Census Bureau now reports an "unexpected" drop in retail sales alongside an "unexpected" setback in consumer confidence and, yes, an "unexpected" decline in gasoline usage during peak driving season. None of this is unexpected, just the work of more mini-cycles.
