Chris Whalen, chairman of Whalen Global Advisors and author of The Institutional Risk Analyst blog, joins The Julia La Roche Show for "The Wrap with Chris Whalen." In this episode, Chris Whalen breaks down why Kevin Hassett may have blown his chances for Fed Chair by walking back Trump's views, discusses Kevin Warsh as the emerging frontrunner, and explains his reform proposal to return to a decentralized Fed with 15 district banks focused solely on sound money. He reveals why Trump's rhetoric about interest rates is backfiring (pushing the 10-year UP instead of down), predicts a home price correction in 2027-28, and explains why 3% inflation is now the new target. Whalen also discusses why gold and silver are still in early innings, how commercial real estate pain is being quietly resolved in the background, why good bank numbers mask concerning private credit risks, and answers a viewer question about BOJ rate hikes potentially triggering a broader correction.Links: The Institutional Risk Analyst: https://www.theinstitutionalriskanalyst.com/ https://www.theinstitutionalriskanalyst.com/post/theira785Inflated book (2nd edition): https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/inflated-r-christopher-whalen/1146303673Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/rcwhalen Website: https://www.rcwhalen.com/ https://international-economy.com/TIE_Su25_Whalen.pdfTimestamps:00:00 Welcome Chris Whalen01:10 Kevin Hassett: Did he blow his chances for Fed Chair?03:38 Reforming the Fed: Decentralized model vs FDR's changes04:11 How decentralization would change Fed policy06:08 Fed must be independent of President, not Congress07:44 Post-1935 power concentration with Fed Chair08:11 How centralization distorted monetary policy09:17 Has the Fed been acting like its own hedge fund?10:30 Home price correction coming in 2027-2811:14 Subscribe reminder11:52 Trump's rate talk pushing yields UP not down12:56 Advice to Trump: Talk about growth and jobs, not rates14:09 Kevin Warsh as emerging frontrunner for Fed Chair15:17 Scrap the dual mandate, focus on sound currency16:41 CPI print this week: 3% is the new target17:23 Raising conforming limits encourages more inflation18:42 Gold, sound money, and what Treasury should do20:14 Is sound money viable?21:33 Roosevelt's New Deal legacy and today's problems22:53 Silver all-time high, gold north of $4,300 - still early innings24:22 Commercial real estate pain and which banks are exposed27:10 Private credit, NDFIs and why good bank numbers are concerning29:37 Inflation driving everything in New York and beyond30:22 Viewer question: BOJ rate hikes and impact on risk assets31:44 Wrap up, year-end predictions preview and where to find Chris

Mike Dickson sees a solid macro backdrop into 2026 and thinks the rotation trade may continue as earnings broaden. “We're pretty close to neutral” on rates, he argues, adding that it “doesn't really matter” who the next Fed Chair is. Absent weakness in the labor market, he expects the committee to continue a “tug of war.” He breaks down sectors he's watching for next year, including tech and healthcare. Margins will be the most sensitive area to watch, he concludes.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com focuses on medical freedom and political obstacles, with John Rush joined by Dr. Kelly Victory and Steve House. The hour examines why prominent medical and policy voices are suppressed and why reforms face strong resistance. Dr. Victory breaks down the ongoing fight over vaccine policy and medical censorship. She explains why treatments like ivermectin were aggressively dismissed despite real-world results. Steve House pulls back the curtain on the political and financial machinery behind health care. He exposes why hospital billing feels intentionally incomprehensible—and who profits from that confusion. The conversation then shifts to the 2026 midterms, with clear warnings about internal party struggles, selecting candidates, and the risks of prioritizing ideals over practical strategy. Can Republicans win without unity and a realistic approach? What if broken systems—medical, political, and media—are never examined openly? HOUR 2 Hour 2 of Rush To Reason spotlights immigration enforcement, featuring Ammon Blair of the https://TexasPublicPolicyFoundation.com. The discussion centers on state and local cooperation with ICE, how education and incentives can improve enforcement, and the debate over humane immigration policy. The hour then pivots to Colorado politics as John examines new state laws taking effect in 2026, questioning whether they protect citizens or quietly undermine property rights and personal responsibility. From tenant-landlord rules to gun show regulations, the discussion warns of unintended consequences that could worsen housing shortages and fuel government expansion. Listener calls push the conversation deeper, asking a sobering question: are these policies about compassion—or control? HOUR 3 Hour 3 delivers a wide-ranging, hard-hitting conversation that challenges prevailing narratives on government power, economics, and cultural change. John Rush is joined by Jerzee Joe (https://www.youtube.com/@jerzeejoe3145), who draws stark parallels between U.S. policy debates and the real-world consequences seen in Europe—from failed government housing projects to crime statistics tied to mass immigration. Are America's leaders ignoring lessons already written in history? The hour then shifts to a deep economic breakdown with Scott Garliss of Bent Pine Capital (https://www.bentpinecapital.com/), who dissects the Federal Reserve's latest rate cut. Did the Fed stay too tight for too long—and are they now quietly reversing course to avoid a liquidity crisis? John and Scott explore inflation, growth forecasts, quantitative tightening, and the high-stakes question of who Donald Trump may select as the next Fed Chair. Finally, the hour closes with concerns over government accountability, as callers question whether federal programs meant to help small businesses are instead enriching powerful corporations. Is the system course-correcting—or simply reacting too late? Hour 3 pulls no punches and leaves listeners with critical questions about who's really steering the economy and the country's future.

John Rush is joined by Jerzee Joe (https://www.youtube.com/@jerzeejoe3145), who draws stark parallels between U.S. policy debates and the real-world consequences seen in Europe—from failed government housing projects to crime statistics tied to mass immigration. Are America's leaders ignoring lessons already written in history? The hour then shifts to a deep economic breakdown with Scott Garliss of Bent Pine Capital (https://www.bentpinecapital.com/), who dissects the Federal Reserve's latest rate cut. Did the Fed stay too tight for too long—and are they now quietly reversing course to avoid a liquidity crisis? John and Scott explore inflation, growth forecasts, quantitative tightening, and the high-stakes question of who Donald Trump may select as the next Fed Chair. Finally, the hour closes with concerns over government accountability, as callers question whether federal programs meant to help small businesses are instead enriching powerful corporations. Is the system course-correcting—or simply reacting too late? Hour 3 pulls no punches and leaves listeners with critical questions about who's really steering the economy and the country's future.

You could call this an early Christmas gift. A delayed September PCE report was released last week, focusing on core inflation—a price measure closely watched by the Federal Reserve. It came in cooler than expected, which is encouraging for the Trump administration, as it has been pushing the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates. While attention is on this week's rate decision, eyes are already on next year. You could say the current Fed Chair, Jerome Powell, is on Trump's naughty list, and the nominee to replace him will likely be named in early 2026. What will that mean for the direction of monetary policy? Kenny Polcari, the Chief Market Strategist at Slatestone Wealth, shares insights on what investors are expecting from the Fed this week, who they think may replace Powell, and what to anticipate from the markets in the final weeks of 2025.

Chris Whalen, chairman of Whalen Global Advisors and author of The Institutional Risk Analyst blog, joins The Julia La Roche Show for "The Wrap with Chris Whalen." Whalen breaks down what's ahead for the Federal Reserve and financial markets as we head into 2026. He discusses Kevin Hassett as the likely next Fed Chair, explaining why Fed independence is more myth than reality and how political pressures will influence rate decisions ahead of the midterm elections.

US President Trump indicated that a nominee for Chair of the Federal Reserve has been selected (though without giving a name). Senate confirmation is assumed by the markets, as none of the supposed candidates are so radical as to merit independent Senate action. Fed members have been showing increased independence in policy votes, however, which may blunt the impact of the Fed Chair on policy direction.
With fifteen relevant trading days remaining for 2025, investors over the next few weeks will be watching for key economic data releases, a potential Fed rate cut, and a possible announcement of the new Fed Chair. Jason drops by to explain what this all could mean for the markets and investment outlook. Featured is Jason Draho, Head of Asset Allocation Americas, UBS Chief Investment Office.
