It looks like the market is going on vacation! Well I am too. Today we talk everything from vacation plans to shifting markets. We also cover recent crypto volatility, the resilience of Bitcoin, and concerns over MicroStrategy's stock dilution strategy, framing dips as potential buying opportunities within broader trends. We chat on quirky social trends in China, like “pretend to work” jobs for unemployed youth, and highlight Ray Dalio's view that real estate is a poor investment in today's environment with recent price drops accorss the U.S. Today we discuss... Media narratives often obscure the real developments happening quietly in the background. Stablecoins are emerging as a substitute for the dollar and could diminish banks' central role in the financial system. This shift resembles the fragmented multi-currency era before the creation of the Federal Reserve. Recent crypto markets have been volatile, with Bitcoin showing resilience despite sharp pullbacks. Ray Dalio argued that real estate is a poor investment today due to its interest rate sensitivity and immobility. U.S. real estate markets are already showing significant price declines in several regions. The administration is talking up lower rates, Trump has pushed cuts, and Powell left rates unchanged at the last meeting. Market behavior appears disconnected from economic data, undermining the usefulness of traditional reports. Government statistics are viewed as unreliable, with references to Shadow Stats' alternative takes on CPI history. Given data doubts, the focus should be on how markets and investor sentiment actually react. Seasonally, mid-August to mid-November is typically weak, and the second year of a presidency often underperforms. August and September have historically been the S&P 500's weakest months, while 2025 has so far outperformed typical post-election patterns. Personal spending is slipping, and fast-casual chains' same-store sales have fallen since Q4, suggesting strain. Housing and renovation activity looks softer versus the last five years but closer to pre-2020 norms—a reversion to the mean, not necessarily recession. Student loan and credit-card delinquencies are spiking, hinting at cash-flow stress that clashes with low unemployment data. Tariff revenues jumped from roughly $8B/month to about $29.6B/month, with companies largely absorbing costs so far. Money is chasing select commodities like gold, silver, and uranium, while others like lithium lag and could move with China trade shifts. The dollar sits mid-range historically and could sink on aggressive cuts, though today's “broken” market dynamics muddy typical cause-and-effect. Despite risks, the market's underlying tone is bullish, so a continued climb is possible on favorable policy headlines. Research notes humans rate AI higher when it agrees with them, suggesting systems learn to avoid conflict and may reinforce user beliefs.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | ProCollege Planners Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/market-is-going-on-vacation-739

Send us a textThe economic landscape is sending mixed signals to wealth builders, and your strategic positioning needs to account for these crosscurrents. Home Depot's recent earnings miss reveals a telling shift in consumer behavior that directly impacts your investment strategy. With net sales falling short at $45.28 billion and a 2.2% decline in foot traffic, consumers are clearly pulling back from large renovations in favor of small maintenance projects. This isn't just about one retailer's performance—it's a broader indicator of how rate sensitivity is reshaping spending patterns across markets.The spotlight now turns to Federal Reserve Chair Powell's upcoming Jackson Hole speech, potentially the most consequential market event this season. Markets have already priced in an 83% probability of a September rate cut, but the real question remains: will Powell signal a dovish turn or maintain a cautious stance? Treasury officials and political figures are pushing for aggressive cuts between 150-400 basis points, yet the Fed's independence will ultimately determine the path forward. Make no mistake—analysts warn that without clear dovish signals, markets could slide 7-15% this fall, making your defensive positioning critical right now.Meanwhile, the S&P's reaffirmation of the US AA+ credit rating offers temporary fiscal reassurance, with tariff revenue estimated to contribute up to $2.8 trillion, offsetting recent spending increases. However, persistent deficits exceeding 100% of GDP remain a long-term vulnerability. The rating agency explicitly cited Federal Reserve independence as the strongest defense against future downgrades—a powerful reminder that monetary policy autonomy directly impacts market stability. Whether you're repositioning for potential rate cuts, adjusting exposure to consumer cyclicals, or monitoring fiscal developments, staying informed and strategically nimble will be your greatest advantage in capitalizing on the opportunities ahead.Support the showIntroducing the 60-Day Deal Finder!Visit: www.wealthyaf.mediaUse the Coupon Code: WEALTHYAF for 20% off!

Garrett Melson says downside risks for the U.S. economy reside within the labor market. He points to recent data trends chipping away at the resilient labor market. Garrett believes that markets are already pricing in a 25bps cut and will closely monitor the Federal Reserve interest rate policy. He discusses the bifurcation between Fed governors and their concerns from potential tariff-induced price shifts. Garrett later points to the AI boom impacting equities, but wonders how long the rally can persist and how impacts the broader labor market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Wall Street is holding near its records on Monday ahead of updates later this week from the head of the Federal Reserve and several major U.S. retailers.

New federal data shows producer prices rose 0.9% in July, the largest gain in more than a year. The increases come as President Donald Trump's trade tariffs remain in place and expand. While the administration highlights tariff revenue, advocates warn the costs are hitting consumers through higher grocery and household prices. The Federal Reserve faces growing pressure as families struggle with climbing costs.

In this week's episode of WSJ's Take On the Week, co-hosts Gunjan Banerji and Telis Demos dissect the latest consumer price index data and how its results have U.S. markets asking: “Will the Federal Reserve cut rates in September?” Next, Gunjan explains how a new generation of investors are “buying the dip” when markets decline.

Send us a textThis week, Kristen and Jen dive straight into the finance headlines with a M&A story: Perplexity, an AI startup valued at $18 billion, has made a $34 billion all-cash bid for Google Chrome. Kristen unpacks why this is virtually unprecedented in dealmaking, explaining how the size mismatch, lack of financing capacity, and Chrome's not-for-sale status make the offer so unusual. They revisit the AOL–Time Warner merger as the closest (though still imperfect) precedent and debate whether this might be the “canary in the coal mine” for overheated AI valuations.Jen follows with a contrarian take on the Federal Reserve: even if the Fed cuts rates in September as the market expects, long-term interest rates might actually rise. She explains how inflation pressures, market expectations, and a “cash trap” dynamic could lead to higher mortgage rates, an unintended consequence that would frustrate borrowers hoping for relief. The discussion also touches on softening labor market signals, political pressure on the Fed, and why rate policy in a high-inflation environment can move markets in unexpected ways.The episode then shifts to signs of stress in private credit markets, focusing on the rise of “PIK” (payment-in-kind) interest arrangements. Kristin explains how PIK structures work, why an uptick, especially in “bad PIK” where struggling borrowers opt to defer cash interest, can be an early warning for financial trouble, and how this fits into the broader credit cycle. They close with a debate on networking ethics after a viral Reddit thread about circulating analyst email lists, and the importance of genuine, trust-based connections in breaking into competitive industries.For a 14 day FREE Trial of Macabacus, click HERE For 20% off Deleteme, use the code TWSS or click the link HERE!

It was a week headlined by crucial inflation data. The Inside Economics crew is joined by colleague Matt Colyar to dig into July's consumer price index. July's CPI was unsurprising, but that doesn't mean it was good. The group discusses why markets might have been too cheery about it and what they think inflation looks like in the coming months (see July's producer price index). Finally, some loquacious responses to a handful of listener questions. Hosts: Mark Zandi – Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, Cris deRitis – Deputy Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, and Marisa DiNatale – Senior Director - Head of Global Forecasting, Moody's AnalyticsFollow Mark Zandi on 'X' and BlueSky @MarkZandi, Cris deRitis on LinkedIn, and Marisa DiNatale on LinkedIn Questions or Comments, please email us at helpeconomy@moodys.com.

Stephanie Pomboy returned this morning for her biweekly macro session on Thoughtful Money and shared how it won't surprise her that, if the Federal Reserve does indeed cut rates in September, the market could enter a correction soon after.In fact, were this to happen, it would be extremely consistent with the past pattern of rate cut regimes.Much more often than not, it's once the Fed starts cutting that substantial market corrections and recessions often follow.How is she positioning for this risk?Find out by watching this video.SCHEDULE YOUR FREE PORTFOLIO REVIEW with Thoughtful Money's endorsed financial advisors at https://www.thoughtfulmoney.com#federalreserve #interestrates #inflationhedge __________________________________________________Thoughtful Money LLC is a Registered Investment Advisor Promoter.We produce & distribute educational content geared for the individual investor.

James is famous for proposing the "DOGE Dividend," which aims to reward American households for reporting government inefficiencies. He also established Incubate Debate, a non-profit organization focused on teaching debate skills to students.

Eric Stein, chief investment officer, Voya Investment Management, says that if the economy can muddle through until the Federal Reserve cuts rates, it will be positive for the stock market and the broader economy, allowing for 2026 to be another year that continues the winning streak for stocks. Stein says that he believes markets "get desensitized to similar news over time," and that the current markets may still be fixated on tariffs, but "general tariff noise" is now priced in and aren't enough to derail the market or create a recession. He says that economic changes, including the building deregulation story, will help small-cap stocks move from laggards to leaders. Matt Freund, co-chief investment officer at Calamos Investments, expects the Federal Reserve to make "a couple of cuts this year, followed by two or three cuts next year," and that those moves will be made while inflation stays at current levels or rises slightly. Like Stein, Freund thinks changes in economic conditions will help the market broaden out to include small-caps, and while he is worried about the market facing a rough patch in the fall, he said the market should be able to enter 2026 with room to run. Jeff Bishop, chief executive officer at RagingBull.com, says that when he examines the technical patterns he doesn't "see any reason to not want to continue to buy the market here." Bishop expects the market to suffer a 10 percent correction in the fall, but wind up higher. He thinks 2026 is shaping up as a year when the market could post low double-digit gains again. Plus, Chuck answers a listener's question about new rules that allow private equity, private credit, cryptocurrency and other alternative assets in retirement plans, and whether that access is really a good idea.

Despite valuations in the top decile of history, he believes the fundamentals are still good enough to justify higher prices - for now.

He also weighs in on the sectors that will feel the most pain from tariffs, including retail and some hard goods companies, and reveals where he's finding value in the market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In this podcast interview, investment manager Lawrence Leperd discusses the current economic landscape, focusing on potential signs of a "crack-up boom" and the challenges facing the US monetary system. Leperd suggests we may be entering a period of significant economic transformation, characterized by record highs in stock markets, gold, and Bitcoin, while expressing skepticism about the stability of current financial structures. The discussion centers on the Federal Reserve's potential monetary policy shifts, with Leperd believing that a new dovish Fed chairman could lead to increased money printing and inflationary pressures. He anticipates a decade of high inflation and potentially significant economic restructuring. Leperd is particularly bullish on gold, silver, and Bitcoin as hedge assets, predicting gold could reach $5,000 and Bitcoin could hit hundreds of thousands of dollars. Leperd draws parallels between the current AI investment landscape and the dot-com bubble, warning that overinvestment in AI could potentially trigger a significant economic downturn. He also discusses the possibility of a gold revaluation, suggesting that the government might eventually reset gold's value as a way to address mounting national debt. Regarding gold and silver mining stocks, Leperd sees tremendous potential for growth. He highlights that these stocks have significantly underperformed the metal prices and believes they could potentially double in the next 12-18 months as investors recognize the long-term upward trajectory of precious metals. The interview concludes with Leperd promoting his book, "The Big Print," which explores the current monetary system's challenges and offers strategies for protecting wealth during potential economic instability. His core message emphasizes the need to return to a sound money standard and prepare for potential inflationary pressures. Throughout the discussion, Leperd maintains a cautious but optimistic tone, acknowledging economic uncertainties while believing that sound assets like gold and Bitcoin offer protection against potential systemic financial challenges.

In other words, if Canadians already treated Americans fairly, then why would tariffs have a negative impact on Canada? Michael Davenport, senior economist at Oxford Economics, noted a significant reversal from June, when Canada added 83,000 jobs. “Canada's labor market snapped back to reality in July,” Davenport said. In this case, “reality” hit hard thanks to Trump's tariffs on steel, aluminum, and autos. The Canadian manufacturing sector alone lost 10,000 jobs.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump posted a video in which Navarro explained how people such as Alexander Hamilton and Henry Clay have advocated for tariffs throughout the history of the United States. Navarro noted how Hamilton believed that the U.S. “needed tariffs to defend its young industries from British domination.” “Trumpnomics' goal is not only to reduce America's trade deficit, it is to defend American workers and factories against unfair trade practices, while encouraging trillions of dollars in investment in new American plant and equipment,” Navarro says. “The policy is working for America, and no one should be surprised by this.”  Navarro continued to explain how Alexander Hamilton was the “original architect of American economic nationalism.” “In his report on manufacturers, Hamilton laid it out clearly,” Navarro continued. “United States needed tariffs to defend its young industries from British domination, and to secure true independence — not just politically, but economically. Hamilton knew that if America relied on foreign powers for manufactured goods, it would always be vulnerable.” “Decades later, Henry Clay carried Hamilton's vision forward,” Navarro continued.

In this episode of CrossPolitic, hosts Gabe Knox and Toby sit down with real estate experts Jordan Clemans and Chris Carpenter from Story Real Estate to tackle the harsh realities of today's housing market. With interest rates at 6.5%, median home prices around $400,000 nationwide, and the average first-time homebuyer now 38 years old (compared to 22 in the 1950s), the American dream of homeownership feels increasingly out of reach. The guys break down how government intervention, Federal Reserve policies, and inflated expectations have created a perfect storm that's pricing out an entire generation. But it's not all doom and gloom. Jordan and Chris present a practical three-step framework for building generational wealth through real estate. The conversation also dives into Moscow's local housing challenges, the failure of government "affordable housing" solutions, and why community-based approaches work better than top-down bureaucratic fixes.

In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nicholas Giordano sits down with economist and author Richard Salsman to dissect the myths and misconceptions surrounding capitalism. They break down how tariffs act as hidden taxes on consumers, the Federal Reserve's role in fueling inflation, and why America hasn't been a pure capitalist nation in decades. The conversation dives into the dangers of government intervention in both the economy and education, the national debt crisis, and the urgent need for school choice to restore economic literacy. This is a must-listen for anyone who wants to understand the real differences between capitalism and socialism, and how government overreach is undermining both our economy and our freedom. Episode Highlights Why America's mixed economic system is drifting further from capitalism. How tariffs, the Fed, and political manipulation of interest rates hurt everyday Americans. The education system's failure to teach the truth about capitalism vs. socialism.

On Tuesday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics released last month's Consumer Price Index, showing that prices barely rose in July. Economists had been forecasting the CPI rising by 0.2%; however, thanks to an overall drop in energy prices, the report suggests inflation appears to have plateaued. This will only bolster President Trump's calls on the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. Former Trump advisor and co-founder of Unleash Prosperity, Stephen Moore, joins to break down the positive inflation news and the future of economic data in the U.S. President Trump is reportedly weighing the decision to reschedule marijuana under federal law, possibly reclassifying it as a less dangerous drug. The methods the Trump administration may take to enact this change are varied, with some wondering whether the President will act directly or leave it to his federal agencies to handle. Former Arkansas Governor and Drug Enforcement Administration chief Asa Hutchinson joins to discuss the merits of medical marijuana, risks of drug abuse, and what role the DEA would play in the rescheduling process.

Jason and John Mauldin discuss the current state of the housing market, noting at while some areas face a shortage due to regulations and high costs, others have a surplus of homes. They highlight the impact of high mortgage rates relative to housing prices, pushing some into the rental market. Jason mentioned a record number of new apartment deliveries during the COVID-19 period, which is now subsiding, and they discussed the muted performance of the housing market overall, with some markets slightly up and others down. John suggested that sellers in many markets may need to adjust their expectations, describing a "barbell market" with high and low ends but a lack of mid-range options. https://www.mauldineconomics.com/frontlinethoughts #JohnMauldin #HousingMarket #HousingShortage #Tariffs #Homebuilders #MortgageRates #RentalMarket #ApartmentConstruction #InterestRates #Powell #Trump #FederalReserve #Inflation #Deflation #Disinflation #GovernmentDebt #GDPGrowth #Deficits #StockMarket #Dividends #PassiveInvesting #ActiveInvesting #PreciousMetals #Gold #BitcoinSkeptic #FinancialAdvice #AmericanExperiment #FreeMarkets #Crisis #DebtCrisis #AI #Robotics #Longevity #GlobalEnergy #NaturalGas #OilPrices #Protectionism #Globalization #ConsumptionTax #VAT #ThoughtsFromTheFrontLine #MauldinEconomics   Key Takeaways: 1:49 Don't be fooled by Bill Gates 2:50 John Mauldin and the housing shortage 9:58 Bitcoin and gold as insurance 11:32 Sponsor: https://www.monetary-metals.com/Hartman/ 13:31 Stock market 15:53 Inflation expectations and the bond market 18:52 The markets and geo-political noise 22:15 The American experiment is alive and well   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com
