Podcasts about Federal Reserve

University retirement communities — where a college partners with a senior living community to provide residents access to classes, concerts, sporting events and more — are rising in the U.S. It's an attempt by some colleges to cater to the growing number of Americans over 65. We'll visit one just outside of Baltimore. Also: what a disconnect between hard data and soft data means for the Federal Reserve and how Chinese exporters are pivoting amid tariff uncertainty.

As market uncertainty continues around the Trump administration's trade policy, our Head of Corporate Credit Research Andrew Sheets reflects on the key takeaways that investors may learn from the ongoing volatility.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Andrew Sheets: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Head of Corporate Credit Research at Morgan Stanley. Today I'm going to discuss what we think we can actually learn from all of the back and forth in markets.It's Friday, May 16th at 2pm in London.One of the dominant questions of 2025 has been and continues to be: What exactly is the strategy behind U.S. tariff policy. Are these tariffs simply a negotiating tactic, designed to bring countries to the table in order to strike quick deals. Or are they something very, very different. An attempt to fundamentally reduce U.S. trade deficits, raise significant revenue, and bring production back to American shores.At a recent conference with some of our largest investors, we asked them which of these explanations they thought best applied. Well, about a quarter thought it was a negotiating tactic; another quarter thought it was that fundamental shift. And the remaining half simply weren't sure yet.Now, it's possible that this ambiguity is actually the point designed to keep trade partners guessing in order to secure better terms. It's also possible that very different views on trade exist within the administration, and we're seeing them vie for influence – perhaps almost in real time. So, amidst all this uncertainty and back and forth, it's useful for investors to try to take a step back and think what, if anything, we've learned.First, we think we've learned that markets have a pretty clear view on tariffs. Credit and equities sold off aggressively as tariffs were ramped up. They have rallied back almost as quickly as these same policies were paused or reversed. Second, this back and forth does complicate the economic data and makes it more likely that the Federal Reserve will leave interest rates unchanged, waiting for more clarity. At Morgan Stanley, we continue to think that the Fed makes no interest rate cuts this year.Third, even with the Fed doing nothing and interest rates moving around, bonds did diversify portfolios. Over the last 90 days, a portfolio of high-grade bonds, like the U.S. aggregate bond index has had just one-fifth of the volatility of the S&P 500, while at the same time delivering a higher total return. Yes, we think there is absolutely still a case for bonds to diversify within portfolios.Fourth and finally, the shock of the initial tariff announcement has passed. But there is still very real uncertainty about the economic impact, as even with the recent pauses, U.S. tariffs remain relatively high versus recent history.The next two months should start to give us the true picture of this impact – or the lack thereof – on both activity and prices. That will tell us whether the storm has truly passed through or whether we're simply in the eye of it.Thanks for listening. Let us know what you think about our thoughts in the market. You can leave us a review wherever you get this podcast. And if you like what you hear, share Thoughts on the Market with a friend or colleague today.

When it comes to fintechs getting bank charters we are entering a golden age. With zero fintech-oriented bank applications approved in the Biden administration we already have several fintechs with shiny new bank charters just a few months into the new administration. So, if you are a fintech and are thinking about bank charters now is the time.To break all this down, I was delighted to chat recently with Michele Alt, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Klaros Group. She was last on the show in 2021 and certainly a lot has changed since then. Michele takes us through the different types of charters and explains the different options for fintech companies seeking charters.On this podcast you will learn:The fundamental change in attitude for bank charters with the new administration in DC.The two paths that fintechs can take to get a bank charter.The pros and cons for each of these paths.Michele's thoughts on the SmartBiz acquisition of Centrust Bank.Why she thinks the timelines for bank acquisitions will be shorter from now on.The difference between an ILC charter and a regular bank charter.Why most ILC banks are located in Utah.Why some of the big names in fintech are applying for the MALPB charter in Georgia.Why Wyoming created the SPDI charter.How the Federal Reserve is reacting to this change in the new bank formation environment.Why some of the crypto companies are looking for federal bank charters.Michele's perspective on the big tech companies getting bank charters.What she would say if Amazon came calling looking to explore an ILC charter.What the fintech banking landscape might look like at the end of the Trump administration.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

As if the Federal Reserve and Internal Revenue Service weren't bad enough, 1913 also brought the Rockefeller Foundation into the world to deflect criticism from the recent break up of Standard Oil, to spread propaganda about how magnanamous the Rockefeller family is, act as a tax shelter, and push for eugenics in Third World countries through the rebranding of “family planning”. The Rockefeller Foundation has financed simulations and studies on the manipulation of population dynamics, propaganda, global pandemics, and authoritarian control through lockdowns set to take place by 2025. No surprise that they were very active in the promotion of the COVID vaccines, as well as the concept of Vaccine Passports. The were the group responsible for “Lockstep” in 2010, so they know the direction of global events in advance, and have for over a century.

Donald Trump is putting liberal democracy through its greatest test in 80 years.  None of it is original. His style of rule is straight from the democratic backsliders' playbook. To secure long-term power rather than short-term office, rulers must take over the institutions that check and balance majority rule and bend them to their will. Trump has tamed Congress and inserted his people into the Supreme Court, law enforcement, intelligence, and competition regulation but - to his great frustration - the Federal Reserve is holding out. It was the same story in Hungary after Viktor Orbán returned to the premiership in 2010. Bound by EU law and the mandates of the governor and his deputies, Orbán had to wait three years to break the national bank. One of those deputy governors, Júlia Király, experienced state capture from the inside and resigned with a public protest at the loss of institutional independence. Now an associate professor of finance and monetary economics at the International Business School in Budapest, she began her career under socialism at the statistics and planning offices. As deputy governor, she was part of the team that managed the Hungarian economy through the post-2007 financial crisis – an experience she chronicles in Hungary and Other Emerging EU Countries in the Financial Storm: From Minor Turbulences to a Global Hurricane (Springer, 2020).

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts: ihr.fm/3InlkL8 A Clay and Buck "See, I Told You So." The hosts discuss President Donald Trump's speech in Saudi Arabia, highlighting his efforts to secure a trillion-dollar Gulf investment in the U.S. economy. They also touch on positive economic indicators, including a drop in inflation to 2.3%, and call for the Federal Reserve to initiate interest rate cuts. "We Called It" is a Clay and Buck "See, I Told You So." A major segment of the hour is dedicated to the explosive revelations from an upcoming book by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, which alleges that President Biden’s physical and cognitive decline was so severe that aides considered he might need a wheelchair post-election. Clay and Buck argue that legacy media outlets like CNN and NBC knowingly misled the public about Biden’s condition to protect his candidacy and defeat Trump. They assert that this media cover-up is part of a broader pattern of misinformation, comparing it to the media’s handling of COVID-19 and the Russia collusion narrative. The hosts also criticize the mainstream media’s sudden shift in tone, suggesting that journalists are now attempting to rehabilitate their credibility by admitting Biden’s decline only after the election. They play a montage of past clips from CNN’s Jake Tapper, illustrating what they describe as a stark contrast between his previous defenses of Biden and his current reporting. Clay and Buck further explore the political implications of Biden’s withdrawal from the race, the Democratic Party’s internal struggles, and Vice President Kamala Harris’s perceived weaknesses as a candidate. They speculate on the strategic missteps that led to Biden participating in the June 27th debate, which they believe was a turning point in the election cycle. Trump in Saudi Arabia President Trump’s high-profile visit to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where he announced a historic $600 billion investment deal aimed at strengthening U.S.-Middle East relations. Trump’s speech emphasized peace, innovation, and a firm stance against a nuclear-armed Iran, reinforcing his administration’s commitment to global stability and economic diplomacy. South African Refugees A discussion centered on immigration, race politics, and media hypocrisy, with a spotlight on the controversy surrounding President Donald Trump’s decision to welcome approximately 50 white South African migrants into the United States. This hour dives deep into the cultural and political backlash from the left, exposing what the hosts describe as the Democratic Party’s selective outrage and racial double standards. Clay and Buck begin by highlighting the stark contrast between the left’s outrage over a small group of legal, white South African immigrants and their years-long support for millions of illegal immigrants crossing the southern border. They argue that the backlash reveals a deeper issue within the Democratic Party—what they call an entrenched anti-white sentiment and a fractured identity politics coalition that is increasingly alienating working-class and minority voters. The hosts explore the deteriorating conditions in South Africa, including racially motivated land seizures, violence against white farmers, and political rhetoric from South African leaders that openly threatens the white minority. They play clips from South African political figures and U.S. media pundits, including a controversial MSNBC segment defending land redistribution and CNN commentary suggesting white South Africans should “go back to Germany or Holland.” Clay and Buck challenge this logic, questioning how long someone must live in a country to be considered native and drawing parallels to American immigration debates. The conversation expands into a broader critique of the left’s immigration policies, arguing for a merit-based system that prioritizes skilled, English-speaking immigrants who can contribute to the U.S. economy. They compare immigration to a professional sports draft, advocating for America to “draft” the best and brightest from around the world rather than importing unskilled labor.

The Ag-Net News Hour Hosts, Lorrie Boyer and Nick Papagni, “The Ag Meter,” discuss various agricultural and economic updates. Nick and Lorrie highlighted the Federal Reserve's decision to leave interest rates unchanged, with Chairman Powell monitoring unemployment and inflation. They noted ongoing trade negotiations with the UK, Canada, Mexico, Japan, and South Korea, and potential US-China trade deals. Geopolitical conflicts in India, Pakistan, Ukraine, Russia, and Israel were mentioned. Disaster aid enrollment is underway, with livestock producers signing up by the end of the month and crop producers by July. Secretary Brooke Rollins is working on a plan to support small, family-owned farms.   The second segment, Nick and Lorrie talk about the environmental groups' petition to the Trump administration to enforce regulations on Colorado River water use, potentially reducing agricultural water allocation. The debate highlights the tension between environmental conservation and agricultural needs, with one speaker emphasizing the importance of farming for global food supply. The conversation also touches on the issue of international entities, particularly China, buying U.S. farmland, raising concerns about national security and private property rights. Suggestions for water conservation included forest management, cleaning Delta pumps, and expanding reservoirs. The hosts agreed on the complexity of the issue and the need for balanced solutions.   Finally, in the third part of the show, Nick and Lorrie talk about the Trump administration's potential involvement in managing the Colorado River, with environmentalists citing wasteful water use in agriculture. Speaker 2 dismissed climate change as weather, and supported the administration's stance. The segment also covers the impact of 145% tariffs on Chinese imports, with cargo traffic at the Port of Los Angeles down 35% and Seattle up 20%. The conversation brought out the financial benefits of tariffs, noting the U.S. makes nearly a billion dollars daily. Additionally, the discussion touched on the state of Central Valley crops and the challenges of urban development encroaching on agricultural land.

Iowa Business Report Monday EditionMay 12, 2025     Financial journalist Jordan Goodman on the impact of the Federal Reserve leaving interest rates unchanged last week.

In this podcast episode, the host welcomes back Matt Roeske, known for his study of electro culture. The conversation dives into a variety of topics, including Matt's experiences with electro culture in farming, the impact of EMF and wireless technology on health, and the importance of reducing such exposures. Matt explains his move from Scottsdale due to high cell tower density, advocating for hardwired technology over wireless solutions. The discussion moves into historical conspiracies, particularly the influence of the Rockefellers and Rothschilds on the medical and financial systems, including the creation of the Federal Reserve and the Titanic conspiracy. They explore the concept of cold electricity and its suppression, the existence of advanced past technologies, and how resets in history have manipulated societal structures. Towards the end, the host and Matt touch on practical steps for gaining independence from modern control systems, and Matt shares that he is working on a book about electro culture and energy solutions.

On this episode of The Horizon, John discusses the complex forces influencing interest rates, inflation, and investment strategy in today's real estate market. He breaks down Wall Street's predictions for Fed rate cuts, explains why the Federal Reserve is likely to hold steady due to policy uncertainty—especially around tariffs, immigration, and supply chains—and challenges the idea that waiting to buy or sell will yield better opportunities. John also explores how cap rates, treasury yields, and government deficits intersect with real estate performance, ultimately advising investors to seek deals with built-in value or value-add potential rather than attempting to time the market.

In this special bonus episode of WSJ's Take On the Week, co-host Telis Demos is joined by social-media content creator and economic commentator Kyla Scanlon, who has helped transform how younger generations, specifically Gen Z, are engaging with news about the economy and finance.  Through platforms like TikTok, Instagram and Substack, Scanlon has cultivated a dedicated audience of more than half a million people by simplifying complex economic data with creativity and humor. Recognized for coining the term “vibecession,” to highlight the disconnect between economic data and consumers, Scanlon has garnered attention from White House advisers and the Federal Reserve.  In this episode, we'll explore how economic trends like meme stocks (think GameStop and AMC) and cryptocurrencies are changing things for younger investors. Plus, we chat about best practices to consider when using social media for financial advice and how to avoid the “bad actors” that are spreading misinformation or scamming people. This is WSJ's Take On the Week where co-hosts Gunjan Banerji, lead writer for Live Markets, and Telis Demos, Heard on the Street's banking and money columnist, cut through the noise and dive into markets, the economy and finance—the big trades, key players and business news ahead.

The initial shock of the U.S. administration's tariff announcements is over, but Andrew Sheets, our Head of Corporate Credit Research, suggests the current calm could still give way to headwinds for the markets.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Andrew Sheets: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Head of Corporate Credit Research at Morgan Stanley. Today we're going to discuss whether the worst is over for markets – or whether it's just the eye of the storm.It's Friday, May 9th at 2pm in London.After extreme recent volatility, markets have bounced back, generally unwinding their losses since April 2nd. So was that it? The shock of tariff announcements and positioning adjustments may have now passed through, but the impact on the real economy is still to come. In meteorological terms, we think this may be just the eye of the storm.There are several specific bouts of potentially bad weather that we're looking at, driven by tariffs that may be about to pass through.First is the Federal Reserve. Our economists still see no cuts from the Fed this year as tariffs keep inflation elevated on our forecast. The markets in contrast are expecting more action. A scenario where credit markets face both weaker growth and a lack of central bank support remains one of our top concerns.Second is the data. So far in 2025, measures of consumer and company expectations have generally been weak, while readings of activity have tended to be stronger. Now, we think there's a good historical case that it's the expectations that tend to leave and are thus concerned that actual activity could start to soften – as it starts to be measured in a post tariff period.To this end, we're keenly watching measures like shipping and trucking activity, which could give us a better picture of the real impact. Again, a core driver of our concern, despite the economic data holding up so far, is that the impact of tariffs usually takes more time. As our economists note, tariffs historically have pushed up prices after a couple of months and pushed down growth after a couple of quarters. In short, the full storm of that impact may be yet to pass through.That thinking also lies behind our inflation views. Those more optimistic on inflation, and thus expecting more interest rate cuts from the Fed, note that the latest core inflation readings were generally fine. But in contrast, our economists remain more concerned that tariff price impacts simply haven't yet arrived in the official data, noting little change in the core inflation readings for things like goods that in theory should see the largest tariff impact. This, in our view, suggests that the impact on the underlying numbers that the Fed is looking at is still to come.The initial surprise of the U.S. tariff announcements is behind us. Things feel calmer. And the recent economic data has been relatively resilient. One scenario is this simply speaks to how resilient the U.S. economy is. But another explanation is that there's a gap between the surprise of those tariffs and their ultimate economic impact. And our concern remains that those impacts are real, driving forecast at Morgan Stanley for weaker growth, higher inflation, and later interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve than the market consensus.With credit spreads below average, we'd recommend patience. Those forecasts at these spreads could still drive turbulence.Thank you, as always, for your time. If you find Thoughts in the Market useful, let us know by leaving a review wherever you listen; and also tell a friend or colleague about us today.

Former hardcore hawk, the Bank of England pulled ahead of the Federal Reserve by rejoining the global race to the bottom. And it did so with what is being called a weird three-way split. The split was neither weird nor much of one. Instead what BoE did - and why - has already shown up here in the US. The latest confirmation comes from the Fed's very own data where job fears have exploded for the same reason(s) BoE is acting. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisBank of England MPR May 2025https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetary-policy-report/2025/may-2025FOMC Chair May 2025 press conferencehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oX4RCJJXAMhttps://www.federalreserve.gov/mediacenter/files/FOMCpresconf20250507.pdfhttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

Kerry Lutz and Jim Welsh discussed the recent market downturn, emphasizing the warning signs that indicated its vulnerability, such as perceptions of tariffs and diverging market indicators. Jim highlighted the psychological effects of a 20% decline, noting that a quick rebound can mitigate its impact. He expressed concerns about the economic divide in the U.S., where a significant portion of consumer spending comes from the top 10% of earners, suggesting that any decline in asset prices could lead to reduced spending. Both speakers agreed that the market is currently in a bear phase, with the S&P likely to revisit its April lows. The conversation also addressed the implications of the tariff war on the economy, with Jim forecasting a slowdown and rising unemployment, while questioning the stock market's preparedness for these outcomes. They discussed the inefficiencies in government spending, referencing a General Accountability Office report on waste and fraud, and commended efforts by individuals like Elon Musk to address these issues. Jim warned of a potential economic slowdown due to reduced spending and uncertainty among CEOs, while also noting the Federal Reserve's cautious approach to interest rates in response to unemployment trends. Both Lutz and Welsh expressed a cautious outlook on economic growth and the potential impacts of a strengthening dollar on gold prices.

Over the past few months, you might have been wondering to yourself, “Hey! The president of the United States is running roughshod over the rights of millions of Americans! Where the heck is Congress?” From shirking its constitutional power to regulate tariffs to Republican in-fighting over President Donald Trump's ‘big, beautiful bill,' Congress has been a bit M.I.A. In fact, in his first 100 days back in office, Trump signed fewer bills into law than any new president going back to Eisenhower in the 1950s. So… what gives? Annie Grayer, a senior reporter covering Capitol Hill for CNN, gives us the low-down on what Congress has been up to.And in headlines: A federal judge blocked the Trump administration from deporting a group of Asian migrants to Libya, the Federal Reserve kept interest rates steady because of tariff uncertainty, and India and Pakistan escalated their decades-long tensions over the disputed Kashmir region.Show Notes:Check out Brooklyn Delhi – https://tinyurl.com/42wf2hz4Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
