P.M. Edition for Oct. 2. The U.S. economy added 29,000 jobs last month, falling short of expectations. Journal economics reporter Konrad Putzier discusses why that's a more solid number than it may seem… and what it means for the Fed's next meeting later this month. Plus, the G-7 countries agree to release 100 million barrels of diesel and oil to help ease soaring prices. We hear from reporter Matthew Dalton about why that seems to end the threat of a U.S. ban on diesel exports, at least for now. And the Journal has learned that Oman had previously banned the FlyDubai attacker from flying over his radical views. Alex Ossola hosts. Sign up for the WSJ's free What's News newsletter.

P.M. Edition for Oct. 1. The Justice Department is reviewing whether prosecutors mishandled the Watergate case, decades after the scandal led to Richard Nixon's resignation. WSJ White House reporter Philip Wegmann explains that the review comes as more conservatives, including President Trump, show renewed interest in Nixon's legacy. Plus, mortgage rates had their biggest weekly increase in four years, tracking the sharp recent rise in U.S. bond yields. Markets reporter David Uberti discusses why more ships moving through the Strait of Hormuz haven't done more to send gas prices and bond yields lower. And that global bound rout got messier today, as investors started picking winners and losers in different countries. Alex Ossola hosts. Sign up for the WSJ's free What's News newsletter.

Could you be spending more in retirement than you think? On this episode of the Retire Sooner Podcast, Wes Moss and Christa DiBiase dig into new research on retiree spending, a possible comeback for pensions, and a wide-ranging batch of listener questions about saving, investing, and planning for the future. · Explore research suggesting many retirees may underspend, and why money that arrives as an income stream may feel easier to spend than money pulled from savings. · Climb the "yield ladder" and see how dividends and interest from different types of investments may factor into retirement income. · Examine why more employers seem to be offering pensions again, and how cash balance plans may differ from traditional pensions. · Unpack where extra cash flow may go once the mortgage is paid off, from Roth 401(k) catch-up contributions to brokerage accounts. · Learn when a 529 plan may be "enough," and how Trump accounts and future Roth conversions may fit into a child's long-term savings. · Review how withdrawals from a 403(b) with both pretax and Roth money may be taxed. · Compare investing a lump sum all at once versus dollar-cost averaging over time. · Follow how the U.S. government and Federal Reserve may add money to the system, and what that may have meant for post-COVID inflation. · Discover options for people aging alone, including financial powers of attorney, professional fiduciaries, and trust companies. From Jean Chatzky's new book on retiree spending and pensions to 529s, Roth conversions, and estate planning, Wes and Christa take on some of the money questions many listeners may be facing.

Mary Jo recaps two big things: a must-read book for understanding our money system, and her refresher training in Houston on the Truth Concepts calculators. If you've read Becoming Your Own Banker and gone down the rabbit hole of fractional reserve banking, "Creature From Jekyll Island" by G. Edward Griffin is the next start — how $1 in the bank lets the system borrow $10, why that devalues our dollar, and who met on Jekyll Island to pass the Federal Reserve Act. Mary Jo also breaks down why crypto is not the answer for her, what really happens to a whole life insurance infinite banking policy if the dollar crashes, and how she'd use policy loans to buy land, drill wells, and buy real assets instead of holding paper dollars. Then the Houston part: Todd Langford created his calculators to prove Nelson wrong on the infinite banking concept — and got proven wrong. Mary Jo shares the refresher on qualified plans / 401ks for business owners, future requirements ($10-30M in tomorrow's dollars), taxes vs. rate of return, and the unseen rate of return when you borrow to create infinite banking explained cash flow externally. Bottom line: don't just park money. Use it entrepreneurially to make more money.

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast: 1) A FlyDubai aircraft was attacked by one of its pilots, who stabbed or hit the other pilot with an ax, before being overwhelmed by passengers. The plane made an emergency landing at a Saudi airport after taking a sudden steep dive, and the United Arab Emirates attorney-general has ordered an investigation into the incident. The investigation will examine the circumstances and motives behind the attack, including whether it was linked to any terrorist activity, and the airline has suspended flights to and from Israel while the investigation continues. 2) President Trump said former Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell should resign from the central bank's Board of Governors over findings the central bank mismanaged the renovation of its headquarters. The Fed's internal watchdog found no evidence of criminal wrongdoing and didn't identify any "administrative misconduct" connected to the $2.4 billion project, but outlined a series of management missteps that caused the project's cost to balloon. Trump directed Attorney General Todd Blanche to study the inspector general's report "and make a determination as to what to do," and said Powell should be forced to resign or sued by the United States Government for "corruption or incompetence." 3) The US benchmark yield climbed to the highest since 2002 as rising oil prices drove a renewed selloff in global bonds. Government debt has been flailing around the world as elevated oil prices ripple through the global economy, pushing investors to bet central banks will further raise interest rates. Investors will seek clues on the US economy's health and the next Federal Reserve steps from Friday's payroll numbers and a list of Fed speakers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Mortgage rates today, housing market news, and Federal Reserve analysis — explained in plain English by a mortgage loan originator with 38 years in the business. No hype. Just real data and practical next steps.
Politico reported that Jerome Powell is likely to remain at the Federal Reserve beyond his four-year Chair term, which ended in February 2026, because he holds a Board seat through January 31, 2028. The Chair must be selected from among sitting Governors and confirmed by the Senate, with Vice Chair Philip Jefferson serving as Acting Chair if the position is vacant. Powell has previously secured bipartisan Senate confirmations, including an 80 to 19 vote in May 2022. The policy context includes inflation peaking at 9.1 percent in June 2022 and rates rising to 5.25 to 5.5 percent by July 2023. Leadership continuity can stabilize markets, influence bank supervision under Michael Barr, and affect lending conditions for businesses. Founders can plan by modeling steady communications, laddering debt maturities, and monitoring personnel alongside inflation and employment data.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

Micron Technology beat Wall Street expectations, highlighting ongoing demand for high bandwidth memory and DDR5 used in AI servers. The S&P 500 is testing a support area as rising Treasury yields compress equity valuations and strengthen the dollar. Supply dynamics at Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix, and Micron shape memory pricing and margins across the cycle. Higher rates raise benchmarks for corporate borrowing, venture debt, and private credit, while public market volatility narrows the IPO window. Cloud providers such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud may pass through hardware cost pressures via pricing and access policies. Founders should watch labor and inflation data, Treasury auctions, Federal Reserve communications, and upcoming semiconductor earnings to adjust plans on pricing, capacity, and capital.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

The recent Federal Reserve rate hike has sent shockwaves through the bond market, pushing the 10-year Treasury yield to highs not seen since 2007. This sudden rise in borrowing costs has priced many potential buyers out of the housing market while severely tightening the cost of capital for real estate investors and businesses.Despite these broader macroeconomic headwinds, the artificial intelligence and semiconductor sectors continue to experience massive rallies, effectively keeping the stock market afloat. We also explore the five sequential phases of a real estate market correction and why holding out for a total housing crash might leave prospective buyers waiting indefinitely.KEY TOPICS DISCUSSED01:04:32 The Federal Reserve interest rate policy mistake and its direct economic impacts01:17:49 Surging 10-year Treasury yields and extreme bond market volatility01:41:10 The five distinct phases of a real estate market correction using the Mueller model01:10:21 Artificial intelligence stock resilience and the ongoing semiconductor boom01:29:14 Geopolitical tensions impacting oil prices, bond yields, and core inflation data01:49:36 Q3 Bitcoin performance and the future of cryptocurrency regulation via the Clarity ActKEY TAKEAWAYSThe latest Federal Reserve rate hike has stifled the housing market and escalated the cost of capital without successfully slowing down the AI sector.The housing market is currently transitioning into a correction phase where transaction volume gridlocks and builders begin offering aggressive price concessions.AI and semiconductor equities are defying high borrowing costs because their potential return on investment far outweighs current interest rates.Relying solely on historical real estate gains is risky; diversifying across asset classes provides critical downside protection during economic shifts.Geopolitical conflicts are artificially inflating oil prices and bond yields, meaning a resolution could trigger a rapid drop in rates and a subsequent market rally.CONNECT & TAKE ACTIONExplore luxury living and investment opportunities at Skyline OC by visiting skylineocresidences.comText "X-RAY" to 844-777-1434 for a complimentary investment portfolio review to check fees and restructure your strategy.Text "INCOME" to 844-777-1434 to receive the full investor presentation for the Imagos Income Fund and generate consistent monthly passive income.
Today we bring the AI fake news as we talk the growing impact of AI on investing, education, privacy, creativity, and everyday life. AI can improve research and productivity but it's also flattening individual creativity, encourage overreliance, and create risks when users feed sensitive information into public AI models. We explore the importance of protecting private data, keeping valuable information separated from AI tools, and using AI as a supplement rather than a substitute for learning and critical thinking. We also talk rising interest rates, inflation, oil prices, tariffs, market volatility, global financial pressures, and the risks of becoming emotionally attached to an investment thesis. We discuss... How AI can make research, content creation, and productivity easier, but it can also flatten creativity and make everyone's work look the same. The "golden rule" of AI is to avoid using it to save yourself time by wasting someone else's time with low-quality content. Overreliance on AI can prevent people from developing the knowledge, skills, creativity, and critical thinking that come from doing the work themselves. Sensitive personal, financial, business, and intellectual property information should be kept away from public AI models because data shared with AI may not remain private. Open-source AI models are becoming increasingly capable and can provide alternatives to expensive frontier models. AI is disrupting education as students increasingly rely on it for homework and assignments, raising concerns about declining math, reading, problem-solving, and critical-thinking skills. AI may be most useful as leverage for existing knowledge rather than a replacement for learning and independent thinking. Changing expectations for another Federal Reserve rate hike and the potential effects of tighter monetary policy on employment, housing, and markets. Market strength beneath the surface, including technology and AI leadership, institutional positioning, short covering, and risks in emerging markets.

The major indexes remain near record territory, but beneath the surface, the picture is considerably more complicated. Technology continues to provide important support while market breadth has weakened, Treasury yields remain elevated, and small- and mid-cap stocks have faced greater pressure. Meanwhile, investors are weighing the Federal Reserve's latest rate hike, higher bond yields, oil prices, stretched areas of the market, Nvidia's massive stock buyback, and questions about whether Technology can continue carrying so much of the market's weight.

The major indexes remain near record territory, but beneath the surface, the picture is considerably more complicated. Technology continues to provide important support while market breadth has weakened, Treasury yields remain elevated, and small- and mid-cap stocks have faced greater pressure. Meanwhile, investors are weighing the Federal Reserve's latest rate hike, higher bond yields, oil prices, stretched areas of the market, Nvidia's massive stock buyback, and questions about whether Technology can continue carrying so much of the market's weight. Lance Roberts & Danny Ratliff take your questions directly from the YouTube live chat and discuss what these developments could mean for markets, portfolios, interest rates, bonds, retirement planning, and the economy. 0:00 - INTRO 0:56 - Last day of the Quarter; Friday is Employment Day 2:18 - JOLTS Report - Labor Hoarding 6:10 - Markets Continue to Consolidate; Breadth is Very Weak 7:51 - The Set up for a Year End Rally 10:46 - When you're right...and keeping score 13:00 - Cash on Hand? 13:46 - Investor Sentiment Then & Now 15:27 - What about Utilities Now? 16:20 - RSP vs SPY? 17:24 - Interest Rate Sensitive Small- & Mid-caps? 19:08 - When Trading Patterns Fail?

"Gold now has a new competitor for a safe haven investment which is treasuries." This episode breaks down why gold prices fell even after President Trump rejected a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and oil prices jumped back up, a reaction that runs opposite to how gold usually behaves during bad economic news. He explains why investors moved into Treasuries instead, and why that shift signals a bigger change in how money is looking for safety in this economy. Jaspreet Singh walks through why Treasury yields hitting their highest levels in more than two decades matters far beyond the bond market, touching the national debt, mortgage rates, car loans, and credit card rates, and what the Federal Reserve's expected rate hikes in October and December could mean next. In this episode, you'll learn: Why President Trump rejected Iran's offer to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and how that pushed oil prices back up Why gold fell instead of rising during this news, and why investors chose Treasuries as the new safe haven How the 10 year Treasury yield hitting around 5.2% compares to gold, which pays no interest at all Why rising Treasury yields make the government's $40 trillion national debt more expensive to service How higher Treasury yields translate into higher mortgage, car loan, and credit card rates Why markets are pricing in a 75% chance of another rate hike in October and a possible second hike in December The three ways to build wealth: always be buying, taking advantage of market crashes through the "POOP" cycle, and investing in market shifts Why research based investing means acting before an opportunity shows up in the headlines Keywords: gold prices, Treasury yields, safe haven investment, national debt, Federal Reserve, interest rates, mortgage rates, Strait of Hormuz, oil prices, investing ✅ Register for my investing Workshop & get Market Briefs as a bonus: Please note: Yes, these are our sponsors & advertisers.

Americans are still spending — but they're changing where and how they spend.Consumer spending is up 4.5% from a year ago, but households are increasingly trading down to cheaper stores, lower-priced goods and more affordable housing. PhD economist Orphe Divounguy explains why that matters for the economy and for the Federal Reserve.More than half of new homes sold in August were priced below $400,000, compared with about 46% a year earlier. With mortgage rates rising above 7%, Divounguy expects builders to continue offering incentives, cutting prices and shifting toward smaller, less expensive homes.The bigger question is whether businesses can continue raising prices. With consumers becoming more price-sensitive and the labor market remaining weak, businesses are struggling to pass higher costs from tariffs and energy onto shoppers.Chris Krug and Orphe also break down what to watch in Wednesday's Personal Consumption Expenditures inflation report and why core PCE could remain around 3.3% year over year.Everyday Economics is hosted by Chris Krug and PhD economist Orphe Divounguy and is brought to you by The Center Square Newswire Service.

Mortgage rates have surged toward 7.5%, putting renewed pressure on housing affordability and buyer demand. Steven Thomas and Brennen Thomas examine rising price cuts, additional Federal Reserve rate hikes, and how elevated rates could affect the housing market through the end of 2026. The episode also explains why today's adjustable-rate mortgages are fundamentally different from the risky loan products that helped fuel the Great Recession.Got questions?

This Day in Legal History: The Integration of Ole MissOn September 30, 1962, James Meredith, a Black Air Force veteran, was escorted onto the campus of the University of Mississippi by federal marshals to enroll under a federal court order. The university had rejected him for no reason other than his race. The Fifth Circuit ordered him admitted, and Justice Hugo Black refused to let that order be delayed. Mississippi's governor, Ross Barnett, personally blocked Meredith's registration anyway. The federal appeals court held him in contempt.After nightfall on the 30th, a crowd of students, locals, and segregationists attacked the roughly 120 marshals guarding Meredith. That night President Kennedy went on national television to explain why the federal government would enforce the order, the address today's opening quote comes from. The riot killed two people, including a French journalist, and injured hundreds. It took thousands of federal troops to end it. The next morning, Meredith registered.Listeners may remember we covered Little Rock earlier this month. Ole Miss is the same principle five years later: a federal court order is binding, even on a state determined to resist it, and the federal government will enforce it. The Constitution's guarantees mean what courts say they mean, and a governor doesn't get to veto them. That idea of judicial orders as binding law, not suggestions, has come up again and again on this show this month.The Supreme Court has let the administration resume deporting migrants to so-called third countries: nations that aren't named in their removal orders and that many of them have no connection to. In a brief order, with the three liberal justices objecting, the Court paused a February ruling by a federal district judge. That ruling required immigration authorities to give people more due process before sending them to a third country, and a federal appeals court had largely upheld it earlier this month. The administration says it has used the policy to deport tens of thousands of people to Mexico and to countries in Africa and Latin America, often after their home countries refused to take them back. The legal issue is notice and an opportunity to be heard. The challengers argue that if the government plans to send someone to a country where they may face persecution or torture, due process and the Convention Against Torture require that the person be told where they're going and get a real chance to object first. The government's position is that it has broad authority over removals and that lower courts overstepped. The Court also agreed to hear the case in full in December, and it asked the parties to brief several questions: whether the lower courts had jurisdiction at all, whether they could order nationwide relief, and whether the policy violates due process or the torture convention. Those first two questions matter well beyond immigration, because they go to the reach of federal judges' power over executive policy. For now, the deportations resume while those questions are decided. As with the SAVE voter-verification order last week, the emergency docket has put the risk of error on the people affected while the case is pending.Supreme Court lets Trump resume third-country deportations | Reuters · NPR · CBS NewsFormer special counsel Jack Smith testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee at a hearing its Republican chairman, Chuck Grassley, titled an oversight hearing into Smith's “abuse of authority.” Smith brought the two federal criminal cases against Donald Trump: one over his efforts to overturn the 2020 election, and one over his handling of classified documents after his first term. Both cases were dismissed after Trump won the 2024 election. Grassley accused Smith of “rampant abuse of authority and political targeting” funded by taxpayers. Smith defended the investigations as based on evidence and Justice Department policy, not politics. He told senators he would not be silenced by “continued threats of prosecution,” and he condemned the firing and vilification of the agents and prosecutors who worked for him. Live coverage also reported him saying his investigation had shown, beyond a reasonable doubt, that Trump engaged in serious crimes. Here's the legal significance. A special counsel operates under Justice Department regulations designed to give some independence in politically sensitive investigations. When a former prosecutor faces open talk of prosecution for his own charging decisions, and his former staff are fired, the concern is less about Smith himself than about future prosecutors. Every prosecutor considering a case against a powerful person will now know that the charging decision itself can bring personal and professional consequences. Congress does have legitimate oversight power over the Justice Department. But oversight turning into retaliation is exactly what Justice Department independence norms are supposed to prevent. The hearing is another sign of how politicized federal prosecution has become.Former Trump prosecutor Jack Smith faces Senate hearing over abuse of authority accusations | Reuters · NBC News · CNNAnd finally, in my column for Bloomberg Tax this week, I take on one of the most common arguments against California's proposed wealth tax. Proposition 40 would impose a one-time 5% levy on the net worth of Californians who were billionaires at the start of this year. Opponents warn that a tax on the ultra-rich will eventually trickle down to ordinary households. My response is that ordinary households already pay a recurring tax on their largest store of wealth. It's called the property tax. Think about how it works: the government values an asset you own, applies a rate to that value, and bills you every year simply for continuing to own it. That's a tax on a stock of wealth, not on income. I ran some back-of-the-envelope numbers using Tax Foundation and Federal Reserve data. The national effective property tax rate on owner-occupied homes was about 0.91% in 2022. The median primary residence was worth about $323,000, and median housing equity was about $200,000. That works out to a property tax bill of roughly $2,900 a year, or close to 1.5% of the typical homeowner's actual equity, every year. And unlike Proposition 40, the property tax doesn't subtract your mortgage. It's charged on the full assessed value, so with a big mortgage, a nominal 1% rate can equal 5% or more of your real equity. The billionaire's wealth tax would be calculated on assets minus debts, which is more lenient on that point. My conclusion is that many homeowners would gladly trade their recurring 1.5% for a one-time 5%. So the real question isn't whether taxing wealth is acceptable in principle. It's why our appetite for it changes so much depending on what kind of wealth it is and who owns it. I'm not saying Proposition 40 is well designed. Valuing private company shares is much harder than valuing a house, and billionaires can move in a way houses can't. If the objection is really to the size and one-time structure, the better debate is whether a recurring, lower-rate tax, say 1% a year above a very high threshold, would be workable. That would look much more like the property tax system homeowners already live with, and over ten years it would raise roughly double the revenue.California Wealth Tax Trickle-Down Concerns Are Unconvincing | Bloomberg Tax This is a public episode.

Mortgage rates today: inflation came in cooler than expected, and that's good news for homebuyers and homeowners watching the bond market. PCE, the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge, held at 3.4% when the market expected 3.7%. In this update I break down what that means for mortgage rates and what's most likely to happen over the next few weeks.

MGLU +12% e EMBJ -3%Olá, sejam bem-vindo a mais um Fechamento de Mercado da Inside, novo nome da Levante, comigo Flávio Conde e Marcelo dos FIIs , hoje é 4a. feira, 30 de setembro, e o mês de setembro terminou superpositivo em 5,03%, o melhor desde janeiro, quando o principal índice da Bolsa brasileira subiu 12,5%. O 3T26 ficou 8,32% no azul.O dia foi positivo com Ibovespa mais 1,37%, aos 186.340 pontos, sendo que na máxima do dia, chegou a 187.834 pontos, com volume bom de R$ 33 bi, R$ 6 bi acima da média de R$ 27 bi das quartas do segundo semestre. E quais foram as notícias positivas do dia?1. O índice de preços de consumo pessoal, mais conhecido como PCE, o principal indicador de inflação para o Federal Reserve orientar sua política monetária, veio bem abaixo do esperado. Uma alegria. Um alívio para quem esperava uma paulada dos dados e acabou recebendo a esperança de que o Fed não precise mais aumentar juros este ano.A ferramenta FedWatch do CME Group mostrou que os investidores estão precificando uma probabilidade de 62,9% de manutenção da taxa na atual faixa entre 3,75% e 4% ao ano, ante uma chance de 49,1% captada na terça-feira.Mas há ponderações: “a porcentagem dos componentes de preços do PCE que estão subindo a uma taxa superior a 3% ao ano diminuiu um pouco, passando de 54% para 51%, embora esse nível ainda seja muito superior ao normal, o que oferece poucos motivos para acreditar que a tendência subjacente da inflação tenha melhorado significativamente”, segundo economista americano. Isso pode reforçaea visão (do Fed) de que é necessário um aperto monetário adicional para conter a inflação e levá-la de volta à meta.2. As bolsas americanas abriram em alta pós-PCE, mas Dow Jones virou para queda de -0,86% depois do petróleo subir à tarde 1,1% e juros americanos longos virarem para cima. O Nasdaq se salvou, +0,24%, porque ações as big techs subiram junto com ações de semicondutores ainda refletindo o acordo não formal entre presidente Trump e CEOs das big techs de que irão fazer um regulação própria e informal sobre a IA;3. Pesquisas de intenção de votos para presidente com Flávio subindo no 1T e 2T mesmo depois do imbróglio da padroeira do Brasil, Nossa Senhora de Aparecida;4. O real se beneficiou do momento positivo e subiu frente ao dólar comercial, que desceu 0,81%, a R$ 5,172.5. Juros fecharam misto com o Tesouro Prefixado com Juros Semestrais 2037 em 14,10% a.a. versus 14,07% ontem e Tesouro IPCA+ com Juros Semestrais 2037 em IPCA+ 7,46% a.a versus 7,50% ontem.Assista o vídeo e veja as recomendações de ações do Conde e de FIIs do Marcelo
Welcome back to the VRA Investing Podcast with your host, Kip Herriage. In today's episode, Kip Herriage returns after a brief trip to Colorado Springs, where he attended a private gathering focused on Lost Soldier Oil and Gas and Stallion Ridge—projects he believes could be game-changers in the oil and gas sector. He shares insights into why these ventures stand out, especially because the employees and their families are investing their own money, a rarity in the industry. On the investing front, Kip Herriage breaks down September's surprisingly mixed performance in the markets, explains why seasonality might favor investors as we head into October, and discusses the implications of rising interest rates—even drawing fascinating historical parallels to previous U.S. bull markets. He delves into the psychology of fear and sentiment among investors, critiques mainstream media narratives, and explores how geopolitical events and Federal Reserve policy may be shaping economic outcomes heading into the midterms.

The guest host for today's show is Brad Bannon. Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns. His show, 'Deadline D.C. with Brad Bannon,' airs every Monday from 3-4pm ET. First, Brad speaks with world renowned Economist Dr. Robert Shapiro about the economic pressures facing American families, including rising gas, food, electricity and health-care costs, and why Rob believes many of those increases are tied to Trump administration policies on tariffs, health care and the war in Iran. They also discuss the Federal Reserve's decision to raise interest rates, what higher borrowing costs mean for mortgages, credit cards and car loans, and why Rob is worried about slower growth as wages fail to keep pace with inflation. The conversation also turns to the political consequences of the economy heading into the midterms and what Democrats should prioritize if they regain control of Congress. Dr. Shapiro argues that Democrats should roll back tariffs, restore Affordable Care Act subsidies and press for an end to the war in Iran as ways to reduce price pressures and show voters they are focused on improving household finances. Then, John Kenneth White joins Brad to discuss his new book, "Democracy on the Edge: The Trump Elections and the Future of American Politics." John argues that America's democratic crisis did not begin with Donald Trump, but has been made more severe by decades of growing presidential power, congressional weakness and structural problems in the Constitution. Brad and John discuss the Electoral College, the Senate, Supreme Court reform, Congress's diminished role in war powers and the broader question of whether the country's political institutions are still working as intended. The conversation also explores the country's changing racial and generational makeup, the political backlash that followed Barack Obama's election, the long-running stalemate between the two parties, and the economic divide between wealthy Americans and everyone else. John argues that younger voters are less attached to either party because they have not seen enough results, and he closes on a more hopeful note about the responsibility of ordinary citizens to protect democratic institutions and take ownership of the country's future. Brad is on the National Journal's panel of political insiders, is an American political analyst for The Times of India TV, and is a national political analyst for WGN TV and Radio in Chicago and KNX Radio in Los Angeles.

In this episode of the Financial Survival Network, host Kerry Lutz welcomes back financial analyst and macro strategist Jim Welsh of MacroTides.com to break down the underlying vulnerabilities in today's financial markets. Rather than predicting an immediate market crash, Jim highlights a growing internal weakness, pointing out how an equal-weighted S&P 500 and broader market internals show more stocks hitting new lows than highs. The discussion delves into surging Treasury yields, the probability of a "one-and-done" Federal Reserve rate hike driven by economic factors and newly signaled Fed policy, and why market-driven rate increases are already doing the heavy lifting for the central bank. The conversation shifts to sector trends, specifically examining whether the booming artificial intelligence sector is headed for a dot-com style correction. Jim outlines his technical outlook for the semiconductor index (SMH), forecasting near-term pullbacks followed by a potential buying opportunity before a larger macro unwind occurs later in the cycle. Kerry and Jim wrap up with a look at historical market patterns, economic cycles, and a brief look at inflation metrics via the Dollar Time Machine, highlighting how rising national debt impacts long-term economic stability.

John Kosar, chief market strategist at Asbury Research, says this is "one of the oddest markets" he's seen, with stocks nearly at record highs, two-decade highs in the yield of long-term Treasury bonds, a war, tariffs, oil priced at over $100 per barrel, and yet less stocks are making fresh highs and the Magnificent Seven stocks are carrying the load for the entire market. If the "big gorilla stocks" falter — which Kosar says is likely at some point — the market could topple like a Jenga tower. Kosar isn't out of stocks yet, but he's watching volatility and more, prepping to play defense soon. Josh Wein, portfolio manager at the Hennessy Funds, says that oil prices -- rather than Federal Reserve rate hikes — are "the big wildcard for the market" right now, noting that he expects the market to easily absorb the first two increases, and maybe more. One reason for that, Wein says, is that it's now earnings — rather than the Fed -- that are driving the market and investor sentiment. Wein, who manages 10 funds at Hennessy, says he expects a small rally as third-quarter earnings come out, getting better into the end of the year. Jeff Muhlenkamp, portfolio manager for the Muhlenkamp Fund, explains in the Market Call why his fund is holding a larger allocation to gold and gold miners than ever before in its long history, discusses valuation concerns around earnings and talks about why the "hold" decision is as important as the buys and sells.
William Blair macro analyst Richard de Chazal explains why investors may need to adjust to a world of structurally higher inflation, interest rates, and bond yields rather than expect a return to the economic conditions that defined the 2000-2020 period. He also examines how AI-driven productivity gains, capital investment trends, and Federal Reserve policy could shape markets and economic growth in the years ahead.

Dr. Shapiro argues that Democrats should roll back tariffs, restore Affordable Care Act subsidies and press for an end to the war in Iran as ways to reduce price pressures and show voters they are focused on improving household finances. Then, John Kenneth White joins Brad to discuss his new book, "Democracy on the Edge: The Trump Elections and the Future of American Politics." John argues that America's democratic crisis did not begin with Donald Trump, but has been made more severe by decades of growing presidential power, congressional weakness and structural problems in the Constitution. Brad and John discuss the Electoral College, the Senate, Supreme Court reform, Congress's diminished role in war powers and the broader question of whether the country's political institutions are still working as intended. The conversation also explores the country's changing racial and generational makeup, the political backlash that followed Barack Obama's election, the long-running stalemate between the two parties, and the economic divide between wealthy Americans and everyone else. John argues that younger voters are less attached to either party because they have not seen enough results, and he closes on a more hopeful note about the responsibility of ordinary citizens to protect democratic institutions and take ownership of the country's future. Brad is on the National Journal's panel of political insiders, is an American political analyst for The Times of India TV, and is a national political analyst for WGN TV and Radio in Chicago and KNX Radio in Los Angeles. Brad also writes a political column every Sunday for 'The Hill.' You can read his new Substack called, 'The Bannon Ballot Blast,' at www.bradbannon.substack.com.

In this explosive episode of On The Record with Christian Briggs, Christian tears down the curtain on the silent monetary coup being orchestrated by unelected central bank technocrats and globalist institutions. Strip away the corporate doublespeak and mainstream media distractions: Central Bank Digital Currencies are not an innocent payment modernization, but the infrastructure for absolute, turnkey financial surveillance and control.Christian takes listeners back to the origin point in 2020. While the American public was paralyzed by pandemic lockdowns, emergency decrees, and multi-trillion-dollar spending binges, the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and MIT launched Project Hamilton. Operating behind academic jargon, elite software engineers weren't running theoretical debates; they compiled operational code under the OpenCBDC framework. By stress-testing a parallel Two-Phase Commit architecture, they proved a transaction throughput of 1.84 million operations per second—thirty times the peak capacity of the entire global Visa network. The supercharged engine was built, waiting only for political authorization to be deployed.The episode pulls back the curtain on how crises are engineered to justify consolidation. Christian reveals how the March 2023 regional banking panic—where Silicon Valley Bank lost $42 billion in hours via smartphone apps—served as a live dry run to argue that private commercial deposits are obsolete and must be absorbed directly onto the Federal Reserve's balance sheet.While conservative champions like Senator Bill Hagerty fought back in Congress, and President Trump's executive order halted retail CBDC initiatives domestically, Christian issues a critical warning: an executive order is only temporary. Overseas, the European Central Bank is sprinting ahead, recruiting thirty-six banking conglomerates and thousands of merchants for a 2027 live pilot targeting a 2029 rollout. Simultaneously, the Bank for International Settlements is coordinating Project mBridge with China and Gulf nations, assembling alternate digital rails to bypass SWIFT and dethrone the US Dollar.Finally, Christian exposes the true macro driver behind this push: an escalating $36 trillion national debt death spiral, collapsing Treasury auctions, and the inevitability of Yield Curve Control. Just as FDR seized private gold via Executive Order 6102 in 1933, a CBDC regime provides the digital cage needed for forced wealth confiscation and financial repression. Christian outlines immediate, tangible defense strategies—demanding binding congressional bans and establishing allocations to physical gold and silver outside vulnerable banking counterparties before the trap snaps shut.
This week, we're bringing you an episode of WSJ's Take On the Week. Host Miriam Gottfried is joined by guest co-host and WSJ markets reporter Sam Goldfarb to break down the unprecedented surge in the 10-year Treasury yield. Meghan Swiber, U.S. rates strategist at Bank of America, joins the show to discuss what influences these yields, and how a 5% yield affects everyday borrowing costs including mortgage rates, which are again topping 7%. Swiber unpacks the Treasury Department's surprising buybacks, and how this strategy compares to the actions the Federal Reserve took to mitigate the effects of the last financial crisis. Plus, how is the market reacting to the Fed, which is trying to battle inflation by hiking rates? Have an idea for a future guest or episode? How can we better help you take on the week?
