From the BBC World Service: France's push to get a grip on its debt problem is expected to result in the ousting of another prime minister, François Bayrou. President Emmanuel Macron must convince European allies and financial markets that he'll get a debt-reducing budget approved by the end of the year. Plus, as gold continues to hit record highs, London's bullion market is preparing to go digital. And the succession battle at Rupert Murdoch's media empire has ended with his eldest son, Lachlan, securing control.

Gold keeps soaring and not because of inflation. We know this without any doubt because as copper prices remain stuck, rising bullion against it has crashed the copper-to-gold ratio down to RECORD LOWS. That isn't about expectations for a crash, instead the market is expressing rising probabilities as to the future.

This week, the Trump administration announced it would sell around 5% of mortgage giants and government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The sale would begin to reintroduce the two firms to private markets after 17 years of government conservatorship. The decision to re-privatize two of the largest mortgage firms in the world, and a prominent reason why the United States is one of the only countries where people can get 30-year fixed-rate mortgages, will have enormous implications for the U.S. economy, housing market, and the American dream.Fannie Mae was founded during the Great Depression with the idea of making mortgages more widely available to Americans by buying mortgage loans from banks. Freddie Mac came along in 1970 to provide competition and increase liquidity for mortgages. In part, Fannie and Freddie increased liquidity by repackaging their mortgages into mortgage-backed securities and reselling them to investors. In the early 2000s, the subprime mortgage crisis began as smaller, unregulated financial actors started offering risky mortgage loans and likewise repackaged them to investors. When the crisis imploded in 2008, it gutted the market for mortgage-backed securities, and the U.S. government seized Fannie and Freddie to prevent them from collapsing. The government feared that without Freddie and Fannie, many Americans would no longer be able to afford home ownership. Today, Fannie and Freddie still back roughly 50% of all mortgage loans, with other government agencies making up another chunk.The Trump administration's plans to take these GSEs public again will allow the two firms to raise billions through new stock offerings and shift risk back to the private sector. But the question is, why is the government doing this? Will it help fix the country's housing crisis—which Trump has reportedly called a national emergency—or will it make matters worse? Bethany and Luigi get together to discuss what it would mean for Fannie and Freddie to go public, who benefits from these developments, and their implications for home loans, the housing market, and the American economy.Also check out Bethany's book, published in 2015: Shaky Ground: The Strange Saga of the U.S. Mortgage Giants

Send us a textIn this episode of The Wall Street Skinny, Jen unpacks an overlooked risk brewing beneath the surface of financial markets. Why did Jerome Powell, head of the Fed, deliver such a surprisingly “dovish” speech at Jackson Hole? Jen suggests it may be because he sees this liquidity problem coming. Looking ahead, Kristen and Jen walk listeners through what to watch: not just whether the Fed cuts rates in September (they signaled pretty strongly that is coming) but also whether regulators adjust rules to make it easier for banks to hold Treasuries. Both moves could help ease the pressure. By breaking down complex concepts like “quantitative tightening” and “repo markets” into plain language, this episode shows how plumbing deep in the financial system can ripple out into markets and the economy, and why these behind-the-scenes moves matter for everyone.For a 14 day FREE Trial of Macabacus, click HERE For 20% off Deleteme, use the code TWSS or click the link HERE!

For decades, private equity has been the darling of pension funds, university endowments, and sovereign wealth funds, promising high returns and low volatility. Now, President Donald Trump has made it possible for everyday investors to get in on the magic with his executive order, "Democratizing Access to Alternative Assets for 401(k) Investors.” The order relieves regulatory burdens that limit the access of defined contribution plans, like 401(k)s, to alternative assets such as private equity (but also cryptocurrency and real estate). The hope is to give American workers access to greater choice, diversification, and potential growth towards a comfortable retirement.But Trump's order comes just as longstanding questions about private equity's promise of high returns and low risk are coming to the fore. Has the distribution of returns slowed to a trickle? What does data actually say about private equity's performance, and where is the industry headed? There is also a long standing debate whether private equity is good for society, independent of financial returns.Is private equity actually a ponzi scheme that now threatens the retirements of millions of American workers? To make sense of it all, Luigi and Bethany are joined by Dan Rasmussen, an experienced investor and author who began his career in private equity but has emerged as one of the most prescient critics of the industry. Together, the three of them distill what the state of the industry means for the future welfare of investors, workers, and the American economy as a whole.Bonus: Check out ProMarket's recent series on the impact of private equity in the health care industry.

Are we on the brink of another financial crisis in Canada's housing market? Between rising interest rates, record household debt, and condo oversupply in cities like Montreal and Toronto, investors are asking the same question: how do you survive the storm? In this episode, I break down lessons from the 2008 financial crisis—and how they apply to today's Canadian real estate market. You'll learn how to spot early warning signs, build a personal “danger dashboard,” and make smarter decisions without panic. Whether you own a triplex in Montreal or are considering your first rental property, these strategies will help you navigate uncertainty with clarity and confidence.

On today's Capital Record, David looks at the issue of housing affordability and walks through Rahm Emanuel's new op-ed in the Washington Post whereby a confused explanation of the financial crisis is given, and even more confused solutions are offered to a problem Rahm mostly identifies correctly. Few subjects in the American economy touch more people than housing, and if housing has become unaffordable for too many, the one thing we really cannot afford is to get this subject wrong.Show notes:What's Really Depressing America's Young Men

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has issued a stark warning: the city has reached a “point of no return” financially. With a looming $1.1 billion budget shortfall and growing pressure on public services like education, healthcare, and transportation, Johnson says urgent and creative solutions are needed.

So this is a very appropriate question; whatever season of life or life experience we find ourselves in; where do we turn when we hit a financial crisis?

Southern Oregon University is currently facing a financial emergency. The current budget for the institution is roughly $71 million, but cuts need to be made to drop that number to $60 million. President Rick Bailey points to a number of factors contributing to the crisis, including the lack of state support and actions from the Trump administration. Bailey’s new proposal to cut costs includes declaring a financial exigency that could impact more than 60 employees and possibly result in cutting 15 academic majors. Bailey joins us to share more on the financial state of the institution.

Two major markets, two VERY different conclusions and outlooks. The diverging views and prices revolve around what really happened in April. Was it a one-off overreaction to tariffs? Or was the deflation confirmation of more than just potential volatility? Both markets are doubling and tripling down on their separate views, each reaching record or near-record levels for them. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis******If you are in any way interested in precious metals,  you need to see what today's video sponsor, Monetary Metals, is doing with them at the link below: http://www.monetary-metals.com/Snider/************Eurodollar University's Anniversary Salehttps://www.eurodollar.university/sale************Eurodollar University July 10 Webinar Replayhttps://event.webinarjam.com/go/replay/29/3y5kpclzi20tz1t5******https://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

This reading followed the 0.9% decrease reported in May and came in better than the market expectation for an increase of 0.1%. On a yearly basis, Retail Sales were up 3.9% in June, compared to 3.3% in May.

This is essentially a repeat of the 2017/2018 economic outcome from President Trump's first term in office.  The tariffs, which are applied to the ‘cost' side of the dynamic, are mostly being absorbed by major producing nations who are reliant upon export to the U.S. market.  Simultaneously, the tariffs are generating income – essentially exfiltrating foreign wealth and returning those funds to the USA; a complete reversal of the rust-belt dynamic. https://twitter.com/KobeissiLetter/status/1945955921030684832   over 40% of which generated at least $1 billion in revenue in China last year.

Navigating Risk, Noise, and Uncertainty: Barry Ritholtz on Investing in a Volatile World   In my conversation with Barry Ritholtz, chairman of Ritholtz Wealth Management and host of Bloomberg's “Masters in Business” podcast, we explored market and real estate cycles, caution, and capital allocation in today's increasingly unpredictable economic environment. Below are the most actionable and provocative takeaways for real estate investors, both passive and professional, drawn from Barry's decades of lessons and market observations.   Origins of Insight: From Blog to Bloomberg Ritholtz didn't set out to run a multi-billion-dollar firm. What started as daily trading notes eventually evolved into a blog, a book, Bailout Nation, and a platform that positioned him to correctly call both the top and bottom of the 2008 financial crisis. This journey, grounded in curiosity and behavioral finance, shaped the contrarian and data-driven approach he still employs today.   "I just wanted to know why some people made money while others didn't doing the same thing."   The 2008 Playbook: Behavioral Edge Over Economic Models Ritholtz attributes his early warning of the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) to non-traditional thinking and real estate roots (his mother was a real estate agent). Observing abnormal refinancing activity and "cash-out mania" led him to investigate securitized debt and derivative risk, well before it was mainstream.   He reverse-engineered risk from Reinhart & Rogoff's crisis research and famously predicted the Dow's decline to ~6,800—earning mockery initially, then vindication.   Echoes of 2008? Why This Time Feels Precarious While he stops short of predicting a crisis, Ritholtz allows for a 10–15% probability of a self-inflicted depression – a worst-case scenario rooted not in structural weakness, but political mismanagement.   “It [is an] asymmetrical risk to take one bullet, put it in a six shooter, spin the wheel, and put it up against your head with a $28 trillion economy.”   From tariffs to immigration policy to fiscal gamesmanship, Ritholtz sees signs that the U.S. may be eroding the long-standing trust that underpins reserve currency status and global capital flows.   Cash Isn't a Plan, Discipline Is When asked whether it makes sense to sit in cash and wait out the next downturn, Ritholtz counters with behavioral caution. Historically, those who “go to cash” rarely reenter at the right time and often miss the rebound entirely.   “If you're going to sit out in cash, do you have the temperament, the discipline to get back in?” Instead, he recommends building resilience: modest leverage, long-term focus, and capital efficiency – hallmarks of legends like Sam Zell, who Ritholtz holds up as a model of disciplined real estate investing.   A Word on Leverage: Use with Extreme Care High leverage is the common thread in stories of ruin. Ritholtz referenced the downfall of the Peloton CEO, who borrowed heavily against inflated stock. The same caution applies to over-leveraged real estate investors, especially those who haven't endured a full cycle.   “Market crashes are where capital returns to its rightful owners.”   For CRE sponsors, now is the time to refinance where possible, preserve cash, and maintain flexibility, even if that means lower IRR projections.   How to Filter the Noise: Create an Information Diet Ritholtz emphasized the need to tune out “financial candy from strangers” – the firehose of social media, Substacks, and hot takes by unvetted commentators.   “They don't know your zip code, your goals, your tax bracket. Why would you trust them?” He recommends identifying a shortlist of credible voices with defined, rational processes and a record of sound judgment. “Build your A-Team,” he advises. “Then ignore the rest.”   Real Estate Today: Not Monolithic, but Multifaceted Unlike equities, real estate behaves very differently depending on location, asset class, and capital structure. While some sectors (e.g., Class B office) remain distressed, others (e.g., data centers, multifamily in select markets, industrial) are faring relatively well.   “Literally, there are properties [Zell] held for half a century. He was long term… used modest amounts of leverage, and he bought great properties at even better prices.”   Ritholtz warns against painting real estate with a broad brush and urges nuanced thinking about cycles, risk-adjusted return, and operator quality.   Sentiment vs. Signals: What to Watch Now While he downplays the predictive power of investor sentiment, Ritholtz monitors: Three-month moving averages of non-farm payrolls Rounded tops in S&P earnings trends Residential real estate supply conditions in key metros Dollar strength (as a proxy for confidence and capital flows) “If the dollar keeps falling and supply starts rising in housing markets, it's time to pay attention.”   Dollar, Debt, and the Doomsayers Ritholtz is blunt about the debt debate. He finds most public discourse alarmist and often wrong. With the U.S. still enjoying reserve currency privileges, he sees no imminent collapse but warns against complacency.   “We've been hearing the deficit will destroy America for 50 years. It hasn't. But bad policy could.”   He is more concerned with underinvestment in infrastructure and human capital than with rising debt levels per se.   Closing Counsel for Investors For those sitting on fresh capital, say $1 million, Ritholtz advises: Clarify your goals (retirement, education, housing). Max out tax-advantaged accounts. Build a core of low-cost index exposure. Don't chase alpha before securing beta. Avoid overcomplexity: “Two dozen funds is not a portfolio.” His parting message? Discipline beats prediction. And humility is a superpower.   Final Thought “Everyone is faking it to some degree. The real danger isn't what you don't know – it's not knowing what you don't know.”   In an age of volatility and noise, Ritholtz's framework stands out: stay informed, stay skeptical, and invest like risk is real – because it is.   *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.
