The headlines on the Wall Street Journal have been marvelling at the lack of inflationary pressure as a result of tariffs. The latest CPI announcement had the annualized rate at 2.7% against the backdrop of a weakening labor market. This is converging on the Fed's 2% target for inflation. We are looking at inflation because the Fed's interest rate policy is linked to balancing both price stability and maximizing employment. If inflation is too high, they raise rates in order to suppress demand. If unemployment is too high they lower rates to stimulate investment. Of course we know it is not just the rates which affect the economy, it's access to credit which is infinitely more important. We know that tariffs have been making headlines for most of this year. Tariffs have been in effect on a wide range of goods for many countries since April 1. There have been several delays to the implementation of tariffs which were designed to incentivize new trade deals with the US. Some of these have concluded and others like Canada and China are still in process. Last Friday the Producer Price Index was published and it showed that prices increase 0.9% for the month of July. That's a huge jump in a month. Is this all the result of tariffs? No. The services component of the PPI rose 1.1% and the goods component rose 0.7%. Tariffs are not the whole story. When I consider that companies need to maintain profitability, there are several ways they can do this. For example, retailers might hold the line on prices for goods that have tariffs attached to them. But I think the cost pressure from tariffs and the incentive to bring manufacturing to the US will have two effects.Any new manufacturing in the US will take time to implement. In the meantime, companies will have to find other ways to cut costs. If and when they do eventually bring new manufacturing to the US, it will be very highly automated to minimize the impact of higher wages in the US. With the advent of AI, manufacturers will be looking for ways to eliminate other positions in the company and reduce headcount to improve operating margins. The drive to save costs will accelerate the adoption of AI in companies and speed up the elimination of jobs. Strangely, this will have the opposite effect that the White House is hoping for. So if inflation ticks up as a result of tariffs, can the Fed do anything about it? The answer is a resounding NO. Raising interest rates won't make the tariffs go away. Increasing costs for businesses won't cause demand to fall enough to suppress prices. So the Fed would be rendered completely impotent to bring price stability from an artificial imposition of tariffs causing prices to increase. You see these economic models assume normal economic behaviour. But if the model doesn't explain the real situation on the ground, then at a certain point you have to abandon the computer simulation and look out the window to see what's happening.--------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

The State Health Plan Board of Trustees voted today to increase premiums for most state employees and retirees for the first time in eight years.  The increases will take effect on Jan. 1, 2026. The plan consists of a tiered structure for the increases, with higher-paid employees paying more monthly than lower-paid employees. For some, the increase will be as low as $15 per month, while those making over $90,000 could see their premiums triple.  This week's episode of The SEANC View Podcast, recorded before the meeting, focuses on the State Health Plan increases. We also discuss the state budget, Gen Z employees, and more.

Troy Swift started farming at age 42, and has achieved incredible results using regenerative practices in his Texas pecan grove: increasing yields in certain varieties by up to 6X, while cutting nitrogen inputs by 97%, reducing insecticides, and eliminating herbicides.  Troy is a first-generation farmer from Central Texas who transitioned to pecan farming after a career in the composite jet engine industry. With a data-driven mindset from his manufacturing background, he now manages 126 acres of hybrid and native pecans along the San Marcos River and serves as president of the Texas Pecan Growers Association. Troy's 27 years of growing experience shape his innovative approach to regenerative agriculture.

Volatility is picking up in the stock market, but the Nasdaq still signals further upside within a steady rising trend. The end of the week could be pivotal for what comes next.Before that, we'll get the inflation prints: CPI on Tuesday and PPI on Thursday. Consensus looks for July CPI at +0.2% MoM and ~2.8% YoY.Many economists have argued since February for higher inflation. Jim disagrees—he argues lower energy prices will keep inflation in check, offsetting tariff pressures by reducing production and transport costs.Thanks to a strong rally in NIO since the last podcast, the $1,000 Challenge is now heading toward $4,000.All this and more in this week's episode of Trading Tips With Jim.Topics: Nasdaq, CPI, PPI, inflation, energy prices, tariffs, NIO, stock market outlook, trading strategies.

This week, we are joined by a lactation expert to talk about all things breastfeeding. Naiomi Catron is an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), former labor & delivery nurse, and author of Milk'D: Finding Your Flow In The First Weeks of Breastfeeding. We kick things off with the most common breastfeeding mistake Naomi sees new moms make (and how to fix it), plus how to maximize your milk production in those first days after birth (spoiler alert: it involves a plastic spoon!?).  Naiomi tells us the difference between breast milk and formula (and the point that “breast is best” totally MISSES). She also answer whether or not “just one drop” of breast milk is beneficial for a newborn.  From pacifiers to the best ways to increase milk supply to when you can finally drop that middle-of-the-night pumping session — Naomi has the answers. Plus, a personal favorite - she shares the role dads can play in making the whole breastfeeding process easier. Whether you're pregnant, in the thick of it, or just curious about the science and strategy behind feeding a newborn, this episode is full of the kind of no-BS, expert-informed advice every parent needs to hear.

1 in 4 children in the U.S. lives with a chronic health condition (e.g., asthma, obesity, diabetes, ADHD, etc.). Asthma: Affects ~6 million children (~8.4% of U.S. kids). Obesity (ages 2–19): ~21% are classified as obese — one of the highest rates in the developed world. Type 2 diabetes in children: Increasing rapidly, especially in adolescents. Most common among children of color. The U.S. consistently ranks near the bottom among high-income countries for Infant Mortality Rate. And yet, the U.S. spends more per child on health care than any other country, yet outcomes often lag behind. So does that sound like real "health" care to you? We have worse outcomes on infant mortality, obesity, and mental health and higher rates of hospitalization for preventable conditions and yet we pay MORE for those results? You know the old adage, you keep doing what you've always done and you'll keep getting what you always get. So is it time for a change? We sure think so. The BrainStim gang is discussing what real health for our children looks like - and what changes you can make to help the next generation be truly healthy. www.invisionchiropractic.com

Jake Ewing farms 1,300 acres of corn in Western Illinois, a relatively small operation compared to neighboring farms. Jake's farm has been shaped by the need to compete in a region dominated by large-scale commodity crop production, forcing him to rethink traditional approaches to corn farming, and developing a focus on innovative, cost-effective practices.  Jake's journey toward regenerative agriculture began with the purchase of a high-clearance sprayer, initially intended for conventional applications. This led to experiments with foliar fertilizers and reductions in herbicides and fungicides. His focus on soil health and plant nutrition has boosted yields to 275-285 bushels per acre, surpassing county averages while lowering costs. In this episode, John and Jake discuss: Reducing nitrogen applications to 160 pounds per acre, with only 100 pounds soil-applied, using foliar urea for efficiency. Foliar applications of manganese, copper, and cobalt to improve plant health and delay senescence, increasing yields. How foliar sprays in the evening with larger droplets enhance nutrient absorption by keeping solutions liquid longer. Eliminating insecticides and cutting fungicide use to a half-rate single pass, aiming for total elimination. How adequate manganese, copper, and zinc levels in sap tests reduce disease pressure, minimizing fungicide needs. About John Kempf John Kempf is the founder of Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA).

Daily Study: By your faith you receive the desires of your heart and are successful in the calling God has given you. Therefore, your faith is the most precious possession you have, so you must be careful not to lose it. The most common way Christians lose their faith is by not growing daily in faith, because if you aren't increasing in faith, you are decreasing in faith.

We all want to feel tight and lean, right? If you have ever wondered what it really takes to get lean and stay that way, this episode is for you. I walk you through 5 habits that will help you shift the way you see your body and body fat. You will learn what to focus on instead of fat loss, the kind of nutrition that supports a lean body, the most important upgrade in your workouts, and my favorite anchor meal.I share the story of my friend who has incredible DEXA scans, great body composition, and crushes it at the gym. She looks like the picture of health, but even she found it tough to lose a bit more fat. It is not just about effort. It is about mindset. We have been taught to see body fat as a problem, and that can mess with how we approach fitness. At the end of the day, we are all chasing a feeling. That feeling is usually feeling good. And let me tell you, it feels amazing to feel good in your own body.Here's the thing: focusing on fat loss alone doesn't work. When you only focus on losing weight, you often end up using strategies that break down your muscles. That is not what we want. Instead, shift your focus to performance. Start to think like an athlete. You will see that as your muscle grows, fat comes off more easily. Get into the habit of tracking your workouts and increasing the intensity. When your fitness goes up, fat tends to come off naturally.Next up is the habit of worrying about what other people think. This is a big one. It is totally normal to care, but other people's opinions should not control your choices. You might feel like you are being too rigid or making things awkward when it comes to food, but that is just your old programming talking. Your choices are your own. They are not hurting anyone, and they are not anyone else's business. You do not need to explain yourself or argue. Just let the comments roll off your back. That is what freedom feels like.Now let's get into food. Did you know it's really easy to eat more calories than your body needs, and that exercise does not burn nearly as many calories as people think? Fitness trackers often exaggerate calories burned, so take those with a grain of salt. Remember, your workouts are not meant to cancel out last night's dinner. They are meant to improve your body so you naturally burn more throughout the day.Start paying attention to your food, especially your protein. Track what you eat once in a while to get clear on your numbers. This is not about restriction or guilt. It is about awareness. Try different protein sources and remember that what works for someone else might not feel great for you.Which brings me to breakfast. A balanced breakfast sets the tone for the day. Each morning try to get a mix of about half your calories from carbs, a quarter from protein, and a quarter from fat. Yes, carbs belong at breakfast. All three macros matter and your body needs them to function well.And finally, the most important training habit is progression. If you want to change your body, you need to increase the weight you lift. For women over forty, this is especially important. Increasing your strength month by month builds the kind of muscle that sticks around and gives your metabolism a serious lift.If all of this feels confusing, it's probably because you are getting too many mixed messages from the internet. The truth is actually simple. Build muscle with strength training, and get your nutrition right. That is the recipe for getting and staying lean.And if you are still feeling lost, go back and listen to earlier episodes! You already have what it takes to become everything you want to be.I hope you enjoyed this episode! You can get FREE access to my 4-week Strength Without Stress program right now! This program will help you reduce the systemic inflammation that's caused by overly intense or lengthy workouts. It'll help you build...

In this episode of the Tough Girl Podcast, we're joined by Dr. Sarah Ruggins—a high-achieving investment professional, academic powerhouse, and now a record-breaking ultra-endurance cyclist. From her early days as a national-level track athlete in Canada to surviving complex PTSD and rebuilding her life, Sarah's journey is one of transformation, resilience, and radical self-belief. In 2023, Sarah competed in the Transcontinental Bike Race, and in 2025, she took on her most audacious challenge yet: cycling from John O'Groats to Land's End and back again—2,715 km in just 5 days, 11 hours, and 14 minutes, setting a new outright record. This conversation dives deep into the planning, training, and mindset behind the ride—from strength work and 3:30 AM mornings to battling hallucinations, sleep deprivation, and pain barriers. Sarah shares her three-part mantra—Focus, Discipline, Gratitude—and unpacks how elite performance is built in the margins: with structure, strategy, and sacrifice. Whether you're chasing a personal goal or looking for motivation to push your own limits, this is an episode that will fuel your fire.  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

Increasing attention is being placed on workers' mental health, as well as their physical health, but how do safety managers approach this challenge? Sean Egan, the Deputy Director of Labor for the State of Michigan, joins the OH&S Safety Pod to discuss Michigan's groundbreaking workplace mental health initiative. Launched through the Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity (LEO), the program aims to help businesses reduce stress, burnout, and stigma in high-risk, high-pressure industries like construction. Drawing from both policy expertise and lived experience, Egan explains how the initiative blends neuroscience, trauma-informed training, and innovative resources, such as the Man Therapy campaign, to support workers' behavioral health. More than awareness, Michigan's program calls for systemic changes, including revisiting work design, hazard assessments, and access to care to make mental health a core part of safety culture.  This episode offers safety professionals a timely and practical roadmap for embedding mental well-being into their overall risk strategy, as well as redefining what it means to truly protect workers.

Climate disruptions and growing risk are upending insurance markets, leading many insurers to abandon parts of the country all together. Due to fires, floods and other extreme events, more and more homeowners are facing rapidly rising premiums or being dropped from their insurance plans altogether. Increasing numbers of homeowners are taking refuge in the state insurance plans of last resort, straining the program resources. For homeowners, whose house is often their biggest financial asset, this creates a huge financial risk.  So what should people do to evaluate climate risks and insurance availability during their housing search? And how can governments help insurers weather the increasing frequency of climate-induced disasters so they can continue to underwrite our homes? Guests: Rachel Cleetus, Senior Policy Director, Union of Concerned Scientists Claire O'Connor, Los Angeles real estate agent and homeowner Dave Jones, Director, Climate Risk Initiative at the Center for Law, Energy & the Environment, UC Berkeley  This episode also includes a news feature produced by Camryn Sanchez of KJZZ in Phoenix.
