Podcasts about Inflation

Most people think they understand the dollar. When the dollar goes up, they think that means America is strong. Good economy. Good policy. Maybe the Federal Reserve is doing a good job and investors are “choosing America.” And when the dollar goes down, they think that must be bad. Inflation. Debasement. Money printing. The end of dollar dominance and the famous “dollar doom” story. But what if those are completely backwards?Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

Inflation is back at 4.2%, the Fed is suddenly looking less “patient” and more “are we doing this again?," mortgage rates are flirting with the wrong side of uncomfortable, and the bond market is basically standing in the corner whispering, “I told you so.” In this episode, Chris, Saied and Rajeil break down the latest CPI print, why 7% mortgage rates may not be off the table, how today's inflation setup is starting to rhyme a little too hard with the 1970s, and why the market is still partying like AI, SpaceX, and IPO hype can solve every macro problem. Spoiler: they cannot. Also, somehow, we get from Fed policy to stolen oil tankers, WWE nostalgia, ear holes, and anonymous bags of dicks. Welcome back to The Higher Standard.

Episode 304 reunites The Analysts — Remarkable Retail's celebrated panel of Forrester's Sucharita Kodali, Guggenheim's Simeon Siegel, and GlobalData's Neil Saunders — to take stock of retail coming out of earnings season. Steve Dennis and Michael LeBlanc open on the paradox of 2026: results are largely strong, sentiment is dismal. Simeon argues the link between the two is "tenuous at best" — people talk one way and spend another. Neil has the data: roughly 60% of shoppers who expect the economy to worsen still spent more than a year ago, propped up by spring tax refunds that won't repeat. Then the K-shaped economy. Higher-income households drive most of the real volume growth; middle-income shoppers prop up value growth mainly because prices are higher. Sucharita revisits "peak ambiguity" and the "vibe session," noting record sales barely outrun stubborn inflation. The panel unpacks the standouts — Ross's 17% comp, Victoria's Secret up 15% — and debates GLP-1's role in surging apparel and beauty: wardrobe replacement, new confidence, trading up to statement pieces. On turnarounds, Simeon lands the episode's sharpest thesis: brands "ubiquitize" and peak around $3–4 billion in the US. Lululemon got too big, over-distributed, and over-earning — so the bad sales have to "walk out the door" before the brand can re-elevate, the same lens that frames Nike's long reset. He and Sucharita draw the Gap parallel ahead of Simeon's on-stage interview with Mickey Drexler, noting Old Navy now dwarfs Gap itself. Neil makes the case for Macy's under Tony Spring — basics fixed first, satisfaction and visitation improving — while Steve stays skeptical of the pace. Next, the DTC reckoning. Simeon reframes his old "DTC is not all it's cracked up to be" call as "anti-anti-wholesale": outside high-margin luxury, nearly every brand needs a healthy wholesale business — and stores remain the best channel because "the customer is your employee." Sucharita pushes back on the AI narrative, reminding everyone it's far more than generative hype, as the panel digs into why scaled players — Amazon, Walmart, Costco, off-price — keep compounding through retail media, marketplaces, and flywheel economics. It closes on the wealth effect, trillion-dollar market caps, and whether a market correction could rattle high-end spending — then rapid-fire hot takes: brands to watch (Cozey, Ross Stores, Goyard) and what's on each analyst's radar, from inflation and surging oil prices to a quiet "middle of the doughnut" news lull and an election year's hunt for stability.

India is now being forced to ration diesel fuel for the first time maybe ever. At the same time, global stocks of crude oil are at their lowest since 2003. Even inventories here in the US have been drained to levels we haven't witnessed in 20 years. In other words, as hopes for a peace deal with Iran rise, our attention must now turn to this critical next stage. While the conflict might subside, hopefully, this thing is far from over. Eurodollar University's conversation w/Steve Van Metre-------------------------------------------------------------If you have a retirement account and you've been wondering whether crypto belongs inside it, BlockTrustIRA is something worth looking into.

Last Wednesday's CPI report, while not a surprise, still showed a year-over-year inflation rate of 4.2% - higher than in any month since April, 2023. For investors, this raises a number of questions. First, is this the peak for U.S. inflation and, if it is, how fast will inflation fall from here? Second, are we looking at the right inflation rate, anyway, given differences between CPI and PCE deflators, headline and core measures and the new Fed Chairman's preference for trimmed mean and median readings?

Tyler Herriage suggests going long on stocks after the U.S. and Iran announced plans to sign a memorandum of understanding this week. He expects 10-year yields to fall below 4% on expectations that inflation will move "much lower" and sees an interest rate cut from the Fed before the end of the year. Gold is the commodity Tyler sees the greatest upside in, offering a target of $6,000. This momentum backs the bull run, as Tyler expects any tech dips to getting bought immediately. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast: 1) The US and Iran reached an interim agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, halting a war that killed thousands of people and setting the stage for negotiations on the fate of Tehran’s nuclear program. Officials from the two countries will meet in Switzerland to formally sign the agreement, with key sticking points left for the next stage of talks, including the removal of sanctions and financial incentives for Iran. The agreement could bring peace and security to the region, but its details remain unresolved, and both sides are casting the deal in different lights, underscoring the difficulties that may lie ahead in resolving outstanding issues. 2) Inflation is roaring back at the fastest pace in three years, and investors have been dumping US Treasury bonds and piling into bets the Fed will need to start raising rates by December. Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh is facing an unusually high-stakes test in his first FOMC meeting as Fed chair, with his maiden press conference and the Fed's post-meeting statement and forecasts to be scoured for clues on what's next. Warsh's commitment to maintaining the bank's political independence will be reassured if he sends a convincing message that the Fed is willing to shift back into inflation-fighting mode, but falling short will rattle markets already worried he could jeopardize the Fed's credibility. 3) SpaceX shares jumped in premarket trading Monday, after its blockbuster debut Friday vaulted it into the ranks of the world’s most valuable public companies. The performance helped bolster confidence in the artificial intelligence rally, following SpaceX’s embrace of AI earlier this year with the acquisition of Musk’s xAI. It also boosted the IPO prospects of Anthropic PBC and OpenAI, both of which plan go public themselves.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ein Kampfsportspektakel der besonderen Art, das US-Präsident Trump zu seinem Geburtstag (und zum 250. des Landes) auf dem Südrasen des Weißen Hauses inszenierte: In einer Käfigarena gingen Mixed-Martial-Arts-Kämpfer aufeinander los. Die Show erinnerte an die Kämpfe der Gladiatoren im Alten Rom, „Brot und Spiele“ oder vielmehr „Blut und Spiele“, stellen Ingo Zamperoni und seine Frau Jiffer Bourguignon fest.Eine Demonstration von Macht, Stärke und Dominanz, meint der Tagesthemen-Moderator. „So ein Spektakel lenkt ab von dem, was derzeit nicht so gut läuft: Trumps schlechten Umfragewerten, den hohen Spritpreisen oder der steigenden Inflation.“ Jiffer sagt, eine derartige Vermischung von Amt und Entertainment – und dann noch auf Kosten der Steuerzahler – habe es in der US-Geschichte noch nie gegeben.Ingo und Jiffer freuen sich über den Beginn der Fußball-WM und den Sieg der New York Knicks bei den NBA-Finals. Und sie fragen sich, wie der von Trump angekündigte „Deal" im Iran-Krieg zu deuten sei. Typisch Trump, meinen die beiden, eine chaotische Absichtserklärung mit vielen Fragezeichen, aber vielleicht sei das Teil seiner Strategie.Ihr habt Fragen an Jiffer und Ingo?

Let's talk about inflation going up and deflation as a wish….

The European Central Bank just raised rates on Thursday into an economy that is already shrinking. That sentence should sound familiar, because Europe has done this before. Not once. Twice. The two questions we now want to ask are, first, whether the ECB's action will pull others including the Fed into this rate hiking gambit. Second, how long could they hang on hawking before they have to turn around. And what can the markets tell us about both. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------If you have a retirement account and you've been wondering whether crypto belongs inside it, BlockTrustIRA is something worth looking into.

I'm concerned because I don't know how any political movement survives this level of public self-destruction. These people are EVIL.Seriously, what is the sales pitch anymore?Imagine you're recruiting for the Democratic Party in 2026."Come join us. We oppose voter ID. We defend government waste until someone finds it. We support policies voters reject, then call the voters the problem. We lose elections and immediately begin holding seminars on why reality is unfair."Who signs up for that?And yet somehow they're still here.It's like watching a political version of a mall store that's been "Going Out of Business" since 1997. Every time you drive by, the liquidation signs are bigger, the windows are dirtier, and somehow they're still open.[ARC] Democrats LeavingTake Florida House Democrat Lindsay Cross.She recently announced she won't seek reelection.Now maybe there are personal reasons. Politics is demanding work. But if I were a Democrat officeholder looking around at my party right now, I'd probably be checking emergency exits too.Because what exactly are these people defending anymore?Every week Democrats discover a new hill to die on.Not a mountain.Not a strategic position.A hill.A tiny, insignificant mound that normal Americans didn't even know existed until Democrats climbed on top of it waving a flag.The latest example?President Trump wants to beautify Washington, D.C.And Democrats are upset.Think about how remarkable that is.There are wars.Inflation concerns.Crime.The border.National debt.But somewhere in America sits a Democrat operative furiously typing a memo titled: "Why Cleaner Streets Are A Threat To Democracy."You couldn't parody these people aggressively enough to catch up with reality.And what fascinates me isn't their insanity. It's their honesty.They're finally saying the quiet part out loud.For decades, Democrats wrapped radical ideas in beautiful language.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Donald Trump says he loves inflation. Seriously.

We talked about why inflation is so dangerous in retirement, how stocks can help you stay ahead of inflation, why dividend growth matters, how bonds behave in rising rate environments, and how tools like TIPS and I Bonds can fit into a broader strategy. We also talked about practical steps like reducing high-interest debt and managing spending more intentionally. Today I want to zoom out and talk about the bigger picture.

X: @RepFine @americasrt1776 @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk @JTitMVirginia Join America's Roundtable radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with U.S. Congressman Randy Fine, member of the House Foreign Relations Committee and the Education and Workforce Committee. He is one of the most effective communicators in Congress in advancing our shared values and principles. A third-generation Floridian, Randy built a career as a successful entrepreneur, founding and running businesses in retail, technology, and hospitality. He has been an active Boy Scout volunteer, serving as both Cubmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster. The son of two public school teachers, Randy graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College with a degree in government and later earned his MBA from Harvard Business School, where he graduated with high distinction as one of the youngest Baker Scholars in decades. Congressman Fine also serves as a member of the Freedom Caucus, Republican Study Committee and the Judea and Samaria Caucus. The conversation will explore practical and principled approaches to reducing the cost of housing and healthcare, as well as the critical importance of election integrity, with a strong majority of Americans supporting voter identification requirements, according to Pew Research. Recent studies cited by the White House suggest a correlation between the deportation of individuals residing in the United States illegally and declining housing costs in several major metropolitan areas. The Trump administration noted that "14 of the top 20 U.S. metro areas with the largest undocumented migrant populations experienced year-over-year declines in home listing prices."

I was on a panel with veteran geologist Brent Cook earlier in the week and something he said rather struck me.“It's shaping up to be a brutal summer for mining companies.”Brent CookLooking at the chart below, it's hard to disagree.The Gold Miners Bullish Percent Index has fallen to zero.Not 5 or 10, but zero. That's lower in the in the crash of 2008 and during the Covid panic. It has only ever reached this level during the darkest days of the great gold bear market of 2011-16, and even then only twice.This chart measures the percentage of gold mining stocks that are on Point & Figure buy signals. If every stock is on a buy signal, the reading is 100. If none are, the reading is zero.A reading of zero does not mean prices cannot fall further, only that not a single stock in the index is in a technical uptrend.Readings like this only occur at moments of extreme pessimism. But what makes today's reading so unusual is the backdrop.In 2008, everything was crashing. In 2013 and 2015, gold itself was in a vicious bear market. During the Covid panic everything was crashing. Today, gold's above $4,000; silver's above $60.The fundamentals for higher prices - central bank buying, irretrievable government spending and, in the case of silver, industrial demand - remain. Yet the mining shares are in the swanny.And these are monthly charts. Such extremes take time to develop. Daily and weekly indicators can hit zero fairly easily. Monthly indicators rarely do.This is an extraordinary breadth washout. Why is it happening?Inflation (in the true meaning of the word)When gold and silver went bananas late last year and early this, mining companies took advantage of the frenzy, as they always do, to raise capital. Bucket loads were raised.Typically in Canada there is a four-month hold after a capital raise. It means that capital raised in January, for example, only came free trading last month and capital raised in February is only coming free trading now.Somebody has to buy all that paper, and, if they don't, prices fall until somebody does buy it.Add that to the broader decline in the underlying metals prices, especially gold and silver, and you can see why junior mining is having such a rough time of it, and why Brent thinks things are going to get brutal.Too much paper.Not enough people to buy it.The sector simply needs time to digest all that paper. Another leg higher in gold and silver would increase buying, but for now money is flowing in the opposite direction.Such extremes can prove excellent buying opportunities - though if you bought the 2013 dip you had a wait on your hands - but we have all this paper to get through.Many miners are terrible businesses, years from any cashflow. Costs, especially energy, have risen. Dilution is relentless.The bear case is that mining stocks are warning us that gold and silver are headed lower.On the other hand, the economics of mining have changed with gold and silver this high. Producers should make a lot of money. They will need to replenish lost ounces. The value of deposits has changed. Previously uneconomic mines start to look viable. The value of genuine new discoveries is immense.The bull case is that miners are pricing a disaster that doesn't come. Gold and silver stabilise, the financing overhang eventually clears and the sector re-rates sharply higher. We are near capitulation.With a BPI reading of zero, one thing is certain: the sector is not over-owned.Given that June typically sees the low for the year in gold and silver, I favour the bull case. But the summer is always weak. We might have a while to wait if my ongoing thesis that gold and silver range trade for a year proves true.This is not 2011-16.It's a mid-cycle correction.The question is not so much whether the sector is hated or not. The chart tells us it is. The question is how much longer investors can stay this pessimistic if gold remains above $4,000 and silver above $60.Lifetime subscription prices go up tomorrow and other mattersTurning to other matters, here is this week's commentary in case you missed it:And a reminder that you have one more day to buy a Lifetime Subscription before prices go up.

This week, Dave Spano and Dr. Brian Jacobsen break down rising geopolitical tension, spotlighted by developments in Iran, alongside a fresh batch of economic data shaping today's market narrative. Inflation is still running hot as consumer confidence slips and small business optimism cools, even while housing and trade offer a few bright spots. They also take a closer look at the uptick in IPO activity, from AI heavyweight OpenAI to more traditional companies, and what it may reveal about investor sentiment, plus practical conversations on tax filing strategies for couples and why more Americans are tapping into their 401(k)s.

There may simply be no avoiding a spike in inflation. Latest data from Infometrics and Foodstuffs shows grocery supplier cost inflation is rising again - reaching 2.2% in the year to May. Many economists now expect CPI inflation to surpass four-percent in the year to June. Infometrics Principal Economist Brad Olsen told Mike Hosking that a US-Iran peace deal probably won't change much in the short term. He says businesses are waiting to see ships carrying oil moving again through the Strait of Hormuz. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

June 13, 2026; 8am: On Friday, a federal judge extended an indefinite block on Trump's $1.8 billion so-called “anti-weaponization” fund. In her decision, the judge cited acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's unwillingness to rescind the order in writing, as well as Trump's continued public push for the fund. The judge said she will consider rescinding her order if the DOJ submits a sworn written declaration that the administration is not moving forward with the fund, and is giving them until next Friday to act. Former Federal Prosecutor Ankush Khardori and Skye Perryman, whose nonprofit organization represented the plaintiffs challenging the fund, join “The Weekend” to discuss.

Let's talk about how Trump learned to stop worrying and love inflation.…

Today, “Marketplace Morning Report” Kimberly Adams is joined by economist Lauren Saidel-Baker with ITR Economics to break down the results. The food manufacturer Campbell's reported a 4% decline in sales, citing inflationary pressures and softer demand, while Smucker's, Dollar General, and Five Below all flagged consumer stress in their outlooks. Later in the show, we look at how longstanding challenges for rural Alabama communities accessing healthcare might get worse because of federal policy changes.

Iran Hits Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan. Trump vs Gov Wes Moore in Golf. World Cup Begins and Team USA Plays Tomorrow!  Trump told a room full of Americans he "loves inflation" — while working families are getting strangled at the grocery store and the gas pump. Meanwhile, Senator Markwayne Mullin is openly fantasizing about siccing ICE on New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, treating federal immigration enforcement like a personal political weapon. This is what the rigged two-party system looks like when the masks slip: a billionaire class that profits from your pain and a MAGA machine that uses federal agencies as enforcers. Paul Rieckhoff cuts through it with a no-BS solo briefing built for the 90 million independent voters who are sick of being lied to by both sides. This episode moves fast — from the economic gaslighting coming out of the White House, to the constitutional alarm bells ringing over ICE being deployed as a political cudgel, to a genuine moment of American unity courtesy of the New York Knicks. Paul connects the dots between cultural touchstones and political rot, lays out what the angry middle should actually be watching, and points to where righteous anger can be translated into real-world impact.
