Podcasts about Inflation

As the Iran conflict upends market narratives, our Global Head of Fixed Income Research Andrew Sheets offers his take on how to view the historic disruption happening in March and what the next few weeks could bring.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Andrew Sheets: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Global Head of Fixed Income Research at Morgan Stanley. Today on the program, a survey of just how quickly key narratives have changed and how lasting that might be. It's Friday, March 20th at 2pm in London. The NCAA basketball tournament, also known as March Madness, is one of my favorite times of the year. The single elimination tournament of 64 teams is wonderfully chaotic with plenty of surprises, especially in the early games. And basketball is one of those sports where momentum often seems real. A team that has somehow forgotten how to shoot in the first half of the game can suddenly look unstoppable in the second. As I said, March is one of my favorite times to watch sports. It is often not one of my favorite times to forecast markets. In 2005, 2008, 2020, 2022, 2023, and 2025, March saw outsized market volatility. And it's the case again this year. I'm sure, it's just a coincidence. This time, it's not just about a historic disruption to the energy markets, which my colleague Martijn Rats and I discussed on this program last week. It's also a major reversal of the market storyline. If this were a basketball game, the momentum just flipped. In January and February of 2026, there were strong overlapping signals that the U.S. and global economy were in a good – even accelerating – place, boosted by cheap energy, stimulative policy, and robust AI investment. Oil prices were down as metals, transports, cyclicals and financial stocks, all rose. Europe, Asia, and emerging market equities – all more sensitive to global growth – were outperforming. Inflation was moderating. Central banks were planning to lower interest rates. The yield curve was steepening and the U.S. dollar was weakening. The January U.S. Jobs report was pretty good. And then … it all changed. In a moment, the Iran conflict and the subsequent risk of an oil price shock flipped almost every single one of those storylines on its head. Now, oil prices rose and the prices for metals, transports, cyclicals and financial stocks all fell. Equities in Europe and Asia – regions that rely heavily on importing oil – underperformed. The U.S. dollar rose as investors sought out safe haven. Inflation jumped following oil prices. The yield curve flattened on that higher inflation, as we and many other forecasters adjusted our expectations for what central banks would do. And, as it happens, the last U.S. Jobs report was pretty bad. If the Iran conflict ends and oil resumes flowing through the Strait of Hormuz, it's very possible that this story could once again swing back. But until it does, the speed of which this momentum has flipped means that almost by definition, many investors have been caught off guard and left poorly positioned. If you couple that with the challenge of diversifying in this new environment – where the prices for stocks, bonds, and even gold have all been moving in the same direction – the path of least resistance for investors may be to continue to reduce their exposure to ride out the storm, driving further near term weakness.Unfortunately, that could make for an uncomfortable few weeks. At least, there's some good basketball on. Thank you as always, for your time. If you find Thoughts on the Market useful, let us know by leaving a review wherever you listen.

In this episode, Scott Becker explores how rising national debt and inflation are driving higher housing prices, with low inventory and government spending creating a cycle that keeps affordability out of reach.

In this episode, Liz Ann Sonders welcomes Collin Martin as her new co‑host. Collin outlines his role as Schwab's head of fixed income research and strategy, highlighting his broad coverage of the bond market—from Treasuries and Fed policy to corporate credit, municipals, mortgages, and global bonds.  The conversation then turns to markets and geopolitics, focusing on the ongoing conflict involving Iran and its market impact. Liz Ann explains that while major equity indexes have appeared relatively resilient, this masks significant volatility beneath the surface. She notes sharp rotations across sectors, wide drawdowns among individual stocks, and heightened churn driven by shifting narratives—ranging from AI disruption concerns to war‑related energy shocks.  Collin connects these equity dynamics to fixed income, explaining why Treasury yields have risen rather than fallen despite geopolitical uncertainty. Elevated oil prices and rising inflation expectations have pushed yields higher, countering the typical “flight to safety” dynamic. He also highlights how shifting Fed expectations are influencing bond markets and raises the key uncertainty: whether prolonged conflict could eventually tilt the focus from inflation risk to economic growth risk, potentially reversing yield trends.

Data contained herein from third party providers is obtained from what are considered reliable sources. However, its accuracy, completeness or reliability cannot be guaranteed. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investing involves risk, including loss of principal. Performance may be affected by risks associated with non-diversification, including investments in specific countries or sectors. Additional risks may also include, but are not limited to, investments in foreign securities, especially emerging markets, real estate investment trusts (REITs), fixed income, municipal securities including state specific municipal securities, small capitalization securities and commodities. Each individual investor should consider these risks carefully before investing in a particular security or strategy. Preferred securities are a type of hybrid investment that share characteristics of both stock and bonds. They are often callable, meaning the issuing company may redeem the security at a certain price after a certain date. Such call features, and the timing of a call, may affect the security's yield. Preferred securities generally have lower credit ratings and a lower claim to assets than the issuer's individual bonds. Like bonds, prices of preferred securities tend to move inversely with interest rates, so their prices may fall during periods of rising interest rates. Investment value will fluctuate, and preferred securities, when sold before maturity, may be worth more or less than original cost. Preferred securities are subject to various other risks including changes in interest rates and credit quality, default risks, market valuations, liquidity, prepayments, early redemption, deferral risk, corporate events, tax ramifications, and other factors. Mortgage-backed securities (MBS) may be more sensitive to interest rate changes than other fixed income investments. They are subject to extension risk, where borrowers extend the duration of their mortgages as interest rates rise, and prepayment risk, where borrowers pay off their mortgages earlier as interest rates fall. These risks may reduce returns.

Ravi Gupta breaks down the escalating chaos around Donald Trump's Iran strategy as he contradicts himself in real time, from surprise attacks across the Middle East to claiming he predicted it all along, while a dizzying series of statements on the Strait of Hormuz leaves allies confused and unwilling to step in. He analyzes Trump's shifting demands for international help, including the economic and geopolitical fallout. Ravi also dives into warning signs in the economy, including rising inflation, new data showing consumer spending concentrated among the wealthy, and the disconnect facing everyday Americans at the gas pump. Plus, he discusses Trump's push for the SAVE America Act, the mounting Senate showdown over voting restrictions, and what it all signals for the future of U.S. democracy.

Deutsche Bank. Wells Fargo. Both global systemically important banks are sitting here watching their stocks get pounded in the same way as BlackRock or Blackstone. Thankfully, not as bad as Blue Owl.

After the war with Iran began, the dollar recorded its largest weekly advance since November 2024. But another traditional favorite destination for investors seeking safety, long term Treasury bonds, performed very different. In this week's report, Confluence Chief Market Strategist Patrick Fearon-Hernandez asks the question, are long term Treasurys no longer a safe haven? The answer to this question has obvious implications for investment strategies.

A simply brutal reminder from Canada about the real state of the global economy. The Canadians backed up the US payroll number for February, except in Canada it was the largest loss of jobs since 2022. As one big bank economist put it, this is a “simply brutal” result. While everyone has been talking, really hoping for reflation maybe recovery, the opposite keeps showing up instead. Especially where it comes to employment. 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.

Oil’s Big move – one for the record books. Markets in a slight panic – not too worse for ware. Inflation numbers are out – but does anyone care? And our special guest is Thomas Peterffy – Chairman and Founder of Interactive Brokers. NEW! DOWNLOAD THIS EPISODE'S AI GENERATED SHOW NOTES (Guest Segment) Thomas Peterffy is the Chairman and Founder of Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. a global electronic brokerage firm. He has been at the forefront of applying computer technology to automate trading and brokerage processes since soon after he emigrated from Hungary to the United States in 1965.

On the show this week, I draw on real-world experiences from current retirees to uncover the surprises, challenges, and valuable lessons they wish they'd known before stepping into retirement. If you're curious about the realities of social interaction after leaving the workforce, managing rising healthcare costs, or navigating company-specific 401(k) features, this episode is for you.    You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00] Retirement lessons from retirees [08:23] Prioritizing tax planning in retirement [15:06] Retirement accounts & investment insights [20:20] Surprises, joys, and challenges of retirement [25:40] Retirement costs and income trends [29:33] Feeling free and contented as a retiree   Real-World Wisdom for a Confident Retirement We imagine endless free time, new adventures, and freedom from work stress—but what is retirement really like? In my years guiding clients through retirement, I often ask retirees, "What surprised you most?" What do you wish you'd known? What would you warn others about? These questions have uncovered truths that go beyond finances and touch on the emotional, social, and practical realities of retirement. Social Connections: The One Thing You Can't Save for in an Account One of the biggest things retirees miss from their working years is the daily social interaction. While the freedom from commutes, meetings, and workplace stress is lauded, losing those daily connections can leave a gap that's hard to fill. For those who draw much of their sense of identity and purpose from their careers, this can be especially jarring. Structuring your weeks, finding new sources of community, and keeping your mind engaged become just as important as managing your income streams. Health, Taxes, and the True Cost of Living Even with careful planning, some expenses in retirement can catch people off guard. Health insurance costs (including deductibles, vision, and dental plans) often rise higher than expected. The end of workplace group insurance makes the cost and complexity of health coverage feel much more real. Inflation and utility bills also bite into budgets—sometimes spiking enough that even conservative projections fall short. For example, one of my clients saw their trash bill go up by 35% and their homeowners' insurance by 25% in a single year. Taxes are another recurring theme. Many are surprised to learn that not only do taxes not disappear in retirement, but they can be significant, particularly with Social Security benefits subject to federal (and, in some states, local) taxation. Time, Freedom, and Flexibility It's not all challenges, of course. Many retirees I know say they actually enjoy retirement more than expected. The ability to control your schedule, indulge in more travel (with strategic timing to save money), and enjoy less stress are rewards that many say "you can't put a price on." When every day is a Saturday, the power to choose makes all the difference. Preparation Outweighs Guesswork If there's one recurring thread, it's this: those who enjoy retirement most are the ones who entered it with a clear, written plan. Whether forced into it early by layoffs or health issues, or able to choose the optimal time, being prepared gives you confidence and flexibility. My advice is don't wait, start planning well before your retirement date, and remember to factor in the emotional side of retirement, not just the dollars and cents. Then review your plan with professionals who can help you adapt as things change. Retirement isn't just about the numbers, it's about building a life with meaning, joy, and resilience. Listen to those who've been there, adapt to life's surprises, and give yourself the best chance to retire strong, happy, and worry-free.   Resources & People Mentioned 3 Steps to Retirement Planning   Connect With Gregg Gonzalez Email at: Gregg.gonzalez@lpl.com Podcast: https://RetireStrongFA.com/Podcast Website: https://RetireStrongFA.com/ Follow Gregg on LinkedIn Follow Gregg on Facebook Follow Gregg on YouTube Subscribe to Retirement Made Easy On Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts

Gold falls as war drives oil higher, but Peter Schiff says stagflation, deficits, and a weaker dollar are setting up gold's next major surge. Peter Schiff explains why the latest pullback in gold, silver, and mining stocks is not a sign that the bull market is over, but a temporary reaction to rising oil prices, higher bond yields, and a stronger dollar. He argues that markets are focusing too narrowly on delayed Fed rate cuts while missing the bigger picture: war-driven deficits, stubborn inflation, a weakening economy, and mounting pressure on the Federal Reserve to eventually monetize even more debt. He also breaks down soft GDP growth, rising PCE inflation, weakness in housing, and what he sees as the widening gap between Trump's economic claims and the underlying data. Schiff's core thesis is that stagflation, war spending, and long-term dollar weakness remain strongly bullish for gold and silver, while the current selloff is creating another buying opportunity.

In this episode of The Bruce Collins Show, Bruce sits down with financial author and analyst John Rubino to examine a question that is quietly moving from the fringe into mainstream economic discussion: Is the collapse of the U.S. financial system inevitable?  Rubino, known for his work on debt cycles, monetary policy, and systemic risk, breaks down the structural pressures building inside the American economy—from exploding national debt to fragile banking systems and the long-term consequences of decades of money creation.The conversation explores whether the current economic model can continue indefinitely, or if the United States is approaching a turning point similar to past historical monetary resets.Topics Covered• The unsustainable growth of U.S. national debt and deficit spending• How central bank policies have reshaped the global financial system• Why interest rates and inflation are becoming increasingly difficult to control• The fragility of modern banking and the risk of cascading failures• Historical examples of monetary systems that eventually collapsed• The potential role of gold, hard assets, and alternative financial systems• How geopolitical shifts could accelerate economic instability• What a “reset” of the financial system might look likeRubino also discusses the psychological and political barriers that prevent meaningful reform before a crisis occurs, and why many analysts believe the current trajectory could eventually force dramatic economic restructuring.About John RubinoJohn Rubino is a financial writer, analyst, and the author of several books on debt, monetary policy, and economic cycles. His work has focused on the risks created by excessive leverage and the long-term consequences of central bank intervention in global markets.About The Bruce Collins ShowThe Bruce Collins Show features in-depth conversations with researchers, economists, historians, and investigators exploring the forces shaping our world—from economics and geopolitics to history and emerging technologies.Watch / ListenWatch the full episode to hear the complete discussion and judge for yourself whether the economic pressures facing the United States point toward reform… or something much larger.

Morgan Stanley's $8 billion North Haven Private Income Fund becomes the latest shadow banking giant to both get hit with massive investor withdrawals and to deny most of them. Cliffwater also decided it was going to do the same.

Mark and Marisa are joined once again by colleagues Chris Lafakis and Juan Pablo Fuentes to discuss the past week's developments in the Middle East and whether the forecast has changed as a result. Matt Colyar joins to review the week's release of inflation data, which show stickiness in inflation prior to the $40 jump in oil prices since the start of the year. After a review of weak reports on GDP, spending and confidence, Chris and Juan Pablo discuss how the jump in oil prices and the unprecedented supply shock will affect consumer spending and growth. The group posits their forecasts for how and when the conflict may end.  Guests: Matt Colyar, Chris Lafakis and Juan Pablo Fuentes For a deeper dive on AI and the macroeconomy, see our new paper, The Macroeconomic Consequences of Artificial Intelligence, where we model four potential economic paths over the next decade.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes David Hunter to the show. David Hunter is Chief Macro Strategist with Contrarian Macro Advisors. David provides a comprehensive macro outlook that anticipates a significant market transformation in the coming years. He believes the current market is in the late stages of a 43-year secular bull market, with a potential melt-up phase that could see the S&P 500 reaching 9,500 by mid-year or Labor Day. However, he warns of an impending “bust” that could result in an 80% market decline, potentially worse than the 2008-2009 financial crisis. Hunter’s analysis suggests a complex economic landscape where initial deflationary pressures will give way to potentially hyperinflationary conditions by the early 2030s. He anticipates central banks will be slow to respond to the economic downturn, potentially requiring up to 20 trillion in quantitative easing to stabilize the system. The federal balance sheet could expand from the current 6.5 trillion to as much as 30 trillion. Regarding asset classes, Hunter recommends a strategic approach to capital preservation. He believes the current investment mantra of “time in the market” will be insufficient and investors should consider carefully timing their exit from markets. He expects significant opportunities in commodities and industrial sectors, with potential dramatic price increases in oil, copper, and precious metals. For gold specifically, Hunter forecasts a potential rise to $6,800 this year and potentially $20,000 by the early 2030s. He views gold as a potential hedge against the massive economic restructuring he anticipates. His outlook extends to a potential systemic financial reset between 2033-2035, which he describes as the end of an 80-90 year economic supercycle. Hunter emphasizes that while the coming economic transformation will be challenging, it will also create new investment opportunities, particularly in industrial and commodity sectors. He advises investors to remain flexible and prepared for significant market disruptions.

Die Folgen des Iran-Kriegs treffen auf Deutschland. Der Öl- und Gaspreis steigt, Angst vor Inflation macht sich breit und die zarte Hoffnung auf einen wirtschaftlichen Aufbruch könnte schnell wieder verflogen sein. War es das mit der von Kanzler Friedrich Merz versprochenen Wirtschaftswende? Besonders betroffen vom wirtschaftlichen Strukturwandel ist Baden-Württemberg. Hier wird voraussichtlich Cem Özdemir Ministerpräsident werden. Ist ausgerechnet ein Grüner der Richtige für den Wirtschaftswandel? Galten die Grünen nicht als „die Verbotspartei“, die paternalistisch alles mit Vorschriften regeln will und so die Wirtschaft abwürgt? Die CDU und ihre Wirtschaftsministerin Katherina Reiche wollten doch eigentlich alles anders machen als Vorgänger Robert Habeck und weniger in den Markt eingreifen. Gilt das auch noch, wenn der Spritpreis immer weiter steigt? Markus Lanz und Richard David Precht sprechen in dieser Folge über die grundsätzliche Frage: Wie viel Staat wollen wir in der Krise? Richard David Precht kann Verboten einiges abgewinnen. Er erinnert an das Rauchverbot in öffentlichen Räumen oder an das Verbot von FCKW. „Die Menschen lieben Verbote“, sagte er schon 2019. Markus Lanz hält dagegen, Verbote sind für ihn der falsche Weg.

With CPI and Core CPI still running above the Fed's target, inflation remains stubbornly persistent, raising new questions for businesses and consumers alike. Lauren also examines how rising geopolitical tensions and potential disruptions in global oil supply could influence energy prices and consumer budgets. While the impact may be temporary, the combination of higher energy costs and growing electricity demand from AI and data centers could complicate the Fed's path toward rate cuts. What does this mean for inflation trends, business planning, and the likelihood of interest rate relief this year? Watch the full episode to understand the forces shaping the economic outlook and what to watch next. 00:02 – Inflation remains sticky: CPI and Core CPI update 00:42 – Middle East tensions and risks to global oil supply 02:12 – How higher energy prices impact consumers 03:25 – Why energy costs matter less than they used to 04:05 – AI, data centers, and rising electricity demand 04:45 – What sticky inflation means for Fed rate cuts 05:30 – Other economic data: GDP, housing, and labor market

As geopolitical tensions in the Middle East raise the prospect of a more prolonged energy shock, how should investors think about the implications for inflation, consumer behavior, and markets? Global Head of Commodity Strategy Helima Croft, Chief Economist Frances Donald, and Head of U.S. Equity Strategy Lori Calvasina discuss what a disruption in oil supply could mean for the macro outlook — and why the longer‑term picture may be more resilient than headlines suggest.

Erik Lundh gauges today's economic data, including GDP, and how the conflict in Iran could affect future prints. “It's hard to know” whether to reprice growth expectations yet, “all we really have in this environment are question marks.” He shares his outlook for energy costs and the potential economic fallout of sustained high prices. He's concerned about the U.S. consumer “to a certain extent” as debt and delinquencies rise.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Oil prices are exploding past $93 a barrel as Trump's unconditional surrender demand sends shockwaves through markets—but here's the real inflation culprit nobody's talking about, and why the Fed's rate cuts are about to make everything worse.- This episode is sponsored by Pebl.

Download Netsuite's free business guide, Demystifying AI, at https://netsuite.com/goldPeter Schiff analyzes the massive oil price surge following Trump's Iran war, with crude jumping from $90 to over $119 per barrel before pulling back slightly as countries coordinate strategic petroleum reserve releases. Schiff argues that while rising oil prices don't directly cause inflation, the government's monetary and fiscal response to fund the war and rebuild Iran will trigger massive money printing and borrowing, creating real inflation across all goods. He criticizes Trump's economic lies, including false claims about $18 trillion in foreign investment and job creation numbers that show only 181,000 jobs created in 2025 versus 2.2 million under Biden's final year.Schiff expresses outrage over Trump's campaign against Congressman Thomas Massey in Kentucky, calling Massey "the best congressman we have" and the only Republican who truly stands for constitutional principles, limited government, and fiscal responsibility. He explains that Massey voted against Trump's "big beautiful" tax bill because it increased spending without corresponding cuts, making it a disguised tax hike rather than genuine tax relief. Schiff sees Trump's attack on Massey as proof that Trump opposes real conservative principles, preferring rubber-stamp politicians over principled representatives who honor their constitutional oath.Chapters:00:00:00 Show Cold Open00:00:55 War and Oil Shock00:09:45 Inflation and Fed Blame00:16:20 Unconditional Surrender Walkback00:21:57 Dollar Power and Gold Outlook00:29:31 Mining Stocks Selloff00:31:14 Oil Spike and Profits00:32:24 How to Buy Exposure00:33:41 CPI and Inflation Reality00:37:27 Massey Trump and MediaFollow @peterschiffX: https://twitter.com/peterschiffInstagram: https://instagram.com/peterschiffTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@peterschiffofficialFacebook: https://facebook.com/peterschiffFree Reports & Market Updates: https://www.europac.comBook Store: https://schiffradio.com/booksSign up for Peter's most valuable insights at https://schiffsovereign.comSchiff Gold News: https://www.schiffgold.com/news#PeterSchiffShow #OilPrices #GoldInvestingOur Sponsors:* Check out Quince: https://quince.com/GOLD* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code GOLD20 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Democratic Party shift did not happen overnight. The Democratic Party shift was the result of a decades-long ideological capture. In this episode, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down the dramatic transformation of the Democratic Party. From the common-sense Clinton-era positions on border security and national sovereignty to today's Democratic Socialist influence, this episode exposes how the party shifted from mainstream policies to an activist-driven agenda. Heading into the 2026 midterms, this episode analyzes the Three Pillars of the modern Democratic strategy: Anti-Trump mobilization, government expansion, and identity politics. It also examines the Texas Senate primary and the rise of figures like James Talarico to illustrate how far the political goalposts have moved. What You'll Learn: The Clinton vs. Talarico Contrast: Why 90s Democrats sound like conservatives by today's standards. The DSA Takeover: How the Democratic Socialists of America moved from the fringe to the center of Democratic Party power. Biological Reality vs. Rhetoric: How the Texas Senate race reflects the party's continued shift toward radical identity politics. The 2026 Midterm Warning: Why Republican complacency and rising gas prices from the Iran conflict could create a "perfect storm" for the Left. Governing vs. Grievance: Why bigger government became a substitute for solving actual American problems.

We've been covering the macro housing bust for some time, and while it's still there another major problem has come up and for the same reasons. Mortgage delinquencies and even foreclosures have come into the conversation, especially in places like Texas. Rates continue to tick lower but no one is buying houses, home price growth has completely stalled, and now more borrowers are falling behind on their loans. 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.
