In this powerful and necessary episode of Culture Uncut, DJ Nova Fresh and the team celebrate Juneteenth and unpack its deeper meaning—not just freedom, but what we do with it. From life insurance and estate planning to the Israel-Iran conflict, immigration policy, and media manipulation, this episode is a raw reminder that freedom without preparation is still a trap.
Mark Spindel breaks down the Fed's decision to hold interest rates steady, citing a "wait and see" approach that may soon give way to rate cuts. With 7 officials now forecasting no more cuts in 2025, up from 4 in the last meeting, Spindel believes the Fed is walking a fine line between managing inflation and supporting a softening labor market. Despite no mention of geopolitical risk, Spindel sees potential "banana skins" on the horizon, including a potential increase in the deficit and upward pressure on oil prices.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics the United States added 139,000 “non-farm payroll jobs” in the month of May, 2025. These figures came in close to what experts projected and depending upon one’s ideological perspective, it was either evidence of economic strength and resilience under Trump or a sign of a slowing job market as a result of Trump’s tariff policies and economic uncertainty. What the mainstream media didn’t cover as much were the prior month revisions, or how the demographic shifts are artificially boosting labor participation numbers. With an economic slowdown on the horizon, AI already taking entry-level jobs, recent graduates having trouble finding employment, a quarter of the population participating in the gig economy and an aging population, there is trouble brewing. And some of it is already here. Access the episode resources.

The payroll estimates for May were a total mess. The headline was weak, revisions make it totally unreliable anyway, and it only gets worse from there. A lot worse. The labor market is breaking down and it's getting uncomfortable and dangerous.
Dante joins Mark and Marisa for a rare Cris-free Saturday morning podcast to discuss the May jobs report. Given the report's weakness, the team is equally baffled by the positive news headlines and surging stock market on Friday. The team dissects the large downward revisions to the payroll numbers in recent months and whether this signals a recession ahead. They also debate whether the low unemployment rate is giving a false signal about underlying weakness in the labor market.

Despite a slowing growth picture, the latest jobs report wasn't as bad as feared, and the market is shrugging off recent volatility. Lisa Flicker notes that companies are de-risking by hiring experienced talent and holding onto existing employees, particularly in sectors like healthcare and hospitality. With labor market turnover at historic lows, Flicker sees a "no hire, no fire" environment in certain industries, but believes it's more sector-dependent.======== 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

AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports on a surprising rise in American job openings.
When economic news, especially that revolving around working, gets reported, it tends to get reported in aggregate – the total number of jobs affected or created, the average wage paid, the impact on a defined geographic area. This is an approach labor economist David Autor knows well. But he also knows that the aggregate often masks the effect on the individual. In this Social Science Bites podcast, Autor, the Daniel (1972) and Gail Rubinfeld Professor, Margaret MacVicar Faculty Fellow, Google Technology and Society Visiting Fellow at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, examines two momentous changes to global economics and how they play out for individuals. He explains to interviewer David Edmonds how the rise of China's manufacturing dominance and the widespread adoption of artificial intelligence likely are and will affect individual people accustomed to do specific tasks for pay. What he finds is not as straightforward as the headlines alluded to above. Take China and its remarkable ascent and how that impacted the United States. “[The rise] benefited a lot of people. It lowered prices. It allowed American companies to kind of produce a lot of products more cheaply. You know, it's hard to imagine Apple's growth without China, for example, to do all that assembly, which would have been extremely expensive to do in the United States. At the same time, it displaced a lot of people, more than a million, and in a very geographically and temporarily concentrated way, extremely scarring the labor market. Now those people also got lower prices, but that's not even remote compensation for what they lost. And now there are new jobs -- even in those places where those trade shock occurs -- but it's not really the same people doing them. It's not the people who lost manufacturing work.” Concerns about these shocks have been widespread in the 2020s, but the tough if erratic talk about tariffs coming from the U.S. president centers on the idea of restoring something (while ignoring question of that thing ever existed or if it makes sense to go back). Autor argues that the administration actually is asking the right question – but they are arriving at the wrong answers, He notes that the U.S. currently has a half a million unfilled manufacturing jobs open already, a sizeable figure relative to the nation's 13 million manufacturing workers. But that number itself is roughly a tenth of China's 120 million. “We cannot compete with them across every front. .. What we should be very deeply worried about is losing the frontier sectors that we currently maintain. Those are threatened. So aircraft, telecommunications, robotics, power generation, fusion, quantum computing, batteries and storage, electric vehicles, shipping. These are sectors that we still have (except for shipping, actually) but China is making incredibly fast progress, and instead of trying to get commodity furniture back, we need to think about the current war we're in, not the last war.” At MIT, Autor is co-director of the School Effectiveness and Inequality Initiative, while off campus he is a research associate and co-director of the Labor Studies Program at the National Bureau of Economic Research.
Chuck Zodda and Mike Armstrong discuss the recently released ISM data that dipped further for the month. Is there a major problem on the horizon in the labor market? China hits back against Trump claims that it broke trade truce. US dependence on China for rare earth magnets is causing shortages. Bessent says US will never default as Congress faces endgame.

Charles Schwab's Kathy Jones sees the latest rounds of bond auctions as "good news" for markets as investors learn to navigate the recent rounds of volatility.

In this special episode, recorded live from TransUnion's annual Financial Services Summit in Chicago, hosts Craig and Josh are joined by Paul Gruenwald, Chief Global Economist at S&P Global Ratings. The conversation kicks off with an in-depth exploration of the economic impacts of tariffs, financial implications of tightening federal spending, and why tracking the labor market is key to predicting a recession. Paul then shares his take on the future of the US labor market, including the potential for increased domestic manufacturing, and discusses implications of AI. Shifting gears to global trade, they consider the connections between savings, investments and net exports, and assess the US dollar's status as the global reserve currency. Finally, they examine significant investments in renewable energy projects and macroeconomic impacts of moving away from a fossil fuel-based economy.

In this week's episode, our investment experts explore three major themes from the week: negative real gross domestic product (GDP) growth, inflation, and the labor market. We discuss how these factors affect equity and bond markets, and overall sentiment regarding the economy. We also consider if the relatively positive news from this week continues into the weeks and months ahead, or if the full negative impact of tariffs will make for a sobering summer. 01:51 – The advance estimate for the first quarter of 2025 real gross domestic product showed a 0.3% decrease, signaling the first negative quarter since early 2022. 03:02 – The Bureau of Economic Analysis released favorable data on PCE inflation, which was relatively flat month-over-month, and showed year-over-year growth of 2.3%, which was lower than both January and February. 03:57 – The labor market has a cautiously optimistic outlook based on this week's Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) report, weekly unemployment claims, and better-than-expected growth in new nonfarm payrolls, which gave the markets a bump this morning. 09:13 – Expectations of an early rate cut in June from the Federal Reserve are falling as a result of the positive jobs report. Bond investors feel that future employment reports will be less optimistic, and are thus buying on the dip. 11:36 – Changing tax policy will likely be making news soon, especially on the question of tax-exempt status for universities, though existing bonds are unlikely to be affected. 14:09 – Equity markets hit a 20-day high following a handful of better-than-expected earnings reports this week, mostly from the technology sector. 15:34 – Volatility continues to decline from recent highs, and credit markets appear healthy as evidenced by tightening BBB versus BB credit spreads.

Lisa Flicker shares her insights on the state of the U.S. labor market, which she believes is a story of "haves and have-nots." Despite overall job growth, Flicker notes that certain sectors like construction and healthcare are thriving, while others, such as California's real estate market, are struggling. In hospitality, Flicker points to a trend she calls the "White Lotus effect," where consumers are spending more on experiences despite having less discretionary income, driving hiring and investment in the industry.======== 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
Economic commentators often look at consumer spending as a barometer for confidence and outlook - how good or bad financially do individuals and families think the broader economy is, and how profitable it will be for them? The same can perhaps be said for companies and hiring managers. How confident are they that they will be able to keep people employed in uncertain times, and what skills are they most eager to invest their scarce dollars in? In this week's Art of Supply interview, Kelly Barner speaks with Christine Corson, Managing Director of Supply Chain, Manufacturing, and Engineering Recruitment at DSJ Global. She is focused on manufacturing labor at the management level in a way that allows her to form her own opinion of industry outlook, confidence, and planning horizon.

Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller discusses the impact of the Trump administration’s tariff policy on the US economy and Fed monetary policy. He speaks with Bloomberg's Michael McKee See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Fed has been able to dismiss the economic risks from deteriorating sentiment by emphasizing the steady unemployment rate and decent job growth over the last seven months.
