Podcasts about Recession

The news got you scared… but I'm telling you straight: Recessions don't announce themselves. Bear markets don't send invites. By the time “everybody” agrees it's bad… the real wealth play already passed.

Here's the Proof. The Market Is Screaming FEAR… Here's What That Really Means. This Is NOT an AI Bubble. Here's the Receipts. When Everyone Is Scared… The Market Is ON SALE. Recession Incoming?

After Home Depot disappointed and Target got slammed, Walmart reported results that were above expectations because in this economic climate the Target and Home Depot's losses are Walmart's gains. And its strength came from all income brackets, though high-income Americans are increasingly turning to Walmart. That's not good. But it does fit with the long-delayed payroll data that just came out, which you'll be shocked to learn has another revision turning another monthly number negative.

November 20, 2025:  This episode breaks down six major stories shaping the future of work and the workplace in 2025. A new study reveals the rise of "Cold Work"—a breakdown of trust between employees and managers marked by hidden behaviors, disengagement, and rising hostility. Google CEO Sundar Pichai makes headlines by claiming the CEO role may be "one of the easier things" for AI to replace, adding fuel to the debate about automation and leadership. The Wall Street Journal reports that the AI boom has become "the most joyless tech revolution ever," with worker anxiety rising even as tech stocks soar. New research from Northeastern shows that workers overwhelmingly prefer retraining over safety nets when facing AI disruption. A delayed U.S. jobs report presents a murky economic picture, combining unexpected job growth with a rising unemployment rate. Meanwhile, Verizon announces 13,000 layoffs, underscoring the turbulence across major industries.  

Jeffrey Cleveland doesn't expect the data fog to clear even with the September jobs report. He thinks the labor market has softened since September and highlights the three-month average of payroll growth, noting that typically you don't see slowdown like this outside of a recession. He's “50/50” on the odds of a December rate cut and takes a look at recent Fed speaker comments.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

The European labor market is on the cusp of its own flat Beveridge moment. That danger was amplified by the third quarter contraction in the Swiss economy, which, as we know, is a key leading global indicator. And if all that wasn't enough, a group of German Economists, of all people, just tore into the mainstream European narrative of Europe being in a good place. They even went so far as correctly, of course, crap all over the Berlin bazooka. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------------Get the free guide that breaks down the real economic signals behind America's shrinking consumer demand, and how to protect your wealth before the slowdown hits your income: https://web.eurodollar-university.com/home-------------------------------------------------------------------euronews Weak eurozone growth meets flat jobs market as bankruptcies surgehttps://www.euronews.com/business/2025/11/14/weak-eurozone-growth-meets-flat-jobs-market-as-bankruptcies-surgeBloomberg Merz Advisers Revise 2026 German Growth Forecast to Below 1%https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-12/merz-advisers-revise-2026-german-growth-forecast-to-below-1DW Germany news: Economic experts call for change of coursehttps://www.dw.com/en/germany-news-economic-experts-call-for-change-of-course/live-74708934https://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

An unprecedented slump in Chinese investment. That's what one media outlet called it. I don't think slump is the right word. Crash might be a more appropriate one. While that tends to be overused, the numbers show not in this case. Especially when they are backed up by a crash in household lending in China, too, as Chinese banks just put up more grim stats. And all of this confirmation of what I told you months ago, the something big has changed over there this summer. 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.

In our age of overwhelming technological progress, I still cling to the simpler practices of my youth. I read books rather than tablets, write with an ink pen in cursive rather than text with my thumbs, and attempt to use mental arithmetic, rather than a calculator, in solving math problems. I also greatly prefer an analog watch to a digital one.

Jeff Schulze, Head of Economic and Market Strategy at ClearBridge Investments, discusses the latest US economic outlook and provides insights on the Recession Risk Dashboard. Despite a federal government shutdown delaying official data releases, Jeff shares the alternative indicators he's using and why he thinks they point to continued economic resilience, strong corporate earnings, and a resilient consumer.

In this week's Macro Mondays, Lisa Aziz joins James Brodie and James Todd to break down the key macro trends shaping global markets. With US data delayed after the government shutdown, early indicators point to rising recession risk, weaker labour markets, and falling consumer confidence.AI stocks face renewed volatility as major tech names correct sharply, while Japan's yields surge and China continues to slow. Commodities stay mixed—gold and copper hold firm, oil trades in a tight range, and Bitcoin slips into a bear trend as whale selling accelerates.Key highlights include:✅ 88% of Americans now living in states in recession✅ US foreclosures up 20%; subprime auto delinquencies worst in 30 years✅ China industrial production & investment disappoint✅ UK unemployment rises to 5%; growth slips to 0.1%✅ AI stocks unwind: Oracle –36%, Tesla –15%, CoreWeave –37%✅ Japanese bond yields break to multi-decade highs✅ Dollar-yen breaks out on fears of Japanese credit risk✅ Precious metals spike but broad commodity supercycle unlikely✅ Copper & uranium driven by AI-linked power demand✅ Bitcoin enters bear market; volatility accelerates✅ Central banks: Fed cut odds fall below 50% due to missing data

n this episode, we kick things off by celebrating the 20th anniversary of The Boondocks and revisiting its cultural impact-from its sharp satire to how its themes still hit today. We then slide into nostalgia with Rap City memories before imagining a blockbuster Verzuz: Cash Money vs. No Limit and what that matchup would mean for hip-hop heads. We shift to major music milestones, including Outkast and Salt-N-Pepa entering the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and break down this year's Grammy nominations. There's also big news in the streets: Max B is finally free. In entertainment, we discuss the upcoming Michael Jackson biopic and what audiences should expect. From there, the conversation turns serious: Are celebrities increasingly tone-deaf to real economic struggles? We dive into the reality everyday people face-SNAP benefits paused, travel disruptions, and an economy where survival feels like "kill or be killed." We also touch on the wild story of the $500,000 Navy Federal robbery making headlines. Internationally, China makes waves by requiring influencers to have a degree before discussing serious topics, raising questions about access to information and who gets to shape public discourse. We close with a deep dive into modern focus and digital overwhelm—/s our attention span permanently damaged? What caused this, and is a reset still possible?

Flat Beveridge strikes again. You know the drill. We've been stuck in forgot how to grow and its no-hire/no-fire labor market the past few years. That began to change last year, especially last summer when no-hiring somehow got to be even less hiring. Then last year and this year, no-firing became some firing, in other words, shifting to the flat part of the Beveridge curve. But what we've been getting more recently looks to be an escalation in firing. Verizon just announced it may be cutting 15% of its 100,000 strong workforce.  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.

The collapse and bankruptcy of another private credit supported firm has generated significant losses this week. But as I pointed out last week with the shuttered UBS sponsored hedge funds, it isn't necessarily the amount of money being burned. It's what each of these cockroaches reveals, and how they add to the growing mistrust about the entire private credit shadow banking network. That's the real danger which could threaten to unravel a whole lot more than a few troubled firms. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------------Get the free guide that breaks down the real economic signals behind America's shrinking consumer demand, and how to protect your wealth before the slowdown hits your income https://web.eurodollar-university.com/home-------------------------------------------------------------------Bloomberg BlackRock Faces 100% Loss on Private Loan, Adding to Credit Market Painhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-10/blackrock-eyes-100-loss-on-private-loan-amid-debate-over-marksBloomberg Why First Brands Has Sparked So Many Concerns on Wall Streethttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-10/why-first-brands-collapse-sparked-concerns-on-wall-streetBloomberg Car Loan Delinquencies Hit Record for Riskiest Borrowershttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-12/car-loan-delinquencies-hit-record-for-riskiest-borrowershttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

Colorado's economy has been flashing warning signs for a while, but is a recession really on the horizon? Today, the launch of our special report, "Silent Recession," looking at the numbers driving the state's economics. Then, the government shutdown has left many nonprofits scrambling to provide assistance for people missing their food benefits -- including one here in Colorado that focuses on sharing homemade lasagna made with love. And, do you want to help those in need of food? One local engineer has created an app for that!

Although cracks are starting to appear in various commercial real estate asset classes, prices have still not come down enough to be investible. Prices have come down, but they've come down off record highs and lenders are still conducting workouts with sponsors. If we continue to see significant job losses, and recession ensues, prices may eventually come down enough to make sense for cash-flow investors. Jeremy Roll, a full-time passive investor, left his steady corporate job in 2007 and has lived 100% off the cash flow ever since. Jeremy has been in over 250 passive investments.

Fast food chain Wendy's said it's closing hundreds more US locations than previously announced because customers can't afford to eat there. It fits with what McDonalds US President said last week about how the entire industry is fighting for contracting traffic. It sounds practically Chinese talking about oversupply of cheap hamburgers and chicken nuggets. But as we know only too well from China's economy, it isn't too much production it is the lack of demand. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------------Get the free guide that breaks down the real economic signals behind America's shrinking consumer demand, and how to protect your wealth before the slowdown hits your income https://web.eurodollar-university.com/home-------------------------------------------------------------------USA Today Wendy's to close roughly 300 stores nationwide starting in late 2025https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2025/11/07/wendys-closing-hundreds-stores-2025/87146469007/CNBC McDonald's U.S. boss puts focus on ‘value and affordability' as consumer spending splitshttps://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/06/mcdonalds-us-boss-memo-value-affordability.htmlBloomberg US Small-Business Optimism Dips to Six-Month Low on Earningshttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-11/us-small-business-optimism-slips-to-six-month-low-on-earningsBloomberg US Companies Shed Jobs in Late October, Weekly ADP Data Showhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-11/us-firms-shed-11-250-jobs-per-week-in-four-weeks-to-oct-25-adphttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

The federal government may be opening back up but the administration floating a tariff dividend is the real news here. It's yet another dose of reality showing the stock market is not that reality. Americans are struggling and the timing behind this dividend is transparently in response to worsening economic conditions.

Hosts Zach and Kevin put the sports talk (mostly) aside to dive deep into a critical area of everyday dentistry: various scenarios involving soft and hard tissue grafting and the management of periodontal recession. They discuss how to handle common cases like recession in post-ortho teens (especially on the lower anterior teeth) and the different approaches for the challenging chewing tobacco patient. Zach and Kevin share their experience with generalized recession, debating when to refer for a graft—often noting that patient concern over esthetics or sensitivity drives the decision more than the presence of the recession itself. The conversation covers treatment techniques like free gingival grafts and the status of fads like the LANAP procedure and pinhole technique. They also explore other periodontal topics, including the management of gingival overgrowth (gummy smiles), peri-implantitis complications, and their skepticism regarding the widespread use of local antimicrobial delivery systems (like Arrestin) for routine scaling and root planing cases. Tune in for a candid discussion on what's working (and what's not) in the everyday management of periodontal health in a general practice.

In this episode, Chris, Saied, and Rajeil dive head-first into the fiery mess that is America's housing market. Where even 0% mortgage rates wouldn't make homes affordable, and Buffett and Zillow are suddenly on the same side of the doomsday table. From the longest government shutdown in U.S. history to first-time homebuyers now averaging forty (because apparently adulting got delayed a decade), the guys break down why affordability has officially left the chat and how the “Zero Interest Rate Period” turned into the world's most expensive hangover.➡️ Then it gets spicy... Michael Burry is back, betting billions against AI and the stock market like it's 2008 all over again. Meanwhile, Warren Buffett quietly agrees the math no longer works, and The Higher Standard crew connect the dots between social frustration, rising socialism vibes, and a government that can't even pay its own bills. Equal parts data, sarcasm, and therapy session — this one's a masterclass in how to laugh through an economic meltdown.

The United States is on the brink of a recession, according to major multinational bank UBS. Meanwhile, America's largest bank, JPMorgan Chase, says recession risk is only at 40%. Who's right? Who's wrong? We're using a new recession indicator in this episode to reveal America's real risk of sliding into another downturn. If it feels like your dollar doesn't go as far as it used to and your salary is barely keeping up—you're not imagining it. But according to official sources, America has only been in a recession for three months since the Great Financial Crisis. That can't be right when it's getting this hard to get by. That's why, in this episode, Dave shares his new recession indicator, based on the average American's finances, to measure the financial health of real Americans, not what corporate earnings reports suggest. Looking back, the economic data doesn't fit the official narrative. And if you feel like you've been in a recession for years, you might be right. But you can still protect (and grow) your wealth while the economy falters. Are your investments keeping your real wealth afloat? In This Episode We Cover The new “recession indicator” that forecasts whether average Americans will struggle or not Recession predictions from top banks and whether we're on the precipice of a crisis Why the standard definition of a “recession” is wrong and ignores average Americans The alarming statistic that shows just how much of your spending power has been eaten away How to recession-proof your finances and invest so you can weather economic storms And So Much More!

The Decline of Democracy: Autocracy and Oligarchy on the Rise. Gaius and Germanicus discuss Michael McFaul's hypothesis that democracy is in recession and autocracy is ascendant. Germanicus concurs, blaming "Blue" (Democrats) for pursuing steps that strip the nation of its Republican character, including efforts to control media and censor, which he terms "creeping authoritarianism." He cites examples like a two-tier justice system and the pursuit of "thought crimes" (e.g., silent praying outside an abortion clinic) in the US and UK. Germanicus believes the US is heading toward a "brutal oligarchy" controlled by a ruling class, rather than a classic autocracy. Gaius asks if autocratic models, such as Chinese capitalism, are appealing to allies. Germanicus confirms that certain nations (like the expanding BRICS) view China and Russia as providing a better model for societal progress, especially given the US's poor global reputation since 2001. Furthermore, neoliberalism benefits only the very wealthy, creating devastating wealth inequality akin to the ancien régime before the French Revolution. Projecting 100 years ahead, Germanicus believes the US will likely be an "oligarchic autocracy" and an empire competing as a trans-Pacific/transatlantic block against a Eurasian block. They agree that modern technology, capable of tracking thoughts and speech, is an "enormously powerful instrument" supporting this autocratic trend. Germanicus notes that moralizing about dictators and "saving democracy" will persist, but merely as a means to keep the population passive and quiet, labeling modern censorship as highly Orwellian. They conclude they are living through a transformation from kingship to democracy, now moving toward autocracy. 80 BCE. SULLA 

CarMax sacked their CEO after preannouncing just brutal results for an industry already reeling and at the epicenter of the current ongoing breakdown in credit markets. The stock plunged 25% Thursday when management disclosed unit sales are looking to crash by 8 to 12% in the latest quarter. Relatedly, consumer confidence plunged to record and near-record lows...and it has little to do with the govt shutdown. Eurodollar University's conversation w/Steve Van Metre---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

The University of Michigan's November consumer sentiment survey, and October private sector job cuts tracked by outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas, have raised concerns the US economy may be entering a recession. But data from ADP, state-level initial jobless claims, and the Chicago Fed's unemployment estimate, all paint a picture of a healthy economy. A closer look at the Challenger data, however, suggests the reason for job cuts is Artificial Intelligence. While AI might be able to displace humans in technology companies, it is unlikely to replace workers in many other sectors anytime soon. Still, it is clear labour is a primary worry in the market.

UBS is reportedly closing down not one but two hedge funds, in a more that raises a lot of questions but also some very uncomfortable parallels to 2007. One of those funds is exposed to First Brands, so understandable. The other...isn't. And that raises the prospect of the R-word; in this case, that does not stand for recession, rather its uglier monetary twin. Bloomberg UBS Winds Down O'Connor Funds in Sign of First Brands Strainhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-06/ubs-to-wind-down-o-connor-funds-with-first-brands-exposureNYT $3.2 Billion Move by Bear Stearns to Rescue Fundhttps://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/23/business/23bond.htmlhttps://eurodollar.university

After Tuesday's election results, everyone seems to have gotten the message that affordability is king. Democrats, Republicans, and even President Donald Trump have been talking about the costs of various things, like healthcare, groceries, and Thanksgiving dinner ever since. But for a lot of Americans, making ends meet has been hard for a while. To talk more about the disconnect between what the Trump administration is saying about the economy and how Americans are feeling, we spoke with Stacy Vanek Smith. She's a reporter for Bloomberg Businessweek and co-host of the Bloomberg podcast, Everybody's Business.And in headlines, the Federal Aviation Administration cancels flights across the U.S. reportedly to ease the strain on air traffic controllers during the longest ever government shutdown, California Democratic Representative Nancy Pelosi announces her retirement after nearly 40 years in Congress, and the jury in the case of the man who slung twelve inches of vigilante justice at a federal officer has reached its verdict.Show Notes: Check out Stacey's podcast – https://tinyurl.com/y2zannt6Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

PREVIEW. AI, Corporate Staffing Reduction, and Consumer Liquidity Issues Threatening a Recession. Chris Riegel discusses how while AI contributes to corporate staff reduction (e.g., IBM), financial results from quick service restaurants like Chipotle indicate consumer challenges. Specifically, younger consumers are financially strained, leading to negative results and consumers trading down. This problem with consumer liquidity represents early signs of what could become a nasty recession, though its progression is unknown. Retry

Economic Policy and China Trade. Elizabeth Peek discusses the US economy, where Treasury Secretary Bessent asserts that housing is in recession due to high Federal Reserve rates. Peek argues that lower rates are needed to "unstick" the housing market. The Fed, led by Jay Powell, is fixated on inflation, though Peek questions his rationale regarding tariffs and labor demand. The conversation also covers the Trump-Xi meeting, which was anticlimactic, postponing confrontation for a year. Key concessions included China relenting on rare earth exports and American soybean boycotts. FIVE POINTS
