Everyone believes the energy shock is about oil. It isn't. The most important price in energy today isn't really the price of crude. It is the difference between crude oil and the fuel made from it—a number known as the crack spread.And for diesel, that spread has absolutely exploded to record highs.

J-Hole jolted the markets, only to have Warsh's J-Hole narrative jolted right back with JOLTS. Caught in between are interest rates which nobody seems to have a handle on even though the answers are right there in Treasury Secretary Bessent's words and the latest European inflation.

Producer and guest host Mel Figueroa speaks with economist Michael Roberts about the teetering house of cards that is the US and global economy, and how it is all connected to the Iran war and more: Scott Bessent, bond markets, the crisis in private credit, the AI bubble, de-dollarization, and inflation. Is a recession or a depression imminent? The media financial and economic discourse is wildly different from what we experience in our day-to-day struggles; we unpack why that is, and how anxiety at the top of this K-shaped economy will still have real consequences for the US working class. Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.

What's up, Amigos?! I'm glad you're still here. Seriously. I was worried. Because if you listened to the media, this weekend was supposed to be the one that finally got us. You know the drill. Trump did something horrible, therefore America was doomed. Trump did something good, therefore America was also doomed. Trump breathed. DOOMED. But somehow, against all odds, you people survived. You survived Trump pulling us out of the global climate-change farce. The planet was supposed to burst into flames by Tuesday. Yet here you are. Still breathing. You survived Trump's reductions in violent crime. I know. Terrifying. Fewer people getting robbed and murdered. What kind of monster would do that? Then there's the illegal immigration apocalypse. Thankfully, no NEW illegals were able to steal your money, while many are actually leaving the country. And now some of them can't bank here. They can't wire money here. They can't simply stroll across the border, establish themselves, and send your money back home. How oppressive! And somehow, despite all those terrifying Trump trade wars, you're still alive. You haven't been forced to sell your house to buy a dozen eggs. In fact, you may have noticed that the economic apocalypse keeps getting postponed. But the big one... Iran. The media assured us Trump was going to get us all killed. World War III! Nuclear war! Mushroom clouds! Your children would be vaporized! And yet... You didn't get droned by Iran. Congratulations! Apparently surviving the Trump presidency is now an extreme sport. And that brings me to all you horrible people listening right now. Yes, you. You racist... Homophobic... Xenophobic... Bible-thumping... America-loving... Trump-supporting... deplorables. You people are amazing. The Left has spent years predicting your extinction. The media has declared Trump supporters morally diseased, politically doomed, economically suicidal and apparently one tweet away from civilization collapsing. And yet you just keep showing up. Every morning. Coffee in hand. American flag somewhere nearby. Voting for Trump. Driving the people who hate you absolutely insane. You are like cockroaches to the Left. They've tried everything. Impeachment. Indictments. Investigations. Media hysteria. Russia. Ukraine. January 6. The economy. The climate. War. Recession. Eggs. And every time they scream: "THIS IS IT! TRUMP HAS FINALLY DESTROYED AMERICA!" Kevin Jackson has been called, the "white-collar" Joe Rogan. Given their similar backgrounds in TV, comedy, and martial arts, it's easy to see why people enjoy Kevin's show so much. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Japan just spent $100 billion rescuing the yen. Not over several years. Not during some historic financial crisis. In less than one month. This wasn't just Japan acting alone, either.

Founder of Phinance Technologies and global economic analyst Ed Dowd rejoins the Economic Review to break down the perfect storm forming across the U.S. economy.Dowd explains the forces creating powerful recessionary headwinds and why he sees troubling parallels to the conditions surrounding 2008. He argues that roughly 80% of the country is already experiencing a recession, while the top 20% remains largely insulated from the economic pressures affecting everyone else. We also discuss the extraordinary concentration of investment flowing into artificial intelligence. Dowd estimates that approximately 70% of investment capital is currently being directed toward the AI sector, creating an investment boom that he believes has helped paper over the underlying recession already being felt throughout much of the country. We also discuss what you should do to prepare financially.Follow Ed Dowd on X at or on Substack at @DowdEdward and on Substack at substack.com/@eddowdbeyondthenarrativeSee exclusives and Webinar replays and more at SarahWestall.Substack.com

Download the “65 Investment Terms You MUST Know to Reach Your Financial Goals” for FREE by going to https://TodaysMarketExplained.com/ In this episode of Today's Market Explained, Brian Kasal and Chris Reardon analyze the key drivers behind current market movements across asset classes, sector performance, and broader economic indicators. From energy's massive 43.71% year-to-date surge to gold hitting historic record highs above $4,400, they explore where market strength lies, how inflation is weighing heavily on consumer sentiment, and what to expect from upcoming Fed policy decisions.
Is the U.S. economy really headed for recession? Franklin Templeton's Chris Galipeau argues the bearish narrative is missing what matters most: a resilient consumer, improving credit trends, strong corporate earnings, and a labor market that remains supportive. He also pushes back on fears that AI is about to destroy jobs, explains why investors may be too focused on Fed headlines and geopolitical noise, and makes the case that corporate profitability matters far more for markets over time. With investors focused on Kevin Warsh, interest rates, inflation, and the economic outlook, Galipeau offers a sharply different view of what the data is actually saying about the U.S. economy and stock market.
The economy is strong, prices are still too high, and the job market is sending mixed signals. The Federal Reserve is navigating all of it while fending off the most overt political pressure in its modern history. Austan Goolsbee, President of the Chicago Fed, joins Rapid Response ahead of the Central Bank's highly-watched meeting in Jackson Hole, to give his most candid read on what's actually going on. He explains why tariffs, war in the Middle East, and six years above the 2% inflation target make this the most dangerous inflation environment he's seen, what Kevin Warsh's new leadership means for how the Fed operates, and why he's a "grim optimist" on AI even as the hype keeps outrunning the results.

What is happening inside Mark Walter's financial empire - which until recently included the LA Lakers - has the potential to blow the lid off the entire private credit story - if not the whole debt cycle. A billion-dollar loan connected to Guggenheim Investments is trading at roughly 73 cents on the dollar, a price normally associated with serious distress. And that's only where this crazy story begins.

Recessions, trade wars, labor unrest — in moments of societal crisis in the United States, Asian-Americans have been perennially targeted, from the destruction of Chinatowns by white mobs, to the mass internment of Japanese-Americans during WW2, to attacks against Asians during Covid. Historian Scott Kurashige reflects on more than 175 years of anti-Asian violence and its connection to U.S. empire abroad and a divided working class at home. (Encore presentation.)

Ray Dalio says the United States is approaching a debt crisis, or maybe is already in one. The government knows UST demand is becoming a problem, so the argument goes, and it is quietly trying to control the bond market with buybacks before the situation gets out of control.But what you probably don't know is that there are ways to test Ray Dalio's warning.

Jonathan Marcus reports American universities are suffering from declining public trust, soaring tuition costs, and a looming demographic drop in enrollment tracing back to the 2008 recession. Schools that became financially dependent on high-paying international students face severe budget cuts and program closures as foreign enrollment drops. This financial squeeze has forced a shift, prompting the rapid rise of three-year "applied bachelor's degrees" designed to save students time and money. Additionally, domestic universities face a STEM crisis fueled by weak K-12 math performance, leaving advanced research programs vulnerable as China's PhD output rapidly outpaces the United States.

App fatigue is causing more and more singles to break up with online dating. Instead of swiping, more and more people are turning to matchmakers and other ways to find love IRL. Often spending thousands of dollars in the process. Matchmaking is having a moment. Could it solve what some are calling the 'relationship recession' and help the economy as well?

What is a recession, and are we in one now? Today I'm flying solo to talk about the US economy, its current state, and what to expect during the second half of the year. A recession is generally characterized by negative gross domestic product (GDP), rising unemployment, falling retail prices, and contracting measures of income and manufacturing lasting months or years. Recessions are often classified as two consecutive quarters of plummeting GDP growth, which the US economy is currently experiencing. GDP fell at an annual rate of 0.9% in the second quarter this year, following the last quarter's decline of 1.6%. But before we talk about these figures, let's take a step back and look at the four to five consecutive quarters with the most significant revenue growth in the last 15 years. US real GDP rose at an annual rate of 6.9% in the fourth quarter of 2021, following a 2.3% growth in the third quarter, a 6.7% pace in the second quarter, and a 6.3% increase during the first quarter of the same year. Despite the two recent negative quarters, we need to look at the numbers and what they represent. Moreover, a negative GDP growth rate does not necessarily connote that the economy is entering a recession. In this episode, you will learn about the US economy, GDP, recession, and why running a country is similar to running a business. Here are some of the things I get into: The real GDP growth in the US for the first two quarters of 2022. The definition of recession. How economists determine whether the economy is in a recession. Why we need to look at the data and consider the previous quarters. Why a negative GDP does not indicate a recession.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Henrik Zeberg to the show. Henrik Zeberg is Head Macro Economist at Swissblock. Zeberg believes the equity rally is entering its final phase, with a major market top likely within the next quarter. He warns this will not be an ordinary correction but a significant downturn, driven by a weakening US economy that many market participants have yet to recognize. The consumer is in a particularly fragile state, with depleted savings, rising credit card delinquencies, and housing affordability at crisis levels, all pointing to an imminent economic rollover. Zeberg explains that the current cycle mirrors past business cycles, where high rates and inflation eventually stall growth. However, this time the situation is exacerbated by the massive debt accumulation enabled by years of quantitative easing and artificially suppressed rates. The unwinding of these distortions will be severe, combining elements of both the 2000 tech bust and the 2008 financial crisis, but likely worse due to opaque private credit risks and the psychological impact of recent inflation on consumer behavior. Gold is expected to face headwinds initially as a liquidity crunch and a strengthening US dollar cause a pullback, potentially to $3,100 or lower. However, once the Federal Reserve is forced to intervene aggressively with yield suppression, gold will enter a powerful rally, potentially rising fivefold in a few years and outperforming equities dramatically. Zeberg sees this as a buying opportunity for physical gold, recommending dollar-cost averaging. Silver and gold miners will also benefit, though they may suffer during the initial downturn. Zeberg advises listeners to prepare for a significant stock market decline, suggesting that taking profits now and developing a contingency plan is prudent. While the US dollar may be the best near-term safe haven, precious metals and commodities will be the ultimate beneficiaries when the Fed steps in for real. He encourages following his work through Swissblock's services and his Substack for ongoing analysis.

Liz Peek discusses the resilience of the American economy, noting that high-end consumer spending remains strong despite recession fears. Small businesses are reportedly "humming," with hiring and profitability reaching their highest levels since 2026. This economic momentum is increasingly driven by a massive boom in AI development, which has created an exponential demand for long-term capital. However, this appetite for money is pressuring the bond market, leading to higher mortgage rates that hinder the housing industry. Peek highlights a growing divide between red and blue states, where the former are more likely to embrace AI investment while the latter resist it. She also addresses the influence of Hasan Piker, a radical Twitch streamer who mobilizes young men for Democratic candidates like Abdul El-Sayed. Despite concerns about AI-related job losses, Peek argues it is a vital tool for productivity and medical advancement. (1)
TABLE OF CONTENTS, JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 8-18-2026Liz Peek discusses the resilience of the American economy, noting that high-end consumer spending remains strong despite recession fears. Small businesses are reportedly "humming," with hiring and profitability reaching their highest levels since 2026. This economic momentum is increasingly driven by a massive boom in AI development, which has created an exponential demand for long-term capital. However, this appetite for money is pressuring the bond market, leading to higher mortgage rates that hinder the housing industry. Peek highlights a growing divide between red and blue states, where the former are more likely to embrace AI investment while the latter resist it. She also addresses the influence of Hasan Piker, a radical Twitch streamer who mobilizes young men for Democratic candidates like Abdul El-Sayed. Despite concerns about AI-related job losses, Peek argues it is a vital tool for productivity and medical advancement. (1)Jonathan Schanzer examines the fractured state of Hamas, noting the group currently controls only 30% of Gaza while facing internal discord over potential disarmament. International negotiators are discussing a "disarm first" condition, which Hamas leadership currently rejects, demanding an Israeli withdrawal instead—a term Schanzer deems unacceptable to any Israeli leader. The conversation turns to Iran, where Donald Trump has threatened to bomb Omandue to its perceived collaboration with the Iranian regime. Despite its "Switzerland of the Middle East" reputation, Oman hosts Houthi and IRGC headquarters, facilitating intelligence and weapon transfers. Schanzer warns that Iran is in "war mode," coordinating closely with its proxy network to prepare for future violence. He also details the rapid rearmament of the Syrian military under Turkish and Russian influence, which concerns Israel. Finally, a new Sunni alliance between Pakistan, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia seeks to diminish Iranian Shiite power. (2)Gregory Copley analyzes China's recent ICBM test in the South China Sea, interpreting it as "Wolf Warrior diplomacy" designed to signal naval reach to the US and regional neighbors. Australia is countering this threat through the AUKUSand Five Eyes alliances, though Copley notes a lack of cohesion between current heads of government. He highlights Canada's significant pivot under Mark Carney toward independent defense spending, reaching 5% of GDP to secure the Northwest Passage and Arctic interests. Regarding Yemen, Copley argues the Houthis represent the legitimate military weight of North Yemen, while the internationally recognized government is merely a "Saudi puppet." He suggests Western diplomacy should deal directly with the Houthis rather than adhering to Saudi preferences. Additionally, Copley provides a historical defense of Charles I, arguing his execution was an illegal abrogation of the social contract. He maintains that constitutional monarchies remain a viable and flourishing modern system. (3)Mary Kissel discusses the strained US-South Korea alliance, where disagreements over military funding have prompted Seoul to seek independent nuclear-powered submarine capabilities. She characterizes North Korea as a reckless actor that has committed tens of thousands of combat troops and ballistic missiles to aid the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Kissel critiques the "transactional nature" of current diplomacy, noting that contradictory signals toward Kim Jong-unundermine national security strategies. Regarding Oman, she defends the nation as a moderate partner vital for counterterrorism and the release of detained Americans, viewing Trump's threats to bomb the country as an expression of frustration over Iran. Kissel also highlights political successes in South America, where center-right victories in Colombia and Chile represent a return to capitalist principles and closer ties with the US. She concludes by noting that environmental factors like El Niño will soon challenge regional stability in Brazil. (4)Joseph Sternberg addresses the looming "year of doom" in 2032, when the Social Security trust fund is projected to run out. Without reform, benefits could be slashed by 22% to match current payroll tax revenues, creating a massive political crisis. Sternberg explores potential remedies such as means testing for high-earners like Elon Musk or raising the payroll tax cap, though he warns these could impact broader economic growth. He highlights the generational fairness issue of asking younger workers to fund benefits that baby boomers were unprepared to pay for themselves. The discussion also covers the rise of Hasan Piker, a popular Twitch streamer who broadcasts far-left economic views to a younger audience. While Piker is photogenic and compelling, Sternberg describes him as a "popularizer" rather than a deep thinker. Piker's pugnacious approach serves as a bellwether for whether radical progressive ideas can succeed in general elections. (5)Thaddeus McCotter analyzes the recent Michigan Democratic primary, where Dr. Abdul El-Sayed narrowly defeated the establishment candidate, Haley Stevens. El-Sayed, an "anti-establishment" fighter endorsed by Bernie Sanders, capitalized on unhappiness within the Democratic base, particularly in counties with large young populations like Washtenaw and Kent. While El-Sayed distances himself from the "Socialist" label, he supports extensive economic regulation and holds anti-Israel sentiments popular in Ann Arbor. McCotter notes that the Democratic establishment is now rallying around El-Sayed to preserve their Senate majority, hoping a "common enemy" in Donald Trump will bridge internal divides. Republican candidate Mike Rogers, a former Intelligence Committee chair, plans to counter El-Sayed by focusing on manufacturing, border security, and the risks of "Medicare for All" to seniors. McCotter warns that Trump's messaging on the "Iran war" and rising inflation remains a significant hurdle for Republican candidates in the general election. (6)Bob Zimmerman reports on the successful recovery of a SpaceX Starship near Christmas Island, which remained seaworthy for 24 days after a vertical splashdown in the Indian Ocean. This achievement, along with SpaceX's record-breaking launch frequency, signals a "renaissance to American ingenuity." Zimmerman notes that Elon Musk's political involvement was a defensive reaction to the Biden administration's regulatory pressure on his companies. In the Ukraineconflict, Ukrainian missiles successfully targeted a Russian factory producing Soyuz-2 rockets, aiming to cripple Russia's military satellite and drone communication capabilities. Regarding spaceport expansion, Zimmerman details SpaceX's potential new site in Louisiana, which offers hundreds of square miles for operations. He also critiques government-funded spaceports, like those in Australia or New Mexico, which often fail because they lack dedicated rocket companies as customers. Finally, research on mice aboard the International Space Station suggests that weightlessness does not fundamentally damage the heart's contracting mechanisms. (7)Two corrections applied, pending your confirmation: Hasan Piker (transcribed as "Hassan," segments 1 and 5 — the Twitch streamer spells it with one s) and Washtenaw County (transcribed as "Washington," segment 6 — Ann Arbor's county, which fits the context of young Democratic voters; flag me if the audio genuinely said Washington).
The yield on the 30-year U.S. Treasury bond just reached its highest level since 2007. And to a lot of people, this means everything - from inflation to fiscal deficits. There's just one problem.The 30-year bond is not actually doing what everyone says it is.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis------------------------------------------------Eurodollar University Live 2October 9-12, West Palm Beach, Florida40 seats exist.

281: What actually works in land investing when the market slows down?(Show Notes: REtipster.com/281)In this episode, I sit down with two of my good friends: Drew Haney of Rooster Capital and Mike Baucom, my business partner at Stride CRM. We had no formal agenda, but the conversation quickly turned into a candid look at the current land market, the strategies that still work, and what separates the land investors who survive from those who quit.Drew shares insights from analyzing approximately 850 funded land deals. One of the biggest conclusions was surprisingly simple: boring, smaller land flips often produce the strongest returns. While the industry constantly promotes new real estate strategies—subdivides, entitlements, distressed property, and other value-add plays—some of the most successful land investors continue using the same basic systems they have refined for yearsWe also discuss why the land market no longer feels like the COVID-era boom, whether another real estate crash could be coming, and why transaction volume may matter more than rising land prices.Mike, Drew, and I also get honest about entrepreneur mindset, inconsistent cash flow, failed marketing campaigns, diversification, shiny object syndrome, loneliness, AI, and the importance of building real relationships with other business owners.This conversation is about more than land flipping. It is about staying in the game, improving your systems, and learning to appreciate the difficult seasons of entrepreneurship.

The recession everyone feared still hasn't arrived — and the stock market keeps defying the bears. Ed Yardeni explains why he believes the U.S. economy remains resilient, why consumer spending and corporate earnings could keep the bull market moving higher, and why pessimistic investors may be missing what's happening right in front of them.

Blaming Amazon's Prime Day, everyone is trying to work around yet another "unexpected" negative number. Following an "unexpected" drop in July payrolls, the Census Bureau now reports an "unexpected" drop in retail sales alongside an "unexpected" setback in consumer confidence and, yes, an "unexpected" decline in gasoline usage during peak driving season. None of this is unexpected, just the work of more mini-cycles.

Record decline in Chinese bank loan flows is only where this starts. It's what China's government did in response in announcing a major financial crackdown that really matters. Combined with the latest macro data, it is all leading to another real world example exposing the fallacy of interest rates.

There is something going on with the long bond, that's for sure, but what is it really? The answer is surprisingly simple, and it also explains why the last 30-year Treasury auction held this week was said to have been a mess. That was more about what everyone says than what's happening and why.

Japan and the United States just launched one of the most dramatic currency interventions in decades. But less than two weeks later, half the yen's gains have already disappeared. The currency is already back around 159 to the dollar, once again threatening the psychologically important 160 level.

Every year, Len Penzo prices out the exact same ten brown-bag sandwiches, using the exact same methodology, at the exact same time of year, and turns it into one of the most oddly reliable inflation trackers around. This year the numbers are ugly: double-digit jumps across the board, an 80% spike in one ingredient alone, and a genuinely surprising twist involving the humble bologna sandwich that Len says has quietly tracked economic downturns for nearly two decades. Then, a headline that should make every family pause: how one daughter used a single signed document to quietly drain nearly a million dollars from her own father.What You'll Walk Away WithWhich sandwich ingredient jumped a jaw-dropping 80% this year, and why it's not the one you'd expectThe strange, long-running correlation between bologna sales and economic recessionsSimple substitutions, buying whole meats and block cheese instead of pre-sliced, that can meaningfully cut your grocery billWhy "nominally the highest price ever" doesn't always mean "the most expensive it's ever really been," once you adjust for inflationHow a single signed power of attorney document led to nearly $1 million disappearing from a vulnerable parent's accountsThe real difference between what your estate plan says and what your actual account beneficiary designations say, and why that gap can undo your entire planA billionaire's surprisingly simple family money ritual that keeps inheritance conflicts from tearing families apartWhy This Matters NowGrocery prices are one of those slow, quiet costs that are easy to underestimate until you actually look at the numbers side by side. At the same time, the legal documents meant to protect aging family members, like power of attorney, only work as intended when there's real transparency and real trust behind them. Both stories point to the same underlying idea: the clearest financial protection usually isn't a clever trick, it's paying close attention to the details that are easy to assume are already handled.From the BasementA story about a backyard grill fire escalates into a genuinely useful (and slightly panicked) lesson on fire extinguisher use, corrosive foam and all, proving once again that the best financial lessons in the basement don't always come from a spreadsheet.Resources MentionedLenPenzo.com — Len Penzo's full 18-year sandwich survey and price historyHow Kenn Ricci Runs Family Wealth Meetings — the Wall Street Journal piece on transparent family net worth meetings, referenced in the discussionStacking Benjamins Field Kit — the all-in-one budgeting and financial tracking toolSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Dr. Justin Garcia is the Executive Director of the Kinsey Institute at Indiana University, chief scientific advisor to Match, and the author of the new book The Intimate Animal. He joins Em and Cass for a wide-ranging conversation on why modern intimacy feels so hard, and why he's optimistic about it anyway. They get into the intimacy crisis (why we can be surrounded by people and still feel lonely), the "all-or-nothing" marriage model that's crushing modern relationships, the real story behind the sex recession and why declining frequency might not be a bad thing, the biology of monogamy versus sexual novelty (and the three ways couples navigate that tension), why 80% of marriages actually got stronger during the pandemic, and how dating apps are breaking our brains by tricking us into thinking every person is disposable. Plus the stat that 70% of people become deeply attracted to someone they didn't initially think they would, why the "work on yourself first" culture might be keeping you single, and the line Justin's built his relationship advice around: the grass is greener where you water it.
