 Thousands of Oregonians are dealing with having to pay back some unemployment benefits the state now says they shouldn't have received. The Oregon Law Center filed a lawsuit in 2022 arguing that the Oregon Employment Department is violating the due process clause of the constitution. The case is ongoing and represents the confusion around paying back benefits. Meanwhile the agency says it was overwhelmed by requests during the pandemic, and it’s possible that more than $5.5 million could be waived in overpaid benefits. Dianne Lugo is a reporter for the Statesman Journal and has covered these issues. She joins us with more on her reporting.

In this episode of our Week Ahead podcast series, we look at the main themes driving global markets over the coming week. In the US (01:58), we have the Fed Beige Book, core PCE inflation data, jobless claims and the November manufacturing ISM report. In Europe (06:24), the highlight will be flash inflation data for the euro area, UK lending data and euro area unemployment.

Jonathan and Rory talk though the importance the economic calendar for all traders. A lot of traders believe that certain data doesn't move the markets enough and that they should ignore it. But using this information to your advantage can give you a trading edge.The economic Calendar provides real-time updates on economic news and trends, allowing individuals to make more informed investment decisions.This information gives you a macro outlook, allowing you to a receive an insight into key data such as GDP, Inflation, Unemployment, international relations & political changes.During the episode, Rory & Jonathan share how they use the data not just for volatility trading but to confirm or deny pre-existing biases we may have. For example, if you think the economy is struggling and the PMI report is growing each time, the market might not move but maybe you should change your bias? It's about using the data in your favour to add further confirmations which will in turn help your consistency.The Blokes then discuss the PCE index, which is released next week, what it means and the importance of it to traders. Rory mentions how the PCE is the Fed's preferred method to gauge inflation along with describing exactly how it's calculated.If you really want to improve your trading, then you need to use all the resources at your disposal to build a bias whether that bullish or bearish.Listen now to find out more!

AP correspondent Jackie Quinn reports on Economy Sour Sentiment

In this insightful interview, financial expert David Wright of Wright Financial Group and author of "Bonfires of the Sanities," delves into the latest U.S. initial jobless claims, which have slightly exceeded forecasts at 217K, compared to the predicted 215K and the previous 220K. Wright highlights the significance of these figures in the context of the current high-interest-rate economy, warning of their potential impact on overall economic conditions as unemployment is on the rise. Further, Wright discusses the Federal Reserve's projection of the unemployment rate reaching 4.5% by the end of the year, underscoring the deviation from their target rate of 5% aimed at maintaining a 2% inflation rate. He reminds viewers of the Fed's primary objectives: ensuring steady employment and price stability, rather than supporting the stock market. Concluding the interview, Wright provides his perspective on the stock market's future, predicting a range-bound situation marked by volatility, with significant fluctuations expected over the next 24 months. This insightful discussion offers valuable insights for those looking to understand and navigate the complexities of the current economic landscape.

Dante joins the podcast to break down the October employment report. With job growth moderating and the unemployment rate edging higher, the Fed's fight against inflation should get a little bit easier. The team also takes a few listener questions about the definition of the unemployment rate and what impact softening rents will have on single-family housing.  Follow Mark Zandi @MarkZandi, Cris deRitis @MiddleWayEcon, and Marisa DiNatale on LinkedIn for additional insight.

In this episode, Scott discusses the inverse relationship between jobs & the stock market.

#470: The economy is booming. GDP grew 4.9 percent last quarter, the fastest rate of growth since 2021. Consumer spending jumped 4 percent. Unemployment is holding steady at 3.8 percent, historically low. The U.S. added net new jobs for the 34th consecutive month. And yet – people are worried. Online discussion around layoffs at its highest point since July 2020. High-profile headlines about major staffing cuts – most recently from Schwab, which is dismissing 2,000 employees – fuel these fears.  Why is there such a disconnect between sentiment, which is pessimistic, and economic data, which is robust? We explore that qu estion in today's episode. We also discuss the controversial Credit Card Competition Act, which if passed might eliminate credit card rewards like airline miles and cashback. We talk about Mint, the budgeting app with 3.6 million users, announcing that it's shutting down. We also share details about the student loan repayment debacle. And we describe a landmark court ruling for $1.8 billion – yes, with a B – against the National Association of Realtors and several real estate brokerages, a verdict that may revolutionize the business model of how homes are bought and sold.

Initial jobless claims dropped last week, according to the Labor Department, but continuing claims ticked up. That could mean companies are hanging on to employees, but aren’t hiring new ones, an economist told us. We’ll talk about that at the top of the show. Later, Black and Hispanic household wealth grew faster than other households from 2019 to 2022. But that growth is a bit of an illusion. In this episode, two data stories with lots of nuance. Plus, the U.S.-to-Mexico gun pipeline and revenge spending.

When someone says "the economy is doing well"—what does that even mean? Like, for workers, for employers, for the country as a whole? According to what calculation? How do you put a number on it?The world of economics is filled with all sorts of "measuring sticks." GDP. Inflation. Unemployment. Consumer sentiment. Over time, all kinds of government agencies, universities and private companies have come up with different ways to measure facets of the economy.
