Jeremy breaks down how to invest as a defensive investor in 2024 and beyond based on his experience before and during the 2008 recession and the COVID-19 pandemic.  He discusses where to invest during a recession (which is likely coming, he says — he explains why), the key indicator he's following to determine whether or not we're headed for a recession, and why he's currently sitting on the sidelines to see how things play out economically. He also discusses the philosophy behind doing nothing, what he's looking for to determine when it's time for him to jump back in, and why — as a cash flow investor — he avoids negative leverage at absolutely all costs.

Nick Bunker from Indeed joined the podcast to break down July's surprisingly weak employment report. The team put forward their favorite interjections before breaking down the report into causes for concern, potential measurement issues and (a few) reasons for cautious optimism. The discussion turned to the “Sahm Rule” as the group pondered whether the recent rise in the unemployment rate is signaling a recession.  Mark and Marisa both claimed victory in the Statistics Game before the podcast ended with the team putting forward their current recession probabilities. (4:00) July Employment Report  (22:58) Labor Market Issues(51:00) Stats Game(1:02:50) Recession RisksToday's Guest: Nick Bunker, Director of North American Economic Research at IndeedFollow Nick Bunker: @Nick_BunkerHosts: Mark Zandi – Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, Cris deRitis – Deputy Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, and Marisa DiNatale – Senior Director - Head of Global Forecasting, Moody's AnalyticsFollow Mark Zandi on 'X' @MarkZandi, Cris deRitis on LinkedIn, and Marisa DiNatale on LinkedIn
