Podcasts about wage growth

In this compelling episode of The Andrew Parker Show, Andrew delivers a straight-shooting deep dive into tariff policy—what it is, why it matters, and how it's reshaping the global economy. With clarity and conviction, Andrew breaks down the Trump administration's bold use of tariffs as a tool for fair trade and economic leverage. He explores the ripple effects on inflation, wage growth, and manufacturing, and addresses the long-standing import-export imbalance that has disadvantaged American workers.Andrew makes the case for fair trade as a prerequisite for free trade, tackles criticisms from both sides of the political aisle, and shares personal insight from his time working under former Congressman Bill Frenzel—a pioneer in U.S. trade policy. Whether you're new to economic policy or a seasoned political observer, this episode gives you the tariff tutorial you didn't know you needed.

The latest U.S. jobs report was stronger than expected, especially given the generally economic uncertainty often echoed by media reports. While there are a few caveats to the report, the positive tone should not have been too surprising given the recent performance for multifamily. U.S. annual effective rent growth was 0.9% for the latest week, but many markets and submarkets have returned to growth rates of at least 3.0%. Annual wage growth was 3.8% in April, which should help rent growth normalize as supply and demand become balanced in more locations...Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

Economic Insights and Market Movements: A Deep Dive In this episode of Dividend Cafe, recorded on Thursday, January 30th, Brian Szytel discusses the day's positive market movements with the Dow up 168 points, Nasdaq slightly up, and S&P slightly up in percentage terms. He delves into the mixed yet ultimately positive release of fourth-quarter GDP data, highlighting a surge in consumption by 4.2%. Szytel attributes this to increased disposable income and wage growth, along with a decline in savings rate. Additionally, he addresses the Jevons Paradox and its implications for energy efficiency and consumption, using Microsoft's recent experience with AI technology as an example. He concludes with thoughts on the importance of competition and the potential future of AI and natural gas as significant energy sources. 00:00 Introduction and Market Overview 00:21 Economic Data Insights 00:51 Consumer Spending Trends 01:25 Wage Growth and Disposable Income 02:11 The Jevin Paradox Explained 02:45 AI and Market Competition 03:43 Energy and Technological Efficiency 04:32 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Links mentioned in this episode: DividendCafe.com TheBahnsenGroup.com

Earnings growth has shown modest gains for seven months, according to the Paychex Small Business Employment Watch, but the annualized 3.16% gain hovers right around inflation. Gene Marks explains what this could mean to businesses and employees. Business sale prices are up 25%, including a 17% jump in the service industry. Why? Millennials are buying rather than starting, but mainly many older owners are looking for an exit. Then there are those individuals not buying at all but, instead, are shoplifting out of necessity. What might this mean to a small business in terms of cost. Listen to the podcast.

This week on The Dismal Science, we examine the latest economic data releases, including wage growth figures, consumer and business sentiment surveys, and the AICD's Director Sentiment Index. The Wage Price Index showed annual growth slowing to 3.5%, a welcome development for the RBA in its fight against inflation. But with productivity growth stalling, will this be enough to see interest rate cuts in the near future? Consumer sentiment surged in November, reaching its highest level since the first half of 2022, fuelled by optimism about the interest rate outlook and a strong labor market. However, this optimism was tempered by the results of the US election, with sentiment declining sharply following the outcome. Businesses also reported improved confidence in October, but the AICD's survey of directors painted a much bleaker picture, with concerns about inflation, interest rates, and a looming recession weighing heavily on sentiment. Will the recent positive economic data prove to be a fleeting reprieve, or are we finally turning a corner?

Their discussion highlights the importance of full employment and wage growth for the Fed.

Matt and Marisa join Mark, who called in from an undisclosed location, to discuss this week's CPI report and FOMC meeting on interest rates. They all agree that the CPI numbers were unambiguously positive and that the Fed will begin to cut interest rates this fall. They play the statistics game, made more difficult by the dearth of economic releases so far this week, and take a few listener questions related to inflation/deflation, OER, and the Fed.

The May jobs report reveals strong hiring and wage growth, particularly in sectors like healthcare and government. Despite concerns about a potential rate cut by the Fed, the report indicates a stable economic environment with growing demand for tech talent, especially in AI-related and data science roles. This suggests a need for IT service firms to invest in upskilling their workforce to meet market demands.Service Leadership's annual IT Solution Provider Industry Profitability Report highlights record growth rates for technology service providers for the fourth consecutive year. The report emphasizes the importance of adopting innovative technologies and improving business processes to sustain growth and profitability. Notably, there is a correlation between high customer satisfaction and profitability, with private equity-owned MSPs showing higher net promoter scores but non-PE providers performing better in certain financial metrics.The episode also delves into the state of venture investing, noting a surge in AI-related deals but an overall decline in venture capital funding. The software-as-a-service sector is particularly affected, with enterprise customers cutting costs. The discussion touches on the longer recovery period, challenges faced by emerging managers, and the limited number of IPOs in the current market. This data-driven insight suggests a shift towards AI-driven investments and the need for providers to adapt to changing market dynamics.Lastly, the episode explores the speculation surrounding ConnectWise's future, with rumors of a potential sale or IPO circulating. While ConnectWise's platform play with Asio is highlighted, the possibility of the company remaining private is also considered. The discussion points to a potential partnership between ConnectWise and N-Able, given their respective strategies and market positions. The evolving landscape of tech IPOs and alternative ways for investors to extract value indicate a shifting trend in the industry's financial strategies. Four things to know today00:00 May Jobs Report Shows Strong Hiring, Wage Growth, and Sector Gains03:51 Service Leadership Data Shows Record Growth and Profitability for Fourth Consecutive Year05:51 AI Investment Surge Highlights Shift in Venture Capital Priorities06:41 ConnectWise's Future: Public, Private, or Platform Play? Supported by: https://TrinityCyber.com/msp4/ All our Sponsors:   https://businessof.tech/sponsors/  Looking for a link from the stories?

Tom Bodrovics welcomes back Bob Elliott, Co-Founder, CEO, and CIO of Unlimited Funds, who shares his insights on how to evaluate skills from luck in investment outcomes. The discussion also touched upon the current state of inflation in developed countries like Europe, the UK, and the US. Despite recent supply shocks causing higher price growth, wages have matched or surpassed it, resulting in elevated rates exceeding central bank targets. Elliott also addressed the concerns of central bankers regarding debt and income dynamics, mentioning the risks of negative reinforcing cycles and comparing credit-driven economic expansions to sustainable income-driven ones. The speakers discussed the relationship between government deficits and economic growth, debating whether high levels lead to significant stimulus or a large debt burden. Regarding labor markets, Bob addressed the rising costs of inflation and the impact on reshoring production in the US. The speakers touched upon de-globalization, parallel supply chains, and shipping costs as causes for price increases and disruptions. The Fed's current monetary policy stance was discussed, with potential future actions debated due to low unemployment and while inflation is still above target. Bob questioned the significance of specific labor market numbers and he also touched upon why the US economy avoided a recession despite predictions. In this income-driven environment, Bob discussed the shift from growth to value stocks and the impact on investable assets in sectors with earnings and market consolidation. The supercycle in resource markets was also discussed highlighting investment lags behind demand and potential higher commodity prices contributing to inflation.

Central banks are grappling with rising inflation rates exceeding targets due to wage growth matching or surpassing price increases in developed countries like Europe, the UK, and the US. Elliott discusses the shift from growth to value stocks amid an income-driven economic environment, highlighting the importance of investing in sectors with earnings and market consolidation.

A ceasefire in Gaza appears less likely following additional demands by Hamas and the shelling of Israeli troops in Israel. Wage growth in April was its lowest since June 2021, which should mean less inflation. However, the Cleveland Federal Reserve predicts the upcoming headline April CPI inflation reading will be a disappointingly high 3.5% year/year, the same as March. The Yen fell 5% in April, then bounced 5% since then. There's been no event, so the best we can say is as long as people can borrow at 1% in Yen and invest at 6% in US Dollars, the currency will go down. But a Big Mac in Japan is 12% cheaper than a Big Mac in China, while Japanese incomes are 6x higher than Chinese ones. It's not possible for a developed market to have emerging market prices forever.This episode is presented by Mark Matthews, Head of Research Asia at Julius Baer.

A sequential rise in February core inflation is not cause for concern, as it is due to “residual seasonality”, an auto insurance outlier, and residential real estate which will come down. The S&P 500 index's positive return in each of the last four months is something that only happened 16 times before; on average after those times, it returned 16% to the end of the year. There is a break-out in the downward trend of the Chinese stock market, and the gradient is turning positive in several economic data series there. Japan's wages will be 5.3% higher than last year, the largest increase since 1991. We look for the Bank of Japan to raise the policy rate from -0.1% to 0.2% a year from now. This episode is presented by Mark Matthews, Head of Research Asia at Julius Baer.
