Super interesting, this was a great pod. So fascinating to hear all the different views and explanations of what we're seeing in the financial markets today.

At the end of the video, Bob says bond yields have to rise as a result of raised rates. The Fed raised rates and there's always an 18-month or so lag time for the effect to occur. It looks like that's happening in this, and next quarter as the Fed allows rates to stay high as long as possible. The federal domestic spending is partially hiding the effect of higher rates now but the lower class is already in recession and when the next rung up the ladder feels the impact the economy will crumble very quickly along with the Fed rates.

The Fed is in a "tightening" cycle based on manipulated data, but they are losening under the table through the manipulated data (example: continued excessive borrowing from the Treasury)

Exactly, you know financial conditions are still as loose as they've ever been when all indices (except small caps) are breaking records, Bitcoin is in the stratosphere again, and even the wallstreetbets clowns have enough spare money to try their games again!

Think of the absurdity of this title: "Biggest Risk for Investors is a Strong Economy." We are in serious trouble when a strong economy is a deterrent for investors. Goes against all basic investing principles.

9:56 Do the vast majomajority of households in the U.S. have jobs with regular pay increases, own a home, have a 401k? I’d love to see that data. 😊

Holy tone deaf alternate reality. The typical household owns the house, owns the car, carries no revolving debt and has income rising to keep pace with the costs of maintenance and insurance let alone entertainment? Maybe if typical means top 0.02%. My card statement says this month that should I ever need to carry a balance they now want 35%, and that's the pre-penalty rate.

Great episode, I really like Bob's take on things. One thing I am more worried about than Bob is that the Middle Class Household he describes (36:51) is by no means the median American. The median American does not even have a 401k. So 50 or 100% extra on zero dollar still is zero dollar. Also it is very debatable if the median American owns his/her own house, so no luck there either. This means that at least 50% of people are not enjoying assets price increases and are only negatively impacted by the 20% overall inflation impact since 2021. At some point this will lead to problems..

Where is this wage growth of 5 or 6% a year happening?
@25Soupy4 ай бұрын
if there is wage growth of 5 or 6% is just going to cause a wage-price spiral. Do a google search. In my province in Canada: "In 2023, B.C. increased the minimum wage by 6.9%, which was the increase in the cost of living in the province in 2022."

I guess if you call consumer debt at all time highs positive and government debt in the same boat a strong economy than I must be in outer space . Shouldn't we have surpluses in a strong economy. Asking for a friend

Enjoy Bob's concise articulation of broad macro components, especially emphasizing this is a Public Sector Asset Appreciation Income vs Private Sector credit driven economy. Although I expected more discussion about the magnitude of Fiscal Dominance and the continuing Bideneconomics Trillion USD deficits which actually do increase money supply and is one form of a credit driven economy. The FED is also running a deficit fueling household incomes with its 2023 $140 Billion Operating Loss buried as a US Taxpayer Receivable on its Balance Sheet...no one seems to highlight/discuss these unprecedented deficit transactions. Consequently NOBODY knows where this deranged CASINO is headed? Personally I anticipate icebergs!

Thanks so much for your feedback. I'll bring this up with my next guest. In the meantime, if you'd like more fiscal dominance conversations, I'd also recommend my conversations with Dr. Charles Calomiris, Luke Gromen, and Lyn Alden. We dive into that topic in those episodes.

38:00 minutes of the video: So to slow the economy and inflation, "bond yields have to raise". Do that not mean the Fed has to raise interest rates? Because Bob doesn't actually say that.

Either the Fed has to raise or the bond market will need to do it for them.

Young People, and Young Economist have not lived through a significant downturn as adults, or even as cognizant youths if their parents dodged a bullet. Not enough flowers and butterflies in our economy to sustain their optimism forever with such poor fundamentals.
