Listen "Stagflation & Unemployment - The Fed is Between a Rock and a Hard Place! "
Episode Synopsis
Hey Satsmate Stackers, With all that is going on in the economy, the Federal Reserve is caught between a rock and a hard place. Currently, we are seeing unemployment tick higher, inflation tick higher, and rates start to come back down (short-term rates). In this podcast, I discuss how the FED is stuck between a rock and a hard place. We will see the situation further unravel as the months go on - but in the end, it is important to protect yourself with hard assets! We are starting to see the labor market cool significantly We all know the data is cooked, but Expectations in August were 75K, and only 22K jobs were addedCurrently, we are at about a 4.3% unemployment rate, and it keeps ticking upKey thing to note is the downward revisions of 911K fewer jobs created from April 24 to March 25Most of the jobs now are coming from the health care sector due to aging demographicsLayoffs surged to 85,979, up from 62,075 in July, and this is starting to make its way into the dataInflation is also on the rise, and it appears the FED has given up on the 2% inflation targetSome could be due to tariffs, but also increased input costsInflation is much higher than the 3.1% from my view, and if we cut rates, it will get worseProtect yourself with gold, silver, and most importantly, bitcoinCash and money market account yields will drop significantly soon, and where do you think all that money will go? Do you think your yearly wages will go up by the real inflation rate of 10-15%/year?How about the FED’s independence? Is it really smart to lower rates, despite inflation going higher?We know the FED isn’t independent, now is the time to protect yourselves with hard assetsCurrency will continue to debase, and dollar dominance will perish, the fiat experiment is starting to accelerate to the endIf you like this, feel free to share it, leave a like, or comment.
