110 - Don’t Trust the Headlines: Inflation & Jobs Are Getting Worse
Manage episode 490695595 series 3503391
Forget the fluff—this episode unpacks the real story behind the headlines. We dive into the numbers the media won’t tell you:
- ✅ Inflation’s hiding big jumps in electricity + natural gas, even as energy prices fall.
- 🚧 The labor market looks solid—until you factor in revisions, revised months ago, and the rise in multiple-job workers.
- 📉 Consumer sentiment cratered—down over 30% since January, and Americans are bracing for 7% inflation and rising unemployment.
- 🔎 We examine GDP, trade data, market indices—and the Stagflation Trifecta that the Fed quietly hinted at.
We’ll help you answer: Is the market too upbeat? Too down? Or just right? Plus, we map out a smart strategy to protect your portfolio. This isn’t fear-mongering—it’s financial clarity. Tune in.
