Ep 567I Was Wrong...
It is important to admit when you are wrong. It may not happen often, but it does happen. Here is my error and why it happened. The Federal Reserve Chairman is a position with a lot of power. Essentially this person is god as everything he says or even infers is taken as gospel. The position does not pay millions of dollars a year and typically it is filled by an academic. Only rarely does it get filled by person with real life experience. So the attraction to the position is mainly for power and influence... and most important legacy. So my error was in thinking that Jerome Powell wanted to be remembered as a Paul Volker type, who killed inflation. However after the recent Fed meeting, it appears as if Powell is comfortable becoming the next Arthur Burns... Who fell over himself and did nothing and maybe even helped the US experience inflations rates approaching 20%. It was a crazy period of time to say the least and Powell may have just blundered into Burns' mistake. Only time will tell, but arrogance knows no bounds.. Just ask our politicians.

Ep 555The 2024 Bank Crisis Everyone Saw And Did Nothing
2023 is almost over and we only had one bank crisis. It is a miracle there were not more this year. However 2024 is shaping up to produce a potentially massive banking crisis on the scale of 2008. A 2024 bank crisis would surprise a lot of people, but at the same time everyone saw it coming and did nothing. Why? Good question. This has the making of the next black swan. Much like 2022 when the markets immediately dropped on the first day of trading. People just decided that it was time. Time will tell for 2024. Also in the news... The last US treasury auction yielded poor results when no one showed up. Yields are not dropping like many predicted. And next year should be interesting.

Ep 553The Fed Spoke… And The Market Listened
This week the Fed spoke and the market listened. Here is what it heard... We still don't believe you J Powell... We know you will lower rates next year. The markets should be higher despite any rational thought. HODL Nuff Said... Mic Drop... And in other news... People still cannot pay their credit card bills... or buy new homes... or afford to continue to spend on a debt fueled buying binge... And no one seems to notice or care. Alice in Wonderland is plain vanilla might be able to understand this, but not many others can.

Ep 549If You Want Excitement Watch The News. If You Want News, Listen To This Podcast
Looking for credible news sources? Me too. That's why I don't read the "news". I cultivate my sources from various places based on their ability to identify certain trends. This has taken me 20 years to filter Want your own sources? Here are 6 tips to cultivate your own sources How to cultivate investment sources Stay away from major media, most of it is propaganda or paid-for advertising Find independent sources and follow them for a while to get to know their perspective Find competing sources (e.g. republican view vs democrat view). This is hard but extremely valuable Find people who know how to think Challenge your own views on things. Challenge your ego Look for outliers or things that don't make sense Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | ProCollege Planners Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on X (formerly Twitter): https://x.com/MTIPodcast
