Another Fed meeting and another disappointment for someone. We look at the CPI numbers and then the Fed decision to pause on rate hikes and it make me scratch my head in confusion. They say they are worried about inflation, and maybe raising rates 1-2 more times this year, yet inflation is dropping quickly, the economy seems to be fine and interest rates are higher than they have been in 20 years. Are we living in the twilight zone, Alice and Wonderland, or fantasy land. it's not entirely clear, but one thing is clear... The Fed is determined to squash inflation no matter what. If they keep on this path, it leads to deflation, which is another boogieman they are afraid of. We will see which monster under the bed they are afraid of most. Both are bad choices, but they cannot sit this one out. I'm still sticking to my claim that we could hit 0% inflation by year end. We are halfway through the year and accelerating towards that number. I might hit the target earlier than expected. Join us this week for another exciting episode about what the end of world looks like.

The scary debt ceiling default talking points are behind us... or are they? As you know, we have predicted this was a farce long before the solution was (sort of) agreed to.

Once again we at Money Tree Investing Podcast are pulling back the curtain on the wizard and spilling the beans on Wall Street Secrets. This week we dispel the notion that supply and demand for house prices is why house prices are still high even though people cannot afford them. It's simply not true. Think about it for a moment. There are 100 widgets in supply. There are 100 people who want a widget. There should be a price that could be agreed upon to purchase those widgets. However what if I only have $100 and the widget costs $1,000. I guess I'm not buying that widget. I still want the widget, but I cannot buy it unless the prices is $100 or lower. That is effectively what is going on in the housing market. Sorry Wall Street. Try your tricks on someone else. Join us this week as we discuss the dynamics of housing, why its still expensive, even though people cannot afford to buy a home, what's up with the unemployment rate, and the big question... where is the recession?
