Description

In this round-robin style episode, we tackle some of the hottest questions in finance today: - Bull or Bear? We kick things off with the question everyone’s asking: “What’s the market going to do?” Our take on where overall returns could be headed. - Tariffs Are Back and they are BIG. $87 billion collected this year — and projections hit $300 billion for 2025. Is this a smart economic lever or a drag on growth? - Interest Rates & Trump vs. Powell. Everyone’s wondering when the Fed will pivot. We explore the timeline — and the political subplot playing out behind the scenes. - BBB Breakdown. While the Big Beautiful Bill covers many social issues, we ignore those and focus on the economic. We each discuss one thing that we like about the bill that can help spur the market and economy. Fast-paced, opinionated, and full of insights — this episode is a must-listen for investors trying to make sense of it all. Here's to wise investing, Brett, Brian, and Spencer
