The Weekly Money Clip

In this episode of The Money Path, host ⁠Todd M. Schoenberger⁠ sits down with ⁠Jim Bianco⁠ of ⁠Bianco Research⁠ for a sharp breakdown of the upcoming Federal Reserve decision and the growing disconnect between what markets are pricing and what the Fed is likely to deliver. With Wall Street centered on a widely expected 25-basis-point cut and softening signals like the weakest ADP print in more than two years, Bianco challenges the assumption that an aggressive cut cycle is a given—and asks whether the Fed can (or should) validate market expectations. The conversation goes deeper into what may matter even more than the headline cut: the rising possibility of unusual dissent votes, what they signal about Fed independence, and how politics could influence the optics of decision-making. Bianco also argues that rate cuts won’t solve structural pressures such as automation-driven layoffs and a worsening affordability problem, and warns that pushing rates too low could reignite inflation and keep long-term yields elevated. They close by discussing how data disruptions and measurement challenges complicate the jobs-and-inflation picture—and why better administrative data may be the next big policy debate. 🎥 The Money Path — Where smart money finds its way forward. 👉 Don’t forget to Like 📢 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Like⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👍 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Comment⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔔 for more in-depth market analysis! 🔗 Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://crosscheckmanagement.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠...⁠ 📧 Contact on Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected] ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this episode are those of the guests and hosts and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media or Biz Talk Today TV.

In this post-live episode of The Money Path, host ⁠Todd M. Schoenberger⁠ sits down with ⁠Aquiles Larrea⁠ for a wide-ranging market conversation—from today’s “lame duck” feel in equities to what could drive the next major move. Aquiles explains why investors may be overconfident in some areas while remaining overly skeptical in others, and why a recent pullback looks more like a normal (and slightly delayed) correction than a true breakdown. They dig into the key macro catalysts ahead, including the upcoming Fed meeting, the impact of weakening private-sector employment signals, and how inflation and tariffs could pressure consumer affordability and housing costs. Aquiles also lays out investment themes he’s watching into 2026, including AI, quantum computing, nuclear energy, infrastructure, and aerospace/defense—plus how competition in chips could shape the next cycle for big tech. 🎥 The Money Path — Where smart money finds its way forward. 👉 Don’t forget to Like 📢 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Like⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👍 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Comment⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔔 for more in-depth market analysis! 🔗 Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://crosscheckmanagement.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠...⁠ 📧 Contact on Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected] ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📱 Follow us for real-time updates: LinkedIn: ⁠  / crosscheck-media-llc  ⁠ Instagram: ⁠  / crosscheckmedia  ⁠ Facebook: ⁠  / crosscheckmedia  ⁠ 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this episode are those of the guests and hosts and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media or Biz Talk Today TV.

In this edited on-demand episode of The Money Path, host ⁠Todd M. Schoenberger⁠ sits down with Maria Jelescu-Dreyfus, Co-founder & CEO of ⁠Ardinall Investment Management⁠, for a timely breakdown of today’s biggest energy-market hinge points. Maria explains why geopolitics—especially the Russia-Ukraine war—often gets mispriced, and how to spot when markets are under- or overpricing risk. They unpack the IEA’s 2026 oversupply forecast, the assumptions that matter most, and why shifting supply dynamics could change the outlook quickly. The conversation also explores what increased production from Russia, the upside potential in Venezuela’s heavy crude, and the uncertainty around Iran could mean for oil prices and volatility. They close with a clear-eyed look at transition investing—why fossil fuels may remain essential longer than many expect, how legacy energy companies can adapt, and what investors should watch as capital flows move toward infrastructure and lower-carbon fuels. 🎥 The Money Path — Where smart money finds its way forward. 👉 Don’t forget to 📢 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Like⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👍 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Comment⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔔 for more in-depth market analysis! 🔗 Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://crosscheckmanagement.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠...⁠ 📧 Contact on Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected] ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this episode are those of the guests and hosts and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media or Biz Talk Today TV.
