Скачать или смотреть THS LIVE | 01.12.26 | Powell Speaks, JPM Calls a Rate Hike... Markets Face a New Reality

Today’s show is a perfect snapshot of how weird this economy has become: Jerome Powell is sending carefully worded letters to calm the room, JPMorgan is quietly penciling in a rate hike instead of a cut, home values are starting to feel the pressure of higher-for-longer financing, and gas prices are suddenly doing what inflation was supposed to do three years ago — go down. We’re breaking down what all of this actually means for markets, housing, and household balance sheets, because when Wall Street turns more hawkish at the same time Main Street gets a $2.79 gallon of relief, you’re not in a recovery… you’re in a repricing.
