Summary:
We’ve been hearing a lot about inflation in the news, and the government has admitted to a 7.5% inflation rate—the worst a country has seen in the last 40 years. I have David Stryzewski on the show to discuss this topic, and he says that interest rates, inflation, and geopolitical situations will ultimately be the factors that move the markets. It’s an important time to sit down and take account of your finances, and to prepare for the possibility of a stagflationary environment.

Highlights:
-The government is admitting to 7.5% inflation—this is the worst inflation a country in the world has encountered in the last 40 years
-What factors will move the markets? Interest rates, inflation, and geopolitical situations
-As the Fed is reducing its balance sheet and raising interest rates, the average consumer is put in an interesting position
-This is an important time for people to sit down and take an account of where they are financially
-David’s primary concern is stagflation, which comes from high inflation, high unemployment, and slow economic growth
-We’re experiencing a deficit of semiconductors
-The Fed is probably going to do more in the short term
