In Episode 384 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Bob Elliott, the co-founder and CEO of Unlimited, a financial services firm that uses machine learning to create products that replicate the index returns of alternative investments.
Demetri asked Bob Elliott back on the podcast today to discuss the big macroeconomic story everyone's been talking about, which is the Fed's pivot from fighting inflation to supporting the labor market by cutting interest rates into an apparently strong economy.
Bob and Demetri discuss what sorts of consequences this new policy stance may have, especially if consumers and businesses seek to take on more debt. This would move us from what has largely been an income-driven business cycle to a credit-driven one, potentially adding rocket fuel to an otherwise already strong economy.
The two also discuss China's economic conditions, the importance of the recently announced stimulus, and how China's economy matters not only to Chinese investors but also to those with no direct exposure to the country's economy or stock market.
