In this episode, Nik joined once again by portfolio manager and fixed-income expert Andy Constan. Andy explains his bearish view on the stock market as a reaction to inflation refusing to come down and the Treasury department likely to keep coupon issuance high. He also breaks down why he does not view today's situation as fiscal dominance any longer and how restrictive monetary policy will ultimately impact the economy. Andy briefly discusses Michael Howell's liquidity framework and why gold's move tells us the Fed is losing on inflation. We also get a rare bitcoin mention from Andy!

In this episode, Joe walks through an action-packed day in macro. The CPI print for last month came in cooler than analyst estimates, led by the shelter component which saw its first monthly decline in 3 years. Following the cool CPI data, rate expectations fell and risk assets popped, but Powell was quick to temper dovish hopes with his press conference in the afternoon. Though the Fed is content with the path of inflation, it is not satisfied with the level still being well above its 2% target. It remains flexible, with its eye on developments in the labor market, into the end of the year. Joe wraps by talking about how asset prices will behave heading into the end of the year.
