Show from 08/16/24 Host Jeremy Schwartz is joined outdoors by guests Jim Bianco, founder of Bianco Research, and Jack Farley of Blockworks and the Forward Guidance podcast. The trio delves into a broad array of topics, including the potential for further interest rate cuts. They discuss implications of persistently high inflation, and the shifting dynamics in the bond and stock markets. Jim Bianco shares his perspective on a "no landing" scenario where the economy continues to grow without a significant downturn, which could lead to structurally higher inflation. They also discuss the evolution of the bond market, particularly the growing influence of ETFs. They talk about how these financial instruments are transforming traditional investment strategies.
