  • Wow now I’m horrified!

    Just listen to the show on AI from the gang. Very insightful, but the articulation of at least two horrible endings for us all from AI certainly is scary.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Economic Data Dump
Q: Does the Moody's Analytics team expect the Fed to hike rates this year?
The consensus in the discussion leans toward a hold for now, with potential for a rate increase only if inflation expectations continue to rise or if the economy shows more persistent strength. The neutral stance is favored given uncertain growth and inflation dynamics.
Stocks, SpaceX, and Subways
Q: What is the most surprising element in the inflation data this month?
The team highlights the strength in the PPI excluding food, energy, and trade services as an indicator of underlying margins and price pressures that aren't showing up in the CPI, suggesting more persistent inflation going forward.
Mr. Financial System
Q: What role does AI play in the inflation and rate outlook?
In the near term, AI may boost demand and inflation through investment and wealth effects, which could push rates higher; in the longer term, productivity gains could raise potential growth, potentially altering the rate path.
Mr. Financial System
Q: How does private credit influence financial stability?
Private credit can support small and medium-sized enterprises by providing non-bank lending, but its opacity and interconnectedness raise systemic risk, making transparency and monitoring essential.
Mr. Financial System
Q: What is the dominant factor shaping expectations for future 10-year yields?
The discussion centers on the balance between the debt trajectory, potential growth, and the idea that the 10-year yield should hover around the economy's nominal potential growth rate, with structural forces like AI and demographics influencing R-star and the policy path.
