America’s Affordability Crisis, Zohran Mamdani, Trump's Economy, & Crypto’s Lost Momentum

from Open Book with Anthony Scaramucci · host SALT & Goalhanger

Mike and I discuss why we're "nervous bulls" on markets—with the Fed cutting rates and Trump pumping money into the economy, valuations look attractive, but an exploding wealth inequality gap and growing political backlash could trigger a revolution that ends the bull market. We dive into housing affordability (half of America earns below what's needed to buy a home), tokenization's global impact, Abu Dhabi's rise as a financial hub, and what economic warning signs would make us turn bearish. 📚Mentioned in this episode: The Hour Between Dog and Wolf by John Coates Streetwise: Getting to and Through Goldman Sachs by Lloyd Blankfein Michael Novogratz is the Founder and CEO of Galaxy Digital.
