The Job Market Is Crashing And The Fed Must CUT BIG
from From the Desk of Anthony Pompliano · host Anthony Pompliano
The latest jobs report was a total DISASTER. The U.S. economy added just 22,000 jobs in August. Blue-collar growth has stalled, construction and manufacturing are bleeding jobs, and white-collar layoffs are spreading. The Fed should have started cutting rates months ago, but now they’re trapped behind the curve AGAIN. In this episode, I explain why the labor market collapse means the Fed can’t play small ball — they need a drastic cut, at least 75 or even 100 basis points, to prevent the slowdown from spiraling.0:00 Intro0:43 Employment is falling off a cliff 2:16 The Fed needs to act fast and big4:59 My theory on the "crazy uncle" market we're currently in7:05 Elon Musk could get a $1 trillion incentive packageListen to From the Desk of Anthony Pompliano on:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/from-the-desk-of-anthony-pompliano/id1819778503Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1THAGnR1Xt1WDUn1CCTh1DPomp writes a daily letter to over 265,000+ investors about business, technology, and finance.
