This episode of The Higher Standard is a cocktail of Fed-watching, real talk, and the kind of banter only we can pull off. Chris, Saied, and Rajeil rip into the upcoming FOMC meeting, breaking down why a rate cut is basically baked in and why the real drama is all about Powell’s spin at the mic. We cover everything from nonfarm payroll revisions to bond market chess moves, and even take a detour into real estate Twitter beefs that prove “demand without affordability is not demand.” If you’ve ever wanted to know how politics, Wall Street, and your mortgage payment all collide in one giant economic soap opera, this one’s for you. ➡️ But don’t get it twisted. We still find time to roast bad reviews, gossip about Leonardo DiCaprio’s dating strategy, and debate whether OnlyFans has an app (spoiler: it doesn’t). There’s merch talk, newsletter hacks, and the occasional foot fetish confession. By the time we wrap, you’ll know why Powell’s ties matter, why housing prices feel like Lamborghinis, and why episode 300 might just involve port wine, air mattresses, and regrettable decisions. Welcome to the number one financial literacy podcast in the world where economics meets entertainment, and we somehow make both make sense. 💥 Have you left your "honest ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️" review? 👕 THS MERCH: http://www.thspod.com 🔗 Resources: FedWatch (Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group) Higher 'core' inflation reading unlikely to knock Fed off course for rate cut in September (Yahoo!
