The Torres Report Debuts: From Payrolls to Powell & the Forces Driving Markets Now

The debut episode of The Torres Report launched on ⁠Biz Talk Today TV⁠, introducing a new weekly destination for clear, actionable insight on the economy and financial markets. Hosted by ⁠Todd M. Schoenberger⁠, the premiere featured ⁠José Torres⁠, Senior Economist at Interactive Brokers (IBKR), breaking down the latest nonfarm payrolls report, sticky inflation pressures in services and rents, and what they mean for Federal Reserve policy in the months ahead. José unpacked the shifting dynamics of the labor market — including lower participation, immigration constraints, and the growing impact of AI on entry-level jobs — while explaining why underlying fundamentals like GDP growth, productivity, and consumer demand remain supportive. He also outlined scenarios that could trigger meaningful rate cuts, weighed in on geopolitical risks and oil prices, and discussed how tariffs, fiscal policy, and political pressure on the Fed could influence markets in 2026. Designed as BTT’s flagship economics and markets segment, The Torres Report will air weekly, delivering clarity on macro trends, real-time market intelligence, and practical takeaways for investors, traders, business leaders, and everyday consumers. 👉 Don’t forget to Like 📢 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Like⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👍 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Comment⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔔 for more in-depth market analysis! 🔗 Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://crosscheckmanagement.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠... 📧 Contact on Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected] ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📱 Follow us for real-time updates: LinkedIn: ⁠ / crosscheck-media-llc ⁠ Instagram: ⁠ / crosscheckmedia ⁠ Facebook: ⁠ / crosscheckmedia ⁠ 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this episode are those of the guests and hosts and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media or Biz Talk Today TV.
