2026 ECONOMIC WARNINGS & PREDICTIONS - TRISH REGAN
Description
Award-winning financial journalist Trish Regan breaks down what the headlines are getting wrong about the U.S. economy. From the latest jobs data to inflation, interest rates, gas prices, wages, AI job displacement, and the growing squeeze on the middle class—this conversation cuts through the spin and explains what the data really means for your money.
We cover why wages “outpacing inflation” doesn’t feel real, how Federal Reserve policy hits regular Americans differently than the wealthy, why housing is out of reach for an entire generation, and how energy prices quietly control the cost of everything you buy. We also dive into AI’s impact on jobs, the future of work, Venezuela and global energy politics, BRICS, the U.S. dollar, and what to expect as we head toward 2026.
If you’re confused, frustrated, or feel like the economy you’re living in doesn’t match what politicians are selling—this episode explains why.
