Description

Is the Fed ignoring a recession warning? In this video, we break down the signs that suggest the U.S. economy is already on the edge — or possibly in the early stages — of a recession. Despite mounting evidence, the Federal Reserve continues to hold interest rates steady. But is this the right move?
We explore the data: falling consumer spending, rising unemployment claims, tightening credit, and slowing GDP growth. Many experts argue that the Fed’s current policy is too aggressive for a fragile economy. Are we heading for a deeper downturn because the Fed is too slow to pivot?
This episode makes the case for immediate rate cuts and why waiting could be a costly mistake. We’ll also discuss the risks of cutting too soon and what history teaches us about monetary policy in uncertain times.
Whether you’re a real estate investor, small business owner, or everyday consumer, Fed rate decisions impact you directly. Understanding the potential consequences of Fed inaction could help you prepare for what’s coming next.
