Description

This week on The Rate Guy, we talk about the wild aftermath of Friday's shocking jobs report—highlighting one of the biggest downward revisions since April 2020. We break down what really happened, why Trump fired the Commissioner of the BLS, and what that move signals for the Fed and future data credibility. We also unpack the growing odds of a rate cut in September, what to watch for in the search for a new Fed Governor, and how this all sets the stage for a chaotic lead-up to Jackson Hole.

It's a week without major data releases, but the calm may not last.
