ABOUT THE EPISODE
Jeremy Siegel joins Dan Loney to break down the Fed’s latest 25-basis-point cut and why the internal split among policymakers signals deeper uncertainty ahead. He explains why housing and tariffs complicate the inflation picture, why he could argue for a 50-basis-point move, and what upcoming jobs data might reveal about the real state of the economy. Siegel also highlights how massive AI investment is giving companies new ways to cut costs and boost efficiency, helping offset the profit pressures created by tariffs.
