The latest jobs report changed everything. With job growth weaker than expected and revised numbers showing major cracks, the Fed looks set to cut rates this month, so what does that mean for us?
In this episode, I break down:
• Why the jobs market is weaker than we thought
• How Fed rate cuts could shape the rest of 2025
• Why mortgage rates dropped to the low 6s
• The surge in refinance and buyer demand
• What this means if you’re planning to buy or refinance
Plus, I shared what I’ve been watching when I’m not watching the Eagles win or the markets.
