Three Cuts, One Firing, and a Fed Seat Up for Grabs - 206
This week on the Good Life Housing Partners Podcast — Political shake-ups and shifting market expectations keep the week anything but boring. David and Rohan unpack the Fed’s sudden vacancy, bold new economic views, and an IRS firing that raises eyebrows.
- Fed Musical Chairs – A governor’s abrupt resignation clears the path for Trump’s pick, Stephen Moran — a Harvard economist who calls tariffs deflationary and pushes for less Fed independence.
- Rate-Cut Whiplash – JP Morgan jumps from predicting one cut to three this year, as Fed members hint at putting jobs ahead of inflation.
- Tariffs as a Tool – With Moran’s backing, Trump’s tariff threats could be reframed as economic stabilizers rather than market risks.
- IRS Shake-Up – Trump fires the IRS chief after only two months, handing oversight to the Treasury Secretary in a highly unusual move.
- Political Signals – From the Fed to the IRS, rapid personnel changes may signal deeper shifts in economic policy heading into election season.
