Macrocast: The end of the vibecession?
On this special Barbie-weekend edition of the Macrocast, Ylan Mui, Brendan Walsh, and John Fagan are joined by John Dick, CEO and founder of Civic Science, to dive into the latest economic sentiment index (ESI).
The group explores the monster day for consumer spending that was last week's Amazon Prime Day, along with the UPS-Teamsters negotiations, the economic impact of soon-to-be-resumed student debt payments, and whether we can finally breathe a sigh of relief about a soft economic landing. And be sure to stick around for some Barbie-premiere outfit planning toward the end of the show!
