Rate Cuts, Tariffs & Trillions: Why the ...

Matt Aitchison
About this episode

In this jam-packed episode, Matty A and Ryan Breedwell break down the Fed’s latest interest rate predictions and what Wall Street's betting on for the back half of 2025. They cover the booming stock market, Trump’s bold tariff plays and their real economic impact, and why Bitcoin may be taking a back seat to Ethereum in the crypto space. Plus, they tackle the big, beautiful bill moving through Congress, how crypto is now being counted toward real estate lending, and the looming ripple effects for investors and small business owners alike.

If you want to understand the direction of markets, inflation, and crypto regulation—and what it all means for your portfolio—this is a must-listen.
