The Markets Are Lying to You w/ Economist David Ranson

The Financial Quarterback® Podcast with Josh Jalinski

How do geopolitical risks shape inflation and the stock market? Josh dives into this with economist David Ranson, who’s renowned for his accurate inflation forecasts. David kicks off the conversation by discussing how geopolitical uncertainties can temporarily suppress energy prices, giving a false sense of cooling inflation. They also explore the predictive power of gold prices, the VIX index's impact on market behavior, and why a recession isn’t on the immediate horizon unless there's a significant economic shock.

The discussion then shifts to global investment opportunities, with David highlighting promising markets like Argentina, Egypt, and Turkey, where stabilizing currencies could offer lucrative returns. The episode wraps up with a deep dive into current economic trends and what they mean for investors.
