Markets are caught in one of the most uncertain macro environments in years. With Trump’s disrupting policies, conflicting economic signals, volatile energy markets, and Federal Reserve uncertainty, investors are struggling to determine the right playbook. Michael Kao joins Maggie Lake to unpack what’s driving today’s macro confusion and where we might be headed next. 🔹 How should investors think about inflation, interest rates, and the bond market’s fragility? 🔹 Will Trump 2.0 impact global energy markets—and what does it mean for oil prices? 🔹 Is the Fed at risk of losing control of financial conditions? 🔹 What role will AI-driven disruption play in reshaping industries and capital markets? Kao shares his insights on why macro is so difficult to read today, the shifting balance of power in global markets, and how investors can navigate a landscape where traditional models no longer seem to apply. 📊 Watch now for a nuanced discussion on markets, policy, and economic forces shaping the future.
