The market has been all over the place lately — up, down, sideways, spinning like it’s trying out for a theme park ride. Between AI hype, recession fears, mixed data, and nonstop headlines, it’s tough to tell which direction to trust.

In this episode, we slow things down and unpack what’s really driving the volatility. We break down:

• Why the AI boom is both unbelievable hype and legitimate fear

• The truth about bull vs bear market cycles and why long-term investors have the odds stacked in their favor

• How inflation cooled… then started creeping back up

• Why tariffs and early rate cuts are fueling new inflation pressures

• The surprising reality behind recent job numbers

• And why the Federal Reserve is stuck in a true “rock and a hard place” moment

This is Part 1 of a 2-part series where we’re piecing together the bigger picture — calmly, simply, and without the panic.

Grab a coffee, take a breath, and tune in.
