In this episode, Nik joined once again by portfolio manager and fixed-income expert Andy Constan. Andy explains his bearish view on the stock market as a reaction to inflation refusing to come down and the Treasury department likely to keep coupon issuance high. He also breaks down why he does not view today's situation as fiscal dominance any longer and how restrictive monetary policy will ultimately impact the economy. Andy briefly discusses Michael Howell's liquidity framework and why gold's move tells us the Fed is losing on inflation. We also get a rare bitcoin mention from Andy!
