The Fed Is Fueling A New Inflation Wave | Danny Dayan

Listen to this episode from Forward Guidance on Spotify. In this episode, Danny Dayan breaks down his framework for analyzing financial conditions and their real-time impact on growth and inflation. He explains why traditional rate transmission mechanisms are breaking down, how immigration and tariffs are distorting the labor market and inflation, and why the Fed may be behind the curve.
