About this episode
Today I'm diving into the tariff-induced market mania that has been dominating every news headline. Specifically, I'm joined by Cullen Roche, monetary economics expert and founder of Discipline Funds, to discuss three important things: ? How tariffs actually work and why economists across the political spectrum overwhelmingly agree they are bad ? What the recent tariff proposal means for the economy (and American consumers) ? What yesterday's "90-day pause" means for the markets going forward We also discuss how retirement investors should approach their portfolios during this period of economic uncertainty + what changes are prudent to make. *** 2025 TAX CHEATSHEET Subscribe to the Stay Wealthy Retirement Newsletter!
