25bps Cut… But ‘Hell to Pay’? Jim Bianco Warns the Fed Can’t Ignore Affordability

In this short clip from The Money Path, Jim Bianco (Bianco Research) explains why a 25-basis-point Fed cut looks likely—but the decision is more complicated than “weaker jobs = cut.” He points to initial jobless claims falling to 191,000 (a 3-year low) as evidence layoffs aren’t surging, even as announced job cuts can hint at what’s coming later. Then Bianco drops the key warning: the Fed may be underestimating the political and economic risk of affordability—because even as inflation cools, households still feel squeezed by the cumulative rise in prices since 2020. 👉 Watch the full episode here: • The Fed vs Wall Street: Jim Bianco Exposes... 🎥 The Money Path — Where smart money finds its way forward. 👉 Don’t forget to Like 📢 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Like⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👍 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Comment⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔔 for more in-depth market analysis! 🔗 Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://crosscheckmanagement.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠... 📧 Contact on Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[e-mail] ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this episode are those of the guests and hosts and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media or Biz Talk Today TV.
