This week, we review a busy week of economic data, including updates on retail sales, employment, and inflation, and discuss what these signals mean for the broader economy. We ask how markets are digesting softening inflation, shifting Fed expectations, sector-level dispersion in equities, and ongoing volatility tied to AI-driven disruption. We end the episode with guest Sean Poe, Director of Investment Research at Key Wealth, who provides some guidance on how investors might think about IPOs, private markets and portfolio construction in the current environment.
