Calm in the Chaos: What Markets Know That Headlines Don't

The world feels chaotic… What's really driving markets right now? With geopolitical tensions rising, oil shocks hitting global markets, and nonstop headline risk, investors are asking one question: why is the market holding up so well? In this episode, Michael Hartzman and Andrew Gilmartin are joined by Jack Manley (J.P. Morgan Global Market Strategist) to break it all down. They cover:

• Why markets remain surprisingly resilient despite global chaos
• How energy shocks impact inflation, growth, and consumer behavior
• Why today's economy is fundamentally different from past crises
• The hidden volatility beneath the surface of the market
• What AI, fiscal policy, and consumer strength mean going forward
• How global markets (and China) fit into the picture

The key takeaway?
The market may look calm—but underneath, there's a lot more happening than meets the eye. If you're trying to make sense of today's environment, this is a must-listen.
