The Fed, Inflation and Interest Rates: What Happens Next?
Has inflation finally been defeated, or could it be preparing for a comeback? In this segment, Brian and Richard explore both sides of the debate. They discuss the bullish case for a soft landing, including easing supply chain pressures, resilient economic growth, and the potential for AI-driven productivity gains to help keep inflation in check.

The conversation ultimately comes down to one key question: are we witnessing a historic economic soft landing, or simply the calm before the next inflation storm?
