Is the U.S. Headed Towards Stagflation?

Is the US economy headed for a 1970s-style stagflation? In this episode of the Market Moment, Lee Mackey, John Martfeld, and Isaac Johnson dive into the massive headlines rocking the financial world this week—from leadership changes at the world’s largest tech giant to the shifting political landscape.   In this episode, we discuss: ➡️The End of an Era at Apple: We break down Tim Cook’s decision to step down as CEO and what the appointment of John Ternus means for Apple’s future in the AI arms race. ➡️The "Overrated" Fed? With a new Fed chair appointee beginning hearings, the team debates whether Jerome Powell’s exit actually matters for the stock market or if the Fed’s role is being blown out of proportion. ➡️Midterm Madness & Market Gridlock: Why the markets historically love a divided government and what the upcoming election cycle could mean for your portfolio. ➡️Stagflation Watch: We break down the "three-legged stool" of growth, inflation, and jobs. Which leg is currently at the most risk?. ➡️US vs. International Valuations: Are domestic stocks overstretched? John explains why international markets might finally be ready to revert to the mean after 20 years of US dominance. Enjoyed the episode?
