Ed Dean is back and breaking down a fragile U.S. economy facing rising energy costs, global instability, and growing uncertainty.
Joined by economist Pete Earle and analyst Steve Beaman, this episode dives into why gas prices aren’t dropping anytime soon, how the Iran conflict is impacting inflation, and why business confidence is weakening despite strong markets. They also tackle the housing market, rising foreclosures in Florida, and whether the Federal Reserve can actually move the needle. Plus—how messaging from Washington may be making things worse, not better. Is the economy stronger than it feels… or just holding on?
