E.J. Antoni, PhD, Economist and Research Fellow at the Heritage Foundation, explains why the Fed’s plan to cut interest rates won’t solve deeper economic problems—such as runaway government borrowing and record deficits—that threaten American financial stability. He uncovers how the Fed is at loggerheads with the US Treasury, creating a dangerous conflict between monetary and fiscal policy that exacerbates inflation, unemployment, and high credit costs, impacting American households. E.J. joins Wealthion’s Andrew Brill as part of our special coverage of the Fed’s Federal Open Market Committee this week, highlighting the urgent need for fiscal restraint and coordinated reform to align monetary and fiscal policy and prevent a profound economic crisis.

---------------------
At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money. Each week we add new videos that provide you with access to the foremost specialists in investing, economics, the stock market, real estate and personal finance.

We offer exceptional interviews and explainer videos that dive deep into the trends driving today's markets, the economy, and your own net worth. We give you strategies for financial security, practical answers to questions like “how to grow my investments?”, and effective solutions for wealth building tailored to 'regular' investors just like you.

There’s no doubt that it's a very challenging time right now for the average investor. Above and beyond the recent economic impacts of COVID, the new era of record low interest rates, runaway US debt and US deficits, and trillions of dollars in monetary and fiscal stimulus stimulus has changed the rules of investing by dangerously distorting the Dow index, the S&P 500, and nearly all other asset prices. Can prices keep rising, or is there a painful reckoning ahead?

Let us help you prepare your portfolio just in case the future brings one or more of the following: inflation, deflation, a bull market, a bear market, a market correction, a stock market crash, a real estate bubble, a real estate crash, an economic boom, a recession, a depression, or another global financial crisis.

Put the wisdom from the money & markets experts we feature on Wealthion into action by scheduling a free consultation with Wealthion’s endorsed financial advisors, who will work with you to determine the right next steps for you to take in building your wealth.
