Alex and Shimon discuss the latest in the markets and the upcoming Bitcoin halving. Will the previous pattern of sideways action and then an upward break repeat itself? They also discuss the latest unemployment and CPI prints and how the current methodology of calculating these metrics that the federal reserve relies on for determining the monetary policy, may no longer be accurate for the post-covid world. We discuss a thesis where the actual CPI is lower, and actual unemployment is higher, which means that the federal reserve can start reversing course sooner rather than later.

We then welcome back Kristen Ragusin to the show for Part 2 of our discussion around money and scarcity.
