In the July 14 episode of Optimal Insights, the team discusses the latest market dynamics, including inflation expectations, tariff impacts, and the Fed’s rate trajectory. Jim and Alex unpack the administration’s pressure on the Fed, the resilience of jobless claims, and the looming August 1 tariff deadline. Later, Jim and Vimi sit down with Optimal Blue CEO Joe Tyrrell for a wide-ranging conversation on AI’s role in mortgage tech, the future of automation, and how lenders can evaluate innovation in a tight-margin environment.
Notable Insights:
- Jobless claims remain resilient; inflation data is in focus this week.
- Tariffs on major trading partners (Canada, Mexico, EU) could reshape global trade flows.
- Joe Tyrrell emphasizes AI’s potential to reduce bias, improve efficiency, and scale operations.
