CNBC star and Wilf’s former co-anchor, Sara Eisen, joins the Master Investor Podcast to reflect on the state of the US economy and stock market, as well as her career and the incredible people she has met and interviewed, from Secretary Bessent to Fed Chair Jay Powell.

From her front-row seat at CNBC, where she anchors “Squawk on the Street” and “Money Movers,” Sara offers an insider’s view on how America’s economy continues to defy expectations – and why business investment, AI innovation, and the Trump administration’s policies have combined to fuel a surprisingly strong economy. She also discusses the evolving role of tariffs and why they’re here to stay; the balancing act that Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell faces, and how and why Secretary Bessent has been able to reassure stock market investors in the face of huge volatility.

Beyond the headlines, Sara shares personal insights into her evolution as one of the world’s premier business journalists — from covering currencies at Bloomberg to interviewing central bankers, presidents, and CEOs. She reflects on her interviewing philosophy, what it takes to thrive under pressure, and why preparation and curiosity remain her superpowers.

In a lively and warm exchange, Wilf and Sara reminisce about their years on air together, swap stories about anchoring at dawn, and close with her take on the best leadership traits she's observed from the world’s top decision-makers – plus who’s still on her interview bucket list (hint: Taylor Swift and Sam Altman).

A must-listen for anyone interested in markets, media, and the art of asking better questions – featuring two of financial journalism’s finest in conversation.
