For this week's long-form episode, we visit with our friend Julian Brigden of Mi2 Partners. Julian and Trevor walk through a number of scenarios in which the Federal Reserve is dealt with. On one hand, the equity market appears to be holding up the labor market. But the market is also pricing in fed rate cuts. So there is a diverging correlation between the bond market and the equity market. Julian talks about why this is unsustainable and why something will have to give.

We also spend time talking about the equity market in this macro environment. Is it too early to dive head first into equities? Its important to know all the dynamics of decisions yet to be made before the all clear.
