The Boldin Your Money Podcast

Tariffs, Markets & The Macro Story


Listen Later

In this episode of Boldin Your Money, host Steve Chen and guest Mike Himmelfarb unpack the newly announced "Liberation Day" tariffs and their sweeping impact on global markets, economic strategy, and personal finance. Recorded just days after a sharp market correction, the discussion blends macroeconomic insight with practical, real-world investing perspectives. Mike shares his background in finance and tech, and how his conservative, index-focused investment approach helps him navigate market volatility. The conversation explores the rationale behind the tariffs—including revenue generation, trade imbalances, and national security—as well as the risks of stagflation, geopolitical tension with China, and broader economic uncertainty. Together, they emphasize the importance of long-term planning, emotional discipline, diversification, and critical thinking in times of change. With insights on everything from debt refinancing to the role of automation and immigration in America’s future, the episode offers a thoughtful, grounded take on a complex moment in economic history.
