Think a quarter-point rate cut is the big story? Think again. In this episode of The Personal Wealth Coach, we peel back the headlines to uncover the real shockwave: the end of quantitative tightening and a subtle shift that could reshape the financial landscape. Jake McClure dives deep into the Federal Reserve’s playbook—why they’re reinvesting billions into Treasury bills, what that means for mortgage rates, and how these moves ripple through jobs, inflation, and your wallet. Along the way, we revisit the wild ride from the Great Recession to the pandemic stimulus, explore the AI boom versus the dot-com bubble, and tackle the timeless question: how do you thrive in uncertainty? Spoiler: it’s not magic—it’s strategy.
