This morning’s Producer Price Index (PPI) data came in hotter than expected—showing a 0.7% increase, vs. 0.4% estimates. It’s just one of several signs that inflation has surged over the past few weeks.   Daniel and I discuss the growing disconnect between what the Fed is saying and what the market is hearing… why investors need to be prepared for more rate hikes… and why the Fed is fighting a battle it can’t win.   Charlie Munger is in the news for his latest anti-Bitcoin comments… even praising China for banning it. Daniel rants about Munger’s belligerent stance—and the hypocrisy of a lifelong capitalist praising communism/authoritarianism.   I also share how regulation could act as a tailwind for the crypto market in the coming years.   Lastly, I’m curious: For those of you who didn’t sell Bitcoin last year amid all the bankruptcies, fraud, and volatility… is there anything that would convince you to sell? .   In this episode    Breaking down the latest PPI data [1:30] Forget about a soft landing for the economy [7:00] The Fed’s no-win situation [12:18] Why Charlie Munger is a hypocrite [19:25] What would it take to make you sell your Bitcoin?
