The Fed, the BOJ, and a Very Important Week for the Market (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Two major central banks. Two important meetings. One potentially very interesting week for investors. The Federal Reserve meets Wednesday, followed by the Bank of Japan on Friday. What these two central banks decide—and especially what they say about what comes next—could have a major impact on interest rates, bonds, currencies, stocks, and overall market sentiment. In this episode, we break down why the Fed and BOJ matter, how interest-rate decisions can affect global markets, and why the Japan
The Best Investment You’ll Ever Make Isn’t in the Stock Market (opens the original)

We also dive into the yen carry trade — the decades-long strategy of borrowing cheap yen and investing that money into higher-returning assets around the world.

$40 Trillion & Counting: The Truth About America’s Record Deficits (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The U.S. national debt just passed a mind-boggling $40 trillion, and over the last decade, we’ve effectively doubled what it took over two centuries to build. But while Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent claims the budget deficit has peaked under this administration, the numbers tell a very different story. In this episode of A Better Brew 4 A Brighter You , we pour a strong cup and break down how we got here—from presidential spending totals to the five largest annual federal deficits in U.S. his
