The months keep getting more eventful and flying by faster. For starters, we are now in the Kevin Warsh era as the chair of the Fed; and as this gets published we are entering into the IPO summer frenzy. Yield volatility continues to persist and this time, it's not because due to private credit. Rather, a strong jobs print and hotter than expected (by others, not us) inflation is now pushing r...

The Strait of Hormuz has been closed for over 60 days now and end-of-war agreements only seem to stall. However, in the Month of April, markets have soared to new all time highs and have even seen high market cap sectors go on historic win streaks. Is this a really forward thinking reaction, or just a dead cat bounce? On top of that, we're in the middle of a wildly important week with five of...

What a whirldwind of events that has taken place in the last few weeks. Geopolitical tensions surfacing in Iran is certainly causing a shock to global supply chains and energy prices, putting the Federal Reserve (as well as other central banks) ini handcuffs. However, yield volatility in the fixed income markets seem to be hinting at the idea of less visibility moving forward...whatever that's...

Sorry for getting this out so late! Had a lot of life events taking place. I promise the next one will be released within 2 days of being recorded! But a lot has happened since our last drink together, namely a GDP print, inflation print, and a rather significant supreme court ruling.

I guess it really didn't take long for the volatility spike to hit the markets. On the same (or opposite side of) token, it also didn't take long for the volatility to go away. With the current administration moving as fast as they do, it's tough to keep up with all things happening, from Davos, to the Fed, to manufacturing numbers, to executive orders on Credit Cards and Real Estate,...

Greetings everyone, just wanted to hop on to do some semi-immediate reactions to what happened in Venezuela last weekend. Episode was recorded on 1/6/26.

Happy New Year everyone! Hope you're all ready for our 2026 economic outlook. I should warn you, we were drinking during the recording of this (obviously) so we hardly even remember what was said. Regardless, feel free to hold us to our word and point out what we got wrong in a few weeks/months. You can do so at: Find us on Twitter, Instagram, & Facebook @DRUNKENOMICAL Merch: drunkenomics....

What a time to experience some seasonal volatility. As we worry about the froth in our gravy back shots, investors have seemingly been worrying about the froth in megacap valuations thanks to a few signals from earnings and OpenAI's CEO.

Hope everyone is having a nice October so far. For a minute there, it was a bit frightening to see some tariff volatility enter the chat; but glad that was short lived. Hopefully cooler heads will prevail moving forward and we can sail off into the year end. In other news, the government shutdown is still going on, agriculture deals are being proposed with Argentina, and the Fed will likely make b...

Probably the more fitting question is: will it be worth it? A lot of pieces on the economic chess board are moving fast. With A.I. driving efficiency but taking over entry level jobs, to the lackluster labor reports driven by fewer government jobs, then of course, new developments on the tariff front; the looming question will be: will it all be worth it? Find us on Twitter, Instagram, & Faceb...

A lot of huge economic data hit the tape last week, with GDP, labor numbers, a Fed meeting, earnings week, etc. All the while, markets seemingly love finding new reasons to push through a new all time high. A lot of frenzies are returning such as crypto, meme stocks, IPOs, etc; how convincing is this market euphoria? Find us on Twitter, Instagram, & Facebook @DRUNKENOMICAL Merch: drunkenomics....

ANNOUNCEMENT! Due to some career changes, the structure of Drunkenomics has to shift...but don't worry! The podcast is still in good hands of the eternally more gracious host.

Probably not what you all were asking for, but we needed to pay some homage to the brilliant career of Warren Buffett. His insights, banter, and philosphy will be sorely missed in the investing world next year...and yes, we will all do what we can to carry the torch. Additionally, a ton of economic data came in since the last time we had a dram together. More to come on that. Find us on Twitter, I...

What a time to be alive...it seems like we're 5 tweets away from either a falling knife or new all time highs every other day. Now there's a 90-day pause, a joust between the Fed Chair and the President, and an honest retreat from the U.S. Dollar. I'm sure I'm missing a couple things, but go easy on me.

Only did this because Tim in our discord requested an emergency, post-liberation day broadcast. FYI, I was out of whiskey, had very little time to record and edit, so sorry if it's sloppy. Cheers,

It seems like lately, the odds of a recession are climbing, but it also seems like there's so much more to the 'recession' label than GDP. However, it seems like the private sector has been catching on with new trends on how to produce more 'product' to buoy GDP; particularly with private credit & more BNPL ideas. Now what could possibly go wrong with that. Find us on Twitt...

Apologies for the awkwardness this week, had to do a solo episode due to some scheduling conflicts, but I promise we'll be back in full form next week! Wanted to give a quick recap on the markets now that we're in correction territory and show some historical data. I also may have confused the term "recession" with "bear-market" a few times, so please forgive me. I blame the whiskey. But to clarif...

The Trump Administration is obviously moving very fast and the economy / markets are taking it on the chin. With all the uncertainty around, investors are cleary being cautious as they find footing on how trade negotiations will impact businesses & economic growth. Additionally, GDP revisions are start to scatter as economists try to get a handle on tariffs and how that inpacts output. Hope th...

Is it just me, or is the idea of creating a Sovereign Wealth Fund a crazy idea? Don't get me wrong, I totally see the appeal in launching one; but the idea of the Government picking favorites just doesn't sit well at all with me. Additionally, we had some other news on inflation, debt delinquincies, and retail sentiment we had to pour one out to. Find us on Twitter, Instagram, & Facebo...

Volatility Mondays are back!! Yes the excitement is sarcastic, but the first two weeks of the Trump administration has been far more eventful than the last four years. Starting with the Deepseek shock that sent a panic across the markets, followed by dozens of Executive Orders, a Fed Meeting, some very unfortunate accidents, and tumultuous tariff talks that ended in delays thanks to some 'wond...

First off, my heatfelt thoughts and prayers to all affected by the devastating wildfires. The saddest part is how most major insurance companies left the LA market months before the fires started. However, they're not the 'bad guys" here; join us for a beer as we explain. Find us on Twitter, Instagram, & Facebook @DRUNKENOMICAL Merch: drunkenomics.myspreadshop.com Patreon: patreon...

First episode of what will be year five of Drunkenomics! Thank you all so much for the support the last half decade! We hope the hangovers weren't too rough. As we kick off the year, we figured it'd be fitting to do a quick summary of the market outlooks from the major asset managers. That is of course after we catch up on the news about Nippon Steel and the DOD list. Find us on Twitter, Instagram...

This time of year is always so reflective; but it's also a good time to forecast and prepare for the new year. It seems like the topic of conversation has mostly been around inflation and what kind of landing the Fed will navigate for the economy. With limited tools, the Fed can really only do so much to tackle inflation. So to really address the issue, what needs to happen in the new year? Find u...

Due to the wonderful discussion that's been going on in the discord, we decided to finally talk about the Tariffs and the announced plan for the next administration. It's always a funny balance of globalism, protectionism, free trade, trade imbalance, price/supply chain efficiencies...what else am I missing here?
