#Jobs numbers came in below estimate (22K versus 75K est.) and the #unemployment rate ticked up to 4.3% in August, guaranteeing that #interestrates will get a 25BPS shave from the #Fed later this month. Future cuts? With sicky #inflation, not so sure. cnb.cx/3K5XEPK

Happy #laborDay everyone! Today we not only honor the working men and women who built America, we remember the contributions made by the #labor movement to this country that fundamentally changed the way we work. So, celebrate the history as you enjoy the day! #workers

#PCE came in as expected (HL .2% M/M, 2.6% Y/Y; Core .3% M/M, 2.9% Y/Y) while #income (+.4%) and #consumer spending (+.5%) remained solid, most likely greenlighting a 25BPS #Fed cut to #interestrates -- but don’t get your hopes up for doves. #inflation cnb.cx/45MKz52

Wonderful to meet with a #credit counseling group from South Korea, CCRC, in Washington, DC. #Debt has no borders, great to meet like-minded folks helping #consumers gain control over their finances no matter where they live. @moneymanagement #DoDebtDifferently #nonprofit

#PPI came in smoking hot at .9% M/M against a .2% estimate while core rose .9% M/M against a .3% estimate. Decidedly not great and it will certainly have an influence on the #Fed’s decision on #interestrates next month. #Inflation is coming, kids. cnb.cx/4mMIsW1

Household #debt hit another high, with consumers adding $185B in Q2. #Studentloans defaults jumped, and #mortgages, #creditcards, and #autoloans stayed stable, but with sticky #inflation, high #interestrates, and new #tariffs? Things could get much worse. consumeraffairs.com/news/consumer-…

Great interview today with @TrishaHendricks @12News! First time I’ve met her, and she’s awesome! Best reporter I've worked with since my old friend @rickdebruhl left the business. Thank you, Trisha. Look forward to the next one! #DoDebtDifferently #interestrates #creditcarddebt…

The #Fed did what was expected and held #interestrates at current levels while Chair #Powell remained consistent in his (rightful) insistence on the autonomy of the Central Bank. There's dissention in the #FOMC, but #inflation fears still rule the day. cnb.cx/4l1YE4g

With #GDP, #PCE, #unemployment numbers, and the #Fed's decision on #interestrates all happening this week, not only will I be in finance nerd heaven we'll all have a better picture of exactly where the #economy is and where it might be going the rest of the year. #inflation #FOMC

Trump is visiting the #Fed today. I hate to break it to him, but no amount of intimidation is going to force #Powell to back down. He's a honey badger. And he knows it. I'd be shocked if he suddenly changed his tune on #interestrates. #inflation #FOMC cnb.cx/3IGZCp5

Almost certain that #Ozzy never thought he'd live as long as he did. I kinda thought he might live forever... and he does in a way. Finally, off the rails. RIP. Enjoy the #CrazyTrain... #Ozzyosbourne #BLACKSABBATH

#CPI numbers are heating up (HL .3% M/M, 2.7% Y/Y; Core ,2% M/M, 2.9% Y/Y) and #wages are cooling down (-.1% M/M, +1% Y/Y) -- not a great economic arc and reason enough for the #Fed to hold pat on #interestrates. This could get ugly. #inflation #FOMC cnb.cx/46bjiLz

Happy #IndependenceDay! As we commemorate 249 years with #fireworks and barbecues, let’s give a nod to the dudes in powdered wigs and waistcoats who had a vision of what #America could become, and continue to make it a better place for everyone! #fourthofjuly2025 #freedom

Not sure how much weight I give #ADP jobs numbers (-33K v. +100K est.) since they’re so different from BLS #employment stats but they do reflect a hesitancy among employers to hire new workers or fill vacancies. #Fed #tariffs #GDP #inflation #unemployment cnb.cx/44sv01L
