Are Higher Interest Rates Actually Stimulating The Economy? - E897 - CFC
Manage episode 430728349 series 2407926
Ever notice how sometimes the "experts" get it all wrong?
While everyone's been freaking out about high interest rates crushing the economy…
...what if they're actually STIMULATING it instead?
Sounds crazy, right?
But that's exactly what my latest guest, Douglas Dowell, thinks is happening.
If you want to hear a perspective that'll flip everything you thought you knew about The Fed on its head…
Douglas Dowell is the Chief Investment Officer at Eagle's Flight Equity Group…and has a robust economic background in following trends and how they translate into real estate investing.
He believes that The Fed might actually need to CUT rates to cool down the economy...
In fact, they're essentially running a "reverse stimulus" by paying out high interest on government debt.
That means, they could be the ones keeping inflation higher than it needs to be.
Plus, The Fed's actions might not matter as much as we think…
It's mainly a fiscal story, with government spending being the real driver of the economy.
Douglas has shared many more insights in our today’s podcast that will help you make sense of this bizarre economic landscape we’re in…
…and how it might play out in the future.
