| 0:00.0 | Fed just flipped with now Powell discussing possible rate cuts in September. |
| 0:08.8 | But the question is, is the economy so weak that it's not going to matter? |
| 0:14.7 | I know. So do you think this is Trump? |
| 0:17.8 | No. |
| 0:18.4 | No, I don't know. I don't know. He's saying it's not, but let's dig in a little bit more. |
| 0:23.5 | You know, let's talk about his message at Jackson Hole because everybody was hanging on that |
| 0:27.7 | last week, right? Yeah, Jerry, if you can pull up clip one. Powell said, nonetheless, with policy |
| 0:34.1 | and restrictive territory, the baseline outlook and the shifting balance of risks |

| 1:27.1 | Like, like, I don't know. I have friends in the field. You have friends in the field. The employment market is not good right now. It's not. Right? Like, I mean, you know, maybe it is in some areas, guys. But, you know, it's moving fast. And, you know, and I think it's way worse than it's being reported |
| 1:46.5 | personally. But before we get into that, let's talk about, I think, you know, when he, when Paul |
