Welcome to the Real Estate Strategies podcast, where we host in-depth conversations on everything

0:07.8

real estate with the industry's biggest movers and shakers. I'm your host, Ken McElroy, joined by my

0:13.9

co-host, Daniel. Let's get right into this episode. Hello, welcome to the Ken McRoy show.

0:20.1

I'm your host, DeNeil, here with Ken. Hello, everybody to the Ken Macquarie show. I'm your host, Danielle, here with Ken.

0:22.3

Hello, everybody. So today we are talking about why the Fed is getting worried.

0:29.2

Who is it? My gosh, not just the Fed. It's funny. I don't think that people believed that the Fed was going to do what they've

0:40.8

done, which is they've raised rates six times since March. Yeah. So, so something interesting,

1:45.7

you know we're over eight right now. It was interesting. The employment numbers came out last

1:51.1

week and they were actually pretty positive. I think we're at 3.7% unemployment. But lots of

1:59.1

criticism around that. You know, one of of the one of the tweets I read was what

2:04.1

what Biden's failing to say is that there were up 200,000 in part-time jobs and down over 400,000
