On the thread topic of inflation………
If you are interested in hearing an actual economist give his opinion, take a look at Consuelo Mack’s most recent program “WealthTrack” (PBS). Past episodes can be found at wealthtrack.com
I record “WealthTrack” each week. It is a short show, well-organized, and, at the end of every program, she always asks the professional she interviews to give a “tip” to her viewers.
The guy she talked to last week is known as a Fed Watcher (aren’t we all) who has some interesting comments on how he is viewing globalization now and also talks about behavioral economics.
I am fascinated by the behavioral aspect of economics and, boy oh boy, we sure are in the throes of that right now, especially re. the housing market. He also talks about the effect of the supply chain mess on behavioral econ.
If you watch this episode, don’t let the guy’s haircut distract you. Great hair. Weird style.
