## Resource

Summary: This episode provides a deep dive into the Federal Reserve's latest impact on the housing market as of early 2026. Host Josh explains why expected rate cuts were delayed and how the Fed's "stealth moves" are currently shaping mortgage rates and buyer demand. The discussion moves past the headlines to provide agents with a data-driven understanding of inflation, labor trends, and the voting structure of the FOMC. Agents will gain the tactical knowledge needed to explain complex interest rate movements to confused buyers and position themselves as authoritative experts in a volatile market.
