Welcome back to another episode of Money Moves. This week, hosts Matty A. and Ryan Breedwell unpack a wild week of market data, geopolitical tension, and shifting economic policies. Episode Highlights Oil & Geopolitics: Tensions in the Strait of Hormuz have sent oil prices swinging from $85 up to $106. Ryan shares why a conflict resolution could drive energy costs down and push the S&P 500 to new highs. Economic Realities: PPI landed around 2.4% while GDP dipped to 0.7%. We also examine the staggering 104 million Americans currently outside the labor force. Powell’s Farewell: Ahead of Jerome Powell’s final FOMC speech before his May exit, the guys discuss the likelihood of a rate pause and what it means for the market. Crypto Momentum: Bitcoin saw a 10% relief rally, pushing it near $74.5k. Plus, a look at the delayed Clarity Act and what it means for the future of bank and crypto integration. The Real Estate Squeeze: With the income required to buy a median home hitting $111,000, renting is now significantly cheaper. The episode also covers a new Senate bill aimed at banning investors from buying single-family homes.
