Episode Details

In this clip from The Money Path, Scott Ladner, CIO of Horizon Investments, delivers a clear warning about one of the biggest risks markets could face in 2026: politicizing the Federal Reserve. Ladner explains that while investors are debating whether the Fed cuts rates once or twice next year, the larger threat could be political pressure—especially if President Trump tries to push the central bank to act more aggressively. According to Ladner, history shows that when central banks are politicized, the result is almost always the opposite of what leaders want: rates rise and currencies weaken. His message is blunt: if Trump wants lower rates, stepping into the Fed’s decision-making process is the wrong move—and could derail the market environment. 🎥 Watch the full episode of The Money Path for deeper insight into Fed policy, macro risks, and 2026 strategy: Earnings Over Hype: Scott Ladner Explains What’s Really Driving Markets Now 🔍 SEO Hashtags #TheMoneyPath #ScottLadner #HorizonInvestments #FederalReserve #FedIndependence #Trump #InterestRates #MonetaryPolicy #RateCuts #MarketRisk #MacroEconomics #2026Outlook #StockMarket
