Episode Details

Markets are facing a powerful convergence of macro forces: weakening job growth, rising oil prices, geopolitical conflict, and rapid AI-driven economic change.

On this episode of Wayve Wire, host Todd M. Schoenberger is joined by Wayve Capital CEO Joe Besecker and CIO Rhys Williams to analyze the biggest forces shaping markets right now.

The discussion comes as investors digest new economic data while escalating tensions in the Middle East raise concerns about energy markets and inflation.

The panel explores whether the economy could be entering a stagflationary environment, where slowing growth collides with rising costs and geopolitical instability.

Topics covered include:

• The latest U.S. jobs data and what it signals about the labor market
• How AI adoption is reshaping employment and productivity
• The impact of the Iran conflict on oil prices and global energy supply
• Risks surrounding the Strait of Hormuz and oil tanker insurance markets
• Whether markets are entering a stagflation cycle
• Investment opportunities during periods of macro volatility
• Safe-haven positioning including metals, treasuries, and cash
• The long-term outlook for AI-driven companies and hyperscalers

Despite geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty, the panel explains why structural trends such as energy independence and AI investment could continue to drive markets over the long term.
