Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago

A cautiously recovering housing market and resilient labor data are sending a clear signal: the economy does not need another interest rate hike. This episode breaks down why residential construction matters so deeply to growth, jobs, and consumer confidence — and why tightening monetary policy now could derail a fragile recovery before it gains momentum.
