Description
Episode 6 of The Federal Reserve Podcast with Fexingo zooms in on the Russell 2000, which surged 3.4% in the past week even as the Fed keeps rates at 3.64%. Hosts Lucas and Luna explore why small-cap stocks are outperforming the S&P 500, what the bond market's reaction tells us about economic expectations, and whether this rally can survive a consumer sentiment at a record low. They also touch on the 'AI economy' rewrite of blue-collar work and what it means for smaller companies. A focused, numbers-grounded conversation for anyone trying to read the Fed's next move.
