Latest / Stagflation Conversations with Fexingo: High Inflation, Slow Growth, and 1970s Echoes
The Fed's October Surprise and the Stagflation Trap
With the U.S. budget deficit swelling to almost two trillion dollars and the Dow hitting new highs while tech stalls, Lucas and Luna dissect the market's confusing signals on October 20, 2026. They examine how Kevin Warsh’s potential stance at the FOMC could trigger a surprise rate hike despite softening real GDP growth of just 2.2 percent. The conversation explores whether this fiscal-monometary divergence is the final echo of 1970s stagflation or a unique structural shift in modern finance.
