FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:00

you know sometimes i just don't even

0:01

know what to believe anymore it's

0:03

really frustrating but right after janet

0:06

yellen well maybe not right after but

0:08

after janet yellen shocked markets

0:11

by reminding you that the coupon code

0:12

expires tomorrow on cinco de mayo for

0:15

the program's link down below

0:16

okay uh after janet yellen freaked out

0:20

uh markets that hey

0:23

we might have to raise rates here in the

0:24

future which is obviously something she

0:27

internalizes it's obviously something

0:29

she believes obviously right

0:32

uh i mean hey she was talking about the

0:36

context of if we spend four trillion

0:38

dollars

0:38

economy could overheat and we might have

0:40

to raise rates that led the market to

0:42

have heartburn today the market was

0:45

pretty darn down today in fact the

0:47

nasdaq was down more than

0:48

any day it's been since march and we had

0:51

some big sell-offs the first week uh

0:53

first week in a bit of march but anyway

0:56

janet yellen

0:57

is now trying to backtrack some of those

0:59

comments

1:00

bloomberg has her quoted here saying

1:02

it's not something i'm predicting

1:04

or recommending if anyone appreciates

1:07

the independence of the federal reserve

1:10

i think that person is me okay so so

1:14

in other words let's let's clarify this

1:17

she's not predicting the fed's going to

1:18

raise rates

1:19

she's not recommending the fed raises

1:21

rates but

1:23

and that's what she did say here but she

1:25

did say earlier she thinks that rates

1:27

would go up

1:28

uh with potentially with biden's plan

1:30

which she didn't say that oh never mind

1:32

never mind i take that back

1:34

so you still think greats are going to

1:35

go up with biden's plan

1:37

and this has led a lot of people to go

1:38

well so that means you

1:40

internally think there's going to be

1:42

inflation

1:43

of course they try to address that as

1:46

well in fact i'm going to read this

1:47

section here from bloomberg thank you

1:48

bloomberg

1:49

yellen said she didn't anticipate a bout

1:51

of persistently higher inflation

1:54

but that if one occurred about a fire

1:57

inflation

1:58

the central bank has the tools to deal

2:00

with it the biden administration has

2:02

proposed the 4 trillion

2:03

plan uh and obviously she kind of

2:06

screwed things up a little bit earlier

2:08

in the day with her comments that hey we

2:10

might see higher rates so

2:11

what do we make of this well in my

2:13

opinion

2:15

i hate to say it but i think there are a

2:17

lot of absolutely clueless people right

2:20

now

2:20

in terms of what the heck is actually

2:22

going to happen with inflation

2:24

and this isn't to call janet yellen

2:26

clueless okay

2:27

i do have some skepticism about uh all

2:30

of

2:30

janet yellen's resources though because

2:33

look she did come out within like the

2:34

first two weeks of her

2:36

being in office talking about how uh how

2:38

many criminals

2:39

use bitcoin and it's like oh my gosh

2:41

this is a

2:42

old news old argument and be wrong it's

2:46

like less criminally used statistically

2:48

than

2:48

cash and it's certainly more trackable

2:51

than cash

2:52

so if anything criminals would be more

2:55

incentivized to use

2:56

cash and fiat cryptocurrency

3:00

so i'm a little skeptical like sometimes

3:02

i'm getting a little worried

3:03

that that janet's uh gonna say some

3:05

things

3:06

potentially without full research but

3:10

i wouldn't be surprised if she's at the

3:12

dinner table these are the conversations

3:13

that are coming out like oh yeah you

3:15

know we'll be raising rates soon now in

3:16

fairness

3:16

jerome powell did say hey look if rates

3:19

if if inflation goes up and we're wrong

3:21

and there is persistent inflation we'll

3:22

raise rates so she's not wrong about

3:24

that

3:25

suspicion i mean jerome powell did in an

3:27

interview with uh sarah eisen

3:29

in front of the imf uh say yeah look

3:31

that that

3:32

is our principal tool our principal tool

3:34

of controlling inflation

3:35

is raising rates so she's not wrong

3:39

about that

3:39

but really what she's doing is adding

3:42

fuel to the fire of all this confusion

3:44

like look if you're gonna speculate

3:46

about what the fed is doing maybe talk

3:48

to jay pal first and go yo jay powell

3:52

why do you think there's gonna be all

3:53

this uh you know lack of persistent

3:55

inflation have a conversation

3:57

and that way next time you get

3:58

interviewed you could say you know

3:59

jerome powell

4:00

uh strongly believes we're not going to

4:02

see persistent inflation

4:03

but you know if he's wrong obviously

4:05

rates would go up to to sort of control

4:07

inflation

4:08

at least i think that's what they would

4:09

do you know that's what i would try to

4:10

say if i were in her shoes

4:11

but oh instead she's like yeah yeah you

4:14

know another four trillion dollars you

4:15

know we gotta be careful with deficits i

4:16

mean we might have to raise rates

4:18

it's like oh janet janet you you just

4:21

you're messing you're messing with the

4:23

markets here you're really screwing

4:24

things up

4:25

but hey you know what in fairness it

4:28

created a buying opportunity went

4:29

shopping today i sent out alerts uh

4:31

like i always do when i go shopping uh

4:33

we'll see if

4:34

the red continues but the reality here

4:36

is all this talk

4:37

from janet yellen it doesn't really

4:39

matter does it

4:40

really matter i mean come on we already

4:43

expect that there's going to be

4:44

persistent inflation i mean look around

4:46

lumber prices commodity prices

4:48

we already expect it the thing that's

4:50

going to rescue this market

4:52

is data proving our expectations

4:56

wrong data coming out saying no there's

4:59

not going to be persist inflation that

5:01

is what is going to solve this

5:03

until that happens we are going to be on

5:04

this roller coaster where literally

5:06

markets get chest pain

5:07

every time somebody even mentions the i

5:09

word yeah

5:11

and in this case it does look like

5:12

there's an eye in team

5:14

i don't know bad jokes magics anyway i

5:16

just didn't want to

5:17

i did want to provide that insight that

5:19

janet yellen did give us a little flippy

5:21

floppy

5:22

tried to walk back her comments uh and

5:24

and sometimes honestly i hate to say it

5:26

but

5:26

you have to be a little bit skeptical

5:27

too like wait did you walk back those

5:29

comments because the market freaked out

5:32

or because you misspoke

5:37
