The Fed just cut interest rates by 0.25% — but what does that actually mean for you, your portfolio, and the broader economy? In this episode, we dig into the ripple effects of rate cuts across consumers, businesses, and markets.

✔️ Will your mortgage or credit card get cheaper?
✔️ How will BDCs, REITs, and growth stocks react?
✔️ Why a weaker dollar could make your life more expensive, not less.
✔️ The hidden inflation risk no one’s talking about.

We’ll also break down how small, “modest” cuts like this rarely deliver instant wins — and why in the current environment, the cons may outweigh the pros.

If you’re trying to understand how rate cuts really play out (beyond the headlines), this episode is for you.
