Tariffs, Taxes & Tickers

We delve into the escalating economic challenges facing investors as market volatility intensifies. The OECD has downgraded its U.S. GDP growth forecast for 2025 from 2.2% to 1.6%, citing rising tariffs and policy uncertainty. Trade tensions are straining supply chains and slowing business investment, with inflation expected to hit 4% by year-end. Adding to the unease, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon has warned that soaring debt and deficits could trigger bond market turmoil. This week on TALKENOMICS, David Nelson (Belpointe) and Thomas Hayes (Great Hill Capital) join us to unpack these developments—from taxes and tariffs to market strategy—and offer guidance for navigating today’s turbulent investment climate.
