Torsten walks through the K-shaped economy in detail, explaining why the top third of American consumers are doing fine while the bottom two-thirds are under severe and growing stress. They also discuss the Fed's impossible position, why Jerome Powell is unlikely to cut rates anytime soon, and what a slowdown in AI spending would mean for an economy that has become singularly dependent on it. 00:00 - Intro 01:30 - The Health & State of the US Economy 05:45 - The Fed Are Not Going to Cut Rates 07:56 - The AI Story is Dramatically Changing 14:00 - The K-Shaped Economy 22:02 - Private Credit 30:04 - Employment, AI, & Europe 41:25 - The U.S. Deficit 48:33 - China 49:47 - The Biggest Risks in the Market 53:15 - Outro Subscribe 👉🏻https://www.youtube.com/@RealEismanPlaybook?sub_confirmation=1 Connect with Steve Eisman and access all things The Eisman Playbook: 🌐 https://linktr.ee/realeismanplaybook → Follow on socials, watch episodes, and get the latest updates — all in one place.
