What's Behind the Federal Reserve's Next Move?
In episode 224, Quinton Harris takes a stand against misconceptions about his podcast's purpose, emphasizing its educational nature rather than being a lead generation platform. He explains the extensive methodology behind their market forecasts, drawing from multiple reliable data sources including NAR, MLS, MBS Highway, and others, to provide clarity in a landscape often muddied by sensational headlines.
The episode dives into recent economic indicators, particularly focusing on the CPI and PPI reports, and their implications for Federal Reserve policy.

What's Really Behind Your Mortgage Rate?
In episode 223, Quinton Harris breaks down the fundamental components that determine mortgage rates, addressing common questions from his audience about terms like "the spread" and "10-year treasury." He explains how mortgage rates are calculated by combining the base rate (10-year treasury) with the spread, which represents the premium investors require for taking on mortgage-backed securities risk.
The episode delves deep into why current spreads are higher than historical norms, examining factors like increased origination costs, compliance requirements, and market volatility. Quinton emphasizes how consistency in rates could transform the real estate market, suggesting that even a steady 6% rate over four months could significantly boost both home sales and refinancing activity.

The discussion takes a concerning turn as Quinton analyzes recent Federal Reserve data showing alarming trends in consumer credit. With credit card rejection rates reaching historic highs and 45% of credit limit increase requests being denied, he challenges the media's portrayal of heavy consumer spending as a sign of economic strength, instead pointing to these indicators as potential warning signs of economic stress.

Will the Federal Reserve's next move be influenced by the questionable BLS jobs report?
In episode 205, we dive deep into the latest Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) jobs report, uncovering the numbers that could significantly impact the Federal Reserve's decision-making process. Quinton analyzes the surprising surge in government jobs, the discrepancy between reported and calculated unemployment rates, and the record-breaking number of multiple job holders.
This episode covers the potential political implications of these job numbers, especially in the context of the upcoming election. Quinton questions the accuracy of the reported 4.1% unemployment rate, suggesting that a more realistic figure could be 4.5% when accounting for average government job creation. He also highlights the concerning trend of part-time jobs dominating the market and the creation of 69,000 new bartender positions, questioning the strength these numbers truly represent in the economy.
