J Scott Explains Inflation, Interest Rates & the Economy

What is happening with inflation, interest rates, energy prices, and the economy, and what does it mean for investors? In this episode of the BiggerPockets Money Podcast, Mindy Jensen and Scott Trench welcome back J Scott to break down the current economic landscape and explain how inflation, Federal Reserve policy, energy costs, housing, interest rates, money supply, and geopolitical events can affect your finances and investments. 

They discuss why inflation still feels high, how rising energy prices impact the broader economy, why mortgage and borrowing costs can remain elevated, and whether investors should change their portfolios in response.
