MoneyMasters Podcast 🎙️ 8/28/25: Who's in Charge of Our Economy (if NOT the Fed)?

Mike Larson | Editor-in-Chief

In this episode of the MoneyShow MoneyMasters Podcast, Lyn Alden Schwartzer, founder of Lyn Alden Investment Strategy and contributing analyst to ElliottWaveTrader.net, discusses fiscal dominance — the rising influence of government deficits and spending over central banks on markets and inflation. She explains how this shift creates a hotter, less cyclical economic environment and what it means for investors navigating these changes in 2025.

Lyn also shares insights on the surge in precious metals, Bitcoin, and foreign markets, offers a cautious outlook on US equities, and highlights the evolving impact of AI on the economy. This episode provides a clear, systems-based view to help listeners understand and adapt to today’s complex financial landscape.
