  • When Markets Talk, the Bond Market Speaks Loudest

    When Markets Talk, the Bond Market Speaks Loudest
    May 8 2025
    The last several weeks have seen unusual market volatility, not just in the stock market but in the bond market as well. Fixed income investors have been struggling to make sense of the on-again, off-again tariff policy and its impact on the U.S. economy. In this episode, host Mike Townsend welcomes Collin Martin, director and fixed income strategist at the Schwab Center for Financial Research, for a robust discussion about how tariffs are impacting the bond market, companies, the economy, and the Federal Reserve's monetary policy decisions. Collin shares his perspective on where the Fed might be headed and whether the president's threats to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell are undermining its independence. They also discuss the dollar and whether its position as the world's reserve currency is in jeopardy. And Collin offers his thoughts on where fixed income investors can find opportunities in this uncertain environment.In addition, Mike provides updates from Washington on the ongoing negotiations around the massive budget bill of tax and spending cuts and the president's recent proposal for government funding for the coming fiscal year, and he reflects on the 50th anniversary of a regulatory decision that paved the way for the accessible markets that investors enjoy today.WashingtonWise is an original podcast for investors from Charles Schwab.

  • China Trade War: A Fight With No Winners

    China Trade War: A Fight With No Winners
    Apr 24 2025
    China and the United States are locked in an unprecedented trade war, with each imposing tariffs of more than 100% on the other’s imports. On this episode of WashingtonWise, host Mike Townsend is joined by Jeffrey Kleintop, Schwab’s chief global investment strategist, for an in-depth discussion of the trade war’s implications for investors, companies, consumers, and the economies of both countries. They discuss which parts of the U.S. economy are likely to be most affected, how quickly companies can relocate production and supply lines, and whether the goal of moving manufacturing back to the United States is achievable. They also touch on how China is avoiding tariffs, the implications for Taiwan’s critically important semiconductor production, and whether there is an endgame that allows both countries to declare victory. And Jeff shares his insights on where global investors can find opportunities.Mike also provides updates on the challenges that await Congress as lawmakers move to the next stage of crafting a massive bill of tax cuts and spending cuts, the latest on the debt ceiling deadline, and the escalating tensions between President Trump and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell over interest rates and economic policy.WashingtonWise is an original podcast for investors from Charles Schwab.
