The Producer Price Index just jumped to 6% and Paul Musson says it’s no accident. This episode breaks down how energy driven supply shocks, money supply expansion, and policy engineered asset inflation have created a fake wealth effect that benefits the top 1% while leaving Main Street squeezed. We cover why today’s inflation is different from 2022, how central banks distort markets, why housing is frozen, and why real interest rates should be set by markets not policymakers. Topics include: • The new 6% PPI surge and the energy shock tied to conflict near the Strait of Hormuz • Why central banks shouldn’t hike rates to fight pure supply shocks • How 2022 inflation was driven by rapid money printing and stimulus • The widening gap between Wall Street and Main Street • Housing affordability collapse and a frozen market with more sellers than buyers • Record debt, declining consumer sentiment, and the illusion of rising wealth • Why Paul calls for market‑determined rates and no Wall Street bailouts 00:00 Fake Housing Wealth 01:19 PPI Shock And War 02:47 Supply Shock vs 2022 Inflation 04:20 Money Printing And Main Street 06:35 K‑Shaped Economy Disconnect 08:30 Fed Distorts Markets 10:53 Insider Trading And “Hillionaires” 12:12 Housing Affordability Crisis 14:16 Why Home Prices Soared 17:14 Rate Normalization & No Bailouts 19:33 Frozen Market And Price Reality 23:43 History, Urbanization & Wrap‑Up 25:08 Paul’s Blog, Book & Farewell Contact Paul:https://x.com/pauliticalbloghttps://pauliticaleconomy.com/about/https://pauliticaleconomy.com/capital-offence-book-paul-musson-economic-policy-inequality-money-management-financial-intelligenc/https://www.linkedin.com/company/pauliticaleconomy/?originalSubdomain=ca.https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Capital-Offence/Paul-Musson/9781917458047https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulbmusson/Contact usbuy our booksComing soon Catastrophe investing https://a.co/d/iTv3V1Phttps://a.co/d/3yEE6mhhttps://a.co/d/9wJ7sXhContact us:Piggostradingdesk.comTony: Whitelavender92Derek: Diablo_blanco-3Substack: Piggos trading deskRead our work:https://substack.com/@piggostradingdeskEmail: piggostradingdesk@gmail.com
