Distorted Jobs, Structural Limits & Global Edge — Eric Pachman on the Hidden Economy

In this episode of The Money Path, ⁠Todd Schoenberger⁠ sits down with ⁠Eric Pachman⁠, Chief Analytics Officer at ⁠Bancreek Capital Advisors⁠, to pull back the veil on what the U.S. labor market really looks like — and why many headline numbers are misleading.

Eric argues that the healthcare & social assistance sector acts like a distorted “green box” in employment data, masking weakness elsewhere. He shares early signs of layoffs tied to future Medicaid cuts, and warns that without this sector, many industries are already in recession territory.

We also dig into:

• How professional & business services have driven most of the job gains despite being a small slice of employment

• The structural limits constraining the Fed’s policy tool chest in the face of deep sectoral imbalances

• Immigration’s role in sustaining labor supply as participation rates decline

• The long-term fallout from declining birth rates on education and soft skills

• Bancreek’s ETF approach: how they build quantitative models to identify companies with “institutional endurance”

• Why international equities may offer better risk/reward now — and how their BCUS (U.S.) and BCIL (Intl) funds aim to deliver

Whether you’re a macro investor, advisor, or data nerd, this episode unpacks the hidden dynamics behind the headlines and surfaces where real opportunity may lie.

The Money Path: Sam Stovall’s Q3 Earnings & Bull Market Outlook — What to Watch in Q4

On this episode of The Money Path, ⁠Todd Schoenberger⁠ sits down with ⁠Sam Stovall⁠, Chief Investment Strategist at ⁠CFRA Research⁠, for a deep dive into where the market is headed. While recent Federal Reserve rate cuts and solid economic signals have pushed stocks to new records, Stovall cautions that no bull run lasts forever — and Q4 may test that strength.

We cover:

• What upcoming Q3 earnings from big banks like JP Morgan, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America could reveal about economic resilience.

• The historical performance of Q4, where traditionally the S&P 500 has posted gains ~80% of the time, and how small caps, technology, and financials may stand out.

• Why valuations are raising eyebrows — especially with earnings growth already priced in. Analysts from UBS and others are forecasting robust earnings, but they warn selectivity is essential.

• Market risk indicators: with rising inflation signals, persistent labor constraints, and a Fed that may cut less aggressively than markets hope. Morgan Stanley strategists recently warned the bull could falter without a quicker Fed pivot.

Key takeaways from Stovall:

“We’re in a strong market, no question — but October is historically the most volatile month. Earnings and job data will decide how much steam is left.”

WealthWise: Is the Russell 2000 Forming a Double Top? Mish Schneider on Small Caps, Triple Witching & What’s Ahead

Join ⁠WealthWise with Jeffrey Hirsch⁠ live with ⁠Mish Schneider⁠, Chief Strategist at ⁠MarketGauge.com⁠, as they unpack some of the most pressing market patterns and risks right now.

Highlights include:

• The Russell 2000 recently hit highs comparable to November 2024, prompting talk of a double top formation. While momentum has pushed small-caps higher in recent weeks, Mish warns this pattern could signal resistance ahead unless confirmed.

• All four major U.S. indices — Russell 2000, S&P 500, Nasdaq, and the Dow — just closed at record highs together, a rare alignment since November 2021. What does this broad strength mean if the Russell 2000 can’t break above its resistance zone?

• Sector performance under the microscope: regional banks, transports, energy. Are rate cuts enough to power small caps next, or will they lag behind larger, more rate-sensitive names?

• Upcoming Triple Witching Friday looms large: with over $5 trillion in options, index, and futures contracts set to expire, some traders expect volatile action. We discuss whether this volume will translate into sharp swings or if markets will digest it quietly.

Mish also shares her favorite setups, what chart signals she’s watching closely, and how she balances risk when patterns look extended.

Don’t miss it — this is essential if you trade or invest around small caps, rate cuts, or technical triggers. ⁠Subscribe to CrossCheck Media on YouTube⁠ to catch Mish’s full technical breakdowns live.

Tune in: The Trader’s Code goes live today with ⁠Danielle Shay⁠ and ⁠Fibonacci Princess⁠ (of ElliottWaveTrader.net) digging into high-probability chart setups, risk management, and how to trade what you see — especially ahead of the Fed meeting and potential volatility.

In this episode:

• Fibonacci Princess walks us through real chart analysis: Tesla resistance around $422-426, support zones near $400, and setups in BMNR, Microsoft, and OKLO.

• She emphasizes locking in profits and using trailing stops — especially now that many stocks have run hard.

• Market sentiment is stretched. TSLA just broke out of a symmetrical triangle, but key resistance and overbought momentum warn of possible pullbacks.

• Broader backdrop: The Fed just cut rates by 25 bps, and markets expect more easing by year-end. However, despite the rate cut, analysts warn of a “sell the news” reaction as much of this has already been priced in.

🎧 If you're listening in audio, don’t miss the charts! The ⁠video version⁠ (YouTube & Spotify) shows every line, setup, and target Danielle & Fibonacci Princess use live.

Live on The Money Path, host ⁠Todd Schoenberger⁠ sits down with ⁠José Torres⁠, Senior Economist at Interactive Brokers (IBKR) to parse today’s Federal Reserve decision and what’s ahead.

Highlights include:

• The Fed cuts interest rates by 25 basis points — largely expected — with only one dissenter (Stephen Miran), and expectations for two more cuts by year-end. (Market watchers like Morgan Stanley now expect cuts at all three remaining meetings.)

• August job growth came in weak (around +22,000 jobs), and June was revised to show job losses — a signal that the labor market is cooling. Torres discusses how these data revisions factor into the Fed’s thinking on cuts and accommodation.

• Chair Powell’s upcoming press conference is likely to feature a neutral strategy, balancing assurances of policy independence amidst political pressure, and emphasizing incoming economic data over speculation. (Recent reports confirm Powell explicitly stating there is “no big push for a larger rate cut” beyond 25 bps.)

• Sector implications: real estate and small businesses may need relief; inflation-tariff interplay; what falling rates could mean for growth stocks, interest-sensitive sectors, and long-term rates.

TODAY on The Money Path, host ⁠Todd Schoenberger⁠ welcomes ⁠Jed Ellerbroek⁠, CFA, Portfolio Manager at ⁠Argent Capital Management⁠, for a deep dive into what’s driving markets now — and what could power the next leg higher.

What you’ll hear:

• Investment themes that matter: AI infrastructure, hyperscaler businesses, aerospace & defense, and alternative investment managers. Jed shares why he’s bullish on names like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, NVIDIA, Broadcom, plus software/data plays such as ServiceNow, Tyler Technologies, and Intuit.

• Fed rate cut expectations are high: Jed anticipates a 25 basis point cut today, with 2–3 more cuts through year-end. He discusses how much of that is priced in — and when the dot plot (and Powell’s messaging) might shift the narrative.

• AI remains the primary growth engine. Infrastructure platforms are leading, while software & device plays are still playing catch-up. Jed explains which segments may catch fire in 2026-27.

• Economy in contrast: tailwinds from recent tax bills and high spending at the top, but inflation, tariffs, and uneven consumer strength are creating a “two-speed” dynamic.

Recent context to keep in mind: inflation data reported this morning came in slightly under forecasts, adding fuel to Fed cut bets; Amazon’s latest guidance showed strong AI demand, and Broadcom announced expanded chip infrastructure initiatives to support hyperscaler growth.
