Wednesday? More like Fed-nesday


The Chief and Kevin O’Neill kick off the show talking about construction projects in Chicago. Spoiler : Chief hates how long they take. But who doesn’t? The Chief brings up this year’s presidential election and more importantly – what foreign countries think of our political race. Hint : it’s not good. Kevin exclaims that he hasn’t seen any Hilary Clinton signs but there seems to be a lot of Hilary voters. Are these people just anti-trump voters?

What can we expect from the Fed decision later today? Finally – Chief asks Kevin -“How do people choose their banks?”

Fari Hamzei of Hamzei Analytics answers Chief’s question – “Where do you get your international news from?” Before talking markets.
