Markets can recover from a headline. Can your portfolio withstand the economic shifts behind it?

Rebecca Walser joins Paul Barron to examine how oil prices, persistent inflation, geopolitical disruptions, and the AI investment boom are shaping the outlook for stocks, gold, and digital assets.
They explore the tension between market resilience and economic uncertainty: Can earnings and AI investment sustain growth? How much relief could lower energy prices deliver? And where does lasting wealth come from when purchasing power remains under pressure?

Rebecca also shares her case for gold, while the conversation explores tokenized assets, DeFi, and the factors that could drive the next rotation into digital assets.

In this episode:
• How oil and gasoline prices flow through to inflation
• Why geopolitical disruptions can outlast the initial market reaction
• What consumer spending and corporate earnings reveal about economic resilience
• How AI could influence growth, sector leadership, and market cycles
• The evolving role of gold, crypto, and tokenized assets
• How to approach asset allocation and risk in uncertain markets
