Federal reserve less likely to cut interest rates and in some
00:07:27.928 --> 00:07:31.431
Cut interest rates and in some cases could raise them.
00:07:31.565 --> 00:07:32.032

Hovering near multi-year highs. >> oil prices key input in all
00:07:36.603 --> 00:07:39.606
>> oil prices key input in all of this because oil touches so
00:07:39.739 --> 00:07:40.373
Of this because oil touches so many aspects of the economy.
00:07:40.507 --> 00:07:43.677
Many aspects of the economy. obviously what we put in our
00:07:43.810 --> 00:07:44.578
Obviously what we put in our cars travel these are some of
00:07:44.711 --> 00:07:47.447
Cars travel these are some of the direct impacts but there
00:07:47.581 --> 00:07:48.148
The direct impacts but there are a lot of indirect impacts
00:07:48.281 --> 00:07:51.251
Are a lot of indirect impacts really transporting goods from

00:07:52.118 --> 00:07:55.188
Point a to point b throughout the supply chain.
00:07:55.322 --> 00:07:55.722
The supply chain. higher oil prices can really
00:07:55.855 --> 00:07:59.059

And then when inflation is higher?
00:08:03.430 --> 00:08:03.630
Higher? of course the fed needs to keep
00:08:03.763 --> 00:08:04.397
Of course the fed needs to keep rates higher to try to down on
00:08:04.531 --> 00:08:06.833
Rates higher to try to down on that but it just has ripple
00:08:06.967 --> 00:08:07.601
That but it just has ripple effects throughout began
00:08:07.734 --> 00:08:10.837
Effects throughout began reacting to the warfare in iran
00:08:10.971 --> 00:08:11.605
Reacting to the warfare in iran right from the start prices
00:08:11.738 --> 00:08:14.240
Right from the start prices pushed up government bond
00:08:14.374 --> 00:08:14.908
Pushed up government bond yields.
00:08:15.041 --> 00:08:15.241
Yields. the key.
00:08:15.375 --> 00:08:18.244
The key. the key driver of mortgage
00:08:18.378 --> 00:08:18.945
The key driver of mortgage rates making borrowing more
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:19.646

A feeling there was a feeling that maybe it could go as low
00:08:50.410 --> 00:08:51.011
That maybe it could go as low as about five and a half and
00:08:51.144 --> 00:08:51.711
As about five and a half and that that would spur would spur
00:08:51.845 --> 00:08:54.047

Or car car loans, credit card rates, things like that,
00:09:01.821 --> 00:09:02.322
Rates, things like that, borrowing could remain costlier
00:09:02.455 --> 00:09:05.325

Fear because god is near. i don't think i realized it in
00:25:31.326 --> 00:25:31.993
I don't think i realized it in the moment but looking back on
00:25:32.126 --> 00:25:34.629
The moment but looking back on it that's probably the first

00:25:36.164 --> 00:25:36.497
Writing songs. you've touched on your faith
00:25:37.699 --> 00:25:38.399
You've touched on your faith but how has your faith really
00:25:38.533 --> 00:25:41.769
But how has your faith really who you are within your music
00:25:41.903 --> 00:25:42.537
Who you are within your music but also outside of.
00:25:42.670 --> 00:25:45.673
But also outside of. to a lot of really cool
00:25:45.807 --> 00:25:46.441
To a lot of really cool opportunities that have come to
00:25:46.574 --> 00:25:47.242
Opportunities that have come to the table that i've really
00:25:47.375 --> 00:25:49.978

00:25:53.281 --> 00:25:53.982
The direction god wants me to go in me to go in but i
00:25:54.115 --> 00:25:57.685

Some friendships that have come and gone because of my faith
00:26:15.236 --> 00:26:18.273
And gone because of my faith and now i feel like i'm kind of
00:26:18.406 --> 00:26:19.340
