Full Employment, Failing Banks

Moody's Talks - Inside Economics - A podcast by Moody's Analytics - Fridays

Categories:

It's another Jobs' Friday and colleague Dante DeAntonio is here to discuss February's employment report. Wage growth is moderating and the unemployment rate ticked up, but labor supply among prime age workers reached a post-pandemic high--is that enough evidence to say we are at full employment? Also on the agenda is discussing the failure of Silicon Valley Bank, the 2nd largest bank collapse in U.S. History. We are already seeing the disruption in financial markets but what does it mean for the broader economy?
