UMP Episode 15: How Demographics Are Impacting The Economy with Eric Basmajian

In this episode, we are joined by Eric Basmajian, the founder of EPB Research. Eric is an economic cycle analyst providing research on long-term and short-term trends in growth and inflation. With a degree in economics and experience at a quantitative hedge fund, Eric has developed a unique secular and cyclical framework to forecast major economic inflection points and the resulting impact on asset prices.During the episode, we discuss what has happened to the middle class over the recent decades. As we learn, this is a very complex topic with several nuances, and is not going to be an easy fix for policymakers. We discuss how economic growth, demographics, and governmental policy, are interconnected creating a feedback loop with the middle class caught in the middle.FOLLOW:- Eric's Twitter: https://twitter.com/EPBResearch- EPB Research: https://epbresearch.com/- Eric's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EPBResearch- Understanding Macro Twitter: https://twitter.com/UMacroPodcast - Understanding Macro Website: https://www.understandingmacro.com/ About The Show: Welcome to the Understanding Macro Podcast, where we explore the intersection of technology, macroeconomics and financial markets.
