Sometimes the title says it all. Shelter is actually propping up inflation and Chris, Saied and Haroon have the data to prove it.
➡️ Specifically, shelter accounts for approximately 33% of the total CPI and approximately 40% of core inflation. With this much weighting, you can't hit the Fed's 2% target without a decrease in shelter costs.

It's been a while since the boys have had a guest on and they thought why not keep it in the family. Saied's cousin, Weiss Surkhabi, MD and his co-founder, Dr. Sina Arham join us to talk about their journey in building their company "Fridays." Fridays aims to provide patients with weight loss solutions that fit their biology and their budget. They believe in a patient's right to fair and equitable medical treatment to achieve their healthiest weight. Essentially treating obesity as a disease before someone's health deteriorates in to so many of the conditions that tend to develop afterward.
➡️ If you have followed the show, you already know that Chris is a big fan of peptides and what they mean for longevity and preventative care. So naturally it made sense to speak to two subject matter experts on some of the more popular variants and the nuances of how and when they are prescribed. Of course, it wouldn't be The Higher Standard podcast if we didn't get in to the nuances of how the business was started, the challenges that needed to be overcome and the lessons learned along the way.

Okay, look, we admit it. We are a tiny bit older than 20 years-old and sure, that makes us the "old guys." But, it does mean we have lived through some good and bad decisions. Particularly when it comes to investing. Chris, Saied and Haroon open the show by breaking down their most important lessons in investing. Some have lead to big wins and some have lead to big losses. We hope they help you decide whether or not you are will to take the risk and invest on your own.
➡️ After a prolongated trip down memory lane, the boys dive right in to the week's important data and what yo should watch out for, Neel Kashkari is doing Neel Kashkari things again and rental vacancy for apartments is at its highest level in 4 years. Then, just after the hour mark, they pivot to Haroon's pop culture segment which includes all the things you should know from the past week. We got rap beefs, met galas and artificial intelligence.

So many people use Zillow or Redfin to determine the value of their home, but should they? Even if you get a value, how do you have confidence that it is the right one and not skewed by the wrong data? Realtors would tell you to leave it to the professionals, but a fun fact is that Realtors are not licensed to value homes, but rather only to sell them. Chris, Saied and Haroon are going to tell you how to value your home like a licensed real estate appraiser.
➡️ The great real estate professionals use this same methodology when they try to figure out what value to sell your home for or what the offer price should be of a home you are looking to buy. It's time you knew how to do it too.

After many repeated requests, Chris shares his own basic investment strategy that took his personal growth portfolio from $0 to over $1,000,000 with as little oversight as possible. He provides you the names of the low cost index funds he uses, the allocation to each and then explains how he has built his portfolio from there. This is not investment advice; however, it is what he did to create his wealth in the markets and is still what he does today. This strategy will work for the novice investor and for most experts; however, your own risk profile will determine if it is the best strategy for you. The Higher Standard boys, missing Haroon, then turn to the landmark lawsuit settlement by the National Association of Realtors and its potential impacts to the housing market. They dive in to the stock market's wild levels lead by the Magnificent 7 and then cap off the episode with a quick look at the rental housing market with a new found economist.

The boys start the show right off the bat with a commonly asked about mortgage hack that will actually save you a whole lot of money. The problem is that it isn't really something too many people actually do. It requires discipline, planning and making sure your bank applies the payments correctly. The rest of the episode is spent diving in to the Fed and their rate cut paradigm. By all outward measures, the FOMC should take a victory lap in that they have gotten inflation back in line while employment remains strong according to the data. You do know that Chris, Saied and Haroon already don't trust the jobs reports though. Episode 219 of The Higher Standard brings you a lot to think about as far as what may come for the economy and how to plan for your financial future. Also, Chris needs to stop doing drugs, he thinks he can take The Rock.

The boys are off and running with shenanigans from the beginning. Haroon inadvertently opens his energy drink before the show started so he can't entertain you with his usual unnecessary interruptions, but don't worry, he filled his can with water for reasons we still don't fully understand. They spend a good amount of time recapping Jerome Powell's commentary from Jackson Hole, Wyoming which were clearly designed to strike fear in to the markets. One of their favorite economists, Mohamed El-Erian is very concerned that the Fed's actions to date may have 'destroyed the housing market by crushing both supply and demand.' Which was a fantastic segue in to the complete trash nonsense that Zillow is attempting to market. What do you do when home affordability is at an all time low? Rates are rising, home values haven't come down. Well, if you're Zillow, you offer a 1% down payment program to lure in homebuyers so you can sell more leads to Realtors.

In this exhilarating episode 216 of The Higher Standard Podcast, Chris, Saied, and Haroon dive into the the tumultuous tumble of regional bank stocks, led by New York Community Bancorp's dramatic diva moment — cutting dividends and flaunting losses like it's going out of style. But don't let NYCB's solo act fool you; while they're busy singing the blues and getting sued by shareholders for a throwback to their 1997 stock price, Moody’s isn't here for the nostalgia, slapping them with a junk rating faster than you can say "financial meltdown." Meanwhile, Powell plays it cool, promising rate cuts with the enthusiasm of a parent telling their kids they’ll think about getting a puppy.

With this weekly cadence, the boys have a jam packed episode of data and things to challenge your perspective about what's going on in the market. They hit CRE and office prices, the yield curve inversion, corporate debt defaults and even a theoretical Tech Bubble 2.0 discussion. Lots of charts, lots of fun and all The Higher Standard you can handle.

The Higher Standard is back, fresh off their new once a week cadence. It feels equally as weird for Chris, Saied and Haroon. Behind the scenes, our boy Hayden, is getting up to speed on all the editing work. The end goal is to bring you all better content, better shows and better guests. We start off episode 214 with a hard look at the housing market and where it could be going. Chris expresses concerns for the "repo" market and the pressure it may ultimately put on the Fed to cut rates earlier than expected. Then the boys dive in to a long segment on saving and investing your twenties, why that's so important and what you can do to build wealth right now!

This was a sad episode. Reluctantly, the boys have decided to try and change things up a bit by going from two shows a week down to one. Chris, Saied and Haroon are eliminating the Friday episode so that they can focus on improving the quality of content and growing the brand. They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. I guess we are a little crazy. But not as crazy as the CEO who was the most accurate home-price forecaster in 2023. Chris has objections to that stance. The Fed's Raphael Bostic expects rate cuts to happen in the third quarter and Saied is convinced they are trying to scare the economy out of the optimism. And the Biden administration may have actually got something right for once. We are as shocked as you are.

The boys stepped in to the studio a little saucy from an earlier business meeting over steaks and adult beverages. So much so that they forgot to do the introduction of the show. After 20 minutes of a sobriety check, they hop in to a recession discussion pointing out that history is pretty clear that we have not in fact avoided a recession. Although Chris disagreed with an article from The Wall Street Journal, he thought it was worthwhile to share for additional recession perspective. Saied breaks down the massive 2023 economic loss as he take a victory lap for calling it a year in advance. And, despite what you heard, Wall Street is not buying all the homes and driving up home prices. Oh! And Haroon sounds like Grover.
