 by Phoenix Capital Research  Tuesday, Oct 06, 2026

In late September, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent brought Judy Shelton into his office as Counselor to the Secretary.  Most of the coverage treated it as a personnel note about a longtime gold advocate.

What Makes The Federal Reserve Decide To Raise Or Lower Interest Rates?

Sep 28, 2026  Economic outlook   Hilarey Gould  Editorial staff, J.P. Morgan Wealth Management

As the United States’ central bank, the Federal Reserve (Fed) exists to promote the overall strength, stability and well-being of the U.S. economy.

Emailed to Recaps~ Thank you David

By Reset Intelligence | @EXIT_FIAT

For about a week one theory has circulated in the dinar community: Iraq lowers the IQD first, deletes the zeros, and only then raises the rate.

This morning the first step happened. Iraq's Council of Ministers approved a new rate and the Central Bank adopted it: 1,500 IQD to the dollar buying from the Finance Ministry, 1,510 selling to the banks and 1,520 selling to the public.

How Wars And Geopolitical Conflicts Can Affect Stock Market Performance

How Wars And Geopolitical Conflicts Can Affect Stock Market Performance: What History Shows And How Investors Can Prepare For Volatility

Sep 29, 2026  Sergei Klebnikov Editorial Staff, J.P. Morgan Wealth Management
