    Tariff Talk: Talking the Supreme Court Ruling, Inflation, Jobs and Iran with James Stevenson & Charles Dayton

    James Stevenson and Charles Dayton discuss the recent Supreme Court ruling that struck down Trump's tariffs under IEEPA, exploring alternative tariff mechanisms like Section 122 and Section 301. They examine concerning trends in US economic data, including substantial downward revisions to job creation numbers and questionable inflation calculations that may not reflect consumers' actual experience with rising prices. The conversation also covers potential geopolitical risks, particularly around Iran and the Strait of Hormuz, which could disrupt global oil and LNG flows. Throughout the discussion, they emphasize how these factors could influence Federal Reserve policy and global commodity markets, drawing from their research publication 'Tariff Talk' that covers macroeconomic issues affecting energy and commodity markets.

    Personalized Offers vs. Dynamic Pricing: Winning the Digital Battlefield

    OPIS TALKS DOWNSTREAM: Is the era of the "street sign discount" over? As fuel volumes dip and consumer budgets tighten, the strategy for winning market share has moved from the totem to the smartphone. In this episode, Dr. Thomas Weinandy (Principal Research Economist at Upside) explores why personalized offers now significantly outperform traditional price cuts in driving consumer behavior. He navigates the high-stakes "minefield" of dynamic pricing, revealing the stark reality of how customers actually perceive customized costs—and why 50% of them may be pushing back. As value-seeking becomes the new norm, digital loyalty has emerged as the definitive battlefield for the 2026 economy. Join us as we explain why a retailer's biggest threat isn’t the station down the street—it’s the mobile device already sitting in their customer’s pocket. Have questions or feedback?
