Is the US Economy Dangerously Dependent on the Rich?
The idea of a “K-shaped economy” has become one of the most persistent themes about the US economy: While some households continue to thrive, in particular the wealthy ones, everyone else falls further behind. On this episode of Trumponomics, host Stephanie Flanders, Moody’s Analytics Chief Economist Mark Zandi and Bloomberg Economics’ Andrew Sacher explore whether that narrative is simply another way of describing that longer-term American phenomenon of inequality — or whether it points to a deeper vulnerability.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Why Is America Turning Against Big Business?
A Gallup poll reported last year that just 15% of Americans said they had a great deal or quite a lot of confidence in big business, a record low. Since then, fear of artificial intelligence has made matters worse. So why is big business increasingly unpopular in Donald Trump's America? What does it tell us about the state of the nation and the long-term strength of the world's largest economy? On this week's Trumponomics, host Stephanie Flanders explores those questions with Bloomberg Opinion global business columnist Adrian Wooldridge. He says the root of this malaise may be a US corporate culture that's shifted from genuine risk-taking entrepreneurship toward a mix of oligarchic tech elites and bloated bureaucracies, fueled by market concentration and declining competition. Later, Flanders and Wooldridge explore whether AI will in turn disrupt these dominant firms or further entrench their power — and what the backlash against tech could mean for politics, capitalism and American democracy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Great Bond Car Wreck — in Slow Motion
Across developed markets, bond markets are staging a slow-motion car wreck. As Opinion columnist and senior markets editor John Authers puts it, the phenomenon is truly global. Authers and Robin J. Brooks, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and former chief economist at the Institute of International Finance, join host Stephanie Flanders to explain why investors have turned sharply against government bonds across the world’s major developed economies — and how the fallout could affect us all.Read John Authers's column here: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/newsletters/2026-05-19/the-great-bond-car-wreck-in-slow-motionAnd find Robin J.

Will the Xi-Trump Summit Be Over Before It Starts?
As a high-stakes Trump–Xi summit looms, tensions over the Iran war and defiance of US sanctions threaten to derail what could be one of the year’s most consequential meetings.

Kevin Warsh Eyes Fed ‘Regime Change’ With Less Talk, New Models
On the day of what could be Jerome Powell’s final Federal Reserve meeting as chair, Trumponomics shifts focus from a largely uneventful near-term outlook for rates to a more consequential question: what comes next under Kevin Warsh, Donald Trump’s pick to lead the central bank. Host Stephanie Flanders is joined by Krishna Guha, Vice Chairman and Head of Economics and Central Bank Strategy at Evercore ISI. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Will Mythos Ruin or Save the Global Financial System?
A new artificial intelligence model blindsided policymakers at meetings of the International Monetary Fund, raising fears of faster, more-sophisticated cyberattacks on the global financial system. But the same technology also is being touted by its builders as the most powerful defense banks could have. On this week’s episode of Trumponomics, host Stephanie Flanders and guests Michael Deng, geoeconomics technology analyst at Bloomberg Economics, and Bloomberg News reporter Laura Noonan break down why Mythos, Anthropic’s most powerful AI model, is sparking both panic and optimism in boardrooms and across governments—and what it means for the security of the global financial system.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How Trump’s Tariffs Plus Iran War May Help US Manufacturing
It’s now been one year since Donald Trump’s sweeping attempt at global tariffs, and the economic fallout has been more nuanced than either critics or supporters predicted. On this episode of the Trumponomics podcast, host Stephanie Flanders speaks with Anna Wong of Bloomberg Economics and Oren Cass of the conservative think tank American Compass about a US economy that, in many respects, has proven unexpectedly resilient. Growth hasn’t collapsed, inflation hasn’t spiked and the president’s April 2025 tariffs (most of which were struck down in February by the Supreme Court) generated substantial federal revenue. The debate now centers on whether it will make a difference when it comes to Trump’s stated goal: reviving US manufacturing.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
