Can The Holiday Consumer Push The Market To New All Time Highs Or Have Peaked? | Money Moves Nov 26, 2025

Show notes

In this Thanksgiving-week episode of Money Moves, Matty and Ryan break down the short trading week, early retail numbers, and the critical role the holiday consumer will play in determining whether the market surges to new all-time highs—or whether we’ve already topped out.

They dive into the early indicators: in-store bodies, doorbuster traffic, Black Friday predictions, technical market strength, and the shifting probability of a December rate cut. Ryan explains why current technicals are flashing a “strong buy,” why oscillators are turning bullish, and how recent market dips gave disciplined investors an opportunity to position ahead of a potential Santa Claus rally.

The conversation expands into consumer spending strength, housing affordability, rising delinquencies, the impact of mortgage rates, food inflation, credit card debt, and broader macro risks that could either support or threaten a market breakout. Matty and Ryan close with their expectations for Black Friday/Cyber Monday data—and how those numbers could dictate market momentum into 2026.

If you're trying to understand where the market goes next, this episode offers a grounded, data-driven roadmap heading into the biggest shopping week of the year.

50 Year Mortgages, The Rise of Socialism, and The Impacts On The Economy and Stock Market As The Government Reopens | Money Moves Nov 12, 2025

Show notes

In this week’s episode of Money Moves, Matty A. and Ryan Breedwell dives into one of the most critical and thought-provoking discussions of the year — how long-term debt, political ideology, and government policy are reshaping the American economy.

With the government reopening and the markets reacting to a flood of new data, Matty breaks down the growing debate around 50-year mortgages, the rise of socialist-leaning policies, and what both mean for the future of capitalism, entrepreneurship, and personal wealth.

He explores how expanding debt horizons could trap future generations, why entitlement culture threatens productivity, and how investors can navigate this shifting landscape of policy-driven markets. Beyond economics, Matty also reflects on mindset — how to stay empowered, self-reliant, and financially free in an era where dependency is being normalized.

Episode Highlights:

[00:01:00] The government reopens — what it means for markets and investor sentiment
[00:04:30] 50-year mortgages — financial innovation or long-term debt trap?
[00:09:45] The rise of socialism — economic implications and investor concerns
[00:14:30] Capitalism vs. dependency — how culture shapes financial freedom
[00:18:40] The real impact of government stimulus and debt expansion
[00:23:10] How investors can protect themselves from policy-driven volatility
[00:28:00] The long-term mindset — taking ownership of your wealth journey

Episode Takeaways:

50-year mortgages may offer affordability today but risk trapping future generations in permanent debt.
Socialist-style policies create short-term relief but erode productivity, innovation, and long-term growth.
Markets respond to stability, not politics — investors who stay long-term focused outperform the emotional majority.
Financial independence is a mindset. You can’t rely on the government to make you wealthy — only discipline, ownership, and action can.
