Trump Isn't the Only Reason the Price of Money Is Rising - Trumponomics
Sep 11, 2025 Trumponomics
Why is the price of money rising and what does US President Donald Trump have to do with it? Stephanie Flanders is joined by Bloomberg Economics' Jamie Rush and Tom Orlik to explore the global forces driving up interest rates, from defense spending to deglobalization, and what higher borrowing costs mean for governments, businesses and households.
Tariffs, crypto, deregulation, tax cuts, protectionism, are just some of the things back on the table when Donald Trump returns to the Presidency. To help you plan for Trump's singular approach to economics, Bloomberg presents Trumponomics, a weekly podcast focused on the Trump administration's economic policies and plans. Editorial head of government and economics Stephanie Flanders will be joined each week by reporters in Washington D.C. and Wall Street to examine how Trump's policies are shaping the global economy and what on earth is going to happen next.
