Quotes:

“Because of its populism and people are getting left behind, and there’s a lot of social angst, the country is moving to extremes in both directions—depending on who they follow or who their leaders are. For a lot of people, both sides were taking it a little too far for their comfort level, and markets like certainty.” – Frances Newton Stacy

“We statistically still don’t know how many Americans are falling through the cracks because you don’t know how many Americans are going to actually starve to death. We have the eviction moratorium expiring in December. We have the extended unemployment benefits expiring in December.” – Frances Newton Stacy

“We’re not going to be able to service all of that debt if interest rates are moving higher, and that’s the reason that the FED would come in with yield curve control is because they would foresee the deflationary challenge coming from defaults if interest rates went up too far, too fast.” – Frances Newton Stacy

“I don’t know if some of the more progressive parts of the Democratic Party—if they should come into power—what their spending will look like around that issue and how they think about that issue versus how the moderates think about that issue. But I’m hoping that common sense prevails.” – Frances Newton Stacy

“It’s just hard. It’s just hard to not go from one room to the other and sound very political because that is what people understand, that’s the language that they speak, and that’s the culture that we’re living in. It’s tough.” – Frances Newton Stacy
