"The market doesn’t just respond to what the Fed does—it responds to what it thinks the Fed might do." — Maurice Wilson
Welcome to The Wealth Equation Podcast! Hosted by Maurice Wilson, this show delivers weekly insights to help you navigate the world of personal finance, market dynamics, and wealth-building strategies.

In this episode, Maurice breaks down the often confusing language of the Federal Reserve—also known as “Fed Speak.” He explains how central bank communication drives investor behavior, affects interest rates, and shapes the stock market’s direction.
