Why we might not see tariffs in overall inflation...

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/07/14

This week, we get a few snapshots of what inflation is doing. Everyone wants to know when tariffs will start showing up in the overall data, because they mostly haven't yet, partly due to the Federal Reserve's tight monetary policy. But that doesn't mean tariffs aren't affecting the economy. We'll discuss. Also: how Europe is trying to keep U.S. trade tensions from boiling over, and where copper imports are being diverted ahead of looming tariffs.

The Supreme Court delves into campaign finance again

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/07/04

Changes in the interpretation of campaign finance law could be on the horizon. It's been 15 years since the high court decided that corporations and unions can give unlimited amounts of money to candidates. But political parties have to work within separate limits when it's money used in tandem by the party and the candidate. Also on the show: the state of news consumption in the U.S. and a new approach to homeless encampments in Northern California.

The Big Beautiful Bill scrapes through

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/07/04

From the BBC World Service: President Trump’s so-called One Big Beautiful Bill, has squeaked through Congress. It boosts military and border spending and extends Trump-era tax cuts, but makes deep cuts to healthcare and food aid. Saturday marks a year in office for the Labour Party in the UK, so what’s the economic verdict of the past 52 weeks? And it's been 10 years since Ireland became the first country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage by popular vote, and same-sex couples are

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/07/03

The government reported today that 147,000 more people were on payrolls in June compared to May — a stronger outcome than initially forecasted. This data comes despite all the tariff-related uncertainty that many business execs have been speaking about lately. We’ll discuss. Plus, AI scraping could fundamentally break the business model of the internet, and an oasis of merch and pop-up stores is appearing ahead of the Oasis reunion tour kick-off.

How flood-damaged businesses in Asheville are rebuilding

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/07/03

Rebuilding a business after a natural disaster can be slow and arduous. That’s certainly the case in Asheville, North Carolina, where Hurricane Helene engulfed hundreds of structures in mud, water and debris last fall. In some parts of the city, damage was so severe that many businesses won't rebuild. Others, however, believe it’s worth the risk and are rebuilding with resilience in mind. But first: a U.S. trade deal with Vietnam, and resumed semiconductor chip business with China.

Then, seen as a safe-haven, platinum has been riding high recently. Last week, it climbed above $1,400 per troy ounce for the first time since September 2014. And the long-awaited Oasis reunion tour kicks off in Wales on Friday. We'll check out the merch economy.

No tax on Social Security? Not quite.

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/07/02

The House of Representatives could vote as soon as today on President Donald Trump’s big tax and spending bill. Trump says the legislation gets rid of taxes on Social Security benefits, but it’s not quite that simple. We'll unpack. Then, we’ll discuss this morning’s surprisingly weak private payroll data. And, we'll travel to London ahead of the city's Pride festival, which has been hit by declining corporate sponsorship.

Employers and workers wait and see

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/07/02

An ADP report providing a reading on the strength of the job market comes out today. Meanwhile, another measure shows the labor market treading water: job churn. Do we have the confidence to leave and take a different job? Amid continued economic uncertainty, many workers seem to be staying put, and employers seem hesitant to let workers go. Also on the show: the financial burden of deployment for military families.

A fresh deal on the future of critical minerals

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/07/02

From the BBC World Service: Australia, India, Japan, and the U.S. have launched a new push to secure supplies of critical minerals, especially the "rare earths" used in many tech products. Pride events in both the U.S. and the United Kingdom have been hit by falling corporate sponsorship. What effect will this have on events? Plus, the Australian airline Qantas says it's investigating a data breach, although it insists flights won’t be impacted.

The costs of aging in place

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/07/01

Surveys consistently show people want to age in their current home. Yet homeownership is costly for older adults of modest means, especially those still paying off their mortgage and living on fixed incomes. That hardship can be exacerbated, too, by additional medical or disability needs. We'll hear more as part of our Buy Now Pay Later project, produced in partnership with Next Avenue, a nonprofit news platform for older adults produced by Twin Cities PBS. But first: The Senate is coming

Where the big tax cut and spending bill stands

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/07/01

As part of the rules of reconciliation — which is what's letting the GOP pass its bill without Democratic votes — Senators can offer unlimited amendments. But the debate on each one is around 10 minutes. This gives senators a chance to change components of the bill, but it's also being used as a messaging tool to highlight policies some Senators feel are harmful. Also: a down dollar and a breakthrough in EV batteries.

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/06/30

The GOP bill in Congress could make sweeping changes to Medicaid, the joint federal-state health insurance program for 70 million low-income people and people with disabilities. North Carolina recently expanded coverage for an additional 660,000 people. There, it's been a "lifeline" for some rural areas and injected federal dollars into the state’s economy. We’ll hear what’s at stake with federal cuts. But first: the disconnect between "an economy that's slowing down and a stock market

How the Supreme Court ruling on nationwide...

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/06/30

One of the Supreme Court decisions released Friday limits the circumstances under which courts can issue nationwide injunctions. While the case was about the executive order related to birthright citizenship, it has consequences for consumers and businesses alike. We'll unpack how the decision may reshape things like class-action lawsuits. But first: The Supreme Court weighs in on Obamacare (again), and travelers opt for more cost-effective "destination dupes."

Marketplace Morning Report ·

2025/06/27

If doctors can catch breast cancer early enough, the chances of survival are about 90%. In order to catch it early enough, women over the age of 40 usually get annual mammograms, paid for by their health insurance. Roughly half of those women have dense breast tissue that requires additional screenings, however, which aren’t always covered by insurance. Also: a record-high stock market and the state of the economy surrounding the Strait of Hormuz.
