Markets surged last week on the heels of positive trade negotiations, strong inflation data, and resilient employment numbers. But as we begin a new week, a shadow looms: Moody’s has officially downgraded U.S. government debt. What does this mean for the markets, the economy, and for everyday investors?

In today’s episode of Life in the Markets, Tim Russell breaks down:

• Why large-cap stocks soared while small-cap companies struggled
• What the latest inflation numbers are really telling us
• The implications of the U.S. credit rating downgrade—and why it may not be as bad as it seems

Plus, Tim offers encouragement from Philippians 4, reminding us that contentment isn’t tied to market swings or economic headlines but to the strength found in Christ.
