In a special edition of the Odd Lots podcast, Tracy Alloway and Joe Weisenthal follow Mary Daly, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, on her expedition to Anchorage, Alaska, to understand the U.S. economy better. Daly visits local businesses like Northern Solutions, an oil industry component manufacturer, and the Port of Alaska, to learn about the challenges they face, such as tariffs, supply chain issues, and the high cost of living. The podcast highlights how Alaska's unique circumstances amplify economic trends, making it a bellwether for the rest of the United States, and how Daly uses these insights to inform her policy recommendations at FOMC meetings.
