Bite: Are we heading toward stagflation?

In this bonus clip, economist Brad Olsen unpacks the risk of stagflation, where inflation rises but economic growth stalls and why it's back on the radar. With oil shocks, global uncertainty, and pressure building across the economy, we explore what could trigger it and how today's environment compares to the past.
