The Fed cuts rates, America's FICO dips, and forever ends for sweepstakes winners

This episode of The Indicator from Planet Money discusses three key indicators from the week: the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut and the dissenting vote by a Trump appointee, a decline in the national average FICO credit score due to rising student loan and other delinquencies, and the potential financial hardship faced by Publishers Clearing House sweepstakes winners due to the company's bankruptcy and the new owner's refusal to honor lifetime prizes. The episode blends factual reporting with analysis of the implications of these economic events.
