Dennis Hoffman with the Williams Research Institute at the W.P. Carey School of Business, is an expert in the growth of the semiconductor industry in the Phoenix economy. He joins FOX 10 talks to discuss how the region has transitioned into a prominent leader in the semiconductor game following the introduction of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, which builds upon a long-standing relationship that local communities share with Intel. The historical roots of this tech ecosystem trace back to 1948 when Motorola established research operations in the area with an eye to sell to the military. The emergence of this economic hub resulted from a collaborative effort spanning roughly 15 years to come to the fore, starting with initial visits and groundwork planted during the Brewer administration. A large consortium involving the business community, governors, tax incentives, and the education community—including ASU President Michael Crow working to demonstrate engineering capabilities—helped secure the operations. This growth is significantly impacting economic development in the West Valley, where rapidly increasing job opportunities are shifting traditional traffic patterns that previously forced residents to drive west to east for employment every morning.

The economy is seeing a fresh surge in inflation as the new Consumer Price Index shows prices rising 4.2% annually in May, marking the highest level seen in three years. Financial expert Matt Shultz joined FOX 10 Talks to break down the numbers and discuss how the ongoing increases affect everyday consumers and businesses alike. While rising gas prices over the last couple months are driving a significant portion of the inflation, a variety of other factors, including supply chain issues and domestic cattle availability affecting grocery items like beef, ground beef, and steak, are contributing to the widespread economic strain. The impact of inflation is being felt harder today than it was six months or a year ago, extending beyond consumers to hit businesses that face higher operational and production costs. While the war in Iran is a major mitigating factor driving up energy costs, history shows that economic shifts also ebb and flow based on diverse disruptions ranging from past outbreaks of the bird flu to global supply chain challenges. In response to the uncertainty, Shultz noted that the Federal Reserve may hike interest rates before too long or keep them similar, which maintains an environment where people can find high rates to help their future financial lives. To navigate the fluctuating economy, consumers are advised to build defensive assumptions into their personal budgets by planning for the worst and hoping for the best. Shultz recommended taking advantage of current high levels in high-yield savings accounts to grow personal savings while focusing on controlling manageable financial choices.
