- An update of stock market performance for the year
- Which sectors have been leading and lagging the US stock market
- Our thoughts on the current economic expansion (which is the longest in US history)
- A look at the long-term trend of the stock market and where we think we are headed from here
- An update on dividend yields
- Why we think the probability of a recession in the near future is low
- The impact of the trade war with China
- How tariffs have impacted the manufacturing (hint: it’s at the lowest level we’ve seen since 2009)
- An update on the Federal Reserve and what we expect for interest rates the rest of this year
- Some thoughts on the 2020 election and what you should focus on as an investor
- Stats on market performance during October, November, December (historically the best quarter of the year)
As you can see, I cover a lot of information in this video. My goal was to give you a thorough update on what you need to know to be an informed investor in less than 15 minutes.
