(8/18/23) Market over-exuberance is now letting off steam; high interest rates are likely here to stay for a while. WalMart results reflecting more traffic from upper-income households suffering impact of inflation. The Peak-65 retirement trend shows less than half of retirees have less than $100k in investible funds; states moving to automatic savings into Roth IRA's; the downside of state-sponsored savings plans: Who administers/custodian? Looking for deflation: Prices aren't coming down, but the rate of increase is slowing; the Fed likely has two more rate hikes in store. "Shift-up:" More unemployment claims coming from upper-income earners. How long can this last with the chipping away of fiscal responsibility? Impact on investors: frustration in diversified portfolios. Why you need a 10% pullback in markets (and what has happened to all the AI hype-narratives?) Pet Medical Care & Willingness of 78% to go into debt for pet health. The importance of setting up pet healthcare goals in financial plans. Pet care insurance (Healthy Paws) and importance of understanding stipulations & how to handle claims. I have no idea why we ended up talking about Brittney Spears' divorce at the end. That's just bizarre.
