The first half of the year was largely very productive for investors. Stocks reached new highs while bonds held steady with yields as high as we have seen in over a  decade. I’ll cover the following topics and more:  

  • The performance of stock and bonds markets year-to-date;
  • The outlook for inflation, the fed, and interest rates;
  • What is driving the stock market higher and how to think about it going forward;
  • Is AI a game changer for investing;
  • How the election might impact the economy and markets.
