Send us a text

On this podcast I cover the recent volatility in the market. We discuss everything including today's market moves as they occured. Among the topics covered:

• The recent market volatility and the reasons behind it.
• The impact of tariff policy on markets, the economy, and global trade
• A broad look at performance beyond just the S&P 500. This includes International and Emerging Equity Markets, Real Assets, Core Bond and High Yield Bond Markets.
• The benefits of diversification year-to-date.
• Probability of loss across a range of asset allocation strategies.
• The notion of buying opportunistically during market pullbacks. Does it make sense? If so, for who?
• Fed policy going forward and the impact on interest rates.
• How to think about long-term financial planning during periods of volatility.
• The impact of market timing during periods of capital markets stress.

I was joined by Roosevelt Bowman, a Senior Investment Strategist at Bernstein. Many of you know Roosevelt.
