2022 First Half Review

Market volatility across nearly all asset classes dominated the 1st half of 2022.  Inflation worries and recession concerns are contrasted by a strong labor market and continued growth of corporate earnings.  On this webinar I cover:

• The likelihood of a recession
• What the stock and bond markets are currently pricing in
• If inflation has peaked
• How to think about bonds while interest rates rise
• Should you be buying now, and if so, what and how?
