3rd Quarter 2023 Market Review & Outlook

The 3rd quarter was a period of change for investors. Stocks continued to rally early in the summer but then as investors began to digest a new interest rate regime, stock and bond markets sold off meaningfully to end the quarter. Treasury yields have risen to rates not seen in over 15 years. On this podcast I delve into the following topics and more:  

• The performance of stock and bonds markets year-to-date;
• Why the economy continues to be resilient in the face of much higher interest rates; 
• The outlook for inflation, the fed, and interest rates;
• How to invest in stock and bond markets during periods of volatility;
• Why I believe the bond market is acting more like the stock market;
• Where opportunity exists today.
