September 2024

The Federal Reserve cut its benchmark interest rate by a full 0.5% rather than the more customary 0.25%. He gave Wall Street what they wanted and expected. What do we do now?

We’re going back to the moon, this time on the backs of private industry. NASA is handpicking innovative companies with solutions to the problems of deep-space exploration. And that’s about to kick-off a flood of investment opportunity with the companies that are making that happen.

Life expectancy in China today is about 78 years, which is comparable to the U.S. and much of the developed world. Still, a guaranteed retirement of 20 to 30 years is just a tad too generous.

The upcoming election is at the top of minds right now… and understandably so. In just 51 days, our nation’s fate will be decided. Turn on any screen, and expect to be bombarded with the faces of Donald Trump or Kamala Harris, each new headline more facepalm-worthy than the last.

The purpose of investing is to grow our wealth by owning good businesses. But what happens with corporate activism gets involved?

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris traded blow after blow on a long list of issues throughout last night’s presidential debate, but neither said a peep about anything that actually matters to our future…

We’ll also get insights into how we should be protecting and growing our wealth as we travel down this home stretch to Election Day. 

September is historically a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad month for stocks, but a unique event is set to take place in about two weeks that could make THIS September the best month of the year for investors…

Sixty-five days and counting until Election Day. We’ve been through media storms, a cringe-worthy debate, a failed assassination attempt, a replacement candidate, endorsements, conventions, heavily funded campaigns, cemetery brawls. At this point, you’d think we’ve seen it all! But wait…
