Show Notes

Gary Bradshaw of the Hodges Fund discusses how the changing interest-rate environment and growing nervousness about the stock market is making blue-chip, dividend-paying stocks like Verizon and Coca-Cola ideal defensive positions, providing safe, rising yields at times when income is harder to generate. Also on the show, Tom Lydon of ETFTrends.com makes a high-yielding municipal-bond fund his 'ETF of the Week,' Odeta Kushi, deputy chief economist at First American, talks the real estate market in a declining-rate environment, and Richard Barrington of MoneyRates.com discusses the best cities to downsize and retire in.
