Ep 196Investors' Great Expectations Meet the Economic Realities of the 2nd Half of 2024

Buoyed by more record highs, investors have been reinvigorated by the prospect of interest rate cuts in September as inflation slows. But, as SoFi's Liz Young Thomas explains, interest rate cuts into a slowing economy are not always followed by great returns. Liz rejoins The Express to share her outlook for the second half of the year, and how to invest now to take advantage of sector rotation and economic headwinds. Plus, Wall Street strategists continue to raise their year-end price targets for the S&P 500 as earnings strengthen and market breadth finally opens up.

Ep 194How the Trolls Took Over Wall Street, and Where They are Now

Nathaniel Popper joins The Express to talk about his latest book, "The Trolls of Wall Street: How the Outcasts and Insurgents are Hacking the Markets", and explains the origins of meme stock explosion which actually took root during Occupy Wall Street, and made their way through online forums like 4chan where throngs of disillusioned young men found community in the stock market. Popper draws the through-line from the Great Financial Crisis through the birth of Robinhood, Reddit and ultimately wallstreetbets, where trolling is the language of trading. If you thought this community of traders went away with the pandemic - think again. They are here to stay, and that could be good news for all investors.

Ep 192Making the Case Against the 401(k)

Professor Teresa Ghilarducci, a labor economist and retirement expert at The New School for Social Research, has been arguing for years that the 401(k), which was never intended to be the primary retirement savings vehicle for most American workers, only helps high earners and is riddled with misaligned incentives. She joins The Express to make the case for a new government sponsored retirement savings account that she says is more equitable and provides a pathway to allowing workers to not run out of money once they stop working. Plus, new record highs keep coming for the stock market, but by all accounts, this bull market is pretty tame.

Ep 189Why the U.S. Real Estate Market Might Be Healthier Than We Think

Julian Hebron of The Basis Point rejoins the show to myth-bust many of the media reports that have painted the real estate market with a broken brush. From affordability to supply, and the impact of A.I. to the seminal broker commission settlement, Julian shows why potential homebuyers and sellers are in the sweetest spot they've been in for years. Plus, more investors are sniffing around the junk bond market in search of higher and higher yields, but the rising stench of defaults is sending our warning winds.

Ep 182Putting Stock Market Pullbacks into Perspective

Sam Stovall, Chief Investment Strategist at CFRA, rejoins The Express to put stock market pullbacks in perspective, and why the recent declines are to be expected and relatively minor given historical averages. Plus, there is a growing chorus of Fed presidents who don't think interest rate cuts are warranted at all this year given the hot labor market and persistent inflation. Do investors and savers need to get used to, "higher until whenever", for interest rates, which might explain the heaviest inflows into money market funds that we've witnessed all year?
