Wealthion - Be Financially Resilient

Stocks & bonds continued to decline this week, with both stocks and bonds lower, and daily rallies failing into the close. Portfolio manager Lance Roberts & Wealthion's host Adam Taggart discuss those developments in this week's Market Recap, along with: 1. Is a 3-10% pullback in stocks now underway? 2. What are we learning about the health of corporate American now that more earnings are coming in? 3. What will be the impact of the Fitch downgrade to the US's credit rating? 4. With bond yields rising, is the long bond/TLT trade in danger? 5. How big a hit would it be to the major indices if AAPL started to really stumble? 6. What are the key aspects to look for in a good financial advisor? 7.

I'm Wealthion founder Adam Taggart, here with a brief explainer video for you on the topic of stealth liquidity. This topic is important because it helps explain why 2023 is unfolding, to the confusion of many analysts, to be the "Year Of The Recession That Wasn’t" Heading into this year from the unrelenting beating for stocks and bonds that was 2022, the vast majority of economic forecasters predicted a recession was near-certain to arrive in the first quarter or two. The Fed had turned off the monetary stimulus spigots and was now pursuing interest rate hikes and Quantitative Tightening with an aggression rarely seen before in history. The fast rising cost of capital, plus elevated input costs and higher wages from raging inflation, were squeezing corporate profits. Layoffs surged. Corporate bankruptcies started spiking to levels not seen since 2010. And then the banking system started stumbling – seeing more US bank failures as measured by market cap than in the Global Financial Crisis – forcing banks to tighten lending standards. And on top of that, the US government faced a debt ceiling showdown, which required the US Treasury to drain its general account to keep government operations funded until a deal was struck – which would then suck over a $trillion in capital out of the economy as new Treasury bonds got sold to refill the TGA’s coffers. And on top of that, the Feds higher interest rates caused a surge in interest expense on the federal debt, now passing over $1 trillion for the fiscal year. All of these factors made a compelling, practically overwhelming case for reduced systemic liquidity in 2023. For well over a decade, the markets and the economy had become dependent on the Federal Reserve’s trillions of dollars worth of QE & rock-bottom interest rates. And then during the pandemic, a series of new fiscal stimulus packages and forbearance programs added to the addiction. Without those, the thinking went, the economy would contract in 2023, companies would lay off workers in larger numbers, and the financial and housing markets would correct materially. But something funny happened on the road to this widely-expected recession. The recession forgot to show up. Why? In this video, we think we might just have the answer. ************************************************* IMPORTANT NOTE: The information and opinions offered in this video by Wealthion or its interview guests are for educational purposes ONLY and should NOT be construed as personal financial advice.

We talk frequently on this channel of the dangerous and worsening wealth gap between the rich and the rest of society. If as a regular individual investor you feel the playing field of today's financial system is unfairly tilted away from your interests and towards those of the already-wealthy, today's expert would say you're absolutely right. To delve into this topic more deeply, we sit down with Pulitizer-prize winning & NYTimes best-selling investigative journalist Gretchen Morgenson. Gretchen is renown for her groundbreaking reporting on the financial markets, with a particular focus on the way in which they are too often abused by Wall Street power players. Today, we'll discuss the key takeaways from her new book "These Are the Plunderers: How Private Equity Runs―and Wrecks―America" which was recently published and is already a Wall Street Journal bestseller. Gretchen, along with her co-author Joshua Rosner, expose the world of private equity as "insidious", claiming that a small cohort of elite financiers -- and their government enablers -- use excessive debt and dubious practices to undermine our nation’s economy for their own enrichment. To learn how, we hear from Gretchen herself.

It's said that history unfolds in cycles. That civilizations and societies boom, bust and rise anew to repeat the pattern -- a pattern that is surprisingly predictable in both its timing and trajectory. Today's guest expert is demographer Neil Howe, co-author of the book The Fourth Turning, a seminal work in which he and his fellow researcher William Strauss laid out the evidence for these "seasons" of societal change that they referred to as "turnings". When that book first came out in 1997, Howe & Strauss warned that the next societal "winter" -- the next "4th turning" to use their label -- would begin early on in the new millennium. In his brand new sequel, "The Fourth Turning Is Here", Howe reveals that we are now indeed deep within a Fourth Turning that started roughly in 2008, commensurate with the Global Financial Crisis. Our current society has entered the "bust" part of its cycle -- where the status quo falls apart -- often chaotically. What should we expect from this period of disruption? Are there steps we can take to improve our odds of persevering? And perhaps more importantly, how can we position ourselves to play a constructive role -- and possibly thrive -- as this Fourth Turning concludes, to be replaced -- as history suggests -- by a new & hopefully better, order.

For a good while now, experts, including many of those appearing on this channel, have been warning about the "lag effect" of the aggressive interest rate hikes and quantitative tightening program conducted by the Federal Reserve and other major world central banks over the past year. These experts have cautioned the speed & severity of these cooling measures would cause a sharp economic slowdown that could easily result in recession, deflation & a material correction in the financial markets. But here mid-year in 2023, the economy is chugging along at 2%+ GDP growth, inflation remains at 3% and the S&P is up 18% YTD and the NASDAQ up a whopping 35%. So where is the slowdown? Were those predicting one wrong? They weren't wrong, says Dr. Lacy Hunt. Perhaps just a little early. But a credit crunch is now at hand that will indeed start freezing up the gears of the US economy. To learn why, we have the great fortune to sit down with Dr. Hunt himself. Dr. Lacy Hunt is a former Senior Economist to the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, as well as several of the world's largest global banks. He now serves as Executive Vice President and Chief Economist of Hoisington Investment Management Company. #recession2023 #creditcrunch #marketcrash ************************************************* IMPORTANT NOTE: The information and opinions offered in this video by Wealthion or its interview guests are for educational purposes ONLY and should NOT be construed as personal financial advice.

When it comes to money, because it's so quantifiable, you'd expect people to make very rational decisions. But they don't. Because we're humans, we're more driven by our evolutionary wiring and our emotions. We make "predictably irrational" decisions, as today's guest expert would say. Dan Ariely is the James B. Duke Professor of Psychology and Behavioral Economics at Duke University and a founding member of the Center for Advanced Hindsight. I've been looking forward for a long time to having him on the program to help us understand how the flawed decision-making we make impacts the markets, the economy & our financial destinies. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

If you're watching this, whether you're a fan of fossil fuels or not, there's no denying that modern society is still immensely dependent on them -- particularly oil. Look around you -- practically everything you see required oil somewhere along the process of being mined, manufactured or transported to get to where you are. Even the food you ate today. Oil is still the lifeblood of the global economy. Yet after hitting $120/barrel a year ago, its price has since dropped nearly in half. For an update on what lies ahead with this essential fuel, as well as the global energy markets in general, we welcome petroleum geologist & energy industry analyst Art Berman back to the program. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

Whether you’re currently a senior citizen or hope to live long enough to become one some day, funding our elder years is becoming a bigger & bigger challenge. For many if not most Americans, Social Security will serve as the bedrock foundation for the income they can expect to receive later in life. But how does that program work exactly? What are the pitfalls and the best practices we should be aware of in deciding when and how to enroll in it? And for those currently not yet seniors, will there even be a Social Security program to rely on by the time we are? To provide answers to these and many more of the surprisingly tricky questions around Social Security, we’re fortunate to speak with certified financial planner Mary Beth Franklin – author of the book “Maximizing Your Social Security Retirement Benefits”. As we enter the second half of 2023, will the stronger-than-expected recovery in the markets continue? Or will forces, such as the lag effect of the Fed's hawkishly aggressive policies over the past year, ruin the current party? For insight, it helps to talk to those tasked with captaining client capital through the seas ahead. Today, we're fortunate to hear from Michael Green, portfolio manager & chief strategist at Simplify Asset Management. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

A system is only as good as the decisions made by the people running it. Today's guest expert is highly concerned that the leaders currently in charge of our financial system are out of their depth & putting us on a course to crisis. A crisis, that when it fully arrives, they will address with "solutions" that require even more centralized control by the people who caused the disaster in the first place.

We are replaying it, along with a few other of our most significant interviews of the past year, while Wealthion host Adam Taggart is dealing with a death in the family). I've said several times recently on this program, perhaps the most important and yet least appreciated trend that will drive our economic destiny in 2023 will be the lag effect. This refers to the delayed shockwaves the economy experiences when central banks make changes to monetary policy. We experienced one of the sharpest-ever reversals in policy a year ago, but most of the impacts from that have yet to be fully expressed, as they take many months to ripple through the economy before we can see them. Which is why we're so fortunate to speak with today's guest, Michael Kantrowitz, chief investment strategist & managing director at Piper Sandler. He's created the H.O.P.E. framework - Housing, Orders, Profits & Employment -- which provides a way for us to track the progression of those shockwaves, and gives us the ability to project what's likely to come next. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

Could deflation soon become the bigger concern for investors if the Fed indeed reaches -- and then possibly drops below -- it's 2% inflation target? It's possible.

Home prices in the US peaked a year ago in June. Since then, transactions have noticeably cooled as mortgage rates have skyrocketed. And while prices have declined in a number of markets nationwide, the correction so far has been quite mild. Are the housing bears wrong? Or are things going to get notably worse from here?

Alasdair MacLeod returns for Part 2 of interview with him, in which he confidently predicts the banking system will need to be rescued by the central banks due to the high interest rates those policymakers are setting. The rescue will likely result in flooding the system with $trillions in fresh stimulus, further accelerating inflation and the destruction of the purchasing power of the world's major fiat currencies. Alasdair then explains how gold and other hard assets can be good options for protect the value of one's wealth should such a credit and/or banking crisis indeed ensue. ************************ At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

While much debate currently centers around whether the dollar will weaken further or resume the dominance it displayed last year, today's guest is more concerned about how much longer it has left as the pre-eminent currency in the world. But at an even higher level, when Alasdair Macleod, head of Research for GoldMoney, was on this program last, he made a dire prediction that ALL the world's major fiat currencies were in the process of failing -- far faster than many are imagining. He returns to the program today to update us on the latest details & timing of his outlook. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

A concern that many recent experts on this channel have raised is that there is a dangerously high percentage of corporations that classify as "zombie companies". As the cost of debt increases as interest rates rise -- with the prime bank borrowing rate now above 8% -- the likelihood that these companies could start failing en mass increases. How big of a concern is this? What implications would a mass die off of these zombies have on the markets, and the economy in general. For answers, we turn to David Trainer, CEO of research firm New Constructs, who has been ringing the warning bell of late over the risk of zombie contagion. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

This July 4th we celebrate financial independence by revisiting this interview with Dr. William Danko, author of the best-selling books The Millionaire Next Door: The Surprising Secrets Of America's Wealthy & Richer Than A Millionaire: A Pathway To True Prosperity. In it Bill reveals the best practices for building wealth and growing rich derived from his decades-long research of high-net worth and high-income millionaires. Personal finance gurus like Dave Ramsey and Suze Orman leverage these insights all the time in their work. The Millionaire Next Door is a long-time best selling book, written by two PhD’s who spent decades researching the behaviors of thousands of millionaires. Their work reveals that there is indeed a scientifically-derived approach to financial success. So what are the key success factors for building wealth? And how do they apply today? William Danko, the book’s surviving co-author, sits down with us to generously shares the key insights from his rigorous research.Here are his top takeaways from his study of those who successfully become millionaires and grew their wealth: 1. They live well below their means. 2. They allocate their time, energy, and money efficiently, in ways conducive to building wealth. 3. They believe that financial independence is more important than displaying high social status. 4. Their parents did not provide economic outpatient care. 5. Their adult children are economically self-sufficient. 6. They are proficient in targeting market opportunities. 7. They chose the right occupation. If you’re really serious about building sustainable wealth, get a good financial advisor who understands Bill’s research to be your coach.

When the road ahead is uncertain, there's no wiser choice than to listen to those with experience - who have seen enough market cycles to judge what's most likely to happen next. Today we're fortunate to welcome financial advisor Ted Oakley, managing partner & founder of Oxbow Advisors. Ted has over 40 years experience helping clients, mostly high net worth families, protect and build wealth through good times and bad. Here in mid 2023, we'll ask him if the current powerful bull rally means the coast is clear for investors to pile back into the markets again, or if the bear market that attacked last year is simply drawing as much capital into the markets as it can before it strikes again. And we'll find out how he's currently positioning his clients assets for what he sees lying ahead. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

When today's guest expert was last on this program in February, he explained how bulls & bears were locked in a "battle for control" -- with the battle zone roughly defined between 3800 and 4300 on the S&P 500. Well, that battle has now been won by the bulls. On the day of this recording, the S&P now sits just above 4400. Where to from here? Does the market have a clear path to new highs? Or may the bears launch a counteroffensive? To get the best sense of exactly what the technicals are telling us right now, we're fortunate to welcome Sven Henrich of NorthmanTrader back on the program to discuss both his latest macro and market outlooks. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

GDP growth for the past two quarters has been positive -- but gross domestic income has been negative over the same period. The multitude of macro data is screaming recession, yet earnings estimates are on the rise, unemployment remains low and the stock market is booming. What can we expect from the second half of the year? For perspective, we turn to David Hay, co-founder & co-Chief Investment Officer of Evergreen Gavekal, a financial advisory firm managing $3.5 billion of investor capital. I love talking with experts like David because as a steward of so much in AUMl, he can't simply rely on an "opinion"; has to steer this capital safely through what's coming next. So his conviction needs to be as high as possible. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

Our endorsed financial advisors at New Harbor Financial explain in this video how the bull rally in stocks has kicked into a higher gear recently. On the plus side, capital is now flowing into small cap stocks, so the market action is broadening. But now the number of stocks showing overbought readings is multiplying fast. And signs of potentially reckless speculation -- like the volume of call options being traded -- are suddenly everywhere. We also discuss the key takeaways from the interviews on the channel this week with Peter Boockvar and Tavi Costa that warn of a hard landing for the economy in H2... and likely the markets as well. Plus, John & Mike share how they are currently allocating client capital given the latest market developments. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

If you're watching this video, you're probably familiar with what stocks are -- either through hearing about on the TV business news shows or investing them in through your retirement and brokerage accounts. For the most part, these are shares in companies that are publicly traded. But there's a whole other world of companies out there that are privately owned and don't trade on the financial exchanges. This is the world of Private Equity, where the more deep-pocketed and professional investors operate -- often gaining access to value that the smaller retail investor never gets a shot at. That may be changing. New regulatory flexibility and new business models are now promising to help more individual investors tap into Private Equity when appropriate. So what exactly IS Private Equity? What are its advantages and risks? To demystify this asset class for us and help us understand its opportunities, we're fortunate to have Bob Long, CEO of Stepstone Private Wealth, here on the program today. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.
