About this episode
What does it mean when the Conference Board's Index of Leading Indicators (a predictor of the next six months' economic activity) post's a negative .5 reading...while markets seem to be able to find no ceiling? Who's right? Markets continue to be "just fine," although a potential for pullback by the end of October or beginning of November is anticipated to provide a better entry point for portfolio exposure. Lance and Jonathan answer emails, like "Is the market party over?" The biggest factor will be the shift in liquidity; that money has to go somewhere. Which is better: 9% annual return or an average of 9% over ten years; math explained. The comparison of time horizons vs actual life expectancy: No one is going to live for 124-years. Why it's not the end of the world as we know it (thank you, R.E.M.); forward returns & Valuations. The problem of earnings growth concentration among only 10-stocks; why not to hide only in cash. A financial Plan should be flexible, but it's only as good as the data. What about the Dollar? How it's backed and why it's the preferred currency of trade. Everyone is in the Prediction business; how we deal with risk. SEG-1: Conference Board's Index of Leading Indicators -.5? SEG-2: Email Answers: Is the Stock Market Party Over?
