Wealthion - Be Financially Resilient

As regular viewers know, this channel's mission is focused on wealth building, how to help its viewers fund their life goals. Risk management is a big part of successfully building wealth. But many people -- even sometimes the "smartest guys on Wall Street" -- fail to adequately protect themselves from downside risk. Perhaps the best-known example of this is the surprise implosion of the hedge fun...

In a lot of ways, we're in uncharted territory right now. While we face a litany of daunting challenges on an increasing number of fronts -- including this weekend's tragic developments in the middle east -- we've never had so much debt weighing us down at the national and the household level. And the cost to service that debt has recently ballooned, to levels that may well be unsustainable. How w...

Ed Yardeni, the investment strategist who coined the term "bond vigilantes" back in 1983 declares they are back & responsible for the painful recent rise in bond yields. Specifically, Ed thinks concerns about the high degree of deficit spending & increase in supply of US Treasurys is what has awakened them from their decades-long slumber. Where does Ed see bonds & stocks headed from here? We discu...

Portfolio manager Lance Roberts explains why, despite the potential for stocks to rally into year end, next year may indeed be the time when the lag effect catches up with the economy and we plunge into a recession + a bear market. He and Wealthion host Adam Taggart discuss this in today's Weekly Market Recap, as well as these other following topics: - new payrolls jobs data - expectations for nex...

Bond yields continued to rise this week, causing more investors to worry that a major market repricing is in store ahead. How much pain is left in store for bonds? For stocks? Wealthion host Adam Taggart discusses this in depth with the financial advisors at New Harbor, who share their forecast as well as how they are currently positioning client capital for what they see ahead. LOCK IN THE EARLY...

LOCK IN THE EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT PRICE for Wealthion's online conference on Oct 21 at https://wealthion.com/conference?utm_source=SPFY 2022 was one of the most treacherous years on record for investors.

Tickets for the Wealthion Fall conference are still on sale at the Early Bird price discount of near...

Disruptive change is everywhere these days. The world is still recovering from the shockwaves unleashed by the COVID pandemic and the war in Ukraine. New technologies like AI threaten to upend our relationship to work. The financial markets have made wild swings over the past 2 years. And the risk of the economy falling into recession next year is concerningly high. How can we prevent ourselves fr...

As we head into the final quarter of 2023, where are markets likely to go next? The dramatic run-up in stocks seen in the first half of the year has run out of steam. Is the peak for the year behind us, or will stocks power higher into December? And bond prices continue dropping. US Treasurys look on track to log their first consecutive 3-year decline in market history. Is there any hope of a reve...

Stocks and bonds are range-bound right now. Is the recovery from the swoon in August fizzling out? Or are assets just consolidating & preparing to power higher for the remainder of the year? (as recent technical analysis expert Sven Henrich predicts) Portfolio manager Lance Roberts & Wealthion's host Adam Taggart discuss those developments in this week's Market Recap, along with: 1. Is the market...

According to todays guest expert, there is a rare and powerful trend occurring in bond markets. Bond analyst Alf Pecatiello warns that over the last 3 months, US bond markets are in an aggressive and prolonged period of bear steepening of the yield curve. History shows, if left unchecked, this steepening is likely to cause serious damage to equity markets and the economy. To find out why, we'll he...

Monetary expert Matthew Piepenburg of GoldSwitzerland.com returns for Part 2 of our interview with him in which he explains why, whenever countries become too indebted (as we are now) it's ALWAYS the currency that's sacrificed. In the long run, hyperinflation is likely to be the end result. But in the near term, a recession & bear market correction look quite likely. Which makes the current enviro...

Right now, surprisingly robust economic growth of 4.9% is currently expected for Q3. And inflation remains contained below 4%, less than half where it was a year ago. This is great news, right? The economy has rebounded, the Fed is taming inflation, and we've dodged the risk of a recession. Not really, warns Matthew Piepenburg of Matterhorn Asset Management, AG (proprietor of Goldswitzerland.com)....

Macro & markets analyst Darius Dale returns for Part 2 of our interview with him.

In continuing "higher for longer", the gravitational force weighing on the economy from current elevated interest rates will compound, resulting in "weaker for longer" economic growth. Powell knows this and re-emphasized (once again) that the full force -- i.e., the lag effect -- of the Fed's hiking & tightening regime has not yet manifested. Key takeaway: conditions are going to get harder from h...

While the Fed has succeeded in bringing inflation as measured by headline CPI down from 9% to under 4%, it hasn't won the battle yet. In fact, CPI has been rising over the past several months. Today's expert cautions that we're likely to see an unwelcome transition from what he calls "immaculate disinflation" to "sticky inflation", which could serve as the death nail for the current bull run in th...

Money manager Michael Pento returns for Part 2 of our interview with him to share how his portfolio is currently positioned as well as how he will change that positioning once the market correction he expects is underway. He's confident one will happen in the coming 12 months as stocks remain 30% overvalued by his calculations. When the correction occurs, Michael recommends positioning in cash, th...

With interest rates higher than they've been in over 20 years, many analysts and economists have expected the economy - and then the markets - to buckle under the higher cost of debt. After all, we have 6x the total public debt as we did that last time interest rates were this high. But whether that will eventually prove true, the markets are priced as if it won't. Right now, they're priced for no...

The last time today's guest expert was on this channel, he warned that rising interest rates would cause a surge in the debt service cost on America's national debt -- and that THAT would perhaps be the destabilizing trigger that would "break something" and force a policy pivot by the Federal Reserve. Well, the first half of that prediction has proven correct. Interest on the national debt is on t...
