Retirement Talk Radio's Podcast

Not many people expected 2022 to turn out the way it has from an economic standpoint as inflation, rising interest rates, and market declines have been in the headlines all year. The uneasiness has people asking us to explain how it got to this point and when we’ll start to see a turnaround. We’ll try to do that on this episode as Laura Stover, RFC® and Michael Wallin, CFP® will spend some time touching on a few of the things they discussed with clients during a recent Investor’s Forum. When you look for the root of the issues, all we need to do is go back to the impact COVID had on employment, supply chain issues, and the stimulus money that was injected into the economy. We are now paying the bill for everything that’s taken place the last year or two, and with too much money chasing too few goods, we’ve seen the worst market performances in decades to go with soaring inflation  But history has shown us over the past century that the stock market will rebound and we’ll share some of that data on this show.
