Answering YOUR Comments & Questions About the Market!

This is a special episode of the Market Moment! Matt, Lee, and John are answering YOUR questions, comments, and analyzing the responses from a recent Market Moment survey. We like to hear from you which is why we sent out a survey (hopefully you had a chance to fill it out!) asking how you felt about the economy, politics with the stock market, and asked for your questions. The results were interesting so let's break them down...

Policies the Market Cares About (Taxes, Tariffs, Green Energy, and More!)

This election is super polarizing and one of the biggest questions Matt, Lee, and John receive as financial advisors is “How will this change the markets?” Luckily, historical data shows that whoever is in office, whether they’re Republican or Democrat, doesn’t make a huge difference... However, policy does matter. Policies like tax changes, tariffs, green energy and more can have a huge impact on the market and economy, and in different ways!

For example, if corporations find more favorable tax conditions abroad, they can move production overseas. Everything will look good for their company on the stock market (if profits remain) but the loss of jobs would impact on the economy. Another big issue is government spending, which seems to be an issue neither party will tackle! It could become an issue for us in the next 5-10 years because it is out of control.

Remember – don’t let emotions guide your investing decisions, but your voice and vote DO MATTER!

Election, Bears, Bulls, and Uncertainty

The biggest question Matt, Lee, and John receive is how this year's big election will impact the market. In this episode, they break down some data behind election years and the market's performance, both leading up to November 5th and for the rest of the year.

They also discuss how small-caps perform during this time. This leads them into a discussion about bear and bull markets. When does a bear market start or end? How are they defined? And looking at these market cycles is a good reminder that things do not go in a straight line - there are plenty of ups and downs over the years!

Lastly, a recent Goldman Sachs report predicted:
1️⃣ The SP500 will only return a nominal 3% annually in the next 10 years.
2️⃣ It has roughly a 72% probability of trailing bonds and a 33% likelihood of lagging inflation through 2034.
3️⃣ The market will broaden out, with the equal weight SP500 outperforms the cap weighted SP500 by 2-8% annually.

But predictions don't really matter, or do they? What do you think? Overall, there is a growing sense of uncertainty as we approach the 2024 election and what the next 10 years might look like... but that's no reason to panic or be scared!

Fed Rate Cuts Aftermath & Inflation Numbers

Navigating an Uncertain Market (Are You a Bear or a Bull?)

Today on Tuesday, October 1st, the news broke that strikes are taking place along the East and Gulf Coast... and these strikes could cost billions, undoubtedly impacting the economy, the market, and of course--you, the average consumer. It looks like food prices and car parts are going to be most impacted.

There is also an upcoming, heated, polarizing election on the horizon. As Lee says, "there's a lot of noise" taking place in this next quarter... so Matt begs the question: how do you stay bullish? How do you stay in the market when there's so much uncertainty? John leans on his experience from 2007-2008 and the three of them offer their insights as financial advisors.

Will We Have a Soft Landing?

The Fed recently lowered interest rates but what does this mean for the market and our economy? Does this mean we're in for a "soft landing" as they say? Or, could things keep getting worse? Matt, John, and Lee discuss a variety of factors impacting our markets and the American consumer... such as the wars overseas, the US debt crisis, and much more. There's a lot to watch out for -- not because of fear or panic, but because it's important to be an informed investor!

Why Tax Planning Matters

The Fed is thinking about cutting rates but Lee feels like rates don't need to come down as much as people think... Amazon is putting Walgreens and CVS out of business, telling people to come back into the office (among other businesses), and the main topic of today's episode: tax planning. Matt stresses how important it is for your financial future to think about tax planning!

5% Mortgages on the Horizon?

Are 5% mortgages on the horizon? Sure, it's not as fantastic as the 2%-3% we saw during the pandemic but it is MUCH BETTER than 6%, 7%, or 8%! With a 5% mortgage, more people may be willing to sell their current homes because their new home purchase won't be as steep. Plus, if more people put their homes on the market, this opens the supply which we desperately need and can help lower costs...

 

Eli, Matt, and John also talk about the broadening of the market. They called it a #smallcapsummer a few weeks ago and now its looking like a #smallcapfall which could mean a healthier market! Yes, the Magnificent 7 are taking a hit, but you can (and should) only be at the top for so long...

 

Lastly, the guys touched on how the upcoming presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris may shake things in the market. The debate is happening tonight (09/10) and maybe next week we'll cover how or if it changed the market...

Harris Proposes Taxing Unrealized Capital Gains and More...

Things get heated in today's episode as Matt, Lee, and John discuss the Harris' tax proposal she's campaigning with... Vice President Kamala Harris proposes higher income taxes, corporate taxes, capital gains, and taxing unrealized capital gains as well... and all of this tax-talk has the guys asking "Are we being taxed into oblivion?"

As John points out, we're being taxed on the money we make, the money we spend, the money we give away, and even the money we leave behind after we die, and all other kinds of taxes in-between... And Lee points out an economic model which shows at what point a tax burden overexceeds the revenue it would bring in.

Other than taxes, they talk about the state of interest rates impacting CDs, money markets, and other cash-holding options, and they're looking forward to college football season! There was a lot to talk about!

Would 40 Year Mortgages Fix the Problem?

CNBC just published an Op-Ed titled, "The case for a 40-year mortgage" written by John Hope Bryant. The op-ed argues for introducing 40-year mortgages to help combat the struggle average Americans are facing with purchasing their first home. Between high interest rates, low inventory, and a struggling economy where wages are not keeping up with the cost of living, this is a proposed solution. But would it do more harm than good?

 

Matt, Eli, and Lee also talk about Kamala Harris' plan to raise the corporate tax rate if elected, something which Eli points out as rather pointless and primarily political. They also cover the recent stock market trends.

What's Working & What's Not in the Market

People are talking about The Fed and whether or not they'll cut rates this year (look at us, we're even talking about it!) but that isn't the easy solution to fixing our economy or even helping the stock market... that's just not how it works. There are tons of other factors involved and the stock market really cares about companies' profits and losses.... While interest rates do matter, it's only a piece of the story, and the Fed may be taking way too much credit for how our economy is running. But what do you think?

 

This week's Market Moment is hosted by Matt Walters, Lee Mackey, and John Martfeld who share their opinions as financial advisors.

Do Elections Impact the Market?

Does it really impact the market who's in the White House? Welcome to the Market Moment, where this week Lee and Matt are discussing the big question on how the market and elections are tried, if at all....

 

DISCLAIMER: This episode was filmed in preparation for vacation days, and was thus filmed prior to the recent political events (Trump's assassination attempt, Biden stepping down, and now Kamala Harris as the new nominee). All the information presented in this episode, however, is still very relevant even if Matt and Lee's references are "dated" at this point. It is still historically true that it doesn't matter if a Republican or a Democrat is in office, you should stay in the market and not time it.

 

💬 You can send your comments and questions to TheMarketMoment@mach1fg.com Do you agree or disagree with Matt and Lee? Remember, the "market" and the "economy" are two different things. Our economy could be struggling, but the market is going up.

What is the "Behavior Gap" in Investing?

Welcome to the Market Moment! This week, Matt, John and Lee discuss what's called "the behavior gap" which is the difference between an individual investor and someone who is hired to invest. It turns out, individual investors, those who invest for themselves personally, do worse in their portfolios.

One of the biggest reasons is emotion, and another one is trying to "time the market" which tends to involve late or old information. You can't really time the market!

The guys also discuss the Fed, and Matt poses the question, "what SHOULD the Fed do?"

Does Diversification Still Work?

Welcome to The Market Moment podcast! In this episode, Matt, Lee, and Eli discuss the current sentiments surrounding "the market" and portfolios. Sometimes when people say "the market" they're referring to the S&P 500 and not the overall market which includes international, small businesses, and bonds, all things which have not been performing well. While people are claiming "the market" is doing well, what they might really mean is the S&P 500, which is being heavily pulled up by the Magnificent 7, the big tech companies.

Some people wonder if this will lead to a bubble or if it's a concentrated market. People say "the market" is doing well, but many feel as if the economy is in terrible shape. Looking at the typical well-balanced portfolio, some may feel they're underperforming, especially if they're comparing their returns to that of the S&P 500..... 

Matt, Lee and Eli ask the question: Does diversification still work? Listen to find out!

Nvidia’s Drop, Economic Risks, and Finance Twitter

Welcome to the Market Moment! This week, Eli and John are diving into Nvidia’s latest stock price movement, economic risks beyond inflation, and some insights from finance Twitter.

 

Topic #1: Nvidia Stock Fell - Is This a Correction? Nvidia (NVDA) stock dropped as much as 5% on Monday, as investors moved away from the year's hottest AI play. The stock has declined more than 11% from its all-time high of $135.58 last Tuesday, when Nvidia temporarily overtook Microsoft (MSFT) as the most valuable company. Any drop beyond 10% from a recent high is considered correction territory. Bank of America analysts, however, believe this volatility is likely short-lived, reiterating a Buy rating and a $150 price target for Nvidia, calling it a "top pick."

 

Topic #2: Inflation is Not the Only Risk San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly highlighted on Monday that rising unemployment is becoming an increasing risk. The Federal Reserve must "exhibit care" in its efforts to control inflation. Reducing inflation further will likely require restraining demand, which could result in higher unemployment rates. Daly emphasized the need for the Fed to remain vigilant and open to adjustments.

 

Topic #3: Insights from Finance Twitter Join us as Eli shares some interesting financial tweets and discussions happening right now.
