This week on "Money Talks," Troy Harmon, CFA, CVA, is joined by Managing Associates, Shawna L. Theriault, C.P.A., CFP®, CDFA®, and K.C. Smith, CFP®, to cover the week’s market moves and sector performance. They also cover inflation indicators, the Consumer Price and Producer Price indices and discuss what inflation might mean for the market. Shawna and K.C. discuss how the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act changed the game for middle income taxpayers who may have been subject to alternative minimum tax in the past. With higher exemptions and phaseouts, far fewer people will pay AMT. The experts also answer listeners’ questions on Broadcom’s hostile takeover of Qualcomm, the difference between profit sharing plans and 401(k)s, retailer QVC and its parent company Liberty TripAdvisor Holdings, and Social Security statements.
