This week on “Money Talks,” Chief Investment Officer Troy Harmon, CFA, CVA, is joined by Managing Associate Shawna Theriault, CPA, CFP®, CDFA®, and Associate Peter Lynch to discuss the week’s market action and the start of fourth quarter 2020 earnings season. They touch on the 12-month run that Consumer Discretionary stocks have had as well as the Fed’s revised measurement for inflation. Shawna and Peter team up to discuss the situation of a couple who are 10 years from retirement and are concerned about buying fixed income investments in a low interest rate environment. The Experts round out the show answering listeners’ questions on commission-free trades, a recovery in the Utility sector and how more regulation and higher taxes might work in our favor.
