Summary
Discover why stocks and crypto prices are down.
Are you investing well for financial freedom...or not?
Financial freedom is a combination of money, compounding and time (my McT Formula). How well you invest, makes a huge difference to your financial future and lifestyle.
If you only knew where to invest for the long-term, what a difference it would make, because the difference between investing $100k and earning 5 percent or 10 percent on your money over 30 years, is the difference between it growing to $432,194 or $1,744,940, an increase of over $1.3 million dollars.
Your compounding rate, and how well you invest, matters!

| 0:40.9 | America's wealth mentor, empowering women and men worldwide to financial freedom. On today's show, |
| 0:46.1 | we're going to talk about why are stocks and crypto down? Because people can get anxious with this |
| 0:51.3 | volatility being very sharp, but oftentimes it's traders using emotion in the |
| 0:56.4 | market to their advantage. And sometimes there's some economic uncertainty at that time, |
| 1:01.4 | where they can really drive prices lower. And that's what we're seeing right now. First, |
| 1:06.2 | let's talk about stocks. So in the stock market, there's the macro picture or the big picture that's driving |
| 1:11.7 | general economic news, and then there's the specific news that's driven for each individual stock. |
| 1:18.6 | On a macro basis, we're most concerned about what are interest rates going to do. And so the numbers |
| 1:23.2 | that came out today from the Price Consumption Expenditures Index, the PCE index, that the Fed favors |
| 1:30.1 | to look at inflation were actually pretty good. Inflation was up 0.3% last month and is running on an |
| 1:37.1 | annualized basis of 2.5% per year, which is close to the Fed's desired 2% inflation rate that they are trying to take the economy back to. |
| 1:46.7 | And when we see inflation close to the fed's desired rate, that may open the window for the Fed to make more interest rate cuts. |
| 1:55.2 | The other side of that was we got the unemployment data yesterday. |
| 1:59.2 | And unemployment was up more than expected, which also may |
| 2:03.6 | open the window for the Fed to cut rates in the future. Jobless claims for the week, according to the |
| 2:09.0 | Labor Department report, was $242,000. This was up $22,000 from the previous week's revised level |
