Episode 359 - Opportunities Abound, but Not Always for the Faint of Heart

This recent market analysis by Capital Group got our attention:

Over the last couple of years, the gap in both returns and valuations between small cap and large cap stocks has expanded against the backdrop of tighter monetary policy.

To further summarize, a well-known index is trading near a 20-year low on a relative basis versus large caps. Limiting your exposure to these assets will limit your risk, but it is always interesting to see where the opportunities might lie in our allocation strategies for the future. We believe you, too, will find it interesting as we discuss why this information could be helpful to your portfolio. Next, Heidi will discuss what retirees can do right now to reduce next year’s taxes, backed by some great quotes from our IRA tax consultant, Ed Slott. Finally, Deann will share stats that better illustrate the subject at hand.

Episode 356 - Is This Irrational Exuberance?

Around the turn of the previous century, Alan Greenspan made the following famous and prescient comment regarding the dot-com bubble:

“A decline in perceived risk is often self-reinforcing in that it encourages presumptions of prolonged stability and thus a willingness to reach for risk over an ever-more extended time period. History cautions that extended periods of low concern about risk have invariably been followed by reversal, with an attendant fall in the prices of risky assets.”

On today’s show, we’ll ponder and discuss several sources that we think you’ll find helpful in considering these issues as they relate to your own well-being and retirement. Next, Heidi will discuss the importance of getting good Social Security advice as well as explore some of the problems others have encountered in getting that guidance.
