This month, Joel Johnson and Jake MacFarlane review a stronger August for U.S. stocks, widening market participation and the latest signals from interest rates, inflation and the labor market.
They also recap the close of earnings season, with a closer look at Nvidia’s results and the potential implications of Meta’s ongoing litigation. The episode then turns to private credit: what it is, why companies use it, how investors may be compensated for the added risk and the tradeoffs that deserve careful attention.
Joel and Jake close by answering two client questions: Is the market in a bubble, and how could the midterm elections affect portfolios?
