Around the Table with Stacy Smith

How high is the sky? That seems to be the case with the stock market over the past month or more, as A-I and tech stocks push the markets to new records highs… But is it too late to join the party? How are other sectors of the market doing? And should you be protecting yourself from a bubble that might burst? Some opinions on are coming up in this edition of “The Bull, the Bear and You.”

The President has shown his power in the primaries, but will that carry over to the Mid-Term election especially with high prices and the conflict with Iran? The Democrats have seen their Progressive wing flex its muscle in the primaries, but how strong will that wing be in the fall? Also, both parties are dealing with anti-Semitism. It’s a lively discussion in the latest edition of “Trunk n’ Tails.”

You may have heard of the K shaped economy, now there is talk of an E shaped economy. Whatever shape it is, people who have good jobs and money are doing just fine. Others are not.

Why does the stock market keep going up even though the conflict with Iran continues and oil prices are so high? And if prices remain high what happens if the consumer stops spending?

We explore those topics in the 50th episode of “The Bull, the Bear and You.”
