Feelings vs. Facts – As a follow up to a recent discussion about
how the majority of
Americans feel as if the economy is in a recession and the
financial markets are
struggling, Brian Regan joins Chris Boyd and Jeff Perry to talk
about how the
emotions/feelings of many clients do not match the data. Chris
proposes a theory that
much of this disconnect is related to how inflation has put
pressure on household budgets.
Jeff weights in that the presidential election, increasing national
debt, and wars in the
Middle East and Ukraine add to investor concerns. Brian brings in a
variety of data
points which demonstrates that the feelings of investors are not
correlated with the
strength of the US economy or the financial markets. At the end of
the episode Jeff and
Chris discuss the growing trend of investors considering Roth IRA
conversions.
