from Simply Money by Allworth Financial · host Allworth Financial

On this week’s Best of Simply Money podcast, Bob and Brian break down the latest July inflation report and explain why the Fed might finally be ready to cut rates in September. They also dissect investor fears of stagflation and clarify why today's market isn't the 1970s all over again. Later, they dig into why now might be the right time to lock in short-term yields for your cash, whether direct indexing makes sense for higher-net-worth investors, and how to think about pulling money in retirement. Plus, Bob shares how he’s handling the long-term care funding puzzle in his own financial plan.
