Weekly Market Insights April 29 - May 3, 2024

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Have you ever heard or read in the news that a company is doing a stock buyback and thought to yourself, "What in tarnation would a company buy its own stock for?". Listen in as Jeff and Jake answer that question and give us an update on what happened with the S&P 500 Stock Index (SPX) along with their other favored indicator, the CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index this week. And, if you make it to the end, which is a long way from the beginning, you might just have an understanding of not only company stock buybacks, but also US Treasury buybacks.
