Weekly Market Insights December 16 - 20, 2024

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Jeff and Jake eventually got around to filling us in on this week's less than favorable market changes. Then went on tell us about the Fed's rate decisions for this week and likely, the near future. After listening to lots of abbreviations, I started to wonder if maybe they should just start recording the entire podcast using the first letter of every word they wanted to use. It would still make about as much sense to me as it does now. Politically, a lot is happening right now and as you might be able to guess, Jeff and Jake go into it. House Bill 82 was an interesting topic. Does the windfall elimination provision or government pension offset affect you? Lastly, but not least, things to look out for and prepare to read some fine print. This episode was recorded on December 20th, 2024.
