When Everyone Expects Something

Rumor has it that 2020 will come to an end in two weeks, and The FarrCast is here to look ahead. Michael Farr welcomes Jim Lebenthal from CNBC's Halftime Report to talk markets. Congress is finally close to a stimulus deal after seven months, will it be a "sell the news" event? Jim and Michael agree with the pain that much of America is feeling, the stimulus is necessary as a political as well as economic item. Dan Mahaffee joins for the latest from DC and the hints of a powerful center rising in the Senate -- but Dan expects the tribalism to continue. He also says that the recent hack into government computer systems has been underplayed, partly because no one's sure if the Russians are still holding our pants down. For our special guest segment, Michael is joined by FarrCast fan favorite Jack Bouroudjian. Jack talks about the commodities complex and what it is telling us about the economy. He asks tough questions about the stimulus, and reminds investors: when everyone expects something to happen, they are usually wrong. It's a great year end FarrCast.
