    The USPS Will Require Bar Codes to Track Mail-In Ballots/Clients Frustrated with Financial Advisors/Agents Not Listening to Them

    The US Supreme Court has allowed the United States Postal Service to require unique bar codes on mail-in ballots. Ballots will be tracked similar to packages. This eliminates duplicate ballots and will greatly reduce fraudulent ballots. The USPS does not determine voter eligibility or decides who receives a ballot. They do not open the ballots nor see the actual votes. This eliminates duplicate ballots. The unique barcode on the envelope and on the return envelope ensure the number mailed is not greater than the number mailed out and that the mailing in a ballot is the same person who received them. This will greatly reduce fraudulent ballots. States retain 100% control over voter registration rolls and eligibility. If states include non-citizens on the voter rolls, there is a paper trail. This creates accountability. Ferenc shares the frustration many people have with financial advisors/agents not really listening to their desires and solutions to this problem.

    Illegal Aliens are an Economic Issue/The Importance of Participation Rates to Accelerate Returns on Index Products

    In the early 70's, there were about 4 million SNAP recipients, or about 1/50 Americans. In 2026, there are nearly 40 million SNAP recipients, or about 1/9 Americans. Government statistics show over half or illegal aliens. Another third are non-citizens. Less than 20% of SNAP recipients are US citizens.   The 9-fold increase was not driven by poverty. The poverty is significantly lower in 2026 than in the 1970's.   The total of all welfare programs is about $1.5 trillion per year. This is more than our entire military budget. It's more than Social Security. This is more than any other program in the US.   Illegal aliens receive welfare. Every illegal deported is a tax cut for US taxpayers.     The 4 Keys to Maximize Index Returns 1. Strong Performing Index: without knowing the historical index performance, you are flying blind 2. Fees: high fees reduce returns 3. Caps: limit upside gains 4. Participation Rates: higher participate rates can accelerate gains higher than underlying the underlying index   A high participation rate can accelerate gains even higher than the underlying index.   If you are suffering low returns with your index annuity, contact Ferenc at [email protected] or 866-268-4422 to learn how to increase your potential upside gains.

    The Stock Market and Bond Markets are Hitting Historical Records. Both Cannot Continue Long Term. Which Will Break Down First?

    The S&P 500 recently hit a new all time high. The index has doubled since 2023.   The 30-year treasury recently exceeded 5%, the highest level since 2007. The bond yield has been increasing since 2020.   The stock market has been led by a few tech companies. Stock prices are driven by sentiment. Sentiment can change quickly.   Bond yields are rising due to federal debt. As long as the government continues to spend more than it receives, bond yields will keep increasing. Until Congress stops spending more than it receives, this will continue. There is no sign of this changing in the foreseeable future.   Higher interest rates are typically bad for the stock market. Higher interest rates increase the costs to borrow and expand business. Profits typically decline.   Both cannot continue rising long-term.    My bet is the stock market will decline before the bond market. The bond market is significantly larger than the stock market. The driver of increased bond yields is not changing.    This creates significant risk and opportunity.   This is the Golden Era of Fixed Assets. Fixed index annuities are generating the highest returns in decades due to the higher bond yields.

    The Greatest Challenge of Our Generation - The 3 Primary Reasons for Poor Index Annuity Returns

    Election Integrity is the greatest challenge of our generation.   China stole 220 million American voter files then created large numbers of fraudulent driver's licenses to allow non-citizens to vote. US intelligence agencies knew about this yet did nothing and hid the info from the President and the American people.   The Department of Homeland Security reviewed public data files of 4 states and found 278,000 non-citizens registered to vote. It is likely millions of non-citizens are registered to vote nationwide.   Michigan police raided a large-scale voter registration fraud operation involving 44 people in 6 counties. One person alone submitted over 8000 votes with the same signature. They seized weapons, computer files, and significant evidence of voter fraud.  The police investigation also found the Biden campaign paid the operation $11 million. The Biden FBI took over the investigation then did nothing. No one was charged.   The actual damage was not that Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. The real damage is the ballot is more than a counting exercise. It is how "We the People" exercise authority over those we chose to represent us.   Election fraud diminishes the legitimate voter's voice. Continued unabated, we will eventually lose our power and the freedoms we enjoy.   Ferenc shares the 3 primary reasons index annuities suffer from poor returns. 1. Low interest rate environment from annuities purchased before 2023. 2. Investing in indexes with poor index performance. 3. Caps limiting index performance.   You can increase potential index annuity returns 2-3X: 1. Transfer/rollover to new index annuity product to increase returns. 2. Choose indexes with strong return history (9-15% average annual returns past 10-20 years). 3. Eliminate caps (unlimited upside).   Contact Ferenc at [email protected] or 866-268-4422 for more info.

    Market Bubbles: Technology Changes, Times Change, Human Behavior does not Change

    New technology has created market bubbles throughout history. The technology changes, the times change, yet human behavior does not. The price of an asset ultimately is what someone is willing to pay for it. When there are not more buyers willing to pay the price, the correction starts. It is not about intelligence. It is about understanding the perceived value and what time it is. Sir Issac Newton made money in the Tulip Mania in the 1500's and got out. The prices continued to increase. He resisted reentering the market because he knew logically that prices were too high. Eventually, he reinvested near the top, then lost most of his money. The Climax Rally is often the final cycle of a bull market. Excitement and euphoria are at the highest. It is also the most dangerous and risky portion of a bull market. This the "Golden Era" of fixed assets. The best annuity products are available in my 26 year career! There are index annuities without caps that offer unlimited upside potential. They also protect against downside market risk. The principal is guaranteed.  Contact me at [email protected] or 866-515-6280 for more info.

    Companies are Using Chinese AI Technology to Reduce Costs by up to 95%

    UBS has stated that 60% of companies are greatly reducing their US Artificial Intelligence usage in favor of Chinese AI due to the reduced costs. Chinese AI costs are up to 95% less than US AI technology.  Benchmark tests are showing that Chinese AI is 80 - 95% as effective as US AI. It is becoming difficult for companies to justify the cost of US AI with the Chinese models nearly as efficient. AI related US stock valuations are priced for dominance of AI usage. If AI demand continues to decline due to high costs, this will likely cause the AI bubble to burst. Index annuities are a tremendous financial tool to continue strong upside gains if the markets continue to rise, yet protect against downside market risk.

    The US Stock Market has Never been this Expensive - Ferenc Shares Special 250th Independence Day Message!

    The US Equity Market Valuation has hit the highest level ever recorded! This combined metric includes P/E, Forward P/E, Shiller P/E, EV/EBITDA, Price-to-Book, Price-to-Sales, Q Ratio, Return on Equity (RoE), and the Warren Buffett Indicator.  The US Equity Market Valuation metric has hit the 80% percentile 5 times since 1900. Each time this happened previously, US stock performance suffered underperformance for years. Warren Buffet quotes: - 1999: "Euphoria is the enemy." Dot-com crash followed. NASDAQ dropped over 70%. - 2026: "Worse than 1999." Same warning, different year. What happens next? Ferenc also shares a very special and personal 250th Independence Day message!

    The Federal Reserve Puts Markets on Notice of Possible Rate Hikes. How to Increase Index (Growth) Annuity Returns 2-3X.

    Inflation has increased for the third consecutive month. Historically, inflation happens in waves.    The recent Federal Reserve meeting was the first one with the new Chairman, Kevin Warsh. Following are the highlights:    1. Half of the Fed Governors projected a rate increase in 2026    2. None of the Fed Governors project a rate decrease.    3. The Fed has dropped forward guidance.   The stock market has priced in rate cuts. This could affect valuations negatively.   Less Fed info means more uncertainty. Increased uncertainty increases volatility.   Index products allow unlimited upside potential growth with no downside market risk. - No caps = unlimited upside - No and low fee options - 100%+ one year participation rates - Up to 29% signing bonus if you have a penalty to overcome   There are multiple index products with 10, 12, and even 15% average annual returns over the past 10 -20 years.

    The SpaceX IPO May be the Largest Insider Sell Event in a Decade

    Apple went public in 1980 at 15X revenue.   SpaceX is scheduled to go public on 6.12.26 at 100X revenue. The market cap is estimated to be $1.5 -2.0 trillion valuation. This would be higher than Microsoft. SpaceX would be the third largest company by market cap in the US, behind only Apple and Nvidia.   SpaceX lost over $4 billion in Q1 2026. Total losses since founding have been over $40 billion.   95% of all SpaceX shares are held by insiders.   Typically, insiders are frozen from selling their shares for 180 days after listing to prevent the stock price from getting crushed.   SpaceX insiders will be able to sell 20% of their shares in 60 days. Several more chunks of shares will be unlocked for insiders.   By late November 2026, over 90% of insider shares would be unlocked for potential sale.   The median stock price on most large IPO's, including Facebook, Coinbase, and Uber, have lost over 50% of their stock price after one year. Many were leading companies in their space and "must-own stocks".    There may be a short-term speculative price increase due to the hype and interest around SpaceX. The valuation is extraordinarily expensive. Proceed with extreme caution.

    The AI Bubble is Showing Serious Signs of Cracking

    Stock valuations have almost never been higher.   - The Buffet Indicator is at 233, the highest ever recorded. Market cap to GDP has never been higher.   - The Schiller Adjusted Price to Earnings ratio is the second highest recorded in 145 years. At current valuations, it would take over 40 years to recover the investment through earnings.    - The Bank of America Bull and Bear Indicator is screaming sell again. The past 17 times stocks dropped 2-20% the following 2-3 months.   Companies that have scaled AI are experiencing usage costs that exceed the employees they fired.    - Microsoft invested $5 billion in Claude AI and recently banned their engineers using it due to exorbitant costs.    - Uber blew through their annual AI usage budget by April 2026.   Chinese AI has massively dropped AI usage costs.   - Chinese AI can process about 80% of American AI functions.   - Chinese is up to 95% cheaper than American AI.   - This destroys the American AI profit model.   Tech stock valuations are priced for perfection. This could be the beginning of the end of the AI bubble.   Index (growth) annuities provide:  Double digit potential annual returns on good market years. Grow your money safely, without market risk. Principle is guaranteed. Once gains are locked in, they are guaranteed against market loss.   You don't have to give up strong returns if you want guarantees.

    Long-Term Bond Yields are Hitting Record Highs Worldwide

    The bond market worldwide is in crisis.   The US 30 Year Bond recently rose to 5.2%, the highest since 2007. The UK 30 Year Bond is the highest since 1998. The Japanese 30 Year Bond is the highest level ever recorded.   The primary reason is debt in the western world is at the highest levels ever recorded. Due to the government spending, inflation is increasing in 27 of the 29 largest economies in the world.   Central Banks can impact short-term interest rates but have little affect on long-term interest rates. Expect higher interest rates until the western world gets debt under control.   Stocks and real estate tend to struggle with higher interest rates. Savings, CD's, dividend paying insurance policies, index annuities, and index universal life tend to thrive with higher interest rates.   Insurance companies heavily invest in bonds. When bonds pay higher interest rates, they are more profitable. Annuities and cash value insurance become more profitable.   This is the "Golden Era of Fixed Assets". Index annuities and IUL's are paying historic returns. This is likely to continue and even increase for the foreseeable future.   The best index annuity I have seen in my 27 year career was released recently by one of the largest, A+ rated companies. This annuity product has no fee options, no cap (unlimited upside), and industry leading participation rates. There is no downside market risk. Principle is guaranteed. Once gains are locked in, the gains become the new principle.   Historical average annual returns have been 10-14% for the past 10-20 years!   Contact Ferenc at [email protected] or 866-268-4422 for more info.

    FHA Provided Zero Down Mortgages to Non-Citizens During the Biden Administration

    The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) recently disclosed that they provided zero down mortgages to H-1B visa holders and other non-citizens during the Biden administration. The Trump administration shut this down in June 2025.   FHA used programs designed to help low income US citizens purchase a home. Hard working Americans were getting screwed twice.     1. US taxpayers were funding homes for non-citizens.    2. US citizens were competing to purchase homes at a disadvantage.         a. The non-citizen did not have to contribute a down payment to purchase a home.         b. The citizen had to contribute a 10-20% down payment typically to purchase the same home.   This drove up housing prices, particularly in areas with high numbers of H-1B visa holders.     One of the best index (growth) annuity products has become available in my 27 year career!      - Multiple indexes with 9-11% average annual return indexes the past 10 -20 years.    - No downside market risk. Principle is guaranteed.    - Once gains are locked in, gains are also guaranteed against market loss.    - Can lock in gains at any time.    - A+ rated company.   Contact Ferenc for more info:              [email protected]              yourpersonalbank.com              866-268-4422

    The S&P 500 Hit a New All-Time High. What is Happening with the Economy?

    The S&P 500 has increased about 16% in the past month to a new all-time high.   The earnings have been strong. The recent unemployment numbers are phenomenal!   The economy is showing signs of strength, yet significant volatility remains.   Nearly every market measurement is at extreme high levels. Risk is highest at extreme levels.   Berkshire Hathaway cash is at an all-time high and has sold stock the past 8 quarters in a row.   Oil prices have swung down and back up about 10% in hours recently from news in the Middle East.   60 - 80% of Americans cannot afford the median house in their state.   Personal savings rates are the lowest levels since 2008.   The auto loan crisis continues to increase. About 30% of car buyers who traded in their cars had negative equity.   US Dollar offshore deposits have hit an all-time high. International demand for the US Dollar remains strong. The US Dollar as the world reserve currency is strong and strengthening further.   Long-term bond yields remain high and are likely to continue due to historic federal government debt. This creates an opportunity.   This is the "Golden Era" of fixed assets. This is the best time in 40+ years to consider an Index (Growth) Annuity, Index Universal Life (IUL), or Dividend-Paying Life policy.

    What is Your Personal Bank and Why is Now is an Excellent Time to Consider Adding to Your Portfolio

    Your Personal Bank TM is a financial concept that strategically integrates financial tools from the banking and insurance industries   to continue growth on funds even after you access the funds for other purposes.   Your Personal Bank TM is a two step process.   1. A high cash value policy is established to maximize cash growth, insured, with guarantees, income tax-free, and highly liquid.    2. A bank line of credit is typically established using the cash in the policy as collateral to access funds.   Typically, the interest or dividends earned are higher than the cost of borrowing funds. This creates positive cash flow on money that is spent! This is known as positive arbitrage.    You are able to earn interest on money spent each and nearly every year for the rest of your life. Positive arbitrage has typically been 2-3% annually for the past 40+ years. What if you earned 1-3% on money you spent each year? You would have significantly more money to live on for the rest of your life!   Why is this one of the best times to add Your Personal Bank to your portfolio?   Insurance companies invest heavily in bonds. Bonds are highly interest rate sensitive. Interest rates have increased at the fastest rate in the history of the Federal Reserve. Bond interest rates are 2-3 times higher than they were a couple of years ago. Insurance company profits are increasing as well. Dividends are profits of the company, therefore, dividends are expected to increase.   When the federal government spends more than it receives in tax revenue, it has to sell bonds to issue the currency. This is known as deficit spending. Also, the government does not pay down the existing debt. It sells new bonds at the current interest rate when the previous bond term expires to "roll over" the debt.     Deficit spending is at all-time record levels. The overall debt continues to increase $1 Trillion about every 100 days.    This is causing the federal government to sell record levels of bonds. And the amount of bond selling continues to increase. To entice institutional bond buyers to continue buying bonds, the government is having to offer higher and higher interest rates.   Until the federal government starts spending less than it receives to start paying down the debt, the upward pressure on bond interest rates will continue. Vanguard and others have recently predicted bond interest rates will increase over the next 5-10 years.   The federal government fiscal irresponsibility creates an opportunity.   You can invest in high cash value Your Personal bank TM policies that are insured, with guarantees, income tax-free, highly liquid, and likely to increase returns for the next 5-10 years!     I believe we are in for a chaotic year and a bumpy economic ride this year. It would be wise to protect your assets. Diversify. Reduce your risk. Reduce your tax liability. Increase returns safely. Increase liquidity to take advantage of future opportunities.
