10-2-24 Shutdown, Strikes, & Volatility: Safeguarding Your Portfolio Now

A brief recap of the VP-debate; market futures are lower in search of a catalyst, and dislike the uncertainty preceeding an election. Markets have pulled backk thanks to investor exhaustion; Oil prices are on the rise amid escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, creating short-term risks until resolved. The Port Strike isn't 'the thing' that will trigger markets. Look for alternative shipping as opportunities to invest (Daggett makes Jimmy Hoffa look good). The Status of Social Security: What happens if SS benefits are cut? Financial planning should not include/depend upon SS. Another Roberts' Saga: Lance forgets to take out the trash. The inability of the government to pass a budget (not since Obama in office). Who really pays the most in taxes? (Article link below) Why the tax code needs changing (but beware the consequences).

3:17 - Markets Prepare to Pullback to Rally
14:49 - Israel/Iran & Port Strike - This Isn't 'The Thing'
30:28 - The Status of Social Security
44:29 - Who Really Pays the Most Taxes?
