With inflation easing to 2.9% for the first time in two years, we're now entering a particularly critical phase in the economic recovery. Richard and James are back in the trenches to guide you through it. As always, it’s about sticking to your investment plan during these volatile times.
What’s been the impact of interest rates on spending? Richard and James speculate that higher interest rates have, somewhat paradoxically, both curtailed economic activity and increased spending among wealthier consumers, due to higher returns on cash and fixed-income investments.
Plus, watch out for financial scams! They’re getting increasingly sophisticated, targeting older people with large retirement savings. There’s a prominent scam called ‘pig butchering," where scammers isolate and manipulate victims, often by posing as legitimate entities like banks or government officials. Be vigilant, use safeguards such as two-factor authentication, different passwords, and be cautious with electronic payment platforms like Zelle. James highlights the importance of financial institutions and advisors playing their part, and being proactive in recognizing red flags to protect clients from falling victim to these scams.
