Markets Turn Tail… Again When Once Upon a Time in America was released in 1984, the late Roger Ebert called it “an absolute masterwork of cinema.” The film would go on to win multiple awards and remains a fan favorite on my family’s movie list. There’s just one little problem: The full version is almost 4 hours long. As riveting as the “epic poem of violence and greed” can be, I often sit through the movie feeling as if it’ll never end. Investors watching the markets can relate. Last week, the S&P 500 recovered 6%, just to drop again this week. Short-term traders might call it a dead cat bounce while longer-term investors would call it a gratuitously long “masterwork” by the Fed. And we aren’t even at intermission yet. With interest rates still on track to rise at least another 150 basis points, investors need to switch tactics and buy stocks that benefit from rising rates.

White House Tells Americans: ''Suck It Up'' For The Sake Of The "Liberal World Order" Authored by Paul Joseph Watson via Summit News, The White House has told Americans they must continue to endure crippling high gas prices in order to preserve the “liberal world order” and support Ukraine. Yes, really. The comments were made by Biden advisor Brian Deese during a CNN interview when he was asked about the cost of living crisis. “What do you say to those families that say, listen, we can’t afford to pay $4.85 a gallon for months, if not years?” the host asked Deese. “This is about the future of the Liberal World Order and we have to stand firm,” Deese responded. CNN: "What do you say to those families that say, ''listen, we can''t afford to pay $4.85 a gallon for months, if not years?’" BIDEN ADVISOR BRIAN DEESE: "This is about the future of the Liberal World Order and we have to stand firm." pic.twitter.com/LWilWSo72S — Breaking911 (@Breaking911) July 1, 2022 Countless Americans couldn’t care less about preserving the “liberal world order” in support of Ukraine, and would undoubtedly rather put America first.

PGIM Total Return Bond A ( PDBAX ): Bond funds offer both yield and stability Vanguard Long Term Investment Graded Fund ( VWESX ) is no exception. During the current downturn, bond prices have been following stock prices down iShares Floating Rate Bond ETF ( FLOT ) offers more safety than other bond funds. If inflation has peaked, bonds will look like a great deal Source: J.J. Gouin / Shutterstock.com Many small investors own no bonds. We think of markets, and our portfolios, solely in terms of common stock. That’s a mistake. When interest rates are rising, it’s safer to lend your money than to put it in a company’s stock. Bonds offer safe yields. When interest rates are falling, bonds offer capital gains. You may feel put off by “falling” bond prices. When interest rates rise, the price of bonds from even the best creditors fall . If you see hyper-inflation ahead, buying bonds looks silly . Over the last year, as interest rates have risen, the total return on most bond funds has been negative.

What does this mean for Bitcoin? Are the nearly 12-year increases at risk today? I will try to present arguments in favor of Bitcoin and key cryptocurrencies remaining afloat, and point to the risks that may cause further sell-offs or, at worst, a record-breaking bad market sentiment. What speaks for Bitcoin''s recovery? -The price of Bitcoin in the past has recovered fairly quickly after breaking below the 200-day moving average of 200MA that we saw last Saturday; -The blockchain technology behind Bitcoin is of interest to the world''s largest financial institutions, such as BlackRock, JP Morgan, and companies such as Microsoft or KPMG, which use it to optimize transaction processes and approve payments; -In time, access to the Internet will also be granted to the inhabitants of the currently poorer regions of the Earth enjoying positive natural growth (Africa, South America), thanks to which by 2030 the number of Internet users may even double.

Bitcoin & The Resurgence Of The Bearer Asset Authored by Scott Hill via BombThrower.com, If you’ve seen the film “Die Hard” you’ll notice the villain is trying to steal strange assets called Bearer Bonds . Why did this entire asset class disappear from the modern financial landscape? Which properties of these long forgotten assets are important for the future the Crypto industry is trying to build? Why did governments around the world outlaw the Bearer Asset in the first place? History of the Bearer Asset Until the 1980s, bearer assets were very common. Bonds would be issued on paper and bondholders would present the instruments physically to receive payment. In fact the paper certificates would often have small tear off sections that were redeemable for interest payments. This record keeping mechanism is why we still call the interest payments from Bonds, “coupons”. In the pre-digital era assets could be represented in two ways: Registered instruments , where every owner was recorded in a centralized registry.

One month after Sri Lanka defaulted on its sovereign debt for the first time in its history, global bondholders are looking to pick up the pieces through various forms of recourse. This week, numerous foreign holders of Sri Lankan debt began to take action in an attempt to recoup funds from the nation of 22 million with an economy that recently appointed Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe said has «completely collapsed». Earlier this week, Hamilton Reserve Bank – holder of more than $250 million of Sri Lanka’s 5.875 percent bond due July 25 – filed a legal suit in a New York federal court seeking full payment of principal and interest. The Saint Kitts and Nevis-headquartered lender accused Sri Lanka of excluding certain bondholders from an announced restructuring, underlining that the default is being «orchestrated by officials at the highest levels of government». Separately, more than 30 asset managers holding international Sri Lankan bonds formed a creditor group to start debt restructuring talks with the island nation.

Putting your money into dividend-paying stocks is a safe investment when the market takes a dip. People who buy dividend stocks can expect a steady, consistent stream of income that they can use to invest in more companies or cover those essential bills. At the same time, growth stocks, which provide much higher returns over time than most other investments, are trading at historical discounts. Louis Navellier last week wrote that “safety and stability are cool again” and that pretty much sums up our choices today. They offer both solid income and capital gains growth, just what your portfolio needs in a market like we’re seeing these days. 7 Great Dividend Stocks Under $25 Here are seven dividend stocks that are worth your investment capital as the long, hot summer sets in, inflation continues unabated and volatility seems to be a constant companion of retail investors: Ticker Company Current Price BTT Blackrock Municipal 2030 Target Term Trust $22.74 MAIN Main Street Capital Corporation $36.80 PBA Pembina Pipeline Corporation $40.36 STAG STAG Industrial, Inc. $32.09 LTC LTC Properties, Inc. $35.58 SBR Sabine Royalty Trust $83.32 DX Dynex Capital, Inc. $16.16 BlackRock Municipal 2030 Target Term Fund (BTT) BlackRock Municipal 2030 Target Term Fund (NYSE: BTT ) is designed to be liquidated in a few years.

While the shaky ground that the equities sector is walking on tempts the idea of acquiring popular investments, you might want to give the top retirement stocks to buy another look. No, these underlying companies aren’t exactly bringing sexy back. But chances are, they won’t put you on your back — at least not like growth-oriented trades that may be vulnerable to extreme volatility. First off, the top retirement stocks to buy are associated with proven, reliable businesses. Because of their track record, they are less likely to crumble, even under sizable market pressure. Better yet, during a downturn, consumers will gravitate toward the essentials, which naturally benefits blue-chip entities. Therefore, you can at least sleep a little easier at night. Second, the top retirement stocks to buy offer a balanced mix of capital gains potential with decent dividend payouts. Such an attribute will be particularly important during this inflationary cycle, where the greenback has dropped 11.3% of purchasing power between April 2020 through April 2022. 7 of the Hottest ETFs to Buy Right Now Of course, you want to stay diversified since no guarantees exist in the capital markets.

Fearing Looming Bubble, State Treasurers Square Up Against ESG''s "Invisible Fist" Authored by Nathan Worcester via The Epoch Times, Environmental, social and governance ratings batter states, choke off capital from fossil fuel industry… State treasurers spoke out against the imposition of environmental, social and governance ( ESG ) scoring on public money in a June 8 press conference, with one official comparing it to the social justice-driven push for universal homeownership that helped trigger the Great Recession. “I would be very concerned about investing in green energy right now,” said Utah State Treasurer Marlo Oaks, in response to a question from The Epoch Times. He did not rule out the possibility of an ESG bubble similar to the housing one that burst during the late 2000s —an event that drove the nation’s worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. That bubble was inflated in part by two government-sponsored enterprises, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Beginning in earnest with the Clinton administration’s 1995 National Homeownership Strategy , which committed to “expanding creative financing” for home buyers, the firms continually reduced the requirements for loans.

Investing in REITs, or real estate investment trusts, remains one of the best inflation protection tactics in 2022. However, choosing which individual REITs to buy can still be a daunting task susceptible to asset selection risk. So investors may choose to buy exchange-traded funds (ETFs) focused on REITs instead. These REIT ETFs offer wide diversification benefits right from the onset. Besides REITs’ well known inflation protection capabilities, investing in REIT ETFs helps diversify stock and bond market risks in a portfolio and boost investment income. Some of the selected ETFs on this list boast high income yields, while others will offer international diversification among REITs, and some are sector specific. Sector-specific REIT ETFs will tilt the odds in your favor if growth is what you are targeting. Datacenter focused REITs, industrial real estate developers and cell tower landlords still promise strong growth, while office and healthcare REITs could make it a value plays. Although the stock market has sold off so far in 2022, investors still find pockets of value and attractive investment options as seen in a net increase of funds invested in exchange-traded funds (ETFs) over the past three months.

JPM Top Exec Mary Erdoes: "There''s A Reason" Junior Bankers Must Work 72 Hour Weeks As debate continues to rage about what the "appropriate" amount of work is for junior investment bankers, Mary Erdoes, chief executive officer of JPMorgan Chase & Co.s asset and wealth management business is weighing in with an opinion that the snowflakes complaining about their workload might not like. Erdoes says that "there''s a reason" that junior bankers are forced to work 12 hour days, six days a week, according to Bloomberg. She says the hours will "help them master the job in two to three years" instead of the five years it would otherwise take. If you think 10,000 hours is about what you need to master any subject, if someone comes in and has a regular, eight-hour-a-day job, five days a week, its gonna take about five years to have a base-level mastery, she told David Rubenstein on Bloomberg Wealth. She continued: On Wall Street, its more like 12 hours a day, six days a week. That cuts you down to about two and a half years before you become mastered in something. She also told the story of starting in the industry by balancing her grandmother''s checkbook at the age of 6, earning a few of "a few dollars a month". 2,200 new analysts will be starting training with JP Morgan this summer.
