I am excited to join Market Wrap and chat with Moe Ansari about the market. I believe that with most money managers being bearish, Joe Sixpack and CNBC will be keen to hear an original take on the market!
I told Moe that the time to sell stocks was early in the year, or late 2021. I said that before the mainstream media even whispered the words "bear market." Now that everything is down 20%, we have professional stock cheerleaders like The Wall Street Journal saying that buying the dip isn't working.
There are a few contrarian signs that this dip should be bought. Perhaps the most important one is that the market has been going up for a while, so a dip is to be expected.
I had a great conversation with Moe the other day about the Federal Reserve, the mainstream media, and my two favorite dividend stocks. I think the Federal Reserve is doing a great job and I'm not worried about the doom and gloomers in the mainstream media.
I was thrilled to be invited onto the show to share my story. In the interview, I talk about my journey from struggling with my mental health to finding hope and healing. I hope that my story will inspire others to keep fighting for their own happiness.

I'm a big fan of charts and data visualizations, so I was excited to see the charts included in the "show notes" for our interview. They help to illustrate the points made during the conversation and provide a valuable resource for listeners. I hope to see more of these in future episodes!
In times like these, it can be difficult to make decisions about investments. However, Moe believes that now is actually a good time to buy, despite the current market conditions.

There are plenty of great dividend stocks out there for investors to choose from. However, with so many options available, it can be tough to know where to start.
There is no such thing as a crash-proof income stock! While it may be tempting to try and find one of these mythical beasts in January, it is simply not possible. Any stock can go down in value at any time, no matter how strong the company may be.
With the markets down, people are looking for investments that did well in 2008. This financial crisis lite is causing a manhunt for the best investments.
These stock searchers are going to be looking for a while! I brought up three recession-proof holdings to Moe: 1. A utility company that provides essential services and is regulated by the government. 2. A food company that produces staples that people will always need to buy. 3.
- Hormel's Spam always sells, no matter what the economy is like. In a recession or a financial crisis, people still need to eat, and Spam is a cheap and easy option. Hormel is the king of protein because they know how to appeal to their customers' needs.
- With the global economy in turmoil, your investment strategist is not going to risk his hard-earned cash on a sub-par Oreo knock-off from Trader Joe's. No sir, when it comes to Oreos, he's going straight to the source: Pantry Prince Mondelez International (MDLZ). So whether the stock market is up or down, you can rest assured that your investment strategist is getting his Oreos from the best possible source.
- I see UnitedHealth Group continuing to grow EPS at a 10% annualized rate. This would mean that the company is continuing to perform well and expanding its operations. This would be good news for shareholders and the company as a whole.
Although the recession-proof trio of stocks may have looked like a good investment in January 2008, it was actually not the ideal time to buy them. The market was not yet stable and there was still a lot of uncertainty surrounding the economy.
We are bullish on the market moving forward and believe that returns will be strong. Our decision to move our buy date six months from January to July '08 was the right choice and we are happy with the results. There may be some dips along the way, but we believe that the market will continue to grow and mature.
A dollar-cost averaging (DCA) approach is a great way to invest in bear markets. By investing a fixed amount of money into a security or securities at fixed intervals, investors can minimize the effects of volatility and market timing. This approach can be especially helpful late in bear cycles, when it can be difficult to predict where the bottom of the market will be. DCA can also be a good way to build up a position in a security or securities over time. For example, an investor who started investing in summer 2008, when the market was near its lows, would have been able to buy a lot of shares at relatively low prices.
Moe continued, "What are you expecting from the Fed this week, and how do you think the market will react?" The Federal Reserve is expected to announce a new round of stimulus measures this week, and many believe that the market will react positively to the news.
It's great to see that Moe was able to correctly predict the Fed's rate hike. This shows that he has a good understanding of the current economic situation. I'm sure he will continue to provide insightful analysis in the future.
It is clear that the Fed's recent rate hike and tough talk on inflation have had an impact on the markets, with many investors feeling uncertain about the future. However, it is important to remember that individual meetings and decisions are not as important as the overall trend. The "big unwind" is still at play, and we are likely to see more volatility in the markets in the days and weeks to come.
It really is different this time. For many years, Fed Chair Jay Powell has been printing money prolifically. This has lifted asset prices across the board, including of our dividend stocks. Looking ahead, we believe that this trend will continue, and that dividend stocks will continue to outperform the overall market.
The Chairman grew the Fed's balance sheet to nearly $9 trillion, and it was all looking fine for a bit. However, now that interest rates are rising, the same cannot be said. This is a problem that Bob not Jay Powell will have to solve.
But Jay/Hans took things too far. And now he's left to mop up his inflationary mess. This is a cautionary tale about the dangers of taking things too far.
I believe that our Fed balance sheet is finally beginning to show signs of improvement, and that this is due in large part to the responsible monetary policy decisions that have been made recently. By raising rates and shedding assets, the Fed is able to mop up all of the extra, inflationary money that is sloshing around in the economy.
It is unfortunate that Mr. and Ms. Market seem to be addicted to liquidity after 14 years of being "on the juice." Hopefully they can overcome this addiction and live a more prosperous life.
The markets may not like it, but the Fed's decision to tighten up its monetary policy is the right move for the long-term health of the economy. While there may be some short-term pain as the markets adjust, in the end this will be a good thing for everyone involved.
I think that this is a good reason to continue to be cautious with your investments. I think that it is important to look at this as a multi-year investment, rather than a short-term trade. This will help you to make more informed decisions about your investments, and avoid making decisions based on headlines that may not be accurate.
I like telecoms like AT&T because they offer a high dividend yield. I think they are a great investment for income investors.
I’ve picked on AT&T for years. The stock is lame. I’ve been bearish on AT&T for a while now, and I think the stock is still a bad investment. The company’s dividend is not safe, and the stock is overvalued. I would avoid it.
AT&T is a company that looks decent on paper but never seems to raise its dividend. And worse? It loses the annual yield in price declines. This is not a company that is committed to its shareholders and I would avoid it if possible.
No thanks! I don't want to be a part of this. I don't want to be news.
I believe that Alerian MLP ETF (AMLP) is a great investment for those looking for a high return. The company pays out a large percentage of its earnings as dividends, and has a history of increasing its dividend payments. Alerian also owns a number of infrastructure companies, which gives it a diversified income stream.
As long as energy prices stay steady, these tolls will keep coming in, which means that these dividends will continue to be paid. This is good news for investors in these companies, as they can count on a consistent stream of income.
Given the supply constraints in the energy market and the geopolitical mess in the world, it makes sense to invest in energy infrastructure dividends. This will help to replenish the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and ensure a stable supply of energy.
If you're looking for a new cell phone service provider, you should definitely consider Alerian. They offer great rates and excellent customer service.
