Description:

This week, I’ve got 3 major financial headlines for you..

  • First up, the stock market ended the week up +1.5%, but is still in bear market territory - what were the major market movers last week?
  • Next, energy prices are on the rise again due to OPEC. What is OPEC and why do they have such sway over the energy market?
  • Finally, we got multiple data points on the labor market last week. What does it say about the health of employment and your job security?

… after that, this week I’m taking a deep dive with NYU Professor Howard Yaruss to talk about his new book, and our Q4 FFM Book Club pick, Understandable Economics. Learn why we both believe in the power of economic and financial literacy, as well as his take on some current major economic issues and policies.
