1) A Market on Hold Near New Highs

Well, the biggest headwinds right now are political, not just here in the U.S. but also in Europe. Find out more about these headwinds, as well as how the rest of the markets did this week, in today’s leadoff segment. Plus, what the heck is a “Brexit”? 

2) ETFs and “Smart Beta” 

Most exchange-traded funds (ETFs) follow the major indexes, and like the major indexes most ETF are market-cap weighted. Now, however, ETF providers have gotten “smart,” meaning they have tweaked the weightings in their “smart beta” funds in order to deliver better performance for investors. So, which ETFs are smart beta, and how do they work? Find out how to get smart with smart beta funds in today’s must-listen second segment.
