On this episode of The Retirement Matters Podcast, we dive into the latest jobs report and discuss the significant 50 basis point rate cut—the first reduction in nearly four years. This is a pivotal moment, signaling a shift in the Federal Reserve's focus from combating inflation to addressing unemployment. While we won't debate the Fed's decisions, I'll share my thoughts on why this shift may not be the best approach.
Our primary goal is to help you plan for a successful retirement, regardless of market fluctuations. We'll outline essential steps for building a strong retirement portfolio, breaking it down into three key phases as we near the end of the show.
