A good retirement plan depends on assumptions.

How much you save. How your expenses may change. How your investment style fits your timeline.

The market is sending two messages at once.

Stocks continue to make new highs, helped by strong earnings and a steadier labor market. But inflation is still running hot, and the Fed’s response could shape what comes next.

This week’s Market Commentary breaks down what investors should keep in view: https://bixlerfinancial.com/insights/blog/market-commentary-strong-earnings-labor-market-improvement-help-send-sp-500-to-sixth-straight-week-of-gains/

Most investors know they want growth.

A Fed leadership change. A seasonal market saying. A GDP report that looks soft at first glance.

A closer look at what investors may want to understand before drawing conclusions: https://bixlerfinancial.com/insights/blog/the-glass-half-full-powell-stays-ep-009/

Here’s a closer look: https://bixlerfinancial.com/insights/blog/market-commentary-stay-in-may-has-been-ok/
