Summary
This week’s theme is opportunities and risks in today’s stock market.
I’m talking about how to find opportunities right now in stocks, what to pay attention to, the risks associated with the upcoming election, whether or not you should be cautious about investing in tech stocks right now, and why the heck the stock market is having a surprisingly good year, despite Covid-related shutdowns and high unemployment.
It’s been such a crazy ride this year in the stock market and the economy, and it’s been a while since I’ve done an investment-themed week here on the One Minute Retirement Tip, so I think it’s a good time for us to look at this and talk about what to pay attention to and where the potential hazards are right now.
