Despite DeepSeek Scare, The Market Is "In A Good Spot" | Lance Roberts & Adam Taggart
Well, despite a week of high uncertainty -- the DeepSeek surprise, earnings releases for many of the Magnificent 7 stocks, a terrible aviation disaster and the declaration of tariffs against some of America's largest trading partners -- the markets actually seem to be doing fine.
The bulls are back in control and, technically-speaking, the action in stocks looks robust at the moment.
Will this sustain? And for how long?
Portfolio manager Lance Roberts and I discuss this, as well as the latest inflation data, the latest GDP data, the increasingly-struggling US consumer, and Lance's firms latest trades.

Lacy Hunt: It's Not Inflation But DEFLATION That's The Real Threat To Our Economy
Recession fears seem to have faded from the headlines, as the "no landing" scenario seems to have won out -- on Wall Street at least.
Attention is much more focused on a possible boost to economic growth from the policies of the new Trump administration, as well as concern that inflation could prove stickier and more stubborn to tame than the Fed hopes, resulting in higher for longer bond yields.
So, were the deflationists wrong?
For a true expert's view, we have the great fortune to sit down today with one of the greatest living economists, Dr. Lacy Hunt, former Senior Economist to the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, as well as several of the world's largest global banks. He now serves as Executive Vice President and Chief Economist of Hoisington Investment Management Company.

Get Ready For A Wild Time In The Markets As Volatility Increases | Cem Karsan
When today's guest was on this program back in September, he predicted the market would start to become more volatile.
He didn't necessarily think that would mean lower stock prices into the end of 2024. And he was proven correct.
But he did express worry that as we entered 2025, continued higher volatility could start to become a problem for investors.
Does he still think that?
