It doesn’t make sense when you can get a higher return for a 1-year bond than a 3-year bond, but that is what’s happening right now. It’s called an ‘inverted yield curve’ and it often signals a recession, which some say is still possible. So, what does that mean for a retiree's portfolio?   In this episode of the Retirement Solution, Jon Hicks unpacks the complicated narrative of today’s economy. While the term "recession" has been swirling around, it hasn't fully materialized. Meanwhile, increasing life expectancies mean that locking in rates for three, five, or even ten years could be more beneficial than you think.   Uncover ideas to help protect principal and maximize earnings, all while weathering potential economic storms. Understand how the inverted yield curve may benefit your retirement plans and discover why some savvy investors are making the most of this unique financial climate.   Don’t let the economy control your financial future - Connect with Jon and his team at J Hagan Capital to learn about what opportunities you may have.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
