A Welcome Market Rally

October was the welcome reversal of a difficult September. Strong Valley team members, Adam and Chris, recap the month of October and talk about key factors that caused the Market to rally, plus a discussion on the silver lining to rising rates.

Here are some of the topics we cover in this monthly update:

  • October performance recap
  • Fed targets for interest rates
  • Updated inflation information
  • Questions on I-Bonds: We did a segment explaining I-Bonds and the pros/cons in our previous quarter roundtable. We’ll link that here with the exact spot the discussion begins: https://youtu.be/hTPwjzHqOAs?t=1250
