The Fed is considering an aggressive rate-hiking plan to keep consumer prices from skyrocketing higher. Some economists feel the Fed’s plan could backfire and do serious harm to the economy, possibly triggering a recession. Should we be concerned now about a worst case scenario? If so, what does this all mean for investors and how do we prepare?

In this episode, we’ll hear from a guest with a long history as a financial market writer and editor. Gary Alexander has been Senior Writer at Navellier since 2009. He helped the company’s namesake, analyst Louis Navellier, in launching Navellier’s Blue Chip Growth and Global Growth newsletters and currently edits Navellier’s weekly Marketmail and writes a weekly Growth Mail column. Before that he spent 20 years as the Senior Executive Editor at InvestorPlace Media where he worked with several top analysts including Navellier. He’s also worked as an editor at other financial publications including Wealth Magazine and Gold Newsletter, and he's authored various investment research reports.

He earned the nickname “The Elder Statsman” when he was 25 years old because he kept pointing out how numbers were being misused in news reports to his newsroom boss. He says the word “elder” was a play on his youth but he’s truly “elder” now! Let’s call him a “wise elder”!
