Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Jake goes at it all by his lonesome this episode and after listening, it seems Jeff is actually the one who brings the comedy to the show. I know, I'm surprised, too. At first, you almost can't blame Jake as he has to start out with the usual S&P 500 Index, CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index, U.S. Treasuries, and West Texas Intermediate crude oil changes. But, with some emphases he almost makes a change of 0.0% sounds super important. Then, he tries to make inflation sound like a good thing. This guy! Finally, he spends a lot of time explaining some of the differences and similarities between the U.S. and China economies. Oh yay!

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Has anyone else ever wondered how Jeff and Jake would start the show if they weren't both bald and bearded? "We are two guys with a full head of hair!" is kind of an odd flex and just doesn't have the same pizzaz. Anyways, they start us off with this 4-day week's S&P 500 Index, CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index, U.S. Treasuries, and West Texas Intermediate crude oil changes. Then, they go on to discuss changes to our international imports and exports, and some of the ways our presidents may or may not affect our economy like some people seem to think.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. To start us off.......... BOO! Jeff and Jake try to scare off the two of you that listen, which seems a bit counterproductive because I thought the goal was more listeners, not less. But hey, I just work here . After starting us out with our exciting update on the S&P 500 Index, CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index, U.S. Treasuries, and West Texas Intermediate crude oil changes for the week, they manage to go on for another 30 minutes about the nothing that happened in the market. Yes folks, you read that right, nothing happened. And for some reason, that was important but unless you finish the episode, you won't know why!!!! muahaha.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Jeff and Jake spent the past few days in Tennessee attending a conference listening and speaking to some of the top economists, which you'd think would help them find something to talk about other than the same old economic and market news. Which is why they, once again, start out with bad disclosure "jokes". Hahaha, joking, but really after giving an updating on this week's S&P 500 Index and CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index hops, skips and jumps they move on to the good stuff. Listen in to hear their reasoning on why the U.S. of A. is doing really well right now despite certain economic numbers being lower or growing slower. They give us some information on Alternative Investments and what you might want to think about before utilizing them.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Grab onto your seats for this. Jeff and Jake start out strong after the intro music and can you guess what they start with? That's right! Disclosures. Then, as you may have guessed, they update us on the weekly S&P 500 Index and CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index numbers. Jake brings up a topic that's probably on most minds, Trump's trial outcome and how it might affect the markets. Is there doom and gloom in our market's future because of politics or the opposite? And, to be honest, I don't think the two of them have used the word "recommend" so many times in a single podcast. Consider yourselves lucky as Jake pulls back just as they start down the rabbit hole on return calculations and how they are obtained, because trust me, they can go on about that for a LOOOOOOOONG time.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Before we get started, we will give you a moment to get your preferred search engine ready. Now, go ahead and type in the word "bifurcation" (thank the tech gods for spell check). This episode, Jeff and Jake start out with their weekly rambling on the S&P 500 Index and CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index and the little bit that happened in the week to affect those. Keep on listening (but why?) to hear about a $444 billion oppsie, the bifurcation of the world markets, interest rates (again?), and a few other excitingish topics.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. This week Jeff and Jake start out strong and talk about giving everyone a good pencil...... Listen in to hear their update on this week's S&P 500 Index and CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index movement and what happened this week to affect it. There is even a treat in the show as Jake starts randomly pressing buttons and gives you a bit of music to listen to (which is probably the best 3 seconds of the entire show.) I'd also like to give a big thanks to Inquisitor John for giving them something to talk about this week, the Dow Jones Industrial Average and its history.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. As is typical, which is not a term often used in the same sentence with Jeff and Jake, the two bearded, baldies give us a recap on this week's S&P 500 Index and CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index movement. Listen in on their short talks on option trading, student population fluctuation from large districts to smaller districts, and two questions everyone should go and ask the financial institution regarding their IRA.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. On this episode Jeff and Jake head off the beaten path and instead of talking about something happening in the world now or in the very recent past, instead take a look at the history of Ownership. Listen in to find out how to prevent your property from being escheated (that word is a lot more fun to pronounce.) By the end, they might even give us a science lesson splitting Atoms, and axes just don't cut it.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Have you ever heard or read in the news that a company is doing a stock buyback and thought to yourself, "What in tarnation would a company buy its own stock for?". Listen in as Jeff and Jake answer that question and give us an update on what happened with the S&P 500 Stock Index (SPX) along with their other favored indicator, the CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index this week. And, if you make it to the end, which is a long way from the beginning, you might just have an understanding of not only company stock buybacks, but also US Treasury buybacks.
