Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Jake starts us out with our weekly dose of market movement. Then, as far as I can tell, he starts trying to say the ABCs but in a really weird way. He starts out BEA, then GDP followed by PCE and still he started several other times after that, poor guy. We may need to send him back to grade school. Jake explains how much the President, whoever that may be, has on the actual economy. In the last bit of the episode, Jake gives us some advice, though he can't even say the alphabet correctly so it's totally on you if you decide to follow it.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Healthcare is something I think we all have a love/hate relationship with. We all want to be healthy and happy, however we don't want to pay 3 fingers and a pinky toe to do it. In this episode, Jake speaks about some of the reasons why it is difficult to compare our healthcare to other nations. Generally, little is known about the complex relationships between drug companies and hospitals and just why those relationships can cause prices to be unknown when you're having a procedure done. Then you throw in insurance companies and all hell breaks loose. Listen in to gain a bit of insight and just be happy he didn't go on for longer.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Jake droned on alone although for less time than we're used to having to bear. You may notice a slight difference in this podcast. We're trying out a little change. If you didn't notice anything then we've succeeded! But I won't tell you at what....... Jake updates us on this week's S&P 500 Index, CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index, U.S. Treasuries, and West Texas Intermediate crude oil markets for this week. He goes on to tell us a few topics we've noticed that effected those markets. Listen in to find out what the Fed is looking for before they decide on what to do with interest rates which should come out towards the end of the month.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. I think Jeff and Jake may have drunk from the wrong juice this morning, or maybe it was long past its "best by" date. The two alien-like beings start out with an explanation on why they like to reference the S&P 500 Index to the CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index and further, update us on the 4th of July week changes between those, U.S. Treasuries, and West Texas Intermediate crude oil markets. Something came up about consistently inconsistent data... or maybe it was inconsistently consistent data? Who knows...They continue on to spend quite a bit of time on shipping, both domestic and international, all over the world, and why that affects prices so much.

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.
