Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Strap in folks. Starting us out, Jake tells us how the S&P 500 Index, CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index, U.S. Treasuries, and West Texas Intermediate crude oil markets did this week. Normally, August is kind of a meh month, however this year, in true 2024 fashion, it's keeping us on our toes. Listen in to hear a bit about current inflation, house prices, and some of the numbers we like to look at from the BLS and BEA. Jake reminds us about how much power the President has when it comes to lowering the price of eggs, among other things. Then, he goes on a ramble about what quite possibly may be his most favorite topic, property rights. Things get a little smelly when the wombats start leaving poop on things.
