‘The Allan Small Financial Show’ delivers insights, tips, and commentary on current events from an investment perspective, providing practical advice for people looking to invest and navigate changing stock markets. Allan analyzes what’s happening in the news… in the markets… and how the two impact investment decisions. This weekly podcast includes Allan’s biweekly Sunday Money Show with CFRB Newstalk 1010 as well as tips on what investors should be considering over the next 5-10 business days.
Bond yields keep climbing, key jobs and inflation data is days away, and we’re heading into the weakest month of the year for the S&P 500. Here are the top three things to consider before you make your next investment decision.
Allan breaks down why the 10-year Treasury pushing toward 5% matters for mortgages, borrowing and stock valuations, why US debt crossing $40 trillion is part of the story, and how the Middle East conflict is feeding straight through oil prices into inflation. He also looks ahead to jobs numbers from the US and Canada this Friday, US CPI on September 11th and Canadian CPI on the 14th, plus whether the Fed moves at its September 16th meeting. Finally, the September seasonality question: since 1950, September is the only month the S&P 500 has finished higher less than half the time. Do you have a question about investing?
