The market just hit a record high on bad economic news — and that’s not a typo. Three Fed officials just voted to raise rates while investors are betting on a September cut, and this week’s CPI and PPI reports could decide who’s right. We’re breaking down what’s really driving this rally, and whether it’s built to last — let’s find out On The Markets.
This week Sonoma Wealth Managing Principals Daren Blonski CFP®, Chris Sipes CFP® and Marketing Director Dano Weir examine:
