Podcast appearances and mentions of eddie ghabour

Eddie Ghabour doesn't consider Moody's U.S. credit downgrade "meaningful at all," instead posing the argument that the U.S. economy will only accelerate. He says elevated inflation and steady yields will be the "new normal" for consumers, though he doesn't see that as a weakness. Eddie sees the consumer discretionary sector as one with significant risk-reward, adding that semiconductors like Nvidia (NVDA) will lead the next market uptrend.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Eddie Ghabour believes economic slowdown is "not fully priced in," bracing for more selling action across markets.

He advises investors to not buy the dip in anything except gold until there's more clarity. Eddie sees Walmart (WMT) as "having the pulse on middle America."======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Eddie Ghabour returns to the Watch List to talk about investing in a volatile market. He points to ETFs as alternatives to gaining exposure in big names like Tesla (TSLA), Amazon (AMZN) and JPMorgan Chase (JPM). With Nvidia's (NVDA) earnings about to take center stage, Eddie thinks the company can run "significantly higher" if it tackles DeepSeek worries well. He notes risks heading into the summer for other Mag 7 names but believes investors will see notable gains until then.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

"This is what the market needed," says Eddie Ghabour on a recent slowdown in yields. However, he expects the 10-Year Treasury Yield to pass 5%, which will lead to a "double-digit" correction as early as the second quarter. Eddie believes a recovery will follow, telling investors that buy tech names like Nvidia (NVDA) and Palantir (PLTR) on the dip. ======== Schwab Network ======== Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

It's all eyes on the Fed ahead of what many expect to be a 25bps rate cut. Eddie Ghabour warns investors to expect no more than one or two cuts in 2025. However, he says markets will be okay with it as long as the economy stays strong. He describes "pockets of weakness" that may reside in the market, urging investors to keep an eye on bonds and inflation next year. ======== Schwab Network ======== Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Stimulus Is Out Of The Question - Eddie Ghabour Speaker Pelosi panned stimulus for the airlines than anyone else. The airlines are going to see major layoffs. The bottom lines is that there are certain areas that need stimulus and any bill should be targeted, rather than bailing out states and municipalities. Beware of polls. From a market standpoint Eddie is cautious now and very bullish for next year. It could very well be a buying opportunity. Will the courts finally fulfill their responsibility and throw out the Covid restrictions. Florida is the test case.

Just how fast does life go by? We want to talk about retirement because we usually don’t. Everything else tends to draw our attention away from this essential topic, but if we put it off, we can face some serious consequences. Early in life, the days seem so long and arduous and when we wake up in the morning, we think the day seems to go on forever and there is so much to do. Then later, we realize a week has gone by or a month has gone by. Then, oftentimes, we look back and the decades have gone by. It is at this point where many people realize that life had gone by too fast and the retirement inquires or planning they were going to do never got done. And now what? Guest, Eddie Ghabour, co-owner and managing partner of Key Advisors Group, LLC, returns to share how to prevent letting life pass your retirement by or even “goodbye.” Eddie graduated from York College of Pennsylvania with a degree in Economics and Finance and in1998, he began a successful career in financial planning. In 2000, he started Key Advisors Group, LLC with his business partner and since then has qualified for the prestigious, MDRT (membership is based on sales criteria), Court of the Table, and Top of the Table honors each year. Eddie is an Investment Advisor Representative who offers investment advisory services through WFG Advisors, LP. He is also insurance-licensed in Delaware and author of The Common-Sense Bull, The Keys to the Good Life Before and During Retirement. Specializing in money management, Eddie also focuses on retirement and estate planning strategies for his clients, He works with local CPAs and attorneys implementing tax saving strategies to help clients protect their hard-earned assets from unnecessary taxation. He is also a member of the local Chamber of Commerce and The National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors. Eddie, his wife Lauren, and their sons Eddie and Elijah reside in Milton, Delaware. In his free time, Eddie volunteers as a coach for Lewes Little League. When Eddie is not working or coaching on the baseball diamond he can usually be found enjoying the sun at the beach, or on the golf course. In many areas of our life, we can put things on the back burner, such as our finance, and not take a hard look at them under there is a situation that is dire. At that point, it is too late and you have to resort to taking drastic measures like selling off prized possessions or taking out loans and stacking up debt. In many areas of life, such as fitness, a professional athlete will have a personal trainer help them get to achieve a goal. The athlete becomes accountable. When we become accountable to ourselves and dedicate ourselves to something important, we succeed. This is Eddie’s coaching style, where about every 3 months he is coaching you to achieve your goals and help you succeed. Stop for a minute. Don’t let time just pass your retirement by. www.thecommonsensebull.com www.facebook.com/commonsensebull www.twitter.com/commonsensebull www.linkedin.com/in/eddie-ghabour-767036a

With the sudden emergence of  the Coronavirus Pandemic, companies like GM are cutting their dividends. It's what they have to do to survive. While it was very clear, for very long that the stock market would eventually crash, no one foresaw a pandemic.

Walmart jumped pre-market after the company reported Q3 EPS that beat expectations and boosted its year end earnings outlook. The largest US retailer reported Q3 adjusted EPS $1.16, stronger than the estimate of $1.09 and 8 cents higher than a year ago on revenue of $127.99 billion, slightly below the consensus est. of $128.67 billion which was a $3.1 billion or 2.5% increase from a year earlier. Q3 adjusted EPS excluded a non-cash impairment charge of $0.06, net of tax, and an unrealized gain of $0.05, net of tax, on the company’s equity investment in JD.com. While profit margins dipped modestly, down 36bps to 24.5%, the bottom line beat was largely due to the 5.4% drop in the effective tax rate, which declined to 24.1% in Q3. Comp sales ex gas in the U.S. rose 3.2%, beating the 3.1% consensus growth estimate and marking the 21st straight gain. Both the number of customers and the size of their average orders were up, fueling the growth. There was more good news for Walmart’s online penetration as web sales in the U.S. rose 41%, beating its expected growth rate for the full year. As Bloomberg notes, "it has rapidly expanded its online grocery service and in recent weeks debuted a new offering in three cities where employees put the food right into customers’ fridges. Profitability has been a concern on the dot-com side, though, and Biggs said in prepared remarks that the company needs to sell more general merchandise, which delivers better margins than bread and bananas." Sam’s Club, Walmart's warehouse division that accounts for 11% of its revenue, was the one weak spot as comparable sales there rose only 0.6%, just one-third the pace analysts had been expecting. A drop in tobacco sales negatively hit sales by 350 basis points, it said. The chain is still without a leader a month after Sam’s CEO John Furner was tapped to replace Greg Foran as head of Walmart’s U.S. stores division. Biggs provided no update on the search Thursday. Commenting on the results, Walmart CEO said "Walmart U.S. business saw strong comp sales and expense leverage, and operating income grew for the sixth consecutive quarter." Echoing the CEO, Chief Financial Officer Brett Biggs told Bloomberg that "It was a really good third quarter," adding that he’s “pleased” with how shoppers are responding so far to the rollout of early holiday deals. Most importantly, Walmart now sees full-year adjusted earnings per share increasing "slightly" compared to last year, after saying in August either a slight decrease or slight increase was possible. FY20 Adjusted EPS is now expected to increase slightly compared to FY19 adjusted EPS , including Flipkart, and is expected to increase by a high single-digit percentage range, excluding Flipkart. Expectations for the dilution from Flipkart remain unchanged, excluding a non-cash impairment charge. The effective tax rate is now expected to range between 25% and 25.5%. As Bloomberg notes, "this is the second time this year Walmart has upgraded its outlook. The rosier view contrasts with more downbeat expectations from retailers like Macy’s Inc., which slashed its profit guidance in August. Earlier this month, Moody’s cut its expectations for the entire U.S. retail sector, citing “intense competition in the fight for market share.” Walmart, buoyed by its market-leading grocery business and big investments to improve e-commerce, has largely avoided the turmoil that’s afflicted many mainstream merchants over the past two years." "Walmart continues to position itself near the very top of global retail by any measure, and will continue to get stronger as time goes on, increasing the pressure on the rest of global retail," Charlie O’Shea, an analyst at Moody’s, said in a note. Walmart shares surged as much as 3.9% in pre-market trading, putting the shares on course to open above the all-time highest closing price recorded on Wednesday. Rival Target Corp. also gained in pre-market trading.

Echoing the CEO, Chief Financial Officer Brett Biggs told Bloomberg that "It was a really good third quarter," adding that he’s “pleased” with how shoppers are responding so far to the rollout of early holiday deals. Most importantly, Walmart now sees full-year adjusted earnings per share increasing "slightly" compared to last year, after saying in August either a slight decrease or slight increase was possible. FY20 Adjusted EPS is now expected to increase slightly compared to FY19 adjusted EPS , including Flipkart, and is expected to increase by a high single-digit percentage range, excluding Flipkart. Expectations for the dilution from Flipkart remain unchanged, excluding a non-cash impairment charge. The effective tax rate is now expected to range between 25% and 25.5%. As Bloomberg notes, "this is the second time this year Walmart has upgraded its outlook. The rosier view contrasts with more downbeat expectations from retailers like Macy’s Inc., which slashed its profit guidance in August. Earlier this month, Moody’s cut its expectations for the entire U.S. retail sector, citing “intense competition in the fight for market share.” Walmart, buoyed by its market-leading grocery business and big investments to improve e-commerce, has largely avoided the turmoil that’s afflicted many mainstream merchants over the past two years." "Walmart continues to position itself near the very top of global retail by any measure, and will continue to get stronger as time goes on, increasing the pressure on the rest of global retail," Charlie O’Shea, an analyst at Moody’s, said in a note. Walmart shares surged as much as 3.9% in pre-market trading, putting the shares on course to open above the all-time highest closing price recorded on Wednesday. Rival Target Corp. also gained in pre-market trading.

 President Donald Trump said on Monday that China is ready to come back to the negotiating table and the two countries will start talking very seriously. Speaking at the G-7 summit in Biarritz in France, Trump praised Chinese President Xi Jinping and welcomed his desire for a deal. “China called last night our top trade people and said ‘let’s get back to the table’ so we will be getting back to the table and I think they want to do something. They have been hurt very badly but they understand this is the right thing to do and I have great respect for it. This is a very positive development for the world,” Trump said. “I think we are going to have a deal,” he added. “They have supply chains that are unbelievably intricate and people are all leaving and they are going to other countries, including the United States by the way, we are going to get a lot of them too.” Meanwhile in Beijing, Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said he was not aware that a phone call between the two sides had taken place. When pressed on the details of the call, Trump said he didn’t want to elaborate and reiterated that the U.S. had multiple calls at the highest levels with the Chinese. “I don’t want to talk about calls. We have had calls at the highest level but I don’t want to talk about that. The vice chairman put out a statement last night that was a statement and saying that he wants to make a deal and he wants calm,” Trump said. “Our economy is phenomenal, best it has ever been and that’s despite the trade deals. When we get these deals done our country will be transformed, it will be monetarily transformed. It is such a difference from the horrible, horrible one-sided deals that we had in the past. And frankly, past administrations should be ashamed of themselves for allowing that,” Trump said. On Sunday, Trump said the U.S. and China were getting along very well and were talking. “Actually we are getting along very well with China right now, we are talking. I think they want to make a deal much more than I do. I’m getting a lot of money in tariffs its coming in by the billions. We’ve never gotten 10 cents from China, so we will see what happens,” Trump said on Sunday. Before leaving for the G-7, Trump said he would raise existing duties on $250 billion in Chinese products to 30% from 25% on Oct. 1. Additionally, he said, tariffs on another $300 billion of Chinese goods, which start to take effect on Sept. 1, will now be 15% instead of 10%. At the G-7, Trump said Sunday he could declare the escalating U.S.-China trade war as a national emergency if he wanted to. “In many ways this is an emergency,” Trump said of the ongoing trade battle. “I could declare a national emergency, I think when they steal and take out and intellectual property theft anywhere from $300 billion to $500 billion a year and when we have a total lost of almost a trillion dollars a year for many years,” Trump said, adding that he had no plan right now to call for a national emergency. U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin doubled down on the White House’s latest punch in the trade war by calling out Beijing for unfair trade practices. “We do not have free trade with them,” Mnuchin said Sunday on the sidelines of the G-7 meeting in France. “It’s a one way street: They have free entrance into our markets, our investments, our companies and we do not have the same thing there. That’s the only reason why we are in this situation with China. If China would agree to a fair and balanced relationship, we would sign that deal in a second,” he added.

Just a few short months ago we were assured by the Fed that rate increases would be continuing into the future. Now we're looking at rate cuts, perhaps as early as 2 weeks from now. What's driving the Fed and are they trying to recover from a huge mistake or are they making an even bigger one now? Often trying to decipher the Fed's moves is as bad as trying to predict women's fashions. Rising hemlines and plunging necklines, you never know till you see the cover of Vogue.

Terri Spath, chief investment officer at Sierra Investment Management said that the market has plenty of current opportunities, but investors will be better served being selective and picking specific securities rather than buying indexes, noting that the market tends to 'take the escalator up, but the elevator down' meaning there could be significant bumps in the road ahead. Also on the show, Leonard Wright of the AICPA discusses retirees' most significant worries, author and financial adviser Eddie Ghabour talks about what it means to be a 'Common-Sense Bull' in this market, and Kyle Guske of New Constructs discusses why companies reaching for certain balance-sheet results are creating a dangerous false narrative.

This is why Americans don’t save — even when they know better The journey to retirement can be perilous Americans know they need to save for retirement, but find it difficult to do so. Todd Kunsman started preparing for retirement in 2011, only a year out of college, but he didn’t take it seriously until three years later. He had been contributing to a 401(k) plan, but not enough for a match. He’s moved companies twice since then, and has rolled his assets into an individual retirement account. At his current job, a startup, he doesn’t have a defined-contribution plan, but he maxes out a Roth IRA. “For me, a Roth IRA of $6,000 a year is really not enough,” he said. Kunsman, who is the blogger behind Invested Wallet in addition to his full-time job in marketing, is saving about 60% of his income and working a side hustle. His goal is to retire in his 40s, if he chooses to by then. He’s had to overcome numerous hurdles first, including paying down student loans, increasing his income, learning more about investing and putting away retirement savings while also living on his own and paying off his car. “I left money on the table without realizing it because of my financial illiteracy at the time,” he said.

It's all over town, the Bezos's are getting a divorce. Is that enough to move Amazon's stock and the market? Probably not and it's likely just a diversion. But a costly one at that. Eddie thinks we're just going through a routine stock market correction and that the market will soon bounce back. Hopefully, he's right and the economy will keep buzzing along. But there's definitely some very strong headwinds, especially escalating debt that will have to be dealt with.
