A symbiotic organization, ABA is a network of accomplished individuals in an environment where one can develop personal associations with a structured and supportive system of giving and receiving business. The ABA boasts a select membership of diverse senior-level executives, high net worth business owners, and both active and retired pro athletes. By invitation only, high-level corporate and business decision-makers and prominent athletes intermingle. To achieve success, businesses must utilize effective marketing tools, secure new customers to generate repeat business and provide superior customer service that engenders loyalty. The ABA provides an environment to do this and more. In late 2020, Peter closed all professional athlete related business.

AI Market Disruption, the HALO Investment Strategy, and Why Dividend Income Still Wins for Retirees

The Tom Dupree Show

Artificial intelligence is shaking up the stock market — and if you’re in retirement or thinking about retirement, you need to understand what it means for your portfolio. On this week’s episode of The Financial Hour of The Tom Dupree Show, hosts Tom Dupree Jr., James Dupree, and Mike Johnson break down how a single AI research report triggered a major Nasdaq sell-off, why “HALO” stocks are emerging as the safe haven trade for retirement investors, and how a dividend income strategy provides the stability that pure growth investing simply cannot match during volatile markets. With the Nasdaq down nearly 2.75% year to date and the Dow dropping over 645 points in a single session, the team at Dupree Financial Group explains how their income-focused approach and hands-on research process has helped client portfolios outperform the major indices — with significantly less risk. How One AI Research Report Rattled the Entire Market The week’s biggest market story centered on a research report from Rinni, a small boutique research firm, that painted a grim picture of AI-driven economic disruption. Written from the perspective of 2028, the report described a scenario where AI causes mass white-collar layoffs, creating a self-perpetuating economic spiral with no natural correction mechanism. As Mike Johnson explained on the show: “It was well written, and it was probably written by AI. Essentially AI causing mass layoffs, white collar jobs specifically, and causing a vicious cycle in the economy where there’s no self-correcting mechanism that you have with a normal economic downturn.” The report called for a potential 38-40% market decline, and the reaction was swift — particularly in expensive technology stocks that had been treated as safe havens for the past several years. James Dupree noted what this reveals about market psychology: “What it shows is how sensitive the market is right now, especially in some of these expensive areas of the market. The big tech companies were considered the safe haven for the last several years. Now you’re seeing the flip side of that.” This kind of volatility is exactly why working with an advisor who does independent research matters. Unlike large national firms where you may be assigned an investment counselor following a one-size-fits-all model, Dupree Financial Group conducts its own research and gives clients direct access to their portfolio managers — the same people making the investment decisions. Why History Says AI Won’t Destroy the Economy While the Rinni report spooked markets, the Dupree Financial team took a longer view — one informed by decades of watching technological disruption play out in real time. Mike Johnson put the situation in historical context: “You look back historically on what’s happened when you’ve had new technology disrupt an economy. You have upheaval in certain markets, but the unemployment rate has not gone up since you’ve had these displacements.” From farming equipment to spreadsheets replacing bookkeepers to e-commerce disrupting brick-and-mortar retail, the pattern has been consistent: displaced workers move to other industries, and companies become more efficient and more profitable. As an investor, that increased profitability is ultimately what drives returns. The team also drew parallels to the dot-com bubble of the late 1990s — noting that while some technology companies will thrive, others building out AI infrastructure at enormous cost may see those investments fail to generate returns. This potential destruction of capital is a real risk for investors who chase momentum without understanding the underlying business. HALO Stocks: The New Safe Haven for Retirement Portfolios One of the most actionable insights from this episode is the emergence of the “HALO” investment framework — Heavy Asset, Low Obsolescence. These are companies that, as Tom Dupree put it, “you can’t AI out of existence.” HALO stocks include sectors like oil and gas, physical real estate, grocery stores, telecom companies, and industrial manufacturers like Caterpillar and Cummins. These companies own tangible assets and operate businesses that require a physical presence regardless of what happens in the virtual world. Tom offered a memorable perspective on why the physical world will always hold value: “The physical world has to exist and be maintained regardless. Everybody that is betting on AI in such a big way, it’s like betting on the side bet in a bigger way than on the actual game.” This HALO approach has been a significant contributor to Dupree Financial Group’s portfolio performance this year. Understanding how this investment philosophy works — owning individual stocks in carefully researched companies rather than being packaged into mutual funds — is one of the key differences between personalized investment management and the mass-market approach used by larger national firms. Dividend Income vs. Pure Growth: Why It Matters When You’re Taking Withdrawals Perhaps the most important segment for anyone in retirement or approaching required minimum distributions was the team’s detailed comparison of income-focused investing versus pure growth strategies. Mike Johnson broke down the math clearly: “With an RMD, you have to take X amount out every year. From a pure growth perspective, you have no idea what the price is gonna be over the course of that year. But by having an income focus, we can say with better conviction and better certainty what’s gonna be generated from income over this year.” The key insight is this: if your portfolio’s dividend income matches or exceeds your required withdrawals, the price of the underlying stocks becomes less critical in the short term. You’re not forced to sell into a down market. With a pure growth approach — even a traditional 60/40 allocation — you may have to sell stocks or bonds at unfavorable prices just to meet your distribution requirements. This is the kind of personalized portfolio analysis that makes a real difference for people in retirement. It’s not a one-size-fits-all allocation model — it’s a strategy built around your specific income needs and withdrawal requirements. The Hidden Risks of High-Yield Covered Call Funds The team also issued a timely warning about a popular product category that may look attractive on the surface: covered call funds with sky-high stated yields. James Dupree highlighted one particularly egregious example: “There’s one fund called Yield Max that had a 114% listed dividend. The fund is just gonna go down for the most part.” Mike Johnson explained why: “That’s the difference between a synthetic yield versus a real yield. A real yield of a company where the dividend comes from the earnings — that’s a real dividend.” If you’ve been living off a covered call fund’s “dividend” while the share price steadily declines, you’ve essentially been spending your principal without realizing it. This is a critical distinction that many investors — and even some advisors at large national firms — fail to make clear. FINRA’s investor education resources can help you understand the difference between income sources in various fund structures. Key Takeaways from This Episode A single AI research report from Rinni triggered a significant Nasdaq sell-off, exposing how sensitive expensive tech stocks have become to disruption narratives. History consistently shows that technological disruption displaces workers into new industries while making companies more efficient and profitable — not the doomsday scenario some predict. HALO stocks (Heavy Asset, Low Obsolescence) — including oil, real estate, grocery, telecom, and industrials — have emerged as the new safe haven trade and are driving strong portfolio performance. Dividend income strategies provide retirees with greater certainty around withdrawals than pure growth approaches, especially when required minimum distributions are in play. High-yield covered call funds with eye-popping stated dividends may actually be returning your own capital — not real income from company earnings. The 10-year Treasury yield dropping below 4% confirms that U.S. government bonds remain a safe haven during market sell-offs. Mortgage rates approaching 5.75% could help housing markets, but alone won’t solve the fundamental supply and affordability challenges facing homebuyers. Conducting thorough research on individual companies — rather than chasing momentum or buying based on headlines — remains the foundation of sound retirement investing. Frequently Asked Questions What are HALO stocks and why do they matter for retirement investors? HALO stands for Heavy Asset, Low Obsolescence. These are companies that own physical assets and operate businesses that cannot be replaced by artificial intelligence — think oil companies, real estate, grocery stores, telecom providers, and industrial manufacturers. For retirement investors, HALO stocks offer stability because their core business models are not at risk of technological disruption, making them a reliable component of an income-focused portfolio. How does a dividend income strategy protect my retirement withdrawals? When you’re taking required minimum distributions or regular withdrawals in retirement, a dividend income strategy means your portfolio generates cash from company earnings regardless of what stock prices do in any given year. This means you’re less likely to be forced to sell holdings at a loss just to meet your withdrawal needs — a risk that pure growth strategies carry during market downturns. Are covered call funds safe for retirement income? Not necessarily. While covered call funds may advertise attractive yields — sometimes exceeding 100% — the “dividends” often come from capital gains or options premiums rather than actual company earnings. Over time, many of these funds experience significant price declines, meaning investors are effectively spending their principal. It’s important to understand the difference between a synthetic yield and a real dividend backed by company cash flow. Will AI cause a stock market crash? While AI disruption is real and will create winners and losers across industries, historical precedent suggests that technological change tends to make the overall economy more productive rather than destroy it. Workers displaced by new technology historically move into new roles and industries. The bigger risk for investors is overpaying for AI-related companies that fail to generate returns on massive capital expenditures — similar to what happened during the dot-com era. How is Dupree Financial Group positioned during this market volatility? The team has been proactively raising cash and bond positions in client portfolios, which helped cushion the recent sell-off. Combined with holdings in HALO stocks, dividend-paying companies with conservative balance sheets, and Treasury positions that benefit from safe haven flows, client portfolios have outperformed the major indices year to date with significantly less volatility.

Don’t Guess — Know What You Own and Why You Own It As Tom Dupree said during the show: “The key isn’t timing the market. It’s understanding what you own and why you own it.” If you’re in retirement or thinking about retirement and you’re not sure whether your portfolio is built to generate reliable income — or if you’re wondering how AI disruption could affect your holdings — the team at Dupree Financial Group is here to help.

How Fed Chair Kevin Warsh Could Impact Your Retirement Portfolio: Interest Rates, Market Volatility, and Investment Strategy

The Tom Dupree Show

Meta Description: Kentucky financial advisors discuss Fed Chair nominee Kevin Warsh’s impact on interest rates, market volatility, and retirement portfolios. Dupree insights on portfolio management. When market uncertainty meets changing Federal Reserve leadership, retirees need clear guidance on protecting their portfolios. In this episode of The Financial Hour, Tom Dupree Jr., James Dupree, and Mike Johnson provide direct access to portfolio managers who explain how Kevin Warsh’s nomination as Fed Chair could reshape your retirement strategy through interest rate changes and market positioning. Understanding Kevin Warsh’s Approach to Federal Reserve Policy The nomination of Kevin Warsh to replace Jerome Powell as Fed Chair has created significant market implications for retirement portfolios. As Tom Dupree explains, “Warsh is gonna have to deal with this stuff and the stock market is not gonna be his only problem.” His unconventional stance differs from traditional dovish or hawkish approaches, creating both opportunities and challenges for income-focused investors. Mike Johnson notes that Warsh “has kind of an odd view” because “he’s been critical of the size of the Fed’s balance sheet.” This critical perspective on quantitative easing could fundamentally alter how markets price risk and opportunity, particularly for those managing retirement income portfolios in Kentucky and beyond. Interest Rate Environment and Portfolio Impact The Yield Curve Steepening Effect The current interest rate environment shows a steepening yield curve, where long-term rates rise while short-term rates decline. Mike explains: “You’ve seen the yield curve steep… long-term rates have been going up, while short-term rates are going down.” This creates distinct opportunities across different market segments. Small-cap stocks, which are “more tied to shorter term interest rates,” could benefit from Fed rate cuts on the short end. Meanwhile, high-multiple growth stocks face valuation pressure as long-term rates normalize. Treasury Bonds and Market Positioning The 30-year Treasury currently sits at 4.77%, having fluctuated based on market expectations. As our team discusses, the real question becomes: “Trump wants this guy to get rates lower so that housing will start moving… but rates may end up going higher.” This uncertainty requires active personalized portfolio management rather than passive acceptance of market direction. Market Rotation: From Growth to Value and Income Dividend-Focused Strategy in Volatile Markets Since October, markets have experienced significant rotation from growth expectations into cash-flow-predictable companies. As Mike observes, “You’ve seen a rotation out of growth expectations, high multiple stocks and into things where the cash flow is more predictable.” For retirees seeking consistent income, this shift validates the investment philosophy of focusing on dividend-producing assets. “Regardless of what the price is doing, all else being equal, the dividend, the income stream is still there,” Mike emphasizes. The Speed of Information and Investment Decisions The acceleration of market information flow through technology and AI creates both opportunities and risks. “Every second of every day is the market agreeing with you or disagreeing with you,” Mike notes, highlighting the double-edged nature of instant market feedback. This rapid information environment requires discipline in distinguishing between noise and actionable intelligence. As Tom points out regarding their investment approach: “We started doing in the last several years is buying more things that are just common sense type names… that works better.” Technology Sector Volatility: AI and Memory Chip Stocks Navigating the AI Investment Landscape The artificial intelligence sector has dominated headlines while creating extreme volatility. Recent examples include software stocks experiencing significant drawdowns followed by rapid 16-25% single-day gains. James observes: “An average day with no news, a stock going up 25%… that’s ridiculous.” The team’s approach involves gradual averaging into AI-related positions since September, following detailed sector analysis. “We’ve had calls with them. We wanted to understand the sector better,” Mike explains, demonstrating the value of direct access to portfolio managers who conduct primary research. Memory Chip Stock Opportunities Memory chip manufacturers present compelling valuation opportunities despite recent volatility. The team recently added a position with a forward P/E of just 12, significantly below the S&P 500’s average of approximately 22. Tom notes the stock is “up 300% in the last year” but maintains “earnings to back it.” This disciplined approach to high-growth sectors exemplifies how personalized investment management differs from mass-market strategies that either avoid volatility entirely or chase momentum without fundamental analysis. Learning from Market History: Avoiding Value Traps The Dot-Com Bubble Comparison Drawing parallels to the dot-com bubble provides perspective on current AI valuations. Tom recalls: “People were making fun of Warren Buffett towards the end of the tech bubble… ultimately he had kind of the last laugh.” Not all survivors of market corrections recover equally. Intel, for example, “survived but it took 20 plus years for it to get back to where it was” after the tech bubble burst. This underscores the importance of selectivity even within promising sectors. Management Quality Matters The discussion of Kraft Heinz illustrates how management quality impacts long-term results. Despite being “considered one of the top companies around” with Warren Buffett’s backing, “their management is horrible,” leading to poor strategic decisions and shareholder disappointment. As James concludes: “There’s a reason why CEOs and extremely well, highly talented staff are so highly paid, they’re hard to find.” Key Takeaways for Retirement Investors Kevin Warsh’s Fed leadership could mean higher long-term rates despite lower short-term rates, requiring portfolio adjustments Yield curve steepening creates opportunities in small-cap stocks while pressuring high-multiple growth names Dividend-focused strategies provide income consistency regardless of price volatility Technology sector selectivity matters more than broad exposure, with valuations and earnings fundamentals guiding decisions Management quality and business fundamentals trump thematic investing for long-term success Common sense investments in recognizable companies often outperform obscure “deep value” plays Active portfolio management adapts to rapid market changes while maintaining long-term discipline Frequently Asked Questions How will Kevin Warsh’s Fed leadership affect my retirement portfolio? Warsh’s critical stance on the Fed’s balance sheet and quantitative easing could lead to different interest rate dynamics than previous Fed chairs. Long-term rates may remain elevated even as short-term rates decline, impacting bond valuations and stock multiples. Retirement portfolios should emphasize dividend income and fundamental value rather than relying on Fed accommodation. What is a steepening yield curve and why does it matter? A steepening yield curve occurs when long-term interest rates rise relative to short-term rates. This environment typically benefits small-cap companies that rely on shorter-term financing while pressuring high-valuation growth stocks. For retirement investors, it suggests favoring income-producing assets over growth speculation. Should retirees invest in AI and technology stocks despite volatility? Technology exposure should be sized appropriately for your risk tolerance and income needs. Our approach involves gradual position building in fundamentally sound companies with reasonable valuations, never risking retirement income needs on speculative positions. Direct access to portfolio managers helps navigate these decisions. How do I know if I’m in a value trap versus a true opportunity? Value traps lack the three essential elements: quality management, sustainable earnings, and reasonable business prospects. True opportunities combine all three elements with temporarily depressed valuations. This requires ongoing research and analysis rather than simple valuation metrics. What makes dividend-focused investing effective in volatile markets? Dividend income provides cash flow independent of price fluctuations. As Mike explains, “regardless of what the price is doing… the income stream is still there.” This creates portfolio stability while volatile prices create rebalancing opportunities for patient investors. Take Control of Your Retirement Portfolio Market transitions create both risk and opportunity. The difference between portfolio growth and disappointment often comes down to having personalized investment management with direct access to portfolio managers who actively research positions and adapt to changing conditions. At Dupree Financial Group, our team-based approach means you benefit from comprehensive analysis rather than a single perspective. We focus on income-producing investments, transparent fee structures, and strategies designed specifically for retirees and pre-retirees aged 50 and above.

She finally admits that they are still “feeling good” about the U.S. economy, but now might be a good time to consider diversifying in smaller companies and international companies. Paul and Evan are pretty shocked that a Harvard Business School graduate, who helps millions of investors, would so blatantly tell investors to buy based on past performance and then call it diversification.     Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?
