Dollar General's (DG) rally was even more substantial as it continued earnings wins for discount retail stores.

Sprouts Farmers Market gehört zu den interessantesten Spezialisten im amerikanischen Lebensmitteleinzelhandel. Das Unternehmen hat sich mit einem klaren Fokus auf frische, natürliche und biologische Produkte etabliert und profitiert von einem Markt, der seit Jahren deutlich stärker wächst als der klassische Supermarktsektor. Gleichzeitig bleibt Sprouts mit einem Marktanteil von rund 0,5 Prozent weiterhin ein kleiner, aber dynamischer Player in einer stark fragmentierten Branche. Nach einem außergewöhnlich starken Kursanstieg im Jahr 2024 folgte eine Phase deutlicher Ernüchterung. Der Aktienkurs halbierte sich innerhalb weniger Monate, belastet durch eine anspruchsvolle Vergleichsbasis, schwächere Same-Store-Sales und einen vorsichtigeren Ausblick des Managements. Die jüngsten Quartalszahlen zeigten jedoch erneut stabile Gewinne und eine solide Margenentwicklung. Die zentrale Frage lautet nun: Spiegelt die aktuelle Bewertung bereits das reduzierte Wachstum wider, oder eröffnet der Rücksetzer neue Chancen? Im Podcast werden die wichtigsten Aspekte der Analyse eingeordnet: die langfristige Umsatz- und Gewinnentwicklung, die Strategie hinter dem Bio-Segment, die Expansion in neue Regionen, die Rolle des eigenen Markensortiments sowie die Bewertung im Vergleich zu Wettbewerbern wie Walmart, Costco, Kroger und Ahold Delhaize. Auch die charttechnische Situation wird betrachtet, inklusive des parabolischen Anstiegs, des anschließenden Trendbruchs und der Frage, bei welchen Kursniveaus sich ein erneuter Einstieg langfristig lohnen könnte.

This week, Betsy highlights the importance of women giving themselves permission to make choices that bring joy. We often pour so much into creating memorable experiences for our loved ones, especially during the holidays, but it’s essential to remember that our own moments are just as special. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We are so thankful you are here. Transcript  Welcome to The Art of Living Big, where we explore how to live intentionally and with more joy. I’m Betsy Pake, your host, master, coach, and creator of the Navigate Method. Here to help you listen in to your true desires, elevate your standards, and live life to the fullest. Now, let’s go live big. Hi everyone. Welcome. Welcome to The Art of Living Big this week. It’s a holiday week, so a little shorter episode, but I wanted to share a thought, and it’s actually something that I shared last year in a reel on Instagram. In fact, I may share it. I may re repost it this year because it resonated with so many people and I think it’s. Such a good message. So here’s the message. , I realized when my daughter was young and she’s about to be 24, but when she was young, , like a little kid, like a toddler, I started to realize how many things that I always just took as like the magic of Christmas where actually my mom doing all this work, right? Like . The cupcakes and champagne that go out for Santa every year. , , when my daughter, it was time for her to do well. We didn’t do cookies and milk. I did cookies and milk when I was little, but when my daughter, well, Santa changed his preferences by the time I had a kid. And cupcakes and champagne is what we left out. , But I had to make the cupcake. Right. It didn’t just like magically happen. We used to leave out reindeer food and I remember as a little kid leaving out reindeer food, well, that actually has to be created reindeer food. And then the whole magic of it has to be implemented and was implemented by my mom. I remember being a little kid and my parents would have the elves do something crazy in the house like. We had a little craft table, and I remember one year the chairs were upside down on the table and my socks were over the legs. I remember thinking that was so crazy and evidence that elves had actually been there and done something so silly. And I remember when my daughter was little thinking about that and going, oh my God. All that magic. All that magic was my mom. Filling the stockings, figuring out what to put in ’em, putting out the little reindeer, all the little things. And , as we head into Thanksgiving here in the US I, I wanna just offer this thought. And it is the idea that as women who do so much, we. Matter too. Our experience matters too. And if you’re putting together a big dinner, if you’ve got people coming over, if you’re doing something special where you are entertaining, I want you to also think about yourself in that. And one of the things I realized a couple years ago was that I was getting everybody’s order for. Pie right after Thanksgiving. What does everybody want? And everybody that I was asking wanted pumpkin pie. I, I don’t dislike pumpkin pie, but I really love cherry pie. Like I really love cherry pie and I don’t have cherry pie very often. I don’t know why we don’t have pie as much as we have cake because pie is superior. I love pie season. So here we are in pie season. I’m asking everybody what do you want? Everyone’s saying, pumpkin, and I’m feeling this tiny kernel of disappointment because I can’t have my cherry pie. Now you may already be thinking in your head like, yeah, you can. But when you’re in that moment, you’re like, I don’t wanna get a whole pie just for one piece, just for me. And if you’re like me, I also think, , I don’t wanna get the whole pie and end up eating the, whole pie all by myself. ’cause that’s likely to happen too. But I remember last year , when I did this reel on Instagram, my message was Get the pie. Get the pie. I remember leaning over at Kroger and looking down and seeing the pumpkin pie and seeing the cherry pie and feeling that paying of guilt. Where did that come from? Like we get to have a holiday too. It doesn’t have to all be just about creating magic for other people and , I think that if you want the cherry pie, get the cherry pie is a great metaphor for other things in our lives too. So if you want something, just because everybody else doesn’t want it or doesn’t want it for you, doesn’t mean it’s not for you. And so I wanna offer you that little nugget, , as we move forward. And I will say this too, and this is so silly that I’m even saying this out loud, but you know, one of our sponsors here on the podcast is Cozy Earth, and I get asked all the time to do sponsorships, and I never want to, because very few people that reach out to me, it’s already something that I love , and so. When I tell you about Cozy Earth, I really mean it. But one of the things, if you have been seeing my stuff on Instagram, and here’s what I mean, this goes with the Cherry Pie theme. So many times I post my quilted house coat that I got on Cozy Earth. It’s, one of my favorite things in the whole world. I know that sounds so insane that a house coat would be, but I put it in the dryer. It’s a, like a comforter, you guys, it’s, a comforter. If you took a comforter and then you cut out a bathrobe shape and sewed it together, that is what this is. And I put it in the dryer at night. And then when I. Get outta the tub, or if I take a shower at night or whatever, I put that on and it’s, magical and it brings me joy. So much joy. That and their cozy socks, and I love their sheets. I mean, all this stuff, there’s nothing, you can’t go wrong with any of it. But this bathrobe, I’m telling you, I’m obsessed. So on the website, it’s called the Quilted House coat, but I have so many people that reach out because I post this. House code all the time because I really love it. And , right now through the middle of December, they have 20% off that you can get on their website. But you can stack the coupons. So you can use the R code here for the R of Living Big, it’s just, it’s a live big Betsy. You can use that code and stack it so it’s, you get 40% off. I’m actually thinking about getting a second one ’cause I love it so much, but then I’m like, why would I need in case one’s in the wash, I guess. I just love it. So I always am like jumping on Marco Polo with my girlfriends and they’re like, oh my God, that freaking bathrobe is like, it’s six 15 at night. Why do you have that bathrobe on? And I say, do not judge me. It is my cherry pie. I want to wear it all the time, and so I shall. So if you’ve seen that. , Cozy Earth has a really fabulous return policy. They’re amazing. The stuff is amazing. Get yourself what you want for the holiday and get the quilted bathrobe, but I really do want you to get it, but I want you to tag me when you get it. ’cause I really wanna see, I’m so excited for all my friends that bought it for themselves to put under the tree. So. , Whether it’s cherry pie or the quilted bathrobe or a walk in the afternoon where somebody else cleans up the dishes. , Give yourself what it is that you need. We are so sold, this idea that we are supposed to be second or third or fourth or fifth or put everybody, it’s it, a virtue to put everyone else first to be selfless. And I think there has to be balance. I think you cannot give of yourself if you’re totally depleted and even though you’re a mom, even though you’re a wife, even though you’re a working woman, even though you exist as a female in this world, it doesn’t mean that you don’t get to have the things that bring you joy. I think these little joys that we get to have. These are the things that make the big things, the big, hard things manageable. I think it’s the thing that makes grief doable. I think it’s the thing that makes struggles at work . Tolerable is by finding the little things that we can notice and give ourselves and be part of that are. Tiny joys., I, on my Instagram stories every morning I always post good things. And I asked this past week, I said, I feel like this is different from gratitude, right? My list of good things. And I asked people, is it gratitude or is it a little bit different? And , it was pretty 50 50 of what people thought, but I have been thinking about it ’cause I love words and I love nuance of things. And I think it’s appreciation. I think it’s not gratitude as much as appreciation, and that feels like a higher vibration to me. Right? Appreciation. And so when I think about getting the cherry pie or getting the quilted house code or whatever it is, I, think about this idea that I get to appreciate these things in my life and I’m allowed to choose them for myself. I’m allowed. To create the experiences for myself that bring me joy. It’s wonderful when somebody else does that for you too. And you don’t have to wait. You can create it for yourself. So get your cherry pie if that’s what you like, or whatever you like. Get the thing you like. And if you get the house coat tag me. , We’re gonna do a fireside chat. In January, so there’s already one scheduled, so make sure to look. The link is in my bio, , my Instagram bio. If you go there, it’ll show you the fireside chat. But I, I want, everybody to wear their quilted house coat. Oh my gosh. Maybe we could make that a fun thing. I’ll wear mine. It’s, so good. And then we could really be cozy and chat by the fire that doesn’t exist. But I put a candle out last time I put a candle out, and that made me feel like we were, , achieving the goal. So I hope that if you’re listening, you’re having a really good Thanksgiving. I hope you got the cherry pie. I hope you join me for the fireside chat. And if you get the quilted House coat, I hope you wear it. All right. I love you guys so much. I’ll see you next week. Thanks for joining me on The Art of Living Big.

This segment from the Omni Talk Retail Fast Five podcast, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, and Quorso, analyzes Kroger's decision to shut down three automated fulfillment centers with a staggering $2.6 billion write-off. The grocer is pivoting to in-store fulfillment and third-party delivery partnerships to improve digital profitability by $400M in 2026. Chris questions the scale of the initial investment error, while Anne explores how evolving customer demand for fresh products may impact automation ROI. Is this the end of the CFC era, or just a course correction? #kroger #automation #CFC #grocerytech #ecommerce #retailautomation #Ocado #supplychain #digitalcommerce #grocerydelivery

Nathan advocates for the FDA to allow anti-cavity claims for xylitol and other compounds despite the current monopoly of fluoride in such claims. They question the efficacy and potential downsides of fluoride, and explore alternative dental health interventions. The episode also covers xylitol's role in preventing tooth decay, respiratory health benefits during the COVID-19 pandemic, and ongoing legal challenges with the FTC. Discussions highlight the potential implications of oral health on systemic diseases like cardiovascular disease and Parkinson's, and emphasize the importance of nasal hygiene alongside dental care.

Navigating Market Volatility: Why Income-Focused Investing Beats Speculation for Kentucky Retirement When the tech-heavy Nasdaq drops 4% in a week and market sentiment shifts dramatically, how should those thinking about retirement or already in retirement respond? In this timely market update from The Financial Hour of The Tom Dupree Show, Tom Dupree and Mike Johnson provide real-time insights into recent market turbulence while reinforcing a critical principle: predictable income trumps price speculation when you’re living off your portfolio. Unlike mass-market advisory firms that leave clients guessing about portfolio holdings during volatile periods, Dupree Financial Group’s personalized investment management approach ensures you understand exactly what you own and why. This episode demonstrates how direct access to portfolio managers who invest in individual securities—rather than opaque packaged products—provides clarity and confidence when markets get choppy. Key Takeaways: Market Insights and Retirement Strategy Tech Sell-Off Context: The Dow dropped 794 points on Thursday as growth stocks pulled back from stretched valuations—a predictable correction in what Tom calls a “toppy market” Fed Rate Cut Expectations Shift: Market pricing for a December Fed rate cut moved from 95% probability to essentially a coin flip (50/50) in just days, affecting growth stock valuations Conservative Portfolios Outperform During Volatility: While the Nasdaq fell 4%, Dupree Financial Group’s dividend-focused, income-producing portfolio actually made money during the same period Flight to Quality Emerges: Investors moving toward healthcare, Berkshire Hathaway, and dividend-paying stocks as speculation cools Retirement Income Is Everything: Cash flow predictability matters more than price appreciation when you’re living off your investments 2026 Contribution Limits Announced: 401(k) increases to $24,500; IRAs to $7,500; new Roth catch-up rules for high earners Opportunities in Volatility: Dupree Financial Group added several positions in recent weeks, including quality names like Kroger Understanding the Recent Tech Sell-Off: What Happened and Why Tom Dupree opens the episode with characteristic directness about Thursday’s market action: “Stocks notch worst day in over a month as tech sell-off intensifies. The market was down 794, which you know, was probably about right and I think it’s still going down today.” But rather than expressing alarm, Tom’s reaction is measured: “I mean, you had to have known it was gonna happen.” Mike Johnson provides context: “Last Friday, you had a huge downdraft early Friday morning, and then it turned around, came back. That is a sign of a toppy market. At some point, you’ll get a longer sell-off.” Why Growth Stocks Pulled Back Tom explains the mechanics behind the sell-off: “When you have things trading at stretch multiples, you don’t necessarily have to have bad news for those things to come back down to earth. Sometimes just the news—they run up on the news or the expectation of the news, then they come off on the news itself.” This phenomenon particularly affects high-growth technology stocks that trade at premium valuations. Mike notes: “Since last Monday, the Nasdaq is down about 4%. That’s the super speculative, more growthy kind of names.” For those thinking about retirement in Kentucky, this volatility underscores why personalized portfolio analysis focused on income production rather than speculation provides more sustainable results. How Fed Rate Expectations Impact Growth Stocks One of the week’s most significant developments involved a dramatic shift in Federal Reserve rate cut expectations. Mike explains: “The market has drastically changed its expectations in terms of a Fed rate cut in December. It was priced in like 95% chance that they were gonna cut rates in December. Today, that’s basically a coin flip—50/50 is where it’s pricing it in.” The Interest Rate and Growth Stock Connection Why does this matter for stock valuations? Mike provides the technical explanation: “Growth stocks will typically warrant a higher multiple when rates are low or going down, positively correlated to falling interest rates. Warren Buffett used to talk about it—it’s the risk-free rate of return, typically the US government bond.” Tom adds practical context: “If it is lower, then it allows for a growth stock’s P/E to go higher. It doesn’t always correlate directly, but at times, there is a positive correlation that way. It’s a tailwind—it allows for the speculation, gives it permission to go higher.” However, both emphasize this is “not at all necessarily related to their business or how well it’s doing.” A company can report strong earnings and still see its stock drop 30% if market expectations were even higher. This disconnect between business fundamentals and stock price movements highlights why the Dupree Financial Group investment philosophy prioritizes income-producing securities over growth speculation for retirement portfolios. Conservative Portfolio Performance: Making Money While Tech Falls Tom shares a striking performance contrast: “Our firm, the portfolio we manage, is a more conservative setup. We’ve actually made a little money in here. Doesn’t mean we’ll always do that, but if you want to invest in the growth of America over a long period of time, you should have some money in growth stocks.” He explains their balanced approach: “We’re beginning to buy some around the margins. Not doing too well at it the last couple of days, but it’s tiny smidgen amounts. But we will do well with it because I think our research is good that we’re doing.” The Dividend and Bond Foundation The portfolio’s resilience comes from its core structure. Tom details: “For the other mix, we are buying dividend-paying stocks that are well known and government bonds. And so it’s enabled us to put together a pretty good year so far. We’re a month and a half from being over with.” This approach demonstrates a fundamental principle for those in or approaching retirement: predictable income from dividends and bonds provides stability that growth speculation cannot match. Mike reinforces this: “You made a lot of money, especially since April, in these growthier names. But they all finally give up the ghost at some point.” Flight to Quality: Where Smart Money Is Moving Mike identifies an important trend: “The last two weeks, you have started to see the—if you want to call it—flight to quality. You started to see areas broaden out into the rally, broaden out into other areas. Healthcare has actually done pretty well.” The Berkshire Hathaway Example Tom shares a specific investment decision that illustrates their active management approach: “We sold our Berkshire at a very nice price, and it pulled way back. And now we’re back in. We weren’t market timing—we were simply looking at the valuation and based on where investors seemed to think the company was gonna go, given that the big dude was just retiring. We thought it was too expensive. Sold it, bought it back. Looks like they’re still executing.” Mike adds context: “He actually just put out his Thanksgiving letter. It was five, six pages. He kind of does his little stories in there growing up. It was a nice letter. I’d encourage listeners to go read it.” The letter mentions Greg Abel (Buffett’s successor), gives a shout-out to Charlie Munger, and confirms Buffett will continue writing Thanksgiving letters, though stepping back from shareholder letters and annual meeting speaking. Tom notes why Berkshire attracts capital during volatile periods: “You saw a flight to quality because they have just an enormous cash hoard right now, and plus the businesses that they own—those are rock solid good companies.” This selective buying and selling based on valuation—rather than following index allocations—exemplifies the advantages of personalized investment management over autopilot strategies. Technology’s Impact on Employment: The Verizon Example Mike highlights a trend emerging from the AI and technology revolution: “You’ve seen several companies announce large job layoffs this week. Verizon announced 15,000 cut to the workforce, but when you look at it as an investor, this is the aspect of AI and just technology that we’ve been talking about the last year.” He explains the market’s reaction: “As the technology matures, you’re gonna see companies benefit from just the economies of scale. Verizon, ‘s stock was green, partly because of that announcement. They also appointed a new CEO who’s gonna focus more on the customer.” Tom adds historical perspective: “Anytime there’s a technological revolution, there’s a retraining process.” For Kentucky retirement planning, this underscores the importance of owning quality companies that can adapt to technological change while continuing to generate income—the type of holdings you can actually see and understand when working with local financial advisors who provide portfolio transparency. 2026 Retirement Account Contribution Limits: What You Need to Know Mike provides timely information for retirement savers: “They just came out with the new contribution limits for 401(k)s and IRAs for 2026.” The New Numbers 401(k) Contribution Limit: Increased to $24,500 (up $1,000) IRA Contribution Limit: Increased to $7,500 Catch-Up Contributions Age 60-63: Even higher contribution allowed during this specific age window Important New Rule for High Earners Mike highlights a critical change: “If you have a 401(k) with your employer and you’re—as the IRS quantifies it—a high earner (which in their definition is if you make over $150,000), if you do a 401(k) catch-up to your plan, which that’s if you’re over 50, they changed the rule on this. That catch-up contribution now has to go to a Roth 401(k).” He acknowledges the complexity: “It gets a little complicated because of if it’s this, then it’s that and the little rules. If you have questions about your 401(k), give us a call. We can talk with you about it because the rules are important. You want to maximize the assets that you have and you want to use everything to your advantage that’s given to you.” Beyond the 401(k): Why You Need Additional Investment Strategies Tom delivers a contrarian perspective on retirement planning’s most popular vehicle: “Money that you can save aside that’s not in a 401(k)—that is actually your own money. You can invest that money far more creatively than you can within most 401(k) plans.” He continues: “I would actually advise people not to use their 401(k) as their sole retirement planning source. Invest in some things outside of that that you can—buy some stocks. You can’t buy stocks inside a 401(k). I’m glad to have 401(k) rollovers when they come to us. I think it’s great. I’m glad that people have built money over time, but it’s not the most creative way to invest.” The In-Service Rollover Strategy Mike offers a solution many don’t know exists: “Let’s say you’re still working and you’re 59 and a half. The employer matches—you can still take part in the employer match into the 401(k), but you can take your balance of the 401(k), move that to an IRA. It’s what’s called an in-service rollover. No tax consequences.” The advantage? “Then you can invest it in some of these other things that we’ve been talking about. You can do that while at the same time still utilizing the 401(k) for the match or the tax deferral. It’s just strategically using the tools that are available.” This flexibility allows those approaching retirement to maintain employer matching benefits while gaining access to individual stock and bond investing—the foundation of Dupree Financial Group’s income-focused approach. Retirement’s Real Risk: Running Out of Money vs. Running Out of Life Tom references the statistic Mike shared in a previous episode: “You were talking about earlier—there was a study done that Americans are more worried about running out of money than they are about death.” He connects this to retirement timing: “I would think that applies more to people who’ve already retired who know that they’re not doing anything more to put anything back. That’s why I tell people, if you don’t have to, don’t retire because it’s not good for you. It’s good for people to have something to do, a reason to get out of bed in the morning, a reason to do this, to do that.” The Purpose Question: What Are You Retiring To? Mike emphasizes a critical distinction: “The biggest success stories of clients have been people who have that—what are you retiring to? It’s not where you’re retiring from. What are you retiring to? That’s where we’ve always seen success—is when they’re engaged, they’re active. And a lot of times, more and more often, it’s some sort of gainful employment.” Tom agrees: “Gainful employment can be a lot of things, but it has to be something that requires you to be involved in something—putting some points on the board.” For Kentucky retirement planning, this philosophical perspective complements the financial strategy: combining meaningful activity with income-producing investments creates both purpose and security. Why Retirement Is Inherently Risky (And How to Mitigate That Risk) Mike delivers a candid assessment: “The idea of retirement—I don’t care how big the pool of assets are—the idea of retirement is a risky proposition just because it’s unnerving. It’s scary. It’s a scary thing for people for a reason because you’re giving up control. You’re trying to replicate an income stream through the assets that you’ve saved. So it is a risky thing just by nature, and people are living longer.” He defines the advisor’s role: “Our job as advisors to our clients, as investors, is how do we in the most prudent way produce an income stream?” Tom responds: “Well, that’s where the rubber meets the road—cash flow. And to do that takes experience. You have to have seen some things in the past that worked and some things that didn’t work.” This accumulated wisdom—47 years in Tom’s case—represents a significant advantage of working with experienced local financial advisors rather than being assigned an investment counselor at a large national firm who may lack this historical perspective and market cycle experience. Finding Opportunities in Market Volatility Tom shifts to the practical implications of recent market choppiness: “Right now, you’re gonna need to look at some of these stocks that have gotten beat up and find some bargains in there because they’re gonna be there. There’s always opportunities.” He recalls recent successful positioning: “In April, when everybody was scared to death, you’re starting to see some things now that we’ve added several things to the portfolio in the last three weeks.” The Kroger Purchase: Quality at Reasonable Prices When asked to name something recognizable they’ve added, Tom reveals: “One place where you buy your milk and your gasoline—Kroger. We bought some Kroger.” This purchase exemplifies several principles: Buying quality companies during market weakness Investing in businesses that people actually use and understand Focusing on stable, dividend-paying companies rather than speculation Taking advantage of price volatility to acquire good businesses at better valuations This active decision-making—buying specific companies for specific reasons at specific times—contrasts sharply with passive index investing that automatically buys whatever the index holds, regardless of valuation or business quality. Review the market commentary archive to see how Dupree Financial Group has identified opportunities across various market environments. The Cornerstone of Retirement Portfolios: Predictable Income Mike emphasizes the foundation of their approach: “Markets are choppy—that’ll probably continue. That’s the nature of markets. But just you have to be diligent, always looking for opportunities, always looking for things that accomplish your goals. Fundamentals—look at the companies. That’s what we’re doing. We try to do that every day. We try to find things that work for our clients. That’s the goal.” He highlights what makes this possible: “But there’s accountability. Our clients know what they own. And the cornerstone of the portfolio is income because that is more predictable than price appreciation or price movement.” Tom connects this to retirement reality: “It’s very important in retirement too because you’ve got to have income to pay the bills that you’re used to having your work income pay for.” This focus on predictable cash flow rather than unpredictable price appreciation represents the fundamental difference between speculation and sustainable retirement investing. Portfolio Transparency: Knowing What You Own and Why Throughout the episode, the theme of transparency and accountability recurs. When clients can see exactly which companies they own—Kroger, Berkshire Hathaway, dividend-paying stocks, government bonds—they understand where their retirement income originates. This contrasts with: Index funds where you own whatever 500 companies meet arbitrary criteria Target-date funds that Tom calls “zero in terms of creativity” Annuities backed by insurance company bond portfolios you never see Any “black box” product that obscures actual holdings The advantage of transparency becomes especially clear during volatile markets like the current environment. When the Nasdaq drops 4% but your portfolio generates positive returns, you understand why: you own dividend-producing companies and government bonds selected for income stability, not speculation on growth. Market Outlook: Navigating Continued Choppiness Tom provides his near-term perspective: “You’re gonna have your up days and down days. And you’re gonna make your most money with growth over time. Take some risk, think about what you’re buying, and go for it.” Mike offers guidance for the coming period: “Markets have been choppy the last couple of weeks. That’ll probably continue. That’s the nature of markets.” The takeaway for those thinking about retirement or already in retirement in Kentucky: choppy markets are normal, but having experienced advisors who actively manage portfolios—buying quality companies when they’re on sale, maintaining income-producing core holdings, and providing direct access to explain every decision—makes navigating volatility far less stressful than watching index funds fluctuate with no understanding of what you actually own.

Frequently Asked Questions About Market Volatility and Retirement Income Investing What caused the recent tech stock sell-off? The Nasdaq dropped approximately 4% as growth stocks trading at “stretch multiples” (high valuations) pulled back. Tom Dupree explains this was predictable in a “toppy market” where stocks had run up significantly. The catalyst included shifting Federal Reserve rate cut expectations (from 95% probability to 50/50 for December) and natural profit-taking after strong gains. Importantly, this correction didn’t require bad news—simply the reality meeting elevated expectations. How did Dupree Financial Group’s portfolio perform during the tech sell-off? While the Nasdaq fell 4%, Tom Dupree reports their more conservative portfolio “actually made a little money” during the same period. The portfolio’s foundation of dividend-paying stocks and government bonds provided stability while they selectively added growth positions “around the margins” in small amounts. This demonstrates how income-focused investing protects capital during volatility while still participating in growth opportunities. Why do interest rates affect growth stock valuations? Mike Johnson explains that growth stocks typically warrant higher price-to-earnings multiples when interest rates are falling. Warren Buffett discussed this concept: the risk-free rate (typically US government bonds) serves as a baseline for all investments. When this rate is lower, investors will pay more for growth potential. Tom adds it’s “a tailwind that allows for speculation” and “gives it permission to go higher.” However, this is separate from actual business performance—a company can report great earnings and still fall if rate expectations shift. What is a “flight to quality” in investing? Mike describes how, during market uncertainty, investors move capital toward more stable, proven companies and assets. Recent examples include increased interest in healthcare stocks, Berkshire Hathaway (with its enormous cash reserves and solid businesses), and dividend-paying stocks. This contrasts with speculative growth investments. For those in Kentucky retirement planning, this trend validates the income-focused approach that prioritizes quality over speculation. What are the 2026 retirement account contribution limits? The IRS announced: 401(k) contributions increase to $24,500 (up $1,000); IRA contributions increase to $7,500; and individuals aged 60-63 can contribute even more. A significant new rule: high earners (defined as making over $150,000) must now make catch-up contributions (for those over 50) to a Roth 401(k) rather than traditional pre-tax. Mike recommends calling for personalized guidance since “it gets a little complicated” with various age brackets and income thresholds. Can I move my 401(k) to an IRA while still working? Yes, through an “in-service rollover” if you’re 59½ or older. Mike explains you can continue receiving employer matching in your 401(k) while simultaneously moving your existing balance to an IRA with no tax consequences. This allows investment in individual stocks and bonds—which Tom notes “you can’t buy stocks inside a 401(k)”—while maintaining employer benefits. This strategy provides far more investment flexibility than typical 401(k) options like index funds or target-date funds. Should I use my 401(k) as my only retirement savings? Tom Dupree advises against this: “I would actually advise people not to use their 401(k) as their sole retirement planning source.” He notes that money outside a 401(k) “is actually your own money” that “you can invest far more creatively.” While he’s “glad to have 401(k) rollovers,” he acknowledges “it’s not the most creative way to invest” since most people invest through indexes or target-date funds—”zero in terms of creativity.” Maintaining savings in both qualified and non-qualified accounts provides more flexibility. Why is income more important than growth for retirement portfolios? Mike emphasizes: “The cornerstone of the portfolio is income because that is more predictable than price appreciation or price movement.” Tom adds it’s “very important in retirement too because you’ve got to have income to pay the bills that you’re used to having your work income pay for.” When living off your portfolio, you can’t wait for prices to recover from a downturn—you need cash flow regardless of market conditions. Dividends and bond interest provide this predictability that growth speculation cannot. What does it mean that retirement is “inherently risky”? Mike explains: “I don’t care how big the pool of assets are—the idea of retirement is a risky proposition just because it’s unnerving. It’s scary. You’re giving up control. You’re trying to replicate an income stream through the assets that you’ve saved.” People are also living longer, extending the period assets must last. The solution, according to Tom, requires experience: “To do that takes experience. You have to have seen some things in the past that worked and some things that didn’t work.” Should I retire if I can afford to financially? Tom offers contrarian advice: “If you don’t have to, don’t retire because it’s not good for you. It’s good for people to have something to do, a reason to get out of bed in the morning.” Mike emphasizes the critical question: “What are you retiring to? It’s not where you’re retiring from. It’s what are you retiring to?” Their most successful clients remain engaged and active, often with “some sort of gainful employment.” This philosophy combines financial security with life purpose—both essential for successful retirement. How do you find investment opportunities during market volatility? Tom advises: “You’re gonna need to look at some of these stocks that have gotten beaten up and find some bargains in there because they’re gonna be there. There are always opportunities.” He recalls April when “everybody was scared to death” and notes they’ve “added several things to the portfolio in the last three weeks”—including Kroger. The key is having a process: “Be diligent, always looking for opportunities, always looking for things that accomplish your goals. Fundamentals—look at the companies.” This requires direct access to portfolio managers who actively manage rather than autopilot index strategies. Why does portfolio transparency matter during volatile markets? Mike states, “Our clients know what they own. And the cornerstone of the portfolio is income.” When markets drop and the Nasdaq falls 4%, but your portfolio generates positive returns, transparency lets you understand why: you own dividend-producing companies selected for income stability, not speculation. This contrasts with index funds (where you own arbitrary collections of stocks), target-date funds, or annuities, where you never see underlying holdings. Understanding what you own eliminates anxiety during volatility.

Cavities are still one of America's most common diseases – despite decades of fluoride use. Xlear is calling on the FDA to recognize xylitol as an active anticaries ingredient so dental professionals and patients can finally access this powerful tool. Xylitol, a safe and natural compound, has been proven to stop cavity- causing bacteria and dramatically reduce tooth decay.The American Dental Hygienist Association (ADHA) in conjunction with Xlear, a leader in hygiene products, filed a citizen petition with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) urging the FDA to formally recognize xylitol as an approved Over-the-Counter (OTC) active ingredient in dental hygiene products, including toothpaste, rinses, gels, mouthwashes, gums, and lozenges.Xylitol addresses the root cause of tooth decay. In contrast, fluoride strengthens tooth enamel. Fluoride has almost no effect on the bacteria that causes tooth decay. Studies have shown that xylitol has a higher “protection factor” in fighting cavities than fluoride.“Dental decay is the single most common communicable, chronic disease inflicting Americans today. Moreover, dental decay is also closely associated with driving other serious health risks - ranging from heart disease to diabetes,” said Trisha O'Hehir, MS, RDH.Key Facts:·         Nearly 90% of U.S. adults have experienced tooth decay.·         Studies show xylitol can reduce cavities by up to 80%.·         Xylitol works by neutralizing acid-producing bacteria and protecting enamel at the source.·         Xylitol is safe if swallowed, a key benefit for children.·         Widely used internationally, xylitol is already found in gum and oral hygiene products. The petition requests that FDA: Amend 21 C.F.R. Part 355 to list xylitol as an approved anti-caries active ingredient. Alternatively, issue a new OTC monograph under Section 505G of the FDCA.Learn more about the Petition hereXlear is one of the nation's leaders in effective xylitol hygiene products, available inpharmacies, big box stores, natural retailers and online.XLEAR's Retailers: Walgreens, CVS, Vitamin Shoppe, Target, Kroger, Sprouts, Natural Grocers and most natural products retailers nationwide.XLEAR's Online Retailers: Amazon, iHerb, Lucky Vitamin, and Vitacost.comLearn more at Xlear.com or SprySmile.com

On an ordinary Tuesday morning in October 2018, Cheryl Coker vanished from her suburban Ohio home. Her SUV was found abandoned in a Kroger parking lot with her purse and phone still inside. Cheryl—a bubbly, talkative mom and grandmother who never met a stranger—had not left on her own.   For a year and a half, her family searched desperately for answers. Then, in April 2020, her remains were discovered in a wooded area not far from her home. Police believe Cheryl was murdered inside her house before being taken to the location where she was found. The only person of interest? Her husband, Bill Coker.   This case explores the heartbreaking disappearance and murder of a devoted mother who was on the verge of starting a new chapter in her life. Despite strong suspicions and an active investigation, no charges have been filed. Cheryl's family is still waiting for justice.   If you have any information, please contact the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation at 1-800-282-3784.     New episodes every Tuesday and Thursday!   Follow us on Instagram: @momsandmysteries   Join our Patreon: patreon.com/momsandmysteries   Visit our website: momsandmysteries.com   #TrueCrime #Podcast #FloridaMoms #CherylCoker #UnsolvedMurder #Ohio #JusticeForCheryl #RiversideOhio

Chris and Anne discuss why this integration is brilliant for the subscription wars and predict when Walmart will respond with a similar Door Dash partnership. Is this the future of grocery shopping?

In this week's Omni Talk Retail Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, and Quorso, Chris and Anne discussed: Amazon's push to add mainstream brands like Pepsi and Doritos to Whole Foods through ShopBots and Amazon Grocery kiosks (Source: Wall Street Journal) Starbucks crossing the $1 billion milestone in annual delivery sales with 30% quarterly growth (Source: CNBC) Mondelez investing $40 million in a generative AI tool to slash marketing costs by 30-50% (Source: Reuters) Kroger expanding its Uber Eats partnership to integrate restaurant delivery directly into the Kroger app across 2,600+ stores (Source: Chain Store Age) Grubhub partnering with Instacart to offer grocery delivery through its platform nationwide (Source: Supermarket News) And this month, Chris and Anne handed out the OmniStar Award in partnership with Quorso to Justin Weinstein, EVP and Chief Merchandising and Marketing Officer at Giant Eagle, for leading the 95-year-old retailer's bold $100 million "Because It Matters" brand positioning. There's all that, plus a debate on whether AI-generated ads are the future, why ordering dinner through your grocery app makes perfect sense, and whether hand massages would get Chris into John Lewis for holiday shopping.
