Jeffrey Roach, chief economist at LPL Financial, says that while the economy is starting to point towards likely outcomes — an economic slowdown that leads to stagflation but likely stops short of recession — the extremes are still possible. That means the outcomes run from a potential trade war to a no-landing scenario until at least 2026. Roach discusses the challenges faced by international economies and markets right now, as well as whether stagflation or recession is worse for consumers. Greg McBride, chief financial analyst at BankRate.com, discusses what he expects to hear from the Federal Reserve later this week, but also notes that investors who are scared of the current markets can find safe havens in banking products, once again creating CD ladders that can deliver above-inflation returns while also dealing with rate cuts likely to arrive later this year. Plus Robert Farrington, founder of The College Investor, discusses the end of student-loan relief that has been in place for the last five years, with more than 40 million Americans now facing consequences if they can't repay student loan debt. He talks about what borrowers can do to ease the burden and reduce its impact on their finances.

Bruce Kelly, senior columnist at InvestmentNews, picks the brain of Brad Bueermann, CEO and founder of FP Transitions, about the M&A market in the independent advisory space. Speaking in the wake of the blockbuster acquisition of Commonwealth Financial Network by LPL Financial, Bueermann provides insight into how the market might change given recent volatility and why best fit, not price, is critical.

Tariff announcements cause market chaos           In an effort to balance trade relationships across the globe, several new tariff announcements were made on April 2nd. This caused the markets to decline sharply in Thursday's session with the Nasdaq closing down nearly 6% and the S&P 500 closing down nearly 5%. I must say I was not necessarily surprised by that decline, but was more surprised by the run up in the market in the days leading up to the announcement. The administration has been talking about these tariffs for months and I for one was not necessarily surprised by the actions they plan on taking. The U.S. will be implementing a baseline tariff rate of 10% on all countries and that goes into effect on April 5th. After research into trade practices from other countries including tariffs, currency manipulation, and trade barriers the U.S. will also be implementing higher duties on several countries. This includes an additional 34% on China, which comes on top of the previous tariffs for a new effective rate of 54%. According to the administration, this compares to a calculated tariff rate of 67% from China. Other tariffs included a 20% rate on the European Union vs a 39% calculated rate on our goods, a 46% rate on Vietnam vs a 90% calculated rate on our goods, a 32% rate on Taiwan vs a 64% calculated rate on our goods, and a 24% rate on Japan vs a calculated rate of 46% on our goods. This is just a small sample as more than 180 countries and territories will be facing these reciprocal tariffs. The problem here is the bottom for stocks might not be in as there will likely be continued announcements from other countries with their response. Some countries like China, France, Canada, and Germany have responded with a combative tone and a promise to fight back. I continue to believe this trade war will not be solved overnight, but I must say with the pullback there definitely appears to be some opportunities surfacing. I'd be careful waiting for the all clear on this as by the time that comes, you may have missed some great opportunities.     Trade barriers increase around the world It is not just the US that is increasing tariffs, many countries around the world are also increasing their tariffs. There are some economists predicting that we could be headed to the biggest increase in protectionism since the 1930s, when the Smoot-Harley tariff act was in place. Back then the average tariff rate in the US was nearly 30%. Today it is around 8.4%. When it comes to the group of 20 leading economies in the world, there are roughly 4650 import restrictions, of which the US has roughly 1000. The EU, China, Canada, Mexico account for roughly 700 restrictions with the other 15 countries accounting for 3000 restrictions. Some people feel the United States is being aggressive by adding all these tariffs to products coming in to our country, but when you look at the numbers and the facts, it appears we are just playing catch-up and we are way behind the rest of the world as they have been putting tariffs on our products going into their countries. I don't understand why we are singled out as being such a bad country and unfriendly to other countries just because we want free trade in the world. I'm sure if they dropped their tariffs, we would do the same.   Jobs Report shows some positive news on a difficult day for the market With all the news around tariffs and trade, it's almost like everyone forgot that a jobs report was released on Friday. Job growth remained very healthy with nonfarm payrolls increasing by 228,000 in the month of March. This easily topped the estimate of 140,000 and was a nice increase compared to February's reading of 117,000. The previous two months did see negative revisions of 34,000 in the month of February and 14,000 in the month of January. The unemployment rate did tick higher to 4.2% from last month's reading of 4.1%, but this was largely due to an increase in the labor force participation rate. A major positive on the inflation front was wage inflation came in at annual rate of 3.8%, which was down from last month's reading of 4.0% and was more in line with a healthy level that creates growing wages but puts less pressure on inflationary forces. I was surprised to federal government positions declined by just 4,000 in the month, but yet a report Thursday from Challenger, Gray & Christmas indicated Doge-related layoffs have totaled more than 275,000 so far. Apparently, the BLS noted that workers on severance or paid leave are still counted as employed, which would have a large impact on the employment numbers. It will be interesting to see how the employment situation shakes out in this category and if the private sector can absorb those lost jobs. It's hard for some to look through the noise of all the trade announcements, but I still believe the economy is in alright spot and the growing concerns for recession may be overblown.     What is a Solo 401(k)? A Solo 401(k) is a retirement savings plan designed for self-employed individuals or business owners with no employees. Also known as an individual 401(k), this plan offers significant tax advantages and higher contribution limits compared to other retirement accounts, such as SEP-IRAs.  One major advantage of a Solo 401(k) is the ability to contribute as both the employer and the employee. For 2024, the contribution limit as an employee is $23,000 (or $30,500 if age 50 or older), which can be made on a pre-tax or Roth basis. For employer contributions, the limit is up to 25% of compensation, bringing the total maximum contribution to $69,000 (or $76,500 for those 50+). Many plans now allow employer contributions to be made on a Roth basis as well. To be eligible, you must be a business owner with no full-time employees, which includes sole proprietors, independent contractors, freelancers, and small business owners. However, spouses of business owners may also participate, effectively doubling the possible contribution. Another key benefit is that a Solo 401(k) can be paired with backdoor Roth contributions, making it an attractive option for high-income earners looking for additional tax-advantaged savings. This offers a distinct advantage over Traditional IRAs and SEP-IRAs, which can trigger taxes on backdoor Roth conversions. A Solo 401(k) is an excellent retirement savings tool for self-employed individuals due to its high contribution limits and tax benefits. Additionally, some business owners may still be eligible to make a 2024 employer contribution if completed before the tax filing deadline.   Companies Discussed: LPL Financial Holdings Inc. (LPLA), Deckers Outdoor Corporation (DECK), Apple, Inc. (AAPL) & Delta Air Lines Inc. (DAL)

Consult your tax professional about eligibility to Roth and Traditional IRA contributions. Contributions and earnings in a Roth IRA can be withdrawn without paying taxes and penalties if the account owner is at least 59 1/2 and has held their Roth IRA for at least five years. Traditional IRA account owners have considerations to make before performing a Roth IRA conversion. These primarily include income tax consequences on the converted amount in the year of the conversion, withdrawal limitations from a Roth IRA, and income limitations for future contributions to a Roth IRA. In addition, if you are required to take a minimum distribution (RMD) in the year you convert, you must do so before converting to a Roth IRA. #personalfinance #retirementincome #financialplanning #financialfreedom #financialadvisor #retirement #investing #stockmarket #mortgage

Do you dream of being financially free but are unsure where to start? Stay with us—we're here to help.Knowing what to do and actually doing it are two very different things. Today, we'll share the steps to achieve financial freedom, but the decision to take action is yours. Like most worthwhile goals, it starts with the desire and determination to make it happen.Start with a Mindset ShiftFinancial freedom begins with a change in perspective. Many people approach budgets like a diet—focused on restriction and deprivation. Just as restrictive diets often lead to overeating, feeling financially deprived can lead to overspending.Why does this happen? The Bible identifies underlying issues like greed, envy, covetousness, or a lack of faith in God's provision. To overcome these, you need to cultivate gratitude.As 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 says:“Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”Gratitude shifts your focus from what you lack to what you have, enabling contentment and a more positive relationship with your budget.Practical Tips for Living Below Your MeansOnce your mindset is aligned, it's time to take action. Here are some practical steps to help you live below your means:1. Build MarginHaving money left over at the end of the month is critical for financial freedom. Start by scrutinizing your fixed expenses:Can you lower your mortgage payment by eliminating PMI?Reduce energy costs by being more efficient.Cancel unused streaming subscriptions or other recurring charges.Sometimes, simply asking for a discount—on medical bills or repairs—can save money. It never hurts to ask!2. Track Your SpendingKnowing where your money goes is essential. The FaithFi app is an excellent tool for setting up a budget and tracking your spending. It can highlight areas where you can cut back, like unused subscriptions, potentially saving hundreds of dollars annually.3. Celebrate Small WinsBudgeting doesn't have to feel like a punishment. Reward yourself for hitting financial milestones:Treat your family to ice cream after a week of staying on budget.Celebrate building your emergency fund with a special dinner.These small rewards keep you motivated without derailing your financial progress.4. Delay Non-Essential ExpensesStretch out spending for non-essentials like salon visits or subscriptions. For example, getting your nails done every six weeks instead of four can save $100 a year.5. Declutter and Sell Unused ItemsIf you're paying for storage, consider selling items you no longer need. A good rule of thumb: Let it go if you haven't used it in a year. This can free up cash and eliminate unnecessary expenses.Increase Your IncomeIf you've trimmed your expenses but still struggle to live below your means, it's time to explore ways to boost your income.Take on a side job in the gig economy.Pick up extra hours at work or ask for a raise.Leverage your skills for freelance or consulting opportunities.Even a modest income increase can significantly improve your financial situation over time.Learning to live below your means allows you to serve God more fully, free from the weight of financial stress. It's a journey of faith, discipline, and intentionality, but the rewards—both spiritual and financial—are worth it.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I recently left a domestic violence situation and will be receiving around $200,000 from the sale of our home. I have limited income and minimal debt. Should I use the home sale proceeds to pay off all my debt to start fresh, or should I keep the debt and make payments to rebuild my credit while holding onto the home sale money for a year or two?I'm turning 65 in March and will be Medicare-eligible. However, I plan to continue working and have employer-sponsored insurance, including an HSA, to which I contribute. I've heard conflicting information—can I continue not enrolling in Medicare now, and can my employer continue contributing to my HSA?My IRA advisor is transferring to LPL Financial. Charles Schwab recommended that I roll over my $300,000 IRA to them and invest directly in stocks rather than mutual funds, saying I was too conservatively invested. Should I stay with my current advisor as they move to LPL, or should I look for a new advisor at Charles Schwab or elsewhere?I have one loan left, a 7.25% bank loan of about $20,000. I also took out a $14,000 401(k) loan. I plan to retire in May when I turn 65. Would it be best for me to pay off both of these loans before I retire, even though it would mean withdrawing from my 401(k) to pay off that loan?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly PublicationNerdWalletLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.
