In this episode of the Planned Solutions Incorporated Podcast, The estimates of global economic growth have been revised several times in 2022 as the probability of a recession in the US within the next twelve months has increased to nearly 25%. It seems the best scenario is a period of very low economic growth, with the worst case is a period of economic contraction. However, this outlook for economic growth may already be reflected in market prices as investors may have incorporated these expectations into their estimates of future prices. Also, Cryptocurrencies were touted as an unregulated way for investors to hold and transfer funds in stark opposition to the highly regulated banking industry, which makes up the foundation of the international financial system. However, recent failures show that the lack of regulation has allowed cryptocurrency companies to repeat the same mistakes that led to the bank regulations they sought to avoid. And,The six-month rate of interest paid on Series I Bonds declined from a rate in excess of 9% for the six months from May 1st to October 31st to less than 7% for the period from November 1st ,2022, to April 30th, 2023. However, the fixed interest rate component was increased from zero percent to 0.4% making the return slightly less dependent on the future rate of inflation to generate a positive yield. Plus a look at the Planned Solutions Incorporated Office Bulletin Board- The holidays are a popular time for charitable giving. However, few people give much thought to how they give which means they may be missing out on potential tax savings. Ever since the 2017 Tax Act, which increased the amount of the standard deduction, many taxpayers did not have a sufficient amount of itemized deductions to be able to take advantage of their charitable contributions.

Dollar Strength I see comparisons to the 70s and people say yes with the current inflation we're going to have a major recession or depression just around the corner. One important area that people are not looking at is the strength of the US dollar. Back in October 1978 the dollar hit an all-time low of 80.52. The weakness in the dollar was very difficult for the United States. I'm sure you're wondering where it stands today. Roughly 40% higher checking in around 112. There are many benefits to a strong dollar, the most important being confidence from around the world in our currency. It is easy to be emotional and get on the doom and gloom train but they're just too many other positive factors that tells me we will get through this probably faster than many believe Earning Season Earnings season for the third quarter is underway and was kicked off with decent earnings from the big banks. Over the next few weeks, we will be seeing many companies report and investors should be looking at the growth of the earnings year over year along with the guidance going forward. In the last three months analysts have reduced estimates by about 7% which could make the estimates easier to meet. I would also recommend watching the sales along with the price to sales ratio to see how your companies compare with the industry and what investors are paying for the sales of the companies they're invested in. Tax Adjustment With inflation comes an upward adjustment of 7% on tax brackets from the IRS. This is the largest increase in automatic adjustments to the tax brackets since it was first indexed to inflation in 1985. The top tax bracket of 37% for a married couple now starts at $693,750 when couples file the tax return in 2023 for 2022 income. The standard deduction will also climb 7% to $ 27,700 for married couples. All tax brackets across-the-board will increase by 7% so taxpayers will not be paying tax on inflation. The estate and lifetime gift tax exclusion will also increase to $12.92 million from $12.06 million per person. Gift tax exclusion will climb from $16,000-$17,000. Unfortunately, all the news is not good, the Social Security administration adjusted their inflation on payroll tax of earnings up to $160,200 from $147,000 in 2021 Home Sales Existing home sales have now fallen for the past eight months as mortgage rates hit 6.92% and probably will soon crossed over into the 7% range. September sales for existing home sales declined 1.5% in September to an annual rate of 4.71 million homes. The percentage number looks far worse if you look at the September sales on an annual basis, the decline is 23.8%. Home inventories continue to rise which will be the beginning of more price declines in housing prices.   Harrison Johnson - "Last Chance for Series I Bonds"

This week we're talking about the basics of Series I bonds, which come with a number of benefits and can be purchased using a tax refund.

Investing is typically a game of balancing risk and reward. Those who take more risk have the opportunity for higher reward, and those who take little risk are limited to minimal returns. However, there are occasionally times when the relationship between risk and return breaks down, and investors can achieve great returns without exposing themselves to significant risk. Series I Savings Bonds which are paying 9.62% are a current opportunity that fall into this category. If you are interested in learning how to earn a great return on your excess cash balances, we think you'll enjoy this episode. Thanks for listening!

Series I bonds are largely unknown and unheard of, yet are one of the safest investments one can make with returns that are adjusted semiannually to factor in changes to inflation. These are backed by the full faith and credit of the US government, making them essentially risk-free. Series I bonds offer a safe haven for some of your dollars and can allow you to maintain your purchasing power, if not increase it, as Series I bonds are likely to offer returns that far exceed that of any savings or checking accounts. Currently, new Series I bonds pay a composite rate of 3.54%. In this episode, I dive into what Series I bonds are, the benefits they offer, and why they could be an effective place to put some of your money. Enjoy!
