In the latest episode of Facts vs Feelings, Ryan Detrick, Chief Market Strategist, and Sonu Varghese, VP, Global Macro Strategist, discuss why a strong year-end rally may already be underway. They explore the drivers behind market momentum, earnings strength, inflation trends, and the Fed's next moves, while adding insight, a bit of humor, and practical perspective for investors heading into the final stretch of 2025.Key Takeaways:·       Seasonality on Investors' Side: November and December have historically been strong months for equities, especially when the S&P 500 is up 15% heading into year-end.·       Resilient Earnings: Nearly 87% of S&P 500 companies have beaten earnings expectations, one of the strongest showings in years.·       Sentiment Still Skeptical: Surveys continue to show more bears than bulls, but confidence is building as investors look toward a possible year-end rally.·       Inflation Cooling but Sticky: Core CPI rose just 0.23% in September (2.8% annualized), showing progress even as service-sector prices remain firm.·       The Fed Turns Dovish: Rate cuts are expected to continue into 2026, potentially bringing policy below 3%—a setup that has historically supported markets.·       Easing Trade Tensions: U.S.–China progress on tariffs and rare earths adds another macro tailwind to investor confidence.·       Market Breadth: Equal-weight indexes across the S&P 500, Dow, and Nasdaq recently hit all-time highs, showing strength beyond mega-cap tech.DON'T MISS our special Halloween livestream on YouTube starting at 10:30amCT this Friday, October 31, 2025!

As the year winds down, many of us are asking, "What should I take care of financially before December 31st? What can wait until the new year? And how can I build a spending plan that actually reflects the life I want to live?"We're going to explore all of this, including how to think about emergency funds, the current economic cycle, and how that might affect our plans, as well as the myths around working with a financial planner. To help answer these questions, I've got a great guest, Adrianna Adams, CFP, and Head of Financial Planning at Domain Money, which is a modern financial planning platform on a mission to make expert guidance more accessible, personalized, and transparent.Adriana has worked everywhere from Wall Street to startups and now leads a team helping clients align their money with their goals and their values.**I am not a client of Domain Money.

We're in what I like to call the Super Bowl of fundraising — that mad sprint to December 31st. Before you pour all your time and energy into your year-end campaign, I want to make sure you're not losing money through hidden leaks in your donor funnel. In this episode, I break down the four biggest leaks that cost nonprofits thousands every year — and how to fix them before the giving rush begins:1️⃣ Acquisition – why prospects might not even be paying attention to you.2️⃣ Conversion – how a confusing donation page can kill your momentum.3️⃣ Upgrade – the missed opportunities right under your nose.4️⃣ Retention – the biggest leak of them all.Plus, I'm sharing a free Holiday Giving Readiness Checklist to help you plug those leaks and set yourself up for a strong finish to the year.Important Links:Holiday Giving Readiness Checklist: https://go.rheawong.com/holidaygivingreadinesschecklist How to Train ChatGPT:  ⁠https://go.rheawong.com/annual-fundraising-plan-tracker1-3127-4300⁠ My Big Ask Gifts Program: ⁠https://go.rheawong.com/big-ask-gifts-program⁠ My Book, Get That Money Honey: ⁠https://go.rheawong.com/get-that-money-honey⁠ My Newsletter: ⁠https://www.rheawong.com/⁠

David Chau says despite ongoing U.S.-China trade tensions, buyers are shrugging off volatility and driving the market to new highs, fueled by strong momentum in tech. He is watching the expected move in stocks like Nvidia (NVDA), which he says will be key to sustaining the rally into year-end. He also breaks down his view that volatility is "episodic, not systemic," and why investors should focus on defined risk-reward trades rather than trying to time the VIX.======== 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

Discount-capture investor Rob Shaker, Portfolio Manager at Shaker Financial Services, says that he's "not seeing anything in the closed-end fund space that would point to any type of bubble conditions." He sees generic, slow widening of discounts happening now, mostly due to a mix of year-end tax-loss moves starting now and some fund-specific actions, rather than because investors have lost faith and courage in current market conditions. Still, Shaker does see potential market storms coming and he says investors should make sure they are comfortable that they can weather those flurries "and readjust to the better things that are on sale and then double-collect on the way up."

Hey friend! I'm recording from my new apartment in Chicago, and I'm so excited to bring you Part 3 of my series on end-of-year giving strategies. This episode is a pep talk about the single most important thing I want you to focus on for a successful end of year: asking for more.I know it sounds simple, but asking for more is the strategy that makes the biggest difference in raising money. I'm talking about asking current donors, loyal supporters, and even monthly donors for more — without overthinking it, without worrying about what's “too much,” and without trying to budget their philanthropy for them. Your job is to communicate the need, build relationships, and invite generosity. The rest is up to them. IN THIS EPISODE:Why asking for more is the #1 strategy for end-of-year successHow to stop worrying about what's “too much” for your donorsWhy perfectionism and over-preparing can actually hold you backHow humility can make up for lack of know-how or misstepsWhy fundraising is risky — and why that's okayHow to turn mistakes into stronger donor relationshipsTips for having confident, clear conversations with your supportersMy approach to determining ask amounts and staying decisiveHow to navigate awkwardness, conflict, and uncertainty with donorsThe truth is, most of us overthink asking for more, and that hesitation costs time, energy, and ultimately, donations. I want you to feel set free from the fear of asking for too much or getting it “wrong.” Humility, emotional intelligence, and willingness to risk are your allies — they allow you to make the ask, repair missteps if needed, and build stronger, healthier relationships.Whether you're raising major gifts for the first time or trying to hit your end-of-year goals, this episode is packed with practical advice and encouragement to help you lean in, take the risk, and ask for more.DM me CL to learn about joining Courage Lab, my cohort for leaders who want to raise $100K+ in just 1–2 hours a week.Want 15 leads in 5 minutes?

“It's kind of incredible” how much momentum the market has despite a difficult geopolitical backdrop, says Alonso Munoz. He thinks investors should take profits and be cautious into the end of the year. He likes long-term bonds as hedging tools, with yields “still high relative to history,” and some tech names like Tesla (TSLA). “We're looking forward to earnings,” he adds.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Heading into tax season unprepared can be costly—missed deductions, lost paperwork, and sometimes, a surprise check to the IRS. But it doesn't have to be that way! In this episode, Danielle Hayden, reformed corporate CFO and founder of Kickstart Accounting, Inc., shares the ultimate year-end checklist every business owner needs to save on taxes, protect their business, and walk confidently into tax season. From organizing your paperwork to making smart tax moves and maximizing personal financial strategies, Danielle gives you practical steps you can take before December 31st that can make a big difference in the new year. Key Takeaways:  Get Your Paperwork in Order: Before December 31st, ensure all your partnership agreements, legal documents, and W9s are signed, stored, and ready. It'll save you major headaches during tax season. Use the January 1st Advantage: The first of the year is the best time to make big structural changes, like starting an LLC, switching payroll providers, or filing for S Corp status. This avoids partial-year filings and confusion. Pay Your Kids (Properly!): You can pay your children for legitimate work in your business and enjoy tax advantages while teaching them financial responsibility. Take Advantage of Accountable Plans: Reimburse yourself consistently for things like your home office and cell phone. It's an important benefit that shouldn't be skipped, even in slower years. Review Personal Tax Opportunities: Before year-end, check your 529 plans, HSA, and FSA balances and make contributions to maximize your deductions and savings. Max Out Retirement Contributions: Don't forget to fund your retirement plan! Whether it's a 401(k), SEP IRA, or solo 401(k), you're building wealth beyond your business. Meet with Your Tax Accountant Early: Schedule a pre-tax-season check-in to confirm your estimated payments, review your strategy, and avoid surprise penalties. Don't Spend Money Just to Save on Taxes: Avoid the trap of prepaying expenses or buying things you don't need. Focus on building a healthy, sustainable, profitable business instead.
