Debt Downgrade Drama and the Budget

Debt Downgrade Drama and the Budget

Our team employs external financial research from many different economists, analysts and research firms. This research provides valuable input into how we actively monitor and manage your portfolio. Periodically, we share this research with you in addition to our own analysis and market commentary. Linked below is a piece from Brian Westbury at First Trust about the timely topics of the recent U.S. debt downgrade by Moody’s, and what it all means in relation to the U.S. fiscal situation. In our view, the current fiscal situation calls for both spending cuts and policies to spur economic growth and efficiency. We think Congress will eventually figure this out over the coming years, but the bond market may have to push them first. Enjoy the analysis from First Trust, and thanks for your confidence in our team at Lineweaver! Please click here to
