Inflation is going to drive the market not the Fed, says NYU's Aswath Damodaran

Aswath Damodaran, NYU professor of finance, joins 'Closing Bell' to discuss the stock pullback, inflation impact and tomorrow's CPI report.

Interesting how over 2% inflation has been a concern when central banks and the Fed begin to hike interest rates. I consider the rising interest rate to be a very serious issue since it will undoubtedly cause more investors to withdraw their money from the stock market. But then I'm still aware of certain investors that continue to earn over $365,000. Wish I could accomplish that.

It's often true that people underestimate the importance of financial advisors until they feel the negative effects of emotional decision-making. I remember a few summers ago, after a tough divorce, when I needed a boost for my struggling business. I researched and found a licensed advisor who diligently helped grow my reserves despite inflation. Consequently, my reserves increased from $275k to around $750k.

[@johnlennon232]

nice! once you hit a big milestone, the next comes easier.. who is your advisor please, if you don't mind me asking?

[@jameswood9772]

Well, there are a few out there who know what they are doing. I tried a few in the past years, but I’ve been with "Melissa Maureen Ward" for the last five years or so, and her returns have been pretty much amazing.

[@johnlennon232]

I just looked her up on the internet and found her webpage with her credentials. I wrote her a outlining my financial objectives and planned a call with her.

I was advised to diversify my portfolio among several assets such as stocks and bonds since this can protect my portfolio for retirement. I'm seeking to invest $200K across markets but don't know where to start.

[@Jadechurch-ql3do]

the strategies are quite rigorous for the regular-Joe. As a matter of fact, they are mostly successfully carried out by pros who have had a great deal of skillset/knowledge to pull such trades off.

[@yeslahykcim]

Even with the right strategies and appropriate assets, investment returns can differ among investors. Recognizing the vital role of experience in investment success is crucial. Personally, I understood this significance and sought guidance from a market analyst, significantly growing my account to nearly a million. Strategically withdrawing profits just before the market correction, I'm now seizing buying opportunities once again.

They can't lower rates due to inflation remains high so credit will continue to be expensive. The Fed stopped QE2 years ago and cities are trying to keep their economies afloat by spending. I see why people are moving to BTC, metals, and other currencies. I wonder what happens when BTC distribution is halved?

[@pranavmalhotra1090]

Personally feel the markets over-reacted to possibility of rate cuts. While core inflation has been falling, supply-push inflation has been more dominant overall. Cutting rates wouldn't help much in that regard anyway. If markets really want bullish momentum to persist, perhaps the biggest incentive in my honest opinion would be a big geopolitical relief! Russia Ukraine, or Red Sea crisis, or Israel-Hamas (now Iran, Syria too), have all choked supply chains! Another truth the markets better realise soon is that this high interest rate environment is not going anywhere any time soon!

Inflation is unauthorized tax, which by definition is simply theft. For those that don’t understand inflation because your government officials don’t want you too. Inflation is a term used to describe the general increase in prices of goods and services over time. When governments say they are working to lower inflation to 2%, they are referring to their efforts to stabilize the rate at which prices are rising. However, it's important to understand that lowering inflation to 2% does not mean prices will fall; rather, it means that prices will continue to rise, but at a slower and more predictable rate. Inflation occurs when there is an imbalance between the supply of money in circulation and the demand for goods and services. When there is too much money chasing too few goods, prices tend to rise as consumers compete for limited resources. Governments use various monetary and fiscal policies to manage inflation and keep it within a target range, typically around 2% to 3% annually. Lowering inflation to 2% is aimed at promoting stability in the economy and preventing excessive price increases that can erode the purchasing power of consumers' savings and income. However, it's essential to recognize that even at a 2% inflation rate, prices will still rise over time, albeit at a slower pace. Therefore, when governments say they are working to lower inflation to 2%, it means they are striving to achieve a more moderate and sustainable rate of price increases. It does not imply that prices will fall, but rather that the pace of price growth will be more controlled, allowing consumers and businesses to plan and budget more effectively.

I remember when I just got into crypto back in 2020 but later in 2021 I ended up selling it because I was dumb and I didn't understand it. I studied and learned and now I know how it works. Got back into crypto early in 2023 with 10k and I’m up with 105k in a short period of time .This comment serves as motivation for all those who have invested and continue to invest in cryptocurrencies with so many losses, do not give up, cryptocurrencies can change your life. Do your best to connect with the right people and you will surely see changes.
