And it’ll be tough for either Vice President Kamala Harris or former President Donald Trump to turn that around if elected, no matter their grandiose campaign promises. Put together, such investments have resulted in a sharp pick-up in construction spending by manufacturers, according to government data.

Khurana thinks what has made boomers the wealthiest generation — stocks and housing — also makes them a risk to economic stability. AdvertisementSuch a scenario is an '"underappreciated risk," he said, given how much boomers' spending habits have fueled economic growth in recent years. The demographic spends around $548 billion a year, more than any other generation, according to a report from marketing research firm Epsilon. AdvertisementBroken down by each generation's holdings of property and stocks, boomers accounted for 42% of all real estate ownership and 54% of all corporate equity and mutual fund ownership. That's not to say boomers will cause the next recession, but the risk during a recession is dialed up under the current paradigm, Khurana said.

It’s also a sign of confidence from Fed officials that inflation has come under control just enough to comfortably dial back policy. Typically, in the lead-up to a Fed policy decision, Wall Street and economists are in alignment on what to expect. But investors’ wagers for a half-point cut ramped up on Monday; and as of Tuesday afternoon, federal funds futures contracts were pricing in a 63% chance of a jumbo rate cut, up from around 30% on Thursday, according to the CME Group. As inflation skyrocketed in 2021 and 2022, American employers pumped out jobs and the unemployment rate declined to half-century lows. The Fed eventually responded to the country’s inflation problem with its bitter medicine of high interest rates.

Longer-term investors should ignore the daily racket surrounding interest rates and focus on generating income over the next 10 years, according to New York Life economist and chief market strategist Lauren Goodwin. Where to invest: Bonds and AI The strategist posits that over the next decade, interest rates are likely to remain elevated as neither party takes on deficit spending. "So depending on the investor, what they're looking for, there is a way to balance this medium term potential for interest rate risk while still locking in higher rates." Goodwin also sees investing around AI as a smart strategy long term, with large investments in the area continuing. "But because we see not only the government and companies, but also the consumer use case for AI, we expect that investment to continue.

The Federal Reserve is widely expected to start cutting interest rates Wednesday afternoon. Those yields are expected to start coming down sharply as the Fed begins to ease back on generationally high rates. Adding some duration Duration refers to a bond's price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. A bond yield moves inversely to its price, so that when bond prices rise, yields decline. Though investors in the space may be concerned about prepayment risk, especially as interest rates come down and homeowners look to refinance, Cetera says that worry may already be priced in.

More than 4,000 people have descended here for the Future Proof conference , a vast social gathering designed to give younger registered investment advisors and other investment professionals access to what they want.

Lauren Goodwin, economist and chief market strategist at New York Life Investments, told CNBC that winning stocks are unlikely to fit neatly within defensive sectors at this point in the economic cycle. Another thing for investors to consider is that some of the traditional defensive sectors have already been on an upswing. Meanwhile, the Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLP) is up 9%, and Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLV) is up more than 6%. XLU mountain 2024-07-01 Defensive stocks like consumer staples have performed well in the third quarter. Instead of moving to defensive stocks, investors should focus on looking for ways to lock in higher yields in fixed income before the Federal Reserve begins cutting rates, said Goodwin.

Inflation is slowing down, but prices are still high — and likely to stay that way. However, even a broad pullback in price increases underscores another bitter reality: We're still paying more for many goods and services with little relief in sight. "Cooling inflation is not the same as a substantial reduction in prices," said Mark Hamrick, senior economic analyst at Bankrate.

Though municipal bonds generally offer income that's free of federal income taxes – and state taxes if the investor resides in the issuing state – they also come with lower yields compared to other bonds. When it comes to muni bonds, the higher your tax bracket, the more valuable the tax-free income is. A tax-conscious approach to fixed income You don't have to bulk up on municipal bonds to get the best yield for your tax scenario. Municipal bonds are good contenders in taxable brokerage accounts, where investors can benefit from their tax-free income. Some fund families offer "tax-aware strategies" either in mutual funds or ETFs, which can include some exposure to municipal bonds, as well as equities.
