☆ Quick, simple things you can do this year to improve your financial future
  + stars: | 2023-03-06 | by ( Jeanne Sahadi | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
New York CNN —You know very well you could do a million things to improve your financial situation. The problem, though, is that changing a million things means you’ll basically have to change way too much about how you live. Incremental, implementable and imperfect,” said Brent Weiss, co-founder and head of financial wellness at Facet, a financial planning firm. Break down where your money is going specifically and create a “needs” column and a “wants” column, said Rose Niang, the financial planning director at Edelman Financial Engines. Pay down high-interest debtCredit card interest rates are at record highs this year.
☆ Amid inflation and market volatility, just 12% of adults — and 29% of millionaires — feel 'wealthy'

Inflation, geopolitical uncertainty and fears of a recession have undermined financial confidence across the board, according to a new report by Edelman Financial Engines. Less than one-quarter, or 23%, of more than 2,000 adults polled earlier this fall said they felt "very comfortable" about their finances. Fewer — just 12% — consider themselves wealthy, the report said. Even with their high net worth, less than half of all millionaires, or 44%, felt "very comfortable" about their finances and fewer than one-third, or 29%, felt wealthy, the report also found. But at a time when inflation and stress levels are up, and markets and portfolios are down, "very few Americans actually feel wealthy."
☆ Insiders detail how Wall Street is preparing for a post-FTX world, from heightened scrutiny on crypto deals to rethinking hiring plans

Most Wall Street firms have executed big crypto and blockchain initiatives. The ties between Wall Street, Main Street, and digital assets have never been tighter. Some traditional firms have chosen crypto custodians to do that for them, while others offer it themselves. Fidelity also has its own digital assets custody offering, and reportedly had plans to continue building out its digital-asset team as recently as late October. 121, which requires most SEC registrants to record the fair value of custodied digital assets as a liability.
☆ Layoffs mount, and Main Street still can't find any workers to hire for open jobs
  + stars: | 2022-11-19 | by ( Cheryl Winokur Munk | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +8 min
"Inflation, supply chain disruptions, and labor shortages continue to limit the ability of many small businesses to meet the demand for their products and services." Meanwhile, the National Federation of Independent Business, the main small business trade group, reported last week the tenth-consecutive month of a confidence decline on Main Street, though little change in the need to hire more workers. When it comes to salary, small business owners generally don't play in the same league as larger companies. For example, don't just offer yoga or meditation apps or gym benefits; offer multiple ways employees can recharge, Lebovits said. Finally, small businesses need to understand what attracts job-seekers in the first place and play up these advantages in all of their communications with candidates.
☆ Stock futures mostly unchanged as election results start roll in

New York CNN Business —US stocks were mostly unchanged in after-hours trading as results from Tuesday’s midterm elections rolled in. If Republicans take at least one chamber of Congress, that will likely result in more gridlock, which the market usually loves. Investors are more than happy when politicians bicker but don’t actually enact any new laws that may hurt corporate profits. S&P 500 futures were down 0.1%, and the Nasdaq Composite was down 0.01%. Early results on election night can be very different from the final outcome once all the votes are tallied.
☆ Stocks week ahead: How the midterms could affect Wall Street

Investors are more than happy when politicians bicker but don’t actually enact any new laws that may hurt corporate profits. If Republicans get the House, tax hikes are dead in the water,” said David Wagner, a portfolio manager with Aptus Capital Advisors. That’s because there are some areas of consensus for the White House and Republican lawmakers. Congress and the White House may spend more time bickering than trying to pass legislation. Ameriprise chief market strategist Anthony Saglimbene said on a conference call last week about the midterms that stocks have historically gone up after elections, no matter which party controls the White House and Congress.
☆ Why Wall Street shouldn’t sweat the midterms
  + stars: | 2022-10-06 | by ( Paul R. La Monica | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +4 min
New York CNN Business —The midterm elections are a little more than a month away, and if Wall Street had a vote, it’d be for more gridlock. Just a few months ago, many political observers and Wall Street experts were predicting that the GOP would gain control of the Senate and possibly even the House. The conventional wisdom on Wall Street is that the market prefers when politicians bicker and little actually gets done. Clifton also pointed out that “there were two notable exceptions” to the usual midterm market moves: 1974 and 1978. The Fed’s next scheduled meeting is on November 2, just six days before the midterms.
☆ Turning point for the crypto community? Where bitcoin goes from here
  + stars: | 2022-09-17 | by ( Kevin Schmidt | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
But with bitcoin coming off a nearly two-year low, the short-term temperaments are being met with a mix of positive and negative factors that are guiding where the crypto community goes from here. Proposals for more SEC oversight of the crypto community are likely to be met with hostility from the community itself, although the agency has already taken steps to enforce its regulatory agenda. "A year from now, the large trading venues will be in the process of registering with the SEC," Hougan said. Beyond the crypto community, rates of adoption from large investment firms demonstrate that digital currencies are being embraced by Wall Street, Hougan said. "Blackrock and Schwab coming in reinforces to everyday investor that bitcoin is not going away," Hougan said.
