Are tariffs the problem or just a symptom? Recent tariff announcements are stirring up uncertainty. What does that mean for inflation, economic growth, and investor sentiment? In this episode of Off the Wall, hosts Jessica Gibbs, CFP®, and David B. Armstrong, CFA, are joined by Monument Wealth Management’s Portfolio Management team Erin M. Hay, CFA, CMT®, and Nate W. Tonsager, CIPM® to address the biggest market headlines in the first quarter of 2025.
Don’t we all wish things would just go according the plan? But that’s not life. What happens when things don’t go as planned? Or if we don’t actually know what our future looks like? Our guest, Terri Trespicio, says don’t be wed to an outcome, which we can’t control; instead be wed to something we can control: the planning. The best outcomes result from planning and preparation, and those are skills we can develop.
Terri’s forthcoming book is called Unfollow Your Passion: How to Create a Life That Matters To You (available now for pre-order at unfollowyourpassion.com).
