No, Kelley Wright is not talking politics. Since the introduction of QE into the markets in '08-'09, the markets, and therefore market participants, have enjoyed an environment where they have in large part been protected by the Fed monetarily and from the Congress fiscally. Inflation, the real kind in the real world, not the phony bologna stuff regurgitated by an intentionally obtuse media, is starting to show signs of emergence. The bond market, which has been AWOL since '08-'09, is starting to exhibit a heartbeat.

In this workshop Kelley Wright will demonstrate the IQ Trends method of identifying high-quality stocks and when they offer good value.

In this low-interest-rate environment, safe and ample income streams are truly invaluablealso much harder to come by. Retirees in search of dependable income streams have to consider alternative strategies that go beyond stocks and bonds.
