A Private Wealth Management Group Event

Interest rates are at record low levels and have been for years. The Fed is now purchasing $85 billion a month in securities but inflation still remains in check. Unemployment is still less than ideal but the housing market seems to be turning around. Are we in the midst of a bond bubble? How is the U.S. economy really doing and where does one invest within the fixed income asset class? Hear from Peter Stutz, CFA as he explains his views on the economy, current markets, and where he is seeing value.
