  • It’s time

    I’ve listened through some rough times. There is good content to the show but the host really doesn’t appear to have a grasp of any of the topics. Markets, economics, retirement, she is holding the show back. Ivana is limiting the learning for the audience.

    Another great podcast in the Morningstar family. I use this show as a teaser into diving deeper on various topics in the Morningstar platform.

  • Please change the host!

    I listen to this podcast regularly. A lot of helpful topics are covered by the knowledgeable guests that are invited.

    But I get turned off by the host. She just reads the questions already prepared by someone. She does not demonstrate any knowledge of what is being discussed or does not react in any way to represent how an ordinary listener might react.

    If you want to hear an example of that, listen to “The Daily” by New York Times.

These 8 Funds Could Help Steady Portfolios During Rough Markets

These 8 Funds Could Help Steady Portfolios During Rough Markets
Q: Let's talk about two funds that offer inflation protection. Why are these funds considered niche players rather than core holdings?
They're designed to protect against inflation with targeted tools like tips and commodity exposure, rather than providing broad exposure across equities and bonds.
These 8 Funds Could Help Steady Portfolios During Rough Markets
Q: Since allocation funds appeal to income investors, is that why they steer clear of growth strategies?

These 8 Funds Could Help Steady Portfolios During Rough Markets
Q: And what type of investors are these funds suited for?
