πŸ“Š Market Update: Earnings, Inflation & Treasury Yields
__
Wall Street had plenty to watch last week as earnings season kicked off, inflation remained stubborn, and Treasury yields moved lower.

πŸ“ˆ Earnings Outlook: S&P 500 third-quarter earnings growth expectations eased slightly to 29%, but projections remain strong.

πŸ›οΈ Consumer Spending: Retail sales rose 0.8% in September, beating expectations, although higher gasoline prices contributed to the increase.

πŸ”₯ Inflation Pressures: Consumer inflation climbed to 3.7%, while wholesale inflation reached its highest annual rate since 2022.

πŸ“‰ Treasury Yields: Longer-term Treasury yields declined for the second consecutive week, with the 10-year yield ending at 5.08%.

With earnings season underway and inflation still a concern, investors have plenty to consider heading into the final months of 2026.

πŸ“ˆ Treasury yields are climbing. But is inflation really to blame?
Not necessarily.
__
Recent analysis from Franklin Templeton suggests that higher inflation-adjusted interest rates, rather than rising inflation expectations, are behind most of the recent increase in Treasury yields.

πŸ’‘ So what does that mean for investors?
While strong corporate earnings have helped support stocks, higher borrowing costs could create challenges for businesses, consumers, and the broader economy heading into 2027.
The takeaway? It's not just how much interest rates rise that matters. It's what's driving them.

πŸ’° How Much of Your Income Goes Toward State Taxes?
__
Where you live can make a big difference in how much you pay in taxesβ€”and how much you have left to save and invest.

A new 2026 analysis reveals some striking differences across the country:

πŸ“ Hawaii: Highest overall tax burden at 13.30%
πŸ“ New York: Second highest at 12.39%
πŸ“ Alaska: Lowest tax burden at 4.92%

πŸ“Š National Average: 8.43%

And here's something worth considering: Living in a state with no income tax doesn't necessarily mean you'll pay less overall. Property taxes, sales taxes, and other expenses can quickly add up.

Thinking about retirement, relocating, or simply looking at your long-term financial picture? Understanding how taxes vary by state can help you make more informed decisions.

πŸ‘‰ See where your state ranks and why the numbers matter for your financial future.

πŸ“ˆ Weekly Market Recap | Week Ending October 9, 2026
___
Wall Street reached new highs last week, with strong earnings expectations helping drive market momentum. But with another potential Fed rate hike and new inflation data on the horizon, investors have plenty to keep an eye on.

Here's what moved the markets:

πŸ“Š Corporate Earnings: Analysts are forecasting an impressive 29.6% increase in third-quarter S&P 500 earnings, reflecting continued optimism about corporate performance.

🏦 Federal Reserve: Minutes from the latest Fed meeting suggest another interest rate increase could be coming before year-end.

πŸ“ˆ Record Highs: The S&P 500 and NASDAQ reached new highs, while all three major U.S. indexes finished the week approximately 1% higher.

πŸ’° Inflation Watch: With inflation still above the Fed's 2% target, the next CPI report could offer important clues about the direction of interest rates.

What's next for the markets?

With earnings season underway and another Fed decision approaching, the coming weeks could provide a clearer picture of where the markets are headed.

Growth vs. Value: Are Your Investments as Diversified as You Think?
__
The lines between growth and value investing are becoming increasingly blurred.

The 2026 Russell index updates reveal a significant shift, with major technology companies gaining a larger presence in traditional value benchmarks.

What does this mean for investors?

Simply owning growth and value funds may not provide the diversification you expect. Overlapping holdings and increased exposure to a handful of large companies could create unintended portfolio concentration.

Understanding what's actually inside your investments is more important than ever.

In our latest article, we explore how changing market classifications may affect portfolio diversification, investment strategies, and risk management.

πŸ“Š Weekly Market Recap | Week Ended October 2

Investors closed out the third quarter with plenty to watch across bonds, inflation, economic growth, and the stock market.

This week’s key takeaways:

πŸ“ˆ Treasury yields climbed at the long end of the curve, with the 10-year Treasury ending the week at 5.28% and the 30-year at 5.63%.

πŸ“‰ Inflation showed signs of moderating. The Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation gauge came in below expectations, while core PCE also eased from the previous month.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Economic growth received an upgrade, with second-quarter GDP revised higher to a 2.2% annualized rate, supported by stronger consumer and government spending.

πŸ’» September delivered mixed results for stocks. The technology-heavy NASDAQ gained 1.9%, while the S&P 500 declined 0.5% and the Dow fell 4.3%.

As investors move into the fourth quarter, interest rates, inflation trends, economic growth, and Fed policy will remain important factors to watch.

πŸ“ˆ The Federal Reserve has raised interest rates again β€” what could it mean for investors?
__
The Fed increased its target rate by 0.25 percentage points as policymakers continue to balance persistent inflation with a relatively resilient economy.

While additional rate increases remain possible, the future path of monetary policy will likely depend heavily on inflation, employment, economic growth and other incoming data.

For investors, changing rates can affect everything from Treasury yields and bond prices to stock valuations and portfolio income opportunities.

We take a closer look at what the Fed’s latest move could mean for the markets β€” and what investors may want to keep an eye on in the months ahead.

πŸ’° Which generation holds the most wealth in America?
___
U.S. households now hold roughly $185.7 trillion in total net worth, but the distribution looks very different from one generation to the next.
Baby Boomers currently hold more than half of U.S. household wealth, while Gen X accounts for about one-quarter. Millennials and Gen Z represent the largest share of households but hold just over 11% of total wealth. Visual Capitalist
The numbers offer an interesting look at how age, asset ownership, investing, real estate, and debt can shape wealth over time.
