Money Life With Chuck Jaffe Daily Podcast

Paul Gruenwald, chief economist at SP Global Ratings, expects to see impressive growth numbers, but he doesn't find them exciting because the economy still has a significant hole to climb out of, and that the resurgent virus, trouble with stimulus and more are standing in the way of what should be a more-exciting recovery over the next few years. In another interview on the show, Esty Dwek, head of global market strategy for Natixis Investment Managers, agrees with a number of Gruenwald's points; she also notes that the comparative numbers are weird, but says that she expects the economy to get back to pre-pandemic, 2019 economic numbers, with the key issue being whether it happens before the end of 2022. This show also features Greg McBride of Bankrate.com on the site's landmark checking-account survey,. and Tom Lydon of ETFTrends.com making an online-retail specialty fund his ETF of the Week.
