Money Life With Chuck Jaffe Daily Podcast

David Wright, lead portfolio manager for the Sierra Funds, said that the market has mixed fundamentals and technicals that individually might scare investors but that ultimately are no cause for worry in the short run, because they aren't pointing to a recession in the near-term. That said, he did discuss taking a defensive posture for the current markets, using preferred-stock mutual funds and municipal-bond funds as safe haven that should produce above-average income going forward. Also on the show, author Liz Frazier discusses her new book on teaching kids about money, 'Beyond Piggy Banks and Lemonade Stands,' Sam McBride of New Constructs puts all new initial public offerings in 'the Danger Zone' and we rebroadcast a recent chat with Andrew Foster of Seafarer Capital Management.
