Good afternoon everybody and welcome to the Tuesday edition of Invest Talk is December

6, 2022, and we're well into December, six days into December, and we only have a few weeks

left to the foretold Christmas, two and a half weeks, and then the new year, and we'll

be upon us and then we'll start 2023, what, 2023 be better than 2022 in the stock market?

Well it's hard to imagine it'd be worse because it has not been a very good year.

But then again last year, 2021 was a very good year, it's a way it goes.

I still think we, you know, it's going to be a tough beginning of 2023, but I don't

think it's going to end poorly for some reason.

I don't.

I think we'll have a decent year next year for the stock market.

But you still have to look at your portfolio, you still have to balance it, and you'll

certainly hope you're considering your taxes and tax law selling right now, because this

is the time to think about it.

You got until the end of the month, so I certainly would consider it, and we are considering

for our account, so you need to do that too.
