Oil and energy is the lifeblood of our economy. We have to transport things. We have to get there.

And we're not in a situation where the average person can rely on their own garden at this point.

We just can't.

Hello, everyone, and welcome to this episode of Finance You.

I'm your host, Chris Martinson, and I'm back with Paul Kiker of Kiker Wealth Management.

Hi, Paul.

It seems like a year since we talked last. Oh, my goodness. It feels like, what is it? They say decades happen in weeks. It feels like a decade since last week. It does. It does. So much has happened. So this is what we're going to talk about today. Wow, the S&P 500 hit an all-time new high just today as we're recording this.

An all-time new high, not just recovered some of its post-onset of war market losses.

We have really low inflation as compared to what was expected and other oddities,

because it's an odd thing that we have to talk about there with that low inflation.

That's what I have on my plate.

Anything else in your plate today? No, just kind of try to talk people through what we know and what

we don't know. I will say the magnitude of this move is something that I don't remember seeing

so quickly and severely with the backdrop of known knowns, right?

Yeah, very interesting times.

You can see the Dow hasn't quite made it back to the 50,000 mark,

which Pambandi is famous for putting in our brains.
