Summary

Today's Post - https://bahnsen.co/42BoynY

It’s been a whirlwind of a week, and today is going to be a whirlwind of a Dividend Cafe. I came into my writing this morning with two or three topics to choose between, and I settled on “all of the above, plus several more.” I’ll leave the introduction short so we can get right into it. Between earnings season, a certain crux in the geopolitical moment, potential (likely?) new tax legislation, a modest market re-pricing of revised Fed expectations, some company considerations in our own portfolio management, and a pleading of the case for a “full-time” work mentality, there has been a lot going on at Team Bahnsen, and there is a lot in today’s Dividend Cafe … Let’s jump in!
