Everything at Highs: Tech, Rates, Gold and Cocoa

Motley Fool Money

Conventional theory says stocks, debt, and hedges shouldn’t all be at highs at the same time – what does it mean for investors?

(00:21) Emily Flippen and Matt Argersinger discuss:

- The latest inflation numbers and whether the Fed will actually cut rates in 2024.

- The oddity of stocks, interest rates, and alternative hedges like commodities all being up at the same time.

- Amazon CEO Andy Jassy’s annual letter, and why Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are all doing what they can to reduce reliance on Nvidia in AI. .

(19:11) Motley Fool Money’s Deidre Woollard talks with Barbara Kellerman – author of Leadership from Bad to Worse: What Happens When Bad Festers – about bad leaders, and bad followers, and lessons we can borrow from Volkswagon’s emissions scandal.

(28:33) Emily and Matt break down two stocks on their radar: Hershey and Coupang.
