Here’s a chart of top tax rates going back to 1920, from a Bloomberg article this weekend on high earners investing beyond their 401(k).

A 401(k) defers your taxes, but the bill can come due at an inconvenient time. I often see retired families with other income sources forced to take required minimum distributions (RMDs) they don’t need, which can lead to a bigger tax bill.

What do you think about your 401(k) plan? Comment below!👇

Understanding how people think and behave is essential. But understanding why they make the decisions they do is beyond just important… It is crucial for long-term financial planning.

Morning market update ☀️

Records are taking a breather — the S&P 500 and Nasdaq both closed at new highs yesterday, but futures are sliding this morning. The 10-year Treasury is back above 5.3%, a 24-year high, and Brent crude is over $100 again after Houthi attacks on Saudi targets.

Today: a $39B 10-year auction at 1pm ET, then FOMC minutes at 2pm from September's Fed hike.

Midterm Election Year Stats for the last 50 years- I will say the average is pulled down by 2002 and 2022, which were bear markets driven by the.com bust and rate hikes rather than by elections.

𝗔𝗹𝗹 𝗲𝘆𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗲𝘁 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸.

Wednesday brings the minutes from September's Fed meeting — the one where they raised rates for the first time in three years — surrounded by a full week of Fed speakers. And here is the strange reality we are living in right now: the market is wrestling, not wrestling. The Nasdaq is at all-time highs while the 10-year Treasury yield hit 5.30% today — a level not seen in over twenty years. Somehow, both of those things are happening simultaneously.

September jobs report just came out — and it was a miss.

Only 29,000 jobs added last month. Economists expected about 85,000. Unemployment ticked up to 4.2%.

Plain English: companies aren't firing much, but they aren't hiring much either. The job market is cooling.

One silver lining — a weak report makes it less likely the Fed raises rates this month. That matters if you're borrowing for trucks, equipment, or a building.

Are you feeling it out there — harder or easier to find good help right now?
