Recession Risks Far Greater Than Inflation Fears as Economic ‘Cracks Widen’ – Kristina Hooper

Jeremy Szafron, Anchor at Kitco News, interviews Kristina Hooper, Chief Global Market Strategist at Invesco, to unpack the implications of the Federal Reserve’s recent 50 basis point rate cut. Hooper, who had previously cautioned about potential economic weaknesses back in July, discusses how these rate cuts may be pointing to broader vulnerabilities in the economy. She shares her views on the potential for a "softish landing" but also highlights the risks of recession due to prolonged restrictive monetary policies. The discussion touches on the resilience in the U.S. economy, concerns over inflationary pressures, and why gold has reached new all-time highs as a safe-haven asset. Kristina also delves into investment strategies, advising viewers on how to navigate an uncertain market, including opportunities in small caps, cyclical sectors, and international equities.

I feel investors should be focusing on under the radar stocks, and considering the current rollercoaster nature of the stock market, because 35% of my $175k portfolio comprises of plummeting stocks which were once revered and I don't know where to go here out of devastation.
