The Tom Dupree Show

Is market volatility a threat or an opportunity for your retirement income? On this week's Financial Hour of The Tom Dupree Show, Tom Dupree, James Dupree and Mike Johnson talk through the recent swings: a sell-off in AI-related tech stocks, telecom stocks rattled by SpaceX's push into wireless, and fast moves in Treasury yields. They explain headline risk, why AI stocks often rise and fall together even when their fundamentals differ, and why knowing what you own matters. For patient, income-focused investors, they say volatility can create opportunities. Dupree Financial Group | dupreefinancial.com | 859-233-0400.

Is the AI build-out overbuilt? This week's tech stock rotation moved money out of technology and into retailers, banks, insurers, REITs and makers of everyday goods. On this week's Financial Hour of The Tom Dupree Show, Tom Dupree, Mike Johnson and Michael Dawahare discuss what drove the shift, how AI data center debt (including CoreWeave's bonds) played a part, why a 5% Treasury yield is more normal than it feels, and what it all means for retirement income.

What does that mean if you are living on retirement income or getting close? On this week's Financial Hour of The Tom Dupree Show, Michael Dawahare, Mike Johnson and James Dupree cover the Fed's move and the bond market's reaction, oil and inflation, stock market volatility and AI stocks, the yen carry trade in plain English, and how Dupree Financial Group approaches dividend income.

A strong jobs report, oil prices climbing, and inflation data that still rattled the market. On this week's Financial Hour of The Tom Dupree Show, Tom Dupree, Mike Johnson and Michael Dawahare explain why headlines like these don't have to derail a retirement income plan. They cover sequence-of-returns risk, why averages stop mattering once you start drawing income, why a 401(k) of index funds wasn't built to pay a paycheck, and the role of dividend income and knowing what you own.
