Market headlines can change by the hour. Jobs reports, interest rates, earnings, AI and geopolitical news can all move stocks in the short term.

But one of the biggest risks to a retirement plan is much quieter: inflation.

In this episode, Josh, Logan and Bruce discuss why reacting to daily market swings can lead investors off course, why a rising S&P 500 doesn’t always tell the full story, and why retirement planning has to account for more than just investment returns.

They also look at how inflation can slowly reduce the purchasing power of pensions and other fixed income sources, and why retirees may need a mix of predictable income, growth and inflation protection to help their money last.

The goal isn’t to predict every market move. It’s to build a retirement plan that can withstand them.
