MJP Wealth Advisors’ chief investment officer, Brian Vendig, breaks down his outlook for stocks. “Expect a rise in markets powered by earnings,” Vendig explains, while also discussing tech, Venezuelan oil, and the broader energy sector.
Meredith Whitney Advisory Group CEO Meredith Whitney discusses the real estate market and why it could remain “gummed up” in 2026.
Whitney says that even if mortgage rates do drop, high prices and lack of inventory could prevent the real estate market from loosening up. She also adds that more people will be tapping into their home’s equity as they stay in their homes longer and face affordability challenges.
