In this episode, Kathy and Liz Ann dive into a review of Fed policy, including the new developments with the Fed's balance sheet. In addition to likely cutting rates later this year, the Fed is preparing to slow down the pace of quantitative tightening. They also discuss inflation expectations and the impact of geopolitical risks on inflation.

The conversation then shifts to the importance of managing risk in a portfolio, both in terms of asset allocation and emotional risk tolerance. They also touch on risk considerations in fixed income investments. Finally, they share their reading, listening, and watching recommendations.
