Inflation is back, and many are asking: what is inflation, and how does it impact our investments? This video discusses the return of inflation and its effect on 401(k)s, highlighting why most cannot be protected.
We explore the concerns around a global spending crunch due to rising bond yields and review historical data on inflation’s impact from 1970-1980, offering insights for your retirement planning and wealth preservation. Inflation is quietly destroying retirement portfolios and if you’re a U.S. Investor still using a traditional 60/40 portfolio or relying on long-duration bonds, your 401k and retirement savings could run out years earlier than planned.
In this video, Certified Financial Planner, Joe Franklin breaks down exactly how to build an inflation-protected portfolio so your 401k keeps up with real-world inflation, not just the official CPI. Whether you’re already retired or still accumulating, you’ll learn how to manage sequence risk, and which specific mutual funds may be available in your 401k to help protect your retirement income from rising costs in America.
