Pleas, Convictions, and new Market Highs!

The FarrCast is back! People are coming back from vacation, and juries are returning with verdicts. Michael welcomes back the great Kenny Polcari to sort out what it means for the markets. Kenny says, in the short term, political noise might create volatility, but in the long-term does not price stocks. September is usually a rough month for equities, but Kenny thinks the markets hold up. UNLESS -- something comes out of left field.

Dan Mahaffee joins from the Center for the Study of the Presidency and Congress, and explains what the news from the Manafort trial and Cohen plea agreement impacts the "blue wave." The Trump Administration keeps stomping on its own good news, and it means we are likely moving to divided government after the midterms.

To start the new season, Michael welcomes one of the smartest market strategists in the business today, Mona Mahajan from Allianz Global. The year began with tax reform and the synchronized global growth story -- as the global story has fallen off, the US economy has remained robust. It's late in the cycle, and the Fed is raising rates, yes, there will be volatility, there will be rotation, but returns are still there for the informed the investor.
