Welcome to another Weekly Market Update episode of Money Trekker Podcast with Tom Kemler of BKA Wealth Consulting. In this episode Jeff and Tom discuss:

The Fed made a big statement last week about their strategy going forward.
Ningpo, Tianjin, Shenzhen Ports in China closures due to Covid has had a major impact on Freight Forwarders.
Inflation continues to go up on a consumer basis, but PPI shows that businesses are continuing to have to offset that cost.
Retail sales were awful but January numbers can be a bit hinky.
We are less optimistic than we have been up to this point.
