May 1st is National Investing Day, something Charles Schwab has "pioneered and championed," says Cooper Howard. He encourages folks to get educated and get active with market participation. Later, Cooper provides his perspective on this week's FOMC dissent and the potential ripple effects it could have on rate policy moving forward. He sees short-term interest rates buoyed to current levels. Looking at longer-term rates, Cooper sees a bit of a floor forming especially if the Fed stands pat on cuts. He says next week's employment data should be watched closely for the Fed's employment mandate.
