[ad_1] It’s been a good year so far for Vanguard’s so-called 40/60 strategy. The model portfolio is overweight on fixed income, with the idea that higher bond yields can offer some cushion against moderate price increases.

[ad_1] You may find ChatGPT useful for many things. A friend showed me the other day how he used it to turn a photo of his daughter’s favorite stuffed animal into a printed-out coloring book, which seemed pretty nifty.Here’s something I have now also tried on ChatGPT and do not recommend: looksmaxxing.For the uninitiated: “Looksmaxxing” is a term for the quest to improve one’s looks through skincare, hair styling, new clothes, and physical fitness.

[ad_1] For this week’s column, I was planning to do a simple analysis of the Nasdaq-100 showing a holding pattern that’s been in place since May 13. Upon the completion of this consolidation, we should resolve to the upside testing the all-time highs — despite all the lingering macro headwinds. But when I learned about Meta Platforms signing a nuclear power deal with Constellation Energy , I decided to focus on the companies literally powering this revolution in artificial intelligence.
