Peter Ricchiuti Speaking Topics

Do These Earnings Make My PE Look Big???

How high is too high? The truth is that no investment is either good or bad. It is all a function of the price that you are buying or selling it at. This kind of thinking is often ignored in a market frenzy. It’s often tough to trust your instincts, focus on the historic patterns and not get swept up by all those talking heads. As economist John Kenneth Galbraith once said “there are two kinds of forecasters, those that don’t know, and those that don’t know that they don’t know.”

What The Financial Markets Are Telling Us Now??

The economy is inherently cyclical. While these cycles don’t necessarily repeat themselves, they usually rhyme. “The financial markets often foretell what’s ahead for the economy. This can illuminate opportunities and serve as valuable storm warnings for business leaders. A lot of this runs counter to what people are commonly hearing in the media.

Outline of topics covered:

  • Politics and Your Investments
  • Outlook for the Deficit and Interest Rates
  • Outlook for Energy Prices
  • Market Valuation Techniques
  • Pros and Cons of International Investing

Stocks Under Rocks: How to Uncover Overlooked, Profitable Market Opportunities

The Four Most Dangerous Words in Finance: "This Time It's Different!"

    As the economy continues to reopen, inflation is rising. New reports from The Federal Reserve show inflation going up at rates we haven’t seen in almost 30 years. The current inflation rate is at 5%. That is the highest it’s been since 1992. But that doesn’t really explain it. You read terms like "inflation" and it can seem detached from your finances.
