As part of my series of blogs on making plans for 2014, I'd like to share with you a list of important news sources that I use to stay current on news that will affect the markets and my clients.
Back in the days of the Pony Express, news traveled very slowly, but in these days there's more news happening more quickly than one person, even an advisor, can follow. So if you want to stay abreast of current events you must do two things. First, leverage technology to increase the efficiency with which you receive the news. Second, go directly to the source rather than solely rely on a third-party news outlet which will only report what that outlet deems relevant. With this as a backdrop, I'll share some information on a few subscription services which are particularly helpful for an investment advisor.
The subscriptions will include information on a broad array of topics.
Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA)
- Housing
- Manufacturing
- GDP
- Durable Goods
- Personal Income
Clicking on the highlighted links below will allow you to subscribe to the agencies' newsletters.
