Stack Financial's Johnson: 'This is your grandfather's stock market'

Zach Jonson, senior portfolio manager for Stack Financial Management, says that inflationary pressures that haven't been seen in over 40 years and the tightest labor market in history mean that what has worked in recent years will not be panning out so well going forward. That means "This is not your father's market," Jonson says, and investors need to go old school and get more defensive, expecting to see some pain before they the market gets positioned for a long-term recovery. Jonson also notes that the average constituent of the NASDAQ Composite Index is down 42 percent from 52-week highs, so while index returns have yet to show substantial drawdowns, a lot of investors have already suffered serious pain, which is likely to get worse from here unless they make defensive moves. Also on the show, Mike Taggart of Taggart Fund Intelligence and the Active Investment Company Alliance, talks about how closed-end funds fared during the rugged first quarter of the year, Derek Izuel of Shelton Capital Management covers international markets and how current events will have long-term impacts over how foreign investments are used and perceived, and Medicare expert Diane Omdahl of Sixty-Five Inc. discusses the importance of shopping around and knowing the rules before buying Medicare supplement insurance coverage.
