## Resource

Investing IINsights (Weekly Email — Audio Edition): Mortgage rates up again, GDP revised down again, and PCE inflation is still yucky. This week didn’t bring one massive headline—but the data is loud if you’re paying attention: borrowing costs are staying high, growth is cooling, and inflation isn’t cooperating… all while income and disposable income slip . In this episode, we break down what the numbers actually suggest (and how they contradict the “everything is fine” narrative), then we move into dividend-focused action items and portfolio updates. In this week’s Investing IINsights: Why rising mortgage rates can quietly crush confidence and spending (with lag effects) What the GDP revision says about consumer strength (or lack of it) PCE: prices up, income down, disposable income down — and why services inflation matters most Top 5 IINvestments going ex-dividend next week (including two we now own) Preferred shares vs common shares: why yield + entry price can change the whole equation Why payout ratios can mislead if you only look at earnings instead of cash flow Portfolio updates: adding a dividend grower, trimming risk, and reallocating into safety + dry powder The tradeoff we’re making on purpose: less income now, more portfolio stability in this environment If you want a weekly filter for macro noise + practical dividend watchlist ideas + real portfolio decisions, this is the episode. _________________________________________________________________________________ Questions?
