Tue, Aug 19, 2025, 4 P.M. ET

Fritz Meyer’s classes examine emergent issues through the lens of economic fundamentals, guiding professionals through changing data. This equips advisors with economic understanding required to formulate an investment outlook based on facts. The learning objectives (LOs) are defined based on the latest data through August 19, which won't be known until the day of the live class, but here are underlying LOs common to all Fritz Meyer’s classes on financial economics:  

LO 1.   Review Performance of Main GDP Growth Drivers. Inflation, job formation, and other fundamentals are reviewed, enabling informed financial decisions based on current facts.

LO 2. Analyze Stock Market Reaction To Recent News.  Learners will feel better able to assess the impact of geopolitical events (e.g., Israel/Iran tensions and U.S. elections) on market performance, valuations, and volatility.

LO 3. Know Key Facts About Federal Reserve Monetary Policy. Learners will be better educated about how to interpret Federal Reserve's rate policy and grow conversant in the facts needed for making data-driven investment decisions.

LO 4. Formulate Investment Strategies Based on Earnings Valuations on S&P 500. Learners will be able to develop long-term investment strategies by analyzing current earnings valuations versus modern history.  

LO 5.  Grow Better Able To Create A Personal Economic Growth Outlook Based on Authoritative Sources. Learners will be able to develop their own GDP growth outlook informed by the most recent consensus forecasts of leading professional economists.

LO6. Review Important News & Analysis In Wall Street Journal (WSJ). Poignant news and analysis, as reported in WSJ, the largest U.S. financial news outlet, about the current financial economic situation, are reviewed. A curated review of important WSJ articles keeps participants current on what’s happening in financial economics based on an authoritative source.
