Stocks hold up as rates surge -- What happens next??
Stocks managed to hold near record highs even as Treasury yields jumped and expectations for a September Fed rate hike increased.
The August jobs report showed 162,000 jobs added, roughly three times economists' expectations, while unemployment held at 4.1%. The strong labor market was good news for the economy—but potentially bad news for stocks because it gives the Fed less reason to ease policy.
📈 Stocks shrug off higher rates
Why the S&P 500 and Nasdaq continue to show resilience
Can stocks keep climbing if yields remain elevated?
💼 The jobs report changes the Fed conversation
162,000 jobs added in August

The market is increasingly pricing in a September hike
💰 Treasury yields are the key

Whether higher yields finally put pressure on growth stocks
The market is sending an interesting message: the economy looks strong enough to support earnings, but perhaps too strong for the Fed to cut rates.
The big question now is whether stocks can continue to rise if inflation remains sticky, oil moves higher and Treasury yields stay elevated.

How I’d Build a $1 Million Portfolio From Scratch
What would I buy if I were starting from $0 today and wanted to build a $1 million portfolio over the next 20 years?
In this episode of Let It Grow Investing, we break down how I’d approach building a balanced, growth-focused portfolio at age 40.
📈 The Rule of 120 — why 80% stocks / 20% bonds can make sense at 40
🇺🇸 Core holdings — building around broad-market ETFs
🚀 Growth stocks — adding companies like NVDA, META, AMZN, GOOGL, MSFT and TSLA
🌎 International & small-cap exposure for diversification
💰 Bonds & cash — why you still need a defensive side
₿ Bitcoin & higher-risk investments — how much is too much?
🔄 Rebalancing — when to buy, sell and adjust
💵 The math behind $1 million — what monthly contributions and returns could get you there
🧠 Most importantly: building a portfolio you can actually stick with through a major market crash
The goal isn't to find the next 10X stock. It's to build a portfolio that can compound for 20 years while still allowing room for higher-conviction investments.
