Yes, there were major events last week, like a Presidential election and a Federal Reserve Board meeting. And yes, there were some portfolio-related stories around each, which you can read at your leisure: Wall Street Salivates Over a New Trump Boom (https://www.wsj.com/finance/stocks/wall-street-salivates-over-a-new-trump-boom-c32cf952?st=wwKkNp&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink) and Fed Cuts Rates Again, This Time by a Quarter Point (https://www.wsj.com/economy/central-banking/fed-cuts-rates-again-as-election-reshapes-growth-outlook-99d48e83?st=Cs7DrQ&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink) .
This is my seventh Presidential cycle while working with private clients, and the country's tilt has been pretty close to even since the "hanging chad" days. No matter who wins, I am likely to hear about someone who is ready to pack up and leave the country for a few years until the pendulum swings back the other way.
Because of that, this story caught my eye as it highlights several European countries that will actually pay you to relocate there. What's the catch? Most locales are remote and struggling with diminishing populations. If you're looking to get off the grid with a postcard-worthy view, this just might be the ticket. (Yes, we do offer international brokerage accounts.)
Last but certainly not least, a big thank you to all our military families for their service. Happy Veterans Day!
Considering leaving the US? These European towns will pay you to relocate (https://www.citizen-times.com/story/news/local/2024/11/06/what-countries-can-i-move-to-these-places-will-pay-you-to-move/76090928007/)

Great news, girls! Menopause is no longer a taboo subject. Gone are the days when women never complained or discussed the gamut of symptoms associated with perimenopause (the transition into menopause), menopause, and postmenopause and suffered through it as “part of the life of being a woman.” There is a growing number of health professionals that now specialize in menopause. There’s even an annual conference put on by the Menopause Society that brings together over 1,300 healthcare professionals, including key thought leaders, decision-makers, and educators in their respective fields, for a comprehensive scientific program of presentation on the latest research and its clinical application. The Global Menopause Market was valued at $16.9 billion in 2022 and is poised to grow to $26.97 billion by 2031. There is a need! The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2023 approved Astellas Pharma’s drug to treat menopausal hot flashes, and pharmaceutical giant Bayer is currently developing a
similar medication. Some companies are beginning to offer menopause benefits to their employees. Lawmakers have pushed for more research on menopause. And a flurry of menopause-focused startups have launched in recent years to supplement traditional care since studies suggest a significant portion of people going through menopause are not treated. In addition, women such as celebrities Naomi Watts, Oprah Winfrey, and Halle Berry are making it ok to finally and openly discuss menopause in everyday life. If you celebrate aging, you must celebrate every faucet, including menopause, because IT IS EVERY DAY life for millions of women.

The end of Halloween marks the start of the Holiday Season. Don’t fight it. It includes Thanksgiving, so just enjoy it. Many see the holidays as an opportunity to indulge in decadent yummies. So, while we might blame all the sweets like cookies, cakes, and candies for the excess weight gain from the holidays, perhaps your favorite festive beverage could be worse. Here’s a highlight of 8 popular drinks, like eggnog, hot chocolate, pumpkin spice latte, and more, to help you make better choices. Or you may just enjoy and worry about the calories in the new year when you can join the 95% of New Year’s resolutions that are fitness-related. Ho-ho-ho!
