📰 On this week's episode of Minds Over Money, I go over 3 headlines from last week that directly impact the economy as well as potentially impacting your own investment portfolio. [12:32] And this week’s financial planning topic is The Right Retirement Mindset: how discipline, faith, and courage will help you follow your plan, not the markets and your emotions. 😰

⛱️ [0:54] The first headline, “Summer Worker Shortage Means Things Will Be Closed… Again”, is an article that explores how the tight labor market and abundance of unfilled jobs has created limited capacity, reduced hours, and even closures of some of our favorite summer activities.

🤖 [5:08] The second headline, “Robots Pick Up More Work at Busy Factories”, discusses how many manufacturers have turned to automated robots to help fill open jobs in order to keep up with demand and rising costs.

🛒 [8:32] Our final headline, “Facing Inflation-Weary Shoppers, Grocers Fight Price Increases”, is a deep dive into the unlikely ally against inflationary pressures in the food industry, the grocery chains themselves.

Hope you enjoy it!
