Managed Asset Portfolios Weekly Webinar August 17, 2026
Aug 18, 2026Join our latest investment webinar as Michael Dzialo, Chief Investment Officer of Managed Asset Portfolios, discusses the latest inflation data, expectations for Federal Reserve policy, and why energy prices remain an important consideration for investors.
The discussion begins with July consumer and producer inflation reports, which came in largely as expected and slightly softer in some areas. While the data reduced expectations for a potential September interest rate increase, inflation remains above the Federal Reserve’s target, reinforcing the need to remain attentive to evolving economic conditions.
The webinar also examines potential upward pressure on energy prices as the impact of tax and tariff refunds fades, global strategic petroleum reserves decline, and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East continue. The session concludes with a preview of next week’s discussion on the most frequently asked questions on asset allocation and the factors investors should consider when determining the appropriate mix of equities and fixed income in their portfolio.
