we are covering your assets tonight with jonathan hoenig and two important guests. thank you so much for being on the show. shane, and jonathan. okay, this market is on fire. >> you don't want to invest in an investment strategy just because it runs like sell in may and go away. and it's cute and memorable, but what's even more important in people's bottom line is how stocks are or how they are acting today in right now today stocks are still in a old market as evidenced by an all-time high. and you always want to invest with care. the trend remains up and trends tend to persist. gerri: okay, is jonathan keeping it safe? do you agree with what he is saying? >> i believe that jonathan is right for certain point. but i am very cautious and there's a lot of potential within the next few months. the money has to go somewhere. maybe you are usually -- are you still buying? >> yes, i am. there's definitely some good fundamentals behind what jonathan and sharon are both saying. it is only about 15 times earnings, technically the market is healing, and the earnings are goin

jonathan hoenig, my concern with this is that we tend to think of exchanges as bad for the nominee emma the eventual nominee but i always argue in the general election they will be reps a new one anyway. where is the fear they start going back, grab a bite or a comment somebody said and it doesn't go away? >> let's hope it doesn't go away. it is an opportunity for the candidate to not only define him or herself, but also what the party is about. the g.o.p. is somewhat of a transition. going a more traditional counter out or more of the tea party libertarian road. i think for the parties themselves to define what are the essentials, what are the fundamentals they will present to the american public on. neil: it is unusual to have 20 and even more of these type of exchanges ierybody wants a shot. between me and dora the explorer, you don't have to wait too long to have a chance at doing this and i wonder again waters down. you don't mean that about me. >> there should be one debate. you should have 20 of nothing in your life. nothing except maybe going to my mother's house for christmas d

our panel of experts is back with more advice for your wallet, jonathan hoenig, shane ciderman and veronica dagger. welcome back. jonathan, i'll start with you this time. so apparently, if you invested in simple index funds, you would have beaten 90% of the money managers who run money, and they pick stocks themselves. i mean, this is a great argument for setting it and forgetting it. >> well, and indeed, no question, gerri, and that is one of the arguments for index funds is that not only do they do well and follow the market in the up markets, but even in the down markets the comparatively low expenses, as you said, a simple index fund which charges pennies a year is beating the active managers who charge 1.5, 2%. the problem comes, of course, when the stock market declines. that's when particularly looking at those uncorrelated asset classes really shines, but in an up market, tough to beat the indices. gerri: it's not even that up, shane. this has been a market where people thought because there wouldn't be a big trajectory in the big indexes that actually getting in there and looking a
