<p>Is today’s stock market priced too high? Economist Brian Wesbury, Chief Economist at First Trust Advisors, has been warning that the market is overvalued by roughly 40% based on his fair value model of the S&P 500.</p>
<p>In this week’s Fastest 4 Minutes in Finance, Scott Inman breaks down Wesbury’s analysis:</p>
<ul>
<li>Why rising Treasury yields could drag stock values lower</li>
<li>Why First Trust has set a year-end S&P 500 target of 5,200 (a potential 19% drop)</li>
<li>What AI, big tech, and other sectors may mean for long-term growth opportunities</li>
</ul>
<p>Bottom line: Expect volatility in the coming months, but remember—the key is to stay invested for long-term growth while working with a financial advisor to make smart adjustments along the way.</p>
