MARCH 26, 2021 [View in browser]( HOW TO PROTECT AND GROW YOUR BUSINESS AND INVESTMENTS NOW With Congress passing trillions of dollars in new spending and the Federal Reserve keeping interest rates near zero, talk of inflation is heating up. The staff of The Kiplinger Letter is projecting that the headline inflation rate will finish this year around 2.5%, after coming in at only 1.4% at the end of 2020, when the pandemic kept the prices of many goods and services low. Chances are some months this year will show prices rising even faster, at 3% or more. Rising prices eat into the purchasing power of the cash in your bank account, unfortunately. But for seniors who depend heavily on Social Security, there is one small silver lining to stronger inflation: The Social Security Administration will likely grant a larger cost of living adjustment next year. The Kiplinger Letter [forecasts]( that next year’s COLA, which will be made in January of 2022, will come in at about 3%. This year’s increase, by contrast, was just 1.3%. --------------------------------------------------------------- SPONSORED CONTENT FROM DAILY PNUT [Daily News in a Nutshell]( Daily Pnut (pronounced “peanut”) is the easiest way to filter out the noise and learn more about the world news that matters.

Shipping data firm Lloyd’s List says the blockage is holding up around $400 million in trade for each hour it persists. That’s difficult news for a number of markets, notably crude oil, but KBW analyst Michael Brown has found one area of opportunity for investors. “Broadly speaking, disruption to containerized trade is a net positive for the container lessors as it drives a need to add containers to global shipping fleets to address shortfalls from the disruptive event,” he says. “This is common across all forms of disruption, including weather, labor strikes, and regulatory changes (example: the shift from solvent-based paints to waterborne paints for containers).” At the moment, he is reiterating his Overweight rating on a group of prominent lessors: Triton International ([TRTN]( Textainer Group ([TGH]( and CAI International ([CAI](.
