Inflation’s Importance to Financial Markets Cannot Be Overstated | Weekly Market Commentary | June 16, 2025

Inflation’s effects on the economy, monetary policy, and the financial markets are wide-ranging. Higher inflation can constrain economic growth, tighten financial conditions, drive interest rates higher and even restrain stock valuations — higher inflation dampens the present value of future earnings and, historically, correlates with lower stock valuations.

SECURITY

Security and account protection with LPL Financial

The LPL Financial SIPC membership provides account protection up to a maximum of $500,000 per customer, of which $250,000 may be claimed for cash. For an explanatory brochure, visit www.sipc.org. Moreover, through London Insurers, LPL Financial accounts have additional securities protection to cover the net equity of customer accounts up to an overall aggregate firm limit of $575 million subject to conditions and limitations. The account protection applies when an SIPC member firm fails financially and is unable to meet obligations to securities clients, but it does not protect against losses from the rise and fall in the market value of investments. This extensive coverage reflects a strong commitment to servicing your investment needs.
