This week she’s joined by Zacks Chief Equity Strategist, John Blank, to take a look at what is coming next for the global economy, the cities, and where stock investors should be looking to put their money to work.
John recently took at remote work and productivity gains in the Zacks August Economic Report.

There will also be companies that will simply do well because of the strong economy that is expected over the next two quarters.
