We introduce ourselves. He is easygoing, easy to talk to. Some people don’t, but he makes a good conversation. Camera Icon Thought her date was ‘hot’: Alex.

Chris Blumas understands why investors might be nervous about a looming recession. Illustration after illustration of Joel Kimmel Money manager Chris Blumas understands why many investors are reluctant to buy stocks at this time, given the economic threats, including predictions of a growing recession.
