02.10.26 Ask An Advisor With Wes Moss

The Clark Howard Podcast

Why Everything Still Feels Expensive & Growth vs. Value Stocks: Which Is Best?

Is inflation going away? The reality is that while the rate of change might slow down to 2% or 3%, the cumulative "stacking" of past inflation remains, leaving consumers anchored to old prices while fighting for higher wages. Wes Moss explores why we can’t afford to get complacent and how this cycle is exactly why we invest in the first place. Also, Wes peels back the layers of the market to examine the two main "flavors" of investing: Growth vs. Value. Using the analogy of apples, Wes breaks down the fundamental differences between the fast-moving, low-dividend world of Growth stocks (like Amazon) and the mature, dividend-heavy world of Value stocks. Which fits best in your portfolio?

Plus, Christa shares your #AskWes questions and Wes gives his take. All this and more on the February 10, 2026, Ask an Advisor episode of the Clark Howard podcast. Submit your questions at clark.com/ask.
