Market volatility is on everyone's mind but how can you protect your finances from the ebb and flow of the market? Chris Hutchins, Founder and CEO of Grove, joins Your Cheddar to discuss how to prepare yourself financially if you want to jump into investing.
Hutchins recently launched Grove, a financial planning service that combines personalized financial advice and technology. He talks about why some people may want a human financial advisor rather than a robot or app. In addition, he predicts what the future of financial automation will be.
Plus, Hutchins is a former partner at Google Ventures where he invested in multiple startups. He gives three pieces of advice for people looking to raise capital: have a passion for what you're doing, have a great team of people and produce a product that is proven to enhance the lives of customers using it.
Apple CEO Tim Cook said Thursday that the majority of iPhones sold in the U.S. in the current fiscal quarter will be sourced from India, while iPads and other devices will come from Vietnam as the company works to avoid the impact of President Trump’s tariffs on its business. Apple’s earnings for the first three months of the year topped Wall Street’s expectations thanks to high demand for its iPhones, and the company said tariffs had a limited effect on the fiscal second quarter’s results. Cook added that for the current quarter, assuming things don’t change, Apple expects to see $900 million added to its costs as a result of the tariffs.
