Dr. Minniti brought an elegant level of basic explanation of insurability of investments by FDIC, limits, and requirements. His presentation might be outdated, especially in speculating on interest rate increases by the Fed. I am sure that myCPE should schedule a time to freshen up the presentation, especially if it is assumed to be real time.
