Michael Power, strategist at Investec Asset Management, an international money manager, says that something doesn't look right with the American stock market back at record high levels and seemingly 'walking on air' despite the recent inversion of the yield curve and economic numbers that show slowing and increasing weakness. The U.S. market remains the world's strongest, Power said, but that difference is less pronounced, and valuations in other countries may make it so that international investments -- especially in emerging markets -- are more attractive than U.S. stocks and bonds going forward. Also on the show, Jim Ewing of HighTower Advisors discusses how current market conditions make this a particularly good time to rebalance a portfolio, Sarah Foster of Bankrate.com discusses Valentine's Day spending, and Louis Navellier of the Navellier Funds talks about growth stocks in the Market Call.
