Economic analyst Hank Fishkind says two recent developments in financial news offer a preview of money matters for the coming year: details of the new Congressional budget resolution and retail sales data for the US and Florida.

Fishkind starts with the 2016-17 budget resolution he says was largely motivated by some lawmakers’ desire to repeal Obamacare. But, he tells 90.7's Nicole Darden-Creston there were other important economic issues in the resolution that deserve a closer look.
