Being totally forthcoming about your finances is important when speaking to a financial professional. That means no false modesty or bogus confidence about your situation. Talk about the things that matter to you, the things that concern you, and above all, ask frank questions!
In good times and bad, your financial professional is there to help. If you need someone to help you navigate what’s ahead and help you protect your finances, you can turn to your financial professional.
Your financial professional should get the scoop about your work life. Whether you get that big raise, start a new job or get a new title, or start your own business, your financial pro needs to be in the loop.
Who’s the first person you tell big news to? Your spouse? Your family? Put your financial professional near the top of your list. They need to know about the big transitions you make, so they can help you adjust your strategy accordingly.
We all have goals and dreams and things we’d like to pursue. But how can your financial professional be of any help if they don’t know what they are?
Consider a bucket plan to go with your bucket list.
A Bucket Plan to Go with Your Bucket List A bucket plan can help you be better prepared for a comfortable retirement.
In finance, every move by the Federal Reserve is a chess game that influences our investment strategies. The latest update? The Fed is in "watchful waiting" mode, ensuring inflation control efforts work before considering any rate cuts.
This balancing act is about reducing inflation without hindering demand - we don't want a recession, right? With the economy performing well and a strong labor market, the goal is to keep inflation at the 2% annual target.
But what does this mean for you, the investor? The Fed's cautious approach might delay expected rate cuts. This could affect bond yields, borrowing costs for businesses, and, ultimately, the return on your investments.
Keeping an eye on job growth and unemployment rates can provide insights into future Fed actions. And remember, slower but stable spending could lead to steady economic growth, which is good news for long-term investments.
Investing is a journey; each decision should align with your financial goals and risk tolerance. So, let's navigate these economic waves together.

The current market rally has lasted roughly nine months, about the length of the market's downtrend in 2022. While the Standard & Poor's 500 remains well below the high, the downtrend and the uptrend are starting to look similar. The first quarter gross domestic product expanded at a 2% rate, and the job market appears in good shape. Meanwhile, the stock market, considered a lead indicator, rallied in the first half, catching some by surprise. Those in the "just a matter of time before a recession" camp point to the yield curve. It remains inverted, with the interest rate on 2-year Treasury notes higher than on 10-year Treasury notes. Historically, an inverted yield curve has signaled a recession. Remain focused on your investment strategy, which reflects your goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance.
Jerome Powell's cautious stance on short-term rates may anticipate one more rate increase later this year, with rates potentially trending lower by December. While Powell hasn't finalized July's policy, all eyes are on economic reports like the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to gauge the situation. Considering Powell's past efforts to convince the market about transitory inflation, his conservative outlook is understandable. But with the challenging task of navigating monetary policy, we can expect positive news from the Fed if it aligns with the situation.
Wall Street awaits the results of debt ceiling negotiations. Attention may come back around to inflation and the Fed's monetary policy, afterwards. That's what 25 institutional investors surveyed by the New York Fed ranked as one of their top concerns for the next 12-18 months. But other factors could also take center stage.
📊 In April, there are 11 economic reports scheduled for release in 19 trading days. So if you're looking for a reason to worry, you won't have to wait too long. Stay tuned for the latest updates and analysis! 📊
After a complicated year, the next dawns with new opportunities. Now is the time to think about the new year and plan for action. The start of a year is the right time to work on a dream or two. It is also an excellent time to adjust or refine a financial strategy. Call our office at 860-263-7533 if you would like to start a conversation. Have a safe and Happy New Year!
