Every year, big Wall Street banks predict where the stock market will end up the following year. How many got their 2023 prediction right? 0! In fact, with all their data and resources, only 5 times out of the last 13 years has the stock market even closed within the full range of predictions from the entire group!

 

This tells us something important: trying to predict the market is tough! We don't waste time on guesses. Instead, we focus on managing risks in your portfolio using our RiskFirst® investment approach. We believe if we manage RiskFirst®, then success follows.

 

Wishing you a Happy, Healthy, and Prosperous New Year ahead!
