Markets continue in turmoil as Donald Trump shakes up the world. Let’s face it: some think the world needs shaking up; and many think Trump is absolutely crazy and harmful. As a result, investors, especially those in the later camp, are taking action to reflect a view that the world will be less stable.

 As your investment manager, our job is to put clients in quality investments that can ride through this turbulence. People will continue to use Apple phones even if we have tariffs on Mexico. AT&T will continue to pay interest on its bonds even though the Ukraine war may continue.

 Our view is that we do not sell quality investments during temporary bad situations.  As crazy as Trump’s threatened actions are, he can just as easily reverse his position, which he’s done before. And speaking of temporary situations, we put recessions in the same category. I have lived through eight recessions and have survived to talk about it.

 If we sell quality investments now, we will not own them when they bounce back. Hang in there, and if you have questions, call us. 352-238-6411
