Risk and Opportunity

This is Jeff Wareham, ScotiaMcLeod Wealth Advisor, with some thoughts for investors outgrowing their mutual funds. Falling markets create risk and opportunity for you. Obviously, you may try to guess the best time to buy eqpuities, but this is risky, simply because market prices could continue to fall. The positive side is that income available on corporate bonds, preferred shares and even common stocks are exceptionally high. Regardless of when the market turns, you will eventually need income, and income producing investments have rarely been cheaper. Why not ride out this market volatility in the relative safety of bonds or preferred shares? Do you want to discuss your alternatives? Have you outgrown your mutual funds?
