look at all of your options if you are returning to the market

With August drawing to a close, markets continue to show remarkable resilience. The Dow has been up for eight straight days. Many investors still have a lot of cash on the sidelines, and cash is essentially earning nothing. In this environment, it may be very tempting to wade back in to the equity market. Despite the temptation, it makes sense to look at all of your options if you are returning to the market. Instead of rushing out and simply buying an equity mutual fund, why not consider some other alternatives, like bonds or preferred shares, as a complement to buying stocks. Before you get back in, give me a call.

Do you want to discuss your alternatives?
Have you outgrown your mutual funds?
