Checking In with Ara – March 2024
Hey everyone it’s Ara with your March 2024 update. I hope everyone is doing well. I’ve been busy traveling back and forth between the San Diego and Arizona offices. Also, I’ve been looking at possibly planning a spring trip and trying to decide where I want to go. I’ve been to so many different places and trying to find someplace that’s new and exciting, and that can be a little daunting. Peru is on my radar, and time permitting, it might just be the next adventure.
Market Insights: S&P 500 Reaches New Heights
In an unexpected turn of events, the S&P 500 has soared to its all-time high, a stark contrast to its performance in 2022 and the subsequent recovery in 2023. This remarkable milestone in February 2024 serves as a testament to the unpredictable nature of the market, underscoring the importance of strategic planning. The “bucket strategy” has never been more relevant, especially in times of persistent inflation concerns. To navigate these turbulent waters, a keen focus on equities within your portfolio (Bucket Number Three) is crucial. Stay tuned for our review meetings, where we’ll introduce fresh investment ideas to bolster your financial resilience.
