This year to date and especially over the last 4-6 weeks the markets have acted in a way that can definitely play with one’s emotions. This chart is one we have been using for years that shows how emotions can cause a person to buy at the top of the markets and sell at the bottom which is just the opposite of what they should be doing. You should never trust emotions or let them get in the way when making any financial decision, yet that is what many people do. Ask us how our tactical managers can help you avoid getting caught in the cycle of market emotions. (more…)
The last major downturn in the markets was in 2008. Before that it was 2001/2002. If we repeat the 6-7 year cycle once again, could we be possibly in for another major market correction soon based on recent history? I hope not.
Our new workshop entitled “Managing God’s Wealth Wisely” is a workshop that teaches how to manage wealth from a Biblical worldview by utilizing all the resources God has entrusted today, and planning for wisely passing them to the next generations. For a Christian, all financial decisions should be spiritual decisions incorporated into your faith that reflect your values.
