2018 Viewpoint
Our 2018 Viewpoint begins on an optimistic note. Growth continues to pick up by most accounts, businesses are again investing, and asset values are near records. Confidence necessary for risk taking is apparent, and inflation remains at bay. On the other hand, we are now confronted with higher valuations in many asset classes, which we feel should eventually weigh on long-run returns.
This annual Viewpoint, along with quarterly updates, provides an organized way of looking at the economy, financial markets, and your portfolio.
