President's Letter

Letter from the president

by Jim Lineweaver, CFP(R), President and Founder

Ever since I was a kid, summers have been a special time of year.  Back then no school and the freedom of summer were a thing of beauty. It’s a great time to be outdoors, enjoying all Northeast Ohio has to offer. We’re not held captive by the cold weather of winter and can spend more time with family, friends and neighbors. I don’t want to rain on your parade, but winter will be back before you know it. So why am I reminding you of something you would probably like to forget? Don’t let summer slip away without taking advantage of it. If there is something you would like to do or someplace you would like to go my suggestion to you is to do it now.  It could be as simple as going out for ice cream or throwing a hot dog on the grill!

Let’s take this thinking one step further. If there is something that is on your bucket list, why not start putting plans in place to check it off of your list. If you have the resources and health now, take advantage of both of them and make that dream a reality. None of us know what the future holds….putting things off might mean they never become a reality; I have seen it happen all too often. Don’t make that mistake. If there is something on your bucket list and you would like our assistance making certain it won’t upset your financial plans give us a call. I recently met with a client that wanted to know if they could afford a new sailboat; they are shopping for one now!

We are six years into a period of economic expansion coupled with six years of rapid market growth. Just like summer will come to an end, so will the pace at which we have seen the market growth and expansion. We have taken some initial steps to insulate you from the upcoming volatility, and will take additional steps as warranted. Having said that, if you would like to review your portfolio for further adjustments,  give us a call.

There are myths about how the market behaves in the summer, and they tend to contradict one another. One thought is that sometime between Memorial Day and Labor Day there typically is a significant upturn in the market, or a summer rally. The opposite belief is that summer does not bode well for stocks, and you should sell in May and go away and get back in the market in the fall. You can find statistics that support each camp. We tend to think that there can be similarities in market cycles, but each year, as each client, is unique.

While you are relaxing and enjoying summer I want you to know that my staff and I are hard at work….for you! I’ve put together a top notch staff so that we can provide you with a level of service that is unparalleled. If you need something, we are here for you.
