1st Quarter Review - Am I still Optimistic for 2nd Quarter?
The first quarter of this year was very forgiving of any errors. We've had low volatility, generally positive economic reports, and even Europe has been less in the news than previously.
Watch my video for my thoughts about the 1st quarter, and to find out if I'm still optimistic for the 2nd quarter and rest of the year.

In case you're curious about my video at the beginning of the year, here it is.

The VIX (implied volatility index) has become very steep.
The 7th contract (6 months out) is significantly higher than current implied volatility.
What does this mean?
It simply means that the market is pricing in risks of a correction later on in the year.
Will it happen? Nothing is for certain, and if you have a long term diversified strategy (which hopefully you do) then this may just be a bump in the road.
Client?
Are you interested in talking with me about your finances and investments but not sure if we're the right fit? I have clients of all portfolio sizes, ages, employment, and stages of life. What I like to do is make a difference in someone's life. Frankly, it's just as rewarding for me to work with a young couple who are serious about planning and saving for their future as it is to manage portfolios and wealth for business owners and retirees. Don't be shy. If you're curious about whether we'd be a right fit, give me a call and we can talk. It would be a great honor. China had a Trade Deficit in February 
China had its largest trade deficit in 22 years this past February of $31.5 billion.
Why? Weaker demand from Europe and the United States is one reason. Factories being temporarily shut down due to Chinese New Year could be another reason.
Is this seasonal anomaly or one more bad sign coming out of China?
Stay tuned

Pizza Ordering with Ease
 So, just in case you're too lazy to hit the pre-programmed number on your phone to order a pizza, they now have a bluetooth enabled refrigerator magnet that you push and then it automatically orders your usual pizza at the usual pizza joint for delivery. I'm glad I didn't have this when I was in college. Fridge Magnet Lets You Order Pizza With Ridiculous Ease |

I'd love to talk more with you about the above topics or anyway I can help you grow and preserve your money while providing for yourself, your family, and community.
