Some current challenges include, wars, rumors of wars, political divisiveness, higher potential taxes, and rising inflation.

Certainly, based on a clients' age, timeframe, and propensity towards risk, most are not 100% invested in stocks. Yet whatever equity percentage we have agreed to, we want you to be confident with that allocation and only make changes because of a change to your goals, not because of changing headlines.  

As always, we are here for any questions, as well as to schedule face-to-face or Zoom meetings. At Henry Wealth Management, we understand that the "first thing we earn is trust." We are very grateful for the trust that you have placed in us.
