Avoiding Unforced Errors

In this week’s edition of the LifePro Asset Management Market & Portfolio Review, our head of Wealth Management, Robert Reaburn, walks through how we navigate a stock market that is sitting at record highs and that sticking to a disciplined investment process is just as important in a strong market as it is during times of heightened uncertainty.

Robert also reviews the framework that we use at LifePro Asset Management to assess whether a stock market record high is a reflection of gathering fundamental and internal market strength, or if it’s a final push higher before succumbing to deteriorating health within the core pillars that support the stock market. Additionally, we review recent U.S. consumer spending data and take a look at how the U.S. labor market is behaving, along with a quick health check on the credit and lending markets.

We also review the level of liquidity and inflation in the financial system, how these factors impact future monetary policy, and whether the current direction of money supply and inflation expectations has been historically positive or negative for asset prices. Lastly, we take a close look at investor positioning, the level of cash on the sidelines, and how we are positioning client portfolios as a result.
