Rising rates have grabbed headlines, but they're only one inning in a much longer game. Easing inflation, healthy consumer spending and growing corporate profits point to an economy that remains on solid footing.

Bond yields recently climbed to their highest levels in decades as investors weighed sticky inflation, booming AI investment and robust economic growth. In this evolving environment, higher interest rates are creating new opportunities in fixed income while shifting market leadership across equities.

The Fed raised interest rates for the first time in three years, as widely expected. While the announcement prompted an initial market reaction, resilient economic growth, strong corporate earnings and continued consumer spending could help support equities, even if interest rates move somewhat higher. Meanwhile, higher short-term bond yields may create new opportunities for investors seeking income.

Many people assume financial confidence comes with age. In my experience, it's not quite that simple.

New research from Edward Jones and Gallup shows that people across generations share concerns about their financial future. Younger adults are often working to build wealth, while older adults are focused on making their savings last. But both are looking for greater peace of mind about what's ahead.

That's one reason I enjoy helping clients create personalized strategies that align with their goals and priorities, both today and as their needs evolve over time.

Older adults are much more confident than younger adults in managing their current finances. Confidence in managing future finances, however, differs less by age.

As I sat at this light in traffic this morning, I literally watched the sun go from nothing to this. It reminded me just how fast time moves—and how often we’re too busy to even notice it happening. Slow down. Be patient. Enjoy the moment you’re in. We only get this life once. “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift.” Enjoy the gift. Don’t spend so much time living in the other two that you miss today. ☀️

On this day, we remember and honor the lives lost on 9/11. We will never forget what happened, the heroes who stepped forward, and the strength of a nation that came together.

🇺🇸 Never Forget. 9/11.

I'm encouraged to see that Gen Z is already thinking about building long-term financial security. Yet research shows many young adults still haven't taken the first step by participating in a workplace retirement plan.

As a financial advisor, I know that getting started can often be the hardest part of saving and investing. Having access to the right resources, education and guidance can help individuals build healthy financial habits and greater confidence in their future.

That's why I find it so rewarding to help people make progress toward their goals, so they can feel more confident about their future.
