Edward Jones - Financial Advisor: Christopher M. Larson

Edward Jones - Financial Advisor: Christopher M. Larson I work with professionals, business owners, pre-retirees, and retirees who value personalized advice and a long-term financial partner.

CFP®, AAMS® Professional | Financial Advisor helping established professionals, business owners, pre-retirees, and retirees navigate important financial decisions with confidence through comprehensive financial planning and personalized advice. As a CFP® professional, I help clients make informed financial decisions through comprehensive financial planning, investment guidance, and retirement stra

tegies tailored to their goals. Whether you're preparing for retirement, evaluating investment strategies, planning a business transition, or creating a legacy, I help clients make informed financial decisions with clarity and confidence. I earned bachelor's degrees in Corporate Finance and Personal Financial Planning from Southwest Minnesota State University, graduating magna cm laude in 2012. After more than a decade in corporate finance, I became a financial advisor to have a more direct impact on people's financial lives. That experience continues to shape my approach by combining analytical thinking with personalized guidance. I believe effective planning goes beyond investments. Retirement planning, investments, risk management, estate planning, and tax strategies should work together. That's why I often collaborate with clients' CPAs, attorneys, and other trusted professionals to help keep all aspects of their financial lives aligned. Some common questions I help clients address:

• What should I do with an old 401(k), 403(b), 457 plan, or IRA?
• Am I on track to retire when and how I want?
• How can I prepare for a business sale or transition?
• Is my portfolio aligned with my goals, timeline, and comfort with risk?
• How can I protect my assets and support my legacy goals?
• Are there opportunities or risks I may be overlooking? The most rewarding part of my work is building long-term relationships and helping clients feel confident about their financial future. I currently serve clients in 25 states and enjoy working with individuals, families, and business owners across the country.

On August 18, I officially became a CFP® professional.

Earning the certification is a milestone I'm proud of, but more importantly, it reflects a commitment to providing clients with thoughtful, comprehensive financial guidance.

I'm grateful for the trust my clients place in me and look forward to applying what I've learned to better serve the individuals and families I have the privilege of working with.

The S&P 500 reached new highs as several key market headwinds began to ease. While record levels can make investors hesitant, history suggests that all-time highs have often been followed by continued gains, with long-term returns comparable to, or even better than, investing on a typical trading day.*

The Federal Reserve held rates steady as earnings from four Magnificent 7 companies led to mixed market reactions, suggesting that investors increasingly want evidence that AI spending is translating into durable revenue and earnings growth. While interest rates may remain higher for longer, resilient economic growth, strong corporate earnings and broader participation across sectors continues to support equities.

Brian Therien, Investment Strategist, explains what this means and how this could impact investors in the latest Weekly Market Wrap.
