After a strong first two quarters of 2023, markets stumbled a bit as we entered the first week of the third quarter. Nonetheless, in our view, the resilience in the labor market and services sectors makes the case for a recession or downturn in the near-term unlikely. The key for markets will likely be the direction of inflation, which we believe can continue to moderate further. Learn more in our Weekly Market Wrap.

At Edward Jones, we are dedicated to making others’ lives better and leaving people and places better than we found them. Our Managing Partner Penny Pennington (pictured third from right) discovered many parallels within our firm's culture and the teamwork she witnessed during a once-in-a-lifetime experience aboard the USS Carl Vinson on active duty in the Pacific Ocean. She shared the leadership lessons with our 52,000 associates, financial advisors and branch teams across North America upon return and the great similarities between the mission-focused people of the U.S. Navy and the pride they take in working as a team for the greater good. We can’t help but think this is why so many retired and active duty service men and women find Edward Jones a professional home that is also in line with their desire to serve. We proudly and enthusiastically support those who serve our country and guard our freedoms.
