Edward Jones - Financial Advisor: Colton Saunders

Edward Jones - Financial Advisor: Colton Saunders I’ve always called northwest Missouri home. Today, my wife and I, along with our two sons, are proud to call St. Joseph home. Joseph Chamber of Commerce.

I grew up in Savannah and graduated magna cm laude from Missouri Western State University with a Bachelor of Science in finance. Giving back to the community that raised me is important to me. From an early age, I’ve volunteered my time to serve others, a commitment that continues today through involvement with the Optimist Club, the Diplomats and the St. My family and I are active members of St.

Francis Catholic Church, where I have served on the Parish Council. Prior to joining Edward Jones, I spent more than a decade owning and operating my own business. That experience gave me firsthand insight into the real-world challenges individuals and business owners face — from managing cash flow to planning for growth and long-term financial security. Becoming a financial advisor was a natural step, driven by a desire to help people make confident, informed decisions with their money. I hold the Series 7 and Series 66 registrations along with insurance licenses, and in 2023, I earned the CFP® certification. This designation reflects a commitment to advanced education, ethical standards and putting clients’ interests first. To earn the CFP® certification, advisors must complete an approved course of study, pass a comprehensive examination, undergo a background check and agree to comply with the CFP® Board’s Code of Ethics and Standards of Conduct. At Edward Jones, I take a personal, collaborative approach. I begin by listening and understanding what matters most to you, then work with you to build a strategy aligned with your goals. When appropriate, I collaborate closely with CPAs and attorneys to help ensure your plan addresses the full picture of your financial life. We were honored to qualify for the Edward Jones Momentum Conference in 2024 and 2025. With fewer than 500 of more than 20,000 financial advisors earning this distinction each year, we’re proud to be recognized among the firm’s top performers. I focus on serving individuals and business owners who value a long-term relationship built on trust, transparency and clear communication. If you’re serious about your financial future and looking for a trusted guide along the way, I’d welcome the opportunity to connect.

After months of expected interest rate cuts, the Federal Reserve is shifting its focus back to managing inflation. This "higher-for-longer" interest rate environment may present compelling opportunities in short-term fixed income, while equities can continue to be supported by strong and broadening earnings growth. Brian Therien, Investment Strategist, explains what this could mean for investors in our Weekly Market Wrap.
