Invest
In America
(and the world, too)!
Slowly,
America is recovering from the September 11 attacks. While
some people are still selling their investments with fear,
we encourage you to do exactly the opposite.
Historically,
markets have recovered quickly from slumps prompted by disasters,
including Pearl Harbor, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the
Gulf War. In fact, times like this had turned out to be
good times to stay in the market, or even further participate
in the market.
Plus, interest rates has fallen to a new low in several
decades. If you have a large portion of your money in saving
accounts or CD's, you are probably getting negative
returns after subtracting inflation and taxes.
As
a standard practice, we have been recommending our clients
to put a portion of their money in global mutual funds.
A typical global fund would invest primarily in markets
in Europe, Japan, Canada and here in the U.S.. The purpose
of doing so is to achieve more diversification. More than
60% of the world's wealth is based outside the U.S.. These
markets are believed to offer opportunities for long-term
growth. Not surprisingly, they are also in countries that
are more politically stable, and are our allies against
terrorism!
So,
be confident in the market. Invest in America, and
in the world. It's one of the best things you can do to
stimulate our economy. And it's exactly what Mr. Greenspan
wants you to do. In the near future, you will very likely
find it to be a very good thing to do for yourself as well!
