Introducing Two New Portfolios For Your Review, Debating the Benefits of the Dollar's Strength, and an Examination of Stock Splits

As investing options become more and more diverse, we seek opportunities to streamline the investing process for our clients. With this in mind, our Investment Policy Committee has worked hard to put together two portfolios that we believe could benefit your overall financial plan. The first is a bond portfolio and the second is a Global All Cap ESG.

After you've reviewed those, we debate the benefits of a strong dollar vs. a weak dollar, take a look at what is now the second longest economic expansion in U.S. history, and share a guest post written by Newfound Research. Finally, Doug's Quiz Corner reviews how stock splits, and reverse stock splits, can impact your portfolio.
