Market Results Across the Generations: Find Yours!
The celebration of the Memorial Day holiday is quickly approaching. Typically, we eagerly anticipate this three-day weekend that heralds the beginning of the summer season. This year is different. However, some traces of good news are beginning to surface that suggest a pretty good summer may be on the horizon after all. Specifically, it is now being suggested that socializing outside may be an effective strategy as we take initial steps to recover from the current crises.

Market Results Across the Generations: Find Yours!
As some of the day-to-day questions such as those in the article cited above are resolved over the coming weeks, we believe that investors will turn their attention more fully to their portfolios, particularly their retirement portfolios. Therefore, stay tuned following the holiday weekend as we provide more in-depth coverage of the relationship between the equity market performance illustrated on the chart above¹ and your retirement planning—pre-retirement, and for those already enjoying their retirement years.
Small Business Owners have questions, too
Before concluding we would like to mention the following, which may answer vital questions for small business owners. Those who received a PPP loan will be relieved to know of the safe harbor that was published by the SBA² (Small Business Administration): “Any borrower that, together with its affiliates, received PPP loans with an original principal amount of less than $2 million will be deemed to have made the required certification concerning the necessity of the loan request in good faith.” Please contact us if you have any questions about this timely clarification.
We trust that you continue to take every precaution to protect your personal wellness and safety during this challenging time.
