Recent market volatility has been influenced in part by ongoing tensions with Iran and is spreading across the Middle East. This has contributed to rising oil prices, renewed inflation concerns and increased geopolitical uncertainty.

While daily headlines can feel urgent and unsettling, successful investing requires perspective, discipline, and a clearly defined strategy.

In this recent Webcast, Jim Holtzman and Bill Knight discuss how current events are evaluated through the lens of our disciplined, long-term investment approach.

The topics covered include:

  1. What recent geopolitical developments mean for oil prices and broader markets
  2. Putting recent market movements in perspective
  3. What rising inflation, housing trends, and interest rates may signal going forward
  4. How we systematically rebalance portfolios on an ongoing basis
  5. Why maintaining focus on a long-term financial plan remains important
