Event Recap: Autism Speaks Walk – North Shore Walk 2017

  • May 10, 2017

Members of Strategic Wealth Partners (SWP), a Deerfield-based wealth management firm, joined nearly 1,000 others at New Trier’s Northfield campus on Sunday April 30th. SWP was honored to support the mission of Autism Speaks and serve as a corporate sponsor on Team Tyler, formed in honor of Tyler Savitz.

“It is always humbling to be a part of awareness and fundraising efforts like Autism Speaks. It’s a powerful reminder of everyday things that are taken for granted,” said Tom Buhrmann, a wealth advisor at SWP. “I have family and friends affected by this condition – it is wonderful to see so many people come out to support Autism Speaks.”

500,000 children with Autism will similarly become adults in the next 10 years and will lose the school and public support that was available during childhood. Those individuals will need housing, jobs and community support, which is currently incapable of meeting the coming demand for services. Autism Speaks is working to increase awareness, advocate for the rights of these individuals and provide research and support to change the future for all those living with Autism.

Making It Through Volatile Markets
Yesterday’s news about new worldwide tariffs and the resulting impact on financial markets is going to scare a lot of people. Whether you are someone who looks at your portfolio every day, checks periodically, or hardly ever looks at all, it would not be unusual to have some sort of impulse to take action with your portfolio. The most drastic would be to “go to cash,” presumably re-entering the market “when things get better.” The issue is always that it will never feel like a good time to get back in. Think back to March 23, 2020…everyone was locked down in their homes, and the impact of COVID had only just begun. Yet despite the fact that people were still wearing masks and maintaining other COVID-related precautions a year + later, that day in March 2020 turned out to be a generational buying opportunity for stocks.

A Primer on Private Equity
On the surface, it’s logical that owning a diversified basket of public stocks (individual companies and/or indexes) is reflective of the broader economy, but the data doesn’t support it. In 1996, roughly 8,000 companies were listed in the U.S. stock market. Today, that number is fewer than 4,000.
