Rooted Planning Group's 2nd Quarter Economy Thoughts

I cannot believe we have moved into the 2nd quarter of 2021 already. During the month of March, we have been asked, is now a good time to invest, it seems like the market is at a peak? If it is not about the stock prices being high, then it’s a concern over future interest rates causing a slow down in the economy.

The most recent economic news seems to support a continued improvement, as ADP payrolls have gained traction, we are seeing factory activity strengthening and although the value of the dollar is down from its peak in March of 2020, this is generally positive for global growth (read to the end to see this come full circle).
