“Thanksgiving is a joyous invitation to shower the world with love and gratitude.” – Amy Leigh Mercree

We take a break from our regular blog to enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with our friends & family. We will resume our original blog commentary next week.

Please enjoy Pure Portfolios’ most read blogs in 2022.

1. How to Solve the Inflation Problem (February 17, 2022)

“We believe the overarching cause of inflation is simple, yet it’s hardly talked about. Americans are buying more stuff than ever.”

2. What Are the Odds of a U.S. Recession? (March 10, 2022)

“Let’s say we are headed for a recession. Rather than trying to predict when it starts, ends, and what happens to stock prices, we can concede that everyone will feel some pain. The question becomes, how can we mitigate the damage?”

3. Mitigating Damage without Playing the Market Oracle (March 17, 2022)

“Throw your crystal ball in the dumpster and quit playing market oracle. Turn the lens inward and focus on cleaning up the things you can control. Mitigating damage beats trying to predict what happens next.”

4. Silver Linings in a Dismal Year (October 20, 2022)

“For those living in the dungeon of despair, it’s okay to be bearish. It’s not okay to stay bearish. Be able to change your mind when the facts change. There is no “all-clear” signal that indicates a market bottom. Stock prices often turn when it feels the worst or things get slightly less bad.”

5. The Biggest Risk to Retirees Revisited (August 4, 2022)

“The last decade was blissful by most investor standards. Many retirees were able to comfortably live off their investment portfolios and see their account balances grow. Not too shabby. 2022 has been the opposite.”

On behalf of Pure Portfolios, we wish our clients, readers, and partners a wonderful holiday season!
