          SUCCESSFUL RETIREMENT

Security. Purpose. Legacy

August 1, 2020
Hello Everyone,

I hope you're keeping safe and enjoying the summer. This month, our focus is on Evidence Based Investing or EBI, which has principles based on what market data tell us. The 1st article below reveals how an EBI investor deals with market volatility. The 2nd article looks at the way in which many investors stay objective during times of market crises.

In our Healthy Aging Strategies section, we have an article which examines how food types can affect your risk of developing dementia.

 

                                     LIVING IN FAITH

                      my personal reflections since the sudden passing of my son

I had a good friend in school named Brian, who died from being hit by a golf ball when we were in grade 10. Forty years later, I wrote a letter to his parents with a poem that touched me when my son Chris passed away. Please click here to read the letter.

Stay safe,
Chad
      
 
Evidence Based Investing – globally diversified, balanced portfolio structured to reduce expenses, turnover, and minimize tax, but should grow with the market. We partner with Dimensional Fund Advisors for this component.

Rising Income Investments – blue chip securities that provide a robust, consistently rising dividend to counteract inflation. Potential candidates are Canadian financials, telecoms and utilities.

Good Night’s Sleep – fixed income holdings which are uncorrelated to equities and have low volatility to provide portfolio stability. This component can provide a steady, dependable income during prolonged bear markets.

Relative Strength – a tactical asset allocation portfolio which uses a rules-based approach to objectively assess opportunities and threats in the market. We partner with Bank of Montreal’s Global Asset Management for this component.
EVIDENCE BASED INVESTING

EVIDENCE BASED INVESTING

EBI is a disciplined approach to managing investments and avoiding critical investing mistakes. This requires  staying objective during periods of crisis. Click here for an Advisors Edge article that reveals how an advisor can help and the added value they bring to your portfolio.
