As we begin the second decade of the 21st century, we are relieved that 2009 helped move us along the road to recovery and are grateful for the partial rebound of the markets, following the recession and market collapse of the last couple of years. Weary investors are left pondering what just happened, and what is yet to come. The stock market still has a long way to go, but we are optimistic that it has turned the corner.
As we wade through a beleaguered but resilient financial landscape, we here at Edgemoor Investment Advisors wanted to establish a more efficient way to communicate with our clients and others. Thus, we’d like to formally introduce the Edgemoor Blog, a forum where we can connect on the pressing investing and finance issues of the day, and where readers can come to find a professional advisory voice.
In part, this is the product of the firm’s 10th anniversary, which we recently celebrated. Having served investors, predominately in the metro DC and Charlotte, NC areas but also across the country, for a decade now, we find that many of the people we work with are thirsty for insight and industry commentary beyond what they find during their daily routines.
Our clients – ranging from individuals, retirement plans, and trusts to non-profit organizations and foundations – want timely, genuine, back-and-forth engagement on the pertinent issues of the day. We plan to deliver our expert insight through the blog to meet those expectations.
Edgemoor Investment Advisors specializes in long-term capital appreciation, preservation of capital, and income through disciplined management of value-oriented equity and income-generating portfolios. This blog will reflect that specialty as we delve into the latest market trends, headlines, and dealings on Capitol Hill. Our aim is to create a conversation hub where we can share our knowledge and hear feedback from our readers, so please feel free to post a comment and tell us what you’d like to discuss.
We’re confident that this blog is an informative and efficient way for our clients and readers to stay up-to-speed on industry trends and news. We’ve made it our business for the past ten years to be expert stewards of our clients’ respective financial futures. We’ll employ that same expertise, efficiency, and insight in this blog and remain good stewards of your time online.
Thanks for stopping by, and be sure to visit again as we explore what today’s fluctuating financial headlines mean for America’s investors.
