Financial Advisory Services
 
For those willing to accept modest volatility but 
  with downside protection of their principal


One thing we learned in 1999-2000 was it took time to realize "all is not well".  By the time portfolios dropped 30% - 40%, it was too late.  Prepare your retirement, savings and portfolio now!  What we knew was inevitable is now reality.  Those who lost 30% - 40% in 2000 have never recovered.  Don’t be one who hasn’t taken steps to be defensive.

Professional Money Management

As an Investment Advisor Representative, Chuck can design an income and/or growth portfolio that protects against major market declines.  Noting that a loss of 20% in any portfolio requires a 25% gain just to get back to even;  a 30% loss requires a 43% gain, 40% loss requires a 67% gain, etc.  See the chart below.  The red bars below zero show market decline.  The blue bars above zero show the gains you would have to achieve just to get back to even, sometimes taking years to recover.  A 30% loss takes approximately four years to recover, a 40% loss takes about six years to recover assuming a 10% long term appreciation in the market and assuming no further market losses occur during that recovery period.

That is why downside protection is very important.  It minimizes losses and thereby enhances total returns.  For those interested in professional money management with some downside protection for your portfolio or retirement plan, call Chuck now.
