Taking Stock

As the economy has continued to inch along at a slow rate over the last few years, the stock market has raced forward.  According to economist Robert Shiller, “stocks have been more expensive only three times over the past century than they are today.  Those other three periods are not exactly reassuring, either: the 1920s, the late 1990s and in the prelude to the 2007 financial crisis.”

Shiller’s words are from a recent New York Times article titled “Time to Worry About Stock Market Bubbles.”  We think the title says it all.  For the full article, go here.  And if you’d like to know how this relates to your portfolio, please call or email us.  Now would be a very good time to review asset allocation.
