Weekly Edge

At the end of the trading week, the team at NewEdge Wealth publishes its commentary on the week that was, as well as some insights into what it means for clients looking ahead.

The Great Divide

The Great Divide is a great way to describe some of the sharp divergences and departures we have seen over the last three months. Some of these great divides are encouragingly positive, while others are distinctly negative.

The Show Must Go On

Our last Weekly Edge addressed the potential that we could see improving economic data in the wake of the U.S. election, reflected by more optimistic consumer and business survey responses. Since then, we’ve seen that effect materialize in some places (consumer expectations) but not others (services business sentiment).

Hard and Soft

While markets have been shaky over the past two weeks, the positive trends remain broadly similar to those in the final two months of 2016. Stocks could muster another lurch higher if business sentiment begins to reflect a more bullish outlook for 2025, perhaps due to a combination of lower expected tax rates or less stringent regulation.

Wealth Strategy

A successful wealth strategy process benefits from a team of advisors, collectively focused on the goals specific to your family. Below are some of the insights and strategies the team at NewEdge has published on what it means to have a wealth strategy, rather than a simple financial plan.
