Confluence Financial Partners is building a stronger firm for you and your family. We now have twenty associates at two offices with expansion plans in 2017. As we prepare for another year end, there are a few updates we would like to share with you.
Market update- Despite less than stellar corporate earnings, the S & P 500 has posted a positive return so far this year and its current price-to-earnings ratio is slightly higher than its longterm average. What ' s going on? Well, we cannot explain every turn, but it is helpful to remember that the market looks forward. It appears that the market is anticipating an earnings turnaround-and earnings are the lifeblood of the stock market. The media will focus on Donald Trump being elected as our country’ s 45 th President. We ' ll keep our eye on earnings.
Third office opening in 2017- Along with our Pittsburgh and Southpointe locations, we are delighted to share that we will be opening a third office in the North Hills of Pittsburgh in February, 2017. This North Hills office will round out the three locations in the Pittsburgh area to be as convenient and available to you as possible. We look forward to meeting with you at any of these offices or elsewhere in 2017.
We want you to get the most out of your time, talents and treasure. It is our passion and commitment to serve you and your family and we would consider it a pleasure and honor to help you find clarity around your major financial decisions. If you need anything, please contact us at 412-391-0377 Pittsburgh or 724-271-8801 Southpointe. You can also find us at www. ConfluenceFP. com or on Linkedln, Facebook, or Twitter.
Wishing you all the best in health and happiness!
