7:45-9:30 AM | Monthly Morning Networking Meeting - Oxford Learning Center, 831 Rte. 10 East, Pine Plaza, Whippany Speaker: Anthony Lee, The Cardinal Hill Group Topic: How Confident Are You With Your Financial Game Plan? “Managing Market Risk and Volatility In Uncertain Times”
Volatility over the last two years proves that we can no longer rely on just diversification to manage the effect it has on our investment portfolio. This leads us to question what changes should be made to help protect our investments while navigating these uncertain times. Certainly diversification is a necessary beginning; however, it’s only the first step. Educate yourself to become a more informed investor in any market. Anthony is the founder and managing partner of The Cardinal Hill Group, Inc. Established in 2000, The Cardinal Hill Group was a result of Anthony’s 25 years of comprehensive financial experience. Prior to establishing the firm, Anthony was a senior advisor with Oppenheimer & Co. and Paine Webber Inc. |
