  • Josh Sweeney, CFA will lead CTWM’s Investment Committee, with both Megan and John being active members and decision makers on the committee.
  • Josh’s role is to ensure that decisions about the firm’s target portfolio are weighed in conjunction with the needs of our clients first and foremost.
  • 2023 has been surprisingly positive given the outlook early on and the banking/U.S. debt struggles experienced.
  • Our firm continues to watch key economic indicators, such as inflation, interest rates, unemployment, and equity valuations.
  • Given the expectations of interest rates coming into this year and moving forward, if you liked bonds in Q1, you will love them after Q2.
  • CTWM’s portfolio continues to focus on the long-term, with positions that hold companies with quality earnings.
