Phil Blancato gives a special update on the market.

Despite ongoing volatility and economic unevenness, investors are encouraged to stay invested, as strong corporate earnings, stable economic growth, a resilient labor market, and continued AI investment provide a positive foundation for markets in the second half of the year.

Despite geopolitical uncertainty in early 2026, strong earnings, positive global growth, and intact long-term inflation and rate trends support a constructive market outlook. Diversified portfolios have outperformed, reinforcing the value of staying invested amid volatility.
