MARKET

UPDATE

2022

Sometimes the most difficult thing to do in investing is to look past the present and plan for the future. That is especially true given today’s tumultuous investment environment.

Investment conclusions: A new phase and new opportunities for long-term investors. The current investment environment is shrouded in unknowns as the world struggles to contain elevated inflationary pressures, the aftershocks of the pandemic and the military conflict in the heart of Europe. Uncertainty is the staple of our times. Yet, widening the lens and taking the long view, market returns are never linear and prone to periodic bouts of volatility. That’s a key lesson of history.

Another key lesson of history is that over the past century, bouts of instability and market sell offs have been followed by multi decades of rising returns as the economy resets and regenerates a new cycle of growth in corporate earnings. As we look ahead, we believe we are at the cusp of a new cycle of upside market returns, backstopped by the accelerating pace of digitalization, the primacy of healthcare, increased automation and the global push for a greener future. Think of these factors as powerful structural tailwinds for future long term earnings growth.

Despite the tall list of short-term unknowns, we at Iconic Homes believe the future is bullish. Develop a plan and invest now for the future.
