Amidst these unprecedented times, a burning question arises: Should you maintain a diversified portfolio? 

In this episode, Nicole Romito and Bob Westrick, Partner at Private Vista, provide a mid-year market update for 2023. Together they tackle some of the pressing inquiries that have flooded their clients minds. From whether America is already in a recession or heading into one, if it will be different this time around, and whether or not diversification still works during unprecedented times.

Nicole and Bob discuss: 

• Private Vista’s guidance amidst these extraordinary times and the unique challenges they present
  
• What the difference is between the economy and the markets, and why they don’t always move in the same direction
  
• The Federal Reserve’s potential measures to disrupt the current inflationary cycle
  
• What type of recession is expected, and to what severity
  
• Why it’s better to invest for longer term goals rather than short-term goals
  
• And more
