Don’t Fight the Fed
Provided by MidAmerica Financial Resources
You may have heard the old Wall Street saying, “Don’t fight the Fed.”
It suggests that investors should align their strategy with the Federal Reserve’s outlook rather than try to outsmart the world’s most powerful banker.

When creating a portfolio, our professionals consider a wide range of factors, including the Fed’s outlook. The Fed may not always be correct, but we’ve found that understanding its overall strategy can only help when managing money.
