Financial Planning

Market outlook for Q4 2025: Fed rate cuts and strong earnings fuel gains, but elevated valuations, rising deficits, and speculative bubbles in gold and AI warrant caution. Learn what's ahead for investors.

Some financial pundits suggest that all you need for financial success is a “set it and forget it” approach with passive index fund investing. While long-term investing is indeed advantageous, is that truly all you need to do? What about tax-saving strategies, generating retirement income, or establishing a solid estate plan? And how should you respond to major life changes or significant market volatility? The simple fact is that managing wealth is complex, especially for high-net-worth individuals. From investment choices to tax planning and business succession, navigating these areas without professional guidance can lead to costly oversights. Partnering with a skilled fiduciary advisor can simplify the process, helping you focus on long-term success while steering clear of potential pitfalls.

Congratulations! Your student has been accepted to college. Now, the crucial question is: How do you pay for it? This is an exciting yet challenging time for students and parents across Massachusetts. As graduating seniors eagerly anticipate their next chapter, families face the logistical, emotional, and, most importantly, financial adjustments that come with higher education. Effective planning is key to navigating these transitions successfully.

Every New Year’s, millions of people prepare resolutions in the hopes of making their lives a little better. However, when it comes to financial resolutions, most are abandoned by February due to a lack of planning or follow-through.  Setting high goals at the beginning of the year, like “save more money” or “pay off debt,” is a great starting point toward financial stability and growth. These require, however, a well-defined roadmap to success — a guide that provides steps and directions through which these goals can be converted into reality. This is the point where your financial goals call for an effective financial plan. Professional management is crucial in mapping a way to accomplish financial goals. Breakwater Capital Group offers experienced guidance in this process.
