A Message from The Summit Retirement and Investment Services

Three Young Meme Stock Investors

Recently, the world has watched with great interest as a few companies have seen surprising rallies in their stock prices. You may have read stories of individual investors gaining massive returns on their investments, thanks to this phenomenon. However, many of these same assets have quickly suffered steep declines following their initial boost.1

During times like these, it can be tempting to pile into an asset that has seen such rapid growth. The excitement of the moment or the fear of missing out can cause even the savviest investor to act when they usually wouldn’t.

The Summit Retirement and Investment Services crafts your investment strategy to help pursue your long-term goals, regardless of what markets do in the short term.
