During an election year, it's not uncommon for investors to think about their financial strategy and wonder if the winning candidate will have any impact on their financial success. And while some people may believe that yes, one party tends to be better for the economy over the other, we're here to ease your mind a bit - truth is, stocks are going to rise and fall regardless of who winds up in office.

An article from MONEY explains that "history says presidential politics have a surprisingly small impact on your portfolio." Thus, it's important to remember that the true key to success when it comes to your finances this year is how you react to the election - are you going to immediately adjust your portfolio depending on the outcome, or are you going to see things through and focus on what lies ahead?

Remember, your investments should be chosen with long-term goals in mind, and while you may feel that you need to make some changes to your portfolio right now, it's important to consider all factors and think about how your immediate actions could impact your future. 

Here at American Investment Planners LLC, we understand that current events, such as the 2016 election, may encourage you to make some quick decisions about your investments and current financial strategy. But, with many years of combined experience between all of our advisors, we know how to approach portfolios under a variety of circumstances to deliver positive results.

If you have questions about your current investments or are concerned about how the election may effect your current financial situation, we encourage you to give us a call at (516) 932-5130 to speak with one of our financial planning professionals directly.
