Owning stocks that are essential to the US economy and the American way of life has never been more important. Surrounded by artificial intelligence and submerged in this new, complex, and sophisticated investment world, revisiting and embracing a proven investment theme is critical. Essential investing has been around for centuries and has certainly built enormous wealth along the way. Vanderbilt, JP Morgan, Rockefeller, to name a few. In this presentation, my goal is to help you rethink the “why” and the “how” in your investing, and how to incorporate an essential investing theme to create better wealth outcomes.
