$5 at the door for everyone. No advanced reservations.

Paging through any of the financial press offerings it seems there is always commentary on the current long-running bull market, the essence of which asks the question—are we overdue for a change? The optimists agree that, yes, the bull market is “long in the tooth,” but fundamentals are still strong. Realists, bears and pessimists also agree, yes, and it is only a matter of time before a triggering event sparks a reversal. Who to believe? What is the serious investor to do? Can a robust portfolio be assembled so that regardless of what transpires the serious investor will be well off, relatively speaking? What might that portfolio look like?

Attend This Meeting and Learn

• Whether there is a preponderance of evidence that suggests a particular scenario (say, a decline) over another (say, the bull runs on)
• If investors can assemble a robust portfolio that fortifies them against a major decline
• Can this same robust portfolio continue participation in the bull run should that scenario prevail?
