GovStreet Capital is closely monitoring the Government
Shutdown on an hourly basis. We continue to move forward with business—as the
United States is—cautiously managing our partner investor interests. Our family
of Small Businesses currently is delivering uninterrupted Government services
despite the Shutdown, while investors continue to receive an average of rate of
return of 12.74%.
Political and economic uncertainty, such as this unexpected
“black swan” event, tends to affect market stability. This can be unsettling,
but investors with diversified portfolios should not be alarmed. In fact,
volatile markets serve as an important reminder to continually ensure that your
investment strategy is still on track. GovStreet Capital provides a simple
three-step approach during volatile events:
1. Check. Understand your portfolio’s direct
effects from volatility. When your anxiety is elevated, it's a good time to
check your allocation and investment strategy to ensure that they are still on
track.
2.
Focus. With proper asset allocation and a long-term strategy, your
collective portfolio risk should effectively be lower than any individual
portfolio asset with a short-term goal. GovStreet underwrites companies already vetted by the Government, and may
provide you with that low risk alternative investment to optimally diversify your
portfolio.
3. Diversify. Volatility is also a perfect
time to revisit your portfolio. Take
advantage of the volatility (buy low, sell high) and the end of the year tax
advantages. Mutual funds rather than individual stocks are a great way to
diversify while avoiding the burden of selecting and buying individual stocks. GovStreet
Capital serves as a portfolio builder that offers an alternative investment
funding Small Businesses in the Federal Sector.
