[SOLD OUT] Asset Allocation Panel Luncheon

The US and the global consumer sectors of the economy and stock markets continue to be strong.  However, the current US market expansion has been underway since 2009 with the manufacturing and business investment sectors slowing which can quickly cause the current low level of volatility and a  number of other threats both known and unknown to emerge including the tense international situations and trade negotiations.
