Blue Chip Partners Quarterly Edge: Q1 2022

In Michigan, the onset of wintery weather brings about a change in wardrobe. Instead of avoiding the outside world entirely, individuals bundle up accordingly. At Blue Chip Partners, we apply a similar approach to managing client allocations.

Market Outlook

As underlying market factors change, we dress portfolios appropriately instead of foregoing participation altogether. Whether it is in anticipation of financial markets’ versions of sunshine and blue skies or seasonal precipitation, we maintain the belief that time in the market is more important than timing the market.

As we digest the state of the investment climate today, we have identified three key themes to watch in the first quarter of 2022 and beyond:

1. At A Crossroads

U.S. markets find themselves at a crossroads as we begin 2022. The staying power of inflationary pressure, shifts in monetary policy at the Federal Reserve and central banks around the world, and the ensuing impact on consumer activity and balance sheets have potential to impact the direction of travel from an economic perspective.

2. Don't Panic!

The dynamics that currently underpin financial markets have led some to question the return potential of assets for the first quarter of 2022 and beyond. Interest rates may rise, albeit modestly, and the margin debt that has contributed to equity market appreciation could be scaled back. Now is not the time to panic, but a more normal level of volatility should be expected.

3. Quality Checklist

A focus on quality serves as the backbone of Blue Chip Partners’ investment philosophy. Our approach is evergreen, but we also view increased scrutiny on allocations as prudent given elevated uncertainty as we enter Q1 2022. Health Care and pockets of Information Technology stand out as areas of interest.
