I'm excited to share the summer issue of On Wealth, our new quarterly newsletter for clients and friends of The Wealth Advisory Group.

Each issue, On Wealth brings you a mix of market perspective, planning ideas, and a little seasonal inspiration — all in one place. Here's what's inside this summer's edition:

Market Update — A mid-year look back at how stocks have performed in 2026, plus what we're watching for the second half of the year (inflation, the Fed's next move, and a few other things worth keeping an eye on).

Travel & Leisure — Two of our favorite Maine summer getaways: a lakeside retreat on Sebago Lake and coastal charm along the Kennebunkport coast.

Sports Tip — Why this is the summer to try sailing, with a few easy ways to get out on the water.

Tax Tip — Why mid-year is actually the best time to think about a Roth conversion, and how to know if it makes sense for you.

Summer Recipe — A grilled striped bass recipe with lemon-herb butter that's perfect for a deck dinner or entertaining guests.

Enjoy the rest of your summer!
