Happy Labor Day! 🇺🇸
Today is about recognizing the hard work that happens every day and the people behind it.
Thank you for all that you do. We hope you get the chance to slow down, enjoy the day, and spend some well-deserved time with the people you love!
AI is no longer just a tech story. It’s becoming an economic story.
What began with hyperscalers and companies like Nvidia is now spreading across the economy.
Chipmakers are supplying it.
Financial companies are funding it.
Industrials are building the infrastructure behind it.
Brent Schutte, Chief Investment Officer at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management Company, reminds us that the AI boom is no longer happening in one corner of the market.
It’s helping shape the entire economy.

We had the privilege of welcoming John Roberts, Executive Vice President and Chief Field Officer; Kevin Konopa, Vice President of Advisor Solutions; and Stephanie Bromley, Vice President of Field Talent, to our office for a day at LWP!
We’re grateful for the time together, share what we’re building, learn from John and his team, and talk about what’s ahead.

What’s winning right now isn’t always what wins long term.
AI is booming. Earnings are strong. And as markets become more concentrated, it can be tempting to chase what’s leading.
But is that really the strategy?
Paul Ludacka and Jeo Zelaya hear from Brent Schutte, Chief Investment Officer at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management Company, on why every market cycle is unique but not different.
The AI boom may be grabbing headlines, but diversification and long term discipline still matter.

At Ludacka Wealth Partners, our goal is to build a relationship and strategy that continues to serve you and your family for years to come.
So 20 or 30 years from now, you can look back with confidence in the decisions you made and gratitude for the life they helped you build.
We’re not just planning for what’s next.
We’re planning for what lasts.
A standard only matters if the team is willing to own it.
Great teams know what’s expected.
Leadership demonstrates it.
Teammates reinforce it.
That message hits close to home at LWP.
We believe in the gift of high expectations, that iron sharpens iron, and that we are better together.
Holding each other to a higher standard isn’t just about individual performance. It’s about making the entire team better.

A good investment can still produce a bad outcome.
Why? Behavior.
Easy to trade can also mean easy to mistime.
When volatility hits, buying high, selling low and trading too often can create a major gap between an investment’s return and the return you actually receive.
Choosing a good investment is only part of the equation.
Staying disciplined is how you give it time to work.

Are 5% yields really uncharted territory?
Not even close.
While we haven’t seen them since 2007, yields stayed above that psychological threshold from 1967 to 1998.
For Millennials and Gen Z, 5% may feel new. History says otherwise.
What does that mean for investors? 🤔
Higher yields and a growing economy can coexist.
Today’s number may feel alarming, but it doesn’t tell the whole story.

Do you think committed means invested?
In private markets, it doesn’t.
Bob Long breaks down what happens after capital is committed, how it gets put to work over time, and why the timeline may look very different from what investors are used to.
Private markets play by a different set of rules.
Understanding them is the first step.
