Investment Committee


By nearly any measure, the first half of the year has been extremely challenging for investors, with negative returns across all asset classes. But even as the bumpy ride continues, silver linings are emerging.

In our latest video, JNBA Chairman and CEO Richard S. Brown, Director of Investment Management David Webb, and Senior Advisors and Investment Strategists Michael Bilotta and John Foster discuss what JNBA’s Investment Committee is looking for now that earnings season is here. In this 14-minute conversation, the team covers everything from inflation to the threat of recession to bond returns and potential opportunities for investors to turn lemons into lemonade.
