FROM VANESSA: A new board of directors in The Woodlands has set economic development as a priority this year, and members will consider strategies to attract more revenue-generating businesses as part of that. Our cover story this month takes a closer look at a proposal for development at The Woodlands Mall as well as what other future economic initiatives could look like. Vanessa Holt, SENIOR EDITOR CORRECTION: Vol. 12, Issue 5 A quote from state Rep. Steve Toth on Page 28 regarding the state of streets in the Tamina community was disputed by Tamina residents as inaccurate.

I wrote a piece for our clients called “Waiting for Godot” where I compared our waiting for the recession that has been predicted for a year to the famous Samuel Beckett play (if you’d like a copy you can call us or just go to our website). The narrative goes that the Fed’s inflation fighting monetary policy will certainly lead to an economic slowdown at least and an economic catastrophe at worst. So, while we wait for the coming recession we are keeping a close eye on corporate earnings, which while also predicted to plummet, have stubbornly remained steady. Be careful of market narratives put forward by folks with an agenda. No one knows with any certainty what the future holds and that’s why we build portfolios to withstand uncertainty. Let us help.
