End of the Road?

by Neil Gilliss, MBA, CFP | Oct 19, 2021 | Financial Planning, Newsletters

The 3rd quarter managed a slim profit despite a pullback of over 5% from the market high on September 2nd. Stocks, as measured by the S&P 500, have returned nearly 15% through the first three quarters of the year. We went 211 trading days without a 5% correction, which is the 13th longest streak on record. Historically, these streaks have been positive, as 11 of the 12 streaks longer than the most recent one continued their positive trends over time. Despite great returns year to date and a trend that should remain positive, we are seeing a wall of worry not experienced since the depths of COVID-19 in 2020.

Canal Capital Named to Inc. 5000

by Noah Greenbaum | Aug 17, 2021 | RIA

Canal Capital Management is pleased to announce that we have been selected to the Inc. 5000 list for 2021, our fourth year in a row. This is an annual ranking that consists of the fastest growing private companies in America. Canal came in ranked at number 4,723, and was one of only 44 Richmond businesses included on the list.

How the 2021 Inc. 5000 Companies Were Selected
Companies on the 2021 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2016 to 2020. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2016. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent–not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies–as of December 31, 2020. (Since then, some on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2016 is $100,000; the minimum for 2020 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons.

Note: Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to two decimal places. In the case of ties, the companies with more revenue were placed higher.

2021 Looking Past the Pandemic

by Neil Gilliss, MBA, CFP | Jan 20, 2021 | Financial Planning, Newsletters

We spent many hours at the end of 2019 trying to figure out what could derail one of the greatest markets in history. Most investors’ biggest concern going into 2020 was the upcoming election and what a potential change in Washington leadership would mean for the markets. Of course, no one predicted a global pandemic causing a global recession. Fortunately, it was the shortest recession and fastest market recovery in history.
