ar Editor,

Why hasn’t the threat of coyotes on Isle of Palms been reportedre? Are we more afraid of the impact to tourism dollars?Our beloved cat of ten years was killed by a coyote in the earlyrning hours of New Year's Eve, 2015 and his remains found near

aterway and Shady Lane. Someone had reported to IOP Animalntrol at 5:45 a.m. of seeing a coyote carrying the cat down

aterway. A neighbor of mine on Wills Way reported seeing a coyoteat night on 30th Ave between Wills Way and Allie Court. I haveo heard a pack of several coyotes have recently been observed on

e golf course near 32nd Ave and frequent the vacant wooded lotcorner of Shady Lane, and that two pet dogs have recently beenled by coyotes in Wild Dunes. Also a pet dog killed while under theident’s house in Forest Trail.

Why isn’t the news doing more to report these sightings and killingsd warn residents of the coyote threat? Why isn’t the City of Isle

Palms taking an active role to address the problem like Sullivan'sand instead of merely posting on their website how to “coexist”h these nuisance, non-native invasive predators, which have no

edator themselves if we do not do something to control them. Theyotes have decimated the deer and raccoon population on IOP andw they are brazenly preying on our pets in neighborhoods.

FINANCIAL FOCUS

We’re just a few weeks

away from the rstcaucuses and primaries,

presidential election seasonn full swing. As a voter,may be keenly interested

the election process. Butan investor, should you becerned?you take a look back, you

ht be somewhat encouragedthe prospects of the

ncial markets this year. Inlast 12 presidential election

rs, the Dow Jones Industrialrage has been up nine times

down just three. So, electionrs must be good for thencial markets, right?ot necessarily. In every year,markets are inuenced by aety of factors: interest rates,ation, corporate prots,political events, economicwth, even the weather. Andsafe to say that 2016 will bedifferent. At this early stagehe year, one could say thate of these factors, such astinued low interest rates andeasonably strong economy,ht bode well for investors.

there’s a lot of 2016 ahead ofand it’s notoriously difcultanybody, even so-called

experts, to accurately predict

the market’s performance over arelatively short time, such as a year.

Still, the market’s historyof pretty good results inpresidential election years maynot be entirely random. For one

thing, the White House is neverthe only ofce being contested;elections are also held forevery congressional districtand many seats in the Senate.Consequently, during theseelection years, campaigningoften takes precedence overlegislating. This legislativeinactivity tends to be welcomedby the nancial markets, whichgenerally dislike surprises, big

changes and new directions.However, you can’t really count

on past trends to provide a certain

roadmap for the year ahead, in

terms of the performance of thenancial markets. As mentionedabove, many factors inuencethis performance, and at thisearly stage in the year, we justcan’t predict which of thesefactors will take precedence.

So, instead ofworrying aboutthings you can’tcontrol, focus onthose that you can.For starters, review your investmentmix. Does it still

properly reect yourgoals, risk toleranceand time horizon?Over time, even if

you haven’t made many changesto your portfolio, it can become“unbalanced.” For example,if you own some stocks thathave increased greatly in valueover the years, these stocksmay now be taking up a largerpercentage of your holdingsthan you had intended, bringingwith them a higher degree of

risk. Consequently, you might

want to consider selling off someof these stocks and using theproceeds to ll in other gaps in your portfolio.

On the other hand, if youthink your mix of investmentsis not providing you with thereturns you need to help makeprogress toward your long-term objectives, you may needto add some vehicles that canprovide you with more growthpotential. After all, it’s 2016now, so whatever your age, you are another year closer to

retirement.Will this year look like pastpresidential election years, asfar as good returns from thestock market? No one can say forsure. But if you “vote” for smartinvestment moves, you won’t besorry.
