- Summary: SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES (OCTOBER 9, 2019) (REUTERS VIA SKYPE) (SOUNDBITE) (English) GERBER KAWASAKI WEALTH AND INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT GROUP LEADER, BEN DUNBAR, SAYING: "So, now is not the time to be really aggressive. There are a lot of issues going on globally and in the U.S. The U.S. consumer has been saving the market so far. We've see low unemployment, so there's a lot of good reasons to still be invested. But this is not the time to be aggressive, and then this is not the time to be trading on these headlines. Ultimately, remember the companies that you own and why you own them. Focus on that, rather than if a deal is done today, when tomorrow it's not done, and then the next day it's done again, right?"
