PHOENIX - ncarol.com -- Trajan Wealth and their chief investment officer Udayan Mitra, CFA have researched the financial market and compiled the results in a blog post. The April Financial Market Recap covers important information from the last month's market performance, and breaks down that info to help inform your investment strategy.

Key points of the review are:

• At the present time, the Federal Reserve Bank is in the process of selling assets from its balance sheet
• It will take seven years to reach an asset level of below $1.0 trillion on the  Fed's balance sheet
• The Federal Reserve Bank's Open Market Committee raised the target Fed  Funds rate by 0.25% at the March 22nd FOMC meeting
• There was a collapse and subsequent government/central bank engineered depositor bailouts of  three banks – two here in the US and one in Europe
• The primary focus of the current administration's monetary policy remains the fight to bring down inflation from over 5% to the long-term target of 2%
• We advocate an elevated level of diversification across asset classes
