Cyprus, while problematic, is one of many mini crises we shall see over the next year.  European leaders have not truly addressed their problems and it is only a matter of time before another one of these issues will come to the forefront.  Here in the U.S. , the economy is showing signs of slight improvement, but from our perspective, the equity markets are technically ahead of themselves and a pull back should happen at some point.  Whether it is triggered by a crisis in Europe or the Middle East it is inevitable that something will be the catalyst to take markets lower over the next 6 months.   [![New call-to-action](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/6431732/8084df1e-4fae-435d-9084-3e241986d324.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/6431732/8084df1e-4fae-435d-9084-3e241986d324) ### Posts by Tag - [401k (28)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/401k) - [Business (22)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/business) - [Retirement (15)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/retirement) - [Retirement Plans (12)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/retirement-plans) - [Covid-19 (10)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/covid-19) - [Online financial tool (3)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/online-financial-tool) - [Technology (3)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/technology) - [financial advisor (3)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/financial-advisor) - [Insider (2)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/insider) - [ERISA (1)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/erisa) - [Market Outlook (1)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/market-outlook) - [News Update (1)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/news-update) - [Nonprofits (1)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/nonprofits) - [Target Date Funds (1)](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/tag/target-date-funds) [See all](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/2013/03/25/crisis-averted-for-now#) ## OUR CONTACTS **Address** 1 Landmark Square  Stamford, CT 06901 (Suite 426) **Telephone ** [(203) 210-7814](tel:203-210-7814) **Fax** [(203) 403-9481](tel:203-210-7814) **Email ** [info@granitegroupadvisors.com](mailto:mrosenthal@granitegroupadvisors.com) ## OUR COMMUNICATIONS Join Our Mailing List to See Our Blog Updates [RETIREMENT LOGIN](https://www.ggaretirement.com/client-login) [**](https://blog.ggaretirement.com/2013/03/25/crisis-averted-for-now#) © 2026 by Granite Group Advisors.
