Short-term volatility is to be expected, and doesn’t mean that your portfolio isn’t working. (video)


Inevitably downward market volatility causes stress, anxiety and in some cases panic. My message today for investors is not to lose sight of your long-term goals and time horizon. Short-term volatility is to be expected, and doesn’t mean that your portfolio isn’t working. While it goes against all of our human instincts, this is the time to remain disciplined and rebalance. For those of you feeling distressed, confused, or anxious talk to your coach and get your questions answered. Your long-term peace of mind is on the line.
