In case you hadn't realised we are officially
in a new bull market
- The S&P 500 is up 20% from its December 2022 closing low.
- Unfortunately, there are many people sitting in cash, “waiting for the market to settle down” and who have therefore missed out on this 20% growth.
- Human behaviour is the number one reason that many investors experience poor returns from their portfolio. Examples include:
- Waiting for the “right opportunity”❌
- Selling during short-term periods of volatility ❌
- All contribute to a sub optimal experience.
- The investment markets are unpredictable, and the only reliable way of capturing the returns available to you are to invest and stay invested.
- Past performance is no guide to future performance and your fund value can go down as well as up.
