Time in the Market Myth

Time in the Market Myth

VIDEO: Time in the Market Myth  

Have you ever been told something like this: “Don’t worry, there is always volatility in the market, but as you can see, even bear markets are mild and on average the market returns 8% a year over the long-term.” Whether the average is 8% or 10% is irrelevant.

Join us to find out where the real risk lies in the most commonly used investment model and current market conditions.
