It’s easy to preach about behavioral biases, avoiding emotional decisions, and staying the course when the market is rising. The last few weeks have really put investors and advisors to the test and shown some true colors. Time to practice what we preach!
Here’s what I’ve been reading this morning:
‘I’m Here, To Remind You’ – Josh Brown – The Reformed Broker
- With the market down this morning, Josh shares valuable insight about what will help advisors/investors weather this volatility.
‘Sale Alert!’ – Maureen Wright – The Financial Fashion Planner
- With the stock market essentially “on sale”, Maureen writes about why investors with long time horizons could view this as a time to shop!
‘5 Tips for Trading ETFs’ – Ben Johnson – Morningstar
- After what happened in August 2015, it’s important to understand how ETFs trade. Ben writes about 5 very important things to know on that topic.
‘Cancerversary 2’ – Casey Mullooly – All Things Are One
- Yesterday marked 2 years since Casey’s cancer diagnosis. He writes about that day and what’s changed for him since then. During difficult times in the market, it’s important to remember that there are indeed larger priorities in life and not to take things for granted.
ENJOY!
