    Election cycles can spur erratic investor behavior and market volatility, impacting your portfolio. Adero’s Chief Investment Officer Greg Warner, MBA, CFP® shared his thoughts with U.S. News & World Report on some ways clients can protect their retirement savings throughout the 2024 election cycle. “Stock markets have historically rewarded investors with equivalent long-term returns irrespective of which party was in the White House,” he said. “While there can always be short-term volatility, the long-term economic dynamics of consumer spending–a primary driver of economic growth–help underpin the stock market.” For tips on stabilizing your retirement portfolio in times of volatility, read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/gFtNRYqs #Retirement #FinancialPlanning #Election -- The material provided is for informational and educational purposes only.

    While it's tempting to be swayed or overwhelmed by the latest headlines and market swings, do downturns really lead to down years? Let's look at the past 20 Years of U.S. Market Returns (Russell 3000) 📈 As we analyze the past two decades of market dynamics, it's clear that volatility is an inherent part of investing. In fact, every single year we experience an intra-year decline of some magnitude. On average, these intra-year declines in the US are around -15%.

Out of the past 20 years, 17 have closed with positive gains. - Average Growth: Markets not only tend to recover from these negative cycles but tend to have favorable calendar year performance averaging an 11% increase annually. This data highlights a crucial lesson for investors: intra-year declines are a normal part of the market cycle and staying invested is key. #Investing #MarketTrends #FinancialMarkets #Russell3000 -- Dimensional Fund Advisors.
