How to Stay Invested in a Rough Market
Thanks in part to high inflation and the risk of stagflation, it has been tough to invest in stocks so far this year. Still, most tough markets bring with them the seeds for the next recovery, and chances are that this one will, too.
The challenge, though, is that by the time investors recognize they are firmly in the middle of the next recovery, much of the early and outsize returns may have already been made. Therefore, it's important to be willing and able to stay invested even as the market is crashing. That's easier said than done, but there are four steps you can take to help prepare yourself and your portfolio to enable you to stay invested even in a rough market.
