Stop Checking Your Portfolio: How to Invest for the Long Term During a Market Crash
If you're a bit too glued to the prices of your stocks or cryptocurrencies on a regular basis, you already know that there's nothing that commands your attention as powerfully as a crash. Still, market crashes are no excuse for impulsive investing. Your future self is counting on you to make rational and calculated decisions with your wealth.
Of course, in the present, it's easy to fumble that responsibility by focusing too much on the short term. And in a crash, it's perfectly understandable to do so. So, for your portfolio to succeed in the long term, it's critical to have a strategy for keeping your eyes on the prize rather than the shiny objects that are more immediate (like a market crash).
