Worried About a Recession? 1 Dangerous Investing Mistake to Avoid
The stock market has been shaky all year, and many investors are unnerved by all the volatility. There's also a chance that a recession could be on the horizon, which can make it even more intimidating to invest right now.

If you're concerned about how a potential recession may affect your investments, though, you're not alone. Although nobody knows for certain what will happen with the economy or the stock market, there's one risky move to avoid if at all possible.
