11% swing in American markets

This is Jeff Wareham, ScotiaMcLeod Wealth Advisor, with some thoughts for investors outgrowing their mutual funds.

This market has reached new heights when it comes to volatility and uncertainty. North American markets swung by up to 11 percent during the day yesterday. It is pretty tough to make long term decisions in a market experiencing such short term uncertainty. Believe it or not, there were very encouraging signs in the market’s performance of Wednesday and Thursday. Tune in tomorrow at 8:30, as I discuss another challenging week, and look at planning for the long term in difficult market conditions.

Now is the perfect time to ask “have you outgrown your mutual funds?”
