Hello everyone. We
had a pretty scary drop in the stock market today. For most long term investors, today alone wiped away over 2% of their
net worth.
Most investors are asking me … if it is time to protect their nest egg?
There’s an old saying in the stock market, “Pigs get fat,
Hogs get slaughtered”. This year the US
market has had a phenomenal run, but many are now wondering if it is time to
protect your nest egg and move to a cash (safe) position. As many of you have experienced in 2000 and
2008, “Buy and Hold” many times becomes “Buy and HOPE”.
Our analysis is certainly showing that caution is
warranted. It looks like we have a much larger drop coming over the next few
months.
As many of you know, we invest differently than most
financial advisors do, our strategy is a protective one, where we move to the
safety of cash, completely out of the market when things get scary. Our number one rule is to ALWAYS PROTECT OUR CLIENT INVESTMENTS FROM DECLINE.
In fact, none of our clients are invested in the market at
the moment … we moved all of the accounts out of the market (100% in cash) last
week as a result of the weakness we were/are seeing.
The question that should be on your mind right now is … should you take action and “get out while
you can”? Or is the risk worth sitting
and hoping that we don’t have another potential 2008 re-hash where most investors lost over 40% of their
net worth in the year.
