Volatility Life Vest - EdgePoint
Volatility is an ugly word to most investors. It’s synonymous with risk, and reacting emotionally to the uncertainty can be disastrous to a portfolio. - Frank Mullen, CIO, EdgePoint
Recent market fluctuations have been driven by a mix of global trade policy shifts and tariff announcements in the United States. These developments have created uncertainty for investors, sparking ongoing volatility in equity markets. As policymakers adjust trade agreements and introduce new tariffs, markets can experience frequent fluctuations, making it difficult for investors to predict short-term movements.
Amidst these market swings, it's crucial for investors to maintain focus on their broader strategy. Short-term volatility should not derail long-term goals.
