What experts say about investors and stock market volatility in August 2015
08/21/2015
Vanguard CEO Bill McNabb makes some of the same points that are made in the piece by Ron Lieber of the NYT on August 21, 2015. McNabb says it is best not to look too often at the portfolio, to stay invested for the long term. McNabb says on Vanguard's website, that Vanguard research taking a 10 year period showed a portfolio where investor was chasing returns in the equity markets had a return 2.8% lower than a portfolio where the investor stayed invested for the long term. Short term volatility is to be expected says McNabb. In 2014 4th quarter a similar period of volatility affected global markets followed by a rebound in markets. Staying diversified and investing in a mix of mutual funds and bonds is the best way to manage risk, says McNabb.

After a Tumultuous Year for Investors, the Experts Look Ahead

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
