Moneta Moment – How to React When the Market Declines

David Wickenhauser  | Investments Strategist

As the S&P 500 inches closer to bear market territory, our Investments Strategist David Wickenhauser takes this Moneta Moment to discuss how investors can keep their emotions in check when reacting to volatility in public equities.

Anxiety or regret can lead to impulsive reactions, creating long term consequences that negatively impact financial goals. To maintain peace of mind when the market declines, investors should set realistic expectations and remain disciplined.

Wickenhauser ends the video by encouraging investors to take advantage of market declines by rebalancing to a predetermined, long-term asset allocation. Talk to your Moneta advisor about what this could look like within your specific portfolio and circumstances.
