Savings & Investments
Investing with confidence while markets are volatile can be difficult. However, history shows that major stock markets have always reacted, and recovered from every downturn. Being able to take advantage of each recovery requires one thing; Time.
Timing the market as an investor is an almost impossible task. Even in today’s technology driven world with powerful software and systems, no human or computer can honestly profess to predict what will happen from one moment to the next.
As the saying goes; ‘time in the market trumps timing the market’. This means rather than trying to time when to buy or sell, simply remaining invested offers the potential for greater returns as the longer your money is invested, the more time it has to grow.
The best time to start saving is when you receive your first pay packet, in reality this is easier said than done. Don’t worry though, you will be pleased to know that the next best time is today. If you want to keep the life you have become accustomed to and enjoy your retirement, take action now and make everyday count.
