We’re down 10% in just the last week!
We’re down 18% year-to-date!
Surely NOW it’s time to freak out, right? RIGHT!?!?
Nah.
Let’ jump in our DeLorean and go back to June 2017.
If I told you back then that you’ll earn a 9.85% annual return on your money over the next 5 years, would you’ve been happy?
Probably so.
Well guess what!?
Even after all the nastiness of this year, that’s EXACTLY what you’ve gotten from the S&P 500 over the last 5 years.
Sometime the best investment strategy is the Rip Van Winkle strategy.
Invest it right, set up automatic rebalancing with an automated investment program and only check in every 5 years.
