Pessimism sounds smart.
Optimism sounds dumb.
Pessimism means you can see what’s wrong.
Optimism means everything’s great (which falls somewhere between Pollyanna and ignorance).
Pessimism feels like you’re in control. You’ve pinpointed what’s not working and you know how to fix it.
Optimism feels like you’re crossing your fingers and hoping everything works out.
These are also the reasons pessimism sells and optimism does not. (If there’s nothing to fix, there’s no
solutions to buy.)
So the latest of pessimistic chatter is that big, bad spooky inflation is coming!
Boo! Just in time for Halloween.
And you know what? They might be right.
Actually, in fact, I can guarantee you at some point inflation will be here and affect the economy and the
markets and your portfolio.
And you know what we’re gonna do about it?
Stay invested…
Rebalance opportunistically…
And ignore the headlines.
Because just like market downturns, if you’re invested correctly inflation won’t throw you off course.
