Stop Losing Money!
After months of anticipation, the Federal Reserve embarked on the long-anticipated process of tapering its bond purchase program known as “quantitative easing”. For those who rely on the media to steer their investment dollars, the days leading up to the FOMC meeting were filled with intense fear and trepidation, and in many cases, led to panicked selling.
We believe that with the proper coaching, those investors would have approached the FOMC meeting knowing that the market had long anticipated and positioned for a lowering in bond purchases and that such a policy shift was a reflection of economic strength. As we approach a new year, it’s vitally important that we try to ignore the media and follow our mantra of “invest, don’t trade”.
