Dealing with Market Downturns

Have you ever felt that sinking feeling when the market is in a nosedive?

Don't worry; you're not alone.

Market downturns are as natural as the changing of seasons.

But it's your strategy during these tough times that determines your long-term profitability.

The Common Mistakes

When the market turns red, people make all sorts of mistakes:

Panic Selling: Selling off assets out of fear, thereby confirming losses

Herd Mentality: Following the crowd instead of sticking to a well-planned strategy.

The Smart Moves.

Calm Assessment: Take a deep breath and evaluate the reasons behind the downturn.

Dollar-Cost Averaging: This strategy involves buying assets at regular intervals, regardless of their price, to reduce the impact of volatility.

Reallocation: Use this time to rebalance your portfolio, selling underperforming assets and buying more of the discounted ones.
