Webinar Recording | A Few Things to Do While Staying the Course

The recording of our webinar on navigating changing market conditions is now available.

Whether or not you’ve engaged a financial advisor, almost all investors have inevitably heard the term “stay the course” at one point in time. Advisors recognize that this is not always the most comforting thing to hear. After all, doing nothing when you feel a market correction coming can be nerve-wracking, as can sticking to your strategic plan when the market is surging higher.

On Thursday, March 11th at 12:00 PM CT, SWP wealth team members Michael Karmin, AJ Price and Adam Rudolph held a complimentary webinar to outline some things you can do to take advantage of potential changes in both the markets and current tax policies. Specifically, we covered:

  • Portfolio adjustments you can make while “staying the course”
  • Planning strategies to “make lemonade out of lemons” during market corrections
  • Ways to take advantage of potential policy changes proposed by the current administration
  • How to get the most out of the current tax environment

Making It Through Volatile Markets
Yesterday’s news about new worldwide tariffs and the resulting impact on financial markets is going to scare a lot of people. Whether you are someone who looks at your portfolio every day, checks periodically, or hardly ever looks at all, it would not be unusual to have some sort of impulse to take action with your portfolio. The most drastic would be to “go to cash,” presumably re-entering the market “when things get better.” The issue is always that it will never feel like a good time to get back in. Think back to March 23, 2020…everyone was locked down in their homes, and the impact of COVID had only just begun. Yet despite the fact that people were still wearing masks and maintaining other COVID-related precautions a year + later, that day in March 2020 turned out to be a generational buying opportunity for stocks.

A Primer on Private Equity
On the surface, it’s logical that owning a diversified basket of public stocks (individual companies and/or indexes) is reflective of the broader economy, but the data doesn’t support it. In 1996, roughly 8,000 companies were listed in the U.S. stock market. Today, that number is fewer than 4,000.
