Three ways to think long term
- Think back to your original reason for investing. Is that still what you’re aiming for?
- Don’t check the value of your investment too often.
- Don’t try and time the market by moving your money out and then in again. There may not be a clear signal when it has reached the bottom.
Investing monthly?
For monthly investors, a falling market isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Although you’re putting in the same amount, when the market goes down your money buys more, and that could give you an advantage if the market rises again.
