Cashing Out Before A Market Crash? Protect Your Portfolio With Three Possible Options
from Diamond NestEgg · host Diamond NestEgg
"My father retired in 2000 and lost 50% of his NAV. Then hardly recovered only to experience the 2008/9 crash. It was awful for him. " For me, this was one of the more difficult comments to read from the video that we posted last week on whether your nest egg could survive a 50% S&P drop in retirement. And judging from the replies, it seems that this comment also hit a nerve with a few of you in our community. So with that in mind, let's look at the last 70+ years of stock market history and see:1. How often do bear markets occur, and how long do they last? Plus, who might want to just stay invested in equity markets right now?2.
