Episode 165: Investment Friday — Volatility & Your Portfolio: How to Stay Steady When Markets Get Shaky with Brad Haines

Volatility is back in a big way — and the rollercoaster markets of 2025 are leaving many investors feeling anxious, uncertain, and ready to "get off the ride." This week, Hannah Chapman, CFP®, APMA®, CRPC®, and Brad Haines, CFA, FRM, and Chief Investment Officer at Juncture Wealth Strategies, break down what's really driving the market turbulence — from chaotic policy announcements to global trade fears — and why volatility itself isn't the enemy. Instead, they share why short-term uncertainty creates long-term opportunity — if you have the right mindset and plan in place. Learn more about: • Why volatility is normal — and how often corrections actually happen• How political uncertainty — including tariffs, trade deals, and policy whiplash — is impacting investor confidence• Why the average investor reacts at exactly the wrong times — and how to break that cycle• What history teaches us about pullbacks, recoveries, and long-term wealth creation• How understanding drawdowns can help you stay calm and even buy in at the right time• How Juncture's hedging protocols help prepare clients to take advantage of dips (instead of fearing them) If you've been feeling the market anxiety this week, this episode will reframe volatility as an opportunity — not a reason to panic.
