The recent turbulence in the bond market has once again reminded us of a crucial investment principle: long-term focus is the key to achieving your financial goals.
As famed investor Warren Buffet once said, “Benign neglect, bordering on sloth, remains the hallmark of our investment process.” In other words, rather than getting caught up in daily market fluctuations, it’s better to keep your eyes on the bigger picture. Time in the market beats trying to time the market.
