Why Staying on Top of Your Portfolio Matters More Than Ever in Volatile Markets
The first quarter of 2025 has been a rollercoaster for investors. Major indices like the S&P 500 have experienced dramatic swings, with some sectors posting double-digit daily losses before rebounding swiftly. According to Reuters, the S&P 500 plunged close to bear market territory following tariff announcements, only to surge nearly 10% in a single day after policy reversals—the index’s largest daily gain since 2008.
So how should investors respond?
Volatility Is Not the Time to Go Dark
Research from Vanguard underscores that investors who maintain their investment strategy during market turbulence tend to achieve better outcomes. A 2020 Vanguard study revealed that the vast majority of investors would have experienced more attractive returns by staying invested through COVID-related market turmoil. Conversely, those who moved to cash during downturns often missed out on subsequent recoveries, resulting in diminished returns.
However, tracking your investments across various platforms can be time-consuming and complex—especially when markets are moving rapidly.
