3 Things To Remember
Beating inflation isn’t necessarily a year-to-year thing. You have to view beating inflation with a long-term mindset. The market may or may not beat inflation in a given year, but over time, the market usually crushes inflation. It’s the market’s job to beat inflation.If you keep money in cash or bonds, you would likely lose out to inflation in the long term, even with the interest you made. Not all interest keeps up with inflation.Before slowing your investment activity, ask yourself: are the market changes we’re experiencing outside the scope of what we expect from the market? If the answer is no, keep investing.
