Each of these periods saw huge equity market declines like what we saw last year with the COVID19 global pandemic market decline.<\/p>\n<p>Although a global investment strategy would have suffered losses immediately following most of these events, the financial markets recovered over time, as indicated by the positive five-year cumulative returns. \u00a0As you can see in this chart, the subsequent 1 year returns (in blue), 3 year returns (in yellow) and 5 year returns (in green) show that even in major crises, markets are likely to recover within a few years time.<\/p>\n<p>Negative events such as these may tempt investors to flee the financial markets. But diversification and a long-term perspective can help investors apply discipline to ride out the storm.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr class=\"solid\" \/>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1520 size-full alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/thewonggroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2021\/01\/Markets-have-rewarded-dicipline.png\" alt=\"markets have rewarded discipline\" width=\"1004\" height=\"757\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Slide 3: Markets Have Rewarded Discipline<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What we also know, is that despite a lot of scary world events and dramatic crises, investing in global equities have rewarded investors who have stayed disciplined.<\/p>\n<p>This chart shows the growth of $1 CAD invested back in 1970, despite all of these historic events like the Arab Oil Embargo, the huge inflation of the 70\u2019s and the subsequent 43% drop in the S&amp;P500, the Businessweek magazine cover \u201cThe Death of Equities, and all the other events, that $1 CAD would now be worth $83.\u00a0 83 times your money.<\/p>\n<p>Now that 83x your money wasn\u2019t a straight line of growth.\u00a0 No way.\u00a0 But what I want to show you is how it\u2019s totally Normal and Expected for the markets be experience volatility, and yet recover and continue to new highs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr class=\"solid\" \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1520 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/thewonggroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2021\/01\/A-History-of-Market-Ups-and-Downs.png\" alt=\"history of market ups and downs\" width=\"1004\" height=\"757\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Slide 4: A History of Market Ups and Downs<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some good news as well, is that the good times typically last longer than the bad times.\u00a0 This chart shows a timeline from 1920 to the end of last year, with the blue being periods of the US Equity market growing, punctuated by brief red periods of market declines of 10% or more.<\/p>\n<p>We can see from the chart that good times for the market have been disproportionately longer than the bad times, and the duration of the bull run is not a useful indicator of future performance.

On paper, market timing offers a seductive prospect: By predicting market direction ahead of time, a trader might capture only the best-performing days and avoid the worst.<\/p>\n<p>This slide tells the other side of that story. Large gains may come in quick, unpredictable surges. A trader who misinterprets events may leave the market at the wrong time. Missing only a small fraction of days\u2014especially the best days\u2014can defeat a timer\u2019s strategy.<\/p>\n<p>For example, since 1977, missing the best 25 trading days would have significantly cut the S&amp;P TSX Composite Index\u2019s annualized compound return, by almost a third.<\/p>\n<p>Trying to forecast which days or weeks will yield good or bad returns is a guessing game that can prove costly for investors.\u00a0 Leave it to us to help use the volatility to your advantage and stack the odds in your favor over time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr class=\"solid\" \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1520 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/thewonggroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2021\/01\/Distribution-of-US-Market-Returns.png\" alt=\"Distribution of US Market Returns\" width=\"1004\" height=\"757\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Slide 11: Distribution of US Market Returns<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, there can be bad years, but the good news is that there are more often good equity market years than there are bad.<\/p>\n<p>The above chart shows the historical distribution of US market returns since 1926.
