What do you do in an extended market downside as opposed to a short one? How do you invest in a downturn market? The closer we are to retirement, the more nervous a downside market affects us.

All year 2022, the market has been volatile, and the recovery is not as quick as we experienced during the 2020 pandemic. What we’re looking for now are investments that are low risks, not correlated to the stock market, and do well in rising interest rate markets.

In this episode of the Secure Your Retirement podcast, we talk about the current market volatility and how to invest. Listen in to learn about the fund designed to protect your investment and the other one that does better in a high-interest rate market.
