Are tariffs the problem or just a symptom? Recent tariff announcements are stirring up uncertainty. What does that mean for inflation, economic growth, and investor sentiment?
In this episode of Off the Wall, hosts Jessica Gibbs, CFP®, and David B. Armstrong, CFA, are joined by Monument Wealth Management’s Portfolio Management team Erin M. Hay, CFA, CMT®, and Nate W. Tonsager, CIPM® to address the biggest market headlines in the first quarter of 2025.
Dave breaks down where we’ve seen the biggest market swings, Erin digs into how sector rotation and technical indicators are shaping his outlook, and Nate explains that market volatility works both ways and isn't just to the downside.
The conversation then delves deeper into the realities of market volatility, exploring why corrections and sharp sell-offs are less about impending doom and more about natural market cycles. Hear their candid discussion on the challenges of timing the market, the importance of maintaining a cash buffer, and why a long-term strategy remains your best defense amid short-term noise.
