To manage market jitters… know what you own and why (Ep. 39)

The show must go on… Unless you fall off a 10-foot ladder while hanging Christmas lights. And then get the flu. Yep, I had the double whammy last week. But a good thing about being laid up in bed is I had plenty of quiet time to think. (See… I’m not always a contrarian!) Market volatility is high—and it’s coming from many different fronts: slowing growth fears… trade wars… escalating Brexit uncertainty… growing unrest in France… just to name a few. The first step to easing uncertainty in a volatile market is to become intimately familiar with your own portfolio...   I also knew there must be something of value that’s being overlooked amid the chaos. And sure enough, I found one sector that’s worthy of more investigation.
