Market Volatility and the Long-Term Investor: What Investors Need to Know About Equity Market Risk

Few things are more upsetting to investors than a serious episode of stock market volatility. At such times, it’s easy to lose confidence in your long-term investment strategy. For most investors, though, the most serious risk they face isn’t the chance that stock prices might fall further. The real danger is making investment decisions they’ll deeply regret later on.

Your Invitation to learn more
Smith Barney Consulting Group’s seminar, Market Volatility and the Long-Term Investor, takes a comprehensive look at both the risks and the potential rewards of equity investing, and reveals that many widely believed “facts” about market volatility are simply incorrect. Some highlights:
- Long-term investors in U.S. stocks typically have been well rewarded for the risks they have taken— despite the occasional bear market.
- Compared to bonds and short-term cash instruments, equity returns historically have been higher than the relative risks would suggest.
- The recent upswing in short-term volatility, while significant, has hardly been exceptional. Volatility has risen and fallen in cycles over the past three decades.
- Timing the market is something even many professional investors can’t do successfully. And the costs of being out of the market for even a short time potentially can be enormous.

Please join us for an in-depth discussion of this important topic.
