<\/span>As we close out what has been a pretty rough first half of 2022, I can\u2019t help but observe some of the biggest headlines in the media this morning. I keep seeing \u201cworst first half,\u201d or \u201cworst start to the year\u201d or similar headlines. For statisticians, I think this is quite notable. For long-term investors, this is just noise. Is it worth noting? Sure. Is it important to keep this in mind as you (reluctantly) review your monthly statements? Sure. But, unless you are cashing out your entire portfolio in the very near future, this is just not an important data point. What if the 2nd half of the year is pretty good, and we finish the year with modest declines? Will we look back and say \u201cyeah, but what about the first 6 months!\u201d? Of course not. <\/p>\n

The simple reality is that the markets average positive returns roughly 75% of the time.[i] The markets were significantly higher in 2019, 2020 and 2021. Simple averages will suggest that 2022 \u201cshould\u201d be a down year. And, with the above-average returns in the last 3 years, it makes sense that 2022 could be a little worse than the average negative year. At the moment, despite unsightly statements and alarming headlines, the current environment makes some sense, especially given the major \u201cmacro\u201d events that have popped up in 2022, including significant inflation and a war in Eastern Europe. We\u2019ve seen these things before though. They are not unprecedented.<\/p>\n

Hang in there. Markets will figure this stuff out sooner than most expect<\/strong><\/p>\n
