Three Charts That Have Our Attention

If you are curious about what’s going on in the market or economy, we’d like to share some charts / graphics that we think are insightful.

Markets & Government Shutdowns. What happens to your portfolio when the government shuts down? History suggest the political nuisance is nothing to react to.


Time in the Market. This chart highlights a fundamental principle of investing: the longer you stay invested, the lower your chances of experiencing losses. Short-term market movements can be volatile and unpredictable, but over time, the likelihood of negative returns diminishes significantly. It reinforces why patience and a long-term perspective are key drivers of successful equity investing.



US Equity Valuations. U.S. equity valuations remain expensive, especially in large-cap and growth segments. Future returns will likely depend more on earnings growth than further multiple expansion.
