Running From Bears

What should you do when market volatility spikes to the downside?  We’ve heard to never run from a bear but lie down and play dead.  The same holds true in bear markets, more or less.  Ben and Brent go a few steps further on what to do.  First, they elaborate on what’s behind the August 2024 spike in volatility.  

 

The market may have calmed down for now, but a listen might help you prepare for the next correction.
