    About this Episode

    Today, Keith Mooney of Mooney Lyons talks about what we should -and shouldn't - do during times of market volatility.  Before getting to specific advice, we take a look at where we sit, as of June 17, 2022.

    Aggressive investments are dropping, but so are more conservative ones.  What is stagflation?  And with inflation on the rise, how likely are we to see stagflation?

    The most important advice the Mooney Lyons team has for investors is this: Pull your emotions away from the investment decision process.  Emotions often lead to overreactions.   Focus on the cause of market volatility and use history as a tool to make informed decisions.

    When reviewing strategy, answer these three questions.  

    1. Why did I do it?
    2. Did it work?
    3. Do I need to change it?

    On the client side specifically, think about these three questions:

    1. How much time do I have for my investments?
    2. How much risk can I afford?
    3. What is my ultimate reward?

    It's important to remember that the stock market is positive, on average, in 3 out of every 4 years.  And in the last 40 years, only 6 of them have been negative for bonds.

    Keith leaves us with these key takeaways:

    Don’t be emotional

    Don’t panic 

    Don’t make silly mistakes

    Don’t try to time the market

    Adjust your portfolio.

    This way, you can weather the storm. But you have to stay invested over the long run to have success.

    Tax Loss Harvesting and Direct Indexing

    Tax Loss Harvesting and Direct Indexing

    It's hard to believe we've turned the calendar to November, but as the end of the year approaches, it's time to start thinking about year-end taxes.  Today, Jeff Scheider from Mooney Lyons briefly explains two strategies that can be advantageous to investors.

    The first is tax loss harvesting.  This is the idea that if you sell certain securities at a capital loss, you can use those losses to offset capital gains in your taxes.  Jeff walks us through the process, including who and which investments are eligible, and what the restrictions are, including the Wash Rules.   We also look at pros and cons for this strategy.

    Next, we cover direct indexing - what is it and how does it work?  Instead of buying an index through an ETF like Vanguard or eShares, for example, you buy the holding in the index directly, making sure you weight your investments by sector.   You may not have all 500 stocks in the S&P for example, but you can have a good representation.   And tax loss harvesting can work hand in hand with direct indexing.  

    Of course, these strategies aren't for everyone, and we look at what criteria should be evaluated in using them.  The most important thing is to talk to an expert in the field.  That's where the team at Mooney Lyons comes in.
