There is always a risk to investing and in volatile markets, your investments can be vulnerable. That doesn’t mean you need to be vulnerable. During times like this, fraudsters can come knocking on your door to take advantage on your concerns – from investments that guarantee a fixed return, to pretending to be your investment professional or your online brokerage to steal your personal information. Always, stop and think before you do. Verify the information and when in doubt, get their name and information and call the actual organization (with a number you trust). Nowadays, financial institutions will not ask you for personal information on the phone. You always have the right to do your due diligence. #VolatilityChat

Don’t panic! If you have a long runway, think about ways that you can buy in. When stocks are low, great time to buy. Look at whether you need to rebalance or diversify your portfolio. Perhaps you have too much in one area that is more susceptible to large swings in value. And if you are really concerned, keep more cash on hand rather than leaving it in the market. Maybe sleep on it and reinvest when you feel that the markets are more stable. Risk tolerance is all about whether or not you can sleep at night. #VolatilityChat

This depends on the type of investor that you are. For most of us, we tend to be long-term investors. Many of us are investing for retirement so your investment strategy needs to change depending on what your needs will be in the short and long term. The first thing is not to panic. If you are closer to retirement, think about the money that you need soon. Do you have enough? And if not, rather than selling low, can you lower costs or find other incomes. If you time horizon is longer, stay the course, the markets tend to correct themselves but look to rebalance your portfolio. This is a great time to reevaluate your time horizon (when you will need the money), revisit your goals, and be honest with your level of risk. We change and so should the way we manage our money. #VolatilityChat

Movements in the market are really about how people feel. The basic definition is that the price of stocks are based on the supply and demand for those stocks. Many factors come into play – whether economic (think interest rates and geopolitics), or changes at the company (if it is an individual stock). In the end, it’s about how investors are feeling and the actions they take that can increase market volatility. That volatility is measured at how small or large the price swings for stocks, mutual funds, ETFs…etc. #VolatilityChat

We were pleased to see the federal government endorse our recommendation to remove the filing requirement for Canadian corporations, partnerships and trusts from the Underused Housing Tax (UHT). Unfortunately, the exemption does not extend to 2022 creating “uncertainty” for those Canadians who would be required to file for that year and the tax professionals advising them.
