October and November were the epitome of investment markets behaving like a rollercoaster. Markets fell across the board and then rallied just a few weeks later. It's for this reason that trying to time the market can be like walking a tightrope without the safety net. The best approach investors can adopt is to stick to their long-term investment plan, continue to invest and ensure you are diversified. InvestSMART's portfolios are built for all market conditions, so that when markets fall your portfolio is cushioned by the defensive assets it holds.
