How to invest when stocks are sinking

CNN  

New York CNN — March has been a dizzying month for US markets. What’s not healthy is straight up.” Still, seeing your retirement account take a hit can be unnerving, especially given the whiplash of recent market swings. “Protecting your portfolio isn’t about timing the market — it’s about time in the market with a strategy that can withstand the storm,” Ulin said. “Think of diversification as your portfolio’s seatbelt, keeping you secure when markets hit rough air.” If your portfolio is overexposed to US stocks, it might be smart to consider buying stocks in global markets like Europe and to further diversify by investing in Treasury bonds. Diversification might also look like investing in stocks in industries that have less exposure to tariffs, or “tariff-proofing” your portfolio, Ulin said.
