Ep. 34 – Top investment mistakes retirees have made since 2020

Welcome to another episode of The Planning for Retirement Podcast. I’m your host, Kevin Lao!

2020-2023 brought about legitimate market volatility, the first we’ve experienced since The Great Recession of 2008. I thought I would share some common mistakes I’ve personally seen retirees make over the last few years to highlight the importance of having a disciplined, unemotional, repeatable, investment process.

I’ll also highlight some of the key metrics we are watching in 2024 and how we are currently managing risk in portfolios.

Here are some of the links I referenced in the show:

– Follow me on Facebook (I posted both the Consumer Confidence and the Periodic Table of Returns charts on my Facebook page because they weren’t linking properly in the show notes).

– Follow me on LinkedIn

– Economic Trends in Equity Markets

– What do the markets do after rate cuts are over?

– What do the markets do when there is a Presidential election?

– 2004 – 2023 Periodic Table of Returns

– Magnificent 7 vs. the market
