Dan Lucas: How do you handle the shaky stock market

– this is a fairly typical development when it called for börsturbulens. Investors react vehemently on an event - this time the president Trumps the threat of shutting down the federal budget and leave hundreds of thousands of state employees without pay.

" But the individual event is just something that triggers börsrasen. It is also needed an environment that makes investors anxious. And where play trade wars between the united states and China. Next year, we may see an escalation which can cause hefty damage to the world economy.

– the Brexit, the united kingdom leaving the EUROPEAN union. This is the negative events for the economy and presses, therefore, stock prices.

" We have to expect large fluctuations in the courses with large cases, but also heavy recoils upwards. There is a historical pattern and it is based in a genuine uncertainty among investors. When stock prices fall a lot and on a broad front, there are always those who see the opportunity to buy cheap. When enough people see the chance rises the courses. At a certain level, buyers will become sellers in order to take home the win. And then we see these big swings.

– most savers can not fend off this development - it is difficult enough for the pros. You should bear in mind when it comes to stock market investments is that there should be long-term and to spread risk. This means that saving in broad mutual funds that invest in multiple countries and that the funds have low fees.

" But if you sleep poorly due to the storms on the stock exchange, you should probably consider a different savings, for then it is not the stock market the right place for you.
