Are tariffs the problem or just a symptom? Recent tariff announcements are stirring up uncertainty. What does that mean for inflation, economic growth, and investor sentiment? In this episode of Off the Wall, hosts Jessica Gibbs, CFP®, and David B. Armstrong, CFA, are joined by Monument Wealth Management’s Portfolio Management team Erin M. Hay, CFA, CMT®, and Nate W. Tonsager, CIPM® to address the biggest market headlines in the first quarter of 2025.
Erin Hay and Ro Punyani from Monument’s Portfolio Management Team join Dave Armstrong to dig under the surface of the 2021 headlines to uncover what was REALLY going on in the market and how that will impact us moving forward. They review the big 2021 takeaways so we can use history as our guide.
They cover:
- How to invest based off trend-following instead of predictions
- How to use market momentum to your advantage
- How to “avoid catching falling knives”
- What happens when a few large companies are driving market performance
- What volatility in interest rates means for investments
- When (and when not) to own bonds
- How to prepare your portfolio for the future
As a fun bonus, the team shares what they found to be the biggest market surprises from last year.
