For investors, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed by the relentless stream of news about markets. Being bombarded with data and headlines presented as affecting your financial well-being can evoke strong emotional responses from even the most experienced investors. Headlines from the so-called lost decade–the 2000s, when the S&P 500 ended below where it began–can help illustrate several periods that may have led market participants to question their approach.
DISCLOSURES:
There is no guarantee that any investment strategies will be successful. Investing involves risks, such as fluctuating value, potential loss of investment gains and principal.
Performance data shown represents past performance. Past performance or the use of an advisor is no guarantee of future results. Market performance after 2020 may be higher or lower than the performance shown.
The positive investment outcome presented was the result of maintaining investment in a broadly diversified all-equity portfolio over the specified period. Other time periods may have different results, including losses. However, the performance of a hypothetical investment does not reflect transaction costs, taxes or returns that any investor actually attained and may not reflect the true costs, including management fees of an actual portfolio. Changes in any assumption may have a material impact on the hypothetical returns presented. It is not possible to invest directly in any index.
Financial advisors also charge an advisory fee that varies amongst clients and would be paid throughout the investment period. This advisory fee is not included in the performance results. Dimensional makes no representation as to the suitability of any advisor, and DFA does not endorse, recommend or guarantee the services of any advisor, including those in the Find an Advisor portion of our website.
