ADVICE

Match Dip Buying To Your Time Horizon

  • Ask your time horizon before buying dips to decide which sectors fit your investing window.
  • Bryn Talkington suggests picking sectors like software or financials and buying individual names that are unjustly sold off.
ADVICE

Add Select International Positions During Volatility

  • Use active management to add specific international names rather than buying broad allocations during volatile days.
  • Jenny Harrington added Veolia, Honda, Nordea, Sekisui House and DHL to accounts when those stocks dropped ~7%.
INSIGHT

Software Charts Hide Diverse Fundamentals

  • Software names now show very similar chart patterns despite different fundamentals, implying dispersion ahead.
  • Scott Wapner and panel note AI will re-rate multiples and winners/losers are still being identified.
