The cost of trying to time the market

Trying to time the market or reacting to the latest trends or news in making changes to your portfolio, while tempting, involves getting two nearly impossible decisions correct: when to sell and when to buy.

An important benefit of working with Heritage Bank is the opportunity to establish a long-term investment strategy that remains consistent with your goals and doesn’t involve trying to time the market.

Risk vs return asset allocation icon

Risk vs. return asset allocation model

As an investor, you can’t completely eliminate risk, but you can manage it through the diversification of the investments you hold. Investment returns tend to be higher as the level of risk goes up.

At Heritage Bank, your portfolio of investments will be constructed in a manner that is consistent with your financial objectives and your tolerance for risk.
