💸 Stock Market Crash Survival Guide: April 2025 Edition 💸
🐣 April has started off with many investors panicking and I’ve had enough friends reach out to me to ask why things are going down that I decided to make this post!
⏳History has shown that markets always recover (and while we can’t predict the future, it’s likely that this is no different)
This carousel gives an overview of:
• What’s actually happening with the current crash
• Potential causes behind the market drop
• Broad historical context (this isn’t our first rodeo!)
• Practical steps for YOU, the rational and calm investor 😬😌
🎧 We mainly focus on the S&P500 because this is the most recommended index fund by professional investors for the ‘average-day’ beginner investor
🫠 As I’m sure you’ve seen enough times by now, the ‘best’ investors stay calm when others panic (I would argue this applies to everything in life!)
🤔 I did have a moment of doubt too but at the end of the day: 1) I only invest what I can afford to loose, and 2) Ultimately the stock market only exists because companies exist so as long as the major companies don’t collapse all of a sudden, they should be able to persevere and move through any crash
🧳 I haven’t sold any shares during this crash because I invest with a long-term strategy of holding anywhere between 7-10 years and I’m EXPECTING a crash in that time period
