COVID-19 Update From Rothenberg Capital Management
The news and impact of the COVID-19 CoronaVirus is changing at a rapid pace. For over 40 years the Rothenberg Capital Management team has guided our clients through uncertain times.
The health and safety of our employees and all our clients is of paramount importance to us. As a result our offices are operating with the employees working from their homes. While our Associates are home with their loved ones we will support them with pay as well as look for other ways we might ease their concerns and show our appreciation for all they do for The Rothenberg Group.
You can contact your Advisor by calling 514-934-0586 and he/she will serve you with the same promptness and professionalism as if they were in their office.
You are predominately invested in quality portfolios holding a mix of government and corporate bonds and quality dividend paying companies. What were sound good companies yesterday will be sound good companies tomorrow.
We can expect the volatility to continue but in the interim, here are a few suggestions for you:
- No hasty decisions: when markets are volatile investors can be tempted to liquidate their assets. Historically, this volatility will not last forever and markets recover. The best course of action is to focus on the long term.
- Avoid timing markets: Your Wealth Management Advisor’s disciplined approach will help to keep a cool head and avoid ‘panic selling’ and then the sudden ‘panic buying’ when the markets recover.
- Take advantage of volatility: As mentioned earlier, most often, what were sound good companies yesterday will be sound good companies tomorrow.
If you have concerns or questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to your Advisor. If any of your friends or relatives are concerned about their investments, feel free to have them contact us as well.
We are here for you.
