[00:00:00]There's a lot of fear out there right now about the stock market and the economy in general. The economy seems to be suffering while the stock market takes on new record highs. A lot of people are asking, "What do I do with my stock bond portfolio right now?" An interesting study that recently came out showed that after peaks in the stock market, the one year return after those peaks on average are 13.7%. That's after one year at an all-time high. And after three years, 10.6% after five years 10.2%. So, to say that timing the market [music] can save you and waiting for a drop in the market can save or make you a lot of money might not be the best way to go about things.
