      Time in the market beats market timing

      Remaining invested through market volatility is generally one of the best ways to build wealth over the long term. Missing out on the market’s best days by reactively selling can erode an investor’s long-term return potential and reduce the probability of investment success. Often, the stock market’s biggest down days occur near the market’s largest up days.
