Quote of the month – Stay invested!

Kondi Nkosi – Schroders:

“If in March 2003 you had invested $1,000 in the MSCI World and left the investment alone for the next 15 years, it would have been worth $4,211. Figures have not been adjusted for inflation or fees.

However, if you had tried to time your entry in and out of the market during that period and missed out on the index’s 30 best days, the same investment would now be worth $1,268, or $2,943 less.

Investors’ best bet is to be patient and give their investment time to grow.”
