We have had a decade long period bull market, what comes next?
We are definitely not in 2021, or even 2022 anymore – the clearest sign that ship has sailed is that not even the latest Consumer Price Inflation data could cause much of a ruckus.
- The VIX Index—known as the equity market’s fear gauge—has ended above its historical average 94% of trading days
- The bond market’s analogous MOVE Index has ended above its historical average 87% of trading days
- The S&P 500 has experienced 61 daily movements greater than 2%, compared to seven in 2021
- Low liquidity has exacerbated these moves, with top-of-book liquidity (the dollar amount available at the bid-ask spread) printing at $10.7 million, well below the average of $18 million
With increased economic and geopolitical uncertainty, we expect volatility to remain elevated and prone to sudden spikes in 2023 as well as in the next 10 years given the macro backdrop for both traditional and satellite asset classes.
So, what should you do?
Ultimately, the decision of whether to invest or not is a personal one. But by understanding the risks and potential rewards, you can make an informed decision that’s right for you.
The next decade, with more uncertainty and volatility, might not be the same one where you can just DCA into index funds and forget
There is no shortage of debate about what the rest of the decade has in store.

More volatility means more potential drawdowns, and stronger emotions.
As an investor, it is important to understand that investment performance is not always linear, or normally distributed. A long term positive average return could hide both big wins and big losses.
How are you preparing for this?
Do you already understand the context the market is in?
Do you know how to tilt your portfolio?
Depending on the market, you might need to be more active, and enter and exit more quickly.
There will be numerous opportunities for different types of investors and we can help equip you to address the investment challenges ahead and be able to build your very own customised all-weather portfolio that can help you reach your financial goals despite any market volatility.
Why should you pick our program?
Most courses overlook your situation and advise you based on generic advice or from anyone else’s experiences but yours – which is not ideal for you.
This program is centred around helping YOU achieve the goals that are right for YOU and your life, whatever the market is doing.
We will walk you through goal setting, portfolio construction, macro, and all the major investing styles, all to create not only an all-weather portfolio but also to give you the skills to tweak these to what you want and maintain and navigate any changes independently after the program.
We want to see you get from where you are to where success looks like for you. This first means that you need to know what you want to achieve, and we will help point you in the right direction as well.
This program has been carefully curated and tediously breaks down complex methods and lessons into pure, easily digestible nuggets of gold.
We want to provide you VALUE and dedicated time from our trainer(s) so this is also a limited-seat program.
