Historically, major market crashes have eventually recovered over time, and selling during a dip could mean missing out on the eventual rebound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this guide, we\u2019ll discuss some strategies to help you invest during periods of market volatility and <strong>how ETFs can help.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A quick refresher on ETFs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>ETFs, or exchange-traded-funds, are <strong>a type of investment product that typically&nbsp; seeks to track the performance of a <e-tip data-tooltip=\"An index is a method used to track the value of a group of usually similar assets over time.\">financial index<\/e-tip>.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark>ETFs allow you to purchase a diversified portfolio of stocks or other assets with a single transaction. This means that if one stock or sector takes a hit, your entire portfolio may not suffer as much.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These investments can also be bought and sold throughout the day, which means you can quickly react to changes in the market and make adjustments to your portfolio as needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s break down the three key ETF investing strategies you can adopt during market swings.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rebalancing&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>During market volatility, the strategy of rebalancing can <strong>help investors stay on track towards their long-term goals<\/strong>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the market experiences sudden and abrupt fluctuations, a portfolio\u2019s <e-tip data-tooltip=\"How your money is distributed across various asset classes, such as stocks, bonds, etc.\">asset allocation<\/e-tip> can become imbalanced.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark><strong>Rebalancing typically <\/strong>involves selling some of your investments and using the money generated to buy other investments.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By doing so, your portfolio is brought back in line with your original asset allocation, ensuring that the level of risk they&#8217;re exposed to remains consistent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s take a $100 portfolio in 2020, with an allocation of 60% stocks and 40% bonds.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In early 2020, at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, <strong>the stock market declined significantly <\/strong>and many stocks lost value.&nbsp; As a result, that portfolio\u2019s allocations shifted to<strong>&nbsp; 50% stocks and 50% bonds<\/strong>. (See the chart below.<sup class=\"inline-annotation\">2<\/sup>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This portfolio is now unbalanced, meaning it doesn\u2019t meet the allocation originally chosen by the investor based on their goals, <e-tip data-tooltip=\"The amount of time an investor expects to hold a position in an asset.\">time horizon<\/e-tip>, and risk tolerance. To rebalance the portfolio, you would need to sell some of your bonds and buy more stocks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This strategy of periodically rebalancing a portfolio <strong>can help increase returns over time whilst managing your risk<\/strong>.<sup class=\"inline-annotation\">2<\/sup> Case in point: The stock market rapidly recovered after the initial dip in March 2020.&nbsp;<br><br>Investors who rebalanced their portfolio to the 60\/40 allocation would have earned more money during the market recovery than those who did not rebalance their portfolio.<sup class=\"inline-annotation\">2<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>The value of rebalancing during market volatility<\/strong><sup class=\"inline-annotation\">2<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.etoro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/iShare7-Graph2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-714828 wp-image-desktop\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.etoro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/iShare7-Graph2.png 1400w, https:\/\/www.etoro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/iShare7-Graph2-300x107.png 300w, https:\/\/www.etoro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/iShare7-Graph2-1024x366.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.etoro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/iShare7-Graph2-768x274.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><sup class=\"inline-annotation\">2<\/sup><em>Source: Morningstar as of 12\/31\/2022, based to 100, using total return which assumes the reinvestment of dividends.
