Discipline is essential, especially in times such as these. We have learned from Vanguard—a trusted investment firm—who is reminding their clients that in times of volatility, staying the course makes the most sense.  Let the benefit of the diversification that you set in calm times help you in volatile ones. Generally, markets have experienced gains for the last decade; it’s important to remember that equity markets are filled with ups and downs, but have rewarded investors over the long term. Vanguard Charitable will continue to offer investments at a low cost with clear objectives, and a disciplined and long-term perspective.  During times of volatility, we encourage you to stay the course with an investment strategy that best meets your long term charitable plans.
