When markets drop and headlines turn red, panic often sets in. But at Vertis Wealth, we help clients navigate these downturns with clarity and confidence — not fear. Bear markets aren’t the end of your financial story; they’re just part of the journey.

Here’s what you need to know:

• Bear markets are normal. They occur when stocks drop 20% or more, but historically, they’ve been short-lived — lasting around 9–10 months on average.

• Emotions can be costly. Acting on fear often means selling low. Our advisors help you stay focused on your long-term strategy.

• Your plan still works. If your goals haven’t changed, your investment approach shouldn’t either.

• Smart moves matter. We help you:

  • Focus on high-quality investments

  • Continue investing steadily through dollar-cost averaging

  • Diversify for protection

  • Rebalance when needed — not reactively

The Bottom Line:
Bear markets test patience, but they also reveal opportunity. The clients who stay steady — and stay advised — often come out stronger.
