Don't let the US-Iran conflict derail your retirement funds, investors say.
“It’s lower than it was because of the shale revolution and because the U.S. is a producer,” said Scott Ladner, chief investment officer at Horizon Investments. “There’s definitely a bit of a buffer there because the nature of the market has changed. It’s more diverse set of oil producers around the world,” he said.
It also doesn’t mean that the market fallout from a potential oil supply disruption would be limited to energy company stocks. “With energy prices going up, that would adversely affect the cyclical sectors, probably putting some pressure on the basic materials and industrials,” Stovall said, adding that the defense industry is one notable exception.
For investors saving and retirement savers, though, financial advisers urged calm. The risk of trying to time market movements — a speculative activity even the pros often get wrong — is far greater than the risk of a short term dip in returns, they say.
