S&P 500 All-Time Highs and Future Performance Since 1950

The S&P 500 continues to reach milestones, hitting multiple all-time highs over the past two weeks, marking the first such achievement since late March of last year.

Many investors may feel jittery about investing at all-time highs, fearing they’re buying into something that’s peaked in value. The common sentiment is that the market is “due” for a correction at these levels. However, history serves as an invaluable guide. Data shows that investing when the stock market hits all-time highs is no riskier than investing on any other day.

Don’t let emotions throw you off course from your investment strategy. Stay the course and trust in your long-term plan.
