Paradigm Capital Management, Inc.’s Post

Recent market volatility might understandably encourage investors to consider exiting the equity markets until calmer days return. Although timing the market may be tempting during tumultuous periods, it is important to remember the demonstrated benefit of remaining invested in high-quality holdings through periods of volatility. Over the past 30 years, an investor missing just the 10 best days of performance in the S&P would result in a greater than 50% reduction of return, versus remaining invested through the entire 30-year period.   Paradigm Capital was founded thirty years ago on the principle of employing a bottom-up research approach designed to identify companies with durable balance sheets and quality management teams that can navigate the difficult periods and emerge stronger on the inevitable other side.
