Frequent Investing Checks May Undermine Young Investors’ Long-Term Returns

Frequent Investing Checks May Undermine Young Investors’ Long-Term Returns

Many young people check their investments often.

Some also buy or sell investments every week.

This information comes from a survey across six countries, not from India alone.

Paying attention to investments can help people understand them.

But reacting to every market change can make it harder to stick to a long-term plan.

Frequent trading can also add costs.

Young investors can review whether their investments still fit their goals without trading every time prices move.

The report says advisers can help people avoid choices driven by fear of missing out or overconfidence.
