Sequence of Return Risk
Sequence of Returns Risk shows how the timing of market gains and losses can significantly impact retirement outcomes. Even if two investors earn the same average return, experiencing market declines early in retirement while taking withdrawals can cause a portfolio to run out much sooner. This highlights the importance of managing volatility and protecting income during retirement.
The goal is simple: It doesn't have to go that way.
