ETFs have been on the rise in recent years, especially among young investors. But at the beginning of 2025, the latter perhaps experienced their first “crash”, a brutal market correction, in particular following the announcements of Donald Trump on customs duties on April 2. Thus, for those who start on the stock market, the temptation is great to stop the costs and to withdraw its capital. Is it really the right strategy? Answer in this new issue of the “Great Savings Rendez-vous” (Capital / Radio Patrimoine).
You have to keep the course of your investment horizon
Not if we believe Olivier Maltete, director of investments at Yomoni: “Once you have defined your investment horizon and risk profile, even in the middle of the storm, you have to stay on display.»» Because going out in a moment of panic can be expensive: “Customers who have missed the day of April 9, when Donald Trump announced a temporary freeze on new customs duties, have undoubtedly lost a large part of the performance of the year”point our guest.
“It is never very pleasant to start with a lower cycle, but you have to hang on on the long term horizon”abounds Guillaume Berthiaux, president of Sofidy Private Management. This wealth management advisor advises its customers a investment horizon of at least five years to invest in the markets. Markets on which we do not find only actions, which can be a withdrawal solution to mitigate the tremors, without disinvesting: “Thanks to bond or monetary ETFs, you can partially desensitize yourself, adjust your allowance while remaining exposed”suggests Olivier Maltete. Last option not to give in to your impulses and make mistakes: choose a controlled management, and thus delegate the management of your portfolio to a professional.
