Why the Next Decade May Bring Lower Returns—And What It Means for You (EP.176)
About this episode
Are we entering a decade of low returns?
Goldman Sachs projects that S&P 500 returns will average only 3% annually over the next ten years—far below the historical norm of 13% in the last decade. While I'm not a believer in predicting the future, there are several useful elements in their research worth discussing.
In this episode, I'll explore what's behind this forecast and what it means for investors. Plus, how to adapt to the shifting landscape with strategies that go beyond the traditional S&P 500.
Listen now and learn:
-
How one goes about forecasting future returns in the first place
-
Historical instances where stocks underperformed cash for more than a decade
-
Implications and actionable considerations for a period of lower US stock returns
