In light of recent market volatility, BBT wants to share a message

By BBT on March 1, 2018

Remember that your retirement plan is intended for long-term investment. Attempts to time the market are rarely successful. One way to manage risk over time is to ensure you have a diversified portfolio that is rebalanced through up-and-down markets. Keep your individual needs, goals, and time horizon in mind, and consult with your financial adviser if needed. It is important to note that diversification and rebalancing do not ensure a profit and do not protect against loss in declining markets.
