What should you do after the “Brexit” vote?

Market volatility has followed the recent vote of UK citizens to leave the EU. There is uncertainty and questions as to how the markets will adjust to this transition in the United Kingdom. Making sound decisions for your retirement portfolio in a time of volatility and uncertainty can be challenging. Fear is a strong emotion that can derail a long term retirement plan goal. At DirectAdvisors, we recommend participants stay focused on the long term and do not change course with their investments due to short term fluctuations. This article from Vanguard reinforces our philosophy of a long term focus and provides further detail on the Brexit vote.
