How might politics impact their portfolio?

If you had invested $10,000 in 1961 and only during periods when a Republican was in office, your investment would have grown to approximately $100,000 today. Conversely, if you had invested the same amount solely during Democratic administrations, your portfolio would have reached around $577,000.

However, if you had invested $10,000 in 1961 and kept it invested without withdrawing, your portfolio would be worth nearly $6 million today.

This highlights the importance of maintaining a disciplined, long-term approach to investing. It is essential to manage emotions and remain invested, especially considering the potential for market volatility due to current or future policy changes. At Faith Investor Services, we focus on investing in companies with strong earnings, as this is the key to long-term growth.
