Jack Phelps, founder of The Relaxing Retirement Coach, points out the devastating effects of panicking and overreacting to market volatility.

Wellesley, MA – December 19, 2011  – Jack Phelps, founder of The Relaxing Retirement Coach, a Retirement Coaching company, recently published a blog on his website (http://www.theretirementcoach.com) examining the causes of sub-par investment performance. The blog, titled “Panic!” notes that the mass media tends to blow current events out of proportion and urges retirees to focus on making rational, long term decisions in spite of it.

Jack Phelps writes, “When you’re in the Panic phase, there is a complete sense that there is no price at which you can intelligently sell because it will always be lower tomorrow…and then lower again the next day after that.”
