How to Invest During Record Highs
With global markets reaching new record highs and the rally continuing, we are advising clients to invest new money with caution. While optimism remains strong, a pullback is likely — though it’s impossible to predict when or what will trigger it.
Even a brief period of profit-taking could lead to a sharp decline, so now is the time to focus on strategy, diversification, and discipline.
Invest in Tranches to Manage Timing Risk
If you’re looking to invest £100,000 or more, we recommend staggering your investment over the coming months rather than committing it all at once.
This approach allows you to:
- Avoid investing at a market peak
- Retain cash to take advantage of lower prices after a correction
- Benefit from any ongoing rally with a portion of your capital already invested
This tranche-based approach takes the guesswork out of timing the market and helps create a smoother path to long-term growth.
Focus on Diversification and Downside Protection
Alongside a well-diversified portfolio aligned to your risk appetite, consider allocating part of your funds to assets that offer:
- Defined returns with capital protection
- Potential to earn even if markets fall
- Capped upside, but significant downside protection
These investments can help safeguard capital and maintain growth potential in uncertain markets.
