September 8, 8:01 am EST. August saw the largest percent stock market increases since 1984. That’s the good news. The bad news is both September and October are historically down months for the overall market. The other good news is that you are not invested exclusively in the stock market averages.

This month we’ll focus on the reality: we’re within 2% of where the average market indices were before COVID-19 dominated our lives.

If you’re an investor and healthy, you’re doing alight, for the fourth month in a row.
