What is Valuation Reset?

A “valuation reset” is an investment term used to describe stocks that have seen massive growth in the past year and are experiencing a sharp drawback now1. In layman’s terms, it is just a big word for a mini-correction. A stock got a bit higher than it should have, and the market is correcting itself.

 

Look Long-Term

This is a healthy thing! A valuation reset is nothing to be alarmed with in the long-term. This is the market doing exactly what it should do, and one of the ways the Fed combats inflation rates. There’s evidence that inflation has finally apexed, a good thing for investors thinking long-term. 

There’s also speculation in regards to a global recession that may be looming, though experts disagree on this. As long-term investors, we like to zoom out and look at this as an opportunity. It’s time to look for companies and sectors where they aren’t as affected if people stop shopping in the face of a recession.
