Tariffs, Turbulence, and How To Stay On Track

Retire Smarter with Kevin Kroskey, CFP® & Tyler Emrick, CFA® CFP®

Markets have been shaken by a sharp selloff, with the S&P 500 down around 15% and the Nasdaq nearly 20% year-to-date. Much of the recent volatility is being driven by escalating trade tensions and a new round of tariffs that took effect on April 9.

In this episode, Kevin Kroskey, CFP®, and Tyler Emrick, CFA®, CFP®, unpack what’s driving the recent market moves — from global supply chain disruptions to shifting investor sentiment and international dynamics.

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:

📉 Why the market hates uncertainty—and how that’s showing up now

⚖️ Risk vs. uncertainty: what’s the difference and why it matters

🔁 How “Runway” helps retirees avoid emotional investment decisions

🧰 Strategies we’re using: rebalancing, dry powder, diversification

🧠 What to do (and not do) when tempted to time the market
