While market growth often takes the spotlight, protecting your wealth from significant losses is just as important. At Murray Street Capital Advisors, downside protection is a cornerstone of our strategy, ensuring your portfolio remains resilient in all market conditions.
The Math of Losses and Recovery
Large losses require even larger gains to recover:
A 50% loss needs a 100% gain to break even.
A 20% loss needs a 25% gain to recover.
Minimizing drawdowns ensures your portfolio stays on track, reducing recovery time and preserving long-term growth potential.
Our Approach to Downside Protection
