“It nervously has us all”

Instability has entered the markets since April 2 Donald Trump gave his pricing warcausing falls by almost 10% in certain indices, such as S&P 500who reacted with fear of the possibility of an obstacle in international trade.

Although initially everything suggests that there would be only effects on large companies, Uncertainty already strikes the economy of Spanish familiesIn particular those who are part of their inheritance have invested in the stock market.

“”This insecurity makes us all nervous“, Says a small severe investor in Lasexta. Certain nerves that have figures, because, while in 2024, Spanish household savings in investment funds gave advantages of more than 90,000 million euros, this 2025 assumes losses for most of them, in particular for those who have invested in high volatility funds.

“”The most risky profiles involve the situation we saw during these months of correction following the tariff war, these are corrections of around 20%“Explains the financial analyst Javier Flores. This means that those who have invested one million euros accumulate losses worth 200,000 euros.

However, experts recommend that, given falls like this, the most erroneous decision would be to sell with losses, because, sooner or later, the normal thing will be that the indices will return to green numbers. “”As I am in a hurry, they go down at that time, but they will go up“Said another investor.

However, many have decided to take their investments on the stock market at a much safer value before volatile scenarios such as gold, which defeated its historic file on Tuesday, exceeding the ounce of 3,500 dollars.
