Finding clarity in volatile markets

Expert Perspective

 | 

March 10, 2026

When markets turn volatile, the real job for advisors is separating headlines from portfolio decisions. In this short video, Matt Wrzesniewsky, Vanguard’s head of Fixed Income Client Portfolio Management, breaks down what matters most right now: staying focused amid macro uncertainty, understanding where risks are shifting across credit, and framing geopolitical shocks in long‑term portfolios.

Matt reminds advisors that when volatility rises, the edge comes from disciplined security selection, staying anchored in fundamentals, and maintaining thoughtful diversification. This has, historically, mattered more than predicting every macro twist to get it perfectly right.

Watch the video to hear Matt’s full perspective on navigating today’s volatility with clarity and discipline.
