Investments and Market Volatility
The ScholarShare 529 investment lineup is designed to weather uncertainty thanks to the plan’s program manager, TIAA-CREF Tuition Financing, Inc. (TFI), which has managed state 529 plans for more than 20 years. The TFI investment team recently offered its perspective for college savers as well as additional college savings tips amid stock market volatility.
