065: Why Elections Shouldn't Change Your Investing Mindset with David Hathaway


Listen Later

In just a few weeks, Americans will vote to decide who will become the next President. With all the commercials and political coverage dominating our screens, it's easy to get caught up in the media circus during the election season. It's also difficult to determine how much elections should weigh on your mind, as well as your investing strategies and retirement plans.

In today's episode, SHP Financial's Matthew Peck and David Hathaway discuss how our elections impact the economy and your investing mindset. We've been hearing about market volatility, inflation, and a potential recession for some time now, but is it all doom and gloom?

In this conversation, we dive into why we let elections influence our investing decisions, the roles that our elected officials have in shaping our economy, and what to pay attention to and what to ignore in the weeks ahead before the next President is elected.

In this podcast interview, you'll learn:

  • How much impact presidents (and presidential elections) have on our economy–and why it's actually less than you think.
  • Why Congressional and local elections are equally or maybe even more important than who is elected as President.
  • The downside of letting elections influence your investing mindset and overall outlook on the economy.
