GameStop, AMC, BlackBerry. These are a few of the stocks that are getting national attention by everyone right now. Their stock prices are soaring and it’s causing a disruption in the market and has upset a lot of people.

It’s a complex story that has pitted the small investor vs. large hedge fund vs. brokerages vs. clearinghouses vs. public opinion.

In today’s podcast we unravel the whole story for you in a simplified way. We discuss who’s right, who’s wrong, what it means for the market and what it may mean for you.

Today’s stock market, in some ways, reminds us of the late '90s and in other ways, it’s completely different.

The similarity between now and then, as we discuss in the podcast, is the euphoria that exists in some pockets of the market. The people invested in these pockets are starting to make some loud noise. They remind us of the Hare in Aesop’s famous fable. 

In today’s podcast, we discuss how important it is to have a process in place for investing, the importance of discipline to that process. We also discuss that pesky Hare and the consistent Tortoise and what we can learn from them with regards to your investments.

After a rough start to the year, the market has been skyrocketing higher and higher. Whenever this type of market movement occurs, something else also occurs.  

    - People start day trading for a living. 

    - People start bragging about unbelievable returns. 

    - Firms start marketing promises that are unrealistic and often dangerous.

In today’s podcast we discuss the notion that if it’s too good to be true, then it often is.

There are two things in the market that cause great fear. They're referred to as "known unknowns" and "unknown unknowns". What do we mean by this and how do you prepare for them?

How would you answer the following question – what makes you more nervous?

 - a 30%+ stock market crash

 - Inflation

The answer to this question may surprise you. In fact, most people answer it incorrectly.

In today’s podcast we discuss fear and its impact on investing. There’s a part of our brain that helps us survive. It’s also the part of the brain that can cause us to make the worst decisions.

In a year where fear of the market, and a fear for your life has dominated the headlines, this may be the most important podcast you listen to all year long.
