Ep 218: What to do with your money when the world feels unstable


Listen Later

This week’s episode is a rare one that we recorded the same day it’s released, because… well, life is happening fast.

After taking a much-needed break, we returned to headlines that changed the tone of the summer and the temperature of the market. In this episode, we’re talking about how to manage your investments during times of global instability and uncertainty. This isn’t advice or hype, it’s our perspective, grounded in history, patterns, and what actually works.

We’re not here to guess what happens next. Our goal is to inspire you to think better, especially when everything feels chaotic. 

We cover: 

  • How market reactions to conflict usually play out (with receipts)
  • The difference between bad news and uncertainty, and why markets care more about the latter
  • Why mimicking “insider” trades or reacting to media spin is riskier than it looks
  • The 3 big reasons why trying to capitalize on global conflict backfires
  • What you can do if you’re tempted to make a move anyway

Whether you’re just getting started with investing or feeling anxious about protecting your gains, this episode is designed to keep you cool when the headlines are anything but.
