Episode 19: Shifting to Conservative – Market Timing or Long-Term Strategy?


Listen Later

In this episode, co-host Chris Tabish opens up about his growing urge to pull money out of the stock market and adopt a more conservative approach. What starts as a discussion on potential market timing evolves into a deeper reflection on whether this is truly a tactical move or a fundamental strategic shift in his investment philosophy.

We also dive into Warren Buffett's famous 10-year wager against hedge fund manager Ted Seides of Protégé Partners – the bet that a simple S&P 500 index fund would outperform a selection of elite hedge funds (after fees). Spoiler: Buffett won decisively, highlighting the power of low-cost, passive investing over high-fee active management. A timely lesson as we debate risk, patience, and staying the course.
