Buckle up - because things are getting interesting in the markets. In this first episode of our Tempo Temperature Checks mini-series, we’re joined by investing expert Zoe Wallis from Tempo to unpack what’s happening in the U.S. economy, why Trump’s policies are shaking things up, and how it all impacts your investments. Should you be panicking? Selling everything? Stuffing cash under your mattress? (Spoiler: No.) Zoe breaks down the art of staying diversified, thinking long-term, and making smart money moves - even in the midst of political chaos. Plus, we talk Trump’s crypto empire (yep, that’s a thing), the real impact of tariffs, and whether investing is just glorified punting (spoiler: also no). Enjoy, and stay tuned for next week’s deep dive into investing in AI!
