With headlines pointing to rising inflation, increasing unemployment, and growing global instability, many investors are left asking the same question: What should I actually do right now?

In this solo episode, Amy Sylvis walks through a powerful thought experiment grounded in history, specifically the stagflation era of the 1970s, to help you think more clearly about today’s economic environment. Instead of reacting to fear or noise, she breaks down what actually performed well during past uncertainty, what didn’t, and how she is personally positioning her portfolio today.

From gold and commodities to workforce housing and portfolio diversification, this episode offers a practical lens for thinking about wealth preservation and growth amid an uncertain future. If you’ve been wondering how to navigate today’s market without panic, this conversation gives you a grounded starting point.
