If you've ever heard stock tips at the water cooler at work or from a Reddit forum or from your friends, what should you do? Signe and I give our own "tips" to avoid making the wrong investment decisions when it comes to stock tips.

Signe and Michelle discuss some of their observations among streaming companies, including Netflix, Disney, Paramount, and Warner Bros Discovery. Signe expressed how she understands the content business. Michelle remarked about how many streamers are struggling to be profitable, and the stock market is punishing several such as Comcast and Roku. Which streamer will rule them all remains to be seen!

What is Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) and how can it help you to invest? Signe and Michelle talk about the pros and cons of DCA where you contribute a fixed amount of money to your investing account and invest in stocks or mutual funds on a consistent basis.

Whether you DCA or go another investing route like lump sum contributions and tranching into a particular stock, you should stick to a strategy for a long time without jumping in and out of the market. Most of all, try not to regret your decisions for the best outcomes.
