    🎯 Grab the free bingo card link here and play along with us! We're hitting pause to reflect, reset, and re-energize for the new quarter — both in the stock market and in our personal growth. We revisit the goals we set with our signature S-M-I-L-E bingo card (yes, “Embrace the Chaos” really delivered last quarter), then break down what actually happened in the markets, including how tariff talk, falling confidence, and a shift in market leadership are shaping Q2.

    84. Remix: When Yields Speak Louder Than Headlines

    Lately, the market’s been moving over 1,000 points a day. We call this volatility fueled by uncertainty. We’ve been talking about falling yields, rising rates, and now tariffs are back in the headlines… but what if the real story is in the credit market? In this episode, we’re replaying one of our favorite breakdowns: bond vigilantes — who they are, how they got their name, and the role they’ve played in shaping market history. And with everything happening right now, it’s more relevant than ...

    83. How Tariffs Actually Impact the Markets

    You voted, we delivered — and barely slept. The market is TARIFF-IED! 🙃 In this episode, we interrupt our regularly scheduled Fed deep dive to break down the 2025 Trump tariffs shock and what it means for your portfolio. It's a tug-of-trade-war and self-directed investors shouldn't try to time the markets, but should be informed, prepared, and diversified. You’ll learn what tariffs are, how these sweeping new tariffs are fueling inflation and shaking up the job market while puttin...

    82. Wait…That’s What Caused Inflation? The Fed Pt. 1

    If you’ve been hearing about inflation but aren’t totally sure what it means—or why everything suddenly got more expensive after the pandemic—this episode is for you. We break down what inflation actually is and explain the real reasons prices went up: broken supply chains, government stimulus checks, rising wages, and energy shocks. It wasn’t just one thing—it was everything, all at once. But here’s why this matters now: Fed Chair Jerome Powell is bringing back the word “transitory” to descr...

    81. Corrections, Bear Markets & the Sentiment Disconnect: Are We Headed for a Lost Decade?

    In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most important (and misunderstood) topics in the stock market: what happens when things start to go south. We break down corrections, bear markets, and recessions—and how to tell the difference between them—while also exploring whether we could be on the verge of another "lost decade" for investors. We also take a closer look at the current disconnect between how people feel about the economy (sentiment) and what the numbers are actually showing. ...

    80. What A Recession Is and How the Business Cycle Informs Us

    🚨 Recession Watch: What’s Happening in the Markets? 🚨 Major banks are raising red flags about a potential recession, pointing to uncertainty around trade, tariffs, and inflation. If there’s one thing the market hates, it’s uncertainty—it fuels volatility. As of March 13, 2025, the S&P 500 has officially entered correction territory, meaning it has dropped 10% from its recent highs. Corrections like this are a normal part of market cycles. 🔍 Looking Back: This episode was recorded on Septe...

    78. Lessons from Warren Buffett’s Annual Letter to Shareholders

    We are diving into Warren Buffett’s latest shareholder letter for 2024—so you don’t have to! We’ll break down his biggest takeaways in plain English for you: why Berkshire Hathaway is sitting on a mountain of cash, what Buffett’s recent stock moves say about the market, and how his long-term investing mindset has helped him beat Wall Street for decades.
