About this episode
(9/26/23) Some market volatility due to quarter-end rebalancing of portfolios. Some downside risk remains. Markets are in search of a catalyst, and trading at the mercy of rebalancing activity. Compounding Market Returns: Mythical or real? Albert Einstein called compound interest the 8th Wonder of the World. It's not the same with market returns (charts for illustration). Calculating yield and coupons for bond investors; understanding investing dynamics and what drives returns. Stocks vs Bonds vs Real Estate: companies can fail, but land will always have value. Life in a mid-century neighborhood. Examining the realities of a government shutdown: Don't let the news media fool you (or scare you)! Non-discretionary payments will continue, and a shutdown will not cause a recession. Avoid the noise in the media. Fatalism vs Optimism.
