Episode 319:   The stock market has fallen for three straight weeks.  There are mixed signals that this selloff could simply be a Rotation out of overbought Tech stocks and into Value and Cyclicals.  On the other hand, with over 41% of the S&P 500 already in a Bear market, maybe the Correction has just begun. ------------------------------------------------------

Episode 317:  The national debt is at astronomical levels, the deficit is larger than tax revenues, the Chinese are dumping Treasuries, the FED is creating trillions of dollars out of thin air…I’m not concerned.  The US can handle the current debt load. In this episode, I discussed the realities and the myths of the national debt.  My solution is to stop worrying about things outside of your influence and focus on building your personal wealth.  You do that by owning appreciating assets and not worry about the monetary unit of measure. ------------------------------------------------------

Episode 316:  The market took a big tumble today.  Is this just a normal September swoon?  Or are we headed for a more drastic correction?    ------------------------------------------------------

Episode 315:  In this episode I celebrate the 6th anniversary of the Wealthsteading Podcast with a special story about my grandfather’s remarkable life.  He was an amazing man that faced insurmountable obstacles but he never faltered.  As an immigrant, in poverty, fighting through WWI trench warfare, surviving as a prisoner of war, enduring the Great Depression…he overcame every obstacle that was placed before him.  His life is a legacy of hard work, resilience, perseverance, and faith. ------------------------------------------------------

Episode 314:  The Market has been incredibly resilient over the past month but I believe it could easily stumble into a rapid decline if investor sentiment turns sour.  In this episode I discuss the rationale for prudent investing and give specific examples of why I recently purchasing Tyson Foods and also lessons learned from swing trading the Great Recession of 2008. -----

Episode 313:  The COVID death toll is over 100K, unemployment is nearing 20%, and protesters are rioting and burning the cities…yet the stock market keeps going up. Will this rebound rally continue?  Or are we headed for a major downturn this summer?  I’m concerned that just as the market was oversold with COVID hysteria, now there’s irrational exuberance about the re-opening of the economy. -----

Episode 312:  TRIGGER WARNING:  This episode may offend some listeners…especially those of you that ask DUMB questions.  Bottom line…this episode focuses on the fundamentals of building wealth: Earn/Save/Invest. -----

Episode 311:  In this episode I discuss how I’m planning to re-balance my portfolio to take advantage of what I believe will be an inevitable recovery. -----

Episode 310:  In this episode I compare Covid-19 to a neutron bomb that kills people but doesn’t destroy infrastructure.  The devastation is massive, but short-lived because CONSUMPTION is DEFERRED, not DESTROYED. -----

Episode 309:  Dividend paying stocks keep producing an income, even when the stock market is down. -----

Episode 308:  The Wuhan coronavirus COVID-19 is spreading outside of China.  I’m not sure why that’s a surprise to anyone.  But before you panic, let’s put things in perspective.  COVID-19 is a virus, not Stage IV cancer.  I viewed today’s volatility as a buying opportunity.  Listen to find out why. -----

Episode 307:  Wuhan coronavirus is still in the news but the S&P 500 is setting record highs.  WHY?  There are a number of reasons this market is so resilient- short covering, Chinese monetary policy, and most importantly the growth and profitability of the Tech sector. -----
