There is virtually nothing that has happened in the last 12 months that I would consider abnormal or unprecedented. The 30% pullback in the NASDAQ or 20% in the S&P, that's the kind of thing that will happen every five to 10 years as an investor. If you are an investor like Tom and I who want to be investing for the next 30, 40, 50 years, that's not a possibility.
Everything feels unprecedented if you don’t study history, and 2022 wasn’t unique for the stock market. Morgan Housel is the best-selling author of “The Psychology of Money”. He joined Motley Fool co-founder and CEO Tom Gardner for a conversation about:
- Why cash is a better hedge against inflation than many believe - Parallels between the 2022 stock market and the dot-com bust of the early 2000s - What Tesla investors can learn from Starbucks’ past decline Companies discussed: BRK.A, BRK.B, TSLA, SBUX Host: Tom Gardner Guest: Morgan Housel Producer: Ricky Mulvey Engineers: Tim Sparks, Rick Engdahl
