In this episode we answer emails from Jimmy, John and MyContactInfo.  We discuss the foibles of trying to make investment decisions based on news, politics or macro-economic events, Joel Greenblatt's investment methodologies re value-weighting from 2010 and where there are today, and learn some more from Professor Aswath Damodaran about why you cannot use market valuation metrics and P/E ratios as a basis for decision-making in investing.

And THEN we our go through our weekly portfolio reviews of the seven sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.
