Mike's journey from a trader to an independent investor is nothing short of an adventure and offers valuable lessons on the importance of having a strategy that suits you.

Get ready for a deep-dive into credit spreads, earnings growth, and market risk.

Misaligned valuations and their impact on the market if earnings growth fails to meet projections is another thrilling topic we tackle.
