Episode notes
Markets Price In Expected News
- Market prices already reflect expected economic news, so new reports rarely change long-term valuations.
- Stock markets are forward-looking pricing machines that react only to unexpected information.
Market Led The 2007–2009 Recession
- The US stock market began declining before the official recession start and bottomed months before the recession was declared over.
- Investors didn't know recession dates until years later, showing markets lead economic data.
Invest Rather Than Wait For A Dip
- Avoid sitting in cash waiting for a market dip because markets rise more often than they fall.
- Prefer lump-sum investing for higher expected returns, but use dollar-cost averaging if you need behavioral comfort.
