Stock market FOMO is real: Here's how to position your portfolio

The stock market is climbing higher, but it’s not fundamentals leading the charge; it’s FOMO. In this episode of Stocks in Translation, Ritholtz Wealth Management chief market strategist Callie Cox joins host Jared Blikre and Yahoo Finance Senior Reporter Allie Canal to discuss investor psychology, specifically market fears, and how it is helping drive markets to record highs despite weak fundamentals. From FOMO (fear of missing out) to FOJI (fear of jumping in), Cox explains how these feelings are impacting market sentiment as well as investors' portfolios. Cox also takes a look at our current “skinny bull market" and how investors should be mindful of the market amid looming tariffs, inflation, and rising unemployment claims.
