Episode notes
Rebuild After Losses With A Plan
- Develop a plan and re-enter markets gradually after losses instead of trying to time a single comeback.
- Use dollar-cost averaging and a clear allocation process to rebuild wealth over time.
Broader Market Participation Ahead
- Index-level gains may moderate in 2026 while broader participation outside mega-caps strengthens.
- Rotation under the surface suggests opportunity across market caps rather than a single-cohort rally.
Don't Miss The Biggest Rebound Days
- Stay invested rather than trying to exit entirely because missing the biggest rebound days erodes long-term returns.
- Avoid all-or-nothing timing moves during volatile markets to capture recovery rallies.
