Episode notes
Market Concentration Drives Headlines
- Markets are concentrated: a few large companies are driving most gains.
- Concentration raises headlines but doesn't make short-term timing predictable.
Market Predictions Fail Even For Experts
- No one can reliably predict short-term market moves, not even elite investors.
- Markets reflect complex human psychology and adaptive dynamics, so predictions fail repeatedly.
Prioritise Consistent Investing Over Timing
- Invest consistently and stay invested rather than trying to time tops and bottoms.
- Historical crashes show long-term holding and reinvesting dividends outperforms waiting on the sidelines.
