In this episode of Stocks In Translation, Yahoo Finance markets and data editor Jared Blikre and producer Sydnee Fried welcome Demetri Kofinas, the host of Hidden Forces podcast, for a deep dive into the concept of financial nihilism.Coined by Kofinas in 2019, the term "financial nihilism" refers to the belief that financial planning, investing, or wealth building is meaningless or futile. Kofinas’ philosophy of financial nihilism arises from the growing disconnect between price and value.“Markets are about finding the intersection between those two points and trying to buy below, at a price below value,” Kofinas. “Eventually the thing appreciates in line with expectations or underlying value.”Twice a week, Stocks In Translation cuts through the market mayhem, noisy numbers and hyperbole to give you the information you need to make the right trade for your portfolio.Find this episode's transcripts and more episodes of Stocks in Translation at https://finance.yahoo.com/videos/series/stocks-in-translation/Thoughts?

In this episode of Stocks In Translation, Yahoo Finance markets and data editor Jared Blikre and producer Sydnee Fried welcome Joe Brusuelas, RSM chief economist, to the vodcast to discuss regime change and the post-pandemic economy.In finance, a regime change refers to a “major shift in economic conditions such as interest rates, inflation or growth, often triggered by policy changes or structural economic shifts,” said Blikre. As Donald Trump transitions back into the White House for his second term, Brusuelas said the president-elect’s administration will focus on narrowing the deficit. However, there are contradictions associated with Trump’s approach to economic populism. Trump aims to lower taxes and increase government spending, which leads to higher deficits and debt. “The issue is that Trump and his policymakers will want to narrow the trade deficit. They want to narrow the current account deficit,” Brusuelas said. “But you can't do that when you get a stronger dollar because lower taxes mean more disposable income, and you attract more imports.”Twice a week, Stocks In Translation cuts through the market mayhem, noisy numbers and hyperbole to give you the information you need to make the right trade for your portfolio.Find this episode's transcripts and more episodes of Stocks in Translation at https://finance.yahoo.com/videos/series/stocks-in-translation/Thoughts?

Risk is all around us. Whether it’s the real world or the investment world we can’t escape it forever.In this episode of Stocks In Translation, Yahoo Finance Markets and Data Editor Jared Blikre and Producer Sydnee Fried welcome back a friend of the show, Steve Sosnick, chief strategist at Interactive Brokers.This episode’s word of the day is risk: the chance that an investment’s actual return will differ from the expected return, potentially resulting in financial loss.While it’s true that the market generally goes “up and to the left” over time, Sosnick believes that people often “get very focused on reward” without fully understanding the associated risks. “I think when you get into an environment where things are a little frothy, people lose sight of that,” says Sosnick. “Risk is always out there. And risk has a nasty way of biting you at exactly the wrong times.”Yahoo Finance's Stocks in Translation, with master statistician Jared Blikre and voice of the people Sydnee Fried, is your guide with essential conversation cutting through the market mayhem, noisy numbers and hyperbole to give you the information you need to make the right trade for your portfolio.Find this episode's transcripts and more episodes of Stocks in Translation at https://finance.yahoo.com/videos/series/stocks-in-translation/Thoughts?
