  • Current Market Turbulence | Ep92
    Aug 15 2024
    Today, on the Market Call Show, we examine strategies for navigating volatile market conditions. Recent turbulence, driven by factors like the global sell-off, tech declines, and yen carry trade unwinding, has intensified volatility. We dissect the economic and geopolitical influences intensifying volatility. We illustrate the multifaceted challenges facing investors through examples such as NVIDIA's production issues and looming stagflation fears. Additionally, we consider election-year uncertainties and their impacts on sentiment. Yet amidst shifting seas, opportunity remains—with prudent planning. Given overvaluation concerns, we stress diversifying beyond tech and maintaining awareness of indicators and policy shifts. For those nearing retirement, tailored strategies emphasize balancing risk through diversified equity allocation over heavy bonds. Well-informed risk management and acknowledging market cycles also feature prominently. P.S. Whenever you’re ready… here are 3 ways I can help you with YOUR investing and wealth planning advice: 1.

Hello, this is Louis Llanes for the Market Call Show. I want to talk a little bit about the headlines recently. A lot of people are asking me questions about what do you think about all this craziness in the market? In fact, I've had several people email me or text me or even as I'm walking down the hallway at the office, saying, how are you holding up with this market? And I had a conversation with a client who once was a stockbroker back in the day, a very sophisticated client and we were talking about the markets and we were talking about ups and downs and the difference between certain investors and how they deal with ups and downs. So I wanted to spend a little bit of time just talking about the major headlines that we've seen recently, that's affecting the stock market. And once I kind of get through that, I want to kind of give you my take on it and then just talk about what I think are kind of the lessons to get from the recent headlines and then also, in particular for people who are nearing retirement which is a lot of people who are watching this podcast or are already retired what this means. And it's just some reminders of some basic things to think about. When these headlines come about, they really bring certain aspects of fundamental investing to light. So first of all, let's talk a little bit about the recent headlines. So we had a global market sell-off. So, like on August 5th, the S&P 500 experienced a big drop. It was down like 3% and it was marking like the worst day we saw since December 2022. And that was part of a broader global market sell-off and the Japanese market had suffered the biggest one-day drop that it saw since 1987. The biggest one-day drop that it saw since 1987. In fact, it brings back. I remember the day that the market crash happened. Actually, I went into a small brokerage firm that day. I was in college at that time and I was studying finance and I walked in and I remember the branch manager of this brokerage firm was kind of in a panic and he grabbed all the brokers and they had a big open floor and he said do you realize what happened in the Japanese market? It had a massive sell-off. Today is going to be an ugly day and I just remember how everybody was running around. But what's interesting is our stock market did not follow through on the downside to the same extent as 1987. So a lot of people are making kind of a correlation between 1987 and today and really they're very different scenarios. So anyway, so there was a lot of concerns about economic growth and overvaluation of tech stocks, which I have been talking about ...

  • Staying Rational in Emotional Markets | Ep91
    Aug 1 2024
    In this episode of the Market Call Show, we're discussing mastering long-term investing and balancing risk and return through strategies like adjusting asset allocation over time. With large-cap sell offs recently, we highlight opportunities in small-cap stocks and look at the fundamental analysis of these businesses. Drawing my experience as a portfolio manager, I'll share some of the tools I've used, like quantitative analysis that can help safeguard your hard-earned capital before uncovering economic sectors with untapped potential, such as property and casualty insurance. Wrapping up, we dive into way you can optimize outcomes by staying grounded in market turbulence, making increment adjustments, and embracing diversification across sectors and investment styles for stability. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS I discuss the importance of long-term compounding and protecting investments during market volatility, advocating for a balance between steadier and more volatile investments in portfolios.We talk about recent market trends indicate an overvaluation of large-cap companies, suggesting that small caps may offer promising opportunities for investors.Emphasizing the significance of risk management, I draw on insights from my book, The Financial Freedom Blueprint, to highlight the necessity of sound economic principles and fundamental analysis.Investment expert Jim Rogers is cited, stressing that no single asset class is perfect and that a thorough risk assessment is essential for aligning investment goals with risk tolerance.I explore the strategic investment approach within the property and casualty insurance sector, recommending a blend of active and passive strategies for a diversified, all-weather portfolio.The importance of probabilistic thinking and incremental strategy adjustments is highlighted as a means to navigate the financial landscape successfully.Small-cap companies are identified as having rising potential, with quantitative analysis being a useful tool for building well-balanced portfolios.Fundamental metrics and scoring methodologies are recommended for better investment decision-making, rather than relying solely on indexing.I stress the need for a steady pace in investing, focusing on long-term fundamentals rather than reacting to market volatility.

Here I am going to be discussing and riffing on something that I haven't talked about in a while, and that's protecting your money. Today I was looking at the market and we saw a pretty good sell-off one of the worst sell-offs we've seen in quite a while and actually what's happening is to be expected. It's something that I've been talking about. I've been talking about how the valuation of the larger cap companies many of the companies that have been the darlings have really gotten out of whack, really, and we're starting to see a correction. I was talking to a friend of mine and I was telling him about how I saw small caps being a relatively good opportunity. I think there's a lot of skepticism out there sometimes when you have these big locations in the market, and it's understandable, because it's easier to follow the crowd. Following the crowd is something that we naturally have an instinct to do, especially when it comes to investing. One of the worst things that we ever want to do is to be in a situation where we feel like we're missing out or kind of the phone feelings that we can have that really create a feeling of angst when we see certain investments going up One of the things that's interesting about the investment world, at least in the public markets, is that you see marking up and increases in values happening slowly, and then, whenever you have a correction, it tends to be quicker and some people feel surprised by that. So, as a long-term investor who is focused on the economics of investments for the long run, based on cash flows, we can have periods of time where there's a dislocation or there's a disconnect between what we're seeing in the markets and what sound fundamental analysis ...
