On FOX Business I cover what investors should really keep an eye on, and it's not the war. bit.ly/4rCvGv1

The Fed targest 2 to 3% inflation. That's a myth - or worse, a lie. Anyone living in the real world over the past five years knows that price increases have been much higher than that.

If you want to master something, prepare to teach it.

@LizClaman @FoxBusiness Great to be with you today!

We need to be mindful rates may stay slightly higher for longer, Meera Pandit says @FoxBusiness @PeterMallouk foxbusiness.com/video/63911441…

The market has had a negative return about 1 in every 4 years. You can expect a drop of over 10% every other year. You can expect a drop of over 20% about every four years. Successful investors know this. If you can’t accept it, the stock market isn’t for you.

The stock market is the opposite of a casino. The longer you play, the higher the odds you win.

Over the last 75 years, the average intra-year market drop has been 14%. If you are overly stressed out about the current 5% drawdown, the stock market isn’t for you. Downside volatility is the price investors pay for long-term outperformance.

@Whizbids You say you want a revolution, well you know…

@PeterMallouk Every late-empire economy concentrates at the top before it breaks. Rome. Ottoman. Hapsburg. The data always looks strong until the currency confesses 📜

This is 100% completely unsustainable as a society. Nearly 50% of all consumer spending now comes from the top 10% of earners. The bottom 80%? Their share keeps falling. This is why the economy can look strong in the data while millions of people feel like they're falling behind.

Simple but hard…

Big Tech in bear market territory... Amazon -20% Tesla -22% Meta - 23% Palantir -28% Netflix -29% Microsoft -29% Oracle -55%

The truth: No one is thinking about you nearly as much as you think. They’re busy thinking about themselves. So stop comparing, stop worrying about their opinions, and focus on your goals.

Appreciate what you have...

One thing I’ve learned is any lesson you refuse to learn will repeat itself until you do.

“We only give a couple of instructions to people when they go to work for us. One of them is to think like an owner. And the second one is to just tell us the bad news immediately.” – Warren Buffett

I think about this quote all the time...

The biggest risk in investing isn’t volatility. It’s a short time horizon. Worst S&P 500 annualized returns since 1928: 1 year: -44% 5 years: -13% 10 years: -2% 20 years: +2% 30 years: +8% The longer you stay invested, the smaller the risk of a bad outcome.
