When markets soar, investors face a subtle but dangerous temptation: trading wisdom for excitement.With headlines touting record highs and optimism running wild, it's easy to get swept up in the momentum. But is now the time to double down—or to take a step back and exercise caution? Today, Mark Biller joins us to unpack the dangers of investing with emotion instead of wisdom.Mark Biller is Executive Editor and Senior Portfolio Manager at Sound Mind Investing, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. Bull Market Optimism: Proceed with CautionThe stock market has staged a remarkable comeback since spring, and many investors are feeling hopeful about the year ahead. But while optimism is natural, there's a fine line between healthy confidence and dangerous overconfidence.Just a few months ago, fear dominated the market. Now, investor sentiment has swung in the opposite direction—toward excessive optimism. History shows us that both extremes can lead to poor decision-making. Just as fear prompts panic-selling in downturns, overconfidence during bull markets can drive people to take unnecessary risks.The late 1990s provide a clear example. The dot-com bubble fueled euphoric investing in internet companies, but when the bubble burst, enormous wealth evaporated. While the internet did transform the world, many early investors paid a steep price for ignoring caution.The Risk of Projecting the PresentOptimism in the long term is typically rewarded—stocks have trended upward for more than a century despite wars, recessions, and downturns. But short-term overconfidence is dangerous. Since October 2023, the stock market has gained about 60%—roughly six years of typical returns compressed into less than two. It's unrealistic to assume such momentum will continue indefinitely.In environments like this, investors often fall into two traps:Doubling down on every dip. Rather than seeing pullbacks as a chance to pause, many rush to “buy the dip” without considering long-term goals. Abandoning diversification. When some holdings lag behind, it's tempting to dump them in favor of high-flyers like gold or crypto. This shortsightedness often backfires.Diversification: A Biblical PrincipleKing Solomon offered timeless wisdom in Ecclesiastes 11:2: “Give a portion to seven, or even to eight, for you know not what disaster may happen on earth.” Diversification is, at its core, an act of humility. Since no one knows the future, spreading investments across asset classes is the most reliable defense against both downturns and emotional decision-making.While diversification may feel “boring” during bull markets, it provides stability that helps investors stay committed to their plan when volatility inevitably returns.A strong investment strategy accounts for risk tolerance, life stage, and long-term goals. For a younger investor, this might mean a higher allocation to stocks, consistent 401(k) contributions, and the discipline to stay invested through ups and downs. For others, it may involve gradual adjustments, such as including gold or bonds. The key is making changes based on thoughtful, long-term reasoning—not fear of missing out.Confidence vs. OverconfidenceHealthy confidence comes from setting reasonable goals, understanding fundamentals, and staying the course. Overconfidence, on the other hand, assumes you can predict what's coming next—a trap no investor avoids for long.Optimism has its place, but unchecked euphoria can cloud judgment. By remembering history, practicing diversification, and committing to a steady long-term plan, investors can avoid the pitfalls of emotional decision-making and pursue lasting financial fruitfulness.If you'd like to learn more about becoming a Sound Mind Investing (SMI) member, you can visit them at SoundMindInvesting.org. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 72, still running my business, and I have both an IRA and a Roth that I've never touched.

In this episode of Money Meets Medicine, Justin Harvey and Dr. Jimmy Turner tackle a classic investing question: do high-earning physicians really need bonds in their portfolio?They break down:Why Jimmy avoids bonds (less than 5% of his portfolio) and instead leans heavily on diversified index funds.When bonds can make sense, such as reducing volatility for investors nearing retirement or with specific cash needs.How bonds actually work: creditworthiness, yields, coupons, and the role of interest rate sensitivity (a.k.a. duration).The risks of “safe” bonds, including how inflation and rising interest rates can erode returns and undermine their role as a portfolio stabilizer.Practical strategies: bond ladders, TIPS (Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities), short-duration ETFs, and asset location (where bonds belong in taxable vs. retirement accounts).Are you a physician looking for own-occupation disability insurance from an agency you can actually trust?

Ned Davis Research's Chief Global Investment Strategist Tim Hayes joins us to break down NDR's “360°” weight-of-the-evidence framework—how price, breadth, sentiment, macro and valuation fit together—and what those signals are saying right now. We dig into why he still classifies this as a secular bull market with rising secular-bear risks, how to separate real breadth thrusts from dead-cat bounces, the evolving bond/equity correlation, mega-cap concentration risk, the case for value/EM in a defensively rotating tape, and why gold's secular and cyclical trends remain compelling.

We've misunderstood each other. I always thought fulfilling responsibilities was enough, but I neglected your feelings."Zh: 伟叹了一口气，好像放下了什么心事：“我也有不成熟的地方，我愿意多和你们交流。”En: Wei sighed, as if letting go of some burden, "I also have my immature moments. I'm willing to communicate more with you."Zh: 小看到两人终于开始对话，露出了笑容：“我们一起过中秋节，好吗？正好爸爸妈妈也在。”En: Xiao saw the two finally starting to talk and smiled, "Let's spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together, shall we? Mom and dad are also here."Zh: 最后，三人坐在长城的一块大石头上，分享月饼。En: Finally, the three of them sat on a large stone on the Great Wall, sharing mooncakes.Zh: 莲和伟把过去的不快都留在了长城，决心重新开始。En: Lian and Wei left their past grievances behind at the Great Wall, determined to start afresh.Zh: 月亮渐渐升起，带来了节日的光辉。En: The moon gradually rose, bringing the glow of the festival.Zh: 空气中弥漫着淡淡的甜香，那是团圆的味道。En: The air was filled with a faint sweet aroma, the scent of reunion.Zh: 这一天，他们不仅重新找回了彼此，也找回了家的温暖。En: On this day, they not only reconnected with each other but also found the warmth of family.Zh: 莲更加理解弟弟，愿意倾听他的想法。En: Lian understood her brother better and was willing to listen to his thoughts.Zh: 伟则感受到了被接受和认可的喜悦。En: Wei felt the joy of being accepted and recognized.Zh: 小看到哥哥姐姐和好如初，欢快地笑着，她知道，这个中秋节，他们是一家人。En: Xiao saw her brother and sister reconcile and laughed happily, knowing that this Mid-Autumn Festival, they were truly a family.

Don and Tom break down the overhyped expectations around recent market returns, referencing Jason Zweig's analysis of 230 years of stock market data. They emphasize that spending and saving habits matter more than chasing 15% returns, and explain why realistic planning using a 3–6% real return assumption over 30-year rolling periods is more prudent. They also tackle questions about RMD strategies from Vanguard IRAs and the TSP's F and G bond funds.

Fiscal policy shifts, from taxes to tariffs, are steering global capital and trade flows. The US, for instance, is attracting investments despite the tariff headlines—illustrating how the impact of these policies continues to evolve. In a dynamic policy environment, taxes and tariffs could create new implications for asset classes, sectors, and market structures.  This episode of The Outthinking Investor explores macro implications from taxes and tariffs, how policy changes are shaping the way investors allocate capital, and why economic growth could be more resilient against higher tariffs than in the past.  Our guests are: Douglas Holtz-Eakin, President of the American Action Forum and former Director of the Congressional Budget Office Kimberly Clausing, professor of tax law and policy at UCLA School of Law and former lead economist in the US Treasury's Office of Tax Policy Jeffrey Young, Head of Investment Strategy for PGIM's quant team Do you have any comments, suggestions, or topics you would like us to cover?

David Giroux, chief investment officer at T. Rowe Price — named Morningstar's Outstanding Portfolio Manager for 2025 for his work at T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation — says his allocation fund is holding near its highest levels ever of bonds, specifically intermediate fixed-income, largely because he thinks stocks are overvalued and real growth will remain hard to find. Giroux — who has beaten the average peer in his Morningstar asset class for 17 consecutive years, the longest streak in the entire fund industry — has long disdained investing in foreign stocks and says the rally that 2025 has produced overseas is an anomaly and that no one "should ever feel a need to own an inferior index just for diversification purposes." In the wide-ranging interview, Giroux says that the Magnificent Seven stocks have actually been the Mag 6, plus Tesla, saying that the car maker has no business being in the portfolio of leading securities. David Trainer, president of New Constructs, put Klarna in The Danger Zone in April, when the buy-now, pay-later financial firm was attempting to go public but put off the process in the face of the market's drop after "Liberation Day." Now the company is back attempting an initial public offering, and that brings them back under Trainer's scrutiny again, before they ever get launched as a stock. Natalia Brown, chief consumer affairs and creditor relations officer for National Debt Relief, discusses the firm's survey showing that six in 10 American parents are going into debt for their children. She talks about what parents are foregoing for their own lives to help the kids, and what they are paying for that puts them into debt.

A York County man is being charged with assault but not with a hate crime after attacking an L-G-B-T-Q community member. Pennsylvania’s laws do not include protections against hate directed at people for their gender identity or sexual orientation, though Democratic lawmakers are trying to change that. Environmental groups and the PA Department of Environmental Protection have reached a $2.6 million settlement with a plastic manufacturer for polluting Raccoon Creek in Beaver County, northwest of Pittsburgh. And a deeper dive: In our increasingly online world, lots of people struggle today to find connections with other people. But one western Pennsylvania man has found a way to use the internet to connect with his extended family - thousands of them.

Focus on what is real, no matter how hard it can be to believe! Otherwise, you become a sucker or worse, a slave, to the delusion someone else wants you to believe. Use the lessons we teach every day to accurately chart any stock, commodity, ETF and cryptocurrencies. We give you daily, real life lessons with the five ETFs we track: S&P 500, NASDAQ 100, 20-Year Treasury Bonds, Gold and Bitcoin. We have all the tools you need to learn how to trade.
