Collin Martin with Charles Schwab says Japan yields moving higher can pull bond investors out of the U.S. and into international markets. He explains why it creates a long-term headwind for the stock market. However, Nathan Peterson still expects December to be a stronger month in the U.S. after November's selling curbed historic expectations.

Recorded from our new home on Bainbridge Island and released on Thanksgiving, this episode is equal parts gratitude and practical investing help. I open with my annual tradition of writing a fresh Thanksgiving list—people, communities, and institutions that have shaped my life and this work. I'm especially thankful for you, the DIY investors who keep showing up to learn, ask thoughtful questions, and hopefully staying the course.I also share appreciation for the resources that support disciplined investing—Morningstar, the Bogleheads community, and the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII). After a recent AAII presentation (over 150 attendees), we ran out of time for a live Q&A. I promised to respond to every legitimate question, so this episode kicks off a multi-part series answering them in depth.Here are the first 12 AAII questions covered in today's episode:(9:42) What alterations in portfolio construction do you recommend in transition from accumulation to distribution in order to maximize diversification of uncorrelated assets, safe withdrawal rates, and spending? Table h2a (21:21) I'm a huge fan of your U.S. two-fund portfolio. Why is diversification between large-cap growth and small-cap value so important, while diversification between VTSAX and AVUS (within the same asset class) is not? Should we diversify fund selection within the same asset class? Table K2b(26:49) Have you considered creating a quilt chart for the Ultimate Buy-and-Hold portfolios with a 70/30 U.S./international split? Table K1a and H2a and H2b(32:04) You appear to have avoided any mention of mid-cap. Should we be ignoring mid-cap funds?(33:35) What do you think about adding alternative investments to the portfolio (for example, managed futures)?(38:39) Are your recommendations for everyone, or does the game change when you have a pension for life?(43:07) I was fighting with the Zoom link and arrived 25 minutes into the presentation. Will a video recording be available to participants?(44:08) What would you expect the difference between the S&P 500 cap-weighted index (VFINX)and the S&P 500 equal-weighted index (VADAX) to be?(49:53) The four-fund portfolios are equal-weighted across their asset classes, which results in a value tilt overall. Why weigh them equally?(54:35) One might think that adding international large-cap growth and international small-cap value to the two-fund approach would improve results. Does international allocation mainly reduce volatility/drawdown length, or also increase returns? H2a and H2b(56:26) Can you buy DFA and Avantis funds at Charles Schwab?(58:40) What should you do if you have a lump sum to invest today, but current market highs make entry uncomfortable? https://awealthofcommonsense.com/2025/11/do-we-need-a-long-bear-market/

Charles Schwab's Collin Martin says investors are weighing some Fed governor comments over others. He explains the "dispersion" happening as the outcome for interest rate cuts remains unclear for December's meeting. Collin adds that an October "data void" makes it even harder for the FOMC to reach a decision. That said, Collin sees the labor market serving more importance to the Fed's path forward. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Charles Schwab's Liz Ann Sonders called the September jobs a "mixed bag" report without having October's data to follow it up. She notes that an economy heading in an uncertain direction, paired with a retail trader-dominated market, will create "whipsaw" action for the foreseeable future. Mike Townsend adds to the lack of economic clarity creating a troubling situation for the Fed's interest Rate decision in December. He argues there won't be total economic clarity until January. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

After the SPX bounced off its 50-day SMA multiple times before breaking Monday into Tuesday, Nate makes the case that an A.I.
