 Wall Street noise is loud—Barry Ritholtz shows you How Not to Invest. In this episode, we cut through models, headlines, and hype to focus on the few decisions that actually compound. Barry shares a practical framework for decision-making grounded in behavioral finance: why models are “wrong but useful,” how to build a checklist to filter signal from noise, and why broad indexing should anchor most portfolios. We dig into direct indexing for tax management, the attention economy's impact on investors, and the real effects of tariffs and Fed timing on markets and Main Street.
