Alkaisi has for the last decade acted as the vocal voice representing the CTV families. But he says his fight isn't just for the victims - rather it's for the country. Maan Alkaisi sat down with our reporter Nick Truebridge and cameraman Nate McKinnon.
Maria is back to join Julio in her first ITT Sound Off in 2021! They break down the latest with the Senate impeachment trial for former president Donald Trump and process just how horrifying the attack at the Capitol on Jan. 6th was. Maria and Julio also discuss the devastating reaches of white supremacy in the country from the Biden administration's deportation of Haitian immigrants to the recent wave of hate incidents and violence against the Asian-American community.ITT Staff Picks:One of the breakout stars of the Senate Impeachment trial was Rep. Stacey Plaskett of the U.S. Virgin Islands. She opened her presentation by saying: “I’ve learned throughout my life that preparation and truth can carry you far, can allow you to speak truth to power. I’ve learned that as a young Black girl growing up in the projects in Brooklyn, a housing community on St. Croix, sent to the most unlikeliest of settings, and now as an adult woman representing an island territory speaking to the U.S. Senate.”“Anti-Blackness is baked into the immigration system and ICE has merely operationalized it. In fact, the federal agency has spent Black History Month deporting Black immigrants," writes Tina Vasquez for Prism, "Since Feb. 1, over 500 Haitians have been deported in an effort to deport 1,800 to Haiti by mid-February.”Michelle Kim writes about the Anti-Asian Hate Crimes in the Medium Awaken Blog: “White supremacy wants us to remember the unhealed wounds we inflicted on each other, historical and ongoing anti-Blackness in the Asian community and anti-Asian incidents perpetrated by Black individuals, but not the stories of solidarity that have existed in equal measure, but are somehow left out of our history books and media coverage.”Photo credit: AP Photo/J.

Since Feb 2020, we've seen historic and unprecedented volatility in the Indian markets. We saw the fastest fall in the markets and also one of the fastest recoveries in the history of the Indian markets. All this was within a space of a few months. Surprisingly, we are seeing a sharp uptick in the number of new investors enter the markets, but the mistakes some of them are making are the same old ones. Over the past few months, we've had conversations with some of the most experienced participants in the markets to put this insanely volatile market phase in perspective. But we also realized that investors were lacking context on how to think about investing even before they put their first rupee to work. So we figured, there's no better time than this to do this. Given that Vidya has been interacting with investors for the better part of a decade in various capacities, we reached out to her and she graciously agreed to talk to us. In this conversation, Vidya talks to Prateek about: How to think about risk and reward when investing How to set goals and why a goal-based investing framework helps you invest better How to have returns expectations How do you figure out your risk tolerance What the hell is asset allocation, why it matters and how to figure out the right asset allocation for you Active vs passive funds How to pick an equity fund How to sort through the various styles of funds and how to include them in your portfolio Do's and don't when picking an active funds Growth vs dividend plans Once you have heard the conversation, you will have a framework on how to think about investing, why you need to invest, set goals and pick your first fund. Do check out PrimeInvestor for some insightful perspectives on investing, fund selection, portfolio construction by Vidya and her colleagues. You can also check out this LearnApp course on mutual funds. In part 2 of the conversation, we'll talk about the right way to pick debt funds, rebalancing and portfolio maintenance.
Stock Market Crashed Rona, unemployment, and fed pumping trillions into the market with their printers BRRRRRR Should your strategy change overall when markets are doing this? The market just an amazing bull run but the last two days have been a downward spiral and it looks like we’re about to drop even more. What should you do with your stocks? Since Feb, Markets have been volatile. In Mar, markets drop so much that it triggered circuit breaks in the market Circuit brakes are market volatility regulations which were put in place in 1987 when the market dropped 22.6% in a single day. That was known as the Black Monday. A second incident happned in 2010 when Dow jones went down over 9% in 10 minutes. And then subsequently recovered before the market close. A lot of lessons were learned about machine trading on that day. Level 1 - 7% drop - 15 min timeout Level 2 - 13% drop 15 timeout Level 3 - 20% drop - quits go home. We’re done for the day, everyone is just too panicked. Now the question is…is the market going up from here or is it going down? Should you do anything differently for you stocks when the market is going down like this? It depends on the type of investor you are. If you’re a trader with lots of leverage, I would not be holding margin positions as the market is dropping unless you’re shorting the market. But this talk is for long term investors so, good luck buddy; I suggest r/wallstreetbets to find others of your kind (I lurk there, yes...yes, I do...I'm not ashamed to admit it)...but check out r/bogleheads when you're ready Obiwan. One thing is for certain, generally speaking don’t sell into a market crash because you’re likely to panic and then try to buy back in at wrong prices. Psychology of Traders: When market drops, it create a panic which causes selling to occur - eventually there is a price where people buy…people think that it can’t go below here…and people buy in and they really load up…now then markets can drop even further…this is where the market had taken a breather and now it’s resuming it’s sell off. During this time, you shouldn’t load up, rather you should buy a little bit at a time..because the idea here is to buy around the bottom, not at the bottom. Your fav stocks are about to go on a sale again. Hold cash and wait for drops to buy into stocks that you already love…Add to your index positions. These market drops are the time when you should really load up and buy more shares. As market drops lower, an investor seeks to buy more of the quality assets they already own, in my case that’s SP500 index as a the majority holding (85% currently). Buying like this allows you to take advantage of market fear and buy your fav stock or index at really good prices. So, don’t panic and hold cash - look for opportunities to buy some more. Have a longer term outlook that is at minimum 5-10 years out - if not more (if not, my fave "FOREVER" outlook - where you hold forever and live off your stocks when you're ready - and I'm trying to get there wayyyyy before retirement). You’ll do just fine. If you’re at retirement age, you shouldn’t be playing in the stock market too much…but you already know that. Any 50+ years olds should have a well diversified BONDS, STOCKS, and REAL ESTATE portfolio to ride through the market craziness...actually, I have more videos coming SPECIFICALLY for people that are trying to retire well and not just GUN IT and make couple of multi millions like I'm trying to do. More on that later.

On this edition of the Crypto.IQ Daily Radio Show we do a deep dive market analysis. The price of Bitcoin (BTC) and major cryptocurrencies has been rising on average since the crash on February 24, and this morning most cryptocurrencies are in the green. We discuss the Ethereum Constantinople/St. Petersburg hard fork which should deploy tomorrow. Hear about how Cryptopia has 90.6 percent of customers’ funds, and how this has finally been revealed 1.5 months after the hack. It is unknown when customers will get their money back. Learn about how miners are making big money on empty blocks. We also discuss how the legal cannabis industry is experiencing banking problems, much like the crypto industry, and why this is the reason Bitcoin (BTC) is needed to preserve financial freedom.
Since Feb 26 in 2008, I’ve built my business without selling on Twitter. Um....what? I have no qualms about saying that Twitter is my home away from home. Without Twitter, I’m not sure where I’d be right now, to be honest.
Since Feb 5 is World Animal Reiki Day, I'll share a bit about celebrations happening this year!

Since Feb of 2011 I have had the opportunity to be part of teaching an advanced anger management class to inmates in a local jail. I consistently describe the experience as “the coolest thing in my life.” It has been a really amazing experience and I have learned a lot from it. I was lucky enough to be Jondi Whitis’ guest for the June episode of “eftTapFest” which is part of EFT Radio On-Line. In the conversation we talk about: What I have learned about teaching EFT by teaching it in a Jail What I have learned about creating a community to rally in support of one cause What I have learned about stretching myself What I have learned about crowd funding Even if you never intend to work with inmates, write a book, or lead a community of support, there is a lot you can learn in this conversation.
