Ep 13: Twitchy Markets & Tariff Shock: The Biggest Market Swing in History

Markets just experienced one of the most dramatic intraday reversals in history — and at the center of it all? Tariffs. In this episode, we dive into how sudden trade policy shifts, particularly around President Trump’s tariff announcements, are sending shockwaves through investor sentiment and market pricing.

We’ll break down what tariffs actually are, who really pays for them, and why reacting to market drops after the fact can be more harmful than helpful. If you’ve been feeling whiplashed by the headlines, this one’s for you.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

  • What a tariff really is and who actually pays it.
  • Why prices go up for consumers and how that can spark a recession.
  • Defining stagflation and why it's a nightmare for markets.
  • Why reacting to the market often backfires—and what to do instead.
  • Why staying invested gives you the edge.
  • How markets recover from crises.
  • Why putting all your money in U.S. stocks is risky.
