Shownotes Transcript
Stocks are struggling, recession fears are ramping up, and investors are starting to worry. The stock market has been falling for weeks, major indexes are down, and new (rapidly changing) tariffs are only making things worse. But what does this actually mean for your investments? Is this just a stock market correction, or could real estate soon suffer the same fate?
Today, we’re breaking down what’s going on in the US economy: why stocks are tanking, how the housing market could react, and what smart investors are doing right now. Should you sell, hold, or shift your stocks into real estate? Dave shares a big move he just made with his own portfolio and why he’s rethinking his investment strategy heading into a potential recession.
With so much uncertainty, you need to know what actually matters (and what doesn’t) for your portfolio. Will falling stock prices inadvertently trigger a real estate boom? Could lower inflation and interest rate cuts save the market? And most importantly—what should you do next? We can’t give you financial advice, but Dave is sharing what he’s doing with his money in this episode.
