About this listen

 In this episode, we break down the recent escalation of conflict with Iran and why history suggests that markets often prioritize long-term fundamentals over geopolitical shocks. We examine past data showing that while initial pullbacks of 5% to 10% are common during war, the S&P 500 has historically recovered its losses in less than 40 days on average. Finally, we discuss why tuning out the "noise" of the 24-hour news cycle is your best defense against making emotional, high-stakes decisions that could derail your retirement strategy.
