About this episode
Colin and Blair discuss the emotional pitfalls investors face during market downturns and the importance of strategy over instinct.
In this episode of The Free Lunch Podcast, Colin and Blair walk through a real conversation many investors are having right now: “Should we get out before it gets worse?” The instinct is understandable. But the plan often becomes selling when markets are down, waiting, and then buying back in when things feel better. That’s not strategy, it's emotion, and it’s one of the fastest ways to derail long-term returns.
