| 6/24/26 | How the Tech and Corporate Layoff Trend is Shaping Early Retirement Conversations | Have you noticed a layoff trend among the tech giants and mega corporations? Meta laid off 8,000 employees (nearly 10% of its workforce, reported in May, 2026), Oracle with 21,000 over the course of a year (the firm's latest annual report shows), and of course, WalMart has conducted periodic workforce reductions. This has raised the question, what do individuals in their 50s or 60s do if they find themselves in this unpredictable situation? Can they find a new job? Should they retire early? What are their options? How can one be prepared for this? Matt, John and Isaac discuss what this AI-driven shift means for your career, wealth building, and long-term financial planning. We also compare the historic performance of major IPOs with the highly anticipated SpaceX public debut last week and we look at what history tells us about market volatility when a new Fed Chair takes the reins. Topics Discussed: ➡️ Career Transitions Later in Life: Financial planning considerations when facing unexpected employment changes. ➡️ Managing Financial Risk: The role of debt, liquidity, and diversification during periods of uncertainty. ➡️ Employer Stock Exposure: Evaluating concentration risk within compensation and retirement accounts. ➡️ IPO Trends: A look at historical outcomes of large IPOs and how results can vary widely. ➡️ Market Context: Observations from past market environments and leadership transitions.

| 6/17/26 | How Technology is Changing the Ways We Invest: Niche ETFs, Direct Indexing and the SpaceX IPO! | When what has been described as a “historic IPO” like SpaceX hits the market, the sheer volume of institutional and retail demand can influence short-term market dynamics. But as more everyday investors rely heavily on ETFs and mutual funds instead of individual stock transactions, how does that shift impact long-term market volatility? In this episode of The Market Moment, the guys break down the mechanics behind Elon Musk’s unique approach to the SpaceX rollout, the realities of institutional vs. retail allocations, and a fascinating listener question about the future of funds. They explore how technology and algorithmic trading trigger short-term market swings, why niche ETFs are exploding, and how tools like direct indexing are quietly helping investors transition back to custom, individual stock strategies. They also dive into the shifting economic landscape for the second half of the year, tracking a reported ~30% drop in oil prices, the local economic ripple effects of the World Cup in North America, and what to expect from the Federal Reserve's upcoming meeting under its new leadership. As discussed in the episode, market events such as IPOs and thematic investing strategies can involve significant uncertainty and short-term volatility. Topics Discussed: ➡️ The SpaceX Playbook: Breaking down the unique $135/share pricing, high retail allocations, and how the market reacted post-IPO. ➡️ The “Exodus” to Funds: How the massive shift from individual stocks to ETFs and mutual funds is altering trading dynamics. ➡️ The Tech & Volatility Link: Why modern algorithmic triggers and massive block fund trades create heightened short-term price swings. ➡️ Custom Portfolios & Direct Indexing: How emerging technology allows investors to capture the tax advantages of holding individual names without relying on traditional funds. ➡️ Global Economic Drivers: Navigating the deflationary impacts of falling oil prices and what the Fed's next move means for fixed income.

| 2/10/26 | What Should I Do in Periods of Heightened Volatility? | How should investors react when markets get volatile—and headlines get loud? In this episode of The Market Moment, Matt, John, and Lee break down what volatility really means, why it isn’t always a bad thing, and how long-term investors can stay disciplined when fear and greed start creeping in. The conversation covers why volatility is a normal part of investing, how emotional decision-making often causes more damage than market pullbacks, and why “staying the course” only works if your portfolio is built for your true risk tolerance. The team shares real-world examples—from tariff scares to market recoveries—to show how panic selling can cause investors to miss long-term gains. They also explore portfolio rebalancing at market highs, diversification beyond U.S. stocks, and why today’s shift from growth to value stocks may actually be a healthy sign for the broader market. From midterm election years to the January Barometer, the episode provides historical context without falling into market-timing traps. Key topics include: ➡️ What market volatility really means (and why it’s often misunderstood) ➡️ Fear vs. greed and how emotions impact investment decisions ➡️ Why staying invested matters more than timing the market ➡️ Rebalancing strategies during record market highs ➡️ Risk tolerance vs. risk capacity—knowing what you can truly handle ➡️ Midterm election years and historical market volatility ➡️ Diversifying beyond U.S. equities and across market sectors ➡️ Growth vs. value stocks and signs of a broadening market ➡️ Why ignoring market “noise” is critical for long-term success The episode wraps with a discussion on market leadership shifting away from the Mag 7, what that means for investors going forward, and why building a portfolio you can stick with—through good markets and bad—is the real key to long-term success.

| 2/4/26 | How Do I Build a Diversified Portfolio That Fits My Risk Tolerance? | How do you build an investment portfolio you can actually stick with—when markets get volatile and when they’re ripping higher? In this episode of The Market Moment, Matt, John, and Isaac break down what it really means to build a diversified portfolio that fits your true risk tolerance, not just the one you think you have during a bull market. From fear and greed to rebalancing discipline, the conversation digs into why portfolio construction is harder today than ever—even though access to investing has never been easier. The team shares real-world examples of market drawdowns, investor behavior, and why knowing why you own each investment matters more than chasing performance. They also explore how diversification goes far beyond “stocks vs. bonds,” touching on annuities, international equities, alternatives, commodities, and the recent volatility in gold and silver—and what those moves mean (and don’t mean) for long-term investors. Key topics include: ➡️ How to assess your real risk tolerance (and why most investors overestimate it) ➡️ Fear vs. greed and how emotions derail long-term plans ➡️ Why timing the market means being wrong twice ➡️ Rebalancing strategies—and how often is too often ➡️ Stocks vs. bonds vs. annuities: what role each can play ➡️ U.S. vs. international investing and sector diversification ➡️ Alternatives, private markets, and what to watch out for ➡️ Gold and silver volatility—and why perspective matters ➡️ Building a portfolio you can stick with in good times and bad The episode wraps with a timely discussion on recent moves in precious metals, why big price swings can test investor discipline, and how having a clear investment plan helps cut through the noise.

| 1/27/26 | What Does a Phased-Retirement Look Like? | Can you transition into retirement without walking away from purpose, income, or flexibility? In this episode of The Market Moment, Matt, Eli, and John explore the growing trend of phased retirement—and why it may be a smarter alternative to retiring “cold turkey.” Fresh off snowmageddon and fueled by very little sleep, the team dives into real-world retirement planning conversations they’re having with clients right now. From easing out of high-stress careers to managing market risk, health insurance, and early distribution rules, this episode unpacks what it actually takes to retire earlier—or more gradually—without making costly mistakes. Key topics include: ➡️ What phased retirement really means (and why it’s becoming more popular) ➡️ Retiring early vs. retiring with purpose ➡️ Fixed vs. variable expenses in retirement planning ➡️ Health insurance challenges before Medicare ➡️ The Rule of 55 and Rule of 72(t) explained ➡️ Why brokerage (non-qualified) accounts matter ➡️ Market expectations, risk tolerance, and planning for long time horizons ➡️ Gold, silver, Bitcoin, and patience in long-term investing The episode also touches on market history, investor behavior during strong bull markets, and why long-term planning has become more complex—even as access to investing has never been easier.

| 1/21/26 | Is Investing Easy? | Market volatility, geopolitical headlines, and nonstop news can make investing feel overwhelming — even when long-term fundamentals haven’t changed. In this week’s Market Moment, Matt and Lee unpack a sharp market sell-off driven by global headlines, investor sentiment, and geopolitical uncertainty. They discuss why markets reacted so strongly, what was really behind the “sell America” trade, and why short-term volatility is often a normal — though uncomfortable — part of investing. The conversation then shifts into a deeper discussion around one of the biggest challenges investors face today: investing feels easier than ever, yet managing investments well is harder than ever. Matt and Lee explain why access to investing has never been simpler, but building and sticking with the right portfolio requires discipline, planning, and emotional control. They also break down why comparing every portfolio to the S&P 500 can be misleading, how diversification plays a critical role in risk management, and why long-term planning should evolve as your financial situation changes. Key topics: ➡️ Market volatility and recent sell-offs ➡️ Geopolitical headlines and investor sentiment ➡️ Interest rates, treasuries, and mortgage impacts ➡️ Why the S&P 500 isn’t the right benchmark for most investors ➡️ Diversification, risk management, and portfolio construction ➡️ Investing psychology: fear, greed, and emotional discipline ➡️ Warren Buffett’s perspective on risk and preservation of capital ➡️ How AI and technology are changing investing and financial advice The Market Moment Headlines: ➡️ Global market reaction to geopolitical news ➡️ U.S. dollar, treasury, and crypto sell-offs ➡️ What to watch coming out of Davos 📊 Whether you’re just starting out or well into your financial journey, this episode highlights why long-term planning, diversification, and staying disciplined matter far more than reacting to headlines. And as always: consulting a financial planner can help you align your investments with your personal goals and risk tolerance. Enjoyed the episode?

In this week’s Market Moment, Matt, Isaac, and John break down the most common ways investors try to produce income from their portfolios — and the real pros, cons, and risks behind each approach. They discuss income annuities, dividend-paying stocks, covered call ETFs, real estate, and why taxes, risk tolerance, and planning matter far more than chasing high yields.
