1353 | The Mag 7 and You

In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl tackles the hype and fear swirling around the “Magnificent Seven” stocks and the temptation to either go all-in or get out entirely. He explains why a disciplined investor doesn’t chase hot names—or panic when a single stock grows to 7.5 percent of the S&P 500. Instead, they rebalance based on allocation, not predictions.

A clear, grounded take on investing like an adult.
