Today, I have the pleasure of welcoming Ph.D. Alex Murguia to the show. Alex is the CEO of Retirement Researcher and Managing Director of McLean Asset Management, an investment advisory firm based in Tysons, Virginia. He has been published in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, speaks at several financial conferences, and founded a financial planning software which helps retirees learn which retirement income strategies best fit their personalized style.

On today's show, we discuss:

1) What actually is market volatility from an academic perspective?

2) What are some "market drivers" and is it worth trying to gauge them?

3) How much does the market move in absolute terms in order to our net gain or loss at the end of the year?

4) What are some biases we all have as investors (loss aversion, anchoring, survivorship, and action bias)?
