This last Saturday, Brian Wiley and Jeremiah Bates dug deep into the real-world impact of tariff policy, investor behavior, and why emotional risk tolerance matters as much as the numbers. The market feels chaotic—but as the guys explain, it's not just the economy reacting—it's the people. And like a game of musical chairs, the longer the music plays, the more irrational the behavior becomes!

We open up with sharp commentary on market overreactions tied to tariffs and trade drama. From there, it zooms in on the behavioral side of investing: fear, confirmation bias, and the mental loops that drive emotional decisions. Brian and Jeremiah explain why many investors—especially retirees—feel stuck and how a simple framework like the "bucket strategy" can bring clarity.

There’s also discussion around overexposure to stocks like Nvidia or Tesla, and why it’s easy to get caught chasing performance when a clear plan is missing. Real listener calls—like a business owner seeing reshoring effects from tariffs—round out the conversation with timely, ground-level perspective.
