New or Noise is a vlog/podcast that looks at current topics and helps you decide if they are newsworthy for your investments. Should you be concerned? Or, should you tune out the noise and not worry?

However, we are looking to practice what we preach, and to help investors to rationally and critically analyze emotion-laden stories.
