Watch Out for the Post-Election Spin From Media

Today, Paul and Evan talk about an article that tells investors to watch out after the election. It claims that markets are overly optimistic and if you really want to know what’s coming you have to look back to 2016. Paul is skeptical of claims like these and counters the whole premise of the article by also looking back to 2016. The reality is that no one knows what’s going to happen, pundits are paid to make predictions, and markets are optimistic because they are resilient. Be on the lookout for the post-election spin from the media and don’t fall for the news. Later in the episode, Evan talks about the surprised and emotional reactions from many Americans, and the two advisors talk briefly about the 5 stages of grief.
