In a year of economic whiplash, staying invested is easier said than done, particularly when the market drops 20% in ten days. But that’s when the real opportunities appear.

In this special 50th episode, Richard Taylor and James Boyle are back in the trenches to reflect on client behaviour during turbulent times, the emotional traps that investors fall into and the importance of holding your nerve when the pressure is on.

Richard and James break down how to navigate volatility with a clear head and a smart strategy. You’ll hear their advice on how to:

· Stay invested during downturnsand why resisting the urge to panic can preserve your wealth and even unlock powerful tax advantages.

· Use tax-loss harvesting to your advantage including a real client example where staying the course led to over $20,000 in carry forward losses to offset future gains.

· Avoid emotional investing traps and what the infamous (but false) “dead investor” myth still gets right about behaviour and market performance.

· Watch the economic signals that matter like May’s surprising rally and why upcoming jobs data could shape Fed decisions and market sentiment.
