How To Invest Smart in Uncertain Times with Miles Clark (Ep. 58)

How To Invest Smart in Uncertain Times with Miles Clark (Ep. 58)

A 50-basis-point rate cut has shaken up the market — so what does that mean for your investments? 

With 11-12 rate hikes since March 2020 and a rapidly evolving economic landscape, uncertainty looms. The key to staying ahead lies in understanding how different assets respond to these shifts. 

This week on The Millionaire Next Door, Rob Curtiss teams up with Miles Clark from Nasdaq Dorsey Wright to reveal the strategies and tools you need to navigate the current economic landscape with confidence.

Key Highlights:

  • The Impact of Rate Cuts: While rate cuts stimulate the economy, the effect varies across asset classes — fixed-income tends to benefit, while equities may face mixed outcomes depending on economic strength
  • Technical Analysis & Relative Strength: Learn how Dorsey Wright’s point-and-figure charting can help you identify market leaders, much like selecting top athletes for a fantasy team
  • Market Participation & Seasonality: The months of November and December are typically strong, and broadening market participation is a positive sign for 2024
  • Investment Discipline: A systematic, rules-based approach becomes essential during periods of uncertainty, particularly with an election on the horizon. Sticking to a disciplined strategy can help investors focus on long-term success, filtering out short-term noise
  • And much more!
