What is the "Behavior Gap" in Investing?
Manage episode 428076553 series 2370904
Welcome to the Market Moment! This week, Matt, John and Lee discuss what's called "the behavior gap" which is the difference between an individual investor and someone who is hired to invest. It turns out, individual investors, those who invest for themselves personally, do worse in their portfolios.
One of the biggest reasons is emotion, and another one is trying to "time the market" which tends to involve late or old information. You can't really time the market!
The guys also discuss the Fed, and Matt poses the question, "what SHOULD the Fed do?"
