  Speaker 1: A lot of people think podcasts about work are boring,
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: and sure they definitely can be, but understanding of professionals
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: routine shows us how they achieve their success little by little,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: day after day. It's like banking with P and C Bank.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: It might seem boring to safe plan and make calculated
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: decisions with your bank, but keeping your money boring is
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: what helps you live or more happily fulfilled life. P
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: and C Bank Brilliantly Boring since eighteen sixty five. Brilliantly

  Speaker 2: Let's talk about what do you think the biggest investing
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: mistake of a year was? For me, it was two things.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Number One, anyone who missed out on that April run.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you're ever going to have a
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: better opportunity, Like when I go back and look, because
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: that Friday I did a good day in New York.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Shots to them and they were like which stocks were bad?
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: To invest in them? Like all the qualities were great
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: boys at that time. For the first time in the
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: long maybe since COVID did you have such a chance
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: to almost have a guarantee win. So I think any
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: capital that you did not deploy in April when we
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: were screaming to buy is A is probably the biggest
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: mistake of the year.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: I have that exact thing in my notes said not
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: taking advantage of the down trends. I started in January though,
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: when people felt, oh my gosh, what is happening and
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: video is not real? Here comes dec it's not real.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: The whole AI thing isn't real. And we saw all
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: of these companies drop. That was the first one. Then
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: April got compounded with the quote unquote Liberation Day, and
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: then we had a class and it was like it
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: goes back to the original question of like stick to
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: the plan, because I remember in April when we had
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: the class, I'm like, look, let's just stick to the plan, right,
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: Let's let's find some indexes to invest in, let's find
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: some ETFs investing, and let's build from there. Right those
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: indexes and those ETFs are up two hundred three hundred
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: percent right now, easily.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Just because it was like we know what the plan is.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's the moment that's happened, implement the plan, let's
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: watch it happen. Those are up three hundred percent. And
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: then you got the companies that were inside those ETFs
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: that were going to lead it to the AMDs of
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: the world, the nvideos of the world, MI crime so
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: the world. And so now you got the ETF running
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: and you got the individual equities. I actually did a
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: leverage ETF, was the first time I did that in
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: a semiconductors because I believed in the space so much.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: That's up over nine hundred percent. Sticking to that plan,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: but taking advantage of opportunities. What do we do in November? Right,
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: there was a five percent pullback last month. People were scared,
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, this AI thing is and it's only
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: five percent. Five percent pullback. Another opportunity, another opportunity. Somebody
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: shout to somebody in the chat. They said, yeah, SOXL
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: was at eight dollars. It was at eight dollars. I
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: bought a twenty eight dollars call. So imagine what that
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: looks like. Right, So it's about taking advantage of those moments.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: When you see those moments happening, it's like, oh, you waited,
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: you waited, you waited. You waited here it is what
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: are you doing? You got the script, stick to it.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: And the second mistake, if I can give one for
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: every investment trader, I think you need to hunt for
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: what the next sector is that is going to rise
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: outside of quantum like all of your investing prowess. We
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: have the gentleman from black Rock come on and he
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: kind of gave you, like the three tier plan. If
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: you're not spending all of your time figuring out which
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: company is going to boom next in twenty seven, you
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: are going to be sadly mistaken because now we're getting
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: into a space I don't know if we're ever go
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: back to when value investing is ever needed or popular again.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: You need to hunt for the next company that will
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: have a meteoric rise, that are sustainable, that will be
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: life changing to the economy. And also too, they're going
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: to be a company that is currently dominating their sector
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: now in terms of market share and mind share. So
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: when we think of this chip race, we think in video,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: and we think the smartphone, we think of Apple. You
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: need to search high and low for the next company
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: that is about to break out in twenty seven or
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: twenty eight for a long period of time.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, right, shout out to the chat. Yes, XLU spider
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: ticker ETF did split to the one. XLK also split
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: to the one. So yeah, so if you had one share,
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: that now turns into two shares. If you had ten shares,
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: now you have twenty, and that goes as well for
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: options contracts. If you had ten, now you have twenty.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: So those two to one splitch just be mindful. I
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: know it was kind of weird when you open your
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: broker's account and you had an option and the contracts double,
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: but the money is like, you're down more than you
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: ever thought. It's just because the options they haven't adjusted.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: The business ass haven't adjusted. Somebody act. Have I ever
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: had to lose in trade? Yeah? I've had to lose
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: in trade. I think I was on here.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: I talked about CAPA.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: And I talked about where my entry was and where
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: I was going to exit if it got to that point.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: It got to that point and it's falling ever sense,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: So yeah, I've had to lose in trade.
• 5:12
