Ignore the Noise and Buy With Both Hands

Ignore the Noise and Buy With Both Hands

I once had a loaded gun pulled on me. (Actually, six guns were drawn. I’ll explain more later.)

When you’re looking down the barrel of a loaded gun, all rational thought goes out the window. All you’re thinking is: “How do I survive this?”

I’ve felt this way one other time in my life… When I owned stocks that got crushed lower.

I’m always shocked at how similar those feelings are.

As far as my “lizard” brain is concerned, imminent death and financial ruin are the same.

Of course, they’re not the same… But when market volatility is extreme, my rational brain can stop working.

I think that’s true for most folks.

It’s easy to say: “Buy when there is blood on the streets.” But what do you do when it’s your blood?

And I think that’s why most folks rarely buy on stock market weakness.

The “lizard” brain takes over, and the only thought is “survive.” I saw this same pattern repeat itself when I worked on Wall Street.

I managed retail money across three different decades and would see investors make the same mistake of selling at the absolute worst time.

I can’t blame them.

We’re wired to “overvalue” fear. This works well for most other areas of our lives. But it’s a horrible strategy for making money from financial assets.

To be a consistent winner in the investment game, you need to do the exact opposite of what everyone else is doing.

And that’s exactly what I urged you to do last week. And it is exactly what I am urging you to do again this week.

Just buy. Ignore the noise and just buy. You can buy bitcoin. You can buy Solana. You can buy the S&P 500 or the Nasdaq. You will make money.

I’ll tell you again – right here, right now – this pullback is just another buying opportunity.
