Justin Dyer and Mena Hanna make the case for voting at the ballot box, not with your portfolio. Mena walks through the midterm \"scouting report\" and why 2026, a midterm year, has gone the other way so far, while Justin explains why 16 elections are too few to build a decision on. They rank the forces that actually move markets (interest rates, inflation, geopolitics, energy and AI), explain why midterms work more like a front-office reshuffle than a game-changer, and look back at a year when a new war, an energy shock and rising rates couldn't stop markets from climbing a wall of worry. Then Mena asks Justin the billion-dollar question: what is he doing with his own money as Election Day approaches? His answer: nothing different, because the plan was built for every path.\nConnect with Us\nCall or text us: 626-862-0355\nWebsite: https://www.athletefamilyoffice.com/?utm_source=awm-capital&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=ep-275-midterms-money&utm_content=show-notes\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc1NxpK21N1vKWEExC45YEA\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/awmcapital/\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/awmcapital/\nX: https://twitter.com/awmcapital\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/awmcapital/\nChapters\n[00:00] Preview: Why Justin invests his own money exactly the way AWM recommends, and why your vote shouldn't steer your portfolio.\n[00:25] Intro: Midterms and your money, and why we vote at the ballot box, not with the portfolio.\n[02:23] The Midterm Scouting Report: Why midterm years have historically lagged, and how 2026 has broken the pattern so far.\n[03:08] Sixteen At-Bats: Why a small sample can't carry an investment decision.\n[04:02] Robustness Over FOMO: How much confidence a decision deserves, from election years to chasing the next SpaceX.\n[06:13] The Year After: Post-midterm trends, and why they're probably noise for a...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/zkR8IXleN4cEQw2JTi7I_iJS5GwRQeULdDFqrEYl4EQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS82NzU5/YzQxZTBiZjAwNTky/MTU5OWQzZTk5NzFl/YjNjZS53ZWJw.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
