The market had hope on Monday. By Friday it was gone. Matt and Garrett dig into what actually happened — and why understanding the difference between noise and news has never mattered more for your portfolio.
This week they don't agree on oil. Matt thinks the volatility is largely a nothing burger for long-term investors. Garrett isn't so sure. That conversation is worth a listen.
In the Planning Room: the pension-or-lump-sum decision. It's permanent, it's consequential, and most people don't feel prepared for it. Matt and Garrett break down the math, the tradeoffs, and the questions you should be asking before you make the call.
